Thank you, you can imagine Jerry gana talking, these set of politicians that finished this country with their greed and massive loot are here chosen side for us, for ur information you are not our representative so therefore you cannot speak on our behalf, just go and rest ur head. We don't need you speaking for us, unserious old men. Don't be surprise he is speaking from a religious perspective, because I know them, they are good in dividing us along these parts religious, ethnic, region, state etc ........old men retire pleasessssssssss leave Nigeria for us to build......thank you.

Shut up there you ignorant online commentator How many tribes made up taraba state? I bet your ignorant self don't know this. Do you know hausa/fulanis are the majority ethnic group in taraba state? Do you know this? Smh

Jerry gana is what you said? Haha, the clown is just a CAN sadist. No one takes him serious. Isn't jerry gana from Niger state again? Pray tell me, who is jerry gana when former ex-presidents from that state are listed?
That's a big lie from the pit of hell. How would you says Hausa/Fulani are the majority tribes in Taraba. If the are the majority as you said, why have they not test the seat of power in the state since its inception? Don't say what you don't know pls.

This is precisely the logic and mindset that has gotten us to where we are today : What is middle belt forum? Hear the hardly concealed scorn in your words, your contempt, your condescending arrogance! The middle belt are not a people fit to have their own forum unless they are joined to the Olympian gods in the North.
It's high time we all cured our minds of this outlook. It has not helped us as a nation for 57 years. Let us try a new option where everybody is respected, every ethnic group is given EQUAL access to opportunities in this country. Thank your stars that Orkar's coup did not succeed. You would not have been here asking what is Middle Belt forum.
Ignorant talk. I'm very sure you a NC Christian. And I ask again, who made you folks the spokespersons of a very complicated secular region called the north central? Do you share the same opinion with a Muslim from the north central? The muslims that made up the majority of the folks in north central aligned themselves with the north itself. And you don't see them creating silly forums to call themselves one ridiculous name. The last election should have told your d**k skull were the north central stands. Buhari won in all the states there.

I don't even have any problem with the very few of you from the north central that always want to divide the north central along religious line(e.g is what this clown called jerry is saying), but I will continue to ask you, who made you very few folks in the minority the SPOKESPERSONS of a very porous north central region?


Like i said earlier, there are more hausa/fulani in the north central than any other ethnic group. So where do you keep them in your ridiculous 'middlebelt' nonsense?

Right here on Nairaland I urge all Nairalanders from the South East, South West and deep South to call us what we wish to be called : MIDDLEBELTERS. Jacob changed his name and his destiny changed. We want to change our political destiny and I invite all of you to our political baptism. We are not North Central but Middlebelt. Do not help to consolidate and perpetuate the powers that want to hold this country hostage.
This is imperative. Let us unmask once and for all the powers that want this country to go to pieces.
We say NO to Northern hegemony
We say NO to North Central categorization
We say NO to Fulani herdsmen despoiling farms, killing people in the middle belt and everywhere else in Nigeria
We say NO to those clamping down on the drive to restructure Nigeria and birth a nation.

Let no man think that I hate the North. I don't. I just want a good, just, equitable, developed country. Shikena

True words.

It's about time we carved our own identity, which won't be a difficult feat to achieve.

A good number of our people already identify as middlebelters, not northerners. All that's left is to change the political categorisation.

To think our politicians allowed this to happen in the first place, I must admit that I am disappointed.

The next move shall be to get them to withdraw from membership of the ACF and form a united middlebelt front instead.

It is not IPOB. The terrible injustice we hv suffered in d last 2 yrs is more than enough. Our stock of patience which is proverbially inexhaustible hs been completely exhausted. If you hv witnessed hw our people hv bn slaughtered in cold blood like chickens then you wl know what we ar saying. Worst still, inspite of this unjustifiable killings or genocide, you wl never hear the so-called Northern leaders or their spokepersons like the bigot called Prof Ango condemning such attrocities, not to talk of taking proactive measures to stop the attacks. This hs left us wt no other option.
lol...only 2 years of injustice and you are already crying like this, this shows you how patient Igbo's have been with Nigeria. Igbos have suffered injustice for almost 5 decades (50years) in this unholy contraption called Nigeria.


