In this era of herdsmen and other criminal elements they are bringing in toll gates. Those will be prime targets for the kidnappers

Despite all this, you will not here a single word from the president. Buhari is a complete and total failure. Nigeria has simply never had it this bad. I can only pray the same divine intervention that took Abacha away can be repeated.

How do we know for certain it was herdsmen? In any event people need to start taking their own security measures as the govt clearly cant protect them. The big problem at the moment is only the criminals have guns. That needs to change

For those goats that don't know anything about this crisis but want to spew trash behind their keyboard!!

Tangale people are killing each other over religion!!

This has nothing to do with Hausa or fulani.

Billiri is a local government in Gombe that is dominated by a tribe called tangale!!

Tangale people have over 60% of Christians and over 40% muslims... The Christian tangales are the majority in their one and only local government... Billiri!

Because the governor chose a Muslim king to secede the throne!!

The Christian tangale started attacking the Muslim tangale!!

Killing and burning their mosque... Because the governor wants to enthrone a tangale Muslim!!

This fight is all about a tribe called tangale killing each other over religion.

Las las a Muslim king will emerge as the king of Tangale.

And they will continue Killing each other over nonsense!!

That's Africans for you!!

The black man is naturally hypocritically wicked and Barbaric!!

He can kill for religion, tribe, land, woman, infact a black man can distroy his own family because of his pre-existing beliefs!

A black man can never fight for development, nature or humanity... But he can go as far as killing his fellow blacks for identity!!

And we'll hypocritically be crying Racism!!

A black man just want nothing than to win over his fellow black and chest beat about it!! Just like Gorillas and chimpanzees.

We are being threatened by self consuming hate!!

Sadly this is just the beginning... Cos even education can't help the mind of black people!

You have said it all. The mindset of the blackman is focused on destruction never on development and progress

Good logic, but isn't it time guys like you also put more pressure on Igbo governors and senators to cooperate and work with SW governors and senators to ensure the nation is restructured?
Restructuring will allow for the right security apparatus to be put in place in each region, and this will easily check these Fulani terrorism.
The present system allows too much power in Abuja, and the Fulani rulers are abusing this powers to terrorise the other tribes.
If Southern elites and political leaders are sincere and work together on restructuring, Nigeria's problems will be easily solved.
The schism created by Tinubu can be easily done away with if southern leaders cooperate.

A very sensible post. It's time SW , SS and SE youths got together to demand restructuring or no election in 2023. All these calls for SE president or SW president are nonsense. As long as the current structure is in place, the North will continue to lord it over the South. In a proper resstructed federation it will matter less where the president is from.

Lawn was Tinubu's candidate for Senate president. I hope you can all see what the myopic selfishness of the frog eyed one has caused. He backed incompetent, northern fanatics into key positions, for his own selfish ends.

Tinubu is shacking already. He knows if GEJ runs the whole north will support him as they know it's only for 1 term. Plus the SS he will certainly win. I hope he runs just to pay Tinubu back for 2015.

The SW destroyed southern unity in 2015 when they combined with the north to remove a southern president. It is the height of hypocrisy for a SW leader to now be calling for unity.

Why not? As long as we restructure first to reduce the power at the centre and devolve more power to the states . I've got no problem with Niger, Benin and the English speaking part of Cameroon joining Nigeria

I see nothing wrong at all with the Saduana's views. He was simply looking out for his people's interests. It's a big shame that today's crop of southern rulers will sell out their people for crumbs

Ortom, Are you not part of the 'Northern Governors Forum'? Why? Benue is not part of the Caliphate is it not time Benue withdrew from NGF?

This is a good development. The various southern groups should start to share intelligence and tactical information. This is a joint struggle.

The challenge with a monopolistic capitalist like Dangote in a poor country like Nigeria is that the country will be at his mercy when critical economic structures are under his umbrella. He technically becomes above the law in many regards knowing that a squabble or friction with Dangote will spell economic doom for the government of the day..in that regard, he enjoys special economic privileges among his contemporaries or within the business sphere. Typical example is Carlos slim of Mexico

On the other hand, in a rich countries like the US, UK etc....There’s an almost equal level playing ground and government subsidies cut across all players in the business sphere. Most importantly, the players are not above the law and could be summoned at any point they find deviation or sabotage to national interest like they summoned bill gate some years back, mark zuck recently and many more.

While everything you have said is correct, we need to start somewhere. If the Dangote refinery succeeds, there will be massive knock on effects for other sectors like agric and industry. As the wider economy grows the impacts of his monopoly will slowly start to fade. Right now half bread is better than none.

At the end of the day Tinubu will campaign like any other candidate. He has no devine right to rule Nigeria. If it is destiny to be president then no man born of woman can stop him. If it is not his destiny then all the traditional rulers on this planet can never make it happen. Tinubu's date with his destiny draws near.

