A Fulani herdsman captured by the Oyo state police command on Friday, July 15 has revealed why he thinks he robs and kills.

 He was paraded by the Oyo state police comand together with his accomplice, Umoru Sanda for alleged armed robbery and murder. Amidu Umoru, 20, was arrested by the Oyo state police along Igangan/Iganna road via Iwere Ile in Oke-Ogun area of the state.

 He said despite being a herdsman, he was destined to rob.

 Leye Oyebade, the state commissioner of police, who spoke to newsmen while the suspects were being paraded, said Umoru and Sanda were accused of attacking one Kehinde Rafiu, beating him with a shepherd club and machete before robbing him of his motorcycle.

According to Umoru, his accomplice first attacked the deceased with machete before he (Umoru) used the club to beat him to a state of coma because he put up a fight with them. Kehinde, the victim, later died in a hospital because of the fatality of the injury.

 According to Today, Umoru said: “Sanda cut the motorcycle owner with his cutlass and I used the club to beat him. He was seriously injured but not dead. I normally used the club to shepherd cattle. After leaving him for dead, we took his motorcycle away to sell.

We were later arrested by members of the Odua Peoples’ Congress who handed us over to the police. I don’t know why I did it. I had no motive.

 I cannot even ride a motorcycle. I am a herdsman and this is my first time of being arrested or robbing people.

 Whatever Allah desires must come to past. I think it is my destiny to rob,” Umoru added. Meanwhile, the Nasarawa state chapter of the Christian Association of Nigeria (CAN) has accused bloodthirsty Fulani herdsmen over the brutal killing of an Evangelical Church Winning All (ECWA) pastor, Reverend Joseph Kura.
