Somebody sent his child to school along the line some unscrupulous elements abducted the child, transformed the child into something else, give him/her a new name and change his religion from Islam to Christianity. After police rescued children, as a leader you did not share the grievance with parents, neither condemned the act, but all of a sudden you want to jail the parents when you have not jailed the Kidnappers. As a leader you should try to stop the abduction first, charge the accused to court before you talk about the victims share of blame. Where on earth did you got the information that these 9 kids were Kidnapped while begging on the street? Some were Kidnapped alongside with their mother, they later released the mother and left with the children. Can you call all these as an act of neglect A child was on his way back home from school and he was abducted & someone tells me it is the parents fault. Besides, these kidnappings weren't just random, they were well planned and organised. Instead of blaming the victims of this atrocious act, you're blame the community. This is like blaming a rape victim. Just because u are privileged to be a leader by an accident of birth doesn't give u the right to speak so arrogantly. Indirectly he is giving the abductors an upper hand, because there is not a single sentence where he criminalised the abductors but he criminalised the victims. I need someone to help me point out a single statement in the entire write-up where the accidental emir condemned the abductors. *Just 1 is ok* **Modified** FriendNG: 43 Likes 8 Shares |

It seems living in Islamabad so affect the way some people think negatively. This is going to be a very wrong step, why not try to analyse the problem and give a fundamental solution to this common practice as seen in most part of the country |

I really feel sorry for those kids Sha and their mental health. You can imagine living a life on the streets begging, then you were kidnapped and sold in another state. However your new parents are feeding you well, changed your identity. Then you were found and given back to your biological parents that weren't taken good care of you. I wouldn't wanna be in their shoes. 114 Likes 5 Shares |

Emir Sanusi is too cerebral for the throne he sits on. A king must feel, not think! Sanusi thinks too much...sometimes hurts his message. The Emir made sense in this outburst but I believe it would be well received if he had repositioned somethings and achieve the same goal with tact, rather than this cold and detached blunt message...or dagger to the heart of the victims. Sanusi should not be rebuked for his statement. There is truth in it...but he should be admonished before releasing statement to press to compose it first as draft...keep it locked up....and give few days to calm and reflect before publishing it. 41 Likes 2 Shares |

You sound like one of those people that peddle hatred. Every issue is looked at from the negative side. An innocent advice by an emir to his people is used to propagate hatred on the Emir. He even absolved the igbos and blamed his people instead. Maybe you would have been happier if he condemn the igbos and absolved his people. Maybe you would be happier if the Kano state indigenes blame igbos for abducting their children and start attacking igbos in kano FriendNG:What are you talking about here? Maybe you are responding to another thread. In this particular thread, the Emir was responding to children abducted in Kano and found in Onitsha. As an Emir, you want him to stop the abduction and charge the accused to court? How? What powers does he have to do that? Where did you get the information that the children were abducted together or individuallyon their way to school? 3 to 5 years old going to school in kano? I thought you guys always insults the northerners for not sending children to school and turning them into almajiris? So now they all go to school? Please provide links where children were kidnapped with their mothers and the mothers later released. If is abroad (USA or UK), it's the parents fault. The police would blame the parent because it's the parents responsibility to ensure the child gets to and from school safely. Social services might even take away the child from the parent due to negligence. When Madeleine Beth McCann was abducted in Portugal 12 years ago, the parents were arrested by the British Police. Although they were later released due to public outcry, the girl was never found. That's what Emir sanusi has been trying to do. He wants to change the mindset of the average Hausa fulani. He preaches against the almajiris system, he advocates for the education of children, especially the girl child, he preaches against giving birth to children you can't take care of. All these have put him in conflict with the powers that be in the Conservative north.
Here is just 1; “;I am not saying others are not guilty , I know tomorrow people will start saying I am blaming parents for abduction of their children. I know my statement is always misconstrued. I did not say they are not guilty, but Hausa man himself observed in a proverb that ‘if the fly is stubborn, the candy is sweet’,” the emir said. 146 Likes 8 Shares |

FriendNG:Sanusi trying to awakening their reasoning!!! He's making a valid point!!! The truth is that EVERYBODY is to be blamed!!! What about those in school, kidnapped by Bokoharam From where I am standing no one is talking about Leah anymore except a true Nigerian, Reno Omokri!!! Not even her governor is showing concern!!! Government should pay more attention to the problems at hand!!! Had government sensitize the people the way Sanusi is doing right now, the kidnapping rate would have reduced or stopped!!! You know your people and you know what their lapses are!!! Make reasonable laws!!! Anyone caught with a child and it's confirmed kidnapping should face the penalty!!! You know that their major means of livelihood is begging, create jobs, don't just sit there, make an impact in the lives of people!!! That's why you were elected!!!

