What's UK's business with Islam? That's how people use their own hands to invite trouble to themselves. They'll soon start experiencing the true nature of those terrorists they're aligning themselves with.

When I see some comments on Nairaland, I'd just smile. Kids talking about politics ignorantly. If u've been following politics since 1990.. You'd know Ibori is a mentor and a Leader. Politically, Ibori is more influential,I repeat more influential than Tinubu. I laugh when I see people saying Buhari should arrest Ibori when he returns to Nigeria. Smh.. Even Buhari knows that if he dares, The militants will so deal with the pipelines as usual. The resource control causing dispute today, was what Ibori agitated for back in 2007, hence the reason OBJ decided to witch hunt him...

Ibori might not contest in 2019, but trust me, his presence would influence the results

FACTS ABOUT THE YORUBAS AKA AFONJAS


( 1 ) . Their story of
kingship began with Edo
prince and the Benin
recorded History .
( 2 ) . Ayayi crawder said,
little were know about
yoruba existence,
meaning they were not
part of Nigeria of today
boarder or were in small
settlement close to
dahomy. yoruba are half
muslims and those with
African traditions copied or got them from Benin
civilization . I doubt if they not immigrants from dahomy
mix with Benins or other fulani- hausa from Niger
. Bishop Samuel Adjayi Crowther (c . 1809 – 31
December 1891 ) Was the first African Anglican bishop
in Nigeria . Born in Osogun (in today's Iseyin Local
Government, Oyo State , Nigeria ) . His grandson was
Herbert Macaulay
( 3 ) . Yoruba have dublicity of kingship with the process
highly politized to being traditional . A system they try
copy from Benin but can 't get it real like the Benin
Kingdom. Edo Obaship is one of the most revered
institutions in the world because of the way it has
sustained its awesome prestige with strict and
meticulous attention to ancient traditions of valour ,
discipline and integrity . Edo chieftaincy titles cannot be
bought or conferred on non- indigenes or frivolously .
Every Edo chief performs a peculiarly sacred duty
and responsibility to the people of Edo. It does not make
sense , therefore , to think that a people who would not
and have never conferred their chieftaincy titles on non-
indigenes, would voluntarily invite , accept, or surrender
to non- indigenes as their kings . Due to celestial
origins , the Edo monarch cannot eat out and cannot be
diverted from full time palace duties to hustle
for contracts .
( 4 ) . Most of today
yoruba religion are
Benin Origin , Olokun ,
Ogun , Iha oguega (ifa ) ,
oronmila, Esago
(shango ) , Ayelala etc .
Many Benin traditions
and spirituality are
stillfully documented by
yorubas in high places
as YORUBA ? (Never mind the Edo man ' s christian
mindset quickly dening Edo have niothing to do with
African traditional religion , agreeing they are foriegn to
Edoland . . . LIE ) .
Although the Great Edo ( Benin ) Kingdom were not major
participants in the trans- Atlantic slave trade , because
the Obas (Kings ) believed that their subjects were too
valuable to sell away , and their noblemen had need of
war captives on their own farms , the influence of Edo
religion and medicine has still been substantial upon
the people of the Americas .
According to Mason (1996 ) , it has been widely
accepted that Olokun ( god of the sea ) worship
originated with the Edo and spread to the Yoruba ( p. 2) .
In fact, the most prominent part of Edo cultural
traditions that has made its mark in the New World is
Olokun worship. Olokun (god of the Waters ) worship
originated from Urhonigbe and then became prominent
at Ughoton around the Ethiope ( Olokun) River . The
priesthood and rituals were firmly established at the
time . Some of the possible points of contact happened
early. During the Ogiso Period , trade with the Yoruba
and Igbos was quite extensive. Olokun worship may
have spread to those areas through traders . Prior to the
Oba Period , Ekaladerhan Izoduwa was initiated into
Olokun as a chief Priest while he stayed at Ughoton ,
before his moving westward with his followers to
establish Ilefe ( Ero , 1999 , p . 108- 109) .
Once he arrived , Ekaladerhan Izoduwa brought Edo
traditions to those areas and was a King of his new
community called Ilefe , which could be what yoruba call
IFE. . From Ekaladerhan Izoduwa ’ s loins , the Yoruba
dynasties may have began. However, it is certain that
Olokun is an Edo divinity whose worship spread to the
outlying Yoruba areas.

