In fact, a Fulani man currently serves as the National Security Adviser,\u201d Gwarzo pointed out.<\/p>\n<p>He urged the organization\u2019s leadership to engage with government officials of Fulani heritage for support in their efforts.<\/p>\n<p>Gwarzo also criticized the media\u2019s unfair representation of the Fulani, stating, \u201cIt is disappointing that certain sections of the media tarnish the Fulani\u2019s image. The Fulani community has made substantial contributions to agriculture and other key sectors, particularly as the backbone of our nation\u2019s herding economy. Such negative portrayals are unfounded.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>He called on the Federal Government, and particularly security agencies, to address the media\u2019s misrepresentation of the Fulani\u2019s noble history and valuable contributions to the country.<\/p>\n<p>Gwarzo urged Fulbe associations across Nigeria to come together, set aside their differences, and unite to protect the rights and privileges of the Fulani community.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cI advise you to collaborate with relevant stakeholders to safeguard and enhance the Fulani\u2019s image,\u201d he concluded, stressing the need for a more inclusive and respectful media narrative that acknowledges the Fulani\u2019s pivotal role in Nigeria\u2019s past, present, and future.<\/p>\n<p>Earlier, Alhaji Sanusi Abdullahi Nassarawa, the Ardo of Tabital Fulaku International Nigeria, explained that the purpose of their visit was to update the government on the association\u2019s activities and to seek support in restoring the Fulani community\u2019s image nationwide.<\/p>\n<p>Nassarawa emphasized that the organization\u2019s primary goals include uniting the Fulani, modernizing their trade, and educating their people, alongside seeking government collaboration through the Ministry of Agriculture and Natural Resources.<\/p>\n<p><strong>For More News And Analysis About <span style=\"color: #ff6600\">Nigeria<\/span> Follow <span style=\"color: #ff6600\">Africa-Press<\/span><\/strong><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Africa-Press &#8211; Nigeria.
