Thanks. |
Very true! Buhari should listen to this!! |
Good one from GEJ. The second 'Democratic' President after Yar Adua. The others are pure Dictators. |
Gunners really firing under Unai.... |

Someone hinted on this Forum a few days ago that Buhari will soon visit Turkey and meet with other Islamic leaders for a serious discussion on how best to spread Islam and Sharia. Let's watch and see if it is true. |
nkwuocha1:I agree with you completely! Knowing fully well that international awareness has been created on this issue of sponsored herdsmen killings, and with the pressure beginning to mount on their Patron as witnessed in the recent remarks from the US Government, the Fulanis decided to kill the cows just to evoke sympathy. Perhaps, their Controllers have directed that this be done so as to create a fake impression. In any case, death of terrorists and their cattle is good news to my ears. |
Festus Keyamo is a shameless lawyer. There is ethnic and religious cleansing going on in the Middle Belt. |
yazach:Yazach. In the final analysis, the British, NOT the Arabs colonized Nigeria. That is why English is the Official Language in all matters of learning and governance. Having Arabic inscriptions on our currency and military insignia is totally wrong. Like somebody stated earlier, we should desist from mixing religion with State matters. Nigeria have no official religion but we have official language. This is my point. |
yazach:Did I insult anybody here? |
yazach:Try to be civil like Gaddafithe2nd. He has posting his comments with lots of maturity. This is highly needed in intellectual discussion. |
Gaddafithe2nd:First of all, Northern Muslims were NOT the first literates in Nigeria! I reject this point. Which year did Arab scholars arrive Northern Nigeria? And please, English is the Official Language in Nigeria. This means it is the common denominator in all Official matters. Arabic should have no place in Federal Recruitment examinations. |
Gaddafithe2nd:So Northerners have Arabic as their official language while Southerners adopted English as their official language? Are you sure you are a Nigerian? |
Edu3Again:That Bill is dead on arrival! A Bill that seeks to contradict the Constitution is only fit for the dustbin. The Constitution is very clear on this. The same way Buhari used the Constitution in rejecting Senate's reordering of elections is the same way the Senate should use the Constitution in throwing out that evil Bill from Buhari. It is most irresponsible that Buhari does not deem it fit to enact a Bill that will stop Herdsmen killings across the country, but has rather proposed a Bill that will help him to 'legally' set up settlements for his kinsmen all over the country. This is a very wicked Bill! Instead of seeking to use the back door approach to create illegal settlements for Fulani herdsmen across Nigeria, Buhari should support all Legislations aimed at stopping open grazing. He should advise his kinsmen to embrace ranching which is global best practice of rearing livestock in the 21st Century. Buhari should preach Ranching rather than advocating for programs like Cattle Colony, Grazing Reserves, Grazing Routes and Cluster Settlements. These programs look more like desperate attempts to actualize some hidden agenda. Buhari should advise Fulani Herdsmen to shun open grazing. This system of rearing livestock is ancient, outdated, archaic, and environmentally devastating!!! Open grazing is solely responsible for the desert encroachment in the North of Nigeria. The herdsmen are now moving Southward to cause the same environmental damage through open grazing. They also want to use cattle as a secret cover to 'colonize' indigenous tribes and take over their ancestral lands. This is totally unacceptable!!! All States in the South of Nigeria should wake up and immediately enact Legislations banning Open Grazing, while encouraging Ranching as the only acceptable method of rearing livestock. This is not the time for Southern Governors to be playing political correctness seeking to please the Caliphate! Time is running out!!! |
HigherEd:Excellent analysis! Good job. |
ChidiAlaigbo:Apart from wickedness, another problem with folks like you is cowardice. If not, why would you hide behind an Igbo username? You are a typical Fulani man. Back to your comment. The activities of Fulani herdsmen is what is dividing this country. Mark my words. Either Nigeria will divide and you people will have your Arewa Republic where, killing and destruction will be legalised. Or a time shall come when Fulanis will beg to be accommodated. |
Correct!!! Human lives don't matter to this government!!! As far as Buhari is concerned, cows are more important than human beings. This is an aberration!! It is totally strange! |
