How North go take survive after
Biafra and Yoruba nation finally exist Nigeria
Like if you miss PDP
Share if you prefer APC

And who told you it isn't going to be the same suffering that will be had by your Biafrans and Yoruba nation if that were to happen? You think say the suffering una all dey face today go somehow all disappear then? I laugh! 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣

BeardedMeat:
We told buhari he'll not have a peaceful retirement because those that sow evil cannot reap good.

Nonsense! Did the report tell you that Buhari was in any way directly impacted by this event or any of the numerous others in Northern Nigeria, including Katsina? The man is spending his retirement safely tucked away by the many millions he took from your future and that of your unborn children. There is nothing like sowing evil and not reaping "good" in any of that for him.

ALTERNATEID:
Northerners kidnapping northerners to cause insecurity all because of politics. Smh.

That's pretty much the trend in all regions of the country.

Peakdesign23:
Both buhari and Tinubu showed Nigerians pepper.🌶️

The pepper started from Obasanjo, progressively worsened until APC showed up on the scene and mega cranked the blaze.

iwaeda:
The Tinubu administration is considering suspending tariffs on rice and other food commodities’ imports for 150 days to rein in hunger nationwide.
Presidential spokesman Bayo Onanuga told Peoples Gazette that a memo was already circulating across government departments, even though the policy was not imminent as of Monday evening.
The memo leaked online Monday to nationwide excitement, but the president’s spokesman said it was a regrettable error.
“The policy was mistakenly circulated,” Mr Onanuga told The Gazette by telephone Monday evening. “We are still deliberating internationally from the agric ministry to other agencies on how best to proceed with the policy.”
Mr Onanuga apologized for the error and said the government was not oblivious to its potential impact on longsuffering Nigerians.

Longsuffering Nigerians! 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣

Elsueno:
■ Lmfao 🤣🤣, U thought he knew?....stop giving that bros too much credit...I bet he thought he would seem cool & decisive when he just suddenly announce subsidy is gone. Despite having no single plan evident by how the economy is currently shrinking super fast plus the overwhelming inflation

I want to believe that he was aware of all of this before that initial blunder of his. No be the same APC him and the last administration came from?

jkpbestseries:
why not repair one refinery before removing subsidy

Dangote Refinery wey your government spend over $5 billion on is yet to go online. Not long ago, the man told you he has to source crude oil to refine in his refinery all the way from Texas, and all this thanks to a deal made during the last administration which Dangote also served as economic advisor to. Tinubu knew from even before he began that no single refinery would save Nigeria from this problem even before he removed the fuel subsidy.

■ ...you are now pretending like you don't knöw what is on Nairaland.. ..why didi you quote me..? ..what do you intend to acheive by singling out me.. ..i wonder why you are jerked up ny my comment..desist from using me as a selective Assessment.. ..Kobojunkie..mock Festival did not start with me...why quote only me..have you been reading the comments on Nairaland?..you feel the need to support your own & make me a scape ? ..stop the hypocrisy..you are warned about the " grow a brain" insults..i dare you to throw one again..but i will let this pass..

You are all just different sides of the same Racist/Bigotted coin, a virus of sorts which keeps tiny minds such as yours distracted from the major problems and goals that all Nigerians ought to be focused on instead.

I was here on Nairaland before you tiny-brained lot invaded the place; I said the same thing then that I am saying now but no one listened. Fast forward 12 years later, tiny-brained Nigerians still distract themselves from the major problems while their lives and futures are mortgaged away from the criminal class they call politicians. (Nigeria presents a scenario literally worse than that presented in the book, Animal Farms.) But here you lot are fighting over who's more bigoted of the tribes and you think I am hypocritical for pointing out how demented that is?🤔

PatrickOkunima:
Given the severe economic hardship Nigerians have been enduring since President Bola Tinubu assumed office, it is perplexing that anyone would have voted for him. Tinubu openly declared during his campaign that he would "continue from where Buhari stopped," despite the widely condemned impact of Buhari's policies on the nation's economy. This raises serious questions about the judgment of those who supported him and the APC. In fact, I think anyone who voted for Tinubu needs to get their head examined. What do you think?

Mind your business and stop creating these ridiculous attention-seeking threads all over the place!

The last thing Nigerians need are these many useless distractions which get the nowhere fast. There are real problems in the land and they are bigger and more important than your petty egos.

yarimo:
CNPP you guys are yet to condemn some lawmakers that defect to labour party in Abia state oo

The same thing happened in Abia State and not even the electorate called them out for what is unconstitutional and hence fraudulent? Why? I mean someone has to open a case on this to have these people immediately evicted like in the River's state case. These things are not automagically handled or addressed by the courts.

Ken4Christ:
The hunger is real. But the truth is that there is enough for everyone if those who have excesses can just share a little with the poor. The Church should lead by example. May God have mercy on us.

