Kogi Killings: Herdsmen’s Way Of Showing Gratitude To Gov Bello – Omokri

An aide to former President Goodluck Jonathan, Reno Omokri, has described the recent Killings in Kogi State as Fulani Herdsmen’s way of saying thank you to Governor Yahaya Bello. 
Omokri said the killings were a show of gratitude to Governor Bello for donating 15,000 hectares of land to the prowling herdsmen for the establishment of a cattle colony in Kogi.
The WHISTLER recalls that over 30 people have been reported killed in separate attacks on Dekina and Omala local governments in the state allegedly by suspected Fulani herdsmen.
The Killings started not too long after Governor Bello offered the said amount of land for the creation of cattle colony in Kogi.
While reacting to the killings on Wednesday, Omokri said: “Governors who want to know how herdsmen will show their gratitude if given land for cattle colony only have to look at Kogi where Yahaya Bello gave them 15,000 hectares.
“Last week they showed gratitude by killing 25 people. Three days ago, they said thank you by killing 10 more!
“As Winston Churchill said “An Appeaser Is One Who Feeds a Crocodile, Hoping It Will Eat Him Last.” Yahaya Bello the appeaser has found out that the crocodile is not waiting to eat him last. It is eating him and Kogi state first!” he said.
