For almost two decades now, Zamfara State has been in the news; sadly, for all the wrong reasons. If it is not politicised sharia law today, it is lead poison tomorrow, which killed children and adults; or the dog-eat-dog combustible political rivalry of the elites. The only culprit of the sharia implementation is poor Jengebe, who stole one cow and was made to bear the insignia for the sins of all Zamfara people.
The massacre also reinforced another kind of war among the state’s influential personalities. To begin with, what’s the offence of these villagers that led to their merciless killing? For standing up to bandits in defence of their communities. That fateful night of 4th to 5th January, the bandits were fleeing from a military operation with about 3,000 rustled cattle and in the process visited mayhem on anybody and anything on their way; killed, maimed, and set houses on fire.
After the Bukkuyum and Anka attacks, Governor Matawalle’s Commissioner of Information, Ibrahim Dosara told the press “that we have a lot of informants getting information to those people . The moment you strategise, the moment the enemies also strategise”. How could he be so sure? He who alleges, as the saying goes, must provide facts. Besides as a government official, why not share intelligence, through the governor to those in charge of Zamfara military operation, than come on air to allege.
After Jengebe, has stealing stopped? I doubt if its implementation which led to religious riots across Northern states and death of hundreds, made us better Muslims, nor did it sanitise the society. And of course, it did not bring any intangible wealth to Zamfara state.
