Hate Song Ignited The Rwandan Genocide, Says Goodluck

Former President Goodluck Jonathan has condemned the hate song about the Igbos which is being circulated in Northern Nigeria.

In a post on his Facebook page, Jonathan recalled that a similar song was what led to the Rwandan Genocide in which hundreds of thousands of people were killed. He also used the opportunity to condole with the people of Anambra State over the church attack in which 12 worshippers lost their lives.

He wrote;

"I am also disturbed about the news of a song celebrating hatred against a particular Nigerian ethnic group. Given that a similar song is what ignited the Rwandan Genocide, as a nation, we must not take these reports lightly. I urge the security services to do their utmost to nip this wickedness in the bud.

As I have said previously, we must understand and accept that all Nigerians are brothers and sisters born from the womb of one Nigeria. May this be uppermost in our minds as we pray that God may bless Nigeria."

It pains me whenever our pasts and present leaders keeps using the term One Nigeria when they've done virtually nothing as leaders to prove that such an entity(One Nigeria) ever existed. I'm not fooled by their condolences no more

Where was he when the hate speeches have been coming from the East since 2015? Just less than a month that the abokis started to reply He now find his voice?

Kanu has been insulting everybody upandan, what did he say?

Spoken like a true Slow Poke,
And when Nnamdi Kanu was circulating hate speeches and hate slangs (Zoo, Yooloba etc) among his ibo followers, your head was buried in the sand then? It's you the elders that are the problem, cos a yam can never be bigger than the knife.
Instead of you to call him to order you let the monster that you created become so big that you can no longer control it.

He started something the Northerns are only helping him to finish it.

Ask history cos this has always been the case.

Don't mind the slow poke.
It's cases like this that makes you see being old does not make you wise.

See the posters above me attacking Nnamdi Kanu even when the thread topic doesn't concern him.

Buhari started his own hate speeches in 2011. Four years before Nnamdi Kanu started.

Okay, then stop crying and let everyone back to his tent

Someone should ask this Jonathan if the following are the love speeches from Nnamdi KANU


Anybody who voted or supported Buhari, give me a gun, I will shoot the person dead, and go to prison."

-Nnamdi Kanu...speaking to a gathering of Igbo people on World Igbo Day in Los Angeles earlier this year.



"You must come out to support what we are doing. We need guns, and we need bullets...To kill somebody is very difficult for us, so to ask a gathering of igbo people that we need guns and bullets, and weapons would be very very difficult to address, but without it, Hausa people will barrage us."

-Nnamdi Kanu...speaking to a gathering of Igbo people on World Igbo Day in Los Angeles earlier this year.




"If they fail to give us Biafra, Somalia will look like a paradise compared to what will happen to that ZOO (Nigeria). It is a promise, it is a pledge, and it is also a threat to them."

-Nnami Kanu...during an interview with Sahara Reporters in March, 2014




"If they do not give us Biafra, there will be nothing living in that very zoo they call Nigeria. Nothing will survive there, I can assure you...I do not believe in peaceful actualization of what ever the rubbish is called. I have never seen where you become free by peaceful means."

Is that all you could say on this serious issue about the hate song against the Igbos in the north that can trigger genocide
You are a former President of Nigeria that ruled with cowardness and up till date you are still afraid to caution the perpetrators of the hate song or even advise the igbos to relocate to their states to avoid massacre as was planned
What a coward Jonathan that cannot hit the nail by the head

3. What approach should be taken in making Nigeria a better country?

Buhari Hate Speech in 2011
Barely six weeks before the 2015 presidential elections, a new video has surfaced on the Internet which showed Gen. Muhammadu Buhari, the presidential candidate of the opposition All Progressives Congress, APC, inciting his supporters in northern Nigeria for violence after the 2011 presidential election.

According to the 1 minutes 56 seconds clip posted on Youtube.com, the former Head of State was captured on camera calling on thousands of his supporters who gathered at a rally held in Minna, Niger State, to go all out to cast their votes and to kill anyone who stops them from doing this.

It was disclosed that Buhari's call for violence after the 2011 election subsequently led to mass bloodshed in many parts of northern Nigeria after the presidential election that saw the election of President Goodluck Jonathan.

Below is the video posted on YouTube;

It would be noted that despite the bloodshed that ensued after the 2011 presidential polls as a result of Gen Buhari's call for violence, the APC candidate for next year's presidential election has not come out to deny the allegations.

As a result of this, many Nigerians that commented after seeing the video questioned why a party (APC) that calls for CHANGE would present Buhari as his candidate.

It would be recalled that recently the Special Adviser on Media and Publicity to the President, Reuben Abati, shared a scandalous extract from the WikiLeaks document, containing numerous allegations related to Gen. Buhari.

According to another portion of leaked documents dating back to 2003, Bola Tinubu (Lagos State Governor at that time) urged the Alliance for Democracy to support Olusegun Obasanjo over Buhari, claiming that Buhari's ethnocentrism would jeopardize Nigeria’s national unity.

1. Nigeria is my beloved country
2. No
3. Collectively fight our leaders to demand a good governance. Forgetting about ethnicity because those fools only bring in ethnicity and religion when something is not in their personal favour. But united when they are sharing money. Mind you, no leader will succeeded if we don't cooperate with him/her to fight our thieves .

Thanks
