Vice President of Nigeria says military offensive in the north east region against terrorists has become debilitating therefore “pulaaku” is needed
The Nigerian Vice President Kashim Shettima has said that the military offensive in the terrorist ridden north east region has become a war of attrition and a new strategy is needed.
The Vice President spoke on Sunday in chat with journalists while on a condolence visit to Kano State over the death of the northern politician, Abubakar Galadanci.
“Unless we want to engage in an endless war of attrition, there cannot be a military solution to the crisis in the North-West. There has to be a kinetic and non-kinetic solution,” Shettima said.
“The President is determined to define the meaning and concept of modern governance, and the crisis we have in the northwest which is further accentuated by poverty,” he said, according to a statement by his Director of Information, Olusola Abiola.
“The social exclusion is also something that the President is determined to frontally confront and in the coming weeks he is going to unveil the Pulaaku solution.”
“In the next couple of weeks, we will unveil the Pulaaku solution, which will address the grievances and social exclusion of our Fulbe cousins in the North-West and also towards addressing the root causes of all the banditry and insurgency in the nation,” Shettima explained.
Pulaaku also known as the “Fulani code of conduct,” is an integral cultural and ethical value system peculiar to the Fulani tribe. Pulaku in Fulfude means brotherhood but it can be used in different context including helping or assisting the Fulani community.
“The President is determined to define the meaning and concept of modern governance and the crisis we have in the North-West, which is further accentuated by poverty.” Shettima explained when asked what President Bola Tinubu will do to confront the numerous security challenges facing the country.
