Kwara Insecurity: Fulani Leader Seeks Inclusion in Forest Guard to Combat Rising Insecurity in Kwara

Amid rising bandit attacks across several communities in Kwara State particularly in Kwara South and Kwara North Senatorial Districts with increasing cases of kidnapping, the Serikin Fulani of Kwara State, Adam Abdullahi, has called on both the Federal Government and the Kwara State Government to consider recruiting Fulani indigenes into the Forest Guard system to strengthen efforts against terrorists. Abdullahi made the call over the weekend during an interactive session with journalists at his palace in Ilorin, the Kwara State capital. This followed an emergency meeting with Fulani leaders from the South-Western states. He stressed that security matters must not be politicized or driven by ethnic discrimination, urging governments at all levels to leverage the knowledge of Fulani indigenes who, by virtue of their age-long cattle-rearing occupation, are deeply familiar with forest terrains.
