I've seen bold riders and I've seen old riders but I've never seen an old, bold rider. It is all fun until it isn't.

Which reminds me. Has anyone seen Yusuf Buhari? Ever since that guy slammed his face on the pavement he seems not to appreciate the beauty of power bikes anymore. Such a shame.

Why haven't security agencies gone after the Fulani killers? They are not hiding. They are in communities within Doma and Obi local government of Nasarawa state. They cross the river Benue to Benue state to kill and then return. Why isn't there a comprehensive effort to hunt them down?

We read today that Fulani rappelling down from a helicopter attacked communities in Abia state. Haba!

Are we sure these are just Fulani? Or Boko Haram cells that have spread around the country?

Just to appeal to our sense of vanity. Nigerians are some of the most vain and deceptive people you will meet anywhere.

We import scraps from junkyards in the west, refurbish them, clean and wrap them up and then sell. A few months down the road it starts giving issues and what do we do? We still go for another second hand.

This only underlines that Nigeria is a nation of poor people. That's why a tokunbo market exists in Nigeria. That's why a market for 'london used' phones and gadgets exists in this country. A nation driven by the mentality of poverty. Because a foreigner or white man used it then it is good as new. Madness.

Next time, rub pepper spray on your hands and give him a very vigorous handshake. Thank me later.

the governor was challenged to name names. why has he not done so?

Why will he name names? It is possible he has Fulani taking care of cows for him too.

A picture is clearly forming now. The governor says Benue indigenes in Abuja are behind these killings.
On Sunday, a large herd of cows belonging to a Benue house of reps member were spotted in Makurdi being led by 6 Fulani herdsmen and escorted by a coterie of police escorts.

There are several incidents where cattle get stolen and not necessarily by the natives. The Fulani in charge know that they can't go and give their Tiv and idoma bosses story. So they either kidnap for ransom to replace the stolen cows or they kill for revenge where they can't.

Benue people need to ask themselves this. When your tor Tiv got sworn in, how many cows did the sultan of Sokoto give him as gifts? How many cows were given to the Ochi Idoma?

Every major politician in Benue state was given gifts of cows and these cows are in the care of Fulani. That's why the Fulani operate with brazen confidence.


Nothing wrong with having and keeping cows. But when your people are being killed it smacks of insensitivity to have the killers of your people under your employment.

That's why they fought Governor Ortom for the anti-grazing laws he put in place. That is why you can't find any Benue politician speaking out against these killings. Why will they? Their cows are more important.

Israel's cup will fill up one day. It is only a matter of time

Funny enough, majority of this ladies will hide their dirty lifestyle until you marry them into the house.. Only to see that you have been deceived!

You just hit the nail on the head bro. Women have been scamming men long before Obasanjo grew hair on his private parts.

I find this hard to beelive. But just maybee his time has come.

Nitel had never been anyone's darling. With very fraudulent and corrupt staff, poor service and over billing. Nitel and it's staffers killed itself. They were a monopoly before GSM came. Billions were looted from that organisation at every level by all staff.

If the governor wants this thing to end, he must declare a general state wide strike. Every business and road be shut down. No movement of anything. The federal government is handling the killings with kid gloves. Until every federal road in that state is shut down, they won't give attention.

I don't understand. A question gets asked and some shameless entities find a way to make it all about the Igbo. Frankly, it is becoming sick and nauseating. If you have nothing of value to contribute, why not just not post anything?

It is not like the Fulani have spared Igbo land in these attacks. Communities in Enugu and Imo state have also been attacked. So I find it strange why some people want to gloat.

Not does not have an airforce. Certainly not a capable one. The attack on the Yelwata community in Benue state that killed over 200 people lasted for over 5 hours. The Nigerian airforce largest base, the tactical air command Makurdi, can be said to be just a stone throw away. A helicopter can fly from TAC and be in Yelwata in 5 minutes. Yet all these attacks go on and no air assets have been deployed.

