The Speaker of the House of Representatives, Hon Yakubu Dogara, has challenged northern Nigerian elders to raise their voices against the endemic insecurity in the region just as they did during the administration of former President Goodluck Jonathan.

Speaking in Lafia, Nasarawa State at the campaign of the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) Thursday, Dogara noted that their silence on insecurity in the region could be taken as enabling the poor management of security in the country, especially in the north, a situation that continues to threaten our democracy and the very foundations of the country.

He condemned sycophants, who elevate some public office holders to the status of God, saying that by so doing, they bring destruction upon the country and called on all Nigerians to rise up and rescue the country from the clutches of insecurity.

“Just like my last speech to Nigerians that were gathered in a rally like this in Gombe, I said that the 2019 general elections is not about President Muhammadu Buhari, it’s not about Atiku Abubakar, but I said it is about you who are gathered here and it will be a referendum on insecurity and hunger in this land.

“On the issue of insecurity, all of us know what is happening in Borno and, unfortunately too, between Abuja and Kaduna, as well as in Zamfara, Katsina, Nassarawa, Benue, Plateau and even Sokoto States.

“Now, I cannot even mention all because it is a general problem in the county, but I was highlighting the states where the problem is more endemic as of now. The issue is this, when this thing was going on under Jonathan, we had Borno elders always speaking.

“Where are the Borno elders now? Where are the leaders of Northern Nigeria now that this problem has become endemic? What are they saying now? Are we not guilty of what we allow? Are we nit reaponsible for the killings by our enabkith to say that enough is enough and demand aa of right that President Buhari puts and end to this or leave if he cant?

“The truth is that if we don’t rise up to the endemic challenges now, sooner than later, if things continue this way, we are not going to have a country. So it is our responsibility to rescue Nigeria from the clutches of insecurity. Without security; we would not have a meaningful democracy.

“The sad reality in Nigeria is that by our silence we have condoned those who have been unable to effectively tackle the insecurity in the nation. We have have wittingly become enablers of evil. You know what enablers do? Enablers don’t build a country only courageous people do.

“What enablers do is that they instigate the worship of individuals and the office they occupy, they Will confuse such an individual with accolades. You know none of us was built to receive worship, anyone who attempts to receive worship will meet destruction in his wake.

“So that is why we are witnessing destruction in Nigeria, because we have elevated some human beings to the status of God. We now need to rise up and rescue our country from the clutches of insecurity.”

he has spoken like a man

So it is our responsibility to rescue Nigeria from the clutches of insecurity. Without security; we would not have a meaningful democracy.

That is exactly what we sane, honest and hardworkig Nigerians are doing right now.
We will always pray for BABA as he is doing everything to clear the evil foundation the evil party left behind.
That is the more reason we wil vote for continuity.
God bless our President MUHAMMADU BUHARI.
God bless Nigeria.

To All lovers of Buhari, the image below is for you all.
Let them know.
Stay blessed!

Where are the Borno elders now? Where are the leaders of Northern Nigeria now that this problem has become endemic? What are they saying now? Are we not guilty of what we allow? Even the governor become lifeless and resort to crying.What a shame.

The silence of the northern elders is no longer golden.

Under Jonathan, it was thunderous, laced with the dangerous fervor of ethnic and religious connotation.

The same incompetence is on full display now.

Aside from Sheik Gummi and a few honest others, most of the northern elders are either afraid to speak up or are simply hypocrites.

Eye service

when dey lifeless wasn't listening to them wat do u expect

That's 2 tell u dat they are all HYPOCRITES and TRIBALISTS

black man!!! Politics is a joke in nigeria...


Just a bunch of failed actors on the national stage

The only thing necessary for the triumph of evil is for good men to say and do nothing according to E.Burke. i am not in anyway surprised that the northern elders especially those from Bornu have suddenly become deaf and dumb over the issue of insecurity which is ravaging their region, they should continue keeping quite like shy little children until the wahala many of them gave active and passive support to swallows them.

True words man

Meanwhile, madness comes in different forms. Someone above me is seriously losing it......


Ciao

A woman was complaining about her husband being a cheat. She divorced a d went to remarry a man they said was a saint. Mr saint turned out to be a wife beater. D woman go just keep silent na. Na wetin happen to northern elites

Lol

If only the Northers would sincerely see the Southerners as their brothers and sisters, Nigeria would become truly great.

One of few times he has said something that looks like truth.

But Dogara is not to be trusted. He betrayed his party leadership for selfish interest
