Every body shouting Nigeria should break is fc.king stupid, 1.) do you know how devastating the outcome could me? 2.) how much blood will be spilled with all the different tribes ,regions etc in Nigeria attacking one anouther ? 3.) most of you are in diaspora yelling that nonsense /ishh . don't you know that ,that your favourite uncle or friend could be the one catching a stray bullet? And 4.) on a different note don't you know this is what the Nigerian 'elite' and the west want ?, the point is to cause confusion , unrest ,tension and would love to see a civil war so they can profit of us even more And you think the U.S predicting the disintegration of Nigeria by 2015 is a fc.king coincidence? think again. |

Have you lived or spent time in the North? If you did, you would know that the Northern Muslims hate their Yoruba counterparts with PASSION and call them baerebe( meaning Fake Muslims in Hausa). Do you understand in most cases, Yoruba and Hausa's worship separately? In fact, they don't spare Yoruba Muslims in crises. @Olodostein I don't know what Olodo means but you are a self confessed OLODO! You are an ignorant person trying to teach the unenlightened. So "Bayerebe" in your hausa dictionary meaans - Fake Muslim? How far will you guys go in ensuring that hatred is escalated and maintained? My elementary knowledge of the Hausa grammar tells me that Bayerebe = Yorubaman just as Balarabe = Arab man, Bafillache = Fulani man, Bagobiri =Gobir man, Bahaushe = Hausa man and Bature = European (because Turai means europe in hausa so a person from Turai is called Bature) and so on---where did fake muslim come into this? 1 Like |

Akanbi_edu: Alimi was a Fulani scholar who was well traveled within Yorubaland before settling at Ilorin after invitation from Afonja. His son Abdulsalam became emir after Afonja was killed. exotik: He was eliminated because of the covert Fulani plan to take over Ilorin without waging war. The Fulani needed an outpost in Yorubaland from which they could conquer Yorubaland like they did to Hausaland. Solagberu who was the leader of the Yoruba Muslims from Oke Suna was also killed even though he had aligned with Abdulsalam and had equally turned his back on Afonja. Although Solagberu was killed because Abdulsalam thought that the Onikoyi of Ikoyi had submitted to his rule while Solagberu, Timi of Ede, and Toyeje the Kakanfo had laid seige at Ikoyi. At the end of the day, it wasn't about religion; it was about the Fulani need for power. exotik: Heading out shortly, will be back to answer this. 1 Like |

naijaswiss: It's the choice of nigerians to split peacefully(Soviet-style) or to split violently(Yugoslavia-style). I would prefer peaceful separation or we negotiate the basis of living as one country. Oops, we are spilling so much blood already in this phantom unity and stop deceiving yourself, nigerians are fighting an undeclared war. More blood are spilled in nigeria each year than in some war-torn countries. Never mind, any of my relation, me or my tribesmen or yours can still fall casualty whether we are at war or in this phantom unity |

My mum once told me that a lecturer of hers who was an Hausa man declared during lecture that IF HATED YORUBAS But didn't know why. This is to show you the level of hatred- and we are still talking of an educated man that was supposed to know better. Try and imagine what goes on in the mind of the complete illiterate.

something tells me the whole crisis in Nigeria with respect to Boko haram is been funded and orchestrated by outside forces. The situation in Nigeria bears similar resemblance with what has happened in other countries like sudan. This is just text book divide and conquer playing out in Nigeria. People have to realise that there is a cold war going on between china vs USA and in my opinion the USA is trying to breakup Nigeria. They so called predicted in 2008 that Nigeria will split up by 2015.Now they are putting their plans into action. We should be aware of this and not make it into a christian vs muslim issue. Obama was the biggest fraud played on the black people's of the world and he is going to deliver Africa on a platter of gold to the international banking forces and corporations. What is needed in Nigeria to prevent disintegration is true federalism where every state control its resources and use it for their state and can sell to other states. The FG only function should be to keep the peace and protect citizens rights. But if we are to breakup as the western forces with the americans at the head intend then be should get on with it peacefullt and ameekably to prevent a full blown civil war. |

