Litmus:
Would the president make crucial statements, exposed to international scrutiny, without the advice of individuals with acsess to information more reliable than that of the average Nigerian with predilections to consuming horrible animals and making unsubstantiate-able comments on Nairaland?

you are a frustrated he-goat

1sttruth:


Nobody is clapping for Fayose or his ilks rather the question should be; was these blood bath there in the middle belt some 4 years ago ? as we recall that Gaddafi died 7 years back. So these infiltrators waited for your "god" president to come to power to show us the maradonic, acrobatic and James Bond styles they learnt in Libya 7 years ago. Pls say NO to bigotry.

Sirjamo:
This idiot of a governor will just sit down in his 16 local government state and be spewing thrash from his stinking mouth, everyone knows that proliferation of small arms and lite weapons has gone through the roof all over Africa since the libya civil war. Gaddafi praticaly threw his artillery wide open for his supporters in his desperate bid to crush his enemies, and there has not been any demobilisation or disarmament program to mop up those weapons after his death. Boko Haram, al Sabab and other armed group have been profiting from that, and with Nigeria's 1000 illegal entry points, how can anyone stop the inflow of such arms? It's ironic that the people who should be seen as ignorant and uninformed are being celebrated just because they are foolishly attacking the president.

ANIOMADEI2018:
IF APC is not the answer to our Problems, there is no reason going back to the instigators of the problem.
I'm not a politician but I would do everything not to have PDP in Government in Nigeria.
The greatest tragedy that can befall a nation is for her citizens to suffer collective amnesia. I believe PDP believes Nigerians have short memories, if not, Ibori would not have been included in their convention committee and Jonathan would not have been allowed to talk (He ended up indicting himself as usual anyway).
For those who may have forgotten, kindly joggle your memories with the following words on marble and you will agree with me that what happened in Eagle square on saturday was nothing but gathering of rogues.

Sincerely, I am surprise at your frivolous defence of the President on this issue. I believe if any of your family members were among those that were gruesomely murdered, you will not be defending the president this way.

Go through the same stale news we have been going through.how i wish your parents gave you excuses relating to your grandparents inabilities which resulted in there own inability to send you to school.

Recession didn't just happen, people looted Nigeria into RECESSION happening

engineerboat:
Ekiti State Governor, Mr Ayodele Fayose has said that President Muhammadu Buhari was becoming an embarrassment to Nigerians, urging his handlers to desist from allowing him to speak extempore.

Governor Fayose, who was reacting to the President’s claim that former Libyan leader Muammar Gaddafi, should be blamed for the ongoing herdsmen killings across the North Central of Nigeria said; “It is embarrassingly shameful that the President has taken his blame game to the international level by blaming the dead for his cluelessness.”

According to a statement issued on Thursday, by his Special Assistant on Public Communications and New Media, Lere Olayinka, the governor said it was becoming obvious that “Very soon, President Buhari will blame those who elected him for his failure.”



While meeting with the Archbishop of Canterbury Justin Welby in London Wednesday, President Buhari had said that the arms Gaddafi, who was killed seven years ago provided to his supporters had filtered into Nigeria where they are now being used to fuel killings across the north-central.

Governor Fayose, who described the President’s statement as embarrassing, asked how many Libyans were killed by herdsmen in the
last three years.

“Nigerians are accusing President Buhari and his government of complicity in the herdsmen killings and all that the President could do in response is to blame Gaddafi, who became history seven years ago? This is no doubt another international embarrassment from a
President who knows nothing other than to blame people for his own failure.

“Methinks those handling the President should see to it he is prevented from speaking outside Nigeria without a prepared speech.

“The other time, he went to Germany to embarrass Nigeria by referring to the chancellor of Germany, Angela Merkel, as ‘President Michelle of West Germany.”

Governor Fayose said President Buhari should rather face the reality of his government’s failure to secure the lives and properties of Nigerians as well as its seeming culpability in the herdsmen killings instead of going to foreign lands to advertise his cluelessness by blaming the dead.

edupedia:


...u and Fayose have only displayed that u know nothing about how Boko Haram get arms... Go and read a bit more or get more schooled without letting hatred blind u....

