Updates needed.

According to the Global Terrorism Index report for 2020, Fulani extremist attacks have decreased and are no longer the fourth most deadly terrorist "group" globally. Even the Index recognizes that the only thing that really connects them is that they are Fulani and herdsmen. https://www.visionofhumanity.org/wp-content/uploads/2020/11/GTI-2020-web-1.pdf Check pages 13, 14, 21, 98, Quote: "Nigeria had the second largest fall in total deaths, owing largely to a 72 per cent reduction in fatalities attributed to Fulani extremists." page 13 and "The Fulani extremists do not constitute a single terrorist group." page 21. I also suggest that some of the language used in this article be reviewed. "Nigerian president Muhammadu Buhari has been criticised for turning a blind eye to the atrocities committed by his kinsmen" sounds a bit slanted towards certain viewpoints.

Infobox

The infobox states the main belligerents as "Christians" and "Muslims". While most farmers are Christian and most herders are Muslim, and the conflict has taken an ethnoreligious dimension, isn't that a little too simplistic/approximate for an infobox? Having something like "Farmers (mostly Christians)" and "Herders (mostly Muslim)", or having the religious divide in in-infobox footnotes, would make more sense. I prefer asking before making such a change as this is an active topic and any change might be contentious (especially since, having no ties to the region, I'm not the most knowledgeable about the dynamics at play there).

Should the indigenous peoples of Biafra be added?

considering that they made ESN to tackle Fulani herdsman in South eastern Nigeria. Shouldn't they be added as well? Brek1234567 (talk) 13:55, 29 July 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Background needed?

Shouldn´t the low level of education, especially amongst women be mentioned? Maybe also the incident when a southern governor tried to stop the herders and the (muslimdominated) federal government pulled funding for the state? When? Which state was it? 90.228.143.13 (talk) 06:51, 12 October 2024 (UTC)[reply]
