Plateau Killings: “We Remain Solid And Unshaken” – Fulani Group
STATEMENT BY THE FULANI NATIONALITY MOVEMENT, (FUNAM)
–
Our attention has been drawn to the series of campaigns being waged against the FULANI NATIONALITY following the killings in PLATEAU where some civilians who have been tormenting the FULANI nation were justifiable hacked down;
Why is it convenient for Nigerians to condemn the killings of Birom but fail to condemn the killings of Fulani people?
We frown at the conscious attempts to demonize the FULANI nation by the media and their collaborators;
We wish to make the following categorical statements on the Plateau incidence:
1) The killings in Barkin Ladi was motivated by previous killings of FULANI men and women by Birom youths in collaboration with certain minority ethnic groups in PLATEAU. We hereby justify this retaliatory attacks and warn that we shall continue to defend ourselves and uphold the FULANI heritage now and in the future. Let it be known that the Fulani Special Force coordinated the attacks;
For the avoidance of doubt, our heritage is that ANY ATTACK ON A SINGLE FULANI IS AN ATTACK ON ALL. ANY OF SUCH ATTACKS MUST BE COUNTERED WITH TRIPLE MEASURE.
2) That apart from stealing hundreds of cows belonging to FULANI, these criminal elements also set ablaze several houses belonging to peaceful FULANI natives across the entire territories in Barkin Ladi and Plateau.
3)That we have said it several times that Plateau is an indigenous territory of the FULANI people. We are the first to settle in Plateau-Benue axis thousands of years ago. We shall take and posses every inch of this land; A conscious attempt to rewrite history and distort, manipulate or destroy our past will be resisted with all the might at our disposal.
4) That there is a clear agenda to divide Nigeria and exterminate the FULANI people. We are long aware of this plot. We call on FULANI all over Africa to prepare for this inevitable war and set our people on an offensive path rather than being weaklings that choose a defensive strategy in warfare.
5) We have said it over and over, that Nigeria is the only inhertrance we have in Africa and anywhere in the world. This land belongs to us, from Sokoto to the banks of the Atlantic Ocean. This was the destiny bestowed on Uthman Dan Fodio which would have been fulfilled since 1816 if not for the obstruction of this great assignment by the British. It is no longer time to play the ostrish. Our men are waiting. We are eager to fight. We are boiling with the zeal to actualize our dream; enough of double dealing and ambivalence by FULANI political leaders who unfortunately think the FULANI can only take back what belongs to us through appeasement and elections destined to reflect cultural values antithetical to the preachings of Uthman Dan Fodio.
6) We warn that nothing will be able to save those raising their voices against us and Allah. Nothing will be left behind, from the East, West and Middle Belt except those who accept the creation of Allah and the leadership place of Fulani in fulfilling this destiny. Since this irresponsible Western notion of democracy was imposed, the Fulani have been shortchanged and maligned. The Middle-Belt, the West and the East should be prepared. We are already here.
7) Let the Birom and the ethnic minority invaders in the entire Middle Belt leave our territory or be prepared to accept our ways of live. It is time for them to savour their wounds. It is just the beginning. Many more will come and nothing can stop us.
8) Insha Allah, we shall take this battle across the sea, on the land, in the air, on the mountains, in every territory currently occupied by the Kafirs. This is our position. This is our destiny. For those who think they can stop or continue to conspire against us, we wish them good luck.
Signed

To you Badu Salimu, you are on a failed mission because the earth is the Lord’s and the fulness there of. The land has been given to the lovers of the Most High God. Jeshovah is His name
You are as ignorant as a child. Otherwise you would know who really owns the very ground on which you sit—me! I shall fill your houses with Bibles and people praying in the name of Jesus. I will fill your streets with churches and preachers. And you girl children whom you disregard will teach you the Gospel.
t appears it’s more important to be called a Muslim, it’s almost a thing of pride in some quarters, than it’s important to talk about the judgement, heaven, and how to gain it. The God of heaven is Holy, righteous, does not condone sin and is no respecter of persons. His Holiness is not defined by human standard, neither will His judgement be by people’s emotions, philosophy or doctrines of men or democratic opinion.
The force of man can never work out the righteousness of a Holy God. The devil rules by fear and force, but God almighty with love and peace.
So, my question is; how does killing count for holiness, or is killing of innocent people allowed in Islam as a means of gaining heaven in the name of jihad? To even know that the people being killed are innocent people is pathetic.
Considering the modus operandi of the devil which is to kill, steal, and destroy, to whose benefit, is it? When people who could have out of the mercy of God through a second chance can be repentant and become heaven’s candidate are prematurely sent to an early grave, and probably hell. if all you are doing is in the name of Allah and Islam, am tempted to ask you, what is the will of Allah?
The purpose of any faith is to save men from destruction, if now all you want to do in the name Islam and Allah is destroy, kill and burn down buildings.
How does this portray Islam as a religion, it has become a religion where the believers have relegated their god to the background, where men feel they have the power to act on behalf of God, where human life has no value, god can only be god when he is allowed to be God by Himself, otherwise he has no relevance.
A religion that is said to be a religion of peace, has become barbaric, intolerant of others, has no regard for the rule of law and regard for life, riddled with unforgiveness, bitterness and brutality. Look at all the Islamic / Arab nations, it makes one wonder if there are virtues in Islam that anyone will want to copy,
When you think of how much it takes to purchase an Ak-47, and other weapon that has been procured to do havoc, not to talk of the human energy and time being put into planning evil, if that same volume of money was put together to train and equip the herdsman to become more proficient in cattle rearing through collaboration with some government to create ranches, this killing machine will be turned into a money generating enterprise, that all will embrace. Think of the economic wealth this will create for Fulani herdsmen, their children and their children down the line, so if anybody is thinking of marginalizing and looking down on the Fulani race, it will be you Badu and the so called Northern Fulani elite who has always wanted to hold the people down in perpetual poverty, while your children are sent to big time school, so Islamic religion is only a tool in your hand.
Even if you can fight the Jihad so that you conquer Nigeria and dip the Quran in the ocean, so what? When you die, what will happen to your soul in the face of the Quranic verses below,
The question is! Do you have a soul? If you do how do you know? prove it? What value do you attach to it? How can the soul be saved from going to hell? In the face of these verses, does holiness count? If it does by whose standards?
There is not one of you but shall approach it. (2) That is a fixed ordinance of thy Lord. Then we shall rescue those who are kept from evil, and leave the evil-doers crouching there.” (Qur’an 19:71, 72)
{ (2) Another translation reads: “There is not one of you who shall not pass through the confines of Hell …” (N.J. Dwood The Koran, Penguin Books Ltd. Middlesex 1959). Still another translation reads: “No one is there of you who shall not go down unto it …” (J.M. Rodwell The Koran, J.M. Dent and Sons London 1950).}
“Everyone of you will go to perdition, for this is the absolute duty of thy Lord”.
Doesn’t this border you? In spite of your killings and Jihad, hell is your end, is it worth all the wahala, I am not writing this to score a point or win an argument, verify what you think you know, don’t fight for dung.
Ignorance they say re-enforces failure, and courage is the door between bondage and knowledge, but pride is the biggest stumbling block in Islam, may God grant you courage to seek knowledge. wisdom is the application of knowledge, wisdom comes through the fear of God.