I will personally not be surprised if, at the end of the day, Fulani receive compensation for the murders they have committed. |
Patience and Endurance should be her names. |
The desire to cheat is a very strong temptation. Self-control is the key of life. |
They did well. |
easyfem:That is exactly what Buhari is doing. When Benue people visited him in Abuja few days after the New Year killings, he shamelessly told them to "go and accommodate your fellow country men." When he visited Makurdi some few days ago, he said he don't understand why Benue is refusing to coexist with others. He has never hinted on the issue of ensuring justice for the people of Benue. It is so strange! |
No alternative! |
Living in the same country with people who are totally daft or people who can only boast of Islamic education is a very big disaster. How many soldiers were killed by NK and his group? The answer is none? It is on record that no single soldier not even a policeman was killed by the Biafra agitators. Yet, the old fool known as Alhaji Lai Mohammed was daily running his mouth describing IPOB as terrorists insisting that, they were worst than BH and Fulani herdsmen. Talk of verbal diarrhoea! May the souls of the slain soldiers rest in peace. The blood of all Nigerians, both civilians and military, killed by BH and Fulani terrorists will be on the head of Lai Mohammed. He is guilty. At the appropriate time, he will be held accountable. |
AnodaIT:Yeah, it is true there is a sizeable population of Hausa/Fulani in that town, but understand that, we have more population of Hausa/Fulani in Makurdi town than elsewhere in Benue State. There were unique Fulani settlements in different parts of Gboko Local Government Area. However, they were recognized for their actual status: settlers. At the heat of the killings in 2016, they were told to leave and they left. Now, back to Katsina Ala, their population is not so much as to accord them recognition in the Traditional and Political Administrations. Even though with a sizeable number, they are treated for their actual status as settlers. And they have never complained nor protested, why? Because they know the truth. In Makurdi, the Hausas have settled for many years. Yet, before they arrived, the Tiv people had settled there for many years. Please, understand that, the Hausas made several attempts to crown one of their own a king in Makurdi but failed on each occasion. The Fulanis came to join them much later on. The much recognition they have been given (to be honest) is that, they have a council ward in Makurdi. |
That is exactly what the useless Northern elements always have in mind whenever they talk about 'Northern Nigeria' or '19 Northern States' or 'monolithic North'. The Brits are responsible for the woes in this country, that is why they hardly comment or react on issues in this country. They conspired with the North. They placed Benue in the North for the reason of administrative convenience. Whereas, Benue cosmology is essentially South. There is no single Fulani Emir in the whole of Benue; the Muslim population in Benue is less than 2%; Hausa language is not common as only about 10% understand and speak the language; No single Local Government where Hausa or Fulani are in majority; And not even the position of Deputy Governor has been set aside for them, etc. We have virtually nothing in common with the North. Benue has never been a conquered territory of the blood sucking terrorists. The problem we have here in Benue State is lack of visionary leaders. Instead, we are cursed with so many cowards and fainthearted sycophants who are more than willing to remain in perpetual servitude to the Northern Oligarchy. It is painfully nauseating when you hear people like Paul Unongo and Senator Joseph Waku shouting on top of their voices, telling the whole world that Benue is Arewa while insulting others who are fighting to emancipate themselves from the evil grip of some backward goons. The two buffoons I have mentioned above plus one idiotic Abubakar Tsav a former commissioner of police in Lagos State, are the greatest ass-lickers to have ever lived on the surface of the earth. Their penchant to remain slaves of the Caliphate is disappointing. Nevertheless, we the enlightened and exposed youth of Benue have decided to not only challenge the evil of categorizing Benue as Arewa under a mischievous 'One North' tag; but also ensure that Benue is liberated from 'Northern Nigeria'. If the North want Nigeria to return to the former Regional Governments, they should openly take a decision in this regard. |
Herdsmen are terrorists. |
genghiskhan007:. Nobody is going to be deceived. Come 2019, we shall vote massively against terrorism. Never to be fooled again. They can arrest 100. It changes nothing. |
Jimoh Moshood. Your day is coming. |
