At last, one Igbo man ruled by sense and not blind emotions.

Tolexander:
what has kept him so long to do that?

Baba hold up!

Due diligence - the matter was complex and steeped in controversy; it would have been wrong to rush and prematurely sack a man who might have been innocent.

Officialgarri:
I'm for Buhari but this Ruga settlement is unacceptable.

I mean, the rumors of islamization can be true after all. This is how they gradually penetrate territories and strike from within when Jihad comes.

We have decayed to a fault that we from different ethnic background can no longer live together in harmony for long. The situation is beyond redemption already.

North has the largest land mass, they should stick to their territory.

I bet you didn't bother to even read the article otherwise you wouldn't have made that statement; apparently you just simply couldn't wait to expose your bigotry.

For the benefit of those who similarly didn't read the article, pls note that the RUGA scheme is completely voluntary; interested state government would have to apply and indicate interest.

So far the pilot programme is confined to 11 northern states (who must have already indicated their interest); the FG is not planning to impose the RUGA scheme on southern states or any other state opposed to to it - though I am confident, many who are currently rejecting it now would later be begging to be included when they eventually realise the accrual benefits of the scheme.

I watched the video carefully and did not note any Fulani man, woman or child; but their herd of cows being chased away along the highway by an army of sticks and machete wielding local Igbo natives.

Some ppl may not see anything wrong with this and may even condone it;however, it is a violation of the constitution which guarantees the right to freedom of movement and association of every citizen to move and lawfully settle anywhere in Nigeria.

Those condoning this action now, may be setting a precedence which they themselves may later come to reap: it may not be inconceivable if one day Igbos should wake up and find themselves similarly being chased out of northern communities; for fear that their kinsmen may endangering the ppl through pushing of fake medicinal drugs as well as illicit drugs etc.

As can be seen from the video, the Fulani were completely separated from their cattle, the consequence of which could easily lead to loss of a significant number of them, either through outright theft or abandonment.

The community may now be feeling it had solved its immediate problem with the Fulani; but may in actuality have contracted a longer term and more deadlier threat of reprisals, in the cold of the night when they feel comfortable in their sleep.

Community leaders should have invited to police to come and handled the matter rather than taking the law into their hands, as they did.

ararumeteam:
SE, SS regions have been sidelined from getting federal government Fulani zone called RUGA.

The regions that voted Buhari in 2019 have been listed to benefit from this RUGA Fulani camp in their region.

All the states in SW with the exception of Lagos have been listed to get RUGA Fulani village.

Other regions are NW, NE,NC. while SE and S will not be having RUGA sited in their region because they refused to vote Buhari in 2019 election.

@:OP
What do you hope gain by spreading this FAKE NEWS - an obviously illogical news without any credible source?
By God's grace, you and your ilk shall continue to reap the hatred and mischief you are sowing between Nigerians - pls answer Amen.

Nepotism: When will Buhari stop appointing his Fulani Blodas from the SE?

adem30:
If he was not apprehended, Fulani herdsmen would have be the suspect

Yes indeed; they would use the word 'SUSPECTED' to indemnify themselves from wrongful accusation.

uckennety:
I wanted to ignore you but am forced to reply

Are igbos restricted to your south east only?

So there are no igbos in Middle-belt and your artificial south south region?
Answer this then I'll believe you will get your answer about resources
Finally is your south east barren it has no resources?
Answer that?

Assuming you go to another country with a tourist visa and your not allowed to work and you even sold your fathers land to make that movement

Will you go there and won't sneak around like a rat that your imposed government has turn you into?

Please answer

Anambra benefitted my ass!

You guys go google to put anything you want saying anambra

Don't make me angry ooooooooo

As I v excepted the 'rat' tag lemme be

Show me how many hausa/fulani youth that went to university that is unemployed

Come to your south south and south east n see millions
Our girls have now turned to prostitutes just like in the civil war so that they can survive

Your president that rigged himself to power says that having a degree is not a ticket to a job

I wonder what is

You have bastardized education

Every morning I ask myself why am I a Nigerian?
What are the benefits of being a Nigerians

Some countries benefits are security and justice we don't v it

Some countries have good health care and some extend it to free
We don't v it

Some countries boost of electricity
We don't v it

Some boost of good diplomatic relationships with other countries
We don't v it that's why visa is harder than death in this country

Some boast of good roads
We don't v it

Some boast of good education that one we can never have it as both government and lecturers sent their children aboard to study

Yet your asking why we are chased like rats

I don't want to burden the Yoruba's with this matter because although the champion the northern cause, they are still codedly enjoying the woes of being Nigerians

