Nigeria police fail to arrest fulani herders that kill and rape Akwa Ibom indigenes but fast to arrest village heads when the indigenes took law into their handbags of failure to arrest fulani terrorists parading as herdsmen.

This is the APC government some people are still supporting and willing to vote for even when kidnapping is still ongoing in the north and other regions

The fulanis use their cows for conquest. Open your eyes and smell the coffee.
