Politics › Re: Timi Frank To Tinubu: Your Silence Over Attacks Against Yorubas Worrisome by Deepthoughts: 3:36pm On Feb 15, 2021
Africafooty:
Political Activist, Timi Frank, has called on a former Governor Lagos State and national leader of the All Progressives Congress (APC), Asiwaju Bola Ahmed Tinubu, to speak up in defence of the Yoruba race now under fierce attacks by herdsmen, bandits and kidnappers.

This happened even as the former Deputy National Publicity Secretary of the APC, berated President Muhammadu Buhari and Tinubu, over the recent crisis in Oyo State as well as across the Southwest and other regions of Nigeria.

Frank, in a statement in Abuja, on Monday, also decried the spate of insecurity in the country, especially in the South West, saying that Buhari and Tinubu should be held responsible for the crises.

He urged the APC leader to break his silence and speak up against the attacks in his region, saying his continued silence does not portray him as a leader who has the interest of his people at heart.

He said: “The crisis in the South-West should be solely blamed on Tinubu who foisted Buhari on Nigerians and especially on the Southwest.

“How can Tinubu continue to keep mute over the attacks in Oyo state and other Southwest states?

“Tinubu is a leader of the Yorubas in Southwest. Asiwaju cannot be silent over matters involving threats to life, peace and security of his people. 

"His continued silence has become too loud, especially owing to the fact that he was the major influence and the reason the Yorubas voted massively for Buhari in 2015.

"Tinubu's silence shows he is only protecting his business interests in the South-West as well as protecting his political ambition.

“He does not want to shatter his relationship with Buhari which in turn, by his calculation, would attract the President's nod for him to have a shot at the presidency come 2023.

"But as a leader of the region, Tinubu should speak against the attacks against his people and not be driven by his selfish 2023 presidential ambition."

The Bayelsa-born activist added: “Nigeria is more divided under Buhari than it has ever been before. Buhari's government has polarised the country across religious and ethnic lines.

"This government is so clueless and incompetent that it recognises and shows a soft hand on terrorist groups like Boko Haram, killer herdsmen and bandits, but sadly mete out cruelty on innocent and patriotic Nigerians.

"Look at the number of security personnel it sent to wickedly dehumanise and arrest peaceful #EndsSARS protesters at the Lekki Tollgate in Lagos.

“Yet, the Buhari government can't send a similar proportion of law enforcement agencies after killer herdsmen. 

“Instead, the President is emboldening the terrorist groups with his direct and indirect support, even against the South-West region and the likes of Tinubu have kept silent while their people suffer."

Frank, however, urged all Nigerians and especially the leaders in the South-West to "unite and fight this common enemy."

He urged other regions to also join in the fight, warning that if the trend is allowed to fester, that sooner or later, the crisis of insecurity may grow out of proportion in every region of the country.

END

Comrade Timi Frank

This Gumi of a man is being clever by half contradicting himself,the bandits were initial victims but when they acquire weapons they rather join their enemies the rustlers to reign terror of the hapless innocent citizens,now they want to acquire air defense weapons to attack the military,does this explanation follow logic? there's something Gumi know that the rest of us certainly don't know n it's very dangerous.

Nigeria starting another problem,why not increase the federal police n reorganize it or approve state police n regulate them properly for effective results than coming up with this pretence that would likely fade out in the nearest future or even compound the security problems in the country, it's so amazing how every concept turns to something else once it get to Nigeria.

man, Tinubu should just forget about the presidency but just play along coolly with the powers that be else he would be completely ruined financially, economically n politically,he has been clean n clear,but he can take the risk if he is so desperate,time n results shall tell.

The crisis is coming up because in almost all the state chapters some strong men had produced fake n bogus registers they were using to manipulate party primaries like Tinubu in Lagos,the hausa/fulani Hawks in the party knew of it but kept mute while it serve them well,now that the tenure of buhari is coming to an end with the possibility of power shift down south they want to hijack the party structures to determine the course of the party decisions,persons like Tinubu,Ameachi, okorocha n the rest that had been falsely feeling too important will surely be taught a lesson.

This shouldn't be limited to the South West for equity n transparency,it should be nation wide,in fact it will be more effective for the customs to be raiding stores n markets for contraband goods than blocking them at our porous large borders,if the dealers know they can't successfully sell the goods they wouldn't take the pains to smuggle it.

Should that be the reason the man wants to destroy what he’s children would inherit with a gold digger. If the man was doing what he’s doing with some respect and dignity I would have reasoned with him.
If the side chick is a gold digger then the wife that sent the man running from the US is gold destroyer,you don't what pains the woman might have put the man through.

Everyone will try to defend his own side and probably lie.
The issue here is that the woman from the story has a contribution to the building that the man is trying to claim ownership of.
Whether she was troublesome or not,she shouldn't be denied her rights.
But the man said he had other houses n was willing to leave so what's the fuss all about,let everyone enjoy his/her peace shikena.

Girl9999:
I created this account to hide my identity. I'm in a very emotional condition at the moment. I've been crying since morning. I've not left my house, not even for church. I've lost the will to live, all because of what happened yesterday evening.