When I wrote here that those children were well fed and taken care of. And they were angry for being rescued no one believed me. A mod banned me for telling the truth. Now I hope that mod hide his/her face in shame. For this Emirs statement have revealed the truth and the truth hurts. If you abandon your child on the streets to be taken care of by strangers and that stranger decided to take your child home to give them a proper bath and good food, then why are you (the parents) angry because your child is given a better treatment? Is that not the plan all along. Or are the parents angry they aren't making cash returns anymore from their begging. 31 Likes |

FriendNG: Nobody in the east sends a 3 or 4 years old child to school alone, it's criminal negligence. I have lived in the North long enough to know what he's trying to condemn, parents allow too much freedom to their children which explains why teenage girls can easily hang around with men very late at night there, the Emir condemned both sides but he is specifically calling for the northerners to stop irresponsible parenting which includes child begging. An average almajiri in the North would be happy to be adopted in the east, the northern authorities are deliberately making much noise about this whereas most of those children might not have been really kidnapped but willingly followed those people due to prospect of a better life under more wealthy and responsible parents. 48 Likes 1 Share |

FriendNG: Leap before you look! Don't be first to comment and at the end of the tunnel you look like enormous boofhead or man that advertise to the world "I am a honourable Tom" go back and read the paragraph 7 of the Emir's statements everything you accuse him of been a bluff he pointed it out without missing words. He went further to prophesied about garbage people like you whom have the truth bury on their feet for religion purposes! using "misconstrue"= " misconception" (in case the word is difficult for you) Because he knew bigots, hypocrites, and fanatics like you will come with bombs and missiles instead of appreciation and love! You are very much like the Imam that send their children abroad to study but have and encourage the Almajiri to beg on their feet! to propel more; you are nobody but that man that is bitter about the truth, and a wet blanket whom have existed, have a future and pray no one to be like him. This tell the world how greedy you are! but the gate of heaven will prevail over the heart of darkness.

Now the blame game has started... Don't give birth to children if you don't have the emotional and financial wherewithal. Some northern parents deserve to be sterilised for the total lack of care of their offspring. The other day, there was news of a northern man, with twenty-something children, caught by undercover agents trying his child having successfully sold one earlier. His defense being "I have no money to take care of my family" Educate these people on the need for family planning. If they refuse then those with plenty children should be medically castrated 13 Likes |

I strongly believed that Emir know the true nature of the story until I hear from the so called kidnappers that take children off the street, clothing them, feeding them and change there religion it really hard to believe they are kiddnappers. Allowed newsmen get access to so called kidnappers because tribalism and sentiment engulfed this country that we are fast condemning people of other tribe without hearing from their on side of story , I'm not saying they aren't kiddnappers but let Nigeria hear from them. What I'm trying to said I know igbo people they are so kindhearted especially when it come to see little children roaming on street but I know there is bad people among them too. 9 Likes |

Emir Sanusi did not absolve the Ibo kidnappers of this crime. He is attempting first to raise awareness and self accountability....that is, criminals will always be around looking for vulnerabilities to exploit, the parents left their children open to for exploitation....he wants to teach a few a hard lesson so others can learn from it. He narrated painful outcomes in similar instances when playful toddlers accidentaly fall into wells because they were left unattended. I believe Sanusi took this coronation to add to his resume and to go down history as an Emir of Kano. I wont be surprised he abdicates his throne to run for State Governor in future. His style of ruling and aspirations for a better society is altruistic but in modern days monarchs do not have power to execute the kind of social evolution Sanusi has been lecturing about....that power belongs with a Governor. 17 Likes 2 Shares |

One thing about Emir Sanusi is his no-holds-barred interviews. He bears his mind on national issues not thinking of whose ox would be gored. He may not be perfect, just like every human being isn't, but he is forthright, doesn't celebrate mediocrity and he is fearless in telling the truth to those who need to hear it particularly those living in the leadership glass house. 17 Likes |

The only place this whole thing is coming from is in the North. I have not read anywhere that South East governors have found the culprits and arrested them. Why is this so? The Igbos need to speak up on their own findings. We can not afford keep silent while this fester and linger. If its true that such happened, can we see it. Why does the cry over this issue has to be one sided so far? What is the governor of Anambra doing? Wike was quick to silence them when they accused him of demolishing a Mosque. 3 Likes |

If he had attacked the Igbo tribe for the activities of a few I'm sure you would have commended him for the grammar he would have used and even hailed him as the best Emir ever! Just note that the victims were the wandering children who are most likely wondering why they had been brought back to dirt n hunger! Their parents were criminally negligent and in a sane, decent country, those kids would have been seized from them. In fact, prolific childbearing would have been curtailed both by legislation and policy! It is this irresponsible parenting and almajiri life that gives Nigeria the unenviable statistics of having the highest number of out-of-school children! FriendNG: 11 Likes 1 Share |
