privaldo: How many are Fulani in Nigeria. Even if you say that they have brothers in Africa, they are no more than 25 million. Yoruba in Nigeria alone is 40 million, and don't forget there are Yorubas in Benin, Togo, and descendants of Yoruba all over the world with strong ties to the culture. And then you add other groups in Nigeria, do you really think Fulani alone can withstand all of them? I pray it doesn't get to that point though, because it would destabilize all of West Africa 2 Likes |

privaldo: The Fulanis in CAR had much more control of state structures of the country than they currently do in Nigeria, yet they failed miserably at protecting 'emselves when the people rose against 'em. Nigeria is polytheistic and also multi-ethnic, that is one reason alone that will water down their influence over the army. As such, they can't have complete control of the army against Nigerians. The #EndSars "mini anarchy" is an uprising, somewhat like what happened in CAR. The security forces were simply overan such that they had no choice but to align with the people in some instances of palliatives sharing that we saw online. In the east, there were recorded cases of soldiers shooting protesters without the bullets having any effects on the advancing protesters. Security personnels that failed to retreat were simply mobbed or outrightly taken out. In addition, the military is overstretched and can only do so much to fight on the side of a non aboriginal group like the Fulani. There tool of religion worked in the North by placating the people until they took over every structure. This tool cannot work in the south most especially the South East. If push comes to shove, I doubt the Fulani hegemony will thread with caution in standing with herdsmen against the whole country and murdering majority. As a matter of fact, if this battle does not take place now, the Fulanis are already an endangered group that people are waiting for to have their pound of flesh post 2023. You can be sure they know this as well, so by then they will have reduced their criminal activities significantly and patiently waiting for another opportunity when they will have their own in power again to continue the evil. But of course that strategy is already known, so Nigerians are more woke. 3 Likes |

samdunzo: I don't really know how true the data about the population of tribes in Nigeria are but I can say that whatever crisis that erupts in Nigeria be it a war or a revolution, it would destabilize West Africa, the already unstable Sahel, and other parts of the world because there will be a refugee crisis. |

privaldo: Exactly why I don't want it to get to that point. Unfortunately, it seems like these Fulani guys in government positions are complicit in all of this. Because if not, this would have been handled all the way back in 2018/9 |

The entire Yoruba tribe including the monarchs and even politicians are speaking up now while the Igbos are mocking them. Tomorrow when the Yorubas eventually solve their own problems and Igbo problem start, these funny people will start pointing fingers to Yorubas as their major problem if Yorubas fail to speak up for them. Funny people. 3 Likes |

ceaser: They may not have total control over the country's military but they do control some of the most strategic military hardware in the country. In fact, some of the country's best military formations and artillery are situated in the North. I don't think the Fulani hegemony will caution the rampaging herdsmen or even deny them. If there's anything, we should have learnt in this country is that the Fulanis stand with their own regardless of the situation. The Fulanis are playing a game of slow, steady and consistent wins the race. Like you pointed out, they will wait out 2023 and continue to advance on their goals, although this can only happen if power rotates to the South, if not they will continue to have a field day. |

samdunzo: War is not by population ooh. It's by modern ammunitions, strategy, government support etc. |
Re: Alaafin Writes Buhari, Says 'Tackle Insecurity Now Before It’s Too Late' by privaldo: 6:47pm On Jan 22, 2021 |
samdunzo: The Fulanis in government are complicit because from their past words, and body language, you can tell they are fully in support of what is ongoing. We should just keep calm, and watch how it plays out, the coming days will tell if we would cease to exist as a nation or not. |

privaldo: They mean almost the same thing - a settlement or an abode of experienced warriors which later became family compound of sort. This was occasioned by the movement of troops from one location to another during the series of wars that were being fought at that time - Kiriji wars,Jalumi wars,fulani wars,Yoruba Revolutionary wars etc. After these wars,some of the warriors decided to settle permanently in the stations - towns where they were posted and became indigenes of those towns. For instance,former President Obasanjo (from Abeokuta),who is also the Balogun of Owu in Abeokuta has his roots in Owu town of Osun state. He is a descendant of Owu warriors who left for Abeokuta from Owu in Osun state during one these wars. Such settlements or family compounds can be found in almost all Yoruba villages,towns and cities. Ile = House Jagun or Jagunjagun = Warrior Therefore "Ile Jagun" literally means Warrior's house or compound. Ile Balogun Ile = House Balogun means Head of warriors. Therefore, "Ile Balogun" means Head of warriors house or compound. Oluode means Head of hunters. Therefore, "Ile Oluode" means Head of hunters house or compound. I hope you have an idea of what they mean now and their historical background ? |

banio: True. Modern wars are won by strategy, government support, and availability of weapons and the know-how on how to use them. |

samdunzo: They won't agree to restructure because it will ultimately lead to secession. Once the restructured regions performing well without other regions, and the central government, they will want more (full autonomy/sovereignty) to achieve their full potentials. |
