Every Non South African should leave South Africa, this is not about documented or non- documented immigrants, these people are Xenophobic, the warning is enough for the wise, except for those who don't have value for their lives, these people are not rational in their thinking, because in any rational society, if you see a foreigner in your country and the person is resourceful, that person is an asset to that nation, that person is not depriving anyone of their opportunities, but rather will provide many opportunities. The Sky is big enough for every Bird to fly, but the Lazy bird that can't fly thinks the bird that is flying very high up there has taken up the whole sky. God has endowed both the Land and human beings with enough resources, everybody's carrying a wealth of resources, that is why the most populated countries are also the wealthiest, the greatest mistake any society will make is to drive away a resourceful foreigner, they should be driving away unproductive foreigners and dangerous people Killing their Citizens, by driving away rescouseful foreigners, they are driving away rescourses and opportunities, and any foreigner that believes he cant make it on his own country except in South Africa is equally as foolish.

South Africans have always been Lazy and unproductive, If not for the white settlers among them that developed South Africa, left to the Black South Africans, South Africa would have been nothing but a desert waste land because the blacks among them are lazy. that's why they are envious of the progress of other Africans ... South Africans are Poor and Jobless people, They think by looting the shops of fellow Africans, their lives will change, but poverty is a mentality. Even after driving away the rescourseful African migrants among them, they will still remain Jobless, these unproductive South Africans cannot see the viable opportunities around them that other Africans are seeing and exploring these opportunities to develop and even employ South Africans, what South Africans are seeing is the progress these migrants are making and getting envious of them as if the migrants are supposed to be as dumb as they care.

Fake news from haters who have been crying death to America and death to Israel, Iran dares not attempt striking American naval ships first, they know what it will cost them, Iran has common sense, they won't attack first especially when the ceasefire is not over, they know the war will continue soon, and America will soon strike them, but they will not strike first, because they don't want the war to continue,

Nigerian military and cowardice na 1 and 2.
How can you shoot a 13 years old kid point blank....
No restrain no discipline

you are talking of discipline, when you are dealing with an animal.

There's nothing new about this threat, ever since boko haram, Iswap, and fulani jihadists started operating in Nigeria, they have consistently issued this threat, and carried them out, the only thing new now is the denial of a Christian genocide, calling it struggle for land and water resources, or farmers/herders clashes.

So after burning you in hell, what does God actually gain? Nothing! For everyone person burning in hell, God has lost a cherished, precious soul that He created, in fact, you can't imagine the torture and pain God experience for every soul that goes to hell.
What is even more painful is that He allowed Jesus, His first Son to die a humiliating death so that no one will ever go to hell, and after He allowed that, some people still say, i don't believe he died for me, so these people die in their sins and go to hell, and that breaks God's heart,

2 Peter 3:9. NIV
The Lord is not slow in keeping his promise, as some understand slowness. Instead he is patient with you, not wanting anyone to perish, but everyone to come to repentance.

2 Peter 3. NLT
The Lord isn’t really being slow about his promise, as some people think. No, he is being patient for your sake. He does not want anyone to be destroyed, but wants everyone to repent.

Hell was created for the devil because he rebelled against God, when we sin, we also rebel against God, and there's only one place God has created for the rebellious soul, the Lake of fire,

God has done everything He could for us not to go there, but if we reject His provision to avert us from going to hell, God will not force His choice on us, as free moral beings, the final decision to go or not to go to hell depends on us. The provision to escape hell is in Jesus, when you accept Jesus, you accept the provision, when you reject Jesus, you reject the provision.

They don't have to shed a drop of blood to practice their shari'a, when Nigeria is de-amalgamated, and we have Southern Nigeria, to the South, and the Islamic Republic of Nigeria, to the North, then if everybody wants to cover themselves like masquerade, fine and good,

That means it's time to start exporting Banditry as one of Nigeria's foreign exchange.

They should be careful not to anger the terrorists, otherwise the terrorists might increase the ransom

The President deserves credit for it, if he didn't approve the ransom release, the CBN governor does not have the power to do so, what we should be worried about is that the CBN may soon become bankrupt for paying ransom, and there might be need to approach the World Bank for more loans to pay ransom

ebukal67x:
Soyinka is right. No one should threaten to invade a sovereign nation.

a sovereign nation that has been taken hostage by terrorists, soldiers who are supposed to defend the nation cannot even defend themselves, and somebody is still talking about sovereignty, what sovereignty, can Soyinka tell Boko Haram and ISWAP and Fulani herdsmen to respect Nigeria's sovereignty? Terrorists have disgraced our sovereignty, and another country wants to fight the terrorists, you're saying you have sovereignty.

