The real reason why the Fulani Islamist system so much hate the south is not because of Christianity or politics.

The reason is because the south/ Middlebelt liberal values.

They see that the south allows their women so much freedom and power etc,the south allow freedom in dressing, association between both sexes,and many more liberal attitudes.

They know that their people,especially their women see these things and it threatens their long held beliefs , ideologies and power systems.They are afraid of a rebellion by their general youth population.

They hate that the south permits these things and they wish and desire to suppress these things,that therefore means an intent and desire to control the SOUTH/ Middlebelt.

That's why there is the so called islamization agenda.they want to “islamize” the SOUTH- in reality control the south/ Middlebelt values,changing it to a similar conservative value of the Fulani system.

That's is the core main reason why they hate and seem to want to control the south.it's beyond politics,beyond 1966 coup or deeping the quoran in the ocean,It's beyond oil money.

The Igbo is a core representation of the liberal values they fear,that is why they seem to target the Igbo more.

Lol... Fulani target the igbos ?, they are joking. Igbos are unbeatable, take tht to the bank

He is one of the richest men in Nigeria.

Connoisseur:
At some point, even sworn enemies' interests align.

The issue of Monday's sit at home in the South East has been a recurring situation. The IPOB at the time have washed it's hand off the enforcement of this order and have encouraged citizens to go about their lawful activities. The right thing to do at this time should be to reiterate this position and advice all traders to resume business activities especially in Onitsha which have been the only remaining sector kept hostage by this order.

To do this, even though it supports the government position, is not a betrayal of the Biafra struggle or abandoning the leader in his travails. There is always a time for alignment and realignment. This call will also calm and descalate the situation in the region and would have encouraged the state government to call of the closure of the main market in Onitsha.

Let us all put ourselves and the citizens we claim to fight for in consideration in all of our actions.
On this case, let's agree to disagree.

You have a good point, but the real problem is that if they start coming out now, one group possibly sponsored by the government will start killing and shooting them in the name of Biafra in order to give Biafra and Nnamdi Kanu a bad name ....and bear in mind that with Nnamdi Kanu going on appeal, the real legal battle is about to begin.

Five Biafran states are there ... Anambra, Enugu, Ebonyi, Akwaibom, cross river ✅

And Nnamdi Kanu is in prison in Sokoto serving life term for advocating for the same thing Igboho advocated..no problem Nigeria, continue your double standard.

At least we now know that Nnamdi Kanu is different because he is the only real activist among every activists.

Burob:
Propaganda, nobody gave the terrorist any honorary citizenship.

All mischief propaganda.

Bro the honorary citizenship award really pained and shocked you that you are denying something that was even posted on nairaland front page.... nawaooo...Kanu and Biafra are indeed your nightmares. Sorry.

Money is not my motivation..I have always being a Ronaldo fan, and the opportunity to play with the GOAT will help me grow in my career as I will learn a lot from him. So I will go for Al Nassr

But make I hear say no he because of the money...GOAT ke 😂

Dalohad:
Justhief Omotosho wanted to make the US see MNK as an enemy, but e nor work.

Infact it back fired..

A Judge that was stammering and grammatically-challenged, with his heavy tribal accent..

I wonder how he became a Judge in Nigeria.

Obviously, na quota system judge . The man showcased his illiteracy that day,,,no wonder he couldn't tell kanu the law he was using to try him

Since the news came out that the state of Georgia just granted Nnamdi Kanu honorary citizenship, some haters of anything Biafra have been having running stomach.

But come to think of it, this was a man the federal government convicted of terrorism about two months ago, and falsely claimed he threatened to bomb US and UK Embassy.

Some of you haters of Biafra instead of accepting that Kanu is bigger than you and all your schemes to bring him down and destroy his freedom movement, you are now asking how will honorary citizenship of united states help him out of his case.

