I blame the president for this. If it were me I won't give them any Kobo, I will do direct projects in each senatorial zone of every state. Useless people.

newbornmacho:
Just one incident with Hausa casualties and you are already calling for division of the country!!! Can you now see what others have endured? Kaduna, Jos, Kano, youth corpers killed, farmers slaughtered, protesters killed, yet when they ask for justice you people laugh it off, praise be to God who allows all that goes around to come around. The cries of the innocents have risen to God, and he will answer. You want to divide the country ? Be my guest , and be fast about it.

On all those incidences no northern came up with lies to change what actually happened and paint the perpetrators as victims. Every act of violence was condemned squarely and compensations paid on many occasions. In one year alone Isah Yuguda rebuilt more than five churches.
We did not just start calling for division, we never wanted a one Nigeria in the first place. And nobody in the south is even serious about the division, because up till today no southern lawmaker has attempted to sponsor a bill to repeal the indivisibilty clause in the Constitution. All of you are just paying lip service to it, may be we just have to do it ourselves.

confused religion.
Why not just try to worship like Jesus did himself instead of dwelling on David's dance styles.

OPCNAIRALAND:
Dude, please let bygone be bygone. You know I respect Hausa people and I have many of them and fulani as friends. When a tragedy befalls them they dont howl much on it they resign to it as the wish of Allah. So this incidence in Ile Ife is the wish of Allah. Let it go, please my brother. Leave it alone. Every ethnic group in Nigeria at one time or the other have been victim of ethnic clash. Why is it when Hausa suffer casualty the law must change?

Swallow it. What ffk reported is true. No one coukd take picture because the situation was volatile and everybody scattered. Thats why, otherwise you will see picture. If you notice the Hausa bodies were taken after everything calmed.

This is the wish of Allah. Shikena

The lies peddled regarding the crisis by FFK and the general media which you also seem to agree with os in fact as painful as the killings themselves.
What is the name of that so called beheaded Yoruba dude and where is the corpse.
We're is the picture of the stab wounds on both the woman and her husband.
A small market incidence that lead to the woman being slapped lead to the death of over 30 Hausa men and women, and you are here concocting lies to justify your actions and claim victims just because the Hausa are already painted black.
What any sane human should have done was to condemn the act and call for the prosecution of the culprits.
Don't take our simplicity and taking any accident as an act of God lead you to believe we are naive.
The least we expect is an unreserved apology, trail of the culprits and compensation for lives and properties lost.

God bless you FriendNG. I made a comment on that thread regarding this issue. It's disturbing the level of hate displayed against us in this country despite the blatant lies as you expertly outlined almost everyone was agreeing to whatever FFK has vomited.
They were again castigating Kwankwaso and Aregbesola for the peace meeting.
This so called beheaded Yoruba young name up till today has no name, no family and no one could locate his body.
What happened was that a people who have been painted black by the rest of the country were mercilessly massacred more than 30 innocent Hausa people were killed because of an alleged slap.
I will not forgive our security agents if FFK is not held accountable to this his hate speech. He shall be given the Mmaikori treatment.
And finally I believe we shall just divide this country so that everyone will have a peace of mind.

Amarabae:
I just can't understand why APC is paranoid over anything PDP.
power still belong to the people, Buhari APC administration is a BIG FAILURE, even el-rufai has admitted that, relax, stop getting agitated over PDP,
prepare for PDP in 2019.

Which faction of the PDP are we to prepare for? Is it Sherif or Makarfi's PDP?

Useless party, when you were in power you connived to stop funding of political parties so that only you will have access to public funds as evident in Dasuki the ATM. Now you want the same funding you stopped to be returned.
Do unto others as you wish to be done to you as well. PDP eyaff finished!

mmsen:
You are a liar and a terrible historian.

You are the only person who thinks that Buhari has achieved anything.

It was certain governors who wanted the excess crude oil funds in their pockets - some of whom are now in GMB's government or at least his greatest supporters.

