…Police didn’t lead the gang –CP
From ABDULGAFAR ALABELEWE, Kaduna
Even as the Kaduna State Police Commissioner, CP Olufemi Adenaike yesterday debunked allegations that the attack on Dogon Dawa village where 24 people were killed last Saturday was led by a police officer, leaders of the Fulani community from the area have claimed responsibility for the attack, saying it was a reprisal from their members.
The leaders of the Fulani herdsmen who were at the state police headquarters in Kaduna yesterday claimed responsibility for the Dogon Dawa attack, explaining that “it was a reprisal for the arrest, humiliation and killing of our Fulani herdsmen by the vigilance group from the village.”
The Fulani leaders whose names were not given to the press for security reasons maintained that, “the Fulani people have been accused severally of committing all kinds of atrocities by the vigilance group, especially now that Fulani people are returning from long time grazing from places like Kwara, Niger and Kogi State.
“And in Birnin/Gwari, there have been problems of robbery and all sort of vices, such as cow theft. It was on that basis that the community established the vigilance group to ensure crime-free community.
“It is this vigilance group that is now killing our people who go about their lawful businesses accusing them of robbery.
“The vigilance group of Dogon Dawa indiscriminately kill our men calling them armed robbers; they also steal our cattles, so our men carried out a revenge on them,” the leader stated without remorse.
The Fulani leaders who were at the police headquarters to voluntarily give information of the last Sunday attack, however, stated that it was attempt of their members to salvage themselves from the “so-called” vigilance group that led to the reprisal attacks.
Meanwhile, the Kaduna State Police Commissioner, CP Olufemi Adenaike has debunked in the strongest term that, contrary to the report that one of his officers led the team of the attackers, saying his men rather made frantic efforts at addressing the situation.
The CP who paraded the Fulani leaders at the police command whom he said came to voluntarily give vital information on the attack alongside the accused police officers, further informed that the police had since commenced thorough investigation on the attack and will definitely fish out the perpetrators of the dastardly act.
In the same vein, the Police Officer in charge of the Kuyello Police Outpost, ASP Musa Ashero, who was accused of leading the attackers spoke to newsmen at the press conference organised by the CP, saying, his job was to protect lives and property of the citizens and not to lead attackers to take lives of people.
According to him, “I have served the police for about 32 years and about to retire, so why will I engage in an activity that will tarnish my image and efforts put into the police force for these years?
“When the vigilance group arrested the four alleged armed robbers, I made efforts to retrieve the men into the police custody so that we can interrogate them properly. The vigilance group resisted my efforts and vehemently took them to Dogon Dawa village, when they overpowered our efforts.
“When the attack started on Sunday, I informed the Divisional Police Officer of the local government (Birnin Gwari), CSP Abu Birchi Abubakar who immediately called the Mobile police to rush to the scene but they said they had no fuel in their car, so I personally gave them N2000 to buy fuel but getting close to the village, they said the firing was too much so they had to stay back,” he explained.

See you @the top
Repraisal attack indeed. Brothers killing brothers, what a mess Islam must have made this nation-a religion of shame and loss.
set of animals in human skin. fulani herdsmen. Blood shall never depart from your domain, cursed people.
Wht a pity
Police is regularly promoting violence and killings these days. The IGP should purge the system of those criminals
The heart of man…when would we start looking up and stop crawling in the mud? What is revenge when your soul starves? Jesus is lord of all!
9ja police.
so u wont do ur job because firing was 2much,why are u den a police man
northern people they are all like cows
Ifediba can u be a policeman?
D Nig. police is a very STUPID organization. Hw cn a whole CP be involved in d sudden turn of d situation by inviting som stupid fulani 2 claim responsibility? It’s a pity indeed. I hop ds is nt d beginning of d end of dis issue. God Is there!
Fulani is our problem in Nigeria now. There is no doubt about the fact that their way of life have been affected for living with animals in the bush but they should equally know that they are human beings and not cows or goats.
Wat a pity
Nemesis everywhere. Islamists against muslims. I dey laugh
Open field cattle feeding and arable crop farming do not mix. All these confrontations between Fulani cattle herders and farmers are are competion for land use and the Government and Ministry of Agriculture is aware of it but have refused to do some thing about
resulting in the loss of hundreds of lives over the years. To allow Fulani cattle men to roam across Nigeria in search of grazing fields which arable famers have planted their crops is madness and must be stopped. At the same time you can not for obvious
reasons stop cattlemen from raising animals whoe value on the dinning table is a must for the health of the nation. The answer to this is a practice of morden agriculture in an enclosure and production of feeds for the cattle, which in itself is a big plus in the economy of the nation. Dr. M.I Okpara established Ogbudu Cattle ranch and it started to yield good results before the civil war destroyed it and know body
in Nigeria has thought wise to reactivate those noble
vetures of yesteryears and exand them for the good
nation. All we are singing now is about the killings and no thought for remeady.
