Apparently worried about the
myriad of challenges that has
plagued the region over the years;
youths under the aegis, Middle
Belt Renaissance Forum has vowed
to work together towards restoring the lost glory of the
region.

In a meeting in Abuja over the
weekend, attended by
representatives of youth groups
from all the states making up the Middle Belt Region discussed
extensively on topical issues
confronting the area.

In a communique issued by its
convener, Comrade Jones Simon
Alfa, the forum urged governors of the region to be mindful of their actions and inactions. It said:

“The Middle Belt Governors
should sit up to their responsibility
of governing the people who
voted them to power instead of the sudden primitive accumulation
of wealth at the detriment of the
suffering voters.

“The Middle Belt Youths will no
longer take the recklessness of the Governors in arresting Media Practitioners ,Bloggers and Social
Media Crusaders e.g Kaduna
Governor and that of Kogi who are clear examples.”

On the Biafra agitation, and attacks by herdsmen, the forum said:

“The Middle Belt is not in any
way part of the Northern agitation for the Igbo’s to vacate by 1st October. We have been living with the Igbo’s peacefully in our localities and will not join in the call for secession.

“All herdsmen should vacate the
Middle Belt Region before 1st
October, 2017 or there will be total war if they are not ready to live in
peace.

“The core North should to stop
using the Middle Belt people in
achieving their selfish political and
economic aims and objectives as
was the case in the past – We are
not Northerners,” the statement said.

Once the murderous herdsmen leave our lands, some level of sanity will return.
enough of this killings

I'm Igbo but i was born in Jos, it pleases me so much these days to see Plateau people disassociating themselves from Hausa.

The best solution in Nigeria is to create multiple republics. If not we may keep deceiving ourselves and living in both poverty and corruption

I can hear drums of war....
The agitators and their families will Run and leave the people following them blindly when the 'gbege' go start.
Be wise fellas, that is if y'all feel like tho'.... Its optional!!

A divided north. I have always known this.

Its good to see the Middle Belt taking independent stands on issues - not always aligning with the core North, acting as willing tools.

The coward diabolical scratched tiger face conehead afonja can merge with core north for all I care...ritualistic winchy people who can't sight the moon by themselves... Spit for a coward

God is at work, Nothing last forever under the sun......?

Soon things must surly fall apart in Nigeria
Their plot against other region will turn out to be a hunting shadow for them... then they will know that they are all alone!
This is the script they are using for other region in Nigeria
