Catholic Bishops of Ibadan Ecclesiastical Province, yesterday, faulted the alleged selective administration of justice by the President Muhammadu Buhari-led
government, saying this development has affected the country’s image in the international community.

The bishops, from Ibadan Archdiocese, Ilorin, Ondo, Oyo, Ekiti and Osogbo Dioceses, in a communiqué after their meeting at the Domus Pacis Pastoral
Institute, Igoba in Akure, noted that the current waves of insecurity in the country are an indication that the Federal Government has failed to address the criminal elements wreaking havoc in the country.

The communiqué was signed by the province Chairman and Secretary, Rev. Gabriel Abegunrin and Rev. Akin Oyejola, respectively.

The bishops lamented that the country, under the present administration, has lost its soul and that the insecurity pervading the land, dwindling economy and others are all indices of a failed country, needing an urgent revival.

They also tackled the Presidency for attacking the Catholic Bishop of Sokoto Diocese, Matthew Kukah, for his revelations to the United States Congress on the state of things in the country, insisting that Kukah made patriotic and commendable points with verifiable data on the unlawful persecution of Nigerians.

The communiqué reads: “Nigeria, our country, seems to have lost its very soul because it is no longer a healthy entity.

The good health of any nation consists
in its capacity to offer its citizens a territory where they can feel at home, feel secure and enjoy the necessities of life.

“This, unfortunately, is no longer the case in our dear country, Nigeria, where, armed conflicts, armed robbery, kidnapping for ransom, insurgency, banditry and extrajudicial killing persist as the order of the day.

When a nation loses its soul, its people lose the cohesive elements of human relationships. A nation that has lost its soul is characterised by inept, uncaring leadership which functions by selective
allocation of posts, privileges and resources and by selective application of justice. It is characterised by leaders who, rather than care for the citizens of the country, simply exploit and denigrate them.”

On the presidency’s response to Bishop Kukah, the bishops said: “Bishop Kukah, in his patriotic and frank presentation called attention to some verifiable data and statistics about the Nigerian situation on that privileged international platform. He spoke for authentic Christians and Muslims who are under persecution. No doubt, he intended to solicit the support of that forum which many Nigerians believe holds the promise of some assistance and relief from our current national crises.

“The Federal Government, however, has characteristically gone up in arms against the person of Bishop Kukah and his purpose. It is commonly said that when there is a problem in a democracy, more democracy is needed to solve it. Sadly enough, our current federal government does not seem to subscribe to this.”

“For the sake of our democracy, that right, exercised with responsibility, must be protected. We support Bishop Kukah in his effort to unveil the truth about the Nigerian situation to ameliorate things. We call on
the Federal Government to learn not to see criticism as an attack or a crime.”

Buhari government is so so allergic to the truth!

I'd advice that this Catholic Bishop/Priests should use their platform to form a political party instead.

One thing is certain.."Buhari's time will still pass away"

ObadiahMal:

Let me make some revelations because some of us also have our own intelligence networks. I have met with some of the bandits, we have met with some of their high commanders. One or two who have repented. They have sat down with us, not once, not twice.

They told us that one of the northern governors is the commander of Boko Haram in Nigeria. Boko Haram and the Bandits are one and the same thing. They have a sophisticated network. during this lockdown their Planes were moving up and down as though there was no lock down. Moving ammunition, money, logistics and distributing them in different part of the country. They are already in the south. In the rain forest of the south. They are everywhere. They told us that when they finish this rural killings, they will move to phase 2.

In the Phase 2, they will go into the urban cities, going from house to house killing prominent people. I can tell you, this is the game plan. By 2022, they want to start a civil war in Nigeria. Don't joke with what I am saying you. I have a PHD from Oxford university. I am a central banker, we don't talk nonsense. So don't joke with what I am telling you. --- Obadiah Mailafia

We know their game plan

wonder shall never cease to end

let us all continue to pray for peace and progress to reign in Nigeriam so that we all may be able to sleep with our 2 eyes close

There are various reasons why Ghana is amongst the top 10 most peaceful countries in Africa.

1 - Ghana is 50% Akan, descendants of ancient farming societies who generally were a peaceful bunch.

2 - Although the Akan are the majority, they do not abuse the other minority tribes.

3 - Ghana is predominately a Christian country. In comparison to the Muslim countries that surround them, Ghana has managed to contain Islamic militants and nomadic groups that often try and disrupt the peace in West Africa.

4 - The Ghanaian government doesn't sponsor terrorism. On the other hand, the government of some other African countries have their hands deep in terrorism. For example, the Nigerian government (primarily run by Fulani Muslims) is tribalistic and actively engages in state-sponsored terrorism to kill various other ethnic groups (who are primarily farmers). Farmers are not safe in Nigeria. The government is importing various Fulani nomads from across Africa to take the land of our farmers. This has triggered food shortages and an insane amount of violence.

5 - The Muslim groups in Ghana are not as brainless as the ones in Nigeria. The Hausa people in Nigeria have for far too long, protected and sympathized with the Fulani nomadic groups (known for being terrorists who invaded West Africa from the north) because the Fulanis were also Muslim.

The Hausa in Ghana are not as weak. They don’t tolerate the Fulani groups as easily as those in Nigeria. Generally speaking, Ghanaians don’t tolerate violence and they certainly wont tolerate the violence carried out by nomadic groups that have destroyed Nigeria (and are trying to destroy the entire West African sub-region). Nigeria, Mali, Central African Republic and parts of Cameroon are currently being destroyed by these nomadic groups.

6 - Ghanaians are very observant of their country’s happenings. When crimes are committed, they talk about it all over social media and rant. Unlike Nigerians, they don’t turn a blind eye to crimes. Nigerians are more selfish. They only care when crimes directly affect them. They are also more tribalistic and don’t care when crimes are committed against other tribes.

7 - Ghanaian military is less corrupt than other West African countries. A few years ago, a group of cattle nomads from outside Ghana tried to annihilate villagers in their farms. The Ghanaian army was swift to catch those criminals and killed them and their cows.


Innocent cows are getting killed because the only language their nomadic owners understand is brutality. It’s 2021 and they don’t want to set up ranches like most civilised nations. They want to roam around, destroy our farming lands, kill innocent people, and be pests to others.

Also, because many of these cattle nomads are black Muslims who are mixed with Berbers. They feel they are above black people and refuse to obey laws in lands ruled by black people.

They never ever try and invade lands in North Africa (where their Arab/Berber masters live). Their terrorist acts are always against the blacks.

Since the Ghanaian military took action against them, they haven’t tried their nonsense in Ghana. But we know cattle nomads love revenge. We know they are secretly plotting revenge. Revenge killings are part of their DNA.

That’s why West Africans must keep both eyes open for these enemies of our blessed fertile lands who are secretly plotting to destroy our peace.

Buhari has earpiece fixed so tight to his house ears. He does not hear anything any more. What a country rule by unfortunate people.

The worst government so far
