If this is true....we need to push this to social media until it gets to the right authority. We need to stem all this type of nonsense...... People are just making useless comments...... The fact remains that he attacked a Nigerian....and we need to hold him to account...immigration need to check the consequence of his action against his remaining stay in Nigeria... What does the law say about employers assaulting their workers physically and emotionally..... What labor laws are being broken by the company....All these need to be looked at...... Imagine if this was done by a Nigerian to a chinese man in china...do you think this is how it will be swept under the carpet. Please can anyone verify this story and lets push it to all social media platforms, twitter, facebook, instagram etc......this must not go under the carpet.....JUSTICE MUST BE DONE......haba we cannot be cheated in our own country by outsiders... if na hausa man do this kin thing to Ibo man....I know the kin rage we for they see.....SO WHY ARE WE NOT OUTRAGED BY THIS |
Copied and Pasted. The former Central Bank Governor, and Emir of Kano His Royal Highness Muhammadu Sanusi the second , surprised guests present at the Muson Centre for the launching of the book of Sir Olaniwun Ajayi. Below is his unedited speech. “Let me start by saying that I am Fulani (laughter). My grandfather was an Emir also fulani my uncle and guardian was also the immediate late Emir of Kano Alhaji Ado Bayero and therefore I represent all that has been talked about this afternoon. Sir Ajayi has written a book. And like all Nigerians of his generation, he has written in the language of his generation. “My grandfather was a Northerner, I am a Nigerian. The problem with this country is that in 2009, we speak in the language of 1953. Sir Olaniwun can be forgiven for the way he spoke, but I cannot forgive people of my generation speaking in that language. “Let us go into this issue because there are so many myths that are being bandied around. Before colonialism, there was nothing like Northern Nigeria, Before the Sokoto Jihad, there was nothing like the Sokoto caliphate. The man from Kano regard himself as bakane. The man from Zaria was bazazzage. The man from Katsina was bakatsine. The kingdoms were at war with each other. They were Hausas, they were Muslims, they were killing each other. “The Yoruba were Ijebu, Owo, Ijesha, Akoko, Egba. When did they become one? When did the North become one? You have the Sokoto Caliphate that brought every person from Adamawa to Sokoto and said it is one kingdom. They now said it was a Muslim North. “The Colonialists came, put that together and said it is now called the Northern Nigeria. Do you know what happened? Our grand fathers were able to transform to being Northerners. We have not been able to transform to being Nigerians. The fault is ours. Tell me, how many governors has South West produced after Awolowo that are role models of leadership? How many governors has the East produced like Nnamdi Azikiwe that can be role models of leadership? How Many governors in the Niger Delta are role models of leadership? Tell me. There is no evidence statistically that any part of this country has produced good leaders. You talk about Babangida and the problems of our economy. Who were the people in charge of the economy during Babangida era? Olu Falae, Kalu Idika Kalu. What state are they from in the North? “We started the banking reform; the first thing I heard was that in Urobo land, there will be a curse of the ancestors. I said they (ancestors) would not answer. They said why? I said how many factories did Ibru build in Urobo land? So, why will the ancestors of the Urobo people support her? “We talk ethnicity when it pleases us. It is hypocrisy. You said elections were rigged in 1959, Obasanjo and Maurice Iwu rigged election in 2007. Was it a Southern thing? It was not. “The problem is: everywhere in this country, there is one Hausa, Ibo, Yoruba and Itshekiri man whose concern is how to get his hands on the pile and how much he can steal. Whether it is in the military or in the civilian government, they sit down, they eat together. In fact, the constitution says there must be a minister from every state. “So, anybody that is still preaching that the problem of Nigeria is Yoruba or Hausa or Fulani, he does not love Nigeria . The problem with Nigeria is that a group of people from each and every ethnic tribe is very selfish. The poverty that is found in Maiduguri is even worse than any poverty that you find in any part of the South. The British came for 60 years and Sir Ajayi talked about few numbers of graduates in the North (two as at independence). What he did not say was that there was a documented policy of the British when they came that the Northerner should not be educated. It was documented. It was British colonial policy. I have the document. I have published articles on it. That if you educate the Northerner you will produce progressive Muslim intellectuals of the type we have in Egypt and India. So, do not educate them. It was documented. And you say they love us (North) more than the south. “I have spent the better part of my life to fight and Dr. (Reuben) Abati knows it. Yes, my grandfather was an Emir. Why was I in the pro-democracy movement fighting for June 12? Is (Moshood) Abiola from Kano ? Why am I a founding director of the Kudirat Initiative for Nigerian Development (KIND)? “There are good Yoruba people, good Igbo people, good Fulani people, good Nigerians and there are bad people everywhere. That is the truth. “Stop talking about dividing Nigeria because we are not the most populous country in the world. We have all the resources that make it easy to make one united great Nigeria . It is better if we are united than to divide it. “Every time you talk about division, when you restructure, do you know what will happen? In Delta Area, the people in Warri will say Agbor, you don’t have oil. When was the Niger Delta constructed as a political entity? Ten years ago, the Itshekiris were fighting the Urobos. Isn’t that what was happening? Now they have become