“We are amazed that the spokesman of Jama’atu Nasril Islam could ascribe the ownership and control of Fulani herdsmen to any Christian organisation. Such attempt to stand reason on its head does not portray JNI as a serious minded organisation. “We used to assume that JNI is a credible and responsible organisation that can meaningfully engage in national discourse.

For the herdsmen, it would be considered demeaning if anyone should ascribe any other religion apart from Islam to them.
