herdsmen didn't kill any soldiers. it was either the farmers or the villagers in benue/taraba that committed this atrocity and made it look like it was the herdsmen.

we all know that the herdsmen are peaceful people who go about their business without meddling in other people's affairs, but some evil elements from PDP are doing all they can to tarnish their good image, all in an attempt to discredit sai barberr.

To my Igbo people on Nairaland, pls take note.


Talking On Nairaland and insulting or praising Kanu/IPOB will not secure the East.

Get into your labs & workshops and start secretly developing the necessary things that can stop these Buhari backed terrorists once they step their feet on Igboland.

Start acquiring & developing the necessary knowledge, skills & things to secure the East.

The Ijaws are the only ethnic group ready enough to defend their homeland.

They are already in the East and waiting for the right time to strike from intelligence report available to the security agencies if you care to inquire from your love ones & friends in the security system.

It is time to be proactive and not reactive.

Tell Emma powerful & Uchemefor that words through their radio station will not secure our homeland.

gidgiddy, kettykings, Fulaniterrorists, firefire etc match your words on Nairaland with your actions in your labs & workshops.

These Buhari backed Jihadists mean business and can only be stopped by those well prepared.

Fulani herdsmen can never conquer the South East. they can only do flash damages once in a while like they do in Enugu but can never hold any South Eastern state hostage like they are doing in Benue. If they try it, what happened in Awka and Onitsha in 2004 will be child's play.

No fewer than five soldiers have been reportedly killed and two others kidnapped after suspected herdsmen clashed with some personnel in Logo LGA of Benue State on Sunday.

The attackers also burnt down Army patrol vehicles during the clash.

MC EBISCO gathered that the herdsmen had wanted to attack a village in Logo but where foiled by the Army men.

The confrontation resulted into fire exchange between the herdsmen and military personnel.

A resident of the area hinted our reporter that the herdsmen overpowered the soldiers and whisked away two others.

The only thing special about the military is that they are legally allowed to carry guns.

Take that away, they are nothing special. Herdsmen and BK keep proving that they are not extra-ordinary beings.

This article was written by Femi Adesina the current Spokesperson to President Buhari in 2012 after the demise of Ikemba Odumegwu Ojukwu.
Hmmmmm...... Plz read;

THE ABURI ACCORD THAT WOULD HAVE SAVED NIGERIA FROM ALL HER PROBLEMS...( but aborted by the Fulani Oligarchy)

By FEMI ADESINA( current spokesperson to President Buhari)
In December 2009, I was at Aburi, while holidaying in Ghana. We Nigerians call it A-b-u-r-i, but the Ghanaians pronounce it as E-b-r-i. For those who have read widely about the civil war that we fought between 1967 and 1970,

Aburi is a significant place. This was what I wrote about Aburi, after returning from that journey:

“Aburi. Beautiful, serene Aburi, set daintily atop a hill. It is home to a botanical garden that is 119 years old. But for us in Nigeria, Aburi goes beyond just nature and its preservation.

It is the town where General Yakubu Gowon and Odumegwu Ojukwu met, to try and avert the Nigerian Civil War that lasted between 1967 and 1970. They came out with Aburi Accord, which later broke down. And a shooting war started.

You could see the Presidential Lodge on a hill, where the Nigerian leaders had parleyed at the behest of Ghanaian leaders. It all ended in futility.”

As one of the key parties to the Aburi Accord, Dim Chukwuemeka Odumegwu Ojukwu, returns to mother earth today, it is also apposite to return to Aburi, and look at the letter and the spirit of the accord once again, an agreement that was violated by the Federal side, and which made a bloody internecine war inevitable.
For most part of 1966, the northern part of Nigeria, particularly, had been turned to killing fields.

Non-natives, especially Igbos, were killed in thousands. Many fled, many others were displaced. There was complete anarchy in the land. The average Igbo looked up to Lt. Col Odumegwu Ojukwu, military governor of the Eastern Region, to provide leadership and direction. He did not fail. He picked the gauntlet and championed the cause of his people.

By January 1967, the drums of war were loud and clear, reverberating across the length and breadth of Nigeria. But there was a last ditch effort to prevent what was imminent. There was a peace meeting hosted at Aburi, in Ghana, by the then Ghanaian head of state, Gen J. A. Ankrah.

At the meeting were Gowon, Ojukwu, all the military governors of the regions, and some top civil servants, both from the Federal side and the Eastern region. The meeting held on January 4 and 5, 1967, and came out with what is popularly known today as the Aburi Accord.

The agenda of the meeting consisted of three crucial issues: (i) Reorganization of the Armed Forces (ii) Constitutional agreement (iii) Issues of displaced persons within Nigeria.

The two-day meeting reached consensus that were acceptable to both sides. Among others, it was resolved that legislative and executive authority of the Federal Military Government was to remain in the Supreme Military Council (SMC), to which any decision affecting the whole country shall be referred for determination provided it is possible for a meeting to be held, and the matter requiring determination must be referred to military governors for their comment and concurrence. What does this mean in simple language?

The SMC would run the affairs of the country, but not without consulting the regions as represented by the military governors. This was something akin to federalism, even under a military government.

