Tafida, during the Eid-el Kabir sermon, issued the warning as he lamented the terror unleashed by armed herdsmen who have allegedly been killing, kidnapping, and raping residents.
The Emir of Muri Empire, Abbas Tafida has given 30 days ultimatum to armed herdsmen to leave the forests in Taraba State or face consequences. He stated that the people had warmly accepted the Fulani but did not expect such treatment as payback from the herders. He warned that, if anyone is kidnapped from his emirate subsequently, armed youths will besiege the forest and kill any Fulani man in sight irrespective of his occupation.
Police at a time caught a district head conniving with kidnappers and they gave him bail, he had the audacity to go back to his district and the youths did nothing. “From now on, anyone caught conniving with kidnappers, we will kill him and his family members. Police should be warned! We have respect for them but when next they arrest someone conniving with kidnappers and they let the person go free, we will also arm the youth to protect the citizens.
