Refrain from this way of thinking,the entire south should stand as one against the Common enemy.

When you point one finger at and accuse others of empty threats and imaginary enemies,four fingers are pointing back at you.

I'm Edo,we Niger Deltans,the Igbos and you yorubas are at the receiving end of this northern internal colonisation and oppression.

Let's come together and liberate ourselves please
Liberate ourselves here on Nairaland. grin

Noted!
United south is all we all want
but it's difficult to look the other way when a person from another tribe insults your people.

Example of what I'm saying is your user's name AFONJACONEHEAD, it says opposite of what you claim to stand for.

Yes and the bolded is same reason I came up with it.. like I said,I'm Edo,buh I just couldn't take it seeing you yorubas attacking us SS and the SE and joining sides with the common enemy that have held us to ransom and internal colonisation for decades.
You people made jest of us when that clueless man at aso rock called us 5%..and he knows full wl that without us,they are nothing.
Without the Niger Delta,the north is nothing.

Buh the ramblings between us in the south will do us no further good and the earlier we put our differences aside and join forces together,the better. But with the likes of your tin god, tinubu,whoss a grand sell out and in total control of the sw,I think we got a long way.

Open letter to the Sultan of Sokoto, Abubakar Said and the Fulani leaders

August 08, 2019

The Sultan of Sokoto and Fulani Leader
His Eminence Alhaji Abubakar Sa’ad

THE STATE OF THE NATION
We write this letter to you considering your importance as the head of the Fulani people in Nigeria. You are also the head of Fulani Muslims in Nigeria.It is our hope that you will be able to share the thoughts expressed here with the 7 million Fulani people in Nigeria through your traditional means of communication.

We write to honour you with this letter, given the floundering opportunities for a dialogue on the future of Nigeria, which has eluded the various ethnic groups in Nigeria and which may not enhance itself too soon.

Given the drumbeats of armed violence and extremism perpetrated largely by your people, and the fleeting prospects of a national dialogue, we hope this letter will not be the last opportunity to constructively engage you and the Fulani nation.

We, on behalf of Apapo Oodua Koya, (AOKOYA), a coalition of several Itsekiri, Edo and Yoruba groups write with our deepest feelings about the Nigerian state and what appears to be the pitfalls that lay ahead, most of which are oiled and orchestrated by your own people, the Fulani, albeit consciously.

THE PAST

There was no history of Fulani in today’s territory until 1804. This was 800 years after the Yoruba Kingdoms had been established, about 600 years after the Hausa, Ijaw, Tiv, Igala, Junkun Kingdoms had flourished. The Igbo Nation had existed for centuries before your people wandered into this hemisphere.
We recall that your forebears came to power through brutal and bloody conquest of indigenous peoples in many parts of Northern Nigeria under the guise of Islam even though Islam had taken firm roots in Yorubaland, Kano and Bornu Empires as early as the 11th century.

Since your sojourn in Nigeria, you have been very lucky.

A whole country of over 300 ethnic groups, was handed over to you a foreigner, first through conquest of some of its part, you, who never owned an inch of land centuries earlier in this hemisphere.

You have reaped the fruits which trees you did not plant and you knew not when they were planted.

Moreso, you were from a family of wanderers and your emergence as Emir and traditional ruler was unusual, having no royal blood in your veins ab initio.

No doubt, You succeeded in taking over the land, the main means of production of these innocent peoples whose main offence was that they were too caring, too gentle, too subservient and accommodating of foreigners in their ancestral homeland, Today, you sit on a throne soaked with the blood of millions of innocent souls anguished with deafening ears to the agony of the spirit of millions of victims of the horrendous killings by your men, who came from Fouta Jallon in Senegal, only some 210 years ago.

The British left in 1960 and you emerged as the main benefactor eventhough your people were not known to have fought for independence.

You were wise enough to plant your people in the security institutions, a reflection of your preference for force and brigandage instead of a knowledge-driven society.

Through direct military intervention or subterfuge, sly plots, you have been ruling Nigeria, or determining who rule Nigeria since 1960. This is a rare luck that only courageous people can manage for some time, but needs wise, intelligent, decent and conscientious people to manage for a millennium.

Under the false, artificial creation called Nigeria, your people produce no oil, yet you appropriate and decide how the resources should be expended.

You have no access to the Ocean, yet you decide which goods should be imported and which vessel should ply routes that indigenous owners of this God given oceans had been using for centuries.

All the military weapons were bought not by your money, but you decide who should use them and who should be killed by the same weapons. You have no rich scholarly tradition, yet your people sit on the Nigerian Universities Commission, (NUC) and decide the faith of other Nigerians.

You located all the military institutions in your land, more out of fear than out of love for justice and fairplay.

90 percent of Nigerian resources are sourced from the South and Middle Belt, yet you decide how the funds should be spent. Did you think this irresponsible way of life will continue for ever? Did your people think we are foolish and even if we are, did you think coming generations will accept this brazen exploitation? We have called for dialogue on these issues, but you call it treason.

The truth is that you have grossly mismanaged this opportunity. Your ruinous and destructive tradition has robbed on all Nigerians. Your intuition for aggression has become a national culture. Your disdain for debate and logical criticisms has been imbibed by Nigerians who continue to gravitate towards the custodians of political power, whose way of life must be imbibed for recognition.

You have ruined and destroyed this whole nation at your beckon due to your exclusive, narrow, primordial and savage instincts driven only by your self interest and your brutal and non-negotiable desire to conquer and subdue every nationality in Nigeria. This is a tall task which you are hell bent in executing.

THE INVASION OF YORUBALAND BY FULANI HERDSMEN

We like to caution you on your latest antics to renew your grand 1804 design to conquer the entire country, not through ideas but through the most savage tradition of killings and maiming.

