Your people went to another man's land to commit crime of kidnap, identity theft and forced religion on them....you do not find the spirit to condemn the criminals, you are blaming Yoruba. There is no devil more visible than Ibo on this matter.


No. They are well fed better than how their parents take care of them. We are just helping the North take care of their kids. Beside we have shown them the only true religion so why should we condemned it. We don't believe they are even Kidnapped. We igbos are kind-hearted. The emir knows better, let's interview this so called criminals to make sure it's not the parent that willingly donate their children. grin grin grin grin

Now I believe the saying that your tribe are illegal immigrants to Nigeria... We are talking about president that have the final say and you are here ranting about a prime minister that goes away all time to deliver his masters message, don't forget who was Nigerian last governor General before even the independence.

All the criminals you mentioned none was elected by the Nigerian people.. Go back to Guinea.


Keep on disgracing yourself in a public forum. You earlier thought am from Southwest just like that, then realize you're messing with the wrong guy.

All I want you to understand is you have no say in who becomes the President. Whether you support sunusi as the only Muslim or Northerner you can vote for or any other person, it makes no difference. Like who cares.

Your vote or opinion are inconsequential. If you support a stone, the stone will still lose.

Ok. I think I understand you. Your expectation would have been for him to subscribe to the extreme version of condemning the act... Maybe in the similitude of Ganduje's "death penalty" ko?

Not necessarily how Ganduje did. But at least he can say I sympathize with the families of these children. We will make sure they get rehabilitated and continue with their studies.

For the Kidnappers we will make sure Justice is done. Then from then he can move on to speak on roles of parents on protecting their kids. These kids are not beggers as he is putting it. From his statements one can claim they got abducted while begging on the street.

Well, if nothing, I should doff my hat to you for reacting to my comment without bile.

It seems you don't understand what your Emir is saying. He's talking generally about child negligence, which is prevalent within the Hausa tribe. Please try to read between the lines. He even said that some people will misconstrue his opinion in which you are guilty. Go to Lagos and the western part of the country, you will see them in number. Child abuse. Sending children out d street for begging on your behalf. In the 1st instance, why did you bring them into this earth if u know u cant cater for them. Its a sin. The kidnappers will definitely face the wrath of the law for there own path.


It's rather you that did not understand me. I am not misinterpreting him neither misconstruing him. I clearly know what I am saying. I would agry with him if he is giving lectures on how to curb Kidnapping in the North.

But here we are talking of kids that were Kidnapped on their way back from school who have nothing to do begging brouhaha. Instead of blaming the Kidnappers, you start with the victims. And an emir for that matter, who is a supposed defender of his people.

You deserved an accolades for this comment. Sanusi is getting old and old that old age is affecting him. Has he taken time to find out the backgrounds of the nine abducted kids and the manners in which they were abducted? No. He was just assuming that they had to be almajris.

He just assumed. Why find out when he is acting to be someone who knows everything.


That's not funny, coming from a man who was almost dethroned for embezzlement of billions of naira that would have conveniently turned the lives of these same street kids around. Everyone is a hypocrite in Nigeria

A lot of people are not happy with what the Emir said and are misinterpreting his message .
The Emir isn't making any case for the kidnappers ,they are guilty as charged and should be treated as such, sanusi is only saying this because of the verbal attacks that have been metted out on the entire igbo tribe because of this.with no blame going towards the parents for negligence.
Remember that idiotic northern "leader" who claimed that it was igbos that distabilized the North with kidnapping ,this message is for idiots like that man ,who will now want to blame their entire failures on the igbo tribe .


It's not misinterpretation. Going by your submission, why must he start with this. He should first condemned strongly the Kidnappers. Then we will come to what he pointed out above.

Well from my viewpoint you and the emir have different sources of information to form the basis of discussion. But since the emir i know, and you i dont, i Stan with the Emir.

Then your point of view is not valid. You are just assuming.

Based on his submission i will summarise for you, kidnappings of minors happen in the north mainly because the kids are neglected to beg (there is no lie in that). Last time i checked, beggers dont go to school or do you guys have school for the beggers up there?

None of the 9 kids were Almajiri. Get your fact right. Go and read the thread on their abduction first before you conclude. Mostly they were coming back from school.

2ndly kidnapping today happen accros the country. Its not unique to any tribe. Its not something to overly play tribal cards on. I once knew a boy who went to write jamb and woke up in Ghana. One person saw him walking aimlessly and managed to get his parents number luckily from him. His parents couldn't care less if the perpetrators were Yoruba, igbo, Hausa, or even Ghanian.

Agreed.

3rdly, based on his submission, you can INFER that he condemed the act of kidnapping. (Check paragraph 10). He was however focused on the apparent root cause "negligence" and not just the symptom "kidnapping" (which happens everywhere today)

He did not condemned the Kidnappers and that's where I am interested in.

before you reply, my argument is based on the premise of the emir, who the last time i checked, is one of the most knowledgeable person in this country*

That's what you're meant to believe. Being vocal isn't form of knowledge. Same mentality of the emir makes him think he knows better than anyone.

