The genesis of the ethnic cleansing going on in Kaduna state which has the full backing of Governor of the state, Mallam Nasir El-Rufai an Islamist fanatic and President Muhammadu Buhari who through his various aides has stated that he is not concerned about the killing of 808 Christians from Southern Kaduna, has been revealed to be a retaliatory attack over the death of foreign Fulani fighters in Kaduna in 2011.
The Miyetti Allah Cattle Breeders
Association of Nigeria (MACBAN), Kaduna State in a release yesterday
revealed that that they are only engaging in reprisal attack against the
Southern Kaduna Christians over the killing of some of their people
after Muhammadu Buhari lost the presidential election in 2011.
This is the same stand of Mallam Nasir
El-Rufai and the Kaduna state government that allowed the killing and
destruction of properties to be going on unabated for nearly 8 months
non-stop.
“The invasions carried out by herdsmen
were reprisal killings from the 2011 post-presidential killings of
herdsmen and their cattle, however, preached that reprisals would never
lead to a solution to the problem.
The Assistant National Secretary of Miyetti Allah, Dr. Ibrahim Abdullahi, addressing the press in Kaduna, said some foreign Fulani were killed in Southern Kaduna in 2011 alongside local Fulani.

He said when the reprisal attacks from
the Fulani started then, late Governor Patrick Yakowa of Kaduna State
intervened by reaching out to aggrieved Fulani, using some members of
MACABAN, which ultimately led to resolving the crisis in 2012.
