For me this is what I’ll say.
The boy was just scared in school to report. He needed to be in his safe space first.
2: how did the brother know the names of those other boys?
3: things like this for me I think the school should just say they are carrying out investigations rather than save their name first.
Well what do I know. RIP to the boy

It seems most of you guys usually failed to know the role of the military in society building. The military could be called upon to fill any role when you have a failure in that department. If your traffic warden and other similar agencies had done their jobs with passion and professionally soldiers wouldn't have been drafted there in the first place. Soldiers won't just come out to start controlling traffic without a request in their high command. Soldiers are trained to manage and control traffic if you don't know. You should know that for you to see soldiers performing the role of a civil agency there's a breach somewhere and strict compliance is expected. Next time he won't stop to buy stuffs at traffic when soldiers are controlling the traffic.

Well a list of top journalists from around the world compile a list of players from 1-20 or so and these players are selected based on their individual and collet performances during the specific year. That’s what I know

why was Jorginho on the podium if Bayern won the UCL. Betting no be football.

Personally for me I’ll say due to his accurate penalties and his contributions during the euros which eventually he ended up winning.

Stop mixing last season with this season.

The award being cancelled last season is not a valid excuse to give him this year.

That's just like saying a student that should have graduated last year (but didn't graduate due to Corona/ASSU strike), should not have an extra year (even when he clearly have outstanding courses), just because
Corona/ASSU already wasted one year.


It doesn't work that way.
Alright we’ll this season has Messi been a better player than lewandoski or salah?? From what was posted by BR and goal plus fabrizio messis greatest achievement this year was copa America and helping a struggling Barcelona. Let’s call a spade a spade. But I don’t think you’ll agree but let to me he doesn’t deserve it.

A lot of people here are just coming at CR7 fans but it’s bigger than that. Messi doesn’t deserve this one and he knows. Lewandoski is there. He won the champions league, uefa super cup. Golden boot for his league. He won his league and other cups. For the fact that he was denied this award last season he should have won it now. This season he is way ahead of Messi.

It’s just sad but it has happened

A lot of people in the dog selling business always say their dogs are imported and add an extra price on their dogs.

I just want some sellers and buyers to know that because your dog is imported doesn’t mean it’s pure.

Also I don’t think everything is about the government. As a people we should be able to advance and make life better for ourselves. Also I think bringing PMB into this is out of context and will only take us back to being biased, political and tribalistic. Once again thank you. It has been great so far
ArewaNorth:


Govts at all level in Nigeria are not performing their rightful duties. The grazing routes are made by colonial masters, therefore our Legislators have the responsibility to make mutually beneficial laws especially in areas where there are conflicts.
Herders are Nigerians, and states with significant number of herders should have made laws to regulate their business, the laws must meet the contemporary standards of cattles breeding that will make the business modern and highly profitable. The neglect is too much not only on this single case but in all the daily living of Nigerians.
Our leaders are so lazy that they can't even make laws that can meet the culture, tradition and complexity of Nigerians but went to some extent to borrow most of their Govt style and policies from whites. How do u expect such people to tackle your problems except by force?
The solution to the problem is for both state and Federal Legislators to make laws which are unequivocally not bias, fair, beneficial to all and free from ethno-religious hitches.
Govt should use both kinetic and non-kinetic approach to deal with the rising issues of banditry and kidnapping which are mostly in the circle of Fulani.
Nigerians should eschew stereotyping and ethnic profiling of Fulani because of their political differences with PMB because the Fulani causing these havoc are very few comapred to Fulani population. Both innocent and bad herders living in the bush can't account for 2% of Fulani population in Nigeria.

Well once again thank you. You mentioned blocking of routes and more. Don’t you think that we have gotten to the stage and time where cows and herders don’t just roam the streets or wherever they feel like but a secluded space they can call their own? This way no one can come and disrupt their herding. This way their cows won’t be stolen easily. Also I’ll like to hear from you since we are already engaged in this topic. How can these acts be stopped or reduced
ArewaNorth:


