How many people get money to buy stuff for Niger and Cameron?. While people from Niger are bringing stuff to Nigeria. Let's wait and see which is better for them. People down south are only complaining about the fulani recent behaviour, instead of the leader to call them to other they are here shifting blames to the south and west. Buy the way does fulani farm anything other then rearing cows.
Even the hause that farms in the North are no-longer comfortable with their bushes because of the same people. So I ask should people seat, watch and get kill because they need food supplies that is not even free.

This is where maleducation fails ppl yet again. Southern food purchases exceed the actual overall food bills of Cameroon and Niger. Southern economic activity of 2 states (just Lagos and Rivers) is 4x that of overall Cmr chad n Niger.

Now northern Nigeria is adjacent to northern Cameroon (far North province) which is by far the poorest and most isolated area. No action there since Ahidjo left.

Niger is poorer than states like Kano, so cannot really productively engage them on broader activity. And with food, these places are sufficient on a subsistence level (nobody is asking for livestock from Nigeria in Dogondoutchi Niamey Zinder Maradi Garoua Maroua or Kousseri etc). Rather the best northern stock is gotten from them. They sell to us to make some money. Not to mention they have a collective viable market of less than 20 million ppl (across all those regions) and have poverty rates of 70% plus.

Cng arewa forum macban etc. Need to go to school again.

Because they forget that for all the poverty of northern nigeria it remains wealthier than Niger n Cmr Chad and BFaso....so it's funny to hear things like Maradi rail or issuee like this... who are u doing ? Where will the multiplier effect come from ?

You can even substitute your life for that miserable "2 pieces of Tomatoes"; it is that important,right ? I think some of you guys should just shut up your traps and spare us the senseless gibberish you spew around !

The bitter truth is that you need their food more than you actually need your lives !

Bunch of gluttons !
I hate arguing with unintelligent people. What has food got to do with your lives? They load trucks in the north and it ferries food to the South? What is insecure about that? LMAO

Congratulations to them! Hope they're ready for the division of Nigeria? We have never been hungry


Every region in the south - Yoruba, Igbo, Bini, etc; has enough land to produce food, meat and dairy to feed its people, and possibly export to northern Nigeria.

Arewa leaders started dissolution processes for Nigeria when the political and religious leaders of the 12 northern Arewa states adopted unconstitutional Islamic Sharia criminal laws in 1999-2001.

the government only have control over petroleum but the South can mobilise to stop it from going north and the nnpc reserve over there will run dry.

If the government is seen to favour or back them.
Then guys should turn off every pipeline that takes oil up north.

Medicine and other health products are majorly going from the South to the north. Kolanut. Rubber. Cotton. Hardwood and Education materials just to mention a few if stopped from going north by the South will reset their iq.

Noo brother, let me take you back to the cause of this problem

It was because of the Fulani herdsmen incessant attack on their host community that led to the reprisal attack of their business men

Don't even try to convince me that those business men don't know who those herders attack in their host community are
Very pathetic! what is the correlation between what is happening in bush with those innocent traders? Do u mean similar attacks that happened during Endsars protest is also linked to Fulani attacks?

This Luggard himself questioned the possibility of survival of the two different groups -northern and southern protectorates of GB �� he was merging into one country in 1914.


More than 4 million human lives have been consumed because of the merger since 1914. Racism is apparently what keeps the merger on.
Black Lives Matter. Unmerge Now!!

A merger not supported by factors on ground today can’t be allowed to continue.

Wow! so nice to hear this.

Now we can farm. We Westerns do not shy from farming.

If we reason this; why is north so hungry if they have abundant food?

Niger plus Cameroon is not a favourable market compare to the south. We pay hugely.

If we too cut trades coming from the west to north. wonder what will happen.
Re: Northerners Begin Diversion Of Food Items To Niger And Cameroon. by Rotimi47: 4:58pm On Feb 27, 2021
The south should retaliate in kind.

