If we talk now, monerozi and Amoto will say because we live down south we cannot speak on the happenings in the north better than those of them resident in the north. This is a list of 102 communities that were completely sacked,annexed and renamed by the Fulani Jihadist militia. If you ask them to provide similar list showing the Fulani Jihadists being targeted for extinction like this, na that time dem go remember silence is golden.

To think Tinubu wanted to invade Niger ( a sovereign nation) when he was barely 3 months in office simply beavuse there was regime change in the country. The people talking about sovereignty today supported that move back then and were arguing Nigeria has a role to play as the African big brother and Balablu being ECOWAS chairman. Today America is saying fix the incessant killings of christians by Fulani Jihadists in your country or we come do it for you and suddenly they all remember Nigeria is a sovereign nation which America has no right to poke nose into it's internal affairs. The hypocrisy stinks! 🤮

Sportsweb:Can you imagine? One can make some really interesting deductions just from this Buhari's tweets alone. 1. Apparently there are Christians and Muslims in this Yelwa Gindi Akwati village. At least for the village to have an imam and a mosque, then it's apparent there is a considerable number of Muslims in the village. 2. The Fulani Jihadist went about killing Christians in the village in 2018 and that particular attack led to death of 80 Christians. 3. The Imam the reduced the number of christians that could have been killed in that attack by 262. He had to plead with the Jihadist to spare the 262 Christians he shielded by offering to exchange his own life for theirs. 4. For some reasons the assailants the retreated and the Imam was able to save 262 Christians that could've ended up like the other 80 that were slained in that June 2018 attacks. 5. The fact that the humanitarian efforts of the Imam drew both national and international recognition did in fact confirm the accusations of Christian genocide in Nigeria ( The northern part of the country precisely ). Or how would anyone describe a situation that had 80 Christians killed and 262 more saved by sheer bravery of an 83 year old Imam who was willing to lay down his life for them to live? There are no contradictions here. There are Muslims in that same town and the Jihadists never went for their lives but rather the Christians whom they targeted for wiping out. We may not support America's proposed military intervention, but don't let anybody gaslight you that there's no genocide in Nigeria. The people who are parroting that narrative have clearly sold their heart long time ago or either dtached from the reality of others since they don't have any relative that has been a victim yet.

TemporaryHansel:Elder, no be everything be politics na! Haba! If Atiku and Obi put mouth and FG comes for them, matters will escalate and the US probably comes in gun-a-blazing like Trump is suggesting; it is the same APC supporters and fellow Nigerians that will place all blame on them. Let Tinubu and his APC goons sort themselves with the Americans abeg. The opposition have done their jobs by calling out the incessant killings and insecurity challenges under Tinubu out ( Although your principal was cowardly enough to repent of himself after initially speaking against Deborah's murder). This is not the time to play any yeye opposition politics of miliking any yeye situation dry. Doing that is not what will make Tinubu lose reelection abeg. |
This was about 3 years ago in the run up to the 2023 presidential elections. 👀

A picture that depicts the level of confidence an average Nigerian has in the current government's competence in keeping them safe.

swiz123:Agreed 100%. However, someone like DJ chicken should've had his drivers license suspended a long time ago and anytime he's caught driving law enforcement should arrest him. The number of times DJ chicken has hit other people's vehicle or bike men ehn.... I think he probably drives under influence most times sef. |
Emaprince:It's disturbing when you see tweets of ex soldiers alleging they were punished too many Boko Haram terrorists. Then just last Sahara reporters was breaking the news that some soldiers are actually not happy working with ex boko haram members drafted into the army. Nigerian goveenment needs to undo some of these things and give the impression the state is not in bed with these terrorists. Tinubu just needs to wake up and do away with some of the unreasonable legacies of the Buhari's government he has been letting slide for the past 2 years. They should also do away with the narrative of downplaying terrorism as mere "farmer-herders clash". Like how can they continue to claim.it is farmer-herders clash and you see assault rifles and RPGs with only the herders. We've never seen any picture or video of farmers going about with such sophisticated weapons. |
LordAdam16:I agree with you that something needs to give. Could you imagine that rehabilitation of Boko Haram is the 7th most expensive capital project in the Borno state government's budget? How does a state continue to live like that? It just looks as if their governors are elected to enable boko haram keeps getting access to state budget. Then we have the shiiit show going on in the places Like Zamfara, Sokoto, etc where so called bandits come to town with RPGs for "peace talks", weddings and collection of levies & taxes. The kids gloves being used to handle the matter just needs to stop and arewa just need to allow things done the proper way instead of being sentimentally attached to those terrorists as their "brothers".

OkpaNsukkaisBae:Make dem calm down small. Tinubu and his people will start taking actions. The threat of stopping aids is enough to make them sit right. |
liveLongNprospa:APC actually need to call their data boys to order. Some of them have been moving mad since Trump's designation post yesterday. Their principal should call them to order ; saying " f*ck Peter Obi" or "F*ck Atiku" is not the same thing as "F*ck Donald Trump" or " To hell with a trump and his America " Son of those guys are unhinged, I even saw one that listed Trump,FBI, CIA, etc and said 4ck u to all of them.

