Yesterday, February 14, 2018, one Efe, the head of a vigilante group in a village near Benin City was shot to death execution-style by a member of the Nigerian Armed Forces. That's not the end of the story. The tragic event was exacerbated when the apprehended headsmen who wrecked havoc on their farmlands were released by the Military Personnel who shot Efe to death.
About a week ago, February 07, 2018, I wrote an essay attached to the story below, titled Unraveling the Military Factor in the Herders/Farmers Clashes, wherein I raised an alarm about the well-documented incidents of military involvement in herders/farmers clashes all over Nigeria. And there was only one response from a friend who I didn't know I have, Olufemi Adeleye.
Today, it is a different story. Efe was a target because he had the audacity to organize and to repel the incursions of herders into their farmlands. His death is an indictment of the Nigerian Armed Forces and a sure proof of their overt support of the Fulani Cattle Herders in their conquering mission.

IT IS. THE BUHARI FEDERAL GOVERNMENT IS OUT FOR FORCEFUL OCCUPATION OF TERRITORIES. THEY ARE SAYING GIVE THE FULANI'S YOUR LAND OR FACE DEATH AT DECLINE. SANCO ESQ.
