And at night, the wind will be howling through the window and front door.
Which is fine- but becomes concerning when you remember that you shut all doors and windows for the night. Then you tiptoe to the top of the cupboard where you left your loaded rifle and feel your hand for it. But your hand meets an empty space. And you look down the dimmed hallway and see something in a human form with three legs.
privaldo: The immediate past Secretary-General of the Arewa Consultative Forum, Anthony Sani, has said he is not in support of regional outfits such as Amotekun in the South-West and the recently launched Eastern Security Network for the South-East.
Sani noted that what Nigeria needed to tackle insecurity was to empower the police by way of expansion of the workforce, training, equipment and motivation by salary increment – and not by creating regional outfits.
The ACF chief noted that northerners living in the South-South and South-East regions of the country would not be threatened by the creation of the Eastern Security Network created by the Indigenous People of Biafra.
Kanu had, on Saturday, launched the regional outfit via a live Facebook broadcast, which he explained, was necessitated by the current security situation in major parts of the country.
"He said the objective of the security network is to protect the regions from “Fulani criminal activities.”
According to the IPOB leader, the outfit is a replica of Amotekun launched by the South-West governors to curb insecurity in the region.
Speaking to SaharaReporters on Tuesday, Sani described Kanu as unfit to launch a security network.
He said, “This Kanu of the IPOB we are talking about; who is he to even launch a security outfit? What is his stand in the South-South and South-East? His group has been banned. He has run away, and he is afraid of coming to Nigeria, and you are saying he is announcing a security outfit. “To announce and operate where he is? The security outfit can’t even be implemented because he is not in Nigeria. So how can we be threatened by someone who is somewhere else and claiming he has an outfit in Nigeria?”
Speaking further, the Ex-ACF scribe said the police should be reformed by way of having enough number of adequately trained and properly equipped personnel to enable them to live up their mandate.
He added, “The problem of this country is the inadequate number of trained policemen who are well equipped. Other security outfits are also not well equipped; the numbers are not enough; they are not well trained; do you think they will perform magic?
“I am not really in favour of all these regional outfits. I am more towards empowering the police by way of number; who are well trained, equipped and well-motivated by way of salary allowance and logistics to secure the country.
“The issue is not the multiplication of security outfits but poor funding; ill equipping of those available.”
Nchenches: The killers are Nigerians. In Benue area, sticks and poles were put into the vaginaaas of pregnant Igbo women till the poles emerged from the mouth in 1966-67 pogrom against the Igbo in the north. The present killers did not even use the most brutal system used in Benue in 1967 to kill fleeing Igbos who left far north and were stopped in Benue area, brutally murdered.
As usual, Igbos have forgiven anyway. But this type of brutal murder here reminds one about what happened in the past.
This particular killers are largely Fulani militia men from Niger, Chad, Mali and Central African Republic. Sure, the 1967 Biafran Genocide killings were done by Nigerians of largely Middle Belt origin. However, my comment was on the current killings in the Northern part of Nigeria (actually, most of Nigeria at the moment.)
As for the Biafran Genocide, yes the Igbos may have forgiven but they have never forgotten and should never forget. That is why the Igbos are the most vigiliant of Nigerian tribes.
These guys are animals. They kill & slaughter Nigerians because they are not Nigerians.
Thanks to APC, Buhari, Tinubu, the South West, these animals were brought into Nigeria as a militia to wreck havoc after the 2015 elections as they expected GEJ not to concede. GEJ conceded. They couldnt move these Fulani militia out of the country. They had to "settle" and had their cattles as well. Hence they have been killing in a scale as never before. They need land, they need to settle, they are Fulanis.
Sebastine1994: i came back from work on Friday to discover that my wife has ran away with our son and some properties in the house, my neighbor said she is a bad woman that I should let her go, they caught her in adultery and she ran away because of shame.
for the first time in my life I discovered that I have not played my role as a husband. I was just focused on bringing back money home for the family and forgot the sexual responsibility, I agree I am at fault too. but if I calculate all the bride price I spent and wedding cost, I feel like going to bring her back. if not for her sake but for the baby, please advice is needed now
she is an igala while I am igbo,
You are Igbo but you seem not to have sense. Even Kogi people run away from Igala women, yet you ran into the lions den?

“Oke and I weren’t just lovers. We were friends. Good friends. Best friends. Partners. We did everything together. We loved each other so much and never failed to express it every time. We were our relationship goals. I’m glad he got to experience real love and I’m glad I got to experience him.”
Obi-Enadhuze’s residence was among those invaded after thugs hijacked the protest and began destroying public and private property.