Other terms of the agreement include that appointments to senior ranks in the police, diplomatic and consular services as well as appointment to superscale posts in the federal civil service and the equivalent posts in the statutory corporations must be approved by the SMC. What does this mean again in simple language? Equity, fairness, true federalism.

Other matters like the holding of an ad hoc constitutional conference, fate of soldiers involved in the January 15, 1966 coup, rehabilitation of displaced persons, etc, were also amicably resolved, and the conferees returned happily to Nigeria. Only for the Federal side to deliver a blow to the solar plexus: the Aburi Accord, Gowon said, was unworkable, and he reneged on all the agreements.

Using the Eastern Nigerian Broadcasting Service, Ojukwu played the tape recording of the proceedings at Aburi repeatedly, to educate the populace on who was playing Judas. Later, he made a broadcast in which he said: “we in the East are anxious to see that our differences are resolved by peaceful means and that Nigeria is preserved as a unit, but it is doubtful, and the world must judge whether Lt. Col Gowon’s attitudes and other exhibitions of his insincerity are something which can lead to a return of normalcy and confidence in the country.

“I must warn all Easterners once again to remain vigilant. The East will never be intimidated, nor will she acquiesce to any form of dictation. It is not our intention to play the aggressor. Nonetheless, it is not our intention to be slaughtered in our beds. We are ready to defend our homeland.”

In a piece I did last December, shortly after Ojukwu passed away, I said he was virtually pushed into war by the infidelity of the Federal side to the Aburi Accord. I still stand by that position. Ojukwu was called ‘warlord’ for many decades, but he was by no means a warmonger. He only did what he needed to do for his people–and for the country.

As his earthly remains are interred today, it is tragic that Nigeria is still submerged in the morass that Ojukwu already identified about 45 years ago. Today, bombs go off like firecrackers in the country. There is agitation for the review of the revenue allocation formula.

There are strident calls for the convocation of a sovereign national conference. Even some component parts are threatening to pull out of the federation if anything happened to their ‘son’ who is now in power. Didn’t Ojukwu warn of these landmines ahead? Were all these issues not already settled at Aburi?

Foremost journalist and media administrator, Akogun Tola Adeniyi, in a recent media interview, explained the Aburi Accord this way: “Let every region be semi-autonomous and develop at its own level.” Yes, that was the spirit and letter of Aburi, but which sadly became a road not taken.

And is that not why we are still suffering today, living in a rickety and decrepit country that can burst at the seams any moment? I tell you, Ojukwu was a prophet, and like most prophets, he had no honour in his own country. Pity. But whether we like it or not, there’s no way we won’t return to Aburi. Willy-nilly. I only hope it will be sooner than later, before Nigeria goes to grief. On Aburi I stand.

Federal Government was perfidious and duplicitous on Aburi. It is still the same way today. That is why as Nigerians, we are most times disillusioned, dismayed, dispirited, dejected and depressed. When will change come to this land? Our hearts are getting weary.

Last December, I wrote that Ojukwu should be buried like a hero. I’m glad at the rites of passage so far, culminating in the interment today. Yes, bury him like a true hero. An icon, an avatar, deserves no less. This generation will surely not see another like Ojukwu. He fought not only for his own people, but for a true federation founded on justice, fair play, equity and rectitude. Unfortunately, he did not see the Nigeria of his dreams. Will we? Adieu the Ikemba, the Eze Igbo Gburugburu. May your soul rest in peace. Ka nkpur’obi gi zue ike n’adukwa.

By Femi Adesina

"THE QUESTION IS, CAN HE ( FEMI) STILL BOLDLY WRITE THE SAME ARTICLE NOW OR ADVICE HIS PRINCIPAL ON WHAT HE WROTE?

You see, most of these people know what the truth is but will rather look the other way when they start eating.

In the end, it will remain a merry go round of follow my words and not my foot steps.

We are just postponing dooms day. If we do not do the needful, doomsday will remain inevitable.@RiLtd Ridh.

Then he went to work for the owners of Nigeria and lost his conscience.... exchanging his humanity for a plate of porridge. Nigeria can never develop. Ikemba was simply asking for what we call restructuring today. Still resisted by the status quo while Gowon's village lies in the cross hairs of all manner of violence and the clandestine expansionist ambitions of socio-religious mauraders. I pity Gowon. An old man full of regrets he cannot express, rather wishing death before the inevitable ignominy to come.

My dad wept when he saw side by side images of Gowon's wedding complete with a towering cake side by side with hundreds of dusty, naked, starving and dying children, courtesy of the BBC. He was too ashamed to go to work the following day in London, couldn't face his colleagues as a proud black man from a great nation. Today, 50 years after, the nation remains in constant tension, sporadic violence and body count akin to civil war status persists. No progress has been made. It appers the ink on the Aburi accord all these decades has stubbornly refused to dry.

People are rants on killing of soldiers by herdsmen, boko haram are more deadly than herdsmen but they reduced to nothing by Nigerian Army, killing of soldiers is sacrifice for the Nation you know how many civilians will escape during firefighting becos even herdsmen are afraid of death. This news is one sided new can the journalist asked the herdsmen how many casualties they have before miscreant started jubilating on soldiers death, if not soldiers how many civilians could have died by now.