It's their church and doctrine, so far it's working for them and members are not complaining,let it be.

justicejay:
I decided to read a copy of the National Grazing
Reserve Council Bill and I was surprised at what I
saw.
The Bill creates a council to be chaired by a
Chairman to be appointed by the president.
The council shall have the power to take your land
anywhere the land is located in the country and
then pay you compensation.
Your land, when taken, shall be assigned to
herdsmen who shall use your land for grazing
purposes. They shall bring cows to the land and
you shall lose the land permanently to those
Fulani cattlemen.
If you feel that the council was not right to take
your land, you can go to court but before you go
to court, you must first of all notify the federal
attorney general of your intention to sue the
council. Apart from notifying, you must get the
consent and authority of the Federal Attorney
General before you can sue.
So that means that if the Attorney General
refuses to give his consent to the suit, you have
lost your land forever to the herdsmen.
And this law, when passed, shall apply to the
whole country so it means that your land in the
village or anywhere is not safe.
The National Grazing Reserve Council would have
the power to take away your land from you
anytime they want and pay you whatever they
want as compensation (even when you don't
want to sell, and remember that for you to get
compensation, you must have documents
showing or proving ownership).
So I think that we all in the South West, South
South and South East must rise up and reject this
Bill. We must do all things to force our national
Assembly members from passing that bill into
law.
That bill is a deliberate attempt to take our lands
and hand the land over to the Fulani cattlemen
since it is only the fulanis that rear cattle in
Nigeria.
That law, when passed, shall fulfil the directive of
Uthman Dan Fodio and other northern leaders to
take over other parts of Nigeria.
I implore you to use all available means to
implore your senator and Rep not to pass that
law.
That law will destroy Nigeria.

All over the world, ranches are established and
used to rear cattle. The farmers buy land and put
there cattle there. There is no country where the
land of the citizens are compulsorily acquired and
given to others.
This is evil, and designed to favour the Fulanis
where the president comes from.
We must resist the passage of that bill into law to
save Nigeria, and to protect our future
generations
Please share this piece until it goes viral. We must
defend our land and protect our children.

On a serious note I am tempted to say that, we are not ripped for democracy or Nigeria had been cursed with these evil politicians that can go to any lent to get into power with zero ability to perform.

Honesty the only true democrat of my time that I know is GEJ.

Fayose was wrong to enact such laws in the first place. The fulanis have the right to live and work in ekiti just like every other Nigerian. Why ban their business of cattle rearing when they have no other means? Why criminalize the fulanis as if all fulanis are killers? There are bad eggs amongst every tribe, why do we make it look like violence is exclusive to northerners only. The people we should frown at are cattle rustlers who steals cattle from fulanis and use them as disguise for their evil deeds. The fulanis are peaceful people who go about their business in peace and we all know they control their herds of cattle with mere sticks. Even though we call them primitive, how many southerner can rear cattle for national consumption like the fulanis? Without them how do we see beef to consume? The rustlers are armed terrorist escaping from the north east to the south. What fayose should have done is to forbid any herdsmen from moving around with weapons, not banning cattle rearing completely. If all states cooperated with the FG on creation of grazing reserves throughout the country, there will not be a single cattle left on the streets looking for grass. Instead we chastised president Buhari's brilliant policy in the name of islamization. The ripple effects are the incessant attacks by the rustlers. The grazing bill remains the best and safest option. Not unnecessary bans

Suprnov3r:
Jonathan & Oritsejafor dividing Nigeria along religious lines?

Jonathan is hated in the south south because he didn't have 97/5% mentality.

What divides a country more than implementing two different legal systems across different regions? Sharia in the north?

What divides a country more where muslims go to court not to protest quality in education or any real iaauebwith real impact but to enforce dress codes in places where uniformity is the standard worldwide?