There's nothing new about the killing of Christians in the north, the only thing new is the government's denial of the killings,

When the bandits were killing them, they didn't protest, and another person wants to come and kill the bandits for them, they have a problem with that, now the motives behind insecurity in Nigeria is being exposed.

The only threat to Nigeria's sovereignty is coming from the terrorists, and their sponsors, they have disgraced Nigeria enough, before the 2015 elections, Buhari imported jihadists from the Sahel region in their millions to invade Nigeria, what sovereignty do we still have as a nation, today these Fulani nuisance have infiltrated every part of Nigeria carrying arms and ammunition with them, today there's no part of Nigeria that still enjoys security, and somebody is talking about sovereignty, what makes us sovereign when invaders from outside Nigeria has taken the whole nation ransom, the only hope Nigeria has is to invite external intervention no matter what it will cost.

If you want Trump to leave you alone, then leave Christians alone, stop the genocide against Christians, and Trump will leave you alone.

The strategy is the same All over Nigeria, just to make it look like farmers Herders fighting for resource control, but it's not, the strategy of deliberately invading farmlands with cattle is simply to stir up a confrontation from the farmers, that will eventually lead to a 'reprisal' attack from the Herders to justify annexation of that community. People who dismiss this Fulani jihadist invasion as mere farmers Herders clashes are mischievous, because under normal circumstances, if the motives are genuine, a Herder's choice of grazing land will not be the farmland of a farmer who has suffered and invested so much to cultivate his farm only for him to lose everything in one day to Herders who decided to graze their cattle on his farm knowing fully well this will lead to a confrontation from the farmers, and then followed up by an invasion from the Fulani militia, at the end of the day, the fulanis will seize and occupy the land, kill and displace the Inhabitants of that community and rename the place.

China is a stupid country, they have never shown any concern towards the plight of Nigerians, rather, what they are looking for is how to get contracts from Nigeria, and the Chinese contractors are also being kidnapped.

[quote author=ElSudani post=137356988]Americans are daily being harassed by ICE in the streets of Chicago, LA, Dallas and elsewhere.
Should another country invade the US for the human rights violations?
Not to mention the routine church shootings. Who is protecting the American Christians?

The Americans harassed by the ICE are illegal immigrants, most of whom are causing problems for Americans, members of cult gangs, violating the rights of Americans. Meanwhile, it is some of these elements that are often involved in the church shootings, and unlike in Nigeria, there's no church shooting that has gone without arresting the perpetrators. Should we not be praying to God to give us a leader like Trump, if we do, we will have a Nigeria without Boko Haram and ISWAP terrorists, a Nigeria without Fulani jihadist kidnappers and ritualists, because he will send them back to where they belong.

Trump knows exactly what he is saying, there's a preponderance of materials and resources posted online that everyone can have access to exposing genocide against Christians in Nigeria, in addition, the former governor of Texas invited by Reno Omokri, Mike Arnold had earlier undertaken an extensive and comprehensive investigation into the killings, conducted over a period of ten years, travelling accross the length and breath of Nigeria, engaging people of all persuasions in interviews and making voice and video documentations, only those who have not seen the report will say there was intelligence failure somewhere, it's obvious, with Trump's fury, this material must have found it's way to him because Mike Arnold is a friend of Ted Cruz, the narrative the Nigerian government is peddling is that there's general insecurity problem and both Christians and Muslims are equally affected is either a cover up to play on the intelligence of everyone, or it's an intelligence failure. It is true Muslims are being killed by Boko Haram in the north, but the killing is not genocidal in nature, Boko Haram is not out to wipe out Islam in the north, but they are targeting Islamic clerics who do not agree with their agenda of creating an Islamic state in the north, and they will attack their mosques, it's not a blanket attack on all Muslims, and at the moment, Boko Haram is not even attacking Christians in the north because there are no Christians to attack, having reduced the population of Christians in their areas of control to a mere 2%. The current genocide against Christians in Nigeria is being perpetrated by the Fulani militia, and it's taking place in the middle belt, it's a systemic well planned agenda to completely wipe out Christianity in Nigeria, but the strategy is to take over the middle belt first, but those who want to confuse Nigerians and the world will not mention the Fulani herdsmen, they will point to what Boko Haram is doing, how they are killing Muslims as well, while every act of terrorism must be condemned, whether by Boko Haram or ISWAP, or Fulani jihadist, it is important to note that there is a Christian genocide going on Nigeria.

So America will come all the way to engage Gumi in negotiations with terrorists, laughable.