Here this: the police is there to protect us. Firing was too much so they stayed back while the people they are paid to protect are mowed down. What a load of crap!
Now the accusers and complianants are in the same family(muslim .org)
A open confession of crime. I think the police should get these leaders apprehended and placed in custody. No one takes laws into his hands, not even by killing suspects not to talk of innocent helpless citizens.
This is terbl,just bcos firing was 2 much,well train police$mopol fail 2 save life ,sir there’s skeltn in ur…..
Let them killed them self.hacha hacha
Let him answer wether he can be a police man. By the way does he know the number of men going to the scene and the type of arms they were carrying? Let us always try to encourage the effort of the police to enable them face challenges ahead of them.
The Fulanis are bcomin too hostile evrywhr in d cntry nw, even in d south-east dey ra not afraid of anybody, infact almost all cases of road block in d s-e, s-s now ar perpetrated by d fulanis n dey hav severally attacked villages in Nike in Enugu, killed peopl in Uzouwani, Ozalla nd nearly kill a guy in Opi dis week all in d Nsukka area of Enugu state, some yrs back they killd a woman at her in Iyonu, Ishielu, Ebonyi state which made d villagers 2 retaliate n killed as many Fulanis n dia cows as dey set dia eyes upon, n d Fulanis in Abakaliki can neva dream of killin anybody becoz dey know dat d ppl ar ready 2kill 10 Fulanis 4 one dia ppl dey kill. The FG should also stop d fulanis from carryin weapons around
Policemen are public servants, but whenever there is allegation against them no one care to investigate before meting out punishment on them. I am suggesting that the matter be investigated properly and if found to be false, the Emir of Birnin Gwari be sanction for falsehood and deformation of character. May be he had demanded the policeman to do one wrong or the other but he refused, that is why he alleged him of leading attack against his people. May God save the Police force.
What a shameful statement by a so called police officer.
I blame all this on Government and Police for allowing Fulani herdsmen carrying Daggers and Arrows freely without disturbance but if its other tribes or Igbo man they find knife in their hand the person must be arrested and term an arm rubber.I dont even know who gave the fulanis the authorisation in carrying arms wherever they go maybe it was during those years Housa people were ruling Nigeria they enacted the laws and empowering fulanis to carry weapon especially Dagger,Arrows etc
Can you imagine, “the firing was too much they had to stay back”. when it comes to innocent citizens, the will know how to muscle them. Is annoying, at this time and age Nigeria Police is still given flimsy excuses such as this.
The fulani herdsman is a time bomb waiting to explode. I wonder why the FG is scared to take decisive action on this band of marauding killers masquerading as cattle rearers. Such spineless and ostrich-like government scared to take charge. Maybe when people all over the country begin to carry out reprisals and the country goes up in flames, then the necessary attention will be given. The North is now hades. Pity.
It was a pity that live were lost the ASP commit there was no fuel get to the scene he committed twenty thousand naira (#2000) which was a good sportman ship we all can see how police is poorly founded.Nevertheless what are the proactive or mitigation measure the police took befor those claimed fulani robbers met their un timely death.Really stories were told on these cattle rearer they have turn cattle business to robbry business God help NIGERIA.
Which investigation again after the fulani leaders has given vital information about the incident .Arrest them too!.
We hav to be careful we are on the way to ANARCHY . GEJ WAKE UP!!!
If Nigerians are sincere to themselves and have good security outfit, then why all these so-called vigilante who will in disguise, be killing innocent citizens, raping and stealing from the citizens they are supposed to protect. Taking into account all the evil these vigilance group has perpetrated so far in this country, it becomes an onus to the govt to sanction any community in the Federation who will intrust the security of the lives and properties of the citizens into the hands of one bloody or groups of bloody civilians instead of trained security personnel. It’s high time govt should put an end to this jungle justice and extra judicial killings going on in this country, before it gets to the point of no return or remedy.
Trash and blatant lias, all effort is on gear to protect the police from the atrocities. We are duly informed about the o/c who’s name was repeatedly mentioned in the attack, why can’t Gov’t squeeze him and get more information on the way he carryout the attack? only for them to gather innocent people and force them to say what they don’t want to say in the name of cover up. God is not sleeping.
