johnkey:
useless police and army, slaves of fulanis. if you get any policeman or army for your street or area it's time to start attacking their families, mobilize thugs to kill their wives and children and burn their properties. maybe then they go get sense.
MODIFIED i'm tired of replying senseless cowards slaves so please if you have problem with this post simply go and kill yourself, before the herdsmen get to you.

You are a bloody criminal!

They should stop writing letters and do the needful.

Kanu should stop putting mouth in the issue of the Southwest. He should mind his business. He should stop acting like he cares about the Southwest.

They should stop going to the police to report on the issue of herdsmen. Our policemen have been compromise.

Yorubas are too lawful! You won't survive in this country with this attitude.

I have been following the news for the past few days and I came across a comment that said it is different if the Southwest is surrounded by people who understand the fundamental purpose of laws. Who understand that you can't shield your own people from criminal prosecution irrespective of whether they are from your tribe or not.

Every tribes are protecting their own criminals from prosecution and the Yorubas have began by shielding theirs too but they are still playing it wrong.

In other words, I don't want to read news of people killing you. The only news I want to read is there is clash between the Yorubas and so so. That's the only language this country understands. After a year of that, we will now fight for amnesty for you all.

I see!!! So the key to National Cake is to cause chaos.

Niger Delta did it...... It works. Boko Haram did it..... It works. IPOB are still doing it..... It has not yet work. Bandit are still doing it...... It has not yet work. Herdsmen are still doing it....... It has not yet work.

We are directly and indirectly telling youths that criminality works. That's the only thing that works in this country. Criminality. It's the only language this country understand. And it's the language the Yorubas must learn if it wants to survive.

As someone said there is no Southern Unity.

As at 5:35pm, this what we know. The police are on the side of the herders. The armies are on the side of herders. The armies and police are receiving authority from above.

For now, anyone who know Sunday should tell him to leave this country. He is an open target. He should go under underground. Enough of press release. None of our leaders should publicly comment again. Nothing again. Whatsoever they want to do, they should do.

We don't want anyone to be an open target. Don't comment. I only want to see result.

He said: “Let me tell you what this thing means. There’s a need to clear this air. If you don’t clear it, next time when they call, the Army will not respond because you people have alleged and penned the name of the Army in a bad light (sic) and the Army will not respond when there is an emergency in this place.

“If they don’t respond, you can’t blame them. So, the need to clear this is very important. If I were you, I would come out clear because your name is everywhere in the petition they wrote; that you were beaten mercilessly, and look at you here.

“Say it that whoever is doing it is doing it on his own; that you didn’t send anybody.

This is the part that shock me most. After using the army to terrorise our people, they still have the power to use the army to threatened them to recant their story.

This is a clear evidence that the Presidency sanctioned the act of these herdsmen. They can never do the right thing.

Hehehehehe! We are all sleeping on fire.

Kudos to the villagers who refused to be silent and to the journalists who are refusing to let this story die.

Ha!!!

Shelumiel:
Are you one of those youth? If you are not, kindly dey you lane.

Talk your own na.....advise him.

OneTemplate:



100% correct. We have to remove our mindset from always demanding solutions from others towards accepting that we can provide those solutions ourselves.

You sound knowledgeable and full of depth. Perhaps you can advise the young man in a nicer manner than your first post did. He might just need encouragement now, at this moment, and tough love later.

We have to do good cop and bad cop with him. I have done bad cop, others too can do good cop. We need to toughen him up.

DoubleEngine007:
Nice and you are right to some extent .. Agricultural sector is a good sector to invest in,but how are we sure herdsmen won't spoil the farm,if he choose to work on the field? That is why I talked about the environment not being conducive for business. I like the word aprokoism I think you should just write your own dictionary

That's why we as Nigerians should continue putting our leaders on fire. The consequences of this herdsmen’s atrocities are far reaching. They should stop being selfish.

Dictionary for where!

DoubleEngine007:
E no go bad,if you'll lend him a hand,so that he can be expose to the "outside world in Nigeria " . If your parents or family aren't rich, if you're not a pastor or politician, if you're not into fraud.. I no see any outside environment my sister ,the country hard under this government.. Even if you're into business, the government is not making the environment conducive.. People dey suffer o

You don't have to go outside of this country to get expose. I have never been on a plane but I work in a travel industry and I can confidently tell you most of our Clients that travel out of this country only go there on holiday or for businesses. They still come back to this same terrible country for their businesses. Highest they do is to take their family there but they themselves will come back to this terrible country.

Do you know that most Nigerians based out there are coming home to invest at home. Specifically they are coming home to invest in agriculture because right now agriculture is a money spinning business. So how do I those this information despite the fact that I have never been on a plane? It is simply because where I'm working,, I'm putting my ears down. Meaning I'm applying the art of aprokoism.

@ 17 you ain't see nothing yet. You are still going to face bigger failures and bigger disappointments. That's what makes life fun and makes your victories worthy.

Brandonx:

You don't have a point what have you seen ? You are just 17 and you're contemplating suicide? Do you know what people go through daily.
You even have access to the Internet and you are complaining?
Boy be grateful for your life and what you have.

