This news was designed to promote the Fulani herdsmen amid the many bad news they've gotten lately.


The news media see the people as their kids. Fourth arm of govt my foot!

They're lucky they met Fulani herders not Fulani herdsmen. The story for no sexy at all.

Are you on the same page with Fulani asslicking terrible T-Pain

Where Are The Cows? Is Evans A Herdsman?'


When Funke Olakurin, daughter of Afenifere leader, Pa Reuben Fasoranti was murdered instead of Bola Tinubu to make sure that the perpetrators were brought to book, he ended up making fun of the death of the young lady by turning everything into tribalism by showing his hates for Igbos.


Tinubu has never spoken against the deadly activities of Fulani herdsmen across the country

https://twitter.com/i/status/1150428613751320577


Mrs Olakunrin died of gunshot wounds in July 2019 after her vehicle was attacked by armed men, suspected to be marauding Fulani bandits whose violent activities had reached a frightening level across the southwest states.


Those arrested suspects include Lawal Mazaje, 40, from Felele area of Kogi State; Adamu Adamu, 50, from Jada area of Adamawa State; Mohammed Usman, 26, from Illela area of Sokoto State and Auwal Abubakar, 25, from Shinkafi area of Zamfara State....

However, the leader of the team, identified only as Tambaya, and three others are yet to be found.

Tambaya has been declared wanted by the police and he is said to be capable of communicating in Hausa, Fulfude and Pidgin English.

All herdsmen are killers.
You heard it here first.
Daily meat kee u there likesay the meat na free.
If that's the excuse to kill people cuz of meat why not inform ur Fulani herdsmen to ban the sale of cow meat to the South, after all u can supply to your brothers in Niger and Chad.
What say you?
All Fulani herdsmen are killers, they killed yesterday, they will kill today and tomorrow.
Take that to the bank, Mr. Fulani herdsmen PRO
BTW I am a Northerner.

Reflect7:


That does not mean, you BIGOT, that all, or most herdsmen are killers.

Do you know there are over 4 MILLION Fulani herdsmen in Nigeria?

I repeat, 99.9% of Fulani herdsmen, that group of people that supply 250 million of you your daily meat, shaki, and pomo, are INNOCENT, HARDWORKING MEN.

So stop being a BIGOT based on what you saw in the news.

Nigeria is a joke in all ramifications, spoiling the igbos. Soon, they will soon make some weak angel igbos, think that ylthis is how life is suppose to be.


What happened to the maintenance money, instead of building rubbish elephant projects. The one on ground, are not being maintained.

---The train is very old and rickety---no wonder it broke down---

Those are the REAL herders.

The kidnappers and the killers have no SINGLE cow!!!!!!

They are mainly rebels from Libya, down the Sahel that infiltrated Nigeria causing mayhem.

Are you aware that 99.9% of Fulani herdsmen have never hurt a single soul in their lives?

The way you people look at them, no one would believe they are the same people that provide your daily meat and shaki - all 250 million of you.




99.9% indeed u must be from mars cheesy Is it because of this little kindness they showed these travellers out of thousands of cases of fulaniherdsmen atrocities all over west africa?

What do you mean? Trains break down every day all over the world.

There was no crash. engers were all safe.

They even met Fulani herders, expecting to be slaughtered, only to be shown love. So there is a silver lining in that cloud, too.

If you people want a perfect society where nothing unfortunate happens, go to heaven. The thing you are looking for, you will see it there.
You got no joy

Herdsmen are now being helpful or are they the new police on the forests?

Meanwhile, the train looks like a rejected product of the West.





Very sad to see this is the region where they got the money to build standard trains in the north and west.

This January,I boarded this same train..the experience was horrible...I regretted it ....from Abuja to Warri ,First your ticket was validated..and U were told to go n look for anywhere to sit...the reception was over filled...the people sitting outside or squatting were 5times the amount in the reception area,no chairs, no cover from the sun..noise,sun and dust.. thankfully there was no rain that day.
Secondly.. the train arrived than an hour late..,no apologies. Then an announcement was made that coach 1and 4 were bad ..and they have been removed ,if U bought tickets in coach 1 which is suppose to be the VIP section,U will now be in coach 2..that how all the coaches were re-numbered..but for those in coach 4.. look for anywhere to sit...that was how I was tossed up n down with my luggage till I luckily found a seat that was not bought by anyone..The journey started 2 hours behind schedule.
The train was obviously faulty from the onset, because it refused to pick up speed..finally broken down just a few miles after we left station...they got it running again after about 2mins ...thus began a series of stops n repairs..the train was virtually crawling...I lost count of how many times it stopped in the forest middle of nowhere.
We finally got to Warri around 3am..guess what the station was busy like it was day time ,sellers of food n drinks everywhere,cabs waiting to pick up engers at exorbitant prices...I concluded right there n then that this was a regular trip for the train arriving late ..it was always arriving late otherwise this night market won't exist here.
I made a few friends, we told stories and complained about Nigeria till dawn when we left the station,dem born me for Warri ..nothing go make me leave that station 3am in the night,no be only your valuables U fit loss..U fit loose your life ... ironically that was my first train ride
....na to gather money for flight..Aero dey do 75k.. 1hr trip

Sorry for my typos

"Must they complete the journey by train"?

Trekking is good for the body, especially that fat man he needs to shed weight.

Good gracious.

What's the difference between Fulani herders and Fulani herdsmen?

Both mean the same thing!

Herders is used when they do something good. Herdsmen is used when they are on rampage grin

Tomorrow another news will come out that "suspected herdsmen" that nobody has ever seen before are killing and kidnapping people and everybody will gobble it down. People are not asking how these herdsmen have been so elusive for over a decade. How fast can they move on foot with a herd of cattle that they disappear without a trace after committing their heinous acts? Media does so much in conditioning the minds of people without them knowing it. I'm not saying they're not evil murderous Fulani bandits out there but are they the same as the people herding cattle? I highly doubt it

Train breaks down. Someone need to be sacked.

Is it not possible for trains to have 2 engines incase of situations like this. That would be a brilliant idea, considering the type of quack trains we are use to buying.