Niger Delta because they have found oil. After, it will be, if you do not have oil in your village then you cannot share our resources. “There is no country in the world where resources are found in everybody’s hamlet. But people have leaders and they said if you have this geography and if we are one state, then we have a responsibility for making sure that the people who belong to this country have a good nature. “So, why don’t you talk about; we don’t have infrastructure, we don’t have education, we don’t have health. We are still talking about Fulani. Is it the Fulani cattle rearer or is anybody saying there is no poverty among the Fulani?”, he said. LESSONS FROM THIS MESSAGE Tribalism is not our problem. Tribalism and religion are artificial problems created by selfish leaders for their own personal interest. There are only two major tribes in Nigeria. The Elites and the Masses. Once you make lots of money, you belong to the elite tribe. When you are a commoner or suffering, you belong to the tribe of the masses. If you are an elite, and you need more power, or elective position, you sow seeds of tribalism and religion among the masses, so as to sway their emotion for your personal victory. This happens at both the national and state level. Unfortunately, after the election when they have won and joined their “sworn enemies” to drink and party, the gullible masses continue to fight each other. Even smart people who belong to the masses, sometimes will sow seeds of tribalism and religion among the masses, and then the masses will carry them up until they belong to the elite class. It is a classic strategy used over 3000 years ago in the art of war. A commoner who aspires to sit with the elites, could stir up powerful tribal or religious sentiments, such wave if properly utilized either by shedding blood or destabilizing the elites, carries the commoner to the elite class. But once there, he immediately mingles and makes peace with the elite tribe, and turn his back on the same masses that helped him get there. Youths are the worst victim of this powerplay, they kill each other, call other tribes unprintable names, do terrible things and sometimes, even lose their life, thinking they are fighting for their right, not knowing that they are fighting for the personal welfare of someone, whose own children are probably safe in America or London. So youths, don’t hope on the government. If you don’t have a job, create one. There is abject poverty in the south as well as the north, whether Ogoni or Maidugri. At the same time, there is massive wealth in Lagos, Onitsha, Nnewi, Aba, Kano, Abuja, irrespective of zone. Whatever your hand finds to do, do it well and never remain idle. No job is too low for an idle hand, or else the devil will find work for you. As you become independent, and grow your capacity, do not lose hope in Nigeria. We are the largest economy in Africa and soon the world will fear us. Western powers, don’t like b ig economies that threaten them, America will do anything to break China, but China is wise to resist that. China has 1.6 billion people, we have only 170 million, and we are talking of breaking. China has 5 major religions which are Buddhism, Confucianism, Taoism, Islam and Christianity. Nigeria has only 2 major religions, Christianity and Islam. Yet we claim that religion is our problem. America, the strongest economy is comprised of every tribe in the world, since they accept anybody from any part of the world. Yet they are united and extremely patriotic. Nigeria has only 3 major tribes, and we claim tribalism. Think clearly and deeply, and you will realize that empowering yourself is the best course of action, not fighting each other. And once the youths are empowered, they can begin to take back their future from the hands of the old and corrupt generation that has been blinding Nigerians with hatred, while looting all her resources. Sani Abacha’s loot is still stashed away in Switzerland, did he use it to develop the north? Those that stole billions under GEJ stashed it away in foreign banks, bought expensive toys, jets and foreign homes, are they using it to develop the south? Now the ones stealing currently, including the “grasscutters”, are looking for Ikoyi apartments, abandoned houses, and pit toilets to hide it, are they using it for the youths in their tribe? NO! Youths shine your eyes ! Don’t always fall for this tribal, religious sentiments over and over again. Nigeria is bigger than these corrupt elites. They are the problem, not the poor masses. |
Mayflowa:What are you saying...that security post had no shielding what so ever, the two officers that died first where hit by AK47 bullets that penetrated the wall when that first robber opened fire on the security post. The gallant officer bailed from there because he knew the post offered no protection and he would be cornered there.. |
ivolt:The part that struck me was "NEEDY".... So to all those Slay queens that are always in need of something....kindly know that you are a broke ass slay queen |
Finally sense is gradually being restored... |
Forming slay queen now...later she go turn old hag with slippers boobs |
This like watching ajepako vs butty match.... |
These guys can't even string passes together....want training have they being doing. Their final balls is pure nonsense.....see how southafrica just destroy our defence... |
why are our guys playing like its a friendly...so uninteresting...now south africa don score....how dem go do now |
Its funny how Atiku Abubakar, has been silent on all this issue, ranging from herdsmen to Ipob to quit notice... Meanwhile them no go let us hear word on 2019 election.... This is the time to tell us where you stand on issues affecting us, dont need to wait for 2019 |
jamislaw:What is wrong with you, will you stop this nonsense.....Bible says blessed are the peace makers.... You just here trying to tribalism the whole issues adding fuel to fire....Even worse on an issue you do not even have full concrete proof about. Remember freedom of speech is guaranteed, but freedom after speech is not.....if you are arrested for inciting violence will you be able to defend yourself in court.......Think before you type |
