Fulani Herdsmen Have Declared A War On Nigeria – Eastern Mandate Union (EMU)

Communiqué Issued By The Eastern Mandate Union (EMU) On The Level Of Insecurity And Menace Of Fulani Herdsmen In Nigeria
 
*Dr. Arthur Nwankwo,
Chancellor, Eastern Mandate Union   
*Background to the Communiqué:
Following the recent carnage by Fulani herdsmen in Plateau State in which over 200 persons were slaughtered in cold blood; and growing level of insecurity in the country, the Eastern Mandate Union convoked an emergency meeting last Monday, July 2, 2018, to review the state of the country and the ethnic cleansing and jihad that is currently sweeping across the Middle Belt region of the country.
We have on several occasions pointed out that Nigeria is an aberration created by a colonial fiat to feed its insatiable economic appetite. Regrettably, since political independence, Nigeria has failed to weave a nation out of the welter of ethnicities that make up Nigeria to the extent that today Nigeria has become emblematic of a failed state capacious only in the wastage of human life. Today in Nigeria, human life has been subordinated to the life of a cow.