The North did not want independence but they did not want the south to become independent and for them to remain a colony so we ended up with 'Nigeria'. The British would not allow southern Nigerian to become independent when asked in the 1930s and 1940s. Even today the North is not ready to be independent.

Anything that is progressive, such as a real census, fiscal federalism, an age limit to marriage, family planning is kicked against by northern elements.

I am glad that you can see that the best option is to break up. No one needs an albatross around their neck when trying to run forward.

You called me a lair and then went ahead to claim the only one who thinks PMB HAS achieved anything. Do you know what every Nigerian thinks? Definitely not! Hence you just lied to yourself.
Bottom line is the north initially showed reluctance to work with south in one Nigeria that was made very clear. Awolowo had go round campaigning how a clause for disintegration advocated by the north shouldn't be included.
If you are serious for the break up one of your senators shall sponsor a bill to repeal the clause that claimed the indivisibilty of the country.
You can't claim more educated more enlightenment more endowed more populated and still can't structure the country to your satisfaction even when you had the presidency instead you resorted to Senseless and clueless looting like no tomorrow.
Better get your sh!t together!
PMB till 2023, alternatively Kwankwaso or El Rufai till 2027!
Good night.

mmsen:
The economy has contracted since 2014. Not even stagnation but outright regression .

The useless Fulani herdsmen have ramped up their murderous campaign.

The northern elite are stealing food and other resources meant for people in IDP camps and no one has been held to account.

Malnutrition in the north.

All this but you are celebrating because GMB is a northerner...

How are northerners benefiting from the chaos and regression?

If you love your people so much why don't you do yourself and the entire African continent a favor and agitate for your own nation where you can mismanage yourselves as much as you like?

You keep changing the topic, now it's about herdsmen and IDP food. Do you even know who is called an elite? Elite stealing IDP food? For real? If criminal elements put in charge distributing food iIDPs divert and mismanage it that's a different topic. Most of the aid donations are actually handled by international organizations like red cross and WFP. A few trucks may be stolen by store keepers and others in charge of the food. So how can an acclaimed elite who control the country at large steal trucks of food?
From Sokoto to Zamfara to Kaduna to Niger to Benue to FCT to Ekiti and many more there are hundreds of Fulani herdsmen who have been arrested for one crime other, buy I believe you mischievously decided to ignore that.
I never said we support PMB'S administration because he is a northerner, no! it's because of what he is achieving. If people can support and still depend GEJ'S administration they should actually be throwing parties for PMB'S. Unless of course your don't know what a country really need. Embezzling foreign exchange when crude oil was selling above $100 a barrel didn't irk you but the consequence of their lack of prudence which only happen to to manifest now you heap the blame on PMB.
Left for people like you we shall still be importing everything at the detriment of our national development, just because you want to buy rice at N8k per bag.
Lastly go check history, the north never wanted one Nigeria, and made the point on several occasions. But your leaders from the south hungry for power fame and wealth coerced and convinced the north to stay. The initial arrangement where every region governs itself was the only condition north gave in order to be part of one Nigeria.
Up till today, people like Junaid Muhammad have made it clear the north is ready for break up. Personally I believe it's the best option for everyone. But none of you is serious about breakup. They have not even taken the the right direction for break up.

That's very sad. Dogs are my favorite animals. I can imagine the heartbreak.

mmsen:
You really are a deluded soul if you believe that Buhari has "done well".

The economic indices say otherwise.

The state of anarchy that persists in the north says otherwise.

But you keep lying to yourself if that is what makes you happy.


P.S.
As to your point about Dangote, in light of your comment about Buhari I can understand why you would fail to see why it is important for Nigerians to harness their resources to solve Nigeria's problems and not wait on foreign intervention before resolving domestice issues. Your way of thinking is why the atmosphere in the north allowed Boko Haram to fester for so many years. It's not your business right? Until it kills your loved ones. A very disturbing, short-sighted and immature way of thinking.