kennygee:In this bokoharam days....how would the soldier know if the guy did not have an iED on his person. You are ordered to stop by a security personal in a military zone which also happens to be a school, now rather than obey you are now advancing towards the soldier...... Is that not just asking for trouble..... |
what is there to be happy about, this one na sickness... |
Why cant this old men that ruined Nigeria just shut up.....Just see what he is trying to do..... From what he has said....the North needs Nigeria, He is insinuating also that half the population of Nigeria is Northerners, big census lie Now he is trying to pit Igbos against Yoruba's , saying they are not to be trusted and that they are the problem. THIS MAN IS DEVILISH |
IdeyFindWife:What is all this nonsense talk you all keep saying.....this is not school or a Hollywood gangsta movie. This is real life and you all need to grow up and be responsible. if you do the crime be prepared to do the time and take all the shit/disgrace that comes with it. Its should serve as a lesson to others to stay humble, stay honest and work for what you want honestly. I pity the current generation that are busy forming gangsta all over the place....LIFE IS GOING TO TEACH YOU GUYS A BIG LESSON |
Messi is a team player and goes extra mile to add bite to the team.....he simultaneously plays central midfield, striker, supporting striker and winger......He is always trying to push the team forward. Ronaldo is a team player too....but he is only interested in scoring goals.....he plays as a striker and hangs around the final half. In summary On a day when Madrid is not functional, Ronald will most likely be no where to be found When Ronaldo is not functional, madrid will still play well On a day when Barca is not functional, Messi will still play well and probably win it for them When Messi is not functional, Barca may not play well. My question, what do you think will be the result if Ronaldo and Messi swap teams |
These Fulani herdsmen guys are just jokers.....If we all begin to quote our historical locations, then we will all have a big issue in our hand. This is present day Nigeria and they need to change with the times....they cannot keep holding on to the past and expect Nigeria to keep accommodating rubbish......Change is a constant thing in life and they need to embrace it. |
YelloweWest:Finally someone that understands the issue at hand....Just when i was about to give up on Nigerian youths...God bless you |
Why do Nigerians like talking authoritatively about stuff they don't know.... To all those shouting that he falsified his age check the links below..... https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=SkctVBAO9IM https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=nWVHA1yfGac |
Am i the only one seeing this.....IS AY USING LIPSTICK |
Davidson5:Bros...you do well....You see while this text book solution might be true for other countries....This will not work here... The mentality of Nigerians is that coins are too much of a burden to carry....We have generations of Nigerians that have never used coins and will simply see it as a burden. This same policy was what led to the disappearance of 50k and 1Naira....these two currencies used to be paper notes and there were products that we used to purchase at these prices.....immediately they were converted to coins.....retailers started rounding up the cost of their goods. And people including banks even stopped collecting them for payment....this resulted in inflation. Don't you wonder why we do not have goods priced like 52naira or N10:50k.....Because our people do not want coin payment. I can bet you if you convert, 10, 20, 50, 100 Naira to coins that will be the end of them. Nigeria is a unique country and it requires unique solutions, not text book bullshit..... |
henryanna36:How many people do you see in that picture, so how does that amount to Kaduna people...The residents of kaduna are in their millions, so how does a few hundred amount to Kaduna people........All this sensationalized news |
Never knew women where for sale......Abeg madam how much.... So na buy we dey buy women now......Later when them begin dey use them like property dem go dey shout for social media..... |
What is this country turning into............ |
What is all the noise about.....Have Nigerians forgotten how to fight for their right.... Is Ethiopian airline the only airline in the world....if they are given you poo treatment, simply boycott them.. By the time they see drop in profit on the Naija route, they will give themselves brain.... |
I have only one question, what right those a broke human being have to criticize another human being for been broke.... All these ladies here shouting yes, yes, how much do they have..... You no get money, yet you dey open mouth say someone else broke Pure trash.....Get your own money then you can talk bullshit.....else shut the f up cause you are no better... |
Sometimes I wander how some of these things came to be...... Meanwhile to all those shouting black man this, black man that..... even the white mans roman catholic church used to scourge themselves with a whip as a means of atonement.... |
Oladimejyy:Which kin generosity....Is he spending his money....Or constituency allowance.... And why is it, it is when he got suspended that he remembered he has constituents..... Has he spoken to his constituents to find out what their challenges are and what would drive development and improvements in the lives of his constituents....People think being a politician is a beer parlor job...... We need serious minded people, capacity builders, society builders not all this jokers...... Abeg all this na just drama and wash..... |
So this is what is celebrated now.............what rubbish......this is just indecent, plain and simple. |
money121:We go call, we still dey find the money |
i always knew that most of these nairaland handles actually belonged to women just pretending to be men online....Wash ko, fry ni... |
