My point is...maybe your lecturers lied to you.

igbodefender:
Perhaps, you are putting words into the mouth of the dead. Coups are painful for everyone.

igbodefender:
But the coupists said they wanted to make Awolowo Prime Minister.

bakynes:
There is nothing anybody can say to change the fact it was an Igbo coup, all indices is pointing towards that.

The questions are why was the Eastern region not under siege like the Northern and western region?

The plan of the coup plotters was to eliminate all Political and Senior military leaders in each region.

The Northern and Western leaders were eliminated except the east. This raises suspicion

Why were the Igbos mocking the death of Sir Ahmadu Bello in the North?.

igbodefender:
Most of the officers in the army then were Igbos. That is why it looks like an Igbo coup. But it was never an Igbo coup. Stop the cheap blackmail.

The North now has most of the officers in the army, but the coups after the July 1966 coup were not called Northern coups because the North did not sit down and decide to plot coup. So why are the Igbos always attacked over January 1966 instead of the political class that through their violence and instability brought the military into politics?

My brother just imagine oooooo
Laying claim to the rich and fertile benue valley.
This fulani people are so bold.

CharlotteFlair:
Check yourself before you wreck yourself! Crying more than the bereaved is suspicious. Omenkalives is on this thread but he hardly paid attention to matter under review. So what's your own really? What did you do in kwara when Fulanis not only overran your land and took your wives, they are still the ruling class. Hypocrisy!

Kicks against Benue anti-open grazing law
Calls for establishment of grazing reserve commission
Cattle breeders association under the aegis of Miyetti Allah Kautal Hore on Tuesday kicked against anti-open grazing legislation enacted by the Benue State government.

The group argued that they were original inhabitants of Benue valley in the State, thus the lingering crisis was a struggle for the state’s natural resources.
The National Secretary, Miyetti Allah Kautal Hore, Engr. Saleh Alhassan said during a world press conference in Abuja that it was inappropriate to treat members of the association as outcasts, adding that the Economic Community of West African States (ECOWAS) protocol even allows the Fulani community free movement into and across the country.

The Benue State Governor, Samuel Otom recently passed the anti-open rearing and grazing bill into law.
Alhassan said: “We are ever ready. We are peaceful people. What we don’t accept is for people not to welcome us and want to annihilate us. We will not accept that.

We know our history. We know our root. If you see us in the bushes, don’t think we don’t have our history and particularly in the Benue. We are challenging the Tiv people. We were there in the Benue valley before them…before they moved from Congo and settled in Cross River and later moved to the Benue valley. So they met the pastoralist there. This is a struggle for natural resources. You cannot beat us and say we should not cry, No. Even God will not be happy with that.
However, he said the nation should acknowledge the existence of pastoral farmers and provide grazing reserves to develop new breed of cattle and embrace modern technology.

“The Nigerian state must recognise that the Fulani pastoralist exists and as a socio-cultural group that has a right to the shared resources. We must be allocated land to do our cattle grazing, which systematically we can settle our families, change the breed of cattle they need and improve on the technology of cattle rearing,” he added.

Speaking on ways to end the communal clashes, he stressed that the association was partnering on experimental ranching and nomadism with the Federal Ministry of Agriculture and Rural Development, as part of gestures to provide lasting solution to the crisis.
In his remark, President of the socio-cultural association, Alh. Abdullahi Bello, described the enactment as wicked, obnoxious and repressive.
He said it was wicked to criminalise their means of survival and freedoms.

However, Bello urged the National Assembly to intervene on the issue, stressing that inter-state movement of pastoralists is synonymous to inter-state commerce.
Our association view the current attempt by the Benue State government to criminalise our means of economic livelihood of cattle rearing through the enactment of an obnoxious anti-open grazing law as the most wicked act any government can do to us and our economic interest.
“We want to state here that we reject that repressive and oppressive law and will deploy all the necessary legal means as enshrined in the constitution to challenge it,” he added.
The association vowed to mobilise herdsmen in the country to resist the law as it was a deliberate attempt to enslave their members,”through the law.

and you get deported a lot...

mtis:
but they already done it with the oil thingy...

ApolitiCal:
Your illustrations are illogical and don't apply here. Any government that allows over 200 persons to be kidnapped by a group of people or party as alleged, for their own selfish interest is a total failure

labi1977:
I was shocked to hear then confirm gtb is changing at 378/$ black market rate now !! Most other banks r doing similar. How can this b legal ?

malton:
I think you're underestimating how far the fulani man is willing to go to ensure that the whole of Nigeria is a conquered territory.

This is a grand scheme that precedes Buhari and shall outlive him. The whole time while GEJ was president, AK47s were being brandished in the middle belt, especially in Plateau and Southern Kaduna. People down South turned a blind eye then because they weren't affected directly. They now feel the heat only because it has arrived their doorsteps.

So oga o, they may be feeling quite on top with their man as the number one guy, but their crime of utmost savagery did not start with the Buhari presidency.

They had been brutal long before he became president. You're only just knowing it.

Delta and Enugu I don't know but Taraba, Kwara am 100% sure, from Wukari to Jalingo is full of abadon houses and built building from herdsmen attack as of 2014 till date.

Ogalanyachieze:
Did you even read the post? It smells of north north and north. It has no nigerian state outlook as you try to depict. They were only after north not about nigeria. And the same guy they accuse carried the north along while he abandoned his own zone. I remember when an attack on boko haram was an attack against the north and the man simply left attacking boko haram so he wont attack the beloved north. Why do these elders now turn around to accuse him of abandoning north to thier fate meanwhile its buhari, junaid mohd and ango abdulahi dat made him take that stance

baylord101:
Herdsmen have been turning my people here in Benue state homeless right from 1999, the attacks has reduce compare to before but the media noise is louder than before.

nellyelitz:
Femi Adesina was asked why the government prevented the media from interviewing any of the released chibok girls and he said is because of security purposes and again he was asked why the government said that they will keep the girls in a safe house in Abuja, instead of releasing them to their parents, Femi again said for security reasons. Femi was also asked how many terrorists was released in place of this girls and he said that he can't say anything about that for security reasons. This same Femi Adesina was asked when will his government allow journalist to interview any of the girls and he said not soon because of security reasons. The interviewer also ask Femi if any of the girls knows the location on which they were held and he said that for security reasons, he can't say that and my question is why are you announcing to the world that some girls was released if you can't give details of how they were released and allow journalists to interview them?

Waoh! Just little mistakes... Why should someone send his/her ID just because of a single transaction.. Phone number should be verified and you should always quote yourself here on nairaland before engaging in deals.

TonyeBarcanista:
The Presidency showed him the way out, the Presidency still countered the action of the Presidency. Please , Who is the Presidency?

ibibiofirstlady:
Mbok, it is Secretary to the Government of the Federation of SGF and not Sec-Gen. Thanks

dodelight:
Not far from truth, jare. I really wish we have a president who can actually bark and bite without being forced to do so. What we have is just a painting of a scary bulldog.
