Declare Miyetti Allah Terrorist Organisation, Yoruba Nation Agitators, Others Tell UN
Yoruba Nation agitators and other self-determination activists have asked United Nations to declare Miyetti Allah a terrorist organisation.
The statement was issued ahead of the group’s million-man freedom march scheduled to hold at the United Nations Headquarters in New York, United States of America from 14th to 24th September, 2021.
Part of the statement read, “We want an end to the ethno-religious killings in Nigeria. We want the Government of Nigeria to stop funding terrorism against us. What is happening today in Nigeria is a State-sponsored Terrorism.
“The herdsmen you see in the South and Middle-Belt today are different from the nomadic herdsmen we grew up to know. The current ones are imported members of ISIS, AL-QUAEDA, ISWAP and Boko Haram Terrorists being masqueraded as Bandits.
“By the grace of God, we shall be demanding from the world leaders to declare Miyetti Allah as a terrorist Group. It is dangerous to safety and peace of the South and Middle-Belt people to call Miyetti Allah a trade Union, it is a terrorist group being supported by the current Fulanised Government of Nigeria with a mission to overrun the indigenous people.
“We the Indigenous people now say enough is enough. Therefore, as the World Leaders are meeting for the 76th session of the United Nations General Assembly, we want to use the opportunity to demand for a United Nations Supervised Referendums in our regions so that the indigenous people can decide on what they want for their nationhood.
“First, the fraudulent 1999 Constitution must go down. And this should happen before the 2023 General Elections”, he said.
