Mr. Femi Fani-Kayode, a former Aviation Minister, has kicked against the acquisition of radio station for the armed Fulani herdsmen by the Federal Government as “a means to curtail killings in the country”, Igbere Tv reports.
Recall that Igbere Tv brought to you the report that the Federal Government under President Muhammadu Buhari on Wednesday, May 22 disclosed that it acquired an Amplitude Modulation radio broadcast licence to reach herdsmen across various locations in the country as parts of measures to enhance nomadic education.
Mr Fani-Kayode while taking to his official Twitter page to kick against the project, queried why the same administration which declared the radio station of a proscribed group illegal will now establish a radio station for armed herdsmen believed to be the arrowheads of killings across the country,Igbere Tv reports.

“You say that @radiobiafralive is illegal yet you acquire a new radio station for the Fulani terrorists and herdsmen,” the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) chieftain said in a tweet on Thursday.
Why is it that all of a sudden the FG has banned all licensed weapons whilst the Fulani terrorists and herdsmen are stil going around with their AK47’s?
What type of Federal Government is this?” he queried.
First you say Boko Haram should not have been banned. Then you say Miyetti Allah and the Fulani herdsmen are patriots and not terrorists.Then you say IPOB are terrorists. Then you say @atiku is planning a coup. Then you say Obasanjo is planning to divide Nigeria.
Are you sane?”
Radio Biafra is the radio station of the Indigenous People Of Biafra (IPOB). When he was sworn in as president, Mr Buhari tried all he could to bring down the radio station he helped popularise by arresting the leader of the group, Nnamdi Kanu.
Mazi Nnamdi Kanu and his group are demanding the balkanization of the country, calling for the restoration of the defunct Biafra Republic.
The IPOB leader who is currently outside the shores of the country, had his group proscribed two years ago after a violent clash between IPOB and the Nigerian Military.
As at the time of filing this report, Igbere Tv could tell that the radio station which location is yet to be known is believed to be airing from diaspora and has continued to propagate the demands of IPOB.
