Buy Yourself A Brain, If You Are Insulting Femi Fani-Kayode for Saying the Truth

Femi Fani-Kayode.

Buy yourself a brain, if you are one of the silly Nigerians attacking and insulting former Minister of Aviation, Femi Fani-Kayode, for saying the bitter truth on the atrocities of the barbaric Hausa Fulani herdsmen trespassing the lands of others with impunity and have murdered more than 10, 000 innocent Nigerians, including babies; destroying farmlands and raping women and female children.
Answer these questions:
Have you seen the arrest and prosecution of any of these Hausa Fulani herdsmen for their hellish crimes?
Has President Muhammadu Buhari condemned these Hausa Fulani herdsmen?
They have disarmed the vigilante groups in Benue and Plateau states, but did they disarm these rampaging and trespassing Hausa Fulani herdsmen on killing sprees in the middle belt and other parts of Nigeria?
Is it legal and lawful for Hausa Fulani herdsmen to acquire and use military weapons?
