Yoruba Elder Alleges Referendum to Bar Fulani Residents from Nigeria

Yoruba Elder Alleges Referendum to Bar Fulani Residents from Nigeria

A Yoruba elder has claimed a proposal is underway for a referendum to remove Fulani communities from Nigeria. He insisted, “We don’t want them again,” urging support for the vote. Critics warn this plan could inflame ethnic tensions and displace thousands. Supporters argue it addresses security concerns linked to herdsmen conflicts. Observers say any vote targeting a specific group would challenge national unity and likely breach constitutional rights.
