I Will Do Everything Possible To Keep Nigeria As One – Buhari by TheFreeOne: 8:35pm On May 09, 2016
By Abdulsalam Muhammad - KANO

President Muhammadu Buhari has vowed to do everything possible to keep Nigeria as one. President Buhari who bore his mind at Emir’s Palace, Katsina during the beginning of his two day official visit to the state Monday, recalled with nostalgia colossal lives that were lost during the Nigerian civil war all in a bid to ensure our unity.

“I always say the civil war was fought for the unity of Nigeria because as at the time we have not even discovered oil let alone enjoying it, and we must not also forget that about two million people were killed”. Buhari lamented that it was rather unfortunate that “recently, some people who were not even born then are saying they want to divide Nigeria”.

The President noted “with the way Sahara is advancing, with Boko Haram, growing number of people and uncertainty over rainfall, in a land where we fought civil war leading to the death of about two million, it would be foolhardy for someone to just say he would chase us away”. Buhari further assured that his administration would do all that is within his powers to ensure the continuous existence of Nigeria as a peaceful and one united entity.

The President who admitted that he knows the difficulties Nigerians are passing through said government was doing everything possible to change the fortunes of the nation. He appealed to Nigerians to go back to farm as it remains the viable option out of our current economic quagmire, as he futher added “those who don’t have should the necessary wherewithal should learn trade”.

Earlier in an his address, the Emir of Katsina, Abdulmumini Kabir accused the immediate past administration of Goodluck Jonathan for abandoning the contract for dredging of River Niger.

Emir Kabir noting that “inland water way is the wealth of the nation and these people don’t want it here”. He urged residents especially the hausa-fulani to intensify prayers for PMB.

When you say "anything", do you mean like restructuring the country? Or do you simply mean killing everybody that doesn't want to be under Nigeria anymore?

I belong to the Southwest part of this Country and I make bold to say that this statement credited to the President of this great country who is an Elderstates man is an "act of war" on its own. Is Buhari trying to fight another Civil War should an aggrieved part of this Country felt shortchanged in the scheme of things?
The points raised by the Niger Delta Avengers are genuine and germane to the issue plaguing us as a Nation shortly after Biafra-Nigeria Civil ear. Buhari will only succeed in rubbishing his good start on putting Nigeria on a new pedestal should he tow the path of confrontation with the militants..... I repeat, any act of confrontation from the Nigerian Troops against innocent lives (likely targets) in the Niger Delta area of Nigeria may lead to Gaddafi's treatment from the International Powers as the place of dialogue ought to have been utilized to a logical conclusion.

**Buhari must be reminded that this is not 1966, the world has metamorphosed politically over the years. It is no longer "compulsory" that we "must" be ONE as Buhari is championing. The foundation of this Country is faulty from day one and as one of the Gladiators of the Civil War, he should know better**

There is no one Nigeria.

What we have is an amalgam of different nations with different cultures, traditions and mindsets.

It is what Yorubas will term 'adalu' a mixture of beans and corn with glaring differences.

Some people can be scandalous. Buharis thinking is like that of some who lives inside a cave. It is not Buharis job to keep Nigeria one, there was never a time we came together and agreed to be one. Britain created Nigeria. But in 2014, that same Britain allowed Scotland a referendum so that they can decide if they want to become a separate nation. But in Nigeria, a gworo chewing dullard is talking about keeping Nigeria one when there is historical connection between us Igbos and them. So what is there to keep together?

Fulani terrorist herdsmen grand patron talking.

Buhari is a very divisive personality. And some idiots believed he's a man of integrity not pro-Fulani herdsmen.

You were ready then to set Nigeria ablaze if not for GEJ's godliness, yet you want to come here to deceive us of keeping Nigeria as one.

Your actions do not depict a man who believes in the oneness of this country. If a presidential visit is too costly to be paid to Agatu and Enugu. Or presidential empathy too hard to be shown to the victims of herdsmen attacks. Then you give strength to the centrifugal forces threatening to pull this country apart. This country is held together by a fragile lattice, the centre may no longer hold if some sacred cows are left to keep tugging at it.

If there was any doubt about a northernization agenda , this statement from Buhari himself stands as a confirmation.


Here you see him stating the motives of the Fulani invasion hinging it on climate change and drought.


This is a war of survival and expansion by the Fulanis to occupy the south and middle belt.


Seun, may God continue to punish you and your entire people.

Your southwest will be used as grazing and not Niger Delta and Biafra.

If there is ever a time to war , this is it.


God punish Buhari , the entire Muslim north and southwest and you too Seun for your connivance in hiding this present day jihadist agenda.

“I always say the civil war was fought for the unity of Nigeria because as at the time we have not even discovered oil let alone enjoying it, and we must not also forget that about two million people were killed”. Buhari lamented that it was rather unfortunate that “recently, some people who were not even born then are saying they want to divide Nigeria”.
The red bolded, someone correct me if I am wrong but was oil not discovered in 1956 in Olobiri? What of the first refinery built in 1965? Was it not functional before the civil war? Let us now assume that he is correct - why then do people say the Igbos fought the civil war because they wanted to control the Niger Delta oil?

The President noted “with the way Sahara is advancing, with Boko Haram, growing number of people and uncertainty over rainfall, in a land where we fought civil war leading to the death of about two million, it would be foolhardy for someone to just say he would chase us away”. Buhari further assured that his administration would do all that is within his powers to ensure the continuous existence of Nigeria as a peaceful and one united entity.
The green bolded, his response makes it look like 'fifth columnists' were right about him supporting the massacre going on while paying lip service to dealing decisively with them. The South is now seen as a war booty! Omoshiroi!!!!! He as a president isn't supposed to say that.

The President who admitted that he knows the difficulties Nigerians are passing through said government was doing everything possible to change the fortunes of the nation. He appealed to Nigerians to go back to farm as it remains the viable option out of our current economic quagmire, as he futher added “those who don’t have should the necessary wherewithal should learn trade”.
The blue bolded, he should be fast because Nigerians are growing impatient by the day.

Earlier in an his address, the Emir of Katsina, Abdulmumini Kabir accused the immediate past administration of Goodluck Jonathan for abandoning the contract for dredging of River Niger.

Emir Kabir noting that “inland water way is the wealth of the nation and these people don’t want it here”. He urged residents especially the hausa-fulani to intensify prayers for PMB.
The brown bolded, prayers without putting the right structures in place is futile.

leave them alone cos they'll die of hate very soon. They are always looking for one form of evil or another to cling on to as long as it ridicules Buhari.

from GEJ to nnamdi kanu to saraki to fayose to all the criminals in our political atmosphere. Now, they are the biggest supporters of the Niger delta avengers cos they think their actions will lead to a disintegrated Nigeria.

The funniest part is that they always get shamed. Immediately they do, on a particular situation, they quickly move to support another evil. They are never happy and happiness can never know their doorstep. To think they have about 7 more years to wail is what amazes me.
