Gen. Babangida Backs Danjuma, Warns N/delta Ex- Militants Against War Threats by Johnnyessence(m): 6:24am On Feb 06, 2015 |
Former Nigerian Head of State, General Ibrahim Badamasi Babangida yesterday warned the Niger Delta ex-militants to desist from making provocative statements that are capable of creating violence and threat to the peaceful co- existence in the country. The general gave the warning Wednesday while being interviewed on the Hausa Service of Radio France International (IFR), on how he viewed the ex-militants’ statements on the 2015 general elections. This warning is coming following a war threat by the Niger Delta ex-militants who said if president Goodluck Jonathan lost 2015 presidential election, the country would be broken. Babangida said the ex-militants should be careful and watchful of their words, saying that they would be seriously dealt with if continued to make such inciting comments, adding that elders would not in any way allow people to put the country into confusion. He said, “We would not fold our hands and be watching some unpatriotic citizens making nasty utterances. It is uncalled for and not acceptable. Whoever is not wishing good for the country, we will deal with the person. “Anytime I hear such nasty comments I become worried because I know what it takes. No reasonable soldier will accept such utterances. I know what war is all about because I was once in the military. I could remember when we were at the battle field. It was not an easy task. I am still having bullet wound on my body. We know what we have suffered before the country remains as one entity. So they should be careful, “he added. On the issue of Boko Haram insurgency, Babangida called on both Muslims and Christians to put their hands on deck to fight the dreaded Boko Haram. thecallng.com/2015/02/gen-babangida-backs-danjuma-warns-ndelta-ex-militants-against-war-threats/ |

[b]It is sad to see many anti-progressives call Buhari names because of his tribal accent. Igbo's , Yoruba and Hausa's all have various ways of speaking and pronunciation due to our mother tongue. When i watched father Mbaka's video, his accent was obvious when he pronounced OIL as OYEL but does that makes him an illiterate? General Buhari reads, writes and gives speeches in English, but the hatred by some Nigerians will never let them see that fact. The most supporters of this present administration are the Igbo's. They see this as an opportunity for them to avenge what was done to them during the civil war. They never blamed Ojukwu who started a suicide mission and ran to ivory coast leaving them to their fate. This is why they will never see anything good in Buhari even if GEJ does nothing, they are contented. Had APC presented Fashola, Atiku or Kwankwaso , they will still find reasons to vote for GEJ and label Apc candidates bad. This hate is not about buhari, it's the way they feel they can get revenge for refusing to allow them form their Biafran territory. They call Yoruba's slave to the North and all sort of names. They are a petty tribe. Its unfortunate the disunity of this country originates from their region. In 2011, we all saw GEJ as a messiah and we voted him en-masse irrespective of his tribe and religion. We thought he would deliver us from years of misrule due to his humble look and name GOODLUCK. Nigerians did not vote PDP but GEJ. Then Yoruba's were not tagged slaves for trooping out to vote for him en-masse. They said APC and Buhari promised to make Nigeria ungovernable. My question is why can't these people be arrested if the statements tagged to them were true GEJ is the commander in chief of all forces in Nigeria and it baffles me how a civilian in Buhari can make his government ungovernable while he sits and watch without taking actions. Isn't that a high level of incompetence? Good luck Jonathan is the worst president we ever had in this country. The misfortunes of his administrations exceeds the so called transformations. I urge everyone to vote wisely Sai Buhari [/b] |

IBB, Danjuma and other Northern generals keep forgetting that they are no longer in their 20s and 30s when they displayed "false" bravery. If push comes to shove, the Oil well owners and former rulers of Nigeria will only start blaming Jonathan. Nobody has a monopoly for violence. Even if Buhari wins, and sends the whole of Nigerian army to N.delta he will only succeed in quickening the division of this OIL UNITY. Siddon look na dog name. |

lookingforjob: I am only interested in why Ojukwu should be blamed for the war, but Shekau is not being blamed now? Rather than blame Shekau we are blaming Jonathan. . Secondly, have you forgotten that the Yorubas where set to vote for Buhari in 2011 before Ahmed Bola Tinubu made a U-turn just before the polls after striking the so called 'deal' with Jonathan. And because the Asiwaju has made a U-turn, the Yorubas who follow the Asiwaju unquestioningly equally made a U-turn. Incase, you my message is not clear. Think deep if there is anytime the majority of Yorubas refused to tow the line of the Asiwaju politically. WHY? The simple reason is that the Yorubas lack the will to make their own decision within themselves and for themselves. Their so called "Political Leader" must help them make up their mind. If that is not Slave Mentality, I wonder what is? |
