He maintained that the current killings of innocents Nigerians in some parts of the country shows that there are Fulani Militants who are Boko Haram in a sort of disguise.

He therefore called on President Buhari to take the issue of security seriously as the recent killings in Benue, Enugu, Adamawa, Plateau and Kaduna State is more than just Fulani attackers rather, “Boko Haram by extension”.

In the same veil, he mentioned the security situation in Michika town of Adamawa state where before the onslaught of Boko Haram insurgents the weekly market used to be one day for all but it has been divided into two days due to distrust and suspicion among returnees of the town.

He said the development has degenerated to having two days currently for the weekly market, One day for the Muslim folks and another day for Christian adding that it can only happened under a Government that lacks seriousness.

Barrister Ahmed Ali Gulak, explained that why there is such a growing threats was because the state governments in the country are insensitive to the peoples plight adding that if the government is serious it would have nipped the situation at it early stage.

“The market do not belong to any tribe or religious affiliations but it belong to people who come to buy and sell, so if government is serious, it should not allow that to happen.

He said Government does not mean road construction and seating in government house to disturb the masses with siren adding that governance is a very serious business and protection of lives and property, peace and unity.

“This a time bomb that may explode any moment from now if something is not done urgently, whether Christian or Muslim we are one Nigerians.” He said.
