[24/06 5:20 pm] Ozele 1: Forwarded as rcvd: TODAY'S NIGERIA, DANGEROUS ....... EXTREMELY DANGEROUS Now President Buhari has serially, deceitfully and masterfully completed the configuration of the entire National Security structure/architecure firmly in the hands of the Northern Muslim Hausa-Fulani alone to the exclusion of all other ethnic blocs in Nigeria .... this is very, very dangerous for the South and for Northern Christians. Chief of Army Staff ....... Northern Muslim Hausa-Fulani Police IG ........... Northern Muslim Hausa-Fulani Minister for Defense ..... Northern Muslim Hausa-Fulani Minister for Internal Affairs ...... Northern Muslim Hausa-Fulani National Security Adviser (NSA) ......... Northern Muslim Hausa-Fulani DG, Department of State Services (DSS) ..... Northern Muslim Hausa-Fulani Chief of Staff ...... Northern Muslim Hausa-Fulani ADC to President ....... Northern Muslim Hausa-Fulani CSO to President ..... Northern Muslim Hausa-Fulani Protocol to President ..... Northern Muslim Hausa-Fulani Private Secretary to President ....... Northern Muslim Hausa-Fulani DG Customs .......... Northern Muslim Hausa-Fulani DG, EFCC ....... Northern Muslim Hausa-Fulani DG, Nigeria Prisons ..... Northern Muslim Hausa-Fulani DG, Immigration ...... Northern Muslim Hausa-Fulani Minister for Petroleum ...... Northern Muslim Hausa-Fulani Minister for FCT ........ Northern Muslim Hausa-Fulani ADD TO THESE: 1. Head of National Assembly/Senate President ...... Northern Muslim 2. Head of Judiciary/Chief Justice of Nigeria ..... Northern Muslim Hausa-Fulani 3. Head, Federal Courts of Appeal ...... Northern Muslim Hausa-Fulani Can this be true? Yes its true. Yet some people will not see anything bad with this arrangement and development. The intention of Mr President towards Nigerians is really manifesting in the lopsideness of the appointments, the hegemonistic and mediaeval chauvinistic colonization and Fulanization of Nigeria. [24/06 5:38 pm] Pelican Nsikak: I was just sharing dis very very dangerous reality with someone today. This is suppose to take over the main agenda and o lynus agenda of discussions in Nigeria. But I wonder y ppl r not seeing this new colonialism. |