Well, let me help your ignorance, first of all, the matter is not concluded to the final point as Kanu is appealing his conviction, and united states in the middle of the whole matter coming out to offer him honorary citizenship is a direct indictment against Nigeria and all the false charges against him of terrorism and threats to bomb US and UK Embassies....it shows that US is doing the exact opposite of what Nigeria is doing to the man...or have you seen United states offering citizenship to a foreign terrorist before ?

Obviously the news rattled you people cus that was the last thing you expected to hear this year. Asking how the US citizenship will help Kanu was like asking how the US refusal to prescribe IPOB when Nigeria proscribed IPOB helped Kanu and IPOB.

You can continue fooling yourselves about Biafra, IPOB, and Nnamdi Kanu's matter, but bear it in mind that the world knows the truth of everything happening in Nigeria, and one day you all will be called to answer for your crimes and foolishness. Just like the way you people were grooming and pampering terrorists and you thought the US and the rest of the world was not watching, it took a single twit from Trump and a little well delivered Christmas night package for your senses to reset.

This is front page worthy ,...

rickpat:
This federal character commission is the most stupid thing in this nigeria....wetin be their work?..if not to reduce merit and promote mediocracy....if na 10 people from a particular tribe go do a job well,give them na..instead of sharing it among tribes,weda some tribe go bring goat as their representative sef..they go still join them...nigeria can never move if we still think tribe over competence

The truth is that Nigeria can never move unless you break it along that tribal lines.

Igbo amaka meeeeen

If e pain you go and make 5.00 CGPA and become overall best graduating student in a great and highly competitive school like Unilag.

The dot in a circle is the shining light and hope of black man

Nigeria is gone ..even a blind man has seen it

Ajala the traveler


When will you sit down one place in Nigeria

Tinubunomics is a disaster.... tufiakwa

Another Yoruba appointment

When it comes to tribalism and nepotism,Tinubu made Buhari look like a saint

I lost interest in finishing the list the moment I saw Tinubu accountant.

What does accountancy has to do with heroin trafficking ?

Which school did he study the accountancy ?

Who were his fellow accountancy student ?

Which firm did he practice the accountancy ?

Fraud#

You want to collect income tax from people who have no income?

Tinubu and french president are criminals

PETE EDOCHIE has no equal

Even the Olu Jacobs some Yoruba people are struggling to attach to the level of Pete is many miles below Pete and doesn't even come close. ( Most Yorubas are mentioning him because he is Yoruba, if Pete is Yoruba and Olu is Igbo, Yorubas would told you Pete is totally on a league of his own)

Pete is actually the king of nollywood...


Olu Jacobs can only justle to be a cabinet member where Pete Edochie is the king .

Effect of good governance.

Oti is doing well, and he is attract reputable brands to Abia state.

Lol

Jakumo:
Kanu's hysterical screaming at a sitting judge demonstrated that he is totally unhinged and thus unsuited for release even if the government would otherwise have been inclined to do so. Nigeria is under siege by terror gangs in the north, middle belt and some areas of the south, so the LAST thing the government would want to contend with on top of all that mayhem, would be to have Kanu resume his rabble-rousing online instigations to gratuitous violence in Igboland, or perhaps even across the entire Nigerian nation.

Kanu has regrettably lost the final vestiges of his fragile sanity, as evidenced by the way he acts up with the impulsive petulance of a spoiled child who bites his mother in the kneecaps because he was scolded for wetting his bed. No sir, Kanu will NOT be released any time soon. He will be kept in jail for quite a few years to come, purely to shut him up and preserve a fragile peace in Igboland.

I will take a wild guess that Kanu will be handed a ten-year prison sentence tomorrow, out of compassion because in reality he deserves to rot in prison for life.

Your ignorance is part of the larger problem of Nigeria....you have locked kanu up since 2021 and yet the insecurity only increased, and you still think keeping him in detention will solve anything...bro if kanu is sentenced tomorrow, you might end up seeing bigger insecurity you can not handle . Nigeria needs the releasing of kanu tomorrow to show to the world than they are ready for democracy and rule of law, more especially now that world attention is on Nigeria through Trump who you know very well that is tactility supporting Nnamdi kanu whom he invited to his 2018 election campaign.

