*THERE SHALL BE NO WAR IF ...*

*By*

*Moses Oludele Idowu*

Some people think Nigeria is headed for war! I read an article this morning about *_The Civil War This Time..._*
But hear me and hear me well: *THERE SHALL BE NO WAR EXCEPT THE SOUTHERNERS, ESPECIALLY THE YORUBAS FAILED TO DO THE NEEDFUL.*

I have not seen a war. I do not see a war. And there shall be no war if the people of the South especially the Yorubas will do what is needful and what is required of them.
This is the path of plain logic and where it leads me.
I will explain because the real article is still coming.
Now ask yourself this question: Why do people engage in war?

1. Because one party feels he is in a position to win or strong enough to win.
2. Because of irreconcilable differences...
3. To address injustice and oppression etc.

Now the number one reason is the most important. No matter the injustice you don't attack an enemy when there is no chance of winning. There is just no way.
Thus the most potent reason for war is WEAKNESS.
WEAKNESS invites aggression and war. Have you noticed that the student who is quiet and easy going is also the one everyone wants to fight - even the girls.
Thus the worst and the number one cause of war is to be Weak, indecisive, confused, incoherent etc.

Why did Hitler attack France, Britain and Russia? Because they feared war and made concession with Hitler making themselves weak in the process while Hitler became strong. That history belongs to another day.
Why did Hitler spare Switzerland? Because it is a strong and well fortified nation.

Why did Jordan join Egypt and Syria to attack Israel in 1967 but refused to join them in 1973?
Because having lost West Bank and Jerusalem the only thing left to lose is the capital and probably King Hussein's crown!

Why has the Syrians and Egypt not tried that gamble again to attack Israel since 1973 instead Egypt has made peace with Israel?
Because having lost tragically the last time it is suicidal attempting such because Israel is a strong nation. In the 1973 war Israel soldiers wiped out entire Third Army of Egypt, crossed the SuezCanal and were on their way to take Cairo - they were 19 kilometres to Cairo when UN motivated by Russia issued a Cease-fire!
That is Dominion!

That is my Central thesis which I want all Southern people to grasp: Peace is not achieved by negotiation or pleadings or begging. Peace is achieved by making it difficult to wage war.
Peace is achieved y making it costly to wage war.

When a nation loses a whole division of an army and lost more land then you don't need to appeal to her not to fight again.

Thus the real temptation to the Fulanis is the weakness and disunity of the SOUTHERNERS especially the Yorubas.

To prevent war Be Strong! To avert war be very strong! That is all.

The fulani has a right to plan. They have a right to seek for a West African nation that will house all fulanis and Arabs in the world. It is within their right to seek and plan for their own progress. It is also within my own plan to safeguard my land against attack and make it so costly both in cash and kind, both in blood and property for anyone to ever think of attacking me
It is all about Strategy. It is about Tacboulah - the Hebrew word for strategy which General Sharon tells us he had always used and has never failed him.
So it is very easy really.

Has any nation ever attacked America? Only once in 1941 on a Sunday morning. But Japanese are still regretting that attack till today, and generations of Japanese will regret it. They wished they hadn't done it.

That is power. Make it so costly for anyone to even attempt to strike at you. Then peace is guaranteed!
America made Cuba miserable. They treated Castro like a dog not a ruler. They mounted blockade against the whole nation by land and sea and air and stopped them from engaging in trade or receiving help from other nations. *"You have sugarcane, so eat your sugarcane"..*
America! That is Dominion. Why did Cuba not fight or engage in war against America? Because the likelihood of success is zero.
And that is why there was no war!
Did you get the logic?

Today Yorubas are being kidnapped in their own local government and their women are being raped and vowing not to come to Nigeria again.
And what measure have Yorubas provided for this?
Nothing! Except big grammar, euphemism, garrulity, as if battles are won on the pages of newspapers!
No coherent, systematic and well-defined approach to address the issues and make the troublers pay dearly for their crimes. They are appealing to Federal Government and to police ...

Indeed, God taketh the crafty in their craftiness. So if insecurity continues it is not the fault of the herdsmen or fulani, it is the fault of the people who refused to defend themselves which the law provides for. If there is war it is because the fulani feel they can win because they perceive the others as weak because they made themselves look weak.
So I do not see a war but there could be war if the Yorubas continue in the attiude of passivity and indifference as they have been doing. Today Yorubas are divided. No coherent and Clarion voice to rally around. No ringing voice to listen to....
Everywhere it is echoes I here, the timid and frightful cockoo of a frightened chicken. No confidence. Lacking in assurance.
Today the Igbos are the ones on this issue and are ready. The Ijaws are the ones on it and have spoken, the Rivers have spoken in clear and unmistakable language for even the deaf to hear...!
What about the Yorubas?
They are organizing ... while their highways and forests are being enciricled and surrounded.

Joseph warned Pharaoh of a tragedy that is coming but it could be averted. Pharaoh listened and took advice and saved a nation from tragedy.
Again I warn Yorubas, wake up! Your weakness and disunity invite agression and is too tempting for war.
What then is to be done?
Simple: Let every community, every town and village set up its own militia of the natives of that town across religious lines. Made up of able- bodied persons according to the population. Their primary responsibility is their town and nothing else. That is allowed, a group of natives have a right to secure their town and their forests and farmlands. Those towns have been before Nigeria came to be and in a crisis the last to come is the first to be laid off.
Let each Yoruba community have this. Same for all including Northern states that are being terrorised. Robbers came to Offa and killed 50 persons in one day. People going to their work in their own town without rioting or fighting. But if Offa people have had their own local militia of even 400 all armed even with dane guns and matchetes, not a single one of those rascals would have escaped alive. You got the logic?

The people who are kidnapping are doing that because they are the only ones who have access to military grade weapons and other weapons, and no one is confronting them. Instead our own government is asking us, we the people, to surrender our guns and other weapons. Sometimes this government by it's policy statements astounds me. ☹
In the light of these, let each community begin without further delay.
We shall take it from there.

You make sense, but so far they're yet to attack any remote yoruba village like they've done in Benue, Plateau, Enugu and several north western states. There's a reason for that.. they're not sure of the consequences.

fear, trouble/unrest here and there.cultist, kidnappers, fake/substandard products, ritual killing Bokos, shiities, Amu Robas, Rapists fake Alfas/Pastors., Rogues/Rugas etc

If you observe well, the Yoruba's are the only group of the three major group not to have tried to dominate other groups.
In the build up to the 67 war, they were aggressed by Igbos marching towards Lagos. The Hausa/Fulani are well known and are the aggressors this time around.
This has made the Yorubas a target for both aggressive sides trying to dominate Nigeria.
It is a pity that some folks think the way to win war is by blackmailing the Yoruba's into doing their bidding. A big pity!

What have they (the Fulani) done? What has happened? Absolutely nothing.why did you want the yorubas to fight against them? No reason whatsoever.The Northerners should be the ones fighting against them not even the southerners.lt is extremely necessary to speak the truth HERE AND NOW, that the yorubas do not believe in biafra and do not believe in secession.And if any region secedes ,the country shall cease to exist.Stone deaf

More often than not chaos breeds stability.
