In today's Nigeria there is an escalation of attacks by Fulani herders against predominantly Christian communities in the middle belt region.
Bishop Tula |
The Anglican Bishop of Bauchi, Musa Mwin Tula, once said “The conflict between herdsmen and farmers has existed for a long time. But the menace in recent times has jumped from a worrisome itch in the north to a cancerous disease, spreading throughout the country, claiming lives and threatening to spiral into a monster.”
Attacks on farming communities tend to follow a similar pattern. The Fulani will use young cattle herders to scout a village. These children will speak to local people, ascertaining whether villagers are armed and where any weapons are kept. The Fulani will send a ‘warning signal’ to the village 1-2 weeks before the attack.
The insurgency begins with about 50-100 Fulani herders shooting outside the village. They shout “Allahu Akbar” and attack homes of pastors, community heads and local vigilantes – having previously ascertained information from the young cattle herders.

The Christian Association of Nigeria estimate that between January and June 2018 around 6,000 people have been killed by Fulani. On the 16th of March 2019 Fulani herdsmen invaded Nandu Village in Sanga LGA Kaduna State Nigeria, killing 10 including children.
They set 30 homes ablaze and made sure their harvested crops where charred. Motor bikes and grinding machines belonging to the villagers were also not spared. It seemed they wanted to ensure the villagers were completely paralyzed and full of fear to attempt returning home.
