Middle Belt, Benue And The Civil War by Profitbase: 9:39am On Apr 27, 2018
Dear Benue people, no time is too late to congratulate you regarding the epic events in your state.If not because of the life involved, I would have said let the killings continue in Benue state because it is good for them.Where is your Paul Unongo?Is he tired of leading the Northern forum with his unguided mouth against the Igbos?Maybe he doesn’t know that “Food is Ready” is not for free.The real restructuring of Nigeria would have happened in 1967 after the Aburi dialogue in Ghana spearheaded by Ojukwu, but Gowon manipulated and used Benue extracts like Onoja’s family who not only stopped the move but killed many Igbos.They claimed to be more North than the caliphate, they said they are one indivisible North.Not long ago, Paul Unongo and other Benue indigenes said IPOB is a terrorist group that deserved no mercy, they insulted Igbos and claimed Igbos are a problem of Nigeria.Now the music is steadily at their doorstep, they should stop complaining, stop disturbing other states, don’t demonstrate because the demonstration is terrorism too. They should just dance their music.
They thought that only the Igbos will forever suffer the injustice.The same people attacking Igbos for wanting to separate from cow lovers are now begging to secede from North to South.That Enugu is close to Benue doesn’t make them a Southern state.Benue should enjoy their North alone, we don’t need them in the South anymore because they are now a conquered Fulani territory, a hard truth that people will never believe but a mission accomplished by the Fulanis.The very mission the Fulanis couldn’t reach after conquering Kwara and moved to Benue but resisted and denied such opportunity by the powerful Tivs, they finally or about to accomplish that mission in the 21st century.Yes, Tivs are powerful and strong people when it comes to war.They chased Fulanis after conquering Kwara, and their war eventually met British colonialism and it stopped.But for the fact that a Fulani man is a memory man, the case of Benue state today is not just all about Cow but a Fulani agenda, the agenda they failed to fulfill long time ago.
Not considering the above history, Benue state indigenes in 2015 still gave a die-hard sectional Fulani man a massive support of 373,961 votes.And you expect the Fulani man to go against their collective agenda.You are wasting your time.When we fail to read history, we repeat history.Benue state people failed to read history, and they repeated history.So, how does that concern Modestus?To people of Benue, I say congratulations again.You can only enjoy it because it is part of what your one Nigeria you asked for represents.Whatever goes around, comes around.Yesterday, the victims were Igbos, you clapped and cheered the killers. Today is your turn and no reasonable Igbo will sympathize with you because PUBLIC SIN DEMANDS PUBLIC PENANCE.And until those Christians in the middle belt understand they are not the original owners of North, the massacre will continue and flimsy excuses will always be given.The matter will still end without arrest and punishment.Call me an Igbo extremist, that’s my name because not only that extreme actions demand extreme response, an objective madman is also better than an educated lunatic.
To other Nigerians, I heard that Herdsmen are new colonial Masters in Nigeria and they need colonies with their AK47s?And some people are supporting the idea of giving them colonies for peace to reign.Pls, which peace are we talking about here?A group that goes around with AK47 and other dangerous weapons and can kill at will without being arrested is the group you are advocating to be pin down in your backyard? Go back and study Fulani history.Firstly, they are polygamous in nature.With the aid of their polygamy, they can born a state within a year and loves conquering. Once they install an Emir in that your village land, they will not only lay claim to the land given to them for animal rearing but the entire village, from village to entire state.They are heartless, they can finish your entire village within 2 hours.The Fulanis really want to actualize their long-term plans publicly said by Ahmadu Bello in 1960.The establishment of Cattle colony is a master plan.Those who proposed this cow colonies are supposedly people in government who want to use their office not only to benefit their business but to plant Fulanis among every tribe in Nigeria in a bid to recolonize the primitive tribes of Nigeria.So they pretend as officials that they are helpless before the herdsmen, allowing them to cause havoc at will without a single consequence.They just want the victims to be afraid of the herdsmen and accept any proposal by the government.Before the cow colonies, they proposed a similar nonsense which is now unpopular.That’s the reason Buhari is constructing a railway to the Niger Republic to bring more Fulanis to Nigeria to complete Usman Dan Fodio’s Fulanis colonization mission.Everybo
dy will live and remember Nnamdi Kanu.
Do you still need further investigations to know where those agents of the death get their weapons from?This is new Nig, this is change, things have changed.Social Scientists know that when transcendental forces like herdsmen operate incessantly, a new order is on the horizon. A man who repeats an action is asserting a right to that action.The unjustifiable silence of Buhari is acceptance because, in law, silence is acceptance.So, lamentation will never save anyone.
People should stop making themselves object of sympathy by appealing to pity.Being a Christian doesn’t make you a Coward and prey to Fulanis.Fighting your enemies does not make you a sinner.Sadly, but true, the world is a place of war, sorrow, tears, bloodshed, pains, and injustice.No one will come to your rescue, not even this Fulanis government.That’s why we need to guard ourselves, defend ourselves, fight the oppressors.The assailants understand this better than the oppressed and won’t allow the oppressed go until unless otherwise the oppressed stands up and demand freedom.Stop being defenseless and fight for yourselves and that of posterity. Nnamdi KANU said it, some people insulted him, thank God for the reality today.All the government does is to preach their rhetoric “peaceful coexistence”.Modestus is telling you today that there is nothing like peaceful coexistence or it only exists in the book.Don’t be fooled because they won’t ensure justice.If there is peaceful coexistence, let them walk without bodyguards.Dear Christians, if we so much believe in being the descendants of Abraham, we should also be as brave as he was.Read your Bible very well, all great men of old testament led and fought very well for their people.You can only ask God for his grace to overcome. God can only fight your spiritual battles and give you strength to fight your physical battle.Stop all these fasting and praying and rise up, Fulanis are gradually reducing your population and take your land.I talk real, I hate pretends because I hate deceiving myself.Neglect to your own peril.