That's not even embarrassing enough. The Nigerian army 72bn which is the home of paratroopers is 25 minutes drive away. Yet airborne insertions which they train for, was not available.

It is not out of place to say Nigerian armed forces are deliberately incompetent across board. It is shameful to say the least.

Good. Israel should know what it feels like. They can dish it. They should be prepared to take it.

Iran had 3 seperate teams design and test out designs for a nuclear implosion device. This necessitated the urgency of Israeli attacks.

Iran's primary uranium enrichment facilities are buried 70 meters deep under huge mountains. Israel does not have the aircraft or the specialized GBU 57A/B Massive ordnance penetrator that is needed to reach targets that deep. This 13,500kg bomb is only owned by the US and can only be carried by the US owned B52 or B2 spirit bombers.

Which is why Israel is begging for the US to get involved. Interesting times are ahead.

It was only a matter of time. With marketers planning to import fuel to sell at 700 naira, dangote would have been stupid not to embark on some form of retailing.

Let's analyse this further. Dangote has signed a deal to import 5000 units of CNG trucks. This means his costs of transport will be far cheaper than using diesel. Will he pass on the savings to consumers? If he does, IPMAN and MOMAN will be facing a very major challenge.

CNG trucks are the game changer. Dangote may bury independent marketers for good if he does this. But then again, he is dangote and profit maximisation is drives him. He may still keep fuel prices high even though he has the mechanism to drop prices.

Beer and more beer. Then I take a day off drinking to allow my faculties rejuvenate. Then I face the matter headlong and brutally.

First to comment, I deserve a trophy as a father

Which kind of trophy? The trophy wey dem dey carry abi the trophy wey dey carry person?

Because I dey somewhere dey arrange myself like dis make man eye clear. People wey go church go soon come join me. I say make I dey test the mic before dem come.

I got similar messages. They said they are from temu. I did the rubbish task they asked and got 2500 naira. I even joined there telegram group they had just to observe what's going on. Gullible people were just transferring money to others. I'm talking about tens of thousands of naira.

Laziness can be a super power in itself. As I no bother to complete the other tasks, dem just stop to message me.

I still chop their 2500. Scammers.

This is bad. To think just last night, I saw a Benue links bus fully loaded with passengers headed to Makurdi around 11pm. They stopped over to refuel and I engaged the driver in conversation.

I asked him if he wasn't aware of what Fulani are doing on the lafia - Makurdi road. He was dismissive. I wished him luck and drove off.

Mind you, Yelwata is on a major federal highway. The following major military formations are all less than 35 minutes drive. to Yelwata. Nigerian army 72 BN Makurdi, Nigerian air force tactical air command, and others within lafia. Yet the military has failed to go after these attackers who have lodged in the forests of Nasarawa state and attack from there.

President Tinubu will be in lafia this week to commission projects. Yelwata is a short 25 minutes drive from Lafia. Will he be bothered to visit?

This same kind of thing happened in Plateau state and today over 64 communities in Plateau state have been resettled and renamed by Fulani.

The same government that can't send helicopters to trace the location of these Fulani killers was quick to send policemen and helicopters to dislodge people who protested in Makurdi today.

The Fulani don't hide. They are on the banks of River Benue on the Nasarawa side. That's where they cross from to come and kill in Benue. Our security agencies are simply incapable of doing their jobs.

Imagine the guts. I don't blame him though.

The president will visit lafia the capital of Nasarawa state next week. Lafia is a 20 minute drive from Yelwata in Benue state where Fulani killed over 200 people yesterday.

Will be be bothered to pay them a visit? Your guess is as good as mine.

Baba wey steal from Naija buy we looked away cos he gave us democrazy

Exactly. That's what Maryam Abacha was talking about the other day. Abdusallam emptied the national treasury of billions of dollars before leaving. Obasanjo just didn't want to address the matter.
