Benue crisis: Herdsmen bigger than you – VeryDarkMan knocks Nigerian Govt

 Nigerian critic, VeryDarkMan has faulted President Bola
Tinubu’s position on the killing of over 200 people in Benue State.

 

Over 200 people were reportedly burnt alive in one of the
latest herdsmen attacks in Yelwata community of Guma Local Government Area of
Benue State.

 

The incident, which has attracted global condemnation, has
continued to garner reactions across the country.

 

Condemning the killing of innocent people in Benue, Pope
Leo, who was the first to speak about the incident, described it as a “terrible
massacre” and called for justice.

 

Speaking after the Pope’s condemnation, Nigeria’s President,
Tinubu directed the Benue government to dialogue with the attackers.

 

Reacting to the Tinubu’s statement, VeryDarkMan claimed that
the herdsmen are “way bigger than the President”.

 

While criticising the call for dialogue and reconciliation
by the President, the activist accused the Nigerian government and security
agencies of knowing more about the attackers.

 

“Even from President Tinubu’s press release, you will know
that these herdsmen are not done yet with Benue people. President Bola Ahmed
Tinubu said they should arrest the suspects and persecute them right? In that
same press release he said this is time for Governor Alia to act as a state man
and immediately lead the process of dialogue and reconciliation that will bring
back peace.

 

“You want to dialogue with those that are burning people
alive, people with barbaric ways. This is to tell you that they are even bigger
than the President. That’s just the truth. Don’t let anybody deceive you, and
this is not anything about politics or wanting to say negative things about
Tinubu’s regime, no. They are way bigger than him, bigger than APC, PDP, and
everybody. They are way bigger.

 

“It will be clowning if the DG of DSS and IG of Police will
tell me that they didn’t know what is going on or what has been going on in
Benue. It will be clowning if the Chief of Defense Staff, Army Staff will tell
me that they don’t know what is going on. The reason why anybody is reacting
now is because I have to go to show the video. A lot of you are used to the
news of Benue killing. You are already used to the news and that’s what scares
me most. The killing of 200 people just passed like that, it didn’t trend and
no one talked about it. That’s why I went there, and now everyone is reacting.

 

“It will be clowning if NSA, police, Army will tell me they
don’t know about it. Did you know how those people entered that place? They
came with gallons of fuel. When they open the door, they pour the fuel and
light it up. So where did all those with gallons of fuel pass through? Not just
that, they had AK’s (guns) with them.

 

“It’s just about protest. Every farmer in Benue needs to go
and get a gun with a license. It’s bigger than what the government can come and
intervene at this point. Unless Benue people have what to protect themselves
with, they can do nothing,” he stated.

 

DAILY POST reports that VeryDarkMan on Sunday joined Benue
youths to protest in Makurdi, the state capital.
