The challenge of continually using propaganda to suppress reality is like covering a smoke with a cloth. The smoke will eventually find it's way out and fire outbreak may be the end result.
Nay we not get to that stage.
Why select what to accept in the AMNESTY INTERNATIONAL report.
Guess the national bureau of statistics is also lying about their figures
34webers: [s][/s] Vote in Buhari and herdsmen killing continues ~Atiku
That is a threat from atiku. The key sponsors of fulani should be very clear.
Buhari with 150 cows has a ranch while atiku with 1000 cows has no ranch. I know as simple as this is, ipob pigs can't still understand.
Baboon and dogs will be soaked in blood, remember who made the statement?
Some times its not about who you support, it's about saying the truth no matter what. But that's not one of the features of Buhari slaves.
It's like you guys don't have anything sensible to write more than IPOB youth? Anyone that doesn't agree to your opinion is an IPOB youth? Or anyone that doesn't support Buhari or act as his slave is an IPOB youth?
the president body language during herds men and farmers clash... proof that he was in support of the herdsmen... as no herdsmen was arrested by the authorities
There is no gain saying this fact. In case you dont understanding, you are very correct.

Go get a life slave!
[/s] It takes extra stupidity to assume that cat and dog will literally drop from the sky because of a figure of speech involving the two animals. I won't say more than that. Now, get out.

[/s] Lol at the dog poo being dropped in tranches. The stupidity actually lies in a flat skull which can't process the actual meaning of figures of speech but rather latch on its literal meaning to fool fellow illiterate ipob miscreants.

It will be unto you as those that have fallen over Buhari support for Fulani massacre of people in their ancestral home, from Lagos to Ife to Benue to Plateau and so on. No single Fulani has been arrested in this killings, it will visit your home. Time will tell. Kiss the truth.
Nigerian government never likes criticism, even when evidences are everywhere for all to see, they will shamelessly continue to deceive themselves denying the truth. and because we are a gullible people, they always take advantage of us.
Lol... Seems you are frustrated with life , don't pour your miserable and frustrated life on me..
Good luck
[/s] Shatap there. According to the dead brains following one albino hunchback around, we are going to see baboons & dogs soaked in blood, what a dog sh!t of brain. But let's even get it clear, is it jubrin that made the statement or buhari?
The video of armed forces men shooting at armless shiites has been etched in my memory. Denying the killings in this regime just shows how insensitive the government of today is.

[/s] Trying to switch lane, right? Anyway, if buhari has no hand in any of those killings, those prayers are certainly for you and your entire lineage. Trust me, it will come to pass. But is it jubrin from sudan you are talking about or buhari?
it has always been the custom of APC to claim good report of this administration but to dismiss their shortcomings as politically motivated especially by the main opposition party - PDP. how they aim to go higher with governance through this approach remains an enigma.

you're the one that lacks the comprehension of the figure of speech and instead of asking for the literal meaning, you resort to claiming stupidity.

