His words: “Just as you have in any society where there are good and bad people.”

He also claimed that the killer herdsmen are not the only criminals in the the country.

“It is not only Fulanis that commit crimes in the country, but it was sad that everything happening now is heaped on Fulani herdsmen,” Mohammed maintained.

The coordinator continued, “We have concluded at our meeting today that anybody who comes to Kwara State claiming to be Fulani herder under questionable circumstances, will be reported to the security agencies for necessary action.
