Minister of Interior Abdulrahman Dambazau |
In Nigeria the Federal
Government has expressed concern over recent reports that Boko Haram terrorists
have taken advantage of the incessant conflicts between the Fulani herdsmen and
sedentary farmers to further their horrendous attacks and killing of innocent
Nigerians.
Minister of
Interior, Lieutenant Geneneral Abdulrahman Dambazau retired, who made this known
at a strategic stakeholder's meeting on the pastoralists and sedentary farmer
conflict in Nigeria in Abuja said government was worried that the conflicts in
various parts of the nation have had grave implication to the country's
internal security.
Dambazau said
the effect of this has been loss of lives and property, dislocation of people
and communities, disruption of socio-economic activity and threat to the
integrity and peaceful coexistence of the Nigerian state.
Permanent
Secretary of Interior Ministry, Bassey Akpanyung, declaring the meeting open
said the country had lost too many lives to these sporadic attacks and that it
was imperative to works as a group in finding a lasting solution to the
conflict.
