Ride On Op, the foolish people trying to paint this awakening on igbos are scared, the middle belt people will rise up , ride on, ride on

Raheeqilmaktoom:
I am not quoting you for the fun of it, but to show obvious flaws in reasoning and planned actions.

You are telling me to keep shut on matters that concern my constituency, you want to say A should be this and B that, and we, should have no say.

By the time everything blows up, you will be in your eastern eldorado, watching from afar, even if your plans dont align, at least the north burns, which are both to you, wins.

Not on our watch.

there are no flaws on the purpose of this thread, the main point is the middle belt people of northern Nigeria will determine the fate of this country...it is simple facts, i would admit i do not fully understand the state of the relationship between the hausa and Fulani currently..my other points remain valid, a new order will emerge in this country someday or the current order will be consolidated, whichever way the pendulum swings, the middle belt people will be pivotal...

Raheeqilmaktoom:
Like I said, you keep repeating lies passed as information and basing your arguments on it.

Who stops hausas and other tribes from getting educated? Fulanis are even more guilty of this, yet you are here speaking about what you don't know.

please no need to quote me again, we do not need to argue coz i must admit u are more knowledgeable than i am in terms of happenings in your area...i really do appreciate your contributions to this thread...all the best boss

if you do not think that it is statecraft to limit education for people u conquered, then u do not know strategy.i am not saying this is something happening now as a plan but at some point in the past it was, whatever is happening now to redeem the suppression done in the past should be accelerated...this is just basic...

And yes there is also the possibility of me being shortsighted in my analysis, that is why i did not say anything deep, just basic stuffs

Raheeqilmaktoom:
1. And 3. Show an apparent lack of knowledge and information about reality on ground. You seem to be guzzling down propaganda in huge quantities with no questions asked.

2. Your problem is, you see fulani in every failure of yours. Who told you the fulanis control everything?

You guys lack information and exposure.

all i have said is very basic and demands common sense to comprehend, is it propaganda that ur region has the lowest level of education? Is it not also statecraft from some of your elites to keep it that way? I do not speak out of ignorance, it is just common sense that with more illetracy comes the risk of manipulation which may not be in your favor...
For example, in my region, due to rising illetracy, some people have been brainwashed to seek secession at all cost...this is common sense... common sense should also let u know that with more education amongst ur conquered folks, they will ask more questions, its now good management that will ensure the status quo is kept...

jumper524:
you can deceive political minions but not me. The hand stretched forward would only preserve you as per you how much you bring to the table.
I repeat how does being a Northerner hinder me from self presentation. Your trespassing and its for your selfish interest and you know it. Imagine me trying to create an identity disperancies in the race of every region.
You sure know there are many hidden minority tribes associated with your tribe. The south giving me a hand of friendship didn't recognizer their minority and they want to recognise me the new bride?
Common, this narrative is no longer selling again.
The North central is more than OK with identify with the north than any other region.

you are very wrong, there is no hegemony in the South, the yorubas are the largest, igbos second, then all other ethnicities are there, there is no discrepancies, the creation of states and collapse of the Igbo led eastern government ended that narrative...
As a middle belt person, you are in the middle of a power tussle, you cannot stand on your own because your region is too diverse to come together, you must lean on any of the power blocs, u must choose the lesser of the evils wisely, if you as a person choose to maintain the status quo, so be it... I'm sure the gbagyi people in nassrawa may have a different opinion, and if the majority is swayed, u have no other option... A new Nigeria will emerge someday, the direction the middle belt tilts towards will determine the fate of a new order

Raheeqilmaktoom:
Almost got flattered, but ethnicity maters the least to me and my likes.

but in reality it should matter, your people have to make swift changes....i wouldn't want to advise you but keeping the main people u conquered uneducated is no longer a viable means of consolidating ur power, u must accept that u can no longer have 100 percent control, you must share power with The H people , the Same way u manipulate them due to lack of education, it will only take smart propaganda to turn a faction of them against you...this is the reality coming...
I already see in parts of the NW where the H and F people are locked in bitter feuds, the more poor and uneducated they are, the more likely they are to be prone to manipulation, one day they will rise up to demand more equity

Raheeqilmaktoom:
For newer overlords? Once whose only ambition is power even at their own (so called indigenous) expense? Lol.

that is the truth, for new overlords, but new lords who will not gnaw on their lands and who have no past history or acrimony, with your last statement, power will change hands someday and we will be ready, we are too big to be not play a bigger role in this union... If your people are lucky to consolidate and retain power and keep expanding, so be it, that is the dynamics of life and geopolitics, you just never know what the future holds

BentizilL:
Ethnic and religious bigot like Obi will never be Nigeria president... We don't want a tribalist as our president..✅

please this thread is not for spewing stale campaign rhetoric

Raheeqilmaktoom:
People like me? 😂

Every argument who've made has been based on ethnicity but you are quick to turn around and blame it on somebody else?

Will you guys ever change? 😂

bro read very well, i said u have made "unbiased" contributions which i appreciate, it is people like you that can "reinvent"your ethnicity, you are very knowledgeable, i appreciate you boss

Raheeqilmaktoom:
A certain people make reference to ethnicity as the major basis for taking any decision and action. You know who.

why then do you make unbiased contributions to this thread, it is people like you that can reinvent your ethnicity , expansion in this modern age will backfire, domination in this modern age will back fire especially in a union with other powers in the waiting

Raheeqilmaktoom:
On NL and Twitter?

