Fulani Herdsmen Resume Attacks
August 8, 2012 – Fulani Herdsmen Resume Attacks
Just 1 month after the brutal attack that led to the death of retired Brig General Sylvester K. Iruh on the long bridge along Lagos-Ibadan Expressway, the Fulani criminal gang struck again on Monday night.
On Monday August 6, 2012, an Okada rider was attacked with dagger while giving a ride to some Fulanis.
His intestines bulged out of his stomach in the brutal attack and the doctors are currently working tirelessly to save him at Lagos State University Teaching hospital.
The victim identified as Owolabi Habib, gave a ride to two Fulani herdsmen on Monday night from Berger to the cattle market adjacent the long bridge.
While Owolabi is being treated at the Emergency section of the hospital, his family members are seriously praying for him to survive.
There had been several attacks on travellers on that bridge in the recent past.
According to motorists, corpses of Fulani brutal attack victims are often seen around the area.
God have mercy!

Wow! It’s unfuctunate that even Lagos State is biggining to expirience a similar minace which is already on high alarm in the Northern part of country. Just as the scenario is unfolding about the happening in the country, this is simply tantamount to what Chinua Achibe posit that, “when things fall apart the centre cannot hold.” I just hope that Lagos-Ogun State government will launch out their security measure to cumbat the ongoing minace befalling the duo State. If nothing is done about this, the life of the Duo state will be solitary, nastic, brutish and short, whereby Man to Man violent for state of protection will emarged. I pray that God will kindle His wrarth on the Boko haram sponsorer and it’s agent, by letting their plan to fell on them and their childrens’ children IJN. Peace of God I speak unto you Nigerian’s.