Don't mind him! People are fucking making it in this country and they are not politicians. They are youths who refused to be held bound by Nigeria situation.

He needs to be exposed to the world outside his environment.

I love this! It is obvious the people are setting their ass on fire and I'm happy the the media are reporting this issue.

Congratulation!

They should start doing it in the North and stop creating insecurity everywhere with their cows.

Gandollaar:
Ok I understand you.

But that would never happen because you rejected Ruga.

Government has spoken through their proxies that Fulanis would continue to graze openly until world's end because it's in their nature.

Femi Adesina once advocated for " your land or your life" for peace to reign, he speaks for the topmost leadership class.

Ruga nko Ruga ni. It will be stupidity on the part of any other state that the Fulani are not indigenous to allow Ruga

We should use our own federal allocation to cater to their own interest. Is the money allocated enough for own people?

buckeyemedia:
It is not the President’s call to ban herdsmen, that is the duty of the individual State Governments, the severity of herdsmen’s problems vary from State to State, some states are more critical than others, so a 1 wand solution can’t fix the problem, it is a state problem,!not a Federal problem.

It's a Nigeria problem. This is an issue that is affecting majority of the states. We have a group of people who believes that they are above the the law or as one of them said, Nigeria belongs to them.

They are one out of 300 tribes in this country. It's affront on the rule of law for this group of people to be terrorising our people and the President continue to turn blind eyes on this issue.

Gandollaar:
What tools?
Police, Army or monthly allocation?

The only support the state government needs from the federal government is for them to ban public grazing and the consequences for those who go against this law should be clearly stated.

It's not acceptable that we have a President who in words and in deed think it is okay for herdsmen to trespass on lands that don't belong to them.

Ha! Do you all see some of them with an army uniform? It reminds of the news of soldiers following the herdsmen to people's farm.

What if they ain't soldiers?

Ayrastarr:
I'm new on Nairaland!!! So happy to be here

You are welcome. If you truly want to have fun please go to entertainment section or go to any other section that aligns with what makes you happy.

Politics section is the worst place to be. It's full of politicians and politicians are the worst people on earth. The shortest and simplest way they can get to power is to divide the people.

Meanwhile, the President of the Gbenga Akinwande Foundation, Gbenga Akinwande, has advised Ogun State governor, Dapo Abiodun, to find solutions to the herdsmen attacks and killings in Ogun State.
Akinwande stated this in a letter to Governor Abiodun in the aftermath of two separate involving herdsmen and soldiers’ brutalization and attacks of residents of the state at Ubeku village in Yewa north LGA and Oru community in Ago-Iwoye over the
weekend respectively.

Imagine the lawlessness! Do they think they are in North?

I personally don't want the return of OPC but if the government failed to do their duty, they will return and they will be far brutal than the Nigeria police.

It said some lawful Fulani people are also victims of the killer herdsmen, adding that some politicians are using the Fulani herdsmen’s criminal activities as antics to destroy the country’s unity.

Do they expect us to fold our hands and watch insecurity in the West becomes high like the North. You want your criminals to be King the way they are Kings in the North. Let the innocent among them start talking. They know these criminals. They know people who are troublesome.

Ogun State is very close to Lagos o. Ogun state should not give them base to come and start kidnapping us in Lagos. I don't have money o.

Nigeria Government love chasing shadows.

The issue is the belief by the herdsmen that they are above the laws and that the President will do all he can to shield these law breakers at the expense of other Nigerians.

What's going in the South West is still manageable. But if the federal failed to back the Southwest Governors and give them the tools to succeed, we are all playing with fire.

May his soul rest in perfect peace. That's the result of their lackadaisical attitude to this issue for a long time. They should tighten up every loopholes for the sake of public safety.

Venom, revenge & destruction.

Unluckily for them, they came face to face with the realities of gun powder along the general line of Agbede a village south of Auchi and the Kukuruku range of hills running westward. From there the jihadists advance southward was blunted as they were forced to withdraw backward. In other words, they beat a retreat.

As time went on, an advanced form of the Stockholm syndrome may have had its place as the indigenous Hausa began to see the Fulani occupiers and usurpers of their lands as friends and were content with the crumbs that fell from the Fulani dinner tables.

This is written by a Southerner. Specifically someone from the East. If you want to know an article from someone from the East, check for the tone of the article. It is always full of venom, revenge and destruction. It's hardly you see positivity.

Nigeria government love chasing shadows. They are dodging the main issue.

The main issue is that the UAE government banned airlines plying Nigeria to UAE routes except their own airline which is Emirate simply because they don't trust our laboratories. In return Nigeria government is banning Emirate simply because they decided to do their own test using laboratories not approved by the government.

The solution to this issue is diplomacy. More of our people travel there. Whether they like it or not, they have an edge against us. They should trace and fine laboratories that are compromising on saying the truth. I know of cases of 3 Nigerians who were positive and were looking for negative results.

Something is off. They came specifically for someone and they left specifically with that person while others were taken to throw of the scent.