I see the court having no better option than freeing Nnamdi kanu tomorrow. Except Nigeria government is extremely dumb that they will fail to release him tomorrow...

This is because the world is watching and adding kanu's case will worsen the situation Nigeria currently found herself with the global attention president Trump has brought to Nigeria internal affairs.

Another reason that gives a clue is the statement yesterday by president Tinubu that the judicial should be Impartial...he couldn't be saying such if they had planned to deliver a wrong judgement on the matter

Moreso is the fact that there is no extant law to use and convict kanu, plus the fact that those broadcasts and oral witnesses aren't enough to convict anyone for terrorism offense . To convict him without an extant law and strong evidence will be stupidity taken too far by the Nigerian government.

And finally, the government actually locked him up to derail and weaken his agitation, not that the government has any evidence of any wrong doings against him. Government has to some extent achieved their aim...the best is to let him go.

I also foresee a situation where Tinubu's government will remove the proscription on IPOB, and call for a national dialogue on the matter to find a more diplomatic and lasting solutions to the agitation.

Tomorrow will shock so many people who are hoping and wishing that court will convict Nnamdi kanu...the truth is that there is no practical legal way he can be convicted without going against the constitution of the federal republic of Nigeria ( section 36(12) ) , and without bringing embarrassment to the judicial and the country at large.

Nice one

tundegan:
Nnamdi Kanu is a traitor and should be treated as such. We dont need any misleading narrative about him.

And Tinubu is a savior..may he save you and family

I saw a post on nairaland which says Nnamdi kanu bows to pressure, opens his defense...see Link https://www.nairaland.com/8556555/kanu-bows-court-order-begins

And I ask, is that the mods who pushed the misleading post to front page no longer do their due diligence before pushing a post to the front Page ?

Today at the court, Nnamdi kanu stood his ground and refused to open any defense...the court processes he filled had nothing to do with opening his defense, he challenged the court's jurisdiction to trial him and demanded that the law in which he is being tried be shown to him before he can open any defense.

That was what angered justice omotosho, and he angrily closed the case and fixed November 20th for judgement, and even refused to take concluding addresses from both the prosecution and defense.

Always get your facts right, and don't mislead the public.

izombie:
Just imagine. If this really happened in court then naija legal system is a joke. How can you charge someone with a crime that does not exist in the law of your country?
Just watch how they will rush now to amend the charge. Kanu's crime was trying to break up their money pot called nigeria. Tufia

They can't even amend it anymore because they have closed their case,.. otilo for the government. They have no case against him.

Putindbutt:
So you admit that you committed the crime but only that it was committed in Kenya?.Lol.
No matter which country in the world you hide yourself committing terror acts against the US or Isreal, they will go into that country and nuke you into pieces. They won't even waste their resources bringing you back home for prosecution. This Kuje lord should be very grateful that Nigeria is even giving him attention in court. I blame Buhari for this, he should have gone the US and Isreal's way of dealing with terrorists.

If not that your parents could not afford quality education for you, you would known the meaning of what kanu said in that place you quoted .....

But let me educate you for free, the word alleged means so to say, in essence, since the government claimed he committed those offenses in Kenya, they should have either tied him in Kenya or get permission from a keyan court to try him in Nigeria or anywhere else...but your useless government did not follow the rule of law..kanu is actually teaching your Yoruba quota system so called Senior advocates of Nigeria what the law says. And it is quite a big shame on you guys.

Las Las, Nnamdi kanu is a nice man who just wouldn't tolerate the evil being done to Biafrans in Nigeria. If Nigerian was working properly and for everyone, he wouldn't be agitating.

The man has a golden heart for the good of everyone in the society.
