A socio-political group, Southern and Middle Belt Alliance (SAMBA), has demanded the immediate eviction of Fulanis from 102 communities in Plateau State. SAMBA has also asked Plateau State governor, Simon Lalong to recover 102 communities allegedly annexed by armed Fulani herdsmen in the state. SAMBA, in a statement signed by its spokesperson, Rwang Pam Jnr. on Sunday, decried what it called "the continuing invasion of Plateau communities by Fulani militia since 2001". "Government should uphold justice for the people of the state who have suffered from Fulani land grabbing and other crimes for many years," he said. SAMBA claimed that four local government areas of Barikin-Ladi, Bokkos, Riyom and Bassa were the worst affected by the activities of Fulani militia, which started in 2001. |
