embarassed
Buhari wept like a baby on a national TV when he lost the 2011 general election. One would think he cried because he had good intentions for the country not knowing that his intentions were to implement Sharia all over & to destroy Nigeria.
Those who packaged this monumental failure for this office should bow their heads in shame.
I mean ALL OF THEM!!!

Not Again!!

Just like I was against those who were killed extrajudiciously for waving flags or protesting to have their own country, I also condemn the endless killing of security operatives. I mean these men are peoples husbands, brothers, uncles and fathers. These barbaric and inhumane acts must stop please.

The SS state governors should be at alert and don't allow those miscreants called UGM to infiltrate their region.

It is only an enemy of progress that would take his fight into another region who are not interested in their madness..

I trust Gov Udom , he would be proactive about this cos Akwa Ibom people have been enjoying some peace for a while now

Can't all the governors gather together and call for Buhari's resignation or force their state senators to start impeachment processes against him?
Oh,I forgot.These are lilly livered governors,equally as corrupt as the aboki,out for their financial and power gain only.
Anyhow people want to see it,strategize or gather to discuss a solution to the crises Nigeria finds itself in,the only constant truth remains:Buhari leaving that office is the only way a solution or start of the solution we face will start manifesting.
The question is:would Nigeria survive his staying to complete his tenure in 2023 with this level of misrule?

It is dangerous having a fulani man as our President. Under fulani rule, Nigeria has become a banana republic. Somalia has more international credibility than Nigeria at the moment.

All this yeye fake love for SE and SS started when? Or you think SS people are happy that their resources are being usurped and vandalized by others? You think those UGM operating in their states are non indigenes?

I perceive that these unknown gun men are gathering weapons little by little.. Once they get to a point, then something more deadlier may set in.

Fulani Bandits have infiltrated the South of Nigeria.

Their modus operandi is guerrilla attacks on security forces and then follow it up with a deadly assault on hapless and armless civilians.

They’re operating like the HIV virus.


President Buhari of course knows these and the only thing he can do is to keep supporting and sponsoring this Fulani Armed Bandits as one of their major patrons.

Are you saying that South Easterners are the Unknown Gun Men in Akwa Ibom?

Something must be terribly wrong with you if that is what you’re driving at.
