Nyiam, a retired Colonel, who is now a human rights activist was a guest on ARISE News where he said Nigerians should take this development seriously as according to him, what is happening to the Hausas in Zamfara state will happen to citizens in the south.

The southwestern states in the country have been witnessing increased cases of kidnapping and violent attacks in recent times with the Ondo State Governor Rotimi Akeredolu issuing an ultimatum to the Fulani herders to vacate forest reserves in the state.

“The President himself had openly said that these people coming in are foreigners. Governor El-rufai himself also gave indication if you are the president of a country and foreigners are coming in to intimidate your own people and to rape your own people, I would have thought that the Commander-in-chief would be the last to accept that.

“General Muhammadu Buhari was my boss, the General Officer Commanding when I was commanding a unit under him. He went against Shagari to defend Nigerian interest against Chadians.

“In one of the briefings, when he was briefing us he openly told us that his family, most of his family are from Niger and that he is a Nigerian officer and that he owes allegiance to Nigeria and I admired Buhari then, that a man whose family is partially from the Niger Republic and yet is loyal to Nigeria, this was against all the pressure given by other people that Shagari should pull out and allow the Chadians have their way, General Buhari refused.

“So why is Buhari now so different, I think the answer to that maybe his wife may answer it because the wife has been battling those who have been holding the president hostage. The President is no more General Muhammadu Buhari some of us knew who was a patriot.

“At the moment those who are the handlers of General Muhammadu Buhari are only answerable to the Fulani Worldwide interest and it’s a danger to our security and any Nigerian who does not take this seriously will see that what is happening to the Hausas in Zamfara will happen to us in the South.’
