When Jonathan went on his knees to pray in a church, that devil El Rufai captioned the pic and mocked not only Jonathan but all Christians in Nigeria.
The twit was widely circulated and shared by many northern Moslems and some agents of shaitan claiming Christianity also insulted Jonathan for openly practising his faith.
Jonathan went on pilgrimage to Israel just once in his 6yrs in office and I recall the uproar and insults that that trip generated.
Every year without fail, Buhari and his wife alongside a retinue of govt officials travel to Saudi Arabia twice annually and nobody complains.
Now we see this heartless woman excersing her superstitious belief at public expense and same idiots that condemned Jonathan for praying to his God will be the same ones cheering this nonsense.
Yoruba and Awusa Fulani hypocrisy knows no bounds.
AyakaDunukofia: One sided analysis. Have you factored in the current global geopolitics visaviz the post cold war politics of the US and Russia.... What positions are each going to take?
We are living in a global village of fast communication where issues of human rights and international law are taking seriously more than ever?
The support of the very weak countries you mentioned would have minimal bearing comparing with a single open support for Ss/Se by a major global player.
Don't forget that the two regions have a quantum of resources to strike a bargain with the most powerful nations, even though their demand is legitimate and legal.
Keep reading my posts.
I have covered beyond our border states.
And consider the title of this thread - I am discussing global ramifications of another civil war in Nigeria and reviewed how Arab league nations led by Saudi Arabia will definitely support the Nigerian state and lobby their western allies.
Ibrahimmrfish: I never said Christianity and Islam have something in common.What i said is Arabic is just a language and the name of God in the language is Allah,Arabs have Muslims, Christians,jewish,Dorazi,Bahala,there are Arabs practicing all those religions and the word they use to refer God is Allah.Your argument is that the Arab Bible use Jehovah instead of Allah for God.My request was simply since you are very knowledgeable and have seen such Bible then please snap it so that i also can see it.I ask you over five times to show me the verse but yet you are trying to divert.It is clear that you are an ignorant and arrogant person,that don't know what he is arguing about and is to proud to admit it.If you can not provide that verse,then please don't quote me.
I totally disagree.
Arabic name Allah is not synonymous to the Christian God.
I also don't subscribe to the Muslim Jesus who you call Isa.
Your username implies that your name is Ibrahim. The linguistic variant of Ibrahim is Abraham. Same for Moses who is known in the Arab tongue as Musa. Yakub for Jacob, Dauda for David, etc.
The Isa in the Quaran bears no link to Jesus. Why couldn't the angel reveal Jesus name to Mohammed? Because the devil that masauereded as Gabriel (Jubril) could not pronounce the name of Yeshua!
Same logic applies for Allah. As a Christian I can never be deceived by these two names (Isa and allah) as they are not in any form or way related to Yeshua and YHW.
So understand here why I can never accept any reason you present in defending thus sacrilegious inscription on the Nigerian army logo.
AntiWailer: It makes sense only to the gullible and senseless.
How many people can possibly be in a RUGA settlement that will warrant altering 25% of a state vote.
Does that mean industrial parks also affect 25%
Also 25% is needed in just 24 states irrespective of the region. This has never been a problem for any body before.
This generation of "No Thinkers" always say "it is true" to anything they read no matter how ridiculously stupid it sounds as long as it is in line with the hatred in their mind.
Yes it is good to have Ur preference , it is ok to hate some one but allowing it affect your sense of reasoning and intelligence is not good for u at all.

When you consider that Ruga is meant to create exclusively autonomous Fulani settlements that will be given full local govt autonomy complete with a Fulani Amir just as in Jos and Kaduna that will be populated by fulanis from across West Africa then this theory is not far fetched.
Today I know that fulanis are claiming Jos North as their land and that Jos North is also a federal constituency.
The crisis in Jos started from this same Jos North where fulanis went on rampage over the election of a non Fulani as a local govt chairman.
Ibrahimmrfish: No,you said that Arab Christians use the word Jehovah in place of Allah in their Bible,which means you are fluent in Arabic and have a copy of an Arabic Bible,so all i ask you is to please just snap the part of the Bible and post it so that i could see it with my own two eyes.Don't worry i am also fluent in Arabic so no matter what you post i can translate it.
You do agree that Islam, Talmuduc Judaism and Christianity have nothing in common.
Why then should the God of the Bible be called Allah?
The Bible predates the quaran and at no time is there any mention of an allah.
Ibrahimmrfish: Guy you are deviating from your previous statement,Provide the point you made earlier.Provide a screen shot of Arabic Bible were they use Jehovah instead of Allah and i will rest my argument.