Babacele:
after the death of Gaddafi, many of his' boys' ran away from Libya and overran neighboring north African nations unleashing terror which unfortunately flow to Nigeria under PDP. The President is very correct. Just ignore these illiterates who can't differentiate between a Tuareg and a Fulani.

More than any president this nation has produced, Buhari's records at fighting terrorism has not been marched so far.
So I'm sure he is privy to plenty and adequate info on the Libya angle and I'm placing my bet on him and not some local tout of a governor who got to government house in Ekiti through official terrorism under PDP and who wouldn't have been so patient and tolerant enough of a disrespectful governor if he were to be the president! To hell with Fayose!

lexy2014:
so since u can different a Tuareg from a Fulani, pls what's d difference? Also, Which north African countries did Gaddafi's boys overrun?

Sirjamo:
A combination of many factoors are responsible, Gaddafi's arms is just one of them, and that's exactly what the president said. Environmental degradation, Boko Haram insurgents activities in the lake Chad area, mismanagement of ecology and ecosystem as well as lack of advanced animal breading practice are also responsible. That's why I believe a multitude of solutions are needed to end the killings.

lexy2014:
d focus of d discussion is on d Gaddafi connection 2 this whole episode. How in d world did Gaddafi's arms travel from Libya to Nigeria? Who brought d arms 2 nigeria and who are those using d arms?Even if they did, did they come with everlasting bullets?

Post-Gaddafi repercussions in the
Sahel
This project is a collaboration
between NAI and the Kofi Annan
Peacekeeping and Training Centre
(KAIPTC) in Accra. It was
established in the spring of 2012
with the intention to explore the
emerging security challenges in
the Sahel region after the fall of
Gaddafi.
Researchers: Mats Utas, Emy
Lindberg
Project started in 2012, finazlized
in 2014
The North African Spring has had
consequences reaching far
beyond North Africa. For instance,
the brutal killing of longstanding
Libyan dictator, Muammar Gaddafi,
has resulted in unintended and
comprehensible repercussions in
the Sahel region and beyond. Over
the past decades, longstanding
and far-ranging political and
economic ties have been
established between the Gaddafi
regime and both governments and
local strongmen in the region.
Currently in Chad, Mali, Central
African Republic, Niger, Algeria
and Mauritania, but also in the
Darfur region of Sudan. Local
political maps are being redrawn,
as political and military strongmen
lost their chief patron.
Simultaneously, militant groups of
loyal Gaddafi supporters are
returning from Libya to their
former homelands, contesting for
new space in the fragile political
topography of the sub-region.
Even before the fall of Gaddafi, it
was hard, if not impossible, to
separate flows of refugees, and
migrants from mercenary soldiers
and smugglers from radical
Islamists such as AQIM. The fall
of Gaddafi complicated this map
and the military-political dynamics
in the region and far beyond. On
the political scene, it is crucial to
understand what returning
mercenary soldiers from the
Gaddafi regime will imply for the
many local armed struggles in the
region. Furthermore, what will the
influx of arms and ammunition
flowing from Libya to the region
mean? If anti-aircraft missiles
SA-7 and other advanced military
equipment ends up in the hands
of AQIM or loyalists will it shift the
nature of the game? Will it also
change business strategies of
smuggling refugees, drugs and
contraband cigarettes to the north,
a business that not only includes
local strongmen, but also
government officials in the named
countries? Far from being just
local battles of control over space
and people the scenarios
increasingly ties up with global
political and economic agendas....

many of his 'boys' ran back to their bases Mali, Chad ,Sudan etc after the fall of Gaddafi and went with the arms and training gained therefrom and with collusion from their government officials who were helped into positions by Gaddafi in the first place, a new breed of local terrorism with regional coordination was birthed in Sahel Africa. Especially through Mali and Chad, these rogues came to Nigeria with heavy scars behind in form of cattle rustling, robbery and killing of Nigerians while PDP pretended to be lameduck thereby allowing these terrorists infiltrate our territories. 30 years earlier when Chadian forces unleashed similar terror on Nigeria, Buhari defeated them and nearly oust the Chadian government breeding the terror.