Bros,you dont know lamido Sanusi enough. The man is the No.1 hypocrite. He is as usual playing to the galery. This is a man that riles about the level of poverty in his area, yet rides in a roll royce - even the money wasted to refurbish the car would have lifted dozens of people out of poverty. He's also accused of blowing the billions of naira kept in deposit accounts by his prudent predecessor. The hypocrite is praising Igbo kidnappers and blaming victims - doesn't he need psychiatric assessment? He is a liar too by saying the children were left begging in the street - this is a most humongous lie, even though coming from a certified hypocrite.

I know him very well. He doesn't even know his function as an accidental emir. You defend your subject before anything else. Let him keep the turban and contest for governor so that he will finally test his popularity and not hiding behind being an emir.


Oya kia-kia Igbo kidnappers, abductors and evangelists head en mass for kano, your accomplice Sanusi lamido Sanusi, who occupies the office of the Emir, has given you the nod to come and empty the city of its children! Of course you criminals should know that it's only poor children you will be able to pounce on, the children of the rich are secured in the GRAs behind gated fences. Sanusi, though your accomplice, but know that his own children are schooling abroad.

Who allows their children to roam all over the streets begging? Hausa
Who allows their children to be almajiri? Hausa
Who allows their children to be chained and maltreated by insane scholars? Hausa

I don't know why people hate the truth.

Children roaming the streets for begging are prone for such
The almajiris can be lured or kidnapped without much difficult resistance.


Emir Sanusi hit it right. The parents are to be blame period.


Better get it in to your skull. They are not Almajiri children. They were Kidnapped on their way back from school.

Emir Sanusi did not absolve the Ibo kidnappers of this crime. He is attempting first to raise awareness and self accountability....that is, criminals will always be around looking for vulnerabilities to exploit, the parents left their children open to for exploitation....he wants to teach a few a hard lesson so others can learn from it. He narrated painful outcomes in similar instances when playful toddlers accidentaly fall into wells because they were left unattended.


I believe Sanusi took this coronation to add to his resume and to go down history as an Emir of Kano. I wont be surprised he abdicates his throne to run for State Governor in future. His style of ruling and aspirations for a better society is altruistic but in modern days monarchs do not have power to execute the kind of social evolution Sanusi has been lecturing about....that power belongs with a Governor.


I will be glad if he decided to contest for the governor.

I strongly believed that Emir know the true nature of the story until I hear from the so called kidnappers that take children off the street, clothing them, feeding them and change there religion it really hard to believe they are kiddnappers. Allowed newsmen get access to so called kidnappers because tribalism and sentiment engulfed this country that we are fast condemning people of other tribe without hearing from their on side of story , I'm not saying they aren't kiddnappers but let Nigeria hear from them. What I'm trying to said I know igbo people they are so kindhearted especially when it come to see little children roaming on street but I know there is bad people among them too.



So I see. They are not Kidnapper, they just like helping northerners and that's why they abduct them.

If you abandon your child on the streets to be taken care of by strangers and that stranger decided to take your child home to give them a proper bath and good food, then why are you (the parents) angry because your child is given a better treatment?

Is that not the plan all along. Or are the parents angry they aren't making cash returns anymore from their begging.

You sound like one of those people that peddle hatred. Every issue is looked at from the negative side. An innocent advice by an emir to his people is used to propagate hatred on the Emir. He even absolved the igbos and blamed his people instead. Maybe you would have been happier if he condemn the igbos and absolved his people. Maybe you would be happier if the Kano state indigenes blame igbos for abducting their children and start attacking igbos in kano

So you're now happy because he blamed the victims. grin grin grin That's what I earlier said he is giving you the abductors an upper hand.


What are you talking about here? Maybe you are responding to another thread. In this particular thread, the Emir was responding to children abducted in Kano and found in Onitsha.

Ofcourse I am talking on that. Those kids were abducted on their way back from school. It's rather you and the ignorant emir that did not read the news on the Kano 9 that are responding in such a way.


As an Emir, you want him to stop the abduction and charge the accused to court? How? What powers does he have to do that?

Or he only has power to jail the victims. I see. He was only sitting on the sit to fed on Kano resources.


Where did you get the information that the children were abducted together or individuallyon their way to school? 3 to 5 years old going to school in kano? I thought you guys always insults the northerners for not sending children to school and turning them into almajiris? So now they all go to school?

Shut up. Who told you am a southerner. I started playgroup one when I was just 3 years in same north. It's you guys that are insulting the northerners.