delerx: Mad ooo. Guess the daughter was slowpoke or ugly
She was actually quite pretty. Just finished a teacher's college or so, "loaded" everywhere This was when I lived in a land where offering their daughters or females to you, once they fancy you, is quite normal.
raker300: Wee hours of the morning and the internet is awash with censures as a section of the country register their grouse with the current minister of works, Mr fashola
Most users are of the belief he’s the reason for the incessant killings and accidents on major highways in the north owing to the fact these roads are bad giving leeway to bandits to accost passengers and disposes them of their belongings.
johnmartus: Nothing good will come out of it.They have gathered like that before, nothern only unite during election they are less concerned when it comes to security those 50 groups just gathered to drink bottle water.
One thing I like about southern Nigeria they are very United in terms of security issues. No part of southern Nigeria can accommodate this deadly terrorist called bokoharam. They will fish out their sponsorer Including their supporters.
If the dominant religion in Southern Nigeria, Christianity finds a way to excuse everything as, "it is the will of God, let us pray to God...", then it will accomodate BH.
Deola2020: Hello Nairalanders.....A close friend of mine was to return to Nigeria from china early this year but due to covid-19 pandemic decided to stay back a bit till everything was clear...
Fast forward to now after booking for his flight ticket which has a stopover in hongkong,he was denied boarding a plane in Shanghai cos he doesn't have an hongkong transit visa which he never knew of or told and his visa expires in 3days and getting the hongkong transit visa takes 4 weeks.....
Please experienced nairaland travellers and guys currently residing in China, please what countries can he has stop-overs or connecting flights to that doesn't require transit visa... .
Pls help urgently so he won't overstay his visa or have issues with Chinese authorities because he is operating under a low budget after expending so much to exorbitant flight tickets rates and other Chinese authorities wahala....
Please I need y'all advice before I book another flight ticket for him before 7am Shanghai time
Singapore. Used it when I went to New Zealand and suddenly, the Hong Kong I travelled through started telling me stories. Singapore does not need any transit visa.
The Asaba massacre was the worst. Sad at the end of everything, we all move on. No rememberance. Nothing. Nigeria is like a survival state.
Nigeria is like pockets of Rwandan Genocide repeated in varying volumes across a its lifetime. It continues because there is no accountability, offenders and genocidist live in impunity.
azawuoba: waiting for foolish urchins to disclaim facts as usual
all of you paid agents that are trying to sabotage and change narratives that there was never shootings will not end well
I wish and pray for you and your family what really happened on 20-10-2020. ( since you are all so sure there was no shooting )
morons
They are heartless, they are without consciences. This is what happens when hunger has been weaponised. While you are seeking for truth and closure, they are seeking for that next N20,000 from the regime to satisfy their hunger and feed their families.
lalasticlala: The call for #EndSARS victims to come forward to testify is beginning to yield success. In the wake of the Lagos Judicial Panel of Inquiry sitting, more victims from the Lekki tollgate shootings are now speaking up.
Edwin Augustine: A victim, Mr Augustine recalls how the light went off and soldiers started shooting and how a guy was shot by the side. While checking the guy that was shot, he also got shot in his thigh. (He showed where he was shot) He said he passed out and woke up the next day at the Ikeja General hospital. Edwin Augustine said he wonders why the government said they didn't shoot at them while he still has the bullets in his body.
Another victim and his father also narrated their experiences. The father said he met his son in hospital after the shooting, that he couldn't open his eyes and couldn't talk to him. He displayed the X-ray they did.
The son said he wasn't protesting, that he was with his friend at the Lekki Tollgate when the shootings started and he got shot.
Dead Victim's Younger Sister Speaks: In tears, Olufunmi Ayedungbe spoke on behalf of her brother, Gabriel Ayola, who died from the protest. She revealed that her late brother was shot in the head. She recalled how her brother died at the hospital, saying that he couldn't talk and that he was fed through the nose.
My Sympathies to those who were killed by the Buhari Nigerian regime and the to those who were injured and to their relatives as well.
The Unity shown at the Lekki Tollgate was what threatened the Nigerian State. To see largely Southern Nigerian youths UNITED in a single cause threatened the current make-up of the Nigerian State. It wasnt really about ending SARS. Unity is a threat.
I am usually an optimist, but to be frank these guys died and were injured for nothing. Let me reiterate- Be good to your family, friends and neighbours BUT dont get involved in any situation that will infer you are doing your best to "save Nigeria". Nigeria isnt worth dying for. Like Asaba Massacre, like Odi & Zaki Biam, like the Biafran Genocide, like Agatu, like Umuahi, like Nkpor, like Aba, like Obi-Igbo, Like Zaria, and like Lekki Massacre Nigeria will wake up and move on as if NOTHING happened. Nigeria will try to erase history too.
