Residents of Plateau State and the Miyyeti Allah Cattle Breeders Association of Nigeria are currently in a war of words after gunmen carried out a midnight raid on Te’egbe community in the Bassa Local Government Area of the state in which no fewer than 11 persons were murdered.
Reacting to the incident, the Irigwe Development Association described the latest attack as part of a grand plot by herdsmen to push the Irigwe people out of their ancestral land.But the state chapter of MACBAN said the allegation against its members concerning the latest killings at Te’egbe was a mere expression of hatred towards the herders.
“The motive of these attackers is not far from the fact that they want to push us out and claim our lands for grazing. Our neighbouring villages to Kaduna have been displaced and our people have since relocated. He called on security agencies to arrest the perpetrators of the dastardly act. However, the state chapter of MACBAN condemned the allegation that herdsmen were behind the Friday attack on Te’egbe.
Sad
This same style of killing and burning houses points to a sinister plan of ethnic cleansing. It's more worrying seeing Security operatives employing same. 🤔