Funny thing is that when igbos complain of the marginalisation and ill-treatment, it's you idle belters that will join the bandwagon and try to shout Igbos down, now the core north are just about giving you a taste of their evil born to rule mentality, and you suddenly found your voice of injustice. When it's time for election, they regard you all as north and use you as a tool to achieve their political aim, but when it's time to share juicy portfolio they concentrate only on the Hausa-fulani core north

Truth is, the earlier you speak out against any form of injustice irrespective of who is suffering it, the better. Remember that karma is a bitch. It's high time you middle belt especially Christians know that on a good day, the core north see no difference between you and southsrners

Good morning . Better late than never.

If only you guys knew that the Hausa Fulani core North see the middle belt as a conquered territory. Listen to the ahmadu Bello's speech on YouTube and how condescending he referred to you guys (northern minorities )as willing tools to achieve their selfish, political domineering agenda.

The time to wake up is now. You guys have better enlightened your people and begin to speak up openly and forcefully, and there is no better time to do so than now.

Thanks to the spirit of Nnamdi Kanu and IPOB

During election, NW will see you as part of North.

WHen it comes to nomination of people for appointments, NW see themselves as the North.

When it comes to taking advantage of opportunities NW see themselves as the North.

When the fulani herdmen were killing and raping middle belters, did they remember you are part of ACF or did the killers differentiate between Middle Belt Muslim or Xtians or Pagans?

They have hood winked you for too long and rise up to the vision of JS Tarka and the time is NOW.

You guys need to pull out of ACF and form a stronger Forum for the Middle Belter You have allowed the Fulanis and their conquered Hausa slaves to control your narratives and image for too long.

First I was very civil in my address to you. Your words in reply are full of vulgarities and insults on persons and groups. Clean your mouth henceforth because if I join you on this rough journey you want to drag me into be sure that I will soak your head inside the gutter of extremely vile and abrasive words that will shock you and leave you gasping. Let us converse. I least expect insults from you particularly when I did not insult you nor any other person for that matter.

For God's sake quit this talk I have read so many times here on nairaland 'who made you spokesperson of the middle belt or spokesperson of Urhobos, or spokesperson of the Ijaws' etc. It's boring and empty. Crass talk - that is what it is.
We speak. We speak. We need no group or forum recognised by you to do so. Deal with it: Professor Jerry Gana as spokesperson of the Middlebelt forum has spoken the true mind of at least a section of the middle belt. And that truly matters to me and to alot of guys. Your attitude here mirrors that of Igbos in their grasping of the minorities in the South.
When Junaid, Yakassai, Ango speaks do you gather the effrontery to shut them down and ask them who made them spokespersons for Arewa, do you hurl insults at them? No! You don't because they speak your mind and their words is music to your ears. When Jerry Gana does, you heap invectives on him. Shame, shame on you.

Muslims in the middle belt? Guy you ain't sleek enough. I will not fall into such a poorly concealed trap. Let them do whatever they want to do, let them align with the North if they want to. It's no biggie. Infact even Christians in the middle belt who want to can align with the North.
Una want people to align with una, una want one nijeria but una no want equity, fairness and level playing field. What are you guys afraid of?! What!!!! Restructuring will save you guys from yourselves!!

This is the hottest topic on Nairaland today. No doubt.

Broadly speaking, there is awakening in Nigeria today. Many are finding their voices and the so-called minorities are beginning to realise their strength.

For instance, the Niger Delta may comprise of minorities but resources wise, they are bigger than most. The middle belt may comprise of minorities, but politically and population wise, they are the mainstay of the erstwhile North.

All I call say is, you are welcome all. The new Nigeria is being birthed