Heheheheh Believe whatever you like, we that live in the north know the difference between 2014 and 2017. As evident by organised prayers and rallies to welcome PMB says it all about what people especially in the north are benefiting. You think somebody who has been an IDP for 3 years cares for a raise in dollar exchange.
Here is a bitter truth people that think like me are in the majority, and PMB will absolutely win again in 2019, and there's nothing your small population can do about it, except may be field another northerner.
Dangote carry go!
PMB carry go!
Kwankwaso carry go!
El-Rufai carry go!
*tongue out*

abdulaz:
Dem don take our money train their children finish for abroad.

Religion is only meant to keep the poor and gullible at bay. Hypocrisy is when you send your daughter to school in the UK while you tell your subjects that formal education is bad for a girl child.

Buy Nigeria to grow Nigeria my foot.

Who ever says "formal" education is bad for a girl child?

stephleena:
I thought the said girl,is married.. and her husband, still permitted her going to school,beyond the shores of nigeria sef..take it or leave it,Islam is meant for the poor Nigerians..

Lol! It's obvious you have a different interpretation of Islam than the Muslims themselves. FYI prophet Muhammad categorically declared that seeking knowledge is compulsory for every "Muslim male" and "Muslim female" Even Boko Haram taught the kidnapped Chibok girls how to recite the Qur'an.
So where do you get the conviction Muslim women are not allowed to go to school? married or otherwise.
Those you see who don't seek knowledge among the Muslim it's more of a cultural flaw because Islam has made seeking knowledge the most important aspect of human life and is considered a worship on its own.

mmsen:
It took the intervention of Bill Gates for Dangote to get involved in the campaign to ensure that Nigeria was Ebola free. Why did it take a foreigner before you realized that you should use your wealth and influence to ensure that your home, the place where your business is based is disease free?

If you know that something is likely to ruin the business climate, whether that be Ebola or GMB would a smart person not intercede to stop said element from wreaking havoc (as has been the case with GMB)?

Oga with due respect that's just bunkum! He's a business man his obligation is ONLY to those he signed a binding contract with.
It's absolutely voluntary if he decides to intervene in any situation he deems fit. There are government agencies with people on monthly salaries whose main responsibility is to take care of situations such as Ebola break out. Even if Dangote never raised a finger it's absolutely none of his business.
Regarding PMB's government that's totally your own flawed opinion. Dangote's decline in net worth is solely due to crash of Naira primarily caused by shortage in foreign exchange which is in turn mainly caused by crash in crude oil price - NONE of these above was caused by PMB or his administration.
To people like us PMB has done well above average especially in fighting terrorism and safeguarding our commonwealth. So park well even Dangote is with PMB on this.

emeka2847:
Nobody is talking PAEDOPHILE now o. It is now "people of this world", "This wicked world" etc.

We need to wake up and start acting like enlightened people.

Ethnicity should play less role in our perception of issues.

Just imagine if this had happened in the north.

Amarabae:
Who is Dangote's wife? Is he married

Lol Madam are you interested?
Well he divorced his wife the mother of his kids due to some personal issues. The woman is currently the second wife of former Bauchi state governor Isah Yuguda. Or so I heard.
His eldest daughter Halima is now the head of Dangote flour.

mmsen:
He may be wealthy but the fact that this is a man who refused to take the lead in the fight against ebola or take a political stand against a useless cretin such Buhari is why I don't have a particularly high opinion of this man.

If he were a visionary business leader (and not just someone who has leveraged the corrupt Nigerian political climate to his benefit) he would have realized that Buhari's tenure would be a disaster for his business and net worth and that the stigma of ebola would hamper investment into the wider west Africa region.

What are you trying to say that Dangote should campaign against PMB? And what does Dangote have to do with Ebola? Please enlighten me.

It looks like the man is a traditionalist, but wetin carry Mohammed enter his name.
Anyway I never heard of him.

Heheheheh they don give am class-rep.

Let them come and insult Arewa again.
I remember when a similar case happened in the north all our ancestors took thr
blame.
We shall condemn wrong doings wherever and whenever. I hope the perp is held to account t for this assault. and what is the school doing about the case.

stonemasonn:
That was an innocent Fulani girl
Before religion took away the innocence

Lol! Do you know that Fulanis are the ones that brought Islam to most parts of Nigeria?