Ellexy:Department of war keh? 🤷♂️ |
afrodoc2:They carefully chose a charge that would be easy to leave them off the hook. They probably didn't want to prosecute them at all going by the body language of Tambuwal the governor and the sultan. Person wey carry matches face camera where they set ablaze a fellow student, Nigeria police charge am with criminal conspiracy and inciting public disturbance. The attention is in in the details. Like a lot of people didn't pay attetion to the full details of that Deborah's murder. They charged the murders for a flimsy bailable crime, then police refused to present evidence in court to prosecute the accused murderers. How does one boldly say the state is not complicit in some of these incidents? |
izzou:The fact that she didn't even commit the blasphemy they accused her of is even annoying. In fact, most of the people they've murdered for the phantom blasphemy crime didng actually commit any crime. And then we had senior Muslim lawyers going to stand for the accused in court. We have the police prosecutor shying away from court sittings to present evidence and the state government nit mounting pressure on the police to have justice served. They all made it seem like those guys didn't actually commit any crime snuffing life out of her because to them indeed she deserves to kpai. Then we have a national figure like Atiku condemning and deleting his condemnation tweet about the incident. Omo! |
With the way Federal government is reacting to t Trump's position on this genocide matter, I won't be surprised if FG goes all out to enforce censorship of media reportings of insecurity issues going forward. They may soon forbid media houses from dwelling much on religion/ethnicity of victims and ethnicity of perpetrators of these terror attacks going forward. I won't put it past them that they will rather be furious with people reporting these incidents than putting boots on the ground to actually go after the perpetrators of terror attacks and bring them to book. The only way to actually have majority of Nigerians on your side is to really show results. Show you are doing enough to deal with the terrorists. Nobody will see you absorbing "repentant terrorists" into the army and take you serious.(these are terrorists who have been bombing churches and sacking entire communities as far back as 2013) Nobody will see that the killers of Deborah have not been convicted 3 years after and take you serious. In fact, the FG (Nigeria police) literally allowed the suspects arrested for Deborah's murder to walk free because they refused to appear in court on various occasion forcing the magistrate to throw out the case. How will your own citizens know this and you expect them to side with you?

TemporaryHansel:Nothing concern me with all these ones jare. Na people wey dey watch their video all the nonsense he's talking really concern. |
TrebleChamp:https://www.vanguardngr.com/2025/10/bandits-slay-pastor-abduct-20-worshippers-in-kaduna-community/amp/ This happened 4 days ago and was reported yesterday by Punch newspaper. The thing is you can't beat a child and tell that child not to cry. If a group of people keep getting attacked over and over again, it will be hard for anyone to convince them they are not being targeted for extinction. Anybody being sincere will acknowledge the fact that the Nigerian government over time has not done enough to protect minority groups (particularly Christians and non Fulanis) in the northern part of the country.

iamoyindamola:Embassy staff and Janitor báwo? An Ambassador is literally the representative of Nigeria's president in a foreign country na; whatever they are communicating is assumed to be the mind of the president of the country they represent. In April the minister for foreign affairs claimed the reasons for delay in appointments was because Tinubu was paying more attention to domestic matters and also financial constraints https://www.premiumtimesng.com/news/headlines/788532-exclusive-why-tinubu-hasnt-appointed-ambassadors-foreign-minister.html One would've thought that since the presidency has been releasing glamorous benefits of the fuel subsidy removal, the funds they allegedly saved from that decision would've made it easy for them to appoint ambassadors and not give the financial constraint excuse as reason for not appointing ambassadors yet. But what do I know? 🤷♂️ Maybe we only removed subsidy to fund the lifestyle of local politicians. |
25 months counting and Nigeria still doesn't have top diplomats stationed in countries across the world serving as ambassadors to push interests of the country and anticipate key foreign policy changes by host nations. 🤷♂️
|
Roland17:In all of these, we still don't have ambassadors representing the interest of Nigeria in almost all the countries of the world. We've not had them since Bola took over. I don't know if they think about these things and have deeper look at the optics. |
https://www.1914reader.com/p/the-king-of-food This is a long read on Dangote & the 15% petrol tariff ; it is worth your time. |
raumdeuter:Well, I don't know much about her case Sha. I just felt the need to point out she's not paying for legal fees like most people would assume. I saw Inibehe mentioned it earlier this week, that was how I even know the case is still on. |
semid4lyfe:I think long years of military rule may have influenced this tradition in the Nigerian military. Also the fact the level of distrust at the topmost level of power in this country is high. I think that influenced the tradition of presidents/commander-on-chief sacking service chiefs they meet in office only to appoint theirs (Irrespective of whether the outgoing military service chiefs still have 10 years to retirement). They believe whomever they appoint themselves will be 100% loyal to them and will quash any overly ambitious officer that may want to cut short the service chief's deserved elevation. For example we saw Buhari extending the tenure of Buratai beyond his retirement age for reasons best known to him. This past week we saw Tinubu sacking the CDS that is just 2 years old in office and still have years to retirement.I know they both gave varying reasons for their actions (which we may agree with or disagree with), but I'm just pointing out inconsistencies in the whole appointment and retirement of service chiefs. In all, it is unfair on senior officers who are forced into early retirement because a president decides to elevate their juniors ; but If you ask me I would say they know what they signed up for. Even in the military they don't play by the general rules of fairness and justice which we civilians are expected to live by. |
raumdeuter:Inibehe Effiong's chambers is handling the case pro bono |
semid4lyfe:That's why most of the senior officers made GOC's, Director of military finance, commander in charge of army property, Theatre commanders, etc always end up being corrupt. They divert as much funds as they can stash away for their possible early retirement. Remember one time a particular senior officer diverted huge sums of money only for the orderlies working for him to steal same money from him. I think he was court martialled eventually. |
odizeey:Wow! Isn't it not more economical to sub DSTV sef now that a match is now ₦500? Or better still just buy data and stream on phone sef. |
swiz123:Well, I don't know how much they watch match now in viewing centers but I know most bars don't sell bottle water below N500. |
swiz123:After each match, I will go outside to discuss and analyze the outcome of the match with other fans before the next match commences. |
odizeey:Make I kill myself because 11 billionaires refuse to play ball inside the net abi ? ![]() But on a serious note, while growing up I have always suffered backpain and sometimes stiff neck from watching match in view centers on those long benches. Any kind of comfort that will free of that kind stress, I will take it. |
