The activist made this demand while addressing his followers in Ibadan, Oyo State.
Igboho vowed to storm forests and communities where the groups are believed to be hiding, seize their weapons, and end their activities.
He declared that he was ready to pay with his life if he failed in the mission.
He said: “The government should hand over a security agency to me and see if I won’t eradicate the Fulani terrorist s. If I don’t kpai all them, tell the government to kpai me”
His statement comes at a time when herder-farmer clashes continue to claim lives across the country.
The conflict, which has been ongoing since the 2010s, has resulted in thousands of deaths, including more than 200 people killed in Benue State’s Yelwata community in June 2025.
