The only effect here will be increased in pump price. Naija prepare to start buying fuel for 200 naira per litre.

NafeesaAA:
Cattle is a cultural thing to the Fulani Man, they are a symbol of wealth and a source of pride, and a person's entire life revolves around the herds.

To a real Fulani, any pursuit other than a pastoral one, specifically the herding of cattle, is regarded as demeaning to themselves and insulting to Fula culture. Even sex, colour of the cattle and where they graze is ritually significant,

To a Fulani Man, cattle are a major sign of wealth, and are exchanged between a groom and his bride's family as a symbol of their bond (bridewealth). Essentially, their social use is to create or strengthen ties and loyalties.

Without Cattle, a Fulani Man is Mr, nobody, a outcast and a failure to the family. The Minority tribes in the NC, are aware of this, they still attack and rustle their cows. We the Fulani by our nature will always see an attack against our source of survival as an attack on our lives. This belief, understandly is cruel, because to me, no amount of herds of cattle can ever equate to the life of a single human being.

This is one reason why we should support any initiative, whether colony, protectorate, ranching, or whatever as long as its going to stop this cycle of madness.

So a fulani man values cattle than human lives?

The only way to end this is that the fulani should have their own ranches than destroying people's farms.

We condemn this act but the last time the op posted something like this, the outcome was terrible, now the security agencies should be on alert to avoid more death.

Now it is getting clearer, Buhari and his gang should know that one day, they would be made to account for their deeds and it will be said, were their deeds not written in the hearts and minds of Nigerian chronicles?

Their names would be mentioned and their wickedness would be remembered even unto their 10th generation

Did I just read this?

Not a single word for the victims of benue massacre.

We can now deduce that in Nigeria, all humans are equal but some are more equal the the other.

These sponsored protesters have no conscience and their sponsores are heartless, soon they will be paid back in their coin in Jesus name, amen.

I posted some days back that Buhari will start arresting some of his crooks just to save face cos of the elections

Bro Ay this stage & Time constraint

I don't see any good candidate from the north

The zoning of the presidency by the Two major political party leaves know one with choice than to look for the fairest among

Also note that pmb will win the north hands down

Must the candidate comes from the north?
Who says better candidate can't come from the south?
This issue of zoning has done more harm than good to the country, the only time it worked and the impact was felt was during yaradua but unfortunately he died.

It goes to the private pockets of the refined and biro touts in govt that allow their cause trouble at every bus stop in lagos.

Why can't the government ban them and the remittance by the commercial bus drivers goes in to the govt finance as tax?

Genesis 6 has nothing to do with demons, bible refers to them as sons of God, study the last verse in chapter 4 to understand better.

Bible says in Genesis 4:26. Seth also had a son, and he named him Enosh. At that time people began to call on the name of the LORD.

N.b an not saying there are no demons but demons or spirits have nothing to do with chapter 6.

I have a feeling Buhari will not re-contest.

Thank God those who painted Buhari as the Messiah are now seeing that he is failing on all angles.

My prayer is that a new breed without greed will emerge and take power from this our present crops of polithievians and make them payback all our collective common wealth, pump it back into the economy and our country will become great again, in Jesus name, amen.

This govt knows how to play government and opposition at the same time, which achievement are you talking about? Nigerians started using the word recession in all things when this clueless govt came on board.

Dollar became scarce when this government came on board

customs recorded that high because the dollar went up while the naira nosedived invariably making the naira worthless

sarrki:
The core voters are there

You will be surprised by February next year

Serious

For me based on performance I will say A BIG NO

But the party challenging pmb is a No go Area for me and people of like minds

For me based on performance I will say A BIG NO As a patriot, with this statement, you are supposed to stop supporting him.

What did PDP/Gej regime or government did for the southwest to warrant the support come 2019 ?

For the question about rail line

Its a new one completely, the type of Abuja to Kaduna

It with be delivered before 2019 election

You can take this to the bank

Except you don't want to be truthful, during gej/PDP, employment rate was high which was as a result of the govt policy bar the corruption which is still available now sir , now compare that to the high unemployment rate we have not just in sw but in the whole country due to the govt bad policies.

