The Minister of Information and Culture, Lai Mohammed has disclosed that the Federal Government was quietly working towards bringing an end to the persistent Fulani herdsmen/farmers crises across the country.
Mohammed made the disclosure on Sunday during a special prayer for the stability of the nation by an Islamic group, Saadatul Abadiyyah Organisation of Nigeria in Abeokuta, the Ogun State Capital.
According to Mohammed, President Muhammadu Buhari had also constituted a panel of inquiry to look into the recent alleged Fulani attacks, adding that Nigerians would soon feel the effects of the silent efforts being made by the government.
Mohammed said, “the President did speak immediately these things happened, to the extent of setting up a panel of enquiry. But the government is going to do more than that.
“These communal clashes are very delicate issues, very emotional and what the government is doing is working very silently to ensure that people who used to live together before without any conflict will go back to that. In few weeks from now, we will begin to see the result of that.”
Recall that there has been persistent clashes between suspected Fulani herdsmen and farmers across the country with States like Benue, Plateau, and Taraba as the worst hit.
