I JOINED OTHERS IN SEEKING CLARIFICATION OF THE IDENTITY OF THOSE FARMERS CARRYING AK47. . ARE THEY FROM PLATEAU, OR FROM WHICH STATE?


 Hmmmmm!

We are living in interesting times with many revelations. The other day the security invited Dr Mailafia for interrogation to clarify his interview on the identity of his informants on those causing insecurity in Nigeria. 

Sheikh Gumi went to the forests and bush to meet bandits and kidnappers who bore arms and no one has invited him as if the security are not interested in knowing the identity of the bandits .

The other day Garba Shehu declared that farmers should seek permission before going to their farms . 

The Gov of Bauchi has defended arms bearing by herdsmen .

Our Defence minister has declared those without means of defending themselves as cowards and urged citizens to defend themselves .

Now our Gov is reported as saying farmers also bear AK 47 Guns. 

I join others in seeking clarification of the identity of those farmers. Are they from Plateau , or from which state?

We know AK47 are expensive

and majority of Plateau farmers struggle to purchase fertilizer.

So is it the farmers that can barely afford fertilizer that can purchase those expensive weapons ? Or is it that our Gov who also doubles as the Chairman of northern Governors was referring to farmers from other parts of the north ? We need more details or clarification please.