So the Filani leaders came out to tell the Police that they are responsible for the killing of 24 fellow Nigerians for whatever reason and they walked away free, in Jonathan’s Nigeria.
this is rubbish statement by police,how many days the fulani man didt claim responsibility until when the police went and conived with the criminal fulani man that was arested years ago and they promised him that they will released him if he did what they told him to do,that is why he is doing such .nigeria we are in a big mess with all this attitude of police in nigeria.ALMIGHTY GOD will surely dealt with that police man that lead what ever weather religion attack or arm robbery.GOD is alive.
When the police want to cover up crime they said they are investigating. What are you investigating? Group of vampires of Fulani herdsmen voluntary came to the station and claimed responsibility for the gruesome murder of 24 in Kaduna. The evidence on ground has nipped to bud the so called investigation, but enough for the police to exploit in arresting the culprits of dastardly acts.
It is really a shame for police to have reported that the firing was so much and that they had to stay back. Why are the police? The arms given to them are there for fancy? Were the police not given adequate training on how to maneuver they way in a situation of this nature and get the Fulani vampires tracked down. Police has ulterior motives for not tracking down the Fulani extremists down. Basically this report, that firing was so much has indicted the police so much and had made them answerable for the killings. In a nutshell they (police) aided and abetted the crime of barbaric killings of 24 in Kaduna. If our government is serious those police drafted to the scene of event has questions to answer.
Nigerian police should be up and doing and strive to face the reality of fire they were employed for and disregard the policy of bribe collection which has renegade them so much to the background. May God bless Nigerians and deliver us from all this extra judicial killings, amen.
Very soon we the east will form our own boko haram.and ours shall be worst.
Government should be more responsible to its citizens, lawlessness is on the rise.
Let the Fulanis in the entire country be reorientated & checkmated.
this nonsense of the year by police
The police obviously led this masacre, the people were killed by gun shots not knives or arrows! The truth as usual is been hidden. The innocent people were coming out of the mosque early morning of that fateful day. They were not the vigilante group members. The police not having fuel in their vehicle and later scared of gun-fire are lame excuses! Anachy will not help Nigeria. It is not only in the north that we have insecurity. The government has failed in Nigeria completely. I rest my case.
The police indirectly led the attack..1st an officer incharge of a police post was unable to stop a vigilante group from taking the law into their hands.2ndly a function operational vehicle of the police in this period of security alert was without fuel and 3rdly the police that tried to abandon their duty on the excuse that there was no fuel is finally telling Nigerians that they failed to perform their legitimate duty because some lawless bunch were carrying out their lawlessness.If the oga doesn’t know what to say he should have kept quiet rather than insult the sensibility of Nigerians.
May the souls of the victims rest in perfect peace. If you are not in the system you may not know anything about the system, police is poorly funded, the salary is too meagre for the rank and file personels! Can you go and sacrified your life on nothing to boast of? Let the F G N wake up to the plight of the uniform carriers of this country.
Gang-up against the igbos during the biafran war of freedom will hunt u ppl till ages..u allied wt the fulanis/hausa n fought against a just cos,ask the beron of plateau state,ask the tivs wat hpnd on sunday morning..the yoruba will soon see them come thru kwara state soonest..general john gowon ran to london,theophilous danjuma hiding in abuja..its the begining until u apologise to igbos..i hv to tell u: thr was a country….middle-beltan,goodmorning

cows are really cows! to hell with Fulani and Hausas…..
We re tired of excuses by police. Whenever there is such lame excuse, the DPO and such policemen shd be sacked immediately so they will stop giving flimsy excuses when there is a matter requiring urgent response
The people involved in the genocide reported themselves to the police then why all the long grammer by the CP, they should be arrested and tried for mass killing, except if the people killed are not human beings. I am really afraid of this country.
May God help us in this country called-Nigeria. May God punish those who kill innocent pple coming from their place of worship in the name of represal. Fulani pple are evil and have spirit of unforgiveness.
If it was in Jos , it would have been said that fulanis are being hated. So they are doing it in other places… Sen Ningi(Bauchi) should advocate for grazing researve for them in Dogon dawa. Useless people!
Are you saying that the Police is not aware that Fulani people carry gun about. Do they use gun to control cow? Who is fooling who? Police is a problem in this country. Change the IGP again if you really want security in this country. A new IGP will dispossess the Fulani people of their guns
l hope our muslim brothers must have rest their case against christians, now that the truth is unveil
Good comments and analysis, keep it up guys.
