The Forum of Ethnic Youth Presidents in Nasarawa State has raised concerns over the recent inauguration of the Nomad Vigilante Group by Miyetti Allah Kautal Hore, a Fulani socio-cultural organization.
The forum raised the concern at a press conference held on Tuesday in Lafia, urging the Federal Government to take immediate action to proscribe the newly formed group.
It spotlighted the suspicious nature of its establishment. Comrade Dauda Yileni, the president of the Forum, stated the need for vigilance and caution in light of potential security risks associated with the group’s activities.
The Forum also demanded the immediate redeployment of all heads of conventional security agencies who attended the group’s inauguration in Lafia on January 17th, expressing concern over the perceived endorsement of the vigilante group by security officials.
Comrade Yileni further echoed the importance of equipping security agencies with the necessary resources and training to enhance intelligence gathering.
