Former Aviation Minister Femi Fani-Kayode has reacted to purported threat by the Arewa Youth Assembly, in response to the suspension of RUGA settlement by the Federal Government.

The umbrella body of northern youths was reported to have allegedly threatened to evict all southerners in the north within 30 days if the federal government doesn’t rescind its decision to suspend the RUGA settlements of Fulani herders in selected states of the federation.

The FG had announced the RUGA – Rural Grazing Area- initiative in a bid to curb the incessant clashes between Fulani herders and host communities. The idea was to establish a grazing settlement for the herders in selected locations in the states to avoid indiscriminate pastoral activities.

But the government was forced to suspend the decision after it was greeted by a widespread criticism.

Angered by the news of its suspension, the Arewa youths then purportedly issued a 30-day Ultimatum to every southerner residing in the north to vacate unless RUGA is implemented.

Reacting to purported threat, Chief Fani-Kayode warned the group the south was ready for them and even charged them to save the 30 days grace it had given and carry out their threat now.

According to him, a 30-day period was too long; “the sooner the dance begins the better, while warning the group they will “reap the whirlwind that you have sown”

“To the arewa youths who dared to say that every southerner must leave the north within 30 days unless. “RUGA” is implemented i say, stop the threats and just do it! the sooner this dance begins the better! 30 days is too long! you will reap the whirlwind that you have sown!

we are waiting for you!this time around we are ready.there will be no settlement and there will be no turning back!

Next week too far.

How about tomorrow sef...
They keep talking as if there's monopoly to violence.

Every tribe has a fair share of violence in them. The only difference is that some tribes only showcase it when dared.

Let them bring it on ASAP

Hope you aren't relying on your people cos, most of them think like almajiri and some have started welcoming the idea of ruga just like the ooni.

The fact that I support Uncle FFK shows me what Buhari has turned this country into.

Plz, can they make this ultimatum 24 hrs from now?
Tired of Nigeria already.

If they carry on with this threat, which i seriously hope they do, Nigeria will divide for the better.

North Nigeria Vs South Nigeria.

Maybe then North Nigeria will start developing Nuclear weapons while South Nigeria becomes South Korea

A group of people keeping threatening a whole nation and then federal government ignores them. This shows you who buhari is.

Now like FFK said,30 days is damn too much. We need your action as soon as possible. It is appointed for a man to die once and its Bette to die fighting for freedom.

Common let them help us divide Nigeria.

Don't mind her. She's OYO. She's minority here. The South must unite and stand together against this menace.
Remember some countries that fought on the side the Axis (Germany & co) in WW1 turned around and fought against Germany in WW2. Alliances are built on the bases of current mutual interests. It is to the advantage of the whole south of we unite against this tyranny. Leaders like Fanny, Kanu & Sowore as well as cultural groups like Ohaneze and Afenifere are needed now because the have no fear in them. Many of us online are just noise makers. When kasala go bust now, many won't go near the front lines.

Where are the old Aba and Onitsha Bakassi boys when you need them??

FFK you are on point,but your people are to be blamed for the empowerment of these folks

..30days is too far,they should make it one week.

Bunch of land-grabbing savages...,I dont blame them,it is the myopic clowns with oblong skulls in the South who enabled buhari their Grand-patron i blame squarely

I

Meanwhile FFK is in Abuja. Who's fighting the battle he's stoking from afar?