Why all these killing? We all live in fear. No peace, no love, no trust. Our lives are now dependent on those that hunt us. Oh God, come to the rescue of your people…
Nigerians,keep your fingers crossed.lets see what will happen to the Fulani leaders.What is already in the palms does not wait for mirror.mr ASP and co,we wait for open trial.This alone can exonerate you.
THERE IS TOO MUCH BLOOD FLOWING IN THE LAND, WHO CAN SAVE US FROM THIS.
Are we safe in dis country at all!
if d police can rescue citizens in time like dis, wat is d essence. First wen police came to d scene of d killing of UNIPORT student dey could’nt intervene. Now dsame police said”the firing was too much so they had to stay back”. Pls wat is d work of a police man
Its a shame hw the police have con’t the shw of shame and their inefficiency in tackling security issues.this was also seen in d recent kilings of uniport 4 in aluu .they were busy talking frm both sides of their mouth and contrdictng themselves,whn 1 of d suspt said a police man was actualy invd in d beating.they’ll alws deny fact since there ar no video evidence.its a pity.
prince when making a comment rmmber not generalised thanks
Is it a true story that some fulani herdsmen went to police station to confess that they killed people on reprisal attack? Nigeria is no longer different from Somalia following the overthrow of President Barre.. One is wondering if the fulanis are not being treated with kid gloves in this country. They are known to be killing people in the North and a number of times they have been linked to killings in southern political zones. Are we really safe in this country? I hope the fulanis are not trying to resume jihad. in this country, The government should take action in finding a solution. The rate fulanis are killing people may provoke anarchy if the people decide to attack them in the area they graze their cattle and .kill people with reckless abandon.
Leave them to de kill themselves there abeg to go and lose your valuable to your family. if you go and fight them and die no body will remember you o. if you get ear hear
Thank u Dom,de police led de attacked,how dare de vigilante more powerful than trained officers? why is de police normally complain lack of fuel in de face of security chalanges? where are those fulanis dat claim responsibility? The Truth would come out sooner or latter.
This is the meaning of a failed state – where the government is no longer capable to provide even the minimal protection for the lives of the citizens and not to talk of their properties. The fact that the police was present at the lyncing of the uniport students and were aware of the detension of the alleged 4 fulani robbers and couldnot take them into detension which led to ripresal attack and the consequent loss of 24 lives in kaduna says it all. But follow nigerians, let us not be fooled easily,these inert policemen are the same that shoot innocent citizens on daily basis for N50 . They are those that periodically clamp into jail hundreds of igbo youths just for belonging to an association.Nigeria is no longer comatose, nigeria is completely dead.
Can a Boko Haram be deemed innocent. That un-named fulani leader deserved a National Merit Award at least for being truthful. The North must pay the price of wickedness
What a shame,how can some policemen say there was no fuel and after giving 2000naria later say they stayed back b’coz the gun battle was too much,they should be sack,they don’t worth being a policeman.
The whole situation still bores down on the fact that we in lawless country. How can a villagers killed people that were arrested by the policemen? That is to tell the whole world that police is not in charge. Now, what efforts did police put in place to arrest the situation from the villagers? Police should always make themselve relevant by be in control of security situation. The reason for this lapses could not be far fetched, because police had made itself an object of ridicule before the villagers by collecting miserable 20 naira from them. By so doing, they have sold their dignity. Fulani men have no right to take laws into their hands and they came out boldly to confess in the public that killed the innocent people. However, it must be investigated whether it is true that those Fulanis actually stole before they were killed. Above all, govt must be responsible for the security of the people they are made to govern by providing adequate security for them.
SO NO ONE CAN TAME AND CIVILIZE THE FULANI. THEY USE TO BLAME THE CHRISTIANS IN JOS FOR ALL THEIR ATTROCITIES, NOW THEY ARE EVEN BOLD ENOUGH TO GO TO POLICE HQTRS, WHAT AUDACITY! DID THE POLICE LET THOSE WHO CONFESSED TO THE MULTIPLE CRIMES GO “”PENDING INVESTIGATIONS?” HOW WILL ONE SET OF PEOPLE ARROGATE TO THEMSELVES THE RIGHT TO KILL AND DESTROY ALL OF US? NSA IS THEIR SON, SO LET HIM SNEAK AROUND AND FIND WAYS TO COVER HIS TRIBES MEN UP.
we all kw tht fulani herdsmen are criminals, they steal, kill and disposes innocent people of their belongings. take for instance, the killing of a general in berger area of Lagos by this criminals, if u have ever witnessed a robbery scene on the highway, u’ll definitely kw that most of this robberies are done by fulanis.
