Plateau Killings Is Pure Terrorism, Not Farmer-Herder Clash
Former Minister of Youth and Sports, Solomon Dalung, says the killings in Bokkos LGA of Plateau State are acts of terrorism and not the consequence of an age-long farmer-herder crisis.
Dalung, while speaking on Monday when he appeared on the ‘Morning Show’, a programme on Arise TV, said there is more to the latest killings than meets the eye.
“One major issue on the Plateau is mislabelling criminals based on ethnic identities or community relations.
“The violence here isn’t a farmer-herder conflict; it’s terrorism. These groups have an enclave similar to those in the north-east, where they steal cattle, seize land and establish a parallel government in the bush,” he said.
