A Fulani professional group, Coalition of Fulbe Professionals in Africa, has distanced itself from a statement credited to one Alhasan Salah, representing campaign of calumny against the 2023 presidential candidate of Labour Party, Peter Obi.
The group described the move as “politically sponsored and called on Nigerians to disregard such a statement, saying it did not speak for Fulani ethnic group or represent the Fulanis in any way.
Alhasan had said that the Fulani nation would not support the candidature of Obi, describing him not only as a tribal bigot but also as someone who did not like the North, and by extension, the Fulani tribe.
