The President, Muhammadu Buhari, has charged state governors to live up to their responsibilities to the electorate, for their respective states, by taking necessary steps to contain the herdsmen crisis that have been ravaging the country.
During an exclusive interview with Arise TV which aired this morning (Thursday), monitored in Lagos, south west, Nigeria, the President, while answering a question on state police, encouraged the state governors to take action, instead of indulging in rhetoric and expecting him to do everything.
He said, “You know these people more than I do, and you are democratically elected to protect your people. Don’t sit idly, expecting me to do everything, take action.”
He disclosed that not too long ago, two South-West governors visited him to complain about herdsmen encroaching on farmers’ lands in their regions, which should not be.