Muslims in Malaysia went on rampage over a Catholic newsletter written in Malay referred to God as Allah.
The Muslims said it was a ploy by the Catholic Church to deceive Muslims into converting to Christian by claiming the God of the Bible is the same to that of the pagan Moslem goddess.
Toriperisc: Pastor Enoch Adeboye, General Overseer, Redeemed Christian Church of God (RCCG), has prophesied that Nigeria would come out great, march forward and overcome its numerous challenges.
He made the prophetic declarations in his sermon at the 67 Holy Ghost Congress held at the Redemption Camp, KM 46, Lagos/Ibadan Expressway, however, urged Nigerians to return to God, NAN reports.
Adeboye also declared, There will be an end to emptiness, materially, spiritually and economically in Nigeria.
Speaking on the topic: And God Said, Let There be Light, Adeboye declared: The plan of God for Nigeria is that when light comes to the nation, Nigeria will be great, it will progress and move forward.
There will be light, means let progress begin; when there was darkness in Egypt for three days, the Egyptians could not stand up for three days.
Darkness stops progress; when you are surrounded with darkness, your progress will not be accelerated.
Let There be Light also means that there will be fullness and fruitfulness in Nigeria.
The cleric who took his text from Psalm 30, verse five, said that weeping could endure for a night, but that joy would come in the morning.
This means that Nigeria shall sorrow no more; it means all the forces in heaven will see that Nigeria and Nigerians will succeed; rain will fall on our land in the right season.
Nigerians will sow on good soil, many people have not succeeded because they have no one to help them, when God blesses you, you cannot be cursed by anyone, he said.
Adeboye, however, said that 86 children were delivered at the campground, comprising 45 boys, 41 girls.
Ibrahimmrfish: Well i have no idea you are fluent in Arabia.Since you have a Arabic Bible,please snap the part they wrote Jehovah for Allah and i will rest my case.And o,my mother's father is Lebanese so before you want to continue with your lying,know that you are talking to a person that know more on middle East than you.I will be waiting for the screen shot of the verse.
As a Christian, God revealed His name as "I AM THAT I AM".
Any other name is from the devil
Jeremiah 23:27:
Which think to cause my people to forget my name by their dreams which they tell every man to his neighbour, as their fathers have forgotten my name for Baal.
Ibrahimmrfish: And yet Arab Christians use the name Allah in reference to God for over 2000 years.Even the one you worship(Jesus) also used the word illah,which is God in aramaic.Which is the language of Jesus not Hebrew,at the time of Jesus Hebrew was already a dead language.So if your Jesus call Allah,illah and you are here talking trash,it shows that you don't know much about the history of the world and about the history of your religion.
Arab Christians refer to God as Jehovah and nothing else.
It is only Nigerian Christians who use Allah and this can be traced to a badly translated copy of the Bible into Arabic and Hausa that circulated the north.
No Christian will refer to the God of the Bible as that of the pagan moon goddess of Arabia.
oyatz: When you want to go to the next war, you need to plan very well. Don't rush to war basing your survival on the expected Goodwill of your opponents (what if they don't cooperate?)
Make adequate preparations for food storage. Train your army well Develop or acquire superior Technology that is far above your opponents.
Get trustworthy and dependable Allies.
Biafrans didn't go to war on Nigeria. It was Nigeria that declared war on Biafra.
Printerscanner: At the end of the day, over three million Biafrans were used for pepper soup and suya by Yoruba/Hausa/Fulani soldiers while several millions of their girls, ladies and women were used as sex slaves. And you still call them gallant soldiers?
Karma dey do press up for zamfara, Benue , Taraba and Plateau.
When he train finish for those side nah your afonja land e dey come.
seguno2: He is confusing technology with heritage/culture. I wonder if he has no certificate like our president and his CJN
I am sure he prefers the Islamic institution to be in place in Yoruba land as he made it clear that a new cultural revival similar and aligned to Sokoto will be more beneficial in his global outlook.
You guys have too many inferior complexed Muslims ready to betray you again.
The Fulani downgrading of Yoruba Moslem is a ploy to have Yoruba Moslems to be their lackeys.
With less than a thousand regular army personnel before the start of the war, the Biafran Army was composed mainly of civilians.
Williams spoke about training (6 mths) and need for more men to win the war. He was impressed by the gallantry and bravery of the Biafran war time recruits.