Stop medicine and health care products from going north.

Stop educational materials from going north

Stop kolanut. Cocoa. Rubber. Cotton. Hard wood from going north.

Stop frozen fish with other sea foods from going north

Stop finished goods from going north

Reduce the quality of vehicles and machinery spare parts going north

The price of above items in stock overthere in the north will skyrocket.

Save petroleum products and bitumen for the last.

The south is more powerful than the north when it comes to blockade as southern economy can withstand whatever they plan but northern economy will crumble fast if the South retaliate in kind

The correlation is that a tribe particular tribe rapes your women on their way to their farmland, maims their host community, kidnap and destroy their farmland with cows.

This same farmers cry to their state government to help them but the governor couldn't because a power above him is protecting the said sect

Those same people who reside in the bush causing has brothers who eats and dines with you evryday in the same community

How do convince such a person that those ones at the bush are not the same people at the markets

The best thing to do is to tell the whole people to leave

Now may I ask you, how many times have you heard of kidnapping, destruction of farmland and raping in that same community since Fulanis were pursued?

Maybe we should succumb to the North's blackmailing and we should start worshipping them so we can be buying cheap onions.

Yes, we have good soil in the South, but how many of us cultivates it, na we dey carry English for head with nothing to show for it, we've receded in what we excelled in: farming. Majority of what we eat comes from the north, not because we don't have the means, we are just too lazy to cultivate it and yet you all are rejoicing that they diverted a local supply to another country........
Southerners are not lazy, stop peddling unfounded lies. If southerners outsourced farming it's because it's not seen as a high profit business especially with the kind of farming practiced in Nigeria (non-mechanized). It's only natural to leave it to those who will be comfortable wasting useful time while earning peanuts. Why do you think America outsources labor to China?

The north strikes again and the president is quiet. Not until it has gotten to a point were it becomes it for tat and the south responds in kind will you see femi adeshina or Garba Shehu come to say some stupid words that tactically supports what the northern traders and conderm the southerners
as trouble makers.

The president has refused to openly address us and the current crisis rocking parts of the country hiding under the umbrella of the Presidency.

Did we vote the Presidency or we voted for a President, commander in chief of the armed forces.

Let the northern fulani traders remember that this is no longer 1967 were they had the monopoly power, generals in high place. There are people, both patriotic to their pockets and bank accounts and unpatriotic to the nation the will capitalize on this trend and start a game that guarantee to pockets swelling in cash.

They will influence the principle of tit for tat, south will respond in kind, watch the trend, find a loop hole, instigate violence, fund both sides the sit-down relax and watch as chaos reigns while smiling to the bank.

its quite unfortunate the the North play right into their gallery. it just a matter of time before things escalate. Well that is unless the president not the presidency acts as one and make his stand known

unfortunately, we have seen his inactions lately so all me can do now is hope and pray the this doesn't escalates further.

Truckloads of food items from the northern part of the country were on Friday stopped by northerners from entering Kwara State and neighbouring states in the South West. A video clip showing the illegal stoppage of trucks carrying food items from the North to the South at a Jebba village in Niger State by some northern youths circulated on social media on Friday. But the Defence Headquarters clarified that following the tension generated by the incident, joint troops comprising the military and other security agencies were deployed to clear the Jebba-Kaduna Road and they had since restored normalcy in the general area.

Saturday Tribune gathered that some Northern youths prevented many trucks carrying items like tomatoes, onions, beans, yams and cattle from going beyond a location in Jebba called Kara into Kwara or other states to the South West. The situation, it was gathered, caused the trucks to park by the roadside with some of their contents already going bad. The development, it was learnt, was connected to an ultimatum given by the national leadership of the Miyetti Allah Cattle Breeders Association of Nigeria (MACBAN) to the Federal Government which demanded compensation for the losses suffered by Northern traders in the recent mayhem at Shasha market in Ibadan, Oyo State, and during the EndSARS protest.
