Former presidential aide to ex-President Goodluck Jonathan, Reno Omokri, has hinted on the way out of the incessant attacks on Benue communities by suspected Fulani herdsmen militia, IDOMA VOICE reports.
According to the renowned author, the only way to ensure lasting peace in the state is to get someone like popular Yoruba freedom fighter, Sunday Adeyemo alias Sunday Igboho, in Benue state.
Omokri who was reacting to the recent wave of killings across Benue state stressed that President Muhammadu Buhari will always take side with the killer Fulani herdsmen, but having someone of the caliber of Sunday Igboho in the Benue valley will be a big boost to the war against Fulani banditry and invasion in Benue state.
He wrote; “Except Benue gets their own Sunday Igboho, these almost daily attacks that have characterised #BenueUnderAttack will continue to happen. If Benue people clash with cows, General Buhari will ALWAYS side with cows. Benue needs an Igboho that will side with them. In Benue, we read about people who fight at universities and who fight their brothers. Can these people not channel their energies into protecting their communities? Look at Igboho. He is not huge or hefty. Yet, when they hear his name, they shiver like Shenzi shivers when the name Mufasa is mentioned!
