Nobody Can Defeat Fulanis In War – Former VC ABU

Former Vice-Chancellor of the Ahmadu Bello University, Zaria, Prof Ango Abdullah said the Fulanis can defend themselves more than anyone else in this country.

Abdullahi said the constitution of the Federal Republic of Nigeria provides for the free movement of citizens across the country.

The professor also described the Fulani herdsmen as businessmen who can move freely to access the resources they require for their business.

“I am a Fulani man my ancestors were in the bush, but we find reasons to settle in one place. I have cows and anytime they cause damage I pay compensation and so that is the way it will be.

“Look, the Fulanis can defend themselves more than anyone else in this country. More than anyone else in this country, the Fulani man can always defend himself. Go and read the diary of Lord Lugard, who created this country.

Go and read what he said about the Fulanis. In fact, without our efforts to restrain the Fulanis, things would not have been easy for many communities.

No community can defend itself against the Fulanis if they want to fight. It is known sociologically and historically; nobody can fight them if they want to fight.

They are in the millions in West Africa and they can always mobilise themselves to defend their people anywhere in West Africa
