President Mohammadu Buhari has blamed the recent clashes
between herdsmen and farmers on the unrest in Mali and Libya, making it
possible for militants within these countries to infiltrate the herdsmen, and
also for the easy passage of weapons.
The President who was represented by Vice President Yemi
Osinbajo at the graduation ceremony of Senior Executive Course (SEC) 38 of the
National Institute for Policy and Strategic Studies (NIPSS), Kuru, near Jos,
said there was evidence to show the infiltration of militants into the folds of
Nigerian herders, adding that militants running away with light and heavy arms
from the troubled countries had settled among Nigerian herders but warned that
criminal violence in whatever form would not be tolerated.