With Dangote and Rabiu needing to recoup their investments, you can be sure renewable energy (Solar, wind power, biomass) and electric cars will not be hitting Nigerian in a big way anytime soon

When Buhari does well I will praise him. No nation can develop without a well laid out national rail network. The govt is making good strides on this front.

Lalong is an idiot. Is his state not one of the victims of Fulani agression? I dont understand these north central people

gregyboy:
That shouldn't concern you bro, neither are you the Portuguese that brought the Christianity or a benin man to have a say On the church


You're just one of the conquered people who her ancestor abandon their religion for that of the
Whitemans

Stop feeling like you have some form of entitlement to Christianity

You are a true African. Well done

If dialogue can bring genuine peace then it should be encouraged. No society can develop without peace. While the dialogue is ongoing in the North, we in the South must urgently ramp up our defence. Across the South we must start to coordinate local defence units. The Army and police can no longer be realied on, so we must take on the task of defending our land and lives. Our thinking now needs to be based on the maxim of 'Hope for peace, ready for war'

Arewa1stSon:
the north feeds you....

No region in Nigeria can survive today whitout the north!!

We feed you and your families!!

We give beans!!

We give you meat!!

We give you rice!!

We give you tomatoes!!

We give you peeper!

We give you soya beans

We give you Groundnuts!!

We give you all sort of fruits!!

We give you that goat you enjoy as nkwobi!!

We give you raw materials!!

At the end you call me a Parasite!!

I just can't wait to mount into the corridor of power!!

We have to change alot of things...

Our fathers really failed the north!!

Imagine a southerner calling me... a Diallo who owns thousands of cows that each cost not less than 300k a parasite!!

The current centralized system of governance has impacted all parts of the nation. If we go back to a regional model, with each region being responsible for generating revenue, we would see all the regions developing their internal economies, which will be a good thing for all in the long run

Its very terrible that most youths can't read and understand these days. I believe most comments on this topic are made out of prejudice. The message is as clear as sunlight, the south eastern region needs to be given the presidential slot and not any other region. After all, other regions in the south has held the position of the president. Now because of presidential ambition a lot of confused people will start claiming Igbo, but when the chips are down they will reject being Igbo. We play a very mischievous, petty, wicked and winner take it all politics in this country. Always wanting to oppress the other person. That's why we end up electing criminal elements into position of power just to harm the other tribe, Nigerians really need to grow up. Trolling online no be work!

Respectfully disagree. Nobody gave the SW the slot in 1999. Alex Ekueme, battled for the PDP nomination with Obasanjo. The presidency was zoned to the South in 1999 to placate over June 12. That was a one off. The presidency was also never zoned to the SS, it was fate that allowed GEJ emerge. By the logic of your argument the NE and NC also have a claim in 2023.

It is better to keep quiet and let people think you are an idiot, than to open your mouth and remove all doubt. In Europe, the US, South America, there is abundance of beef, milk and dairy products, yet you dont see cows on the road. They are all reared in ranches and farms. These nations export beef products all over the world.
The Fulani refuse to develop. In 2021 they still want to be using the same nomadic practices of 1821, regardless of the associated problems. This senator shows the regressive mindset that holds society back from developing.

Mohammed life style and doctrine is affecting our world

What are you talking about? Was polygamy not part and parcel of African traditions before the white man and Arabs came with their religions?

benji93:
You know Wetin that woman Don do for Atiku?All those things wey dem say she do may actually be True. Maybe Atiku Don tell am for room say na you be my last and special wife.

You talk true Jor. Na only Jenny know why the thing dey pain am like this

Na wa for women sha. You came as wife number 3, what makes you think you are so special that there will not be a wife no 4 or even 5? Is your pussy made of velvet and lined with gold? I beg make we hear word. You are in a polygamous marriage, deal with it.

I don't like Tinubu, however it seems clear that the recent rise in tensions between Fulani and Yoruba is being used to target his political ambitions. What a shame!

Nobody is fighting anybody. It is easy to call for war on the internet, harder to do in reality. Let's all learn to live together and resolve our differences peacefully.

On the outside Buhari has aged better. The problem is Buhari likely has some form of dementia which has reduced his ability to communicate intelligently. I don't mean this as an insult. We will all grow old and deal with the challenges of ageing.

Imagine coming home to tell your wife, you have been made Ambassador to Gabon, while her friends husband has been made Ambassador to France!

Make sure you encourage your sons to start fights in school. In fact if your son is not suspended every term for fighting, you should cane him.

Southern President, Northern president, same outcomes: No jobs for graduates, No electricity, poor roads, poor healthcare.
Rather than Southern president or Northern president, how about trying competent president in 2023?