You people should stop writing unnecessary and insensitive articles over this unfortunate killings in Benue and other states in the North.
May I remind you all that after the Jihadist are done with Middle belt they will finally come for their real target Igboland?
It is indeed for our own interest that these killings stop immediately.
Instead of mocking them we should be busy planning on how to defend ourselves when they finally come for us.

Bro, I don't think the Benue people mentioned in the write up, actually spoke for each and every child of Benue State when they condemned IPOB. Neither do I think every Benue person including those killed in these attacks, fought for or supported killing of Igbos during the civil war. Many people including some Nairaland commentators were not even born during the war. As of today, we have Igbos who have married people from Benue and other States and vice versa. While I agree with you that we can't just wish away the past, it is good that more people and groups are realizing that we are collective victims of people carrying out war crimes, genocide and ethnic cleansing. Beyond internet rhetoric, the new-found understanding should foster collective angst, oneness amongst the oppressed groups, mobilization to register and/or collect our PVCs and do the needful at the polls. It is unfortunate that many people including some online commentators do not have PVC and some who have, have no intention of voting! Do we pay the price to queue up under the sun and the rain, trek or walk miles to vote? Instead, we are divided and divisive. God help Nigeria for vain is the help of man (especially one called a politician)!!

Mocking them is bad but coming to Igboland after middle belt is not their target because they fear Biafra restoration, Igbos have already fought and rebrate their land from conquest, their target is middle belt and South West.

You said my mind. Any type of mass killings in igboland today will trigger the dreaded monster Nigerians are very scared of which is the restoration of Biafra. Those remaining Igbo one Nigerianists supporters will be left with no other choice.

The north knows it and that's why there haven't been any mass killings since IPOB started their campaign.

Having PVC is good but thinking that pvc can be used to remove a power hungry terrorist from power is like chasing shadows.

Yes off-course, the world powers will start revisiting the Nigeria-Biafran war and it will be an easy ride to Biafra independence.

Imagine all their threat before but later back out on the killing of the Igbos living in the north, they have been properly advised by their evil game planners.

But that was before IPOB started their mass protest on the streets which later became a much bigger movement when Nnamdi Kanu was released from jail.

Now the north is scared of giving igbos reasons to support Biafra. Another mass killings like nimbo will be a major triggering event.

Pa Unongo, how market? Your brothers in Benue are being massacred on a daily basis and driven out of their lands by Fulani Jihadists.

And you thought Nnamdi Kanu was a fool for wanting his own separate country?

Buhari still has roughly one more year to go. By the time the Fulani Jihadists have finished dealing with you people in Benue for the next one year, you people will finally see the light Kanu saw long ago.

Fulani Killers are here to teach people like Unongo the real meaning of "one Nigeria"

, that is not possible the way it is happening in Middle belt, there will be another civil war.

This is not boasting but a reality, the core north know it and will never try it.

By now Benue people should have raised a militia to fight their common enemy. Its blood for blood. A Fulani man is just a human being like you. They have guns you say ? You can also get your own gun by just going down to nnewi and pay some local people to help you fabricate one. This is the time to take your destiny into your hands and stop being a coward.it is better tot die fighting than to be slaughtered like a helpless chicken.

I can assure you my friend, no one is mocking them. The pains of the people of Benue state at this moment reverberate through the body and soul of every Igbo person who witnessed or has been made aware of the events that culminated into a civil in 1967.
Aside from feeling vindication for Ojukwu's effort to pull the Igbos away from this rigged cesspit, most of us were greatly shocked at the how the rest of Nigeria reacted to Nnamdi Kanu's attempt to rekindle awareness about this Structurally defective structure doomed for inevitable collapse.
We are shocked that Nigerians have such a short memory, unable to put one and two together to make a simple future projection.
Anyone who doesn't yet see a clear pattern in the killings and the security forces responses in Benue and nearby Christian communities is a blind and drunk fool.

It befuddles us that the strategic defenders of Buhari and his jihad government are Southerners. Festus Keyamo, Sagay, etc.

Let Nigerians wake up.
The Buhari jihad government is no longer a matter of politics of APC or PDP.

It is a simple case of EVIL vs good.