use Google and educate yourself bro.

lexy2014:
its been 3years and counting and u are still talking about pdp. I thought nigerians voted 4 apc 2 correct mistakes of pdp

u have mentioned countries in d sahel and am yet 2c how d activities of d so called gaddafi loyalists in d countries u mentioned affects Nigeria.Y haven't we seen Gaddafi guys in benin Togo, Ghana, Ivory coast, countries who just like Nigeria border d countries u mentioned? Even at that, d pronouncements of members of this govt have made d Gaddafi connection a mere fantasy. In d early days of this administration, d minister of interior Lt. Gen dambazzau told d national Assembly that d herdsmen issue is an economic one not a religious or ethnic one. theres no Gaddafi connection in that statement. Latter on, gov el rufai said on several occasions and very recently on channels that d govt pays "herdsmen" 2 keep Nigerians safe. These "herdsmen" being paid, are they d same Gaddafi loyalists that u and buhari are talking about? If they are, y would d govt pay foreigners when they are clearly carrying out criminal activities on Nigerian soil? With el rufais statement that d govt pays these "herdsmen" or "gaddafi loyalists", it clearly shows that d govt is in direct contact these criminals. Is el rufai saying that d govt is powerless in getting rid of these "Gaddafi men"?

Again, when d killings began 2 escalate in Benue, d govt thru d defence minister said d "herdsmen" were reacting 2d anti grazing law enacted by d Benue state governor. This position was reinforced by myetti Allah. Now if d "herdsmen" are d same as "Gaddafi loyalists", are u&buhari saying that Gaddafi loyalists now have cattle they are rearing in Nigeria? Also d govt said one of it's solution 2d herdsmen crisis is 2 create cattle colonies 4d "herdsmen". So if d herdsmen are d same as Gaddafi loyalists, that means that in creating cattle colonies, d govt is planning 2 cede parts of Nigeria 2 foreign criminal elements. Does that show a govt that is serious about national security?

its been 3years and counting and u are still talking about pdp. I thought nigerians voted 4 apc 2 correct mistakes of pdp

u have mentioned countries in d sahel and am yet 2c how d activities of d so called gaddafi loyalists in d countries u mentioned affects Nigeria.Y haven't we seen Gaddafi guys in benin Togo, Ghana, Ivory coast, countries who just like Nigeria border d countries u mentioned? Even at that, d pronouncements of members of this govt have made d Gaddafi connection a mere fantasy. In d early days of this administration, d minister of interior Lt. Gen dambazzau told d national Assembly that d herdsmen issue is an economic one not a religious or ethnic one. theres no Gaddafi connection in that statement. Latter on, gov el rufai said on several occasions and very recently on channels that d govt pays "herdsmen" 2 keep Nigerians safe. These "herdsmen" being paid, are they d same Gaddafi loyalists that u and buhari are talking about? If they are, y would d govt pay foreigners when they are clearly carrying out criminal activities on Nigerian soil? With el rufais statement that d govt pays these "herdsmen" or "gaddafi loyalists", it clearly shows that d govt is in direct contact these criminals. Is el rufai saying that d govt is powerless in getting rid of these "Gaddafi men"?

Again, when d killings began 2 escalate in Benue, d govt thru d defence minister said d "herdsmen" were reacting 2d anti grazing law enacted by d Benue state governor.

Oga we are talking about terrorism in the country ranging from Bokoharam, herdsmen attack/ cattle rustling, robbery and daily manslaughtering going on especially in Zamfara area etc being aided from Chad, Mali, Sudan ,Niger etc by a Confederates of Gaddafi's ignoble remnants which the PDP pampered and allowed to fester for several years before the coming of Buhari. So you want us to stop talking about the effect of a party in government for 2 decades when it is obvious that the party sabotaged and it is still sabotaging our nation being?

Your attempt at lumping the insecurity problems as only herdsmen attacks is deceptive and mischievous. Elrufai and not the FG paid those cattle owners and don't even have the full gist.

