Former Aviation Minister, Femi Fani-Kayode, on Thursday,
said the false narrative that Northerners are responsible for terrorism in the
Southeast is dead and buried.
Fani-Kayode was reacting to remarks by Governor Charles
Soludo of Anambra State on those responsible for kidnapping in the Southeast.
Soludo had said 99.9 percent of those responsible for
kidnapping and terrorizing the Southeast are Igbos and not Fulanis.
He disclosed this while addressing indigenes of Anambra
State in the United States, US, during a town hall meeting in Maryland.
Before now, groups like the Indigenous People of Biafra and
the Eastern Security Network had claimed that Fulani and Northerners disguising
as herders were responsible for most of the kidnapping activities taking place
in the South East.
IPOB had claimed that these armed herders hide in the bushes
and forests from where they attack communities in the Southeast.
However, Soludo dismissed these notions, stressing that
Igbos are behind the terrorism acts in the Southeast.
Posting on X, Fani-Kayode wrote: “Gov. Charles Soludo of
Anambra state has said that 99.9% of killings and kidnappings that take place
in the East are perpetuated by Igbos and not Fulanis.
“I guess that the false narrative that Northerners are
responsible for all the terrorism in the East is finally dead and buried.
Thanks be to God.”
