I watched obaseki interview and he was telling his supporters that out of the whole of SE/SS, he is the only APC government.


Seems the man wants to join his people over in pdp...Edo state you welcome to PDP.

So that finally SE/SS will be locked down for pdp....

But you know Edo state are Yoruba, so I think they will prefer to remain in APC with their brothers in SW.........is still okay...... blood is thicker than water.

Why did you rented an apartment or bought a land and builded on it? You can as well go to abuja dont rent or acquire an apartment be roaming about because your are free to move anywhere or stay any where cos u are a nigerian. You guys should reason sometimes. You came to my community and you want a space for free?arrant nonsense, Ruga can never and will never work in Edo state, take your cows to the north, we have even stop eating them, rubbish
GoodGovernance:
Second term political statement.

What is wrong with having Rural Grazing Area in EDO,to cater for many herdsmen that cannot afford individual cattle ranch?

We want peace, yet we do not want to make sacrifice and concessions .So the senseless clashes and killings should continue.

RUGA or no RUGA,Nigerian herdsmen have the right to leave and move to any part of Nigeria.

So why all these rubbish antagonisms?

The bitter truth is Land ,any where in the world, is a source of conflicts,war and deaths.

Imagine,

what are you talking sef sire.?

Edo state na Yoruba state oooo. Even the other day the letter written by alaafin to buhari , he named Edo state as Yoruba territory.

Please make your research well.....Edo na Yoruba get am.



See the letter of Alaafin to Buhari


"Titled, ‘Yoruba Question in Nigeria Conundrum,’ Alaafin wrote, “I have never been timid or failed in my total support for the success of your administration. My confidence had always been based on Your Excellency’s ability, fitness and competence in leading the country to the Promised Land, where law and order will prevail, individual liberty is guaranteed and economic wellbeing of the citizens is assured.
“In recent time, however, I am worried about the security situation in the country, especially in the South-West geo-political zone, nay the entire Yoruba-speaking area of the country, including Kwara, Kogi and Edo states."





please argue with facts.


Gbam ...that is why the Igbo has never be it in 1967 or now would never have them in Biafra

No, be a herder legitimately, buy a land and do your business within, not roaming about destroying the business of others
GoodGovernance:




if farming is not restricted to the north,why should herding be restricted to the north?


Sentiments will continue to kill us in this country undecided



So herding is only meant for the north abi?



A south based northerner should go back to the north because he has chosen to be a herder in the south,abi?

Very illogical reasoning.

We are talking of farming here and the urgent need to stop senseless deaths,not housing.

States governments have been supporting farmers through provision of farm settlements.So why not for herders?

Not every herder is rich enough to afford individual ranch .RUGA is just like a farm settlement or group ranch,nothing more.


Your outburst is just an epitome of top level ignorance and ethnic hatred,nothing more.Who told you RUGA would be free for the herders?But the fact is that,it will be cheaper than having an individual ranch.

A lot of IGR awaits any sensible state government that can grab the opportunity.

For your information I am not a northerner but a sensible and non ethnocentric Nigerian.

YahwehRocks:



Edos aren't yorubas.
Yorubas hail from Edo state.

For instance, Eko( Lagos state) was named by the Binis. Eko has no known yoruba meaning but has an Edo meaning which is camp area which edos used as a resting area during trade with other now West African countries.

Same with Idumota (no Yoruba meaning) in lagos a corrupted Edo name of Idumwun ota meaning Ota village/ community.

Ancient Bini Empire stretched westward farther than Ghana.
President Nkrumah of Ghana usually dressed like an Edo man.

I tire

Since morning edo guys have descended on me like bees attacking my statement.

But I just made it on light submission and similarities between both sha.

It doesn't matter whether he is looking for sympathy or not. He has spoken the mind of the people. The insincere one here is the fg and it's agenda.
maasoap:


That's not enough, he should tell us how FG is trying to force Edo state into Ruga. To me, the man is just looking for sympathy. And what a way to get it other than hiding under a burning national issue. Nigeria politicians and insincerity are like 5 and 6, I'm not falling for this shiit.

Bendel state as it was back in the days was an old western region of Nigeria which is coined from the word Benin-Delta and later birthed Edo state and Delta state.

Geographically, the Alaafin is emphatically right but culturally they are diverse thereby sharing cultural traits from the Yoruba race, Igbo and Kogi state. History has it that Lagos state used to be a province of the Benin kingdom meaning that the warriors of the Benin kingdom were placed as guards in Lagos to guard their territory.

Is rUGA only meant for the South?

As a matter of fact,it is not compulsory for any state,interested states were only asked to signify. Obaseki is only making second term political statements.

And so far 11 northern states have embraced the idea.Is any state being forced?

Why have you guys allowed sentiments to overshadow your sense of reasoning?

not sentiments but just the reactions of the south over the unusual attitude of the ruling government over the killings, why are they paying the killers instead of arresting and prosecuting them- is this act not suspicious?

btw, if its not been forced why are they suspending it even after 11 northern states have agreed to it. they should just continue with the 11 states and enjoy the economic benefits alone - we dont want it because it will later breed conflict given benue,plateau,kaduna and taraba experiences
sanctity of life should supercede any economic benefits

WHY MUST AN UNEDUCATED FULANI HERDSMEN COME TO EDO STATE TO TAKE THIS LUCRATIVE BUSINESS FROM THEM.

They not only take the business but they threatened the peasant farmers with death and even destroy their crops.

President Buhari till date has not seen the need to prosecute these killer herdsmen.

My bro I understand ur line of thinking....since I was born there have been cattle markets all over the south...hausas and fulanis sell their cattle there. They truck it down to the market.. no problem but herders start becoming mischievious by killing locals and destroying their farms. what should be the reactions from govt: to fish them out and deal with them. But no instead they buhari said we should cohabit with them... We have been co habiting with the peaceful ones for decades without anyone telling us to do so..when the Killings became more serious...the govt said they are not Nigerians but malians and libyans... Why can't u protect ur people from external aggressors?? .. then from the moon u devised a plan to settle the foreigners that have been killing ur people... My brother think am now e dey somehow...the govt was not sincere from the onset hence such reactions from the locals. U don't blame them for it.. GRACIAS