All the weapons supplied have already found their way into the hands of Boko Haram and ISWAP and Fulani herdsmen, and you want more supplies,

More Christians are being slaughtered daily, it goes unnoticed because it happens in remote and isolated places where there's no media coverage,

The people saying there's no Christian genocide know what is happening, but they want to use the few Muslims Boko Haram is killing in the north east to confuse the world that there is general insecurity, even hypocritical Christian leaders and corrupt Christian politicians looking for favors from the government have already denied this narrative,

The sponsors of Fulani islamist terrorism in Nigeria and their accomplices in all the levels of government in Nigeria should stop wasting their time; the world has full facts and data about Fulani terrorism: the people involved, the sponsors, conspirators, moles, et al.

We have been saying it for a long time. The hen is now coming home to roost. The veil has been lifted, and everyone has now known that Fulani terrorists are the most lethal militants in Africa, camped in Nigeria and backed by many officials in government.

Below is the press statement of Mike Arnold, ex Mayor of Blanco, Texas, USA, who was invited by the Nigerian government on a fact finding mission to diffuse the truth of the narrative that genocidal attacks on Nigerian Christians have been going on for more than a decade in Nigeria:

Formal Statement on Widespread Violence and Displacement in Nigeria

October 14, 2025

By Mayor Mike Arnold, MBA
Founder, Africa Arise International / Africa Arise USA

Presented at Abuja Hilton, 4 p.m. WAT on Tuesday, October 14, 2025

Mr. Judd Saul

I. Purpose and Credentials
My name is Mike Arnold. I recently served as the elected Mayor of the City of Blanco, Texas. I first visited Nigeria in 2010 as a board member of Unity for Africa. Since then, I have made 15 trips to Nigeria, including six extended investigative missions since 2019. I founded Africa Arise International and Africa Arise USA in 2019. I have frequently been quoted in top newspapers and TV news broadcasts here. I have never extracted anything from Nigeria beyond modest gifts. My closest and most trusted friends are native Nigerians. I come only to give, serve, and stand with the people and nation I dearly love as my second home.

I was personally invited here today by National Security Advisor Nuhu Ribadu and influencer Reno Omokri. The sole stated (written) charge given to me for this trip is simply to meet certain key people, and then declare the truth. I know what’s at stake and take this very seriously. While my plane ticket and accommodations have been paid for, I have not asked for, been offered, nor received any compensation or promise of compensation for this. Neither am I connected in any way or compensated by the US Government. I am here independently and this statement is made without coercion or inducement of any kind.

I also note that numerous top US officials have been briefed and are personally aware of my being here, the purpose of my trip, my specific itinerary, and expected return date. At their request, I am providing updates as to my status. These include but are not limited to my Senator from Texas, Ted Cruz, and Congressman Chip Roy, the White House, US State Department and Acting Ambassador, as well as a Pulitzer Prize winning journalist from the New York Times, and their International Editor.

Also note that as I present this statement, it is being simultaneously distributed not only to these people, who are awaiting it, and also posted online for all to access.

This statement is my formal account and analysis of facts, findings, and firsthand documentation of claims of widespread violence, displacement, and atrocity crimes in Nigeria, primarily directed against Christian populations in the North and Middle Belt, and whether this rises to the level of genocide. It is addressed to journalists, international observers, human rights bodies, and policymakers in the United States and abroad.

We have traveled to cities, villages, and remote encampments: from Bokkos, Jos, and Gwoza to Abuja, Lagos, Port Harcourt, Bukuma and Makoko. I have interviewed governors, cabinet ministers, traditional rulers, two former Presidents, and others. I have met orphans whose parents were hacked to death. I have built schools in internally displaced persons (IDP) camps and documented over 80 hours of filmed testimony and evidence, at great personal risk, soon to be released in our documentary film Me & Ms. Hanatu. My findings carry the weight of direct experience.[1]

II. Nigeria in 2010: A Nation at Peace
In 2010, Nigeria was a beacon of rising prosperity and religious tolerance, often cited as the only country where radical Islam was being pushed back. Attacks were rare and sparked national outrage. Recognized IDPs were effectively zero, with only minimal displacement from localized communal conflicts—a stark contrast to the crisis that followed, marked by a 1,200% surge in IDPs by 2011 due to Boko Haram’s escalation.[2] This prior absence of a displacement crisis is both verifiable and damning.

