They know what they are doing, when Deborah was killed, the silence from their camp was as chilly as a graveyard's.

The indoctrination is deep, it's up to every tribe to protect their cultural identity, heritage and land/forest space... those people only care about their religion.

Onlinetutor7:
Ask them what Boko Haram is fighting for if not for the Islamization of Nigeria, none of the can answer.

They are using deceit, na their way, they know what they are doing.

When Deborah died, no condemnation from any of their religious leaders. That was a litmus test.

Religion has made a lot mad

Factcheck0001:
those killing Christians in d south east n locking them in at will,

What religion do they practice?

Most of you argue so unintelligently.

Bokoharam and iswap, fulani herdsmen are fighting religious war on non muslims, bokoharam in itself abhors anything non muslim, so does iswap, so does fulani herdsmen, this in itself is persecution. It is different from ipob who are fighting for biafra, please try to sound intelligent, I know most of you are not smart by default.

Hypocrites any small thing dem shout...how much is north contributing to Nigeria?

Who have the oil?

Who have the highest VAT?

If north had all these things they would never agree to share with southern Nigeria the way we share with them.

Full resources control now.

Originalsly:
Is it Christians only are killed daily? Are more Christians killed than Muslims daily? So what are you saying? The Bishop went to the US to report killings of Christians ... who he went to report to? ..why not go to the. Vatican? Has the Pope made any statement about the killing of his family? Is the Pope concerned about what happens to his people in Africa? Catholics in Africa need to wake up

Who is doing the killings?

Bokoharam, bandits, herdsmen, iswap...who are these people, what religion do they proffess?

Recognising the right to self defence, state police, giving automatic weapons to vigilantes verified and trained/controlled by the state government, will help Nigeria defeat these terrorists, kidnapping demons.

Sharia law in a secular nation is persecution if Christians

Blasphemy laws which have caused mobs to kill Deborah and others in the north is persecution

Bokoharam being against non muslims, and want to create sharia in the north, bokoharam have attacked churches repeatedly, specifically, they have stated they don't want to see non muslims in north, negotiating with bokoharam and releasing them is persecution of those Christians killed in churches in Ondo State, Jos, plateau etc.

Repeated herdsmen attack on benue, continuous killing, over 10 consecutive times, communities razed, women raped, children killed, while we watched like a movie, is genocidal.

It is important we push this to the front page, let us build our security by empowering our people the right to defend themselves.

I read of the farmer sentenced to death because he was trying to defend himself, that a judge sentenced to prison for killing a herder who attacked him, and I was worried...

What does this do to the minds and thinking of the attacker, bandit, terrorists etc, if they think that people can not protect themselves when they attack, won't this embolden the killers, terrorists and bandits?

It is important that the Nigerian senate create a law to recognise Self defence, under no trespassing and stand your ground clauses.

A man should have the right to preserve his life, preservation of life is one of the human rights, recognised in all laws across the world.

If we want to defeat these bandits, terrorists and kidnappers, we must allow Nigerians the freedom to defend himself, even if the terrorists dies, the citizen should not go through the stress of police interrogation etc...we should be working for the good people not the demons.

It is important that the self defence law be created for more national security, as it will embolden the good people and discourage the terrorists, kidnappers, bandits and armed robbers. Vigilantes will also be emboldened to do their jobs more effectively.

We must save the lives of the legitimate good citizens, we must do everything possible to discourage terrorists and demons by giving more leverage to the people.

JAMB should be disbanded, that institution is a waste.

TONYE001:
True.

But, uhhhhh, you also know that while Mr. A considers Mr. B a "bad mind", Mr. C may also be considering Mr. A a "bad mind" too.

So, no one is innocent.

I like to compare this analogy with people praying for their enemies to fall and die. I often ask if they know that they just may be another person's enemy, and that person may be in church at the same time praying for their enemies to fall and die.

Thankfully, the wisdom of God Almighty is far above man's comprehension....no enemy dey fall and die, we just end up wasting our time shouting and sweating.

I don't pray for enemies to fall and die, I avoid, blacklist and never show them love...am not religious fanatic, am a realist.

People's behaviour can make you avoid, detest, and protect yourselves from them, it's normal to avoid and distance yourself from bad minds and evil people.

Avoid kids that are not yours.

Anyone that kills deliberately, unless it's self defence deserves to die.

Fight against herdsmen, terrorists and kidnappers, prostitutes don't kill no one.

These people just like to control human beings like say dem be robots

Omihanifa:
The market is getting saturated already. Everything is about to explode.

The brokers always stay in business, after explosion, buying and selling commences, never ends...what are the indices that makes you talk about explosion...I think you don't know what you are saying...the gap between property being built and those who need property is huge, hence builders will keep smiling to the bank, explosion happens when they are too many available properties and no occupants, this is not the case.

kettykin:
Very well, this is welcome as igbos are more than willing not just to leave Lagos but uproot anything yoruba in every inch of soil igbo is spoken from parts of edo state to parts of cross river

Edo and cross river are south south regions not southeast.