BUHARI's silence over the killings and later on blaming Gaddafi's men among others are indications that he fully supports the bloodthirsty herders. so anyone in support of the continuous of this evil government because none of his/her relatives died while fighting to protect their inheritance/asset(land) and farm produce; should be ready to taste the agonies of those who lost theirs.
Below is a press statement sent to politicsNGR by the Presidency;
The first thing to say about Amnesty International’s Report: Setting the Record Straight is to thank the organisation for confirming a fact stated time and again by President Muhammadu Buhari that the conflict between herders and farmers in Nigeria is not about religion.
There is equally a confirmation by Amnesty International (AI) that it is being stoked by local politicians and that this whole problem is about scarcity of resources.
Beyond these, the report has raised our concerns about the validity of their evidence-gathering. It is like knowing the facts but drawing the wrong conclusions.
Still, Amnesty International got some of its facts wrong. It is not correct to state in any way that the problem between farmers and herders is a new thing over the last three years. It has been happening for over 100 years. Colonial Powers Britain and France had regularly recorded these conflicts which are available in Archives.
It is equally untrue that government has done nothing. Alleged human rights abuses have been investigated. Clashes have been reduced through government’s actions.
This progress is due to the strong determination of the administration to punish rights violators no matter who they are, including the military through Orderly Room trials, Court Martials and the regular courts.
This administration has given absolute freedom to the National Human Rights Commission and set an important record by paying compensation to the victims of the rights abuses. The Apo Six, for instance, had received compensation to the tune of N135 million. Just a few months back, the President signed the law against torture.
In an interim report in October this year, the International Criminal Court, ICC, stated that:
“The Nigerian authorities appear to have taken concrete steps in fulfilling their primary responsibility of investigating and prosecuting ICC crimes. While there seem to be a tangible prospect of further proceedings against members of Boko Haram including high level commanders, at this time, the same cannot be said of NSF in particular since the Nigerian authorities deny any allegations against the latter.”
Every country experiencing any level of insecurity or insurgency either as a matter of external aggression, or even more sensitively, internal conflict is confronted with complex and sensitive issues. Nigeria is no exception.
The government is very much concerned about the sad and unfortunate loss of lives and properties, and the collateral broken/threatened communal relationships and societal mutual trust occasioned by attacks our nation has experienced.
As a nation, we remain unrelenting in securing our country, and restoring peace in troubled areas. Although the complications that attend internal conflicts are present in Nigeria, the courage to confront both the conflicts and their complexities remain a matter of priority to this Administration.
Indeed, reputable global organisations have recognised that the efforts of our security forces, who work tirelessly to secure our communities, are yielding results. An example of this is the recently published Global Terrorism Index Report, 2018, which acknowledged the effectiveness of Nigeria’s counter-insurgency operations, stating that:
“Total deaths from terrorism in Nigeria fell to 1,532 in 2017, a decrease of 16 per cent from the prior year. The decline follows the 63 per cent drop in deaths in Nigeria in the preceding year, and a 34 per cent drop in 2015. This highlights the effectiveness of the counter-insurgency operations undertaken in Nigeria and its neighbours, Cameroon, Niger and Chad.”
Curiously, the Amnesty International report, “Harvest of Death: three years of bloody clashes between farmers and herders in Nigeria”, appears to be inconsistent with the Report above. Global Terrorism Index Report is considered a credible source even for Amnesty International covering the same period and the same terrain.
However Amnesty International in addition to stating inaccurate casualty figures misleadingly alleges that the government has failed to protect affected communities and refused to investigate, arrest and prosecute perpetrators of these attacks. Nothing could be further from the truth.
This administration has continued to work ceaselessly to enhance security in affected parts of the country, ensure that victims are provided with relief, and that criminals are arrested and prosecuted. It is careless and mischievous to misrepresent the facts and thereby mislead the public.
Our security forces are not going to be deterred, neither will their morale and effort be affected by any tendentious report that mischaracterizes the important sacrifice they make to protect citizens at great risk of injury or death.
It is the global norm and custom that assessors and commentators are fair and factual in their reportage and accounts of incidents and situations so that they do not endanger the lives of security personnel or worsen conflicts. Nonetheless, our security forces will continue to intensify ongoing and new multi-pronged approaches to conflict resolution.
The Federal Government welcomes fair and constructive assessments aimed at dousing tension and promoting mutual communal confidence, safety and security, but rejects inflammatory statements, reports or assessments that stoke tension and deepen mistrust and thereby intensify conflicts and violence.
As part of a more comprehensive intervention and response to the violence and conflict, the Federal Government deployed security forces to affected areas, empanelled fact-finding missions, and repeated visits and engagement by the most senior government and security officials/special forces including the President as well as relocating command and control apparatus to such areas. Further, the National Economic Council established a 10-man Committee on farmers/herdsmen clashes, headed by the Vice President.
These high-level security operations and attention have led to the arrest of many people responsible for perpetrating violence. As a result, relative calm and peace have been restored to many communities. There have been 500 arrests, with many convicted and as a result, relative peace and calm have been restored in many of the affected areas. Of particular note was the arrest and conviction of Alhaji Tashaku Aliyu and others who were apprehended in connection with the killing of 2 priests and 17 worshippers at St. Ignatius Catholic Church on April 24th, 2018 in Benue State. In addition, seven herdsmen that were involved in the kidnapping of a farm owner have been sentenced to life imprisonment by an Ondo State High Court.
Beyond the security measures, President Muhammadu Buhari also authorized a mechanism and released NGN10 Billion for the rehabilitation of farms and farming communities to provide relief to affected areas. During a visit to Nasarawa State in February 2018, the President also reiterated his condemnation of the violent conflicts and their perpetrators and his administration’s commitment to protecting citizens and mitigating their losses. He said:
“I also want to assure the people of the North Central and indeed all Nigerians that the federal government is working day and night to ensure peace and stability return. We have deployed additional resources to all the affected areas to maintain law and order. The attacks by suspected herdsmen and other bandits will not be tolerated. I appeal to all Nigerians to refrain from reprisal attacks. The security agencies have standing instructions to arrest and prosecute any persons found with illegal arms. I will once again express my condolences and sympathy to all the affected victims of these barbaric acts,’’
This position was again reiterated by the Vice President, Prof. Yemi Osinbajo, in June 2018 during his visit to Plateau State, where he held meetings with community leaders and condoled with the people.
A vital component of our successes or any success in similar conflicts is accurate reporting and credible intelligence. We encourage reporters to be accurate and citizens to provide information about known or even suspicious activities or persons to ensure we succeed in preventing attacks, and eliminating this scourge.
Finally, and in the interest of openness, the Federal Ministry of Justice is analysing the Amnesty International Report for further responses, and actions where applicable and necessary.
The Federal Government also appeals to communities not to be provoked or inflamed by this misleading report to seek or pursue reprisal action against others within their communities, but to remain assured that the government will continue to take steps to secure citizens and promote amicable conflict resolution as well as peaceful co-existence.
No one has the right to interfere with the sovereignty of another state. All presidents of nations are equal in the world body. Nigeria has its own responsibility to its peoples and cultures, only Nigeria can decide it's destiny not Amnesty International. Stand up to bullies. Remember the slave trade and then colonialism happened because of outside interference. Africa is rising and envious eyes are noticing.
Wasting fellow citizens lives for just marching on the street means nothing to him. But he will spend Nigeria's billions treating himself abroad to preserve his own life. Then ask Nigerian citizens to pray to God to spare his life!

I will agree it is a threat you agree that Buhari's statement in defense of BH was self-indicting. Buhari exonerated Abacha and shamelessly collects the loot when repatriated.
Its been hardship after hardship. Killings after killings. By next year, Nigerians will kick them and their bigoted leader back to Daura.
Hope I spoke the mind of sensible Nigerians - not Zombies?
why do need assurance from the crowd? Speak your mind.
abi your dopamine level too low? Go to FB
Buhari did a good job, considering the circumstances, he campaigned when crude oil was $110... But crude fell to as low as $40 in a few months of his arrival.