Abeg shattap there! Your churches refused to share with the poor and needy while all was well...na now dem go come share? Abeg go enter gutter somewhere with this nonsense!

kayusely70:
There must be a permanent solution to the herdsmen menace before it get out of hands!

So far, there has been little or no reports of resistance until this. It is almost like the people are comfortable working on eggshells around the Fulani herders. Not even a call from any group to boycott cattle and meat supplied by them. It just seems most Nigerians remain comfortably numb to all that is coming at them from even this menace.

alphaconde:
How do people who torment the government and country live their lives with so much freedom?
Such as this SIMON EKPA. I know he is in diaspora but we should have the resource to silence him.

Why ask such a strange question? Isn't that pretty much how your government has treated terrorists for the longest? Has your government completely silenced the local terrorists including the ones not far from its domot there in the North?

Tochi3:
......your amotekun brothers are at the mercy of the fulanis.. hands, toes and limps are being chopped off like suya.. ....& do the needeful & rellocate to your villages to save amu Token.. ..where are the cowwwss..

Grow a brain please! According to someone from the same state, the Fulani herder who cut off one of their comrade's hands was killed right there on the spot and nothing happened, this news is better than all the ridiculous wails I have heard from all parts of the country about how standing up to these herders who intentionally rob people of their lives and livelihood without apology would offend the delicate feelings of their attackers.

CyrusVI:
■ I used to think Atheists are logical thinkers, I never knew they are even more inhumane than anyone else As for the OP, this is bound to happen, and i hope the Amotekun guys get to chase the people completely out of all the SW forests At least, they are brave enough to attack them. Kudos to the man and i hope he gets good treatment

SW forest? Unless you line the borders of your every community with plants poisonous to cattle, I doubt you can get rid of them. And I don't know what is stopping farmers and communities who have suffered several losses from supposed Fulani herdsmen from doing just this. We are all aware that the herders bring their cattle through many of these communities to graze, so the logical thing would be to make the settlements not conducive for this particular activity.

AdeCityzen:
This fracas happened here in Ondo state in Sango road, Akure last week. Some Fulanis cow went to destroy a farmer tomatoes farm, the farmer called forces on them and the fulani negotiated to pay him 1m for damages but never did. The farmer called Amotekun and they went together, the Amotekun's seized their cows and are about to convey them away, then the fulanis speak to their cow to follow them. Naso wahala take burst, the herder that chop the amotekun man hand was killed immediately by the Amotekuns

He was killed? They killed him? Are the Amotekuns deputized police officers or what? I have yet to see any report of the incident that indicates the herder who inflicted harm on the Amotekun guy was killed. All the stories, including the video instead indicate that the Amotekuns ran from the scene. Can you please provide some sort of source to back up your claim?

Why didn't the forces who negotiated the supposed Naira 1 million cause the Fulani herders to pay up right there and then?

Chivisee:
This Fulani issue needs to be tackled urgently,Fulani killed 5 men and rape their wives in Enugu the other day,now look at what is happening again ??

Na mouth dem dey use tackle them? At least the Amotekun tried with their limited intelligence. (I can't for the life of me understand why they shot up in the air when their attackers were coming at them with weapons.)

Look, like the woman in the video said, these bandits mean the people harm and they will not stop until something is done, the people need to come up with ways to at least deter them from bringing their cattle down to the south and all affected areas. My thinking is that farmers begin to plant cattle-poisonous weeds(yes, there are actual weeds that can kill cattle which in Nigeria are pests that farmers would benefit from eliminating) alongside their crops to deter the herders from bringing their cattle down to their side. Farmers can plant these weeds along the very edges of their farms while warning local livestock farmers of the presence of these weeds. Cattle herders know most all of the weeds in Africa that are poisonous to their cattle and would want to keep them away from farms where the presence of these weeds is sighted. Some of these cattle-poisonous weeds in Africa are the African rue, Parthenium, Showy crotalaria(also known as rattlebox or rattleweed), Orpaleki(also known as jimsonweed or devil's snare), famine weed, and ragwort. Most of these weeds are not known to be poisonous to humans.

If the herders continue to make their presence known in those areas, even without their cattle then it should become clear at that point that the locals should be ready to defend themselves without all this grazing nonsense added.

....

Arrested for?

Teenaira:
■ Did he remember to tell them to go and farm so that they will have food to eat.
■ The people producing the food we are importing do not have 2 heads.

Interesting statement. So the problems of insecurity faced by both large and small-scale farmers to date, many of whom have had to abandon their farms as a result should be brushed aside or What?

2. Do those people have Fulani herders actively and intentionally threatening their lives and crops as they work to produce said foods?

Nyamiriflathed:
Srab nations are extremely racist and African countries are very tribal and xenophobic. Most wars across Africa are actually tribal wars.

