Elder statesman and former Chief of Army Staff, Gen Theophilus Danjuma (rtd), has come under fire over his recent comment on the state of the nation.
Gen. Danjuma, who was a former Defense Minister, had claimed while speaking at the University of Ibadan in Oyo State, on Thursday, that Nigerians won't sleep if he reveals what is happening in Nigeria.
He said: “In Yorubaland, everybody seems to have lost their voice, scared. And people appear not to care about what is happening. If I tell you what I know is happening in Nigeria today, you will no longer sleep.
“If you want details, I will give it to you privately,” the elder statesman had averred.
Reacting, however, the Middle belt Conscience Guard, an umbrella body of the states in the middle belt region in Nigeria, described the comment by Gen. Danjuma as diversionary and tactless.
The group declared that the statement credited to Gen. Danjuma was not a reflection of the mindset of the people of the middle belt region in Nigeria in its entirety.
Prince Raymond Enero, National President of the group in a statement signed on Thursday, stated that the statement by “Theophilus Danjuma is unpatriotic and highly misleading, and if care is not taken might lead to unrest in the country.”
The group warned the ex-military general to desist from making crude statements that could cause unrest in the nation.
The statement below.
The Middle belt Conscience Guard wishes to state that the statement credited to Theophilus Danjuma is not a reflection of the mindset of the people of the middle belt region in Nigeria in its entirety.
The statement can be best described as diversionary, tactless, and of poor taste, meant to unnecessarily heat the polity for no morally justifiable reason.
The statement can be best described as diversionary, tactless, and of poor taste, meant to unnecessarily heat the polity for no morally justifiable reason.
The Middle belt Conscience Guard views with concern the way and manner a supposed elder statesman who has benefitted immensely from Nigeria could throw caution into the winds by making statements that are not meant for unifying purposes, but for disintegration and to create chaos in the country.

We are constrained to ask Theophilus Danjuma what he stands to benefit by making such inglorious call in this critical point of our existence as a people and as a country. If this is not malicious, we do not know what to call it.

The Middle belt Conscience Guard wishes to state that there are certain conducts expected from elder statesmen in the country, and Theophilus Danjuma has fallen short of this expectation. As such, he should retrace his steps and tender unreserved apologies to the country for acting against common sense.

The Middle belt Conscience Guard also wishes to use this medium to inform Theophilus Danjuma that there are boundaries he should not cross in his futile attempt as portraying himself as a saint amongst sinners, while in the real sense of it; he is part and parcel of the anomaly that has been entrenched in the system from time immemorial. This attempt is nothing short of calling a dog a bad name to hang it.

It is expected that his likes should at this age and time sober reflect on how they have conspired to bring Nigeria to its knees the while they held sway at the helm of affairs in the country with their actions and inactions that were self-serving and inglorious.

The Middle belt Conscience Guard believes that Theophilus Danjuma is flying a kite aimed at promoting the interest of their allies that were rejected by the electorate in the recently concluded general elections in the country.

This is indeed a testament to the fact that the hawks that held Nigeria hostage had been rejected, and as such, the country must be made ungovernable in their bid to bring Nigeria to its knees as they intended.
The Middle belt Conscience Guard wishes to inform the generality of Nigerians to hold Theophilus Danjuma and his cohorts responsible should there be an attempt at truncating Nigeria’s nascent democracy in the days ahead as it evident that there is a grand plot by some disgruntled elements that are not happy with the progress been made in critical areas of the economy in Nigeria.

It is instructive to state that the generality of Nigerians can decipher between light and darkness. As such, any attempt to heat the polity unnecessarily through callous statements would be resisted in its entirety.

The Middle belt Conscience Guard wishes to admonish Theophilus Danjuma to retrace his steps and seek for forgiveness from the Nigerian people for his failure to put Nigeria on the road to progress and prosperity while he held strategic positions of authority including as Chief of Army Staff, and as Minister of Defense under President Olusegun Obasanjo.

The Middle belt Conscience Guard wishes to state in unequivocal terms that should Nigeria experience any form of unrest; the blame should be put at the doors steps of Theophilus Danjuma. Nigeria is indeed on the path of greatness, and as such, any form of a deliberate plot to truncate our progress should be resisted.

Why not hear him out first before condemning him especially since we all know Elder Danjuma doesn't talk anyhow and for many years has been pro-Fulani.

Help me ask them o

T.y danjuma is above 70, but has a mental age of 5. .

Danjuma a for er

You people should allow Danjuma to say that thing that will make Nigeria burn... after all he won't be the first person to make such promise without fulfilling it. A certain hunch back promised same in no distant past.

One of the problems of this country is these mushroom groups that are readily available to Support or Attack people.

They are part of the reason the right thing is hardly done in this country.

They are only a voice for the highest bidder

Under fire from Zombies? We Sensible Nigerians are calling on TY Danjuma to reveal that which he claims he knows so NIGERIANS will not sleep

You don't need any affirmation from Danjuma to experience your expected doom individually or collectively or rather tribally, its a reality for you already.

Gerrout of here , I am a very very blessed man , my cup is filled to the brim and runneth over with the grace of God !¡!!!!! Be guided

Danjuma is a motherfucker.

A man that killed his boss that he was supposed to protect.

A man who supported Buhari in 2015.

A man who owns an oil well nd yet has no NGO through which he can help d poor.

A man who has remain silent about d Jukun nd Tiv crises.


A man who shameless tag all Yorubas voiceless about Buhari govt without considering d likes of Sowore, Fani Kayode, Falana, FalZ, Afenifere that has constantly spoke against this govt

Forced unity
Forced Nationalism
Forced patriotism.

What more can you as from a useless entity.
When you speak up,they call it treason.
When you aspire to a high office,they call you a second class or 5%. And tell you why you will never be president.
When you decide that you want to leave in peace,the declare war on you.
You want freedom to become whatever and believe what ever. But they insist that you MUST be a Muslim in a subliminal manner.

You cannot beat a child and expect him not to cry. We might be oppressed,down but not out. But when that day of resistance would erupt, no one will be safe.
As the world rotates,so is it that nothing would last forever.
You cannot oppress a Nation forever.

Take the message leave the messenger

lol danjuma is free to talk... we know how he headed several ibo massacre and murdered Aguyi Ironsi in cold blood... the north rewarded him with wealth and oil bloc which Buhari is about to take

Buhari has decided to take out his 1984 enemies slowly and painfully and it is giving them panic... that was what gave IBB sudden stroke, thats why Danjuma is restless and thats why dasuki is still in prison



..

Ty danjuma has enjoyed everything this country has in stocks including oil wells giving him billions just as that mumu family In the north. I think the dss needs to pay him a visit soon

That is why I love my people,we don't do politics with emotions. We the middle belt rejected this useless old fool. We are advising him to crossover to the region that is full with bitterness,hatred,evil,armed robbery,propaganda and lies,criminalities of all kinds maybe they will clap for him.
TY discovered that his corrupt practice will soon be exposed and the source of his corrupt wealth is gradually coming to a close that is why he begin to shiever.
The useless old fool is the reason why Nigeria is like this. Now that he see someone trying to change the country he begin to cry. Go to his home state (taraba) you cry for them.