As for the rail, I saw some train coaches on heavy duty trucks passing in front of my office , not different from the ones gej bought, mind you new rail before 2019, fingers crossed, because Iddo rail thru oshodi to kajola is still the same Lord luggArd rail

Mynd44:
Exactly. The SW although has no reason to vote President Buhari based on his perfomance but when they are given Atiku and The rest of the guys in the opposition as options, who do you think they will (reluctantly) vote for?

I love your reasoning but let's look at this way, an average sw calls a spade a spade and has no place for sentiments, if PDP fields Atiku which I doubt, PDP may likely capture sw because the voice in town now is anybody but Buhari and that same slang emanated from the sw during the last election, anybody but Buhari then.

sarrki:
The way it stands today

Its purely APC versus PDP

Do you think Southwest will vote A northern president and A south south or South east vice president ?

Please I need an answer?

Middle belt is comprising of 6 states Benue,plateau,Nassarawa, Kogi,Kwara and Niger .

So you believe Niger , Kwara and kogi will vote against pmb ?

Southwest has done it before, ysradua and gej.

Niger will go for apc because PDP failed woefully in that state, but things can change because of the light issue and their young governor is not trying either. Sie I know niger wella.

For kwara and kogi, saraki body is in apc but his soul is in PDP so it's a 50/50 plus Abdulfatah is another disaster in thst state.

Kogi is for PDP, bello everyday makes the job easy for PDP to win.

And what if a strong alliance of new breed without greed emerges, PDP = APC, We have tasted both and it's obvious APC is worse.

sarrki:
If you want to argue

Religion, Ethnicity and Tribalism are key factors in African politics most especially Nigeria

There is know way Southwest Majority will sell away the vice president to install another party in the name of whatsoever.

Southwest are well settled politically & infrastructurally
Most of the political appointee's are from southwest

Yemi Osinbajo the VP is from southwest.

Also interms of infrastructure Ilorin - Ibadan, Lagos - Ibadan, seceding Lagos to southwest by pmb are all campaign tools

Less I forget Lagos -Abeokuta -Ibadan rail line is inclusive

So with the factors stated above I need a very constructive argument and reason why Southwest will jolt this to vote another party.

Northwest is president Muhammadu Buhari core base

He has never lost election in the northwest

Facts don't lie

What has the vp done for the south west? Even the son of his G.O is bashing the government, so tell me.

This lagos abeokuta Ibadan rail line you keep mentioning, is it a new project or the same rail line that has been on ground since time immemorial and gej came and gave it a face lift.

Which lagos Ibadan express way, the speed of that project since this govt took over is less than that of a snail.

And what makes you think south west will give him their votes, try and do a little sample survey in the west and you will indeed behold the truth.

Mind you if the middle belt, SS and SE should combine forces together, baba is a goner.

Though I doubt he will recontest.
Good morning.

Selfish president, so he is more concerned about how his government has been affected than the number of lives lost to the herdsmen menace due to his incompetence abi he is tactically supporting the herdsmen sef.

NaoSlay:

Fayose is a terrorist.

He should be jailed.

Fulani herdsmen are peaceful.

DSS report stated it's Islamic state that is responsible for Benue attacks.

Fayose that has not done anything in yoruba land and ekiti will now be like a hero.

Well, we close to election already.

All these turenchi because of fayose's act against herdsmen?

Deep within you, you know he is doing the right thing but that part of you would not just want to admit it.

In as much as he is not fit to rule Nigeria, his boldness is to be admired by all, his native knowledge and wisdom is class.

When will jni condemn muric?
When will jni condemn the act of arresting a christian guy because he converted a matured muslim lady?
When will jni condemn herdsmen extermination of some benue, adamawa and taraba clans?

Jni=fulani herdsmen = advanced boko Haram.

DO YOU KNOW?

The First Church in Nigeria was built in 1842, some say 1898 (Google it)

BUT

1.The first Mosque was built in Ọyọ-Ile in 1550 A.D. (Google it)

2.The most recognized in history is the Great Mosque
of Kano built in 1582.
The great mosque was built for Muhammad Rumfa in the 15th century and was moved to a new site by Muhammad Zaki in 1582.