This to us is at the bottom of the current Fulani kidnapping in Yorubaland. We wish to inform you that we are aware of your grand plan to renew a project done half way and put on mute mode since the defeat of your forces in 1840 by the Yoruba Army.

We are worried that you and your Fulani people have been suspiciously silent on the kidnapping of Yoruba people, the killing of our young professionals including the killing of the daughter of a prominent Yoruba leader.

We were not surprised that you and the other Fulani leaders did not consider it necessary to send condolence messages or even visit the family of the slain woman. This can only mean your tacit approval or at least, a philosophy of cold compromise.

Please be aware that in the past two years, records show that 689 Yoruba people have been kidnapped by your people, Fulani, about 400 reported cases of rape, including rape of toddlers. Out of this number of the kidnapped, 356 were women, and out of that number, 250 were married women.

In all, 112 people were killed by your Fulani people either for resisting kidnap or for failing to pay ransom. This may mean nothing to you, but to us, it means a lot.

We urge you to imagine a group of armed Yoruba cocoa farmers storming forests in Kano, Katsina and Sokoto, kidnapping Fulani people, raping their young girls and even killing the daughter of an Emir or a prominent Fulani leader? Can you also imagine the same heavily armed Yoruba cocoa farmers occupying your forests, stopping your people from farming and preventing your people from plying the highways in their ancestral homes?

To make the matter worse, imagine the armed Yoruba cocoa farmers carry out these terrible crimes under the banner of a Yoruba man as the Nigerian President. How will you feel?
As it is, your people, the Fulani are digging their hands down our throats. They are entering our bedrooms and sleeping with our mothers and wives. These actions are not only against Islam, they are against humanity.

These latest actions plus our experiences in the past have combined to renew the energy of millions of Yoruba people who want a country of their own. Either you like it or not, this will happen. God, before whom you and your big crown are like but a filthy rag, will make it happen.

We urge you to prepare your self to dialogue or if you chose the path of violence, there will be proportional response. Having Yoruba or Igbo Republics is something you do not wish to hear, but which is imminent and inevitable.

Please be aware that the Yoruba do not begrudge your values and the ways of your living, all we are saying is that we want to live our lives, design our political and cultural architecture, live and die on our own terms.

The forthcoming Yoruba Republic will be glad to accommodate righteous Fulani people who respect our civilisations and the laws of our fatherland.

We wish to use this opportunity to advice you and your people to be aware that you have no power to conquer Yoruba Nation. Your forebears tried and failed. Your military and political surrogates tried, marked with killings, maiming and destruction of our economy, yet they failed.

We ask you to instruct your people, the armed Fulani herdsmen to withdraw from Yoruba territories and on their own, mop up the cache of arms and ammunition stored in Yoruba territories.

Sir, the Yoruba people stand for peace and not war. We would prefer these issues to be resolved amicably without firing any gun shot. But, we wish to say that if your heart remains rebellious and your soul defiant, the Yoruba people are not afraid to confront you once again the way we did some 175 years ago, this time in the most ferocious manner you can ever imagine. It is necessary to let you know this even though we are aware that you will not change the conquest desires of your heart.

We wish you a happy Salah and Allah’s wisdom to know and do what is right.
Yours Sincerely,
Col Abimbola Sowumi (rtd)
Mallam Salau Ahmed Akorede
For Apapo Oodua Koya, (AOKOYA)
The Yoruba self determination group

Excellent letter.
How did I miss it
It should be made available to every school child in Nigeria, because it contains so much history ordinary folks have since forgotten.

I've cancelled out your hypocrisy.
All through the period fulani menace were ravaging middlebelt, did your Yoruba speak against the evil? Rather they were enjoying the show. Fulanis always have an accomplice in yoruba silence.

You have a point. To be sincere, the seeming silence from SW was very annoying, however, we must look beyond that a forge a common front against the invaders.
For the purpose of record and avoidance of doubt,I repeat, it is this lack of common strategy against them that has been giving them strength to bash all of us the way the wish. Imagine if the entire middlebelt , unite with the Southern Nigeria to confront them? Do you think them can subdue us despite Thier imported fighters from Libya? Is it not time to put away our differences to confront them?

The longer we delay, the more they will continue to suppress us. Look at the appointments and heads of MDAs you will know they are very serious about subjugation.

Jonathan that lost election has visited SW several times and attended occasions organised by yorubas.His people also have never accused Yorubas of any wrong doing as per 2015 elction. Weytin com be you people's problems that are not even from his tribe? Oh I know the answer. You are the biggest beneficiaries of his regime that performed below average. You may not believe this but from what I've experinced over the years, the Yorubas have more allies than Ibos in the SS region.
Lol

You really need to wake up.

If you think you are really loved in this country, try to instigate a crisis in the North and see between Igbos and Yorubas who would be the greatest casualty.

Everybody sees you guys as untrustworthy and it is a tag that will stick forever.

Jonathan performed below average but Buhari is performing above average abi? We would reply you people when your tijanniya leader thiefubu picks the APC ticket

This is very deep !
I thought Yorubas and Fulanis have a very smooth relationship ?
Why are fulanis killing them?
Why begging the caliphate again ?
What's happening ?


Only a clown will feed a snake and expect to be protected by the snake he fed.. It will definitely consume you one day.

Just watch how they will invade this thread. .... Fulanis have dealt with them but they don't know how to attack their slave masters that have sent hundreds of his kinsmen to their early graves...

He will now adopt transfer of aggression in order to keep moving.. cheesy


Your sense of reasoning has been beclouded by bigotry.
