Senate President Dr Saraki Demands For An End To Herdsmen Attack And Violence In The Country

Dr. Abubakar Bukola Saraki, has called for an end to the incessant herdsmen attack in some part of the country. Dr Saraki made the call today while speaking at the Senate Plenary session. He urged the Chairman of the Senate Committee on Agriculture, to fast-track the execution of the report  of the Senate Public Hearing aimed at addressing the herdsmen crisis.

Immediately after plenary, Saraki took to his official social media pages on Twitter and Facebook to update Nigerians on the development, saying that:  “It is important that the violence attributed to herdsmen is addressed and curbed to ensure the safety, well-being and unity of the people and the country.”

Many will recall that in recent weeks, there have been attacks on communities by individuals said to be Fulani herdsmen. With violence occurring in Ibadan in the South-Western State of Oyo, Enugu in the South-East, and Agatu, Benue State in the North-Central, violence between herdsmen and communities is becoming more prevalent
