The Indigenous People of Biafra, IPOB has threatened to send all Fulani killer herdsmen out of the South-East.
Naija News had reported earlier that Miyetti Allah Kautal Hore has demanded the arrest of criminals killing Fulani herders in the South-East part of the country.
In an interview with The PUNCH on Thursday, April 29, spokesman for the group, Saleh Alhassan, urged security agencies to go after those killing herders indiscriminately.
Alhassan claimed that 50 herders have been killed in the South-East in the last month, adding that Miyetti Allah would avenge the death of those members.
Reacting to the death threats, IPOB leader, Mazi Nnamdi Kanu, said Biafra members would go after every killer Fulani herdsmen terrorists in the Southeast.
Kanu sternly warned Alhassan and his people that the implementation of their threat would be the last of herdsmen in the Southeast. He said: “Miyetti Allah, hear this: IPOB is not South-East Governors that you can threaten & get away with. We are the same IPOB that collapsed the #Zoo.
“We are after every killer herdsman. We are after you Fulani terrorists and murderers masquerading as herdsmen.
“If you implement this your THREAT, it shall be your last. We no longer believe in turning the other cheek, it is now blood for blood and you will lose.”
