Joenyam:
Shehu Sani, the senator representing Kaduna Central has revealed why Northern elders are quiet on the incessant killings of innocent Nigerians in the North.

The lawmaker who has continued to voice out on the killings of Nigerians in different parts of the country said most political elites from the North were quiet just to avoid being tagged or labelled, ”anti Buhari or anti federal government.”

Sani said with their continuous silence, the elites have succeeded in saving their neck while the neck of the masses are massacred.

He wrote on Facebook, ”Most political elites from northern Nigeria are not loudly speaking out against the mass murder going on in northern Nigeria, perpetrated by Bandits, armed Herdsmen or organised Criminal gangs out of fear that they may be tagged or labelled as anti Federal Government or Anti President.

”The elites save their necks by their silence and the necks of the masses are continuously slaughtered.”

The reason why most developed countries have better economy and political environment is because everyone is critical and speaks out. That's why if a government official does something as little as a sexist remark or misconduct, they call for his/head in unison and they'll most times release a public statement with their letter of resignation. We have a long way here if you can't speak out.

Shehu sani allegation doesn't make sense

Sorry but I'll have to disagree with shehu on this one, they are silent because they're the sponsors... this is a planned jihad. How did the herdsmen got hold of brand new Russian Ak47 Kalashnikov automatic rifles that's worth from $2800 to $3600(over a million naira) each.... I won't fall for that poo mr Sani

Its because those who go about with Kalashnikov are armed criminal gangs and hired mercenaries. A typical fulani herdsmen will never spend 1million naira to buy a riffle. These criminal gangs are the ones involved in armed robbery , cattle rustling and serves as hired guns for those fulani that have been wronged and seek revenge

Shehu Sani 4 President in place of Buhari

The North - Their Problem...

If you've been giving money to those fulani/hausa kids/parents down south, I implore you to stop it this instant, let them go back to where they came from. They can't continue to hold the South to ransom.

This picture depicts you. Don't think you are safe, they can be more brutal when they get to your zone.
Wise up and let us all nip it by the bud.

please, we need to defend ourselfs

Shehu Sani is part of that elite. He should not come here to act as if he is a saint. He has now found his voice cos 2019 is coming? Useless hypocritical senator like Ben Bruce. Don’t complain. U re in government and part of government so u too share the blame. As a lawmaker u are at a vantage position to enact laws to effect the much needed changes. Show us what u ve done with the milllions u get as constituency allowance?

You need political education, lawmaker do not enact law. A law can only be enacted by lawmakers.
Again what is the connection between condemning herdsmen killings and constituency project?

Guys, are you sure this man is an Hausa/Fulani man.

I hope they don't eliminate him and his family soon o like they did Kano Resident Electoral Commissioner and his family.

Stupid politician. Why didn't they speak against the masacres of yesteryears? The truth is they don't speak out because of the ethnic and religious divide and it is the same with me because i won't blink an eyelid even if you animals in the north are slaughtered like the cows your people are.

....since u claim is jihad why not start ur Crusade (the christain version of jihad)....and ak47 is the most mass produced weapon on earth, so u can get it easily on the black market...it must not be necessarily be "tear leather" because ak's are not really produced again but re recycled around the world....and common is no jihad, no one is gonna islamize u....and d whole Fulani shit does not fit the jihad definition, no one is forcibly converted to Islam....though u might call it genocide now...sani is right in a way, buhari ironically is loved so much here in the north, a contrast with that in the south.Though is not surprising, they tend to love der own....the elites won't want to be seen badly because of going against buhari, so preferably keep mute.....tomorrow der will be another "music", a different issue.... Just one of those topics that will come and go and another problem arises....u guys just hyping the Fulani people and so called agenda

None is safe until all is safe - I personally don't need the North to feel safe.

Actually the elite north live in fear of the growing mass of illiterate poor who are slowly becoming armed, we the rest of the country are the common evil, we are the whipping boys, take us out of the equation and see the uneducated mass feast on the elite rich,it will be bloody when it happens I tell u
,its a vicious circle between the rich north and poor north, the rich keep the subjected in penury and want while the poor rever them.just one idea sown, one lynching and the north will envelope in flames
.we as a country are spending billions fighting an unending war why ,because the north refuses to educate its people,they let children roam the streets like feral dogs... Believe me,the Christian south is the only thing stopping the poor turning in the rich

i swear. Few months ago, a friend said he doesn't give them money. I tried to beg on their behalf but few months later, I now understand he is right.

I used to before but not anymore - I feel no sympathy towards helping them anymore.

since it's a black market,that's to say the guns will be more expensive cos running such business is quite capital intensive. You'll agree with me that a Herdsman in the bush herding some cow for one rich Alhaji will be the brain behind such guns coming in from Libya as you assumed

It will be cheaper. It's different from forex black market. It's all about quick money for d seller cos d product is readily available in d market.

Shenu Sani has nothing to lose if he had decided not to voice out, 2019 or not 2019.

how come you knew about the 5k price tag...

ortom couldn't speak out initially cos he assumed that they were mere criminal elements just like the FG will always make us believe until he saw the slow response from that government in tackling the menace, from the ig's comment to the arrest of the militias set up to protect the people, the presidents silence over the killings, they couldn't even come out and proscribe this marauders publicly.. that's when Ortom knew that this seems like a planned attack and he reject giving out the grazing land to the FG, calling on all benue citizen to defend themselves...my problem is, this people was in a haste to tag IPOB who only have seminars, share handbills and posters as terrorist and can't even condemn these known herdsmen killing people everyday who are know terrorists according to global terrorism index..and why is it that rate of these killings increased now that their brother is in power?...

You are totally drifting off point. Retrace your steps back to the first comment and let's focus on the main topic. The point I have made is that Shehu Sani has spoken the gospel truth; I cant even imagine how anyone could possibly argue over that. The reason why many northern elite who should be speaking about this are quiet is the same reason why no southern elite with affiliation to the ruling party is also talking about it. It's all because of political expediency, no one wants to jeopardise their political careers/ambitions by seeming to castigate the president.