Xenophia and tribalism are forms of Racism.. Your tribal wars are Racial wars

So again to my question, what other African or Arab countries out there has this special something that binds them together?

EmeeNaka:
Nigerians has nothing that binds them together. We have many lines of divisions and that has prohibited any sense of Nationalism. Anybody that claims to be happy with Nigeria is either a member of party in power or a member of the leaders ethnic or religious group.

What other African or Arab nation does?

Slytiger:
Nigeria is an ethnic country.

What African or Arab nation isn't?

Philipponzaghi:
Wow, because I'm sure the governor just loves being accused of breaking the constitution, that's definitely how he wants to spend his time defending himself against petty accusations.

Fubara's actions in installing a caretaker committee are unconstitutional— Sections 7 and 8 of the Federal Constitution. And I believe the people of River's state — not these fraudsters — ought to call him out on it and even take him to court in that case.

Bigboytinz:
■ The Martins Amaewhule-led Rivers State House of Assembly has accused Governor Siminialayi Fubara of breaching the provisions of the 1999 Constitution as amended.
In a letter dated July 8, 2024, signed by its factional Speaker, Martins Amaewhule, and sent to Fubara on Monday, the House highlighted the governor’s actions that breached the Constitution.
■ In the letter, the House drew Fubara’s attention to the 2024 Appropriation Bill, saying he was yet to present it before a duly constituted House of Assembly under the speakership of Amaewhule in line with Section 121 of the Constitution.
Addressing the governor, the House said, “You are yet to present the Rivers State Appropriation Bill, 2024 in line with Section 121(1) of the 1999 Constitution as altered and in compliance with the judgement delivered on the 22nd day of January 2024 by Honourable Justice J.K Omotosho of the Federal High Court of Nigeria.

This Martins Amaewhule is guilty o fraud as it is. The Nigerian Constitution states that he automatically lost his post when he switched parties some time ago. So, his claim to lead the Rivers State House of Assembly is unconstitutional and criminal.

Chinkoalhaji34:
Looks like Fubara needs to learn how to follow the rules set by his boss, Wike.

2. Nonsense! He was duly removed from office by the Federal Constitution. These fraudsters should all be arrested abeg and this comedy show brought to an end.

ZIAZI:
Wait ooo! Shey some people don dey praise the same Court of Appeal now it's against Wike's camp abi? Funny hypocrites!🤡😂😂😂 In this case, I always knew that the issue concerning the chairmen's tenure elongation would not stand. The tenure elongation law was no doubt a beautiful piece of legislation and would have curbed the use of CTC for good in Rivers State.
For people like the OP saying the police can now leave in peace, you never understand River's politics. The right of appeal is still there to make use of, and if they do so, the policemen at the various LGs go soon dey roast yam and plantain at the entrance of the various LG Secretariats.

Nonsense! Tenure elongation that deprives the people of their right to elect their choice is a beautiful piece of legislation. Are you for real? You rivers people... the thing we do una deep abeg!

phantom:
APPEAL COURT STRIKES OUT CASE ON LG TENURE ELONGATION
Court of Appeal, Port Harcourt division on Monday struck out the appeal on the following matters for lack of merit.
1. CA/PH/137M/2024
HON. ENYIADA CLIFFORD COOKEY-GAM (EXECUTIVE CHAIRMAN OPOBO/NKORO LOCAL GOVERNMENT AREA & 6 ORS VS GOVERNOR OF RIVERS STATE & ORS
2. CA/PH/145M/2024
HON. ENYIADA CLIFFORD COOKEY-GAM (EXECUTIVE CHAIRMAN OPOBO/NKORO LOCAL GOVERNMENT AREA & 6 ORS VS GOVERNOR OF RIVERS STATE & ORS
By the verdict of the court former LGA Chairmen Lalaam...😃
THE POLICE CAN NOW VACATE THE LGA COUNCIL SECRETARIACT FOR PROPER TAKEOVER BY C.T.C CHAIRMEN.

The case should have been struck out beginning at the high court as the Nigerian Constitution is clear on what should take place in a situation such as this. All of these hearings are a waste of the people's resources!

Always opening mouth waaa to say rubbish. When your brothers said 65 naira per litre or war, it wasn't propaganda?
Shuiabu Yusuf must have voted for Tinubu. But you want everyone that voted for Tinubu to be asslickers and zombies for Tinubu till 2060.

He is from Borno State too.

I am reminded of Mohammed Bouazizi who set himself on fir on December 17th in response to unjust treatment inflicted on him by municipal officials in Tunisia, an event that sparked the Arab Spring of 2011.

Alexiiydon:

See how foolish a mind can in fqct remain even in 2024... Abegi, make I waka pass this nonsense before I get infected!