Sonofgod1990:
Her opueh don Dey scratch her

She need something strong to handle the opueh right now

Sorry madam
Your man will soon come back maybe another woman don corner ya husband

Nairaland politics and crime needs an IQ test.

Governors of southwest please respond to this good woman, not all women will go this far for their husbands. Nairalanders share this everywhere.

Islamic jihadists make Africa waste trillions yearly, it's a shame.

Exactly!!
I'm amazed Nigerians are so ignorant of the issues around forex. It seems we just want to blame anyone we can lay our hands on when things go awry not realising the facts that they are simply business people and not responsible for the corruption in the system. There are BDCs in almost all countries of the world. How come it's in our case they become a criminal enterprise? BDCs are registered and licensed by the CBN and they have existed since the 70s.
The round-tripping that a lot of folks are wrongly blaming them for was not done by them. It was done by corrupt politicians and banks. During that period, the CBN was not even selling dollars directly to the BDCs like we have now. It was politicians and banks that were getting free dollars from CBN and selling it for a premium to the BDCs. The same politicians when it's time to launder funds still go to the BDCs to buy dollars that leave no trails. The politicians are still sitting pretty in their offices till today and even converging into a single party to better share the booty. The banks are today declaring massive profits. But it's the BDCs that some ignorant folks want to heap all their frustrations on. Same thing happened during the naira scarcity. POS were selling N10,000 for as high as 3000. People left the banks with their empty ATMs and CBN that made a mess of naira swap along with their political elites that were mopping up naira to vent on POS operators as if they are the problem. That's why we keep recycling criminals into political office and canonising them as saints.
The CBN in a bid to merge rates started selling forex to BDCs last year. Today, BDCs are complaining of shortage in supply but a lot of folks have lost track of the main body of the message and are focused on other things that shouldn't be their problem. When demand rises in the black market and the parallel rates start to diverge, you'll be at the receiving end and the CBN will either devalue the naira further or restrict access again. Then you'll be back to square one.
Nigerians are poor students of history and simply don't learn

Na blog gossip and propaganda full their heads, a direction-less people who are not objective but always moved by propaganda, tribalism, nepotism and bigotry will continue to move in circles, we the objective truthful ones will progress and move forward.

False. Ijaws were one of the first groups in Nigeria, Igbos were one of the earliest civilizations, older than the Benin Kingdom. The Benin kingdom became one of the most powerful and popular

No written records of Igbos being older, Onitsha was founded by Benin people, Can you tell me any achievement of the Igbo tribe 1000years ago?

Portuguese earliest world power before Britain came to see the Benin not Igbos, the Benin moat, Benin walls are historical architectural greats in history over the world, the waters that stretched across the west African water space is called Bight of Benin, because the Benin Kingdom were the ones that traded international among tribes.
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bight_of_Benin

Guinness Nigeria have the Benin walls as one of its top world wonders, built over 2000 years ago, then most tribes were still naked running around the bushes.

"In 1974, the Guinness Book of World Records recognised the walls of Benin City as the world's second-largest man-made structure by length, following China's Great Wall. The series of earthen ramparts was acclaimed as the most extensive earthwork ever constructed"

Of course every scholar knows Ijaw is arguably the earliest tribe in Nigeria,but I didn't say Benin empire was the first tribe, I said it was the first tribe that built a strong, safe, economically viable state, secure, evidence are in the structures still existing today, not myths or legends.

The Portuguese were the ones that wrote about its greatness first, it is a true report read history.
https://smarthistory.org/benin-and-the-portuguese/

Benin Ivory and bronze works are the most sought after in the world, the British display them in their biggest museums.
https://www.britishmuseum.org/about-us/british-museum-story/contested-objects-collection/benin-bronzes

Stick to the topic, nobody wants you in Benin, you people were the ones confusing yourselves, writing about it online, Benin people have never discussed this inconsequential topic...stop being mischievous.

You people are the ones arguing with yourselves, lol... nobody wants anybody, everybody wants more resources. This is a non issue. Benin people have never claimed anybody, they don't do that...the greatness of the empire is well recorded, the first and earliest civilisation and organised kingdom in Nigeria.

As a consumer Dangote's monopoly favor you, favors our economy. The world is run by monopoly, a few big corporations own most of the companies under holdings, most of you are ignorant...HSBC, Goldman Sachs control most of the world's hedge and investment holdings, Facebook and Microsoft now controls most of our communication systems. As long as capitalism exists, winner takes all, this world is run by a few 'winners'

Most of you using words like it's the first time you all heard it, monopoly in Dangote's case will be a blessing because he will refine Nigeria crude, refine the petrol, save us the need to buy dollars to import and export so we earn dollars, which will boost the naira.

Kukutente23:
You mean BDCs started to exist in Nigeria in 2017?
I'm impressed by your knowledge

You people are not objective, they are talking A you talking B, comprehension should not be this hard.

I love this. Buy Nigeria, use Nigerian products, boosts our production and export more.