What divides a country more when Muslims blow up several churches on sunday mornings till churches were closing down... no Muslim organisation condemns them until they started attacking mosques?


Your problem with Pa Ayo was that he was the first vocal CAN president. You like Christians when they are quiet and act like it is ok to slaughter christians ... Just like Pa Adeboye is doing now but when they speak up against evil, they become divisive


If you need a reminder about the atrocities muslims have been commiting in Nigeria, I can help you this morning.

1. Do you remember at that the supreme muslim council in Nigeria put a death fatwa on a 25 year girl for simply writing mohammeds name in a newspaper article? Do you know how many people were killed, churches burnt and millions lost because of that?


2. The current sultan of sokoto has been defending Muslim fulani marauders who have killed thousands of people since last year. Ayo or jonathan never defended any organisation that is known for killing. Yet they are divisive.

3. All of the world the Muslims commit atrocities and the same muslims expect to be tolerated?

4. You want me to keep blaming jonathan for everything when Nigeria as a country has been ruled by more of your muslim brothers whose primary aim has been to frustrate christians out of government and civil service.


Think again. Before you say rubbish and call names on posts. Know that because people generally tend to avoid arguments. It doesn't mean they don't know you are evil. They just don't care enough to let your evil distract them. It goes beyond NL. People are wary of Muslims who take their religion serious because it is a thin line from there to terrorism

Every extremist is now headed for Nigeria courtesy of Bubu, they were on their way here at Bubu's invitation ja re.

I remember a week after Bubu assumed office a prominent Lebanese Imam was detained on his way to Nigeria to probably congratulate his mentor in person.

Ajewealth123:
The fact that a cleric commended her was a problem,the fact that he even called others to listen to her was a threat to their religion. The cleric may have good intentions but some others will see it as a threat to their religion because her sermon could begin to convert them and that's what Muslims hated the most.islam is a religion whereby the people in it are so scared of hearing the truth for the fear that it may actually bring out all the hypocrisy,lies and deceit embedded in the religion. Madam,rest in peace and find favour in the eyes of The Lord. He that is good be good,he that is bad,let him be bad,BEHOLD I COME QUICKLY TO JUDGE EVERYMAN ACCORDING TO HIS HANDWORK.

1babeonly:
They are not using lagos for grazing, get sense bro... we are talking of people who kill lives, is there no fulani people in Anambra who have houses or rent to do their business like igbos in lagos or north?. Pls... South South, South east, Middle belt don't give your land for grazing to Murderers. Sokoto governor said they will provide for them in the northern part where they come from, so why should they disturb other people. I am from Adamawa, we have fulanis who rear cattle, they should graze in Adamawa, so also other states.

dasparrow:
India should take their embassy out of Nigeria and Nigeria should take her embassy out of India. I am tired of hearing Indian leaders wail. We all know the Indian is racist so they are free to ban all Nigerians from India while we ban them from Nigeria too. I am getting tired of reading about Indians abeg. They should just step aside. I also don't advise any Nigerian to go there as a foreign student either. There are better and more conducive nations that one can go to in order to study. India is just not it.

ABAMOWA:
Bros, who has even confirmed what the woman said. An Hausa man know the easiest way to kill a southerner is to use their religion. That is it. Because this woman is not new in the North so, why will she utter anything against Islam or their prophet even in a market? Is anybody thinking like me?

osesology:
These people don start again...anyway, if you are living in the north, I think you should be careful the words you say in public, esp if it is a verbal attack on islam because sharia laws are very much in full effect in that territory and if something like this should happen again, this is the same statement that you're going to get from the presidency.

BIGTinfotech:
Na wa. Is that all they can say?

I've not seen a religion like Islam that maims and kill people in The name of a god.

Yet they would urge people to remain calm, that's The annoying part.

How can one loose his wife, and you urge for calmness?

sinistermind:
If we are waiting for justice to be done, then you will wait till thy kingdom come. Whether u like it or not, a good majority of Hausa muslim over there are happy with the judgment passed on this woman and they will defend their own from prosecution.
