Groups representing indigenous communities have blasted the Hausa-Fulani ruling class, saying their cold response to the violent activities of the Boko Haram sect amounted to complicity. These groups at a joint press conference in Lagos to mark the United Nations Day of indigenous communities on Friday, urged Nigerians to reject any politician that had links with the violent sect during the 2015 general elections.
The groups including the Green Peoples Environmental Network, Southern Nigerian Ethnic Nationality Alliance, O’odua Nationalist Coalition, the Coalition of Nigerian Civil Right Groups and the United Middle Belt Youth Congress, said the conflict in the Maghreb region and Boko Haram insurgency had led to displacement of indigenous communities and the seizure of ancestral homelands, rape and killings of innocent civilians by the armed Islamic gangs.