If you follow this platforms, you will be made to believe that hausas and fulanis are in an open battle for space.

no, it is common sense, for the areas that diversity is well managed, it still doesn't mean the indeginous people who have little say are 100 percent happy, they have only found a compromise, a new power and order which presents them a better deal will most certainly tempt them away from their current overlords

PAWG:
This statement of yours is why I’m against Biafra claiming any other state outside the SE; minorities would be dominated and eventually discriminated even worse than the current arrangement in the Nigerian state

. Yes i agree 100 percent, that is why i advocate for igbos to apologize to some SS people for the marginalization during the Biafra war, so we can chart a new course...

Raheeqilmaktoom:
It has never been about liberation, it's all about getting power from the 'fulanis' they're had to play third fiddle to since independence, and that power, for the sake of domineering like everything in their lives.

please what is your ethnicity?
It is also important to note that the people u mentioned are keen or holding unto power and expanding because of the history of how they became the major force in the region

Raheeqilmaktoom:
Major mistake, the north has never claimed homogenity, it's the most diverse zone in the country and save a few places, those diversities are well managed.

that is a good point you have made, self preservation will trump whatever association the core north has with other ethnicities, thanks to the current administration , these old wounds have been reopened

jumper524:
were northerners and just like every Northerner we face some sense of descrimination and acceptance at some point in time. Even the core northerners do face it. But come to reality, the middle belt have the worst leaders in Nigeria. No single state in the north central has an outstanding governor. The best amongst them are slightly below average.
This has nothing to do with the core North you want us to beleive are our enemy.
Unlike the south, the north don't politicise our plight to see us as brothers.
Bro I'm from abuj and I rep North with my full chest.

from Abuja, i guess you are gbagyi, while i respect your views, if self preservation is not an issue to you, your kin in other states will want to preserve their identity, and thus will always avail an opportunity to renegotiate the status quo...

PAWG:
It’s new to me, sincerely

the north is not homogeneous, there are lots of minorities who have been lumped with the dominant people there.

BentizilL:
Any middlebelt that include Kwara and West kogi is rubbish, any inch of Yorubaland will not be given away..

never, the yorubas will recover kwara ,that is a must it will only take a reshaping of the order in this country ,

PAWG:
Kaduna and Bauchi follow for middle belt? Interesting

the minorities of Kaduna and bauchi are included, that is why the post did not say North Central..

Raheeqilmaktoom:
What remains is for sokoto to be called an eastern state with this your map. 😂

while the tact of of your people to hold on power is commendable from a statecraft point of view, that power is shaky, every empire and order that is not well consolidated will collapse one day, you are in a union of people who will see to that, as long as democracy perseveres in Nigeria, anything is possible

jumper524:
jokers, try another political shipment. Im from the middle belt.

. What are your views regarding your region, I also understand a person from kogi or Benue may have less sympathy to the plight of Nok and other minorities up North..

frank14011991:
You are late to the party the north west, north east, some part of the north Central, south west and some part of the south south have already formed an alliance. The south east and some Christian religious bigots in the north can keep playing religious politics

I see

madscientist88:
most people are ignorant of the potential and unlimited resources of the middle belt,its pathetic,there is no region in Nigeria which lacks crude oil,its all politics, diamonds and other untapped minerals are all over the middle belt,but the politicians choose to keep this mute so they can loot in peace.the middle belt is self-sufficient but either ways its good to collaborate with people tho.

very true, it is the richest region in Nigeria if properly harnessed

EastAlchemist:
You think it’s a good one
Sadly there are just few of you
Cheers 🍻

Sure

Iamgrey5:
Which time in history have Niger, Adamawa and Bauchi in your middle belt map ever voted along with Christians.

And there's Yorubas in Kogi but you covered it entirely In your middle belt.

you should understand the heterogeneity of this region and dont expect every ethnicity to vote in same pattern irrespective of religion, and u also add rigging to the mix, this makes analysis election data harder...but from popular opinion, people in this region are tired of their overlords..
The yorubas in kogi belong to SW, there's no reason for them to be in middle belt, same way the yorubas in kwara belong to the rest of their people, Nigerian state maps must be redrawn to ensure cohesion, we cannot forgo our ethnic identity because of Nigeria, Nigeria can only thrive when the various ethnicities have self preservation and see a path of growth and development, this in turn ensures the Nigerian identity can coexist side by side with our various original identity

Penguin2:
Trust me, Tinubu BATstards are coming for your head.

please do not abuse them, i hope the SW people will see reasons to this and know that despite the divisise campaign politics, our interest in the South are aligned

EastAlchemist:
Yes , good finally
Wake up bark small and go back to sleep
As usual

It is a good sign nonetheless, look at LP performance in the region despite the rigging, this is something that can be harnessed, there is also the South Middle Belt forum, if only this momentum can be sustained

Many Middle Belt people will be a little worried about resource control, given the fact that the South is the economic powerhouse of the country, this is where negotiations come in, the economy of the region will continue to be funded till they can be independent...once this is solved, i do not see any reason why the middle belt should not ally with south, for restructuring, for redrawing of maps, the states of the country should be redrawn, people of similar ethnicities should be together, for cohesion...all the middle belt ethnicities will be together in different states, the core north with their own states and leave other people alone, ethnic cohesion is key to Nigeria's growth and development

The Middle Belt Region is the soul of Nigeria, largest Landmass and Population, it is time for the middle belt to wake up, the different ethnicities unite irrespective of religion, take back your lands, preserve your culture, no more domination, ally with the South, ally with the south

It is with Joy in my heart as i see the middle belt people of indeginous Northern Nigeria rising up to preserve their identity and breakaway from the domination of you know who...this will signal a new dawn and a change in order if this momentum is to continue, to my dear people of middle belt, ur invaders do not care about your religion as they continue to expand, an alliance with the South is your best bet, we must come together and reshape the Nigerian order... A New Nigeria is Possible with a South/Middle Belt alliance, i do not sincerely believe that The SW will abandon the rest of the south and MB to ally with the other people...
We move