I've been dating this guy for two months. I thought he was a great guy. He was always nice to me, smart and hard-working. I lost my virginity at the age of 18 in University and it was to someone that just wanted to have sex with me. He lied about loving me. All he wanted was sex and when he had his way he abandoned me and dated another girl in my department. Since then I've had a fear of relationships, most importantly of sex. I vowed to only have sex with someone I was going to marry; someone I was certain loved me.

When I met my boyfriend, I thought he was the one. We vibed well and we were both in the same field of work. Everything seemed to click. I opened up to him about my experience and my decision to have sex only when I was ready. He agreed and said he was going to respect my wishes.

Yesterday he visited me at my apartment. This wasn't the first time he was visiting me. We paid each other visits all the time. This time he brought a bottle of wine with him. I prepared food, we both eat and he served us some wine. The last thing I remember is taking few sips and then everything else is blurry.

Next thing I am waking up by 8am this morning with a severe headache, cramped legs and a sore feeling around my vagina. There was something that looked like dried semen on my left thigh and some around my breast. I could also perceive the scent of his perfume on my body. He raped me. The man that claimed to love me raped me. I haven't spoken to anyone since morning, all I've been doing is crying. My phone has been on silent all day.

I want to report him to the police but first I want to look at his face and ask why he would do this to me. I already planned on having sex with him soon. Why couldn't he wait? I want to involve my parents and his parents as well but I don't want this news to spread and take a hit on my reputation. I'm confused about what to do.

Why are men like this? I feel defiled and violated. My mind has been constantly flooded with suicidal thoughts all day. If I make it through this, I'm done with relationships forever.
see if you are not ready to have sex don't just date men,the idea of platonic relationship always end in tears,just make your stand known from the onset n walk away if you are not sure shikena,or at best go date a monk.

cry Most married men are inside bondage (juju) That is why I don't pity any married man having side chick, na the lady go render him useless materially and financially. Look at his beautiful wife cry cry old papa is still having side chick grin grin . All these side chicks destroying peaceful home knowingly, na motor go jam you very soon, you shall never know peace
But the man himself said the wife has been big trouble to him for long, it's the man that went for the side chick due to the troublesome nature of his wife as he claimed so I don't really blame the side chick but the wife who most likely felt she has gotten the financial muscles n was bossing the husband with little regards n the man was just planning his escape.

Why are couples just easily drawn apart these days?What should draw them together seems to be pulling them apart.

I hope the wife gets justice and doesn't get cheated.It's her sweat.
I hope women wise up and make sure properties they build together are jointly in their names.

Being together and building together should be what marriage is about.

Ka Chineke mezie okwu.
Did you read the part were the husband said the wife was big trouble,that should give you a clue to why the man left her in the US n returned to Nigeria, always check the both sides of every argument before jumping to conclusions.

Anytime the heat gets on the north they would quickly find means of playing with the intelligence of the other parts of the country,if Gumi also truly believe in peaceful coexistence be then he should be telling his northern Muslim brothers stop imposing their views n agenda on others but always create room for the aspirations n interests of others as they pursue their Islamic religion eg there should be designated areas in kano, kaduna or elsewhere under shari'a where non Muslims can do their business in peace instead of threatening everyone forcefully, this is the best opportunity to really redefine nigeria for good,let the heat be maintained until eventually we can get to talk n set the right standards for ourselves.

The herdsmen problem in the country is festering for the singular reason of insincerity,bias n indecisiveness on the part of buhari ,very simple what buhari should do is to get the northern states with vast good vegetation lands such as Nigeria,kogi,kano,kaduna,gombe,bauchi,adamawa,etc,grant repayable loans to them n assist them in establishing large ranches/grazing reserves, while the states draft the rules regulating the use of the ranches/grazing reserves then herdsmen/users can use the ranches/grazing reserves for fees n in compliance with the rules, eventually the loans would be repaid n as the livestock business which shall be organized booms most states would voluntarily key into the programme,I make this suggestions based on the facts that,the fulanis are indegenous people of the north,the northern states has more Land n less population density, livestock rearing is a private business,to allay the fears of other states to the issue of public money being use to sponsor private business etc, there's also the need now for the country to have national data base of her citizens n let the free movement of herders across borders be stop in view of the widespread security challenges they pose,yes it's the right of all Nigerians to move n live anywhere in the country but where the pursuit of a right results to public security problems it should be the duty of government to act sincerely, swiftly n firmly to solve the problem in a manner that it will be good to all,I don't see the herdsmen or most of our national problems as insolvable, it's just the sincerity n will power that's lacking.

what an insult,but I don't blame the sharia council where are those who were laughing at governor Ortom?, it's the indecisiveness of the south as a whole that is the cause,if all the states of the south had enacted laws banning open grazing a long time ago at most the herdsmen would have been pleading for compromise now n not making threat, cattle herding is purely a private business,no ethics group should be threatening government over such,the north has more than enough Land to build ranches or grazing reserves,the sharia council should request the northern states with vast lands to be in the forefront of establishing ranches or grazing reserves.
