"Buhari Should Retire" - Cardinal Onaiyekan by Letenwam: 10:10am On May 05, 2018 |
A Cardinal of the Catholic Church and the Metropolitan Catholic Archbishop of Abuja, John Onaiyekan who reacted to the recent killing of two catholic priests in Benue State, slammed security agencies, who he said have been watching as herdsmen slaughter innocent citizens of the country even in their worship places. Cardinal Onaiyekan, who maintained that living in peace was less expensive than going to war, however insisted that the people would not continue to fold their hands and die on a daily basis. According to him in the interview with Sun, priests in Benue State may be forced to pick up arms and defend themselves against being killed by rampaging herdsmen. “They have not done so. That is not our way and I don’t think they will. And I am hoping that we have not reached that stage yet. But you could reach that stage. “Yesterday, they killed us, the next day, they killed us, the policemen are around and they have done nothing. And the police are given guns and they don’t use them. “The Army comes and moves around and nothing happens. They are not going to wait for me to tell them what to do. They don’t want that to continue and all we have been telling government is please, don’t push people too far. “It is not possible to tell us that Nigeria is unable to secure our territory. We cannot believe it, to tell us that it is beyond the possibility of the police; that the whole Nigerian Army with the billion naira and the billion dollars budgets that we are spending; they still can’t keep us safe. “And they want me to believe that? We can’t believe it, which is why we are saying no, there is something seriously wrong which must be addressed quickly because at the end of the day, everybody is going to suffer. “As you know, most of us, at least, are pleading that we live in peace with one another because living in peace is less expensive than going to war. Also, when you go to war, who wins? “Whoever is stronger wins, not who is right. The Pope used to say that we must replace the right of force with the force of right. That is where we are now. Don’t forget that somebody (Gen. TY Danjuma) who ought to know did make a statement about get ready to defend yourselves. “And he should know what he is talking about. And he clearly accused government of collusion. That is serious. “For various reasons, personally, if he (Buhari) came to me for advice, I will tell him it is time for retirement" Cardinal Onaiyekan said. https://lailasnews.com/herdsmen-killings-its-time-for-buharis-retirement-cardinal-onaiyekan/ 39 Likes 3 Shares

From my observation so far, Nigerians see these killings as the normal thing, just few people are voicing out against it. The aggression with which we are calling this menace out is not enough at all. If it were to be Oyinbo country and just 2 people shot dead by miscreants,, social media would be agog with noise from celebrities, religious leaders, political office holders and Nigerians alike. Thank God for this cardinal though. You'll see updates and status like " _pray for Manchester"_ _Feeling sad with Japan_ _Mourning with France_ _Praying and fasting for Germany_ Even to the extent of using these countries flag as dp, cover photo, profile pix etc. But here back at home,, Fulani herdsmen can wipe out a whole community for all they care. Nigerians hypocrisy stinks to high heavens. 119 Likes 11 Shares |

the peaceful religion people would say he's biased for saying a words in defence of his people but we applaud muric that big headed man for shouting to protest against hijab that has no effect to their humanity ask them what hijab had brought to their humanity they won't ve say, 80% of this hijab girls ain't virgin, yet they still carry it for head. this made me see their religion as mere culture rather than what religion is expected to be, religion considers human in all the law and custom but theirs says different say no to killing in middlebelt. you can bomb yourself for all I care in other Muslims states e no concern me 7 Likes |

Christians have woken up to reality that in order to prevent our Children and unborn generations from becoming permanently enslaved by Moslems and Satanists, we need Political Power! And we need to unite because it is our senseless lack of Unity and Love that has made us to be slaughtered this long. The unprecedented Christian empowerment platform is here! Register now, it's still FREE http://cppower.org Deep political secrets are being revealed there. Also, local and international Job Vacancies and other Opportunities shall be constantly announced so that Christians can get them before our enemies do. If you just want to get by in Life instead of impacting the World for good, then you are part of the problem. JESUS commands us in Luke 19:13 and Genesis 1:28b to Dominate and Occupy till HE comes. 7 Likes 2 Shares |

For a whole ArchBishop Onaiyekan to say this it clearly reiterates what some of us have been saying for months now that Nigerians have never had it this bad ...Onaiyekan never said this during Abacha govt ? He never said it during Abdulsalams govt , he never said it during Obasanjos govt , he never said it during Yar Aduas govt and he never said it during GEJs govt and so for him to say it today under this evil Buhari clearly scores there is a lot of truth in school of critics that say this Buhari govt has been the worse thus far .. 10 Likes |