Tokziby:
Senseless People, na so e dey start. Them no dey learn. "Kainji don dey dry" annual bad news.
Why would u locate a dam in a landlock area accompanied with high temperature. Small time now them go dey complain say water dey dry thats why power drop. Why not build a solar power farm across the North since what u have in abundance is sunlight which is about 10-11 months in a year. In fact the north should be having 24hr power supply with the level of sun wey dey that area.

Your Dams are best located in the middle belt or south where there is abundance of rainfalls, several rivers an streams. Your best location should be the confluence town of lokoja where the two rivers meet which can never experience dryness cos of the two sources. Awon alainironu, kaduna refinery no dey teach una, drill oil for south and pay humongous amount to pump and secure the pipelines.

Nigerian politicians are nothing but Dumbf**ks!!!

Look at this one who knows nothing about dam project forming professor.
Do you know how many factors are considered before sighting a dam? It's obvious you don't, to your ignorant mind all that is required for a hydro dam is a river.
Talking about refinery in the north India boasts of the world's largest refinery, yet produces no crude oil. So go and insult them.
Try and and find out wisdom and reasons behind actions before you assume and disgrace yourself.

kolaish:
Please reason well. If a man slap my wife and i go there to ask why, will the same man kill me if I asked decently? The truth is that the NURTW (Agbero) man must have been annoyed and mobilized others to go there and fight the people that beats his wife, then the whole issue escalated into a fight and not as told by FFK.

I refused to believe that the same hausa people killed the yoruba people and paraded their heads, knowing fully well that they are in ile ife and not kano, no and no. This is a made-up story. I do not allow emotions to becloud my sense of reasoning.

God bless you.
It's disturbing the level of blindness displayed here due to hate.
It's very dangerous the way commenters are supporting FFK on these file of bile hate filled and divisive article.
Even if the Hausa attacked first and killed many Yorubas it's very wrong and dangerous to give it a blanket blame on every Hausa man and Fulani as well, to the extent of dragging the people trying to calm nerves and forestall any further crisis.
I hope the security agents arrest all those responsible for violence on both sides and definitely do something about pedaling blatant lies and trying to insight further violence.

bakila:
Make Magu Senior Special Assistant on Money Laundry and Corrupt Practices.

Lol! Yeah something like that.

This may actually be a good thing.
If I were the president I'd look for a more ferocious nominee and send him again while giving him mandate to consult Magu on every decision. There are a million ways to kill a cat.

Congrats to him, but leave that thing. The best Atiku could do is to be a first runner-up in APC primary election.

The worst enemies are enemies within.
Make sure you deal with the saboteurs. btw I just finished watching a mafia movie.

shukuokukobambi:
Dear sis, I don't think I'll agree with you on this. The first step to loving others is to love yourself first. His visit there is to identify with his people who were at the receiving end of a communal clash abi you think he went in company of Aregbesola to rile them up for another fight?

I'm not happy about that crisis in Ife or anywhere for that matter at all as a lot of innocents always get caught up in the crossfire. Any attempt to identify with and show sympathy to the affected party is welcome by me except of course its proven that he went there to further fan the embers of conflict

Don't mind Sarrki and Modath. It's obvious their loyalty is to PMB alone.
PMB has been grossly misunderstood as tribalistic and religiously fanatical more than any Nigerian, same way Kwankwaso's opponents are trying to do to him.
The main issue here is that charity begins at home. And as a leader you have to do your best to assist your kinsmen whether they are guilty or victims. If the northerners were at fault in any crisis all he could do is to post their bail (which is totally legal) and calm them down not to retaliate.
You can't be defending PMB at the same time accuse Kwankwaso of the same offense, you appear ridiculous.

The question is why haven't they done this since the dollar was around 200?
The guy above me asked the right question. And by my count the CBN has injected not less than $700m just stabilize the Naira. I want to believe they know what they are doing, but to it seems unsustainable and and wasteful.

It's actually not a bad idea, there are countries with similar clauses in their constitution. Venezuela am sure of as an example.
