Reacting to a viral video where a Fulani man was seen threatening the entire Christians in the country and talking to the president of the country with so much impudence “what happened in Uromi is barbaric and shouldn’t be encouraged,if they had suspected that they were kidnappers, they shouldn’t have handed them over to the security operatives,not killing them instantly,such callous and act of dastardly such not be encouraged because we are one Nigeria ”

The PMF president was infuriated by the daring utterances of the Fulani guy on social media who threatened to kill and cause chaos in order to avenge the death of the Fulani hunters “I want to be very realistic,we shouldn’t encourage such threat that is capable of setting the nation on fire,why threaten to kill Christians, what happened in Uromi was not religious,I beckon on the security operatives to search and arrest him before he tears the nation apart”

Finally,he called on other religious leaders in the country to speak out at this point and defend the Christians in the country because they are not the ones that perpetuated the act “I want to implore the fathers of faith and other Christian bodies in the country to stand upright and defend the Christian faith because what happened in Uromi has absolutely nothing to do with the Christians ”