III. What Changed? A Deliberate Crisis
By 2014, Nigeria’s stability was shattered. Foreign meddling, including U.S. involvement, played a pivotal role in the 2015 election, enabling regime change that emboldened actors who ignored or enabled extremist violence.[3][4] High-placed eyewitness testimony confirms this interference, with firms like Cambridge Analytica further skewing the political landscape.[5]

Radical jihadist elements, fueled by foreign fighters from Libya and the Sahel post-2011 Arab Spring—not invaders, but invited—flooded into Nigeria, amplifying Boko Haram and ISWAP.[6][7] Today, over four million Nigerians are displaced—a very conservative estimate based in part on my work in hidden camps denied by officials who label victims “criminals” or “vagrants,” rendering UN and government figures entirely unreliable.[8] The vast majority are Christians, driven from their homes by deliberate political engineering and radical conquest, while mostly Muslim IDP encampments do exist.

IV. Our Team’s Field Work
Since 2019, our team has conducted relentless frontline research:
Interviewed survivors across multiple states.

Operate schools in two IDP camps for both Christians and Muslims, with a third under construction, with a present total of 550+ students. We provide free, high quality education.
Filmed camps the UN and Nigerian government deny exist.
Recorded numerous IDP testimonials via https://www.youtube.com/@My.Voice.Matters
In late 2024, my team visited and filmed in Ngoshe, Gwoza LGA, Borno State—a once-thriving Christian farming community now a post-apocalyptic wasteland. Recent 2025 attacks confirm ongoing devastation, with surviving Christians confined to militarized zones where leaving risks abduction or execution.[9][10] Our firsthand proof exposes a reality ignored by officials. Many people of Gwoza have been refugees in Cameroon for over a decade, abandoned by Nigeria while those who returned languish in the FCT, their homelands occupied by Boko Haram as the seat of its caliphate for years now.

V. Consistent Pattern of Targeted Destruction
Across regions and years, we’ve documented a chilling pattern:

Churches destroyed.
Mosques left untouched.
Christian homes torched.
Jihadists resettled on captured land.
Authorities deny or excuse the attacks.
While some Muslims resisting extremism are targeted, the overwhelming evidence—thousands of churches razed, obviously selective violence—leads some to claim this is a faith-based genocide against Christians and those rejecting radical Islam.[11][12]

VI. What Drives the Violence?
This is not chaos but a calculated campaign driven by three forces:

Radical Islamic Conquest: Armed groups, bolstered by foreign fighters from Libya/Sahel post-Arab Spring, seek to impose extremist ideology with local enablers and political protection, described by eyewitnesses as “jihad by occupation.”[6][7]
Blood Mineral Extraction: Nigeria loses $9 billion annually to illicit mining of gold, tin, and lithium, with a significant portion—estimated at 10%—funding violence and corruption. Heavy machinery and foreign buyers appear days after displacements, exploiting lands of the displaced.[13][14]
Political Realignment: War masquerades as politics—local government areas overrun, electoral districts redrawn by force, militants resettled to skew demographics, dismantling communities deemed inconvenient.

VII. The Euphemism of “Farmer-Herder Clashes”
The term “farmer-herder clashes” is cynical doublespeak, weaponizing historical land disputes to mask jihadist conquest. For centuries, herders and farmers coexisted with rare, non-lethal disputes. Now, villages are erased, churches leveled, and tens of thousands are dead. This is systematic terror, not grazing conflicts—a lie akin to calling Bosnia’s ethnic cleansing a “neighborhood spat.”[8][15] These targeted, deadly attacks are the same whether labeled “herders,” “bandits” or “insurgents.” The puppets may change but the same forces pull the strings. A jihadi by any other name is just as deadly. Mincing words over labels appears to be intentional obfuscation.

While global attention often focuses on Boko Haram and ISWAP, the majority of killings and displacements across Nigeria’s Middle Belt are in fact carried out by the Radical Islamist Fulani Ethnic Militia. Numerous field reports, satellite imagery, and survivor testimonies confirm that these Fulani militant groups—often operating under political protection and mislabeled as “herders”— are responsible for the most widespread, systematic, and sustained attacks on Christian farming communities. Their campaigns extend well beyond traditional grazing disputes, encompassing organized massacres, forced displacement, and the strategic occupation of conquered lands. Today, these Fulani militias represent the single most lethal terrorist threat to Nigeria’s internal stability—surpassing Boko Haram and ISWAP combined in reach, frequency, and civilian death toll.

VIII. The Crime of Obfuscation
I have personally seen ongoing efforts by officials and their loyal media to bury the truth:

Sanitizing massacres as “conflict.”
Labeling displaced survivors “vagrants” and “criminals.”
Refusing to name perpetrators.
This is not confusion—it is complicity. To play semantic games while people die is beyond obscene. There can be no solution while leaders play word games to hide the truth.

