Would You Consider this A Nature’s Call?

Please give what you can to save a soul today.

In the words of Pierre de Marivaux, upon the death of one person is a bit of humanity lost.

You will feel pity at the gory sight of the new home of the indigenes of Odugbeho village in Agatu Local Government Area of Benue State.

These people were once happy inhabitants of a decent village, but the Fulani will not take their eyes off the supposed arable land of Benue people. They have chosen a nomadic lifestyle and will vehemently reject any idea of ranching for their life stock. Living a nomadic life is ordinarily not supposed to be a problem but doing so at the expense of people's lives is what saner nations would never allow. Sadly, this government seems to have allowed that.

When they started hiding their cows in our bushes, none of us knew what was lurking. They struck when they mastered our terrine. More than a hundred people, including women and children, lost their lives through their bullets. Twice of this number have died in resultant effects - hunger, sickness, poor hygiene, etc! The mental and psychological torture is extreme.

When The Channels reported the news, they said 20:

ThisThisDay report and said 30:

Vanguard said 27:

Saharareporters said 40:

All these media houses reported from a distance. Those of us on ground know that the death toll exceeded 100, and this was a repeat attack.

The Fulanis wanted the land. They have it now. After the Sunday 7th attack, all indigenes of Odugbeho deserted the village. Those with means ran far away. The rest are mainly uneducated destitute.

This is where we now live.

The government has done absolutely nothing to help us, and they call this an IDP camp. No water, no food, no healthcare facility, no suitable housing (these are wooden huts). When we came here last year, some people were already living in this place. We joined them.

We beg you, dear steemians, to please help us with whatever you can afford. We want to sponsor our kids to school. We want to bring pipe-borne water to this place, and we need first-aid care for the sick.

These are the three projects we are begging you to help us accomplish.

The government is overly insensitive to all of these. The people at the leadership levels habitually snub our plea every time. They would rather go on air to make bogus promises that will never be redeemed.

Up till today, this is where we are. No governmental support, no visit! This is an example of what an IDP should not be. When it rains, everywhere is flooded.

The perpetrators of this massacre are roaming freely with their weapons. No arrest, no prosecution. Just nothing!

People are dying here untimely. Please support us with whatever you can.

今天请尽你所能拯救一个灵魂。

用皮埃尔•德•马里沃(Pierre de Marivaux)的话来说,一个人的死是失去了一点人性。

看到贝努埃州阿加图地方政府区 Odugbeho 村土著人的新家园的血腥景象,您会感到遗憾。

这些人曾经是一个体面村庄的幸福居民,但富拉尼人不会把目光从贝努埃人所谓的耕地上移开。他们选择了游牧的生活方式,并将强烈拒绝任何以牧场为生的想法。过着游牧生活通常不应该是一个问题,但以牺牲人民生命为代价这样做是理智的国家绝不会允许的。可悲的是,这个政府似乎允许这样做。

当他们开始将奶牛藏在我们的灌木丛中时,我们谁也不知道潜伏着什么。当他们掌握了我们的陶罐时,他们就会出击。包括妇女和儿童在内的一百多人死于子弹。这一数字的两倍因后果而死亡——饥饿、疾病、卫生条件差等。精神和心理上的折磨是极端的。

[当频道报道这个消息时,他们说20:](https://googleweblight.com/sp?u=https://www.channelstv.com/2021/06/07/suspected-herdsmen-kill-20-persons-in-agatu-leave-many-injured/&grqid= jKpPKn4u&hl=en-NG)

[ThisThisDay报道并说30:](https://googleweblight.com/sp?u=https://www.thisdaylive.com/index.php/2021/06/08/again-30-feared-killed-by-herdsmen-in-agatu/&grqid= Gvhajxqa&hl=en-NG)

[先锋 说 27:](https://googleweblight.com/sp?u=https://www.vanguardngr.com/2021/06/again-27-mourners-and-traders-killed-in-agatu-by-armed-herdsmen/&grqid= Gvhajxqa&hl=en-NG)

撒哈拉记者说 40:

所有这些媒体都从远处报道。我们这些在地面的人都知道死亡人数超过了100,这是一次重复袭击。

富拉尼人想要这片土地。他们现在有了。在周日的第 7 次袭击之后,奥杜贝霍的所有土著人都离开了村庄。有钱人跑远了。其余的主要是未受过教育的贫困人口。

这就是我们现在居住的地方。

政府完全没有做任何帮助,他们称之为国内流离失所者营地。没有水,没有食物,没有医疗设施,没有合适的住房(这些都是木屋)。去年我们来的时候,这里已经有人住了。我们加入了他们。

我们恳求你们,亲爱的 steemians,请在您负担得起的任何事情上帮助我们。我们想赞助我们的孩子上学。我们想把管道输送的水带到这个地方,我们需要对病人进行急救。

这是我们请求您帮助我们完成的三个项目。

政府对所有这些都过于麻木了。人们开始指责他们同谋,这太糟糕了。我们没有实质性证据支持他们的说法。我们可以告诉任何愿意倾听的人,领导层的人每次都习惯性地冷落我们的请求。他们宁愿在广播中做出永远无法兑现的虚假承诺。

直到今天,这就是我们所处的位置。没有政府支持,没有参观!这是 IDP 不应该成为的一个例子。下雨的时候,到处都是水。

这场大屠杀的肇事者带着他们的武器自由地游荡。没有逮捕,没有起诉。根本不值一提!

人们在这里过早地死去。请尽你所能支持我们。