But Yoruba's and igbo are killed and chased as if they are rats outside Nigeria

But have you seen or heard about a hausa/fulani experience such
I guess not

Your rubbish posted above doesn't change the assumption that as an igbo am a 3rd class citizen and that we are still experiencing the Hunger blockade of the civil war if you want to still argue tell me why are no functioning seaport in Calabar,warri,akwaibom ,and anambra only Lagos and Lagos

Why are there no youth employment

Why is their marginalization after you v balkanized the igbo land

Oga don't let me blow your ass open,let the world know because I hope you know internet never forgets

I thought I'd see a more intelligent response but all I could deduce was illogicality, ignorance and even a coded justification for the very criminality that is increasingly getting your ppl in trouble abroad.

Why would you sell your father's land and travel abroad on a tourist visa knowing fully well that you had no intention of going their as a tourist or abiding by the laws of the land, including the restrictions on that tourist visa?
I guess it will never occur to you in your mindset to see that such act is a crime and that selling your father's land (or otherwise coming up with enough money to travel out) does not give you immunity against the laws of (your own or) any foreign country; and in consequence when the authorities or the citizens take reprisal actions you, you would have no justification to cry persecution, marginalisation or blame anybody for your action.
Ghana, for example placed a $200,000 minimum capital restriction on the businesses a foreigner may engage (to protect its own citizens) but many of your Blodas were not only flagrantly flouting it but also engaging in criminal activities (drug pushing, kidnapping, robbery, fake products etc) to the detriment of Ghanaians - yet you had the audacity to blame northerners for the woes your ppl attracted to themselves.

I was obliged to ask you what resources of the SE after you alleged that northerners were dining on your resources to the detriment of your ppl - a question you are yet to answer (note I asked for the contribution of the SE because your allegation was also against my region).

You keep ignorantly referring to google as if it were the only and an exclusive archive of credible information seemingly without the realisation of its limitations as a mere search engine with no means or capacity for authenticating what is false or true.

Much as I would like to respond to your litany of wailing, ranging from jobs, education to the bastardisation of this country; unfortunately I do not have the time nor the energy.

However, I would like to indulge you with your favourite search engine, google, and request you do a search for two things:

1. Name of the founding father of this nation who successfully blocked insertion of an opting out clause in our constitution that would have allowed a region to go it's separate way should it later decide to secede from One Nigeria.
2. The ppl responsible for derailing our nascent democracy and subsequently dismantling our former regional system and replacing it with the unitary one we have today.

If you can do that then you would found the persons and the region responsible for almost all the woes you were complaining about - guess what; it is not the north or the northerners you hate so much.

As for your self inflicted mental enslavement as 3rd class citizen; well we would be quite happy to allow you remain in your disillusionment as 3rd class citizens - we know how you guys love to play the victims.

uckennety:
you Northerner's v ignored the biased federal chacter

Jobs even google knows there are no jobs available for igbo apart from self enterpeurship
Without government support


Right all this long epistle doesn't still change it that the igbo are still experiencing hunger blockade which was endorsed by awolowo since the civil war


You didn't only send then to Ghana you sent them allover the world to look for scraps
While you dine on their resources

Stop the lies; when it comes to jobs the southern states always fare better; in fact a recent research by an NGO revealed how Anambra was the greatest beneficiary of Federal Government appointments (yet you ppl are the loudest wailers)
https://www.nairaland.com/1366414/anambra-biggest-beneficiary-federal-appointments

On the other issue of hunger in Igboland caused by ongoing blockade since the war - well that is so infantile and laughable that it is not worth responding to - perhaps to many of you the war is still ongoing and has not stopped.

LOL, if we were responsible for sending your Blodas all over the world; pls tell, whether we told them to also go out there and commit all sorts of crime, cause trouble and generally become nuisances to their host communities to the extent that they are hated, chased and even killed like rats?

Dining on what Igbo resources - in fact what does the SE region contribute?

Some of you actually believe your own propaganda - it's actually quite pathetic.

Only 18 years, so Igbo dey also marry young?

Most likely drug related.

Kai this nepotism must stop; Buhari has yet again appointed another of his Muslim Fulani Blodas from the north - Lord Lugard mus heaar about this.

The only evidence so far credited by the story was that the body of a dead woman was found after she must have been raped and killed; however, there was no other evidence at that time that could have been adduced to the identity of her killers; yet they quickly latched on to herdsmen, using the often abused pre-qualifier 'SUSPECTED' to lambast a tribe (Fulani) who could have been entirely innocent of the alleged crime (since anybody, including from her community could have killed her) and furthermore attacking innocent persons whose only crime was simply to share the same region with the alleged perpetrators. SMH.