ManTiger: Told you she was gonna win but you don't believe cos she's a woman, black and Nigerian. Lolz
The woman is intelligent and her family is an asset to the American society. The difference between her and Aisha Yesufu is that she gave up on Nigeria and relocated, most of you who mock Yesufu on twitter don't even know a shii about her.
Watch her speak. Congrats Mrs Suara. Meanwhile, I'm a Christian if you wanna know.
Am sure she won by results of the dead voting for her plus illegal immigrants being bussed to voting units plus manipulation of the actual figures collated.
MetaPhysical: Shyyyyyytte!!! Modafvkr had over 3million of them at disposal. What did he do with them? He led them to their grave while he saved his own @$$ from bullet fire.
Ostrogoth: Not necessarily superior but more effective especially technologies. We might preserve some but for how long? I bet the Yoruba I speak today will be unintelligible to the yorubas of 1919 and they'll probably feel like they are on an alien planet if they walked the earth today. My point is the world is already a global village; we gotta individually customize who we individually want to be from the plethora of available options as well as seek for ways to get ahead of the pack (just as Japan did technologically) instead of clinging desperately to a sinking past which will inevitably be sunk further and further by future generations just as our elders currently accuse us of doing. And no offense intended!
So in essence, you want emirates to replace the traditional stools in Yoruba land
It's pure propaganda by Biafran forces. I didn't know better and thought Ibos were victims not knowing they were the main aggressors and covetous bastards that I have come to know.
Read on for your enlightenment on Ibo propaganda tricks .
Thanks
Hugh "Taffy" Williams was a professional soldier of fortune who served in the Congo with Mike Hoare and 5 Commando Congo as well as a Major in Biafra. Born in Wales, he grew up and received his military training in South Africa. Noted for his bravery under fire he served two tours of duty with the Biafran Army, rising to the rank of Major and was the last white mercenary to leave the country as secession ended.[1]
Williams found his Biafran troops to be completely different from those whom he commanded in Katanga. "I've seen a lot of Africans at war" he was quoted as saying. "But there's nobody to touch these people. Give me 10,000 Biafrans for six months, and we'll build an army that would be invincible on this continent. I've seen men die in this war who would have won the Victoria Cross in another context".[2]
Williams was assigned one hundred Biafran fighters in early 1968, and managed to keep two battalions of Chadian mercenaries serving with the Nigerian Federal Army at bay for twelve weeks with only antiquated weapons. After Williams redeployed his forces in early April, the Chadians forded the Cross River at two locations, and captured Afikpo, a main town on the western side.[3]
Completing his first contract and following a brief stay in the UK, Williams returned to Biafra on 7 July 1968. He was assigned to the 4th Commando Brigade led by Lt. Col Rolf Steiner. Steiner had command of 3000 men, and was assigned to the area around the Enugu - Onitsha road. Williams, who liked to joke that he was "half-mad", would personally lead his troops into battle, sometimes standing in a hail of Federal gunfire, just to prove to his troops that he was indeed "bullet-proof". His resolve under fire would often unnerve the more superstitious of Nigerian soldiers and serve to rally his own.[4]
On 24 August 1968 Williams was drawn into a critical battle of the conflict. At this point, he had 1000 soldiers under his command which carried out counteroffensives against two battalion-sized enemy units attempting to cross the Imo River Bridge with Soviet military advisers. When Williams returned to Aba for additional ammunition to continue the fight, he was told that there was simply none to be had. The Nigerian Air Force had become quite successful in blocking supplies into the beleaguered state. Some of Williams' men had only two rounds left for their rifles and many were forced to withdraw.[5]
Ugosample: something tells me that Trump is just as culpable as Clinton in this nonsense
just that Trump fan boys will want to protect their lord and saviour and Clinton fan boys will want to protect and absolve him of blame
but something tells me
Trump is just as rotten as Clinton
Trump fell out with Epstein a long time ago and banned him from visiting any of his resorts after a staffer complained of Epstein making advances to his younger daughter who was on a summer job.
Donelli: The Arab league, most definitely. The State of Israel, on the other hand, quite dicey. The Palestinian issue comes to mind. Where they go, the US probably will tilt in that direction.
You left out the Persians. Do you think it will be an opportunity to spite the Arab world by grabbing a chunk off the north?
Iran will not interfere.
They have a real threat of going to war with NATO.
Not that they afraid of war with the US but rather because they don't have the resources at hand to waste in trying to carve out territory in the north.
At best they will be glad the Saudis throw their money into the conflict financing the Nigerian war effort but other than that, I don't see why Iran will get involved.
Iran has bigger fish to fry like Israel, Saudi Arabia and the US.