However, history has it that mosques were built in

Iwo town in 1655 followed by

Iṣẹyin, in 1760;

Lagos, 1774;

Ṣaki, 1790;

and Oṣogbo, 1889.

The bottom line is whether 1550 or 1582, Islam has been in existence in Nigeria for almost three centuries before the coming of Christianity.

The British came and forced their religion on our forefathers which led to lots of them changing their names and becoming Christians.

Next time CAN talks about Islamization of Nigeria, please educate them.!
Islam did not just start. It has been there. If we did not islamize anyone all these years is it now because Buhari is president.

Why is CAN even screaming islamization now that for the first time a pastor is in the villa as vice president?
There was never an Imam who became Governor. In benue we had a Catholic priest as governor. In taraba we had a reverend both in Northern Nigeria. Now we have a pastor as vice President.

Please let religious bodies sow the seeds of peaceful coexistence not disharmony and needless suspicion.
QED!!!!
Copy and paste or share

We know your style, the president is failing and you are trying to derail this thread, abi you are depressed too ni?

Pst Femi Adeshina, hope this job won't stop you from making heaven like this?

The president is depressed you say, yet Miyetti Allah are still causing havoc and nobody has been brought to book.

The president is depressed, yet he has not visited the victims.

The president is depressed, what should we now say about the victims?

Fear God and obey His commands, this is the conclusion of the matter.

Confirmed, presidency not OK.

Oga day just they break for your side? Oga senator, where do u belong APC, PDP, all of the above or none of the above?

GavelSlam:
Many Nigerians actually most Nigerians are dunces I'm sorry to say.

Questions to ask:

Did the EFCC go to the media and who officially gave a comment?

If most Nigerians were as intelligent and honest as they portray on Nairaland why is there so much hunger and fraud in the land?

If you were really concerned about your country why are you supportive of alleged crime?

Why not allow the politicians expose each other?

If we have collectively been making the right decision why is there discontent?

When you scream distraction what are you being distracted from and how does it affect your day to day transaction?

What do you do to improve your economy and by extension the economy of the nation?

You sha take pleasure in polite insult.

Yes effc official did or the nation owned by a chieftain of the APC lied about the news?

Hunger in the land, perhaps I should ask, since you are very intelligent, why do we still have hunger in the land?

God forbid that I support crime but it is terrible when the govt keeps using years to rehearse on how to catch a thief, when will the graduate on how to catch the thief? Tell me how many people have been brought to book both in the APC or PDP?

And who is stopping them from exposing themselves, well may be those who are benefiting from them

Making the right decision will only work the day we decide to call a spade a spade irrespective of who we support. It begins with us.

I will keep screaming distraction until they follow due process and real thieves are being caught without a way of escape for the thieves.

Bello has gone mad again ooooo, who shall deliver kogi indigenes from this fellow?

If this government continues to tow this path of using social media to fight corruption, a time will come, majority will not take them serious again.

The court is there to try looters and why feed the papers with inconclusive investigation, at the end of the day, nothing will happen.

Abi because election is around the corner, you want to distract us with this news, we focus on this and ignore the state of the nation, it can't work.

GavelSlam:
What's this one saying?

Truth and you know it's the truth

GavelSlam:
Why not kill them already?

Agreed, they need to modernise at the same time the request for allocation of Ranching Land is being rejected across the country .

I am sure you are from the north, you have a large land mass, why can't you give them portion of lands for ranching than walking length and breadth of the country destroying farms.

Or better still, you don't want them to be educated like you so you can continue to use them to play the game of politics to the advantage of the minority elite of the north.

Have you ever asked yourself why all the animals in the zoo are not always kept together, but each specie in its on corner?

So which specie are you and kindly tell us the corner you own?

I feel we need to go beyond this level of ipob, afonja and zoo...If we indeed want the best.

ArodeTsolaye:
GTFOH!

You agreed that you are an animal the day you voted the fulani imbec..ile who called you 'dogs and baboons'. I am not your zoogerian compatriot.

And who told you I voted for him?
It is well with you.