Only an animal can be capable of selling own child

Developers at it again

uckennety:
My brother

Your so right

But it's unfortunate that as an igbo man
Am a 3rd class citizen in Nigeria

No rights for me here
No job either

So we hustle anywhere n everywhere

So if only you see Nigerians 1st class citizens I know you can't treat them this Way

All the restrictions you get from NIGERIAN is from the ruling northern elite that sees no need of you!

All that was banned from Ghana to Nigeria wasn't banned from Chad, Niger, and northern Cameroun,

so infact I don't know what to tell you

Why can't you ppl stop the lies; especially this false narrative of Igbo persecution and for once take responsibility for your actions?

Pls explain how northerners made Igbos 3rd class citizens in a free democratic country like Nigeria; how are northerners preventing them from acquiring jobs or in any way stopping them from exercising their constitutional rights - pls specify with evidence.

PLs tell me how were northerners responsible for the actions other Nigerians (majority of them Igbos) in another man's country, in this case, Ghana, where (according to the article) they were allegedly indulging in crime and other vices?

Pls tell me: did northerners sent them to Ghana or encouraged them to embrace crime or otherwise break Ghanaian law and conversely encouraged enraged Ghanaian citizens to target and attack them?

How could you in your right mind therefore shift the entire blame for your Blodas being chased like rats by Ghanaians to northerners - how is that logical?

BabaRamota1980:
True word.

Buhari should take example from Tinubu.

Before Tinubu a yanminri has never been even clerk in any administration cabinet. But the man appointed them commissioner. His successor also continued the tradition. How did they reward Tinubu and Fashola? With curses and complaints and wailings telling the govt its land is a no man's land.

Las las they frustrated Tinubu. He sent message out last election and he was not remorseful about it. He told yanminri what he thought of them.

Baba should be careful. You can never grace yanminri with pearls...he will thrash it like pigs do to adornments of beautiful pearls round their necks. The way he treated them for past 4yrs is what is best.

Im surprised they want to serve a Jubril from Sudan. Very surprised!

Indeed, nyamiri have schemed themselves out of political relevance in the Nigerian project; they should be given back only what they had been good at giving - insults and hatred.

If I were Buhari, this time around I would not give them even shi shi; except for the very minimum dictated by the constitution; because no matter what he does for them they wouldn't stop hating and insulting him - basically, they shouldn't expect to reap where they didn't sow nor should they be rewarded for their insolence and hatred.

EmekaBlue:
ofc ItsYouAboki what else

I guess that can only make sense to only an Nyamiri brain.

True talk my presido; the doubters can say what they like - none interference you said and none interference it shall be.

This one too done chop Atiku's money and clean mouth.

Only Atiku and his wailing supporters are yet to realise that the game is up; he has no chance in hell of overturning the immense gap of 4 million vote lead Buhari has over him - I guess lawyers must also chop.

As usual, half intelligent scamming their even more gullible followers.

Trouble dey sleep yanga go wake am - these ppl should already know what will likely follow.

Gossiplover:
As shared by Stefanos Fdn on Facebook.

Reports reaching us today, 16/3/19 says early this morning, residents of Angbok Nandu, in Sanga Local Government Area of Kaduna State were heavily attacked.

The attack, which took place around 2:30am was said to be carried out by people suspected to be Fulani militia. 8 people were killed, including a baby, many wounded and several houses and property destroyed. This situation has now left the village completely razed.

Heavy gunfire was said to be heard, which threw the whole community into pandemonium.

Southern Kaduna Christians have in the past weeks come under series of attack since the last pronouncement of governor El'rufai of Kaduna State on a purported attack on Fulani in Kajuru.

This is completely wrong and junk journalism, and further confirms allegations of bias reporting by our predominantly southern Christian owned and controlled media.

By referring to the Kajuru killings as purported and mere pronouncement by El Rufai is an indirect way of denying the said killings ever happened and an insult to the 132 Fulani murdered in cold blood by the local Christian militia.
Contrastingly, when the media reluctantly covered the Kajuru killings, not one body of the Fulani dead (officially 66 but in reality 132) was shown let alone as graphic as they are now doing for the Christian victims in these suspected reprisals.
It is his sort of attitude and lack of justice on both sides that encourages self help, where ppl lose hope and are forced to take the law into their own hands by way of reprisals -

rafhell:
Fear ab0kis

don't pay ransom, they will kill you

Abeg shut up; no una ppl sef infect dem with kidnapping.

Hmmnn, advanced educated ppl still holding on to primitive practices; yet they will call others backward - what hypocrites.