nagoma: You may call it whatever you want or spell it which ever way you want. The fact remains that they HATE you with passion. The worst is that you are simply in perpetual DENIAL. Go to Kurna(which ever way it is spelt) and say that to them in person. Lets see if you will not come back here as a kuturu. You people are just so afraid of them. Now what do you say to an Arab man that calls black African Muslims, "Abeed and zucka", meaning Slave and follow follow monkey Muslims"? It is HYPOCRITE like you that I am trying to expose. |

Before we all break out in civil war consider this: Rwanda - Tutsi vs Hutu The Rwanda president's plane (he was Hutu) was shot down. This was the key and final trigger before the genocide of the Tutsi. Now many years after, CNN reports that it was a Hutu supporter that shot down the Hutu president's plane.

@slam7000 Both Generals Diya & Buhari wept , but for different reasons. As for condom use you cannot take a shower shower under an umbrella - even if it's not a PDP umbrella. Paying the Yorubas to fight will be wasting spare parts money , when they come, it will be owambe all night with us! The name , igbo is difficult to conjugate so we figured out their commonest request "Nyem Miri" and is your name -Inyamiri. A bit like "Beke" for everything white. |

This is amusing> u be craze man nagoma: Thank you Katz. I have been in ilorin several times and pretty much amazed at the level of harmony between the Fulanis and the Yorubas in that town and its environs. Some of those Ilorites, who speak only Yoruba language even claim Fulani ancestry. The Fulanis on the other speak Yoruba fluently without dropping their lifestyle even in dress mode. I really would like to know more about that Ilorin episode. Is there a book you can recommend? Katsumoto: |
Re: Nigeria Heading For Civil War – Soyinka by Katsumoto: 11:42pm On Jan 11, 2012 |
Akanbi_edu: There are three very good books. 1. History and Social Anthropolgy by I M Lewis - This book details the Dan Fodio plan to annex Yorubaland. It has chapters on other cultures such as the Romans, Scottish, Benin, etc. It doesn't go into further details about Yorubaland. 2. History of the Yorubas by Samuel Johnson - This mostly covers everything Yoruba but is often criticised for being too Oyo-centric since it was written by an Oyo man. Nonetheless it is an excellent book. 3. Hegemony and culture: politics and religious change among the Yoruba by David Laitin - Another excellent book Akanbi There are actually very few Fulani in Ilorin, there are more Hausa (called Gobirawa) who went to Ilorin as refugees and slaves during and after the Fulani conquest of the Hausa states. These hausa formed the infantry for Afonja's army when he attacked Oyo and feel more Yoruba because of the suffering felt from the Fulani. They gave allegiance to Afonja's descendants because they both had a dislike for the Fulani. |

[size=16pt]Absolutely right! Does anyone need to be told where this is heading to? Never mind, everyone will get quantum satisfaction from this evil you lot are encouraging in our country when the trouble you are cooking up starts to bubble. Make una keep stiring up trouble - soon you would find out who would suffer most from it all. Remembers, the cabals, the former military juntas, ex-presidents, former and present Chief Justices and their families will be heading to the West leaving you all there to rot. Make una get on with it! [/size] |

Diya cried.i was there wallahi. , i dont like the way you refer to igbos as spare parts dealers, have some respect man, i didnt make my money through auto parts, i made my first one million naira at the age of 17years selling ABA MADE plastic kettle to your people.ask any of your brothers.i was very popular in those days.that was when ugwu awusa was ugwu awusa. |

Nigeria will not go to war. We who do not have any other country to run to or backup 'get-away' transport that is waiting/ready in case anything goes wrong must resist all temptation to violence and continue make our protests peacefully no matter how many we are in any protest crowd. The Nigerian masses will peacefully win at the end. |