IX. Legal Definition of Genocide
Per Article II of the UN Convention on the Prevention and Punishment of the Crime of Genocide (1948), genocide includes acts committed with intent to destroy, in whole or in part, a national, ethnical, racial, or religious group:

(a) Killing members of the group;
(b) Causing serious bodily or mental harm;

(c) Inflicting conditions to bring about physical destruction;

(d) Preventing births within the group;

(e) Forcibly transferring children to another group.

The evidence is undeniable: targeted killings, mass displacement, destruction of homes and churches, denial of aid, and erasure of Christian identity.

X. Conclusion: My Formal Finding
As an objective expert and eyewitness, a longtime lover of and traveler throughout Nigeria with access at the highest levels, based on more than five years of investigation, field interviews, firsthand documentation, and deep consultation with top scholars, statesmen and legal experts, I declare this without any shadow of a doubt:
The campaign of violence and displacement in Northern and Middle Belt Nigeria does indeed constitute a calculated, current and long-running GENOCIDE against Christian communities and other religious minorities, without any reasonable doubt.[1][11][12]

To continue to deny this is to be complicit in these atrocities.

I say this not in anger, but in truth and grief. My stated assignment from my host was to speak the truth and I have done that to the best of my ability.

I believe Nigeria has a bright future. I believe in Christian-Muslim harmony. I believe good people of every tribe and faith must stand against this evil. But first, we must name it.

Here I stand. I can do no other. So help me God.

While global attention often focuses on Boko Haram and ISWAP, the majority of killings and displacements across Nigeria’s Middle Belt are in fact carried out by the Radical Islamist Fulani Ethnic Militia. Numerous field reports, satellite imagery, and survivor testimonies confirm that these Fulani militant groups—often operating under political protection and mislabeled as “herders”— are responsible for the most widespread, systematic, and sustained attacks on Christian farming communities. Their campaigns extend well beyond traditional grazing disputes, encompassing organized massacres, forced displacement, and the strategic occupation of conquered lands. Today, these Fulani militias represent the single most lethal terrorist threat to Nigeria’s internal stability—surpassing Boko Haram and ISWAP combined in reach, frequency, and civilian death toll.

VIII. The Crime of Obfuscation
I have personally seen ongoing efforts by officials and their loyal media to bury the truth:

Sanitizing massacres as “conflict.”
Labeling displaced survivors “vagrants” and “criminals.”
Refusing to name perpetrators.
This is not confusion—it is complicity. To play semantic games while people die is beyond obscene. There can be no solution while leaders play word games to hide the truth.

IX. Legal Definition of Genocide
Per Article II of the UN Convention on the Prevention and Punishment of the Crime of Genocide (1948), genocide includes acts committed with intent to destroy, in whole or in part, a national, ethnical, racial, or religious group:

(a) Killing members of the group;
(b) Causing serious bodily or mental harm;

(c) Inflicting conditions to bring about physical destruction;

(d) Preventing births within the group;

(e) Forcibly transferring children to another group.

The evidence is undeniable: targeted killings, mass displacement, destruction of homes and churches, denial of aid, and erasure of Christian identity.

X. Conclusion: My Formal Finding
As an objective expert and eyewitness, a longtime lover of and traveler throughout Nigeria with access at the highest levels, based on more than five years of investigation, field interviews, firsthand documentation, and deep consultation with top scholars, statesmen and legal experts, I declare this without any shadow of a doubt:
The campaign of violence and displacement in Northern and Middle Belt Nigeria does indeed constitute a calculated, current and long-running GENOCIDE against Christian communities and other religious minorities, without any reasonable doubt.[1][11][12]

To continue to deny this is to be complicit in these atrocities.

I say this not in anger, but in truth and grief. My stated assignment from my host was to speak the truth and I have done that to the best of my ability.

I believe Nigeria has a bright future. I believe in Christian-Muslim harmony. I believe good people of every tribe and faith must stand against this evil. But first, we must name it.

Here I stand. I can do no other. So help me God.

Wearing hijab to a school that conflicts with the uniform dress code of the school is religious intolerance. The idea of a uniform dress code for every student is for the purpose of administrative order, wearing hijab to such a school will attract bias from both fellow students and teachers, if the school uniform of the students is white and blue, and one student decides to wear Red and blue because the parents are marine spirit worshippers, it goes against the rules and regulations of that school,

The most dangerous terrorist organization in the world today is the Fulani herdsmen, though the Nigerian government, out of complicity, has refused to acknowledge this obvious fact, the Tinubu regime doesn't care less, because the terrorist activities of these herdsmen does not affect his political ambitions.

What business has government spending hard earned tax payers money on people performing their religious obligations, you can spend over 300k on what we all know does not add any economic value to our economy, but you can't pay workers 100k