If is abroad (USA or UK), it's the parents fault. The police would blame the parent because it's the parents responsibility to ensure the child gets to and from school safely. Social services might even take away the child from the parent due to negligence.
When Madeleine Beth McCann was abducted in Portugal 12 years ago, the parents were arrested by the British Police. Although they were later released due to public outcry, the girl was never found.


First it wasn't abroad (we are in Nigeria) and secondly you're lying. The police will first look at the circumstances before blaming the parents. And the police wouldn't turn face from the real criminal abductors to the parent at first instance.

[s]
That's what Emir sanusi has been trying to do. He wants to change the mindset of the average Hausa fulani. He preaches against the almajiris system, he advocates for the education of children, especially the girl child, he preaches against giving birth to children you can't take care of. All these have put him in conflict with the powers that be in the Conservative north.
Here is just 1; [/s]

Somebody sent his child to school along the line some unscrupulous elements abducted the child, transformed the child into something else, give him/her a new name and change his religion from Islam to Christianity.

After police rescued children, as a leader you did not share the grievance with parents, neither condemned the act, but all of a sudden you want to jail the parents when you have not jailed the Kidnappers.

As a leader you should try to stop the abduction first, charge the accused to court before you talk about the victims share of blame.

Where on earth did you got the information that these 9 kids were Kidnapped while begging on the street? Some were Kidnapped alongside with their mother, they later released the mother and left with the children. Can you call all these as an act of neglect

A child was on his way back home from school and he was abducted & someone tells me it is the parents fault.

Besides, these kidnappings weren't just random, they were well planned and organised. Instead of blaming the victims of this atrocious act, you're blame the community. This is like blaming a rape victim. Just because u are privileged to be a leader by an accident of birth doesn't give u the right to speak so arrogantly.

Indirectly he is giving the abductors an upper hand, because there is not a single sentence where he criminalised the abductors but he criminalised the victims.

I need someone to help me point out a single statement in the entire write-up where the accidental emir condemned the abductors.

*Just 1 is ok*

Politics / Sanusi: Parents Of Kano Abducted Children Deserve To Be Jailed For Negligence by FriendNG: 2:40am On Nov 10, 2019
The emir of Kano, Muhammadu Sanusi II, on Saturday advocated for jail term for the parents of kidnapped Kano children for neglecting their children to roam aimlessly in the street.

On October 12, the Kano Police Command announced the rescue nine children kidnapped in Kano and trafficked to Onitsha in Anambra State.

The abduction of the children had sparked public outcry, with the presidency, Jama’atu Nasrul Islam, Christian Association of Nigeria, rights groups, among others condemning the act and Kano State Government setting a panel of inquiry on the matter.

Speaking in his palace during the 2019 Public Campaign Against Drug Abuse organised by League for Societal Protection Against Drug Abuse, LESPADA, the emir said the parents deserved to be charged by the police for criminal negligence.

“On the issue of abducted Kano children, I have been speaking with Obi of Onitsha on the issue. We are keeping track on the issue.

“We heard all manner of outrage against the Igbos that our children were stolen. Did the Igbo kidnappers entered into your house to abduct the child? Or, did you allow your child to roam in the street aimlessly? We must tell ourselves the truth. When the first parents reported the case of their missing children to me, I said, had I got the powers I have sent the parents to jail.

“I even directed that the commissioner of police should be asked if we have any law called criminal negligence. Don’t we have such a law? Whoever comes to report abduction of his 4-year-old child while playing deserves to be jailed. Criminal negligence!

“Hausa man must change his thinking. We will always apportion blame on Igbos, Yoruba, when it is actually our fault.

“Now, make attempt to abduct a child in Onitsha and see if you will find one available. Is this not true? Do they leave their 3 to 4-year-old children roaming in the street begging?

“If you can’t feed your family, don’t send your child to beg on your behalf. If we continue to live in self-denial, we will live to cry, shifting blame.

“I am not saying others are not guilty, I know tomorrow people will start saying I am blaming parents for abduction of their children. I know my statement is always misconstrued. I did not say they are not guilty, but Hausa man himself observed in a proverb that ‘if the fly is stubborn, the candy is sweet’,” the emir said.

The monarch further observed that the Hausas show negligence to their family, saying cases of children drowning in well are linked to absence of showing love to family.

“A man will marry a woman without showing her love. A man will father a son or daughter without showing them love.

“That is why Hausa man is the one who abandons his child… As I have always said, the palace courtiers will bear me witness, there are cases presented before us that a 3 or 4-year-old child fell into a well.

“To leave a 2 to 3-year-old child at home with an open well and go to mosque… In my understanding, you killed your child. But you will be crying, and people will be consoling you. If you really love the child why will you allow him to play near a well?

“How did the child fall into the well? [You will hear tales like] He (father) went to farm, the wife went out… You left an open well when you have a 3 or 4-year-old child and left him to play around the well. Only Hausa man will do this in the whole country,” the emir added.
