Npf Has No Right To Speak For Northerners – Northern Group by rasputinn(m): 8:53am On Oct 07, 2010
NPF has no right to speak for northerners – Northern group 
By Mike Odiegwu, Minna   
Thursday, 7 Oct 2010   


A northern socio-political group, the National Democratic Forum, on Wednesday, criticised the position taken against President Goodluck Jonathan by the Northern Political Forum and said the northern leaders have no justifiable grounds to speak for northerners.



The National President of the group, Mr. Jonathan Vatsa, spoke to our correspondent in Minna, Niger State, while reacting to a statement credited to the Chairman of NPF, Mallam Adamu Ciroma that Jonathan should either resign or be impeached.



Irked by the statement, Vatsa carpeted the members of NPF and asked that “they should all resign from politics for impoverishing the people of the north or face divine impeachment.”



He referred to members of the NPF as a clique of failed politicians who had used their political positions to entrench poverty in the north while amassing wealth for their immediate family members, friends and cronies.



He said the leaders were crying foul of zoning not because they had interest of the general north at heart but because they viewed politics as their only means of creating financial security for themselves and their family members.



He regretted that “the legacies created for the general interest of the north by past leaders, like the Sardauna of Sokoto, had been plundered by the same politicians who are hiding under the umbrella of NPF.”



He wondered why the leaders, who, through government resources, sent their children abroad and create employment opportunities for them in juicy federal agencies, amidst rising unemployment, should claim to be championing the cause of the north.

I thank God that Nigerians are beginning to embrace good & vehemently opposing evil. I thank Jonathan Vatsa & members of the National Democratic Forum for putting to shame their northern elders. The elders who are supposed to act as elders have lost all sense of direction and are bent on plunging this Country into another civil war. But they will all reap what they are sewing & will continue to face disgrace. God will continue to keep Nigeria & her people together in peace, love, unity & harmony. Anyone who attempts to compound our problems will find himself taken out of the Country & will not believe what hit him. Long Live Nigeria. NAJALYN

Unfortunately, the sane guys who wrote this are the educated youths who are of course a minority in the north of the country. Ciroma and his cohorts have a larger number of illiterate boko haram types who'll kill anyone for their bosses,so far they get their free sallah food and meat. Ciroma and co are used to the rankadede they have enjoyed for generations.
The means to free Nigeria must start by educating her youths, but of course, if they do that how will their kids educated here get the edge when they go back home?
I only wish this kind of media stories go out on hausa radio in the nothern states and in hausa not turenchi. wink

I do not believe this Northern Group. . .

The way the North has acted throughout Nigerian history has said the contrary.

Who are these NPF, are they not the same set of leader that has made sure that the nothern part of the country continues to lag behind since independence.

They only want the status quo to remain.

Its time to do away with these set of old men. mscheeeew,
Re: Npf Has No Right To Speak For Northerners – Northern Group by abenelo: 9:24am On Oct 08, 2010
Ciroma nad his group has lost it. The North is not interested in blind politics anymore. Leaders who can attend to the need of the masses is what everyone wants.

I am not for or gainst jonathan but I think it is insane for some irrelevant selfish expired old fools to play politics out of a very unfortunate incidence.

GEJ gaffed when he hurriedly exonarated meant but that is not an impeachable offense neither is a mass muderer so called confession a fact that can be relied on.

The fact is that Presidents all over the world make mistakes that even cost lives and they are not impeached.
Bush took America to a hopless war in iraq, he was not impeached even at the height of his unpopularity home and abroad.

Thank God Nigerians have started seeing beyond the ethnic curtian that have been used by these self serving politicians to their personal gains. WE WILL BE GREAT AGAIN.

Is Adamu Ciroma ok? Why is he talking as if he is the father of Nigeria? This evil man should leave 9ja alone. He is campaigning for IBB so that he will give him chance to loot 9ja. Shame on him.

Five minutes later, he signed in as the GL, and said he'd been putting the guild through a test and that we'd Buy WOW Gold. He then proceeded to dress my husband down in guild chat for his comment, saying that my husband was wrong to RuneScape Gold "talking about him behind his back", and that if we were going to give the cold shoulder to new recruits, the guild was going to fail. My husband responded by saying that he hadn't intended it in a malicious way, and that the way a guild would succeed was if the members were more involved, not through tests and secrecy. Then my husband offered to leave the RS Gold, in order to avoid further conflict, which he ended up doing RuneScape Gold.
