Bring Back Our Girls activist, Aisha Yesufu, has condemned reported chasing out of Fulani herdsmen and killing of dozens of their cows by the Nnamdi Kanu’s Eastern Security Network, ESN.
Recall that the leader of the Indigenous People of Biafra, IPOB, Nnamdi Kanu, had shared the news of the security outfit’s invasion of the camp of the herdsmen in Isiukwuato, Abia State.
In a video shared by the IPOB leader, the ESN operatives were seen burning houses and cows allegedly belonging to the Fulani herdsmen.
“Video of men at work last night across all the towns and villages of the old Bende Division, especially Isiukwuato,” Kanu captioned the video shared on his Facebook page.
“ESN has commenced the combing of parts of Isiukwuato forests last night and engagement with the enemy is ongoing and will continue until they no longer present a threat to our communities along that axis…” he added, issuing a direct warning to the herders.
Reacting in a tweet on Sunday, Aisha described the situation as highly unacceptable, warning that no one has a monopoly of violence.
This is absolutely not acceptable. We cannot have security outfits taking laws into their hands & maiming, killing & destroying properties. This is not acceptable.