FARMERS-HERDERS CLASH
For many years there has always been a conflict between farmers and herders. The main cause of the problem are these; some traditional rulers sell large portion of grazing lands (RUGA) to farmers which consequently lead to conflicts because the supposed land to have their cows graze is sold and turned farm will block their route and herders will graze their cows in it, some herders believe grazing on people's land can bring prosperity on their cows (superstition).
BANDITRY
Fulani were allegedly used as a tool to get easy money by a combined team of traditional rulers, Police, Judges and some business men. When herder commit offence the police and court charge him too much money, he has to sell cows and pay. Vigilant group set up to tackle banditry later became used to extra judicially kill the Fulani bandits in an attempt to stop the bribery and corruption in the supposed to be justice system. However, this killing made the Fulani bandits to slowly become what they are today.
The police sometimes will take all the cows to police station and sell them if they commit a big crime. Their fellow Fulani bandits started stealing their cows (hundred of cows) untill they rendered them cowless to the extent that if you don't have one of your child among the bandits they'll steal all cows from your family. The rich local business men enjoy stolen cows at cheaper prices. If the bandits are caught they get a soft landing from judges in connivance with Police and release them (justice was a subject of cash exchange at the highest bids in Zamfara, Sokoto, Katsina).
Before we know, a syndicate of bandits were organised which is a product of banditry, neglect and injustice. After losing their cows to banditry and injustice they join the syndicate of banditry to survive because herders only know how to herd cows and nothing more.
Note: for a herder, it is better to lose a relative to death than to lose a cow, cow is the most precious thing for them, more important than God to the most illiterates among them.
EXTENSION OF CONFLICT TO SOUTHERN NIGERIA AND NORTH-CENTRAL STATES
In a typical transhuman practice, Fulani cattle breeders usually drive their herds from their original home lands in the arid Sahel region of Northern Nigeria during the dry season into guinea savannah and the rainforests of central and southern Nigeria in search of greener pasture. Once the raining season sets in, nomadic herdsmen will commence a homeward journey from the south through the central to the northernmost part of the country. And year after year, the seasonal cycle of movement of cattle from north to south and back to the north has become the defining feature of the Fulani cultural occupation of nomadic pastoralism in Nigeria.
However, this practice is not without its problems. In a country of indigenous tribesmen and not a nation of citizens such as Nigeria, where access to land is mostly by privilege of birth and not always an economic right, the indigenous peoples of central and southern Nigeria are predominantly farmers, who require their lands for crop cultivation. The cultural occupation of farming of these indigenous communities usually gets disrupted by the transhumance of the Fulani herdsmen, whose cows often stray into farmlands and eat up crops, even before they are harvested. With a weak policing system and slow dispensation of justice by constituted authorities, aggrieved parties often take the laws in their hands, thereby ensuing in farmers/herders clashes.
At the core of this ethnic nationalism is the carefully contrived mindset that there is such a thing as a legally gazetted grazing reserves and routes for herdsmen, which has now been encroached upon by sedentary communities along the lines of the traditional routes, running from the north to the south. Convinced about the existence of these gazetted routes and reserves across Nigeria, many Fulani herdsmen have now come to believe themselves to be the victims and farmers the offenders in the encroachment upon their traditional grazing routes. Motivated by this belief, the Fulani herdsman now considers the invasion of farmlands with their cows and destruction of crops as only a legitimate process for the recovery of their grazing routes. And when farming communities put up resistance to what they consider as trespass, an armada of Fulani militia men were mobilised into Nigeria from the neighbouring countries of the Sahel to launch a “cow war” in Nigeria

Politics / Re: Sheikh Gumi Takes Medical Outreach To Herdsmen In Kogi Forest by Adrian98(m): 9:49am On Nov 24, 2021
Thank you for this but you only talked about Gumi and not specifically about the bandits or herdsmen and how they are causing havoc. Once again thank you
ArewaNorth:

It is obvious that Sheikh Gumi is a Medical Doctor and former Army Captain and later retired and became Islamic scholar.
Islam is a very vast and complex religion, it is very difficult for Non-Muslims and Muslims with little knowledge of Islam and Islamic history to understand Gumi and his actions.
Gumi belongs to the Mutazilite school of thought, one of Islamic philosophy. Just like how we have people with Shi'a or Sunni philosophy but he is Sunni with Mutazilite principles.
Muʿtazilites believe that good and evil are not always determined by revealed scripture or interpretation of scripture, but they are rational categories that could be "established through unaided reason"; because knowledge is derived from reason; reason, alongside scripture, was the "final arbiter" in distinguishing right and wrong.
The school worked to resolve the theological "problem of evil": how to reconcile the justice of an all-powerful God with the reality of evil in the world talkless of human Govt like Nigerian Govt.
The test of life is specifically for adults in full possession of their mental faculties. Children may suffer, and are observed to suffer, given the nature of life but they are believed to be completely free from sin and liability. Divine justice is affirmed through the theory of compensation. All sufferers will be compensated. This includes Non-believers and, more importantly, children, who are destined to go to Paradise without any after life trial. No specific Islamic Nation that have this philosophy as very few scholars are today left with this ideology especially Euro-American Islamic scholars.
Going by the Islamic Philosophy of Mutazilites which is the ideology of Sheikh Gumi and the only Islamic scholar in Nigeria with this ideology, it can be seen that there is nothing to be surprised from Gumi's actions except from Non-Muslims who are not familiar with this Islamic school of thought. They are extremely moderate and believe all sins can be forgiven, no matter the gravity of the sin.
Sheikh Gumi is one of the scholars that are not liked by most Nigerian Muslims due to his controversial views on Islamic principles which are in most cases contrary to the Teachings of Hadith.