Several international organizations are aware of the effect of Gaddafi's remnants in Sahel Africa but have chosen to remain ignorant ,bias and mischievous in your approach. At least use Google .

lexy2014:
what does d topic say?does d topic say anything about robbery or boko haram or is it about herdsmen killings and buhari blaming this phenomenon on Gaddafi? So u are obviously speaking out of context.

U have lumped boko haram, herdsmen/cattle rustling, robbery all as terrorism. Well d FG doesnt call killer herdsmen/cattle rustlers terrorists. It calls them criminals.

this issue of herdsmen/cattle rustling isn't peculiar 2 zamfara state. I asked u a question, y is it that we don't hear of Gaddafi's loyalists in Togo, Benin republic, ivory coast, guinea, Ghana, Burkina Faso when in fact they also border Mali, Niger? U talked about Sudan. There are two Sudans. Which one are u referring 2 and I hope u no were Sudan is in proximity 2 Nigeria?

4u 2 have brought BH into this discussion, am sure u are also blaming Gaddafi's men 4 BH, right? That will b unfortunate.

4d Kaduna issue, which "full gist" are u talking about? If u have d "full gist", pls share. What I no(&I stand 2b corrected)is that el rufai said his govt is paying these herdsmen so that his people can b safe. Now u called them " cattle owners". If u are saying that these "cattle owners" are d same as "Confederate of Gaddafi remnants",are u saying that d "Confederate of Gaddafi remnants" now have cattle in Nigeria? Are u saying that d governor of a state in Nigeria will rather pay foreign criminal elements on a regular basis instead of liasing with d necessary security authorities 2 neutralize these people?

Pls avail urself d map of Nigeria and c where Kaduna state is located. It doesn't have an international border. How come we have Gaddafi loyalists in Kaduna state when states like kebbi, sokoto, katsina, jigawa and kano that have international borders don't have these crisis? U c that ur so called international dimension 2 this issue is highly perforated?

I asked u these pertinent questions earlier, unfortunately u were unable 2 provide one answer. U are still talking about what PDP did or didn't do. Let's agree with ur theory of PDP allowing d Gaddafi guys 2 gain ground in Nigeria. Is d el rufai approach d best approach? Does that approach make sense if u are say d guys in question are foreigners? How many years should it take 2 neutralize these people since d Kaduna state governor says he is in contact with them? Also don't forget that d governor of zamfara once proposed amnesty 4 arms 4d cattle rustlers. How do u give amnesty 2 foreign criminal elements if indeed they are foreign?

In my last post, I gave u d statements of 3 high ranking govt officials regarding this issue. First d minister of interior regarding d economic dimension of herdsmen crisis. D minister of agriculture regarding creating cattle colonies, and d minister of defence justifying d activities of herdsmen as a response 2 anti grazing law enacted in Benue state (myetti allah also supported this claim). Can u show me d Gaddafi connection in these statements? Is myetti Allah now being influenced by d "Confederate of Gaddafi remnants"?

"Several international organizations are aware of the effect of Gaddafi's remnants in Sahel Africa"
Did these international organizations mention Nigeria as a nesting ground 4 Gaddafi elements? Did these international organisations say Nigeria is @ risk from these Gaddafi people?

Lastly, what makes u different from a zombie/robot is ur brain. Google provides u with information. Google will not analyse d info 4u.
It is ur brain that u use in analysing information not Google. Education doesn't end in ur ability 2 read&write. That is literacy. Education goes beyond that. Education gives u critical reasoning, d ability 2 query happenings in ur environment. D ability 2 question long held beliefs. That's y they say education liberates. Cause u will always question things around u so as to find new and better ways. Not just 2 sit down, read Google, accept everything u hear or read hook, line and sinker without asking a single question. It was in d pre historic, traditional &theological age that people accepted everything that was told them. We are way past that now

Babacele:
it is you, Fayose and fellow fraudulent twisters that are most definitely out of context. PMB was right when he told The Archbishop of Canterbury even though there had herdsmen -farmers before we were born, the infiltration by Gaddafi's remnants has made it worse but he is doing his best to take care of the problem. But fraudulent intellectuals like Fayose and e-minions have been having a swell time deceiving stewpid people.