SeunWedsLinda: Good morning nairalanders. I'm sharing this here because I feel restless with this urgent need to end my relationship. I'll make the story as short as possible.
I started dating my girlfriend this time 2 years ago. The experience hasn't been bad because she's all I could wish for in a woman. Very pretty both facially and in physique. Respectful. Been there for me during my down times. Encourages me when things don't go my way. At some point, I thought she was gonna leave because of my financial state but no. She still stuck by me. Even helping me financially to bring me up to my feet.
However, Despite every attempts at steadying my financial imbalance, there was never any progress. We went for a crusade mid last year and the prophet called her out, was praying for her and she was falling under anointing. She was oblivious of what was happening then the man of God delivered a big prophesy that shocked me. He said she is possessed by a spirit which is out to ruin every man she's had something to do with in the past. That a lot of men have been destroyed. My heart raced faster and I couldn't figure out what to do at that point. When she finally got herself, she cleaned up and went home. Came to my house the following morning and asked me what happened. I told her everything the prophet said and she begged me not to leave her. Of course I didn't leave her. We still continued with the relationship. Don't blame me here guys. My belief was that no man or woman has the power to influence what happens to you. That success or financial breakthrough is the end product of hardwork and perseverance. That was why I took that prophesy with a pinch of salt.
Our lives continued. I kept encountering frustrations in my live goals and ambitions. Depts hanging round my neck with no hope in sight. Rents expiring with no plan for renewal. To the point that I had to borrow to feed. These were much that I decided to go see another prophet yesterday. This prophet is different from the first one that hosted a crusade we went for. I decided to go alone this time around and it's located in a different state. In the course of the ministration. The prophet called me out. He told me I should limit things I say to THAT GIRL (my girlfriend). He mentioned to me that my girlfriend is good and it's not her fault. That she is possessed by a spirit that is out to ruin. Responsible for restricting any favor that looks like it's coming my way. Every thing he told me was in tandem with my real life experiences. He prayed for me afterwards and I still went further to meet him. I needed some clarity on whether or not to continue with my relationship. He didn't urge that I breakup. But he advised I should just leave her and focus on my hustle.
My girlfriend has been calling me since yesterday but I've not been picking. I'm confused guys. I know I will eventually pick and talk to her but how do I breakup? Where do I start from? I don't want to tell her what the prophet said about her. My mind is mess rn. Please advice me guys
Oga, this is why we encourage people to become spiritually strong themselves so they dont rely on these so-called "prophets".
Look inwards and you will find out why you are having issues with your life. Sexual immorality; lack of diligence; unforgiveness; jealousy; hate; gossip, etc. Not saying you have these but there are many individuals who have these sort of issues yet still go about blaming others for their predicament. With your girlfriend STOP the sexual immorality with her. Use a mirror and, in humility, x-ray your life. Ask God for mercy and begin to work hard at anything small and remove from your life these listed sins. Take some accountability and stop blaming others. For example, if you fornicate, what would you expect? That you wont be punished for that? You get punished for that; others get it in the future, others get their punishment in the "now".
STOP listening to all these so-called "prophets". They are largely business men. Read your Bible and you will have a discerning spirit.
You have to question if they have the natural brain to do any thinking if they can leave the President and all the persons in charge of the security apparatus to attack Davido, a musician Like, seriously?

nwekeugochukwu: A lady identified as Chinenye and her boyfriend, Chinedu Nwode were killed by suspected cultists at Oriuzor community in Ezza North Local Government Area of Ebonyi state on Sunday, November 29.
IgbereTV gathered that the killing followed a renewed clash between two rival cults in the state, the Baggers and Aye confraternities.
The couple were returning from a child dedication in Oriuzor to Onueke when they were shot dead.
The killing was said to have angered some persons suspected to be members of the Aye Confraternity, who in turn killed one Chikwado Nweke and another man at Onueke community in the same local government.
Spokesperson of the State Police Command, DSP Loveth Odah, who confirmed the incident on Tuesday, December 2, condemned the spate of unreported cult killings in the area.
"This is bad and I don’t know why these things are more often heard of in this area. This is condemnable and it’s unfortunate that those who lost their loved ones to these crises have not come up to identify themselves. How can these things be happening in that place and these are brothers and they are just killing themselves," said Odah.
"On hearing this ugly news, the Ebonyi State Commissioner of Police, Mr Philip Maku, deployed men of the command in the area to ensure that more lives are not lost. The police are investigating the matter and soon, we will tell you what really happened." she added.
Meanwhile, friends of Chinenye have taken to Facebook to mourn her demise.
