That was the meat pie and coke they used to turn people to Zombies and some haven't recovered till today. tonardo: |
Of course na mouth. Na mouth and yet all week long we've been getting sermons why we shouldn't stand up to epileptic governance. Na mouth yet dem no gree let Tuface be. Name mouth dem dey do meeting every day on top the protest. Now dem dey another meeting. Na mouth. Don't worry you'll see remember you were told the storm is in this protest and it will sweep away anyone that it hits. [quote author=kindnyce post=53394683][/quote] |
Can you please remind me how much he/they said Okonjo 'thiefed'? At the end of the day 'LIEses'! For him to say we never told us a lie before is evidence that he is a pathologically chronic liar. Or is it chronic pathological liar now. You get it sha ... If he is named Lai and he lies like this what if he was name LAISI? His lies would have triggered earthquakes. HungerBAD: |
It will compound more problems? Even US protests how much more a place turning to jagajaga republic? Ahmadgani: |
Don't worry about the tear gas since you're not going to protest. Prophets of doom. If one drop of blood is shed on that day, APC will see that there are 165 million Nigerians that didn't vote for them. kindnyce: |
You have time to waste polling for or against. It is only demons that won't want a better Nigeria. If you aren't in support of a protest for a better Nigeria then you are totally on your own. YES in capital. Enough, Enough, Enough. |
So you see that we have thugs in power now. How many protests happened against the last govt? Now you are sermonising against protests. Why are you people so uncivilized? Even protests were held the day a US president was being sworn in! so who are you APC? You better pass Republican Party/Trump? Abagworo: |
Your governor - ritualist Your senator - paedophile Your minister - crook Your reps - drug baron Your (dis)honourable - rapist Your chairman - 429 Your ambassador - forger And you are talking of moral rights of an innocent man? Talking of manhood. What is manhood? Is that another country somewhere? mashin: |
You are raping us and you don't want us to shout out? I see. Try and sponsor thugs to attack protesters on that day. The punishment Nigerians should have given PDP, it is APC that will chop it in full. bolaino: |
Under table? ladyF: |
Since they don't want us to protest peacefully, in our fatherland, let us make a demand that they send our president back, dead or alive. If UK people could vote that Trump shouldn't come to their country, we should vote that we want Buhari out of their country. Whatever treatment he can't get here in Nigeria, whatever treatment an ordinary Nigerian can't afford, he is not entitled to it. We are no longer fools. No, no more mercy for politicians. Enough is enough |
Which one is Tuface group now? Nigerians are rallying against epileptic governance by a failing government. Tuface is just one of the many Nigerians involved. APC can't even save themselves talk less of saving the nation. Fake party, fake government. TonyeBarcanista: |
I liked this post cos of these kids, so much beauty and humanity is locked in the picture. But when they grow? People like Buhari and his 36 failures will have wiped the smiles and beauty off their faces. edlion57: |
The words of the elder. Gbosa! ffada: |
And we must not protest? Abominations upon abomination. 1. Shot at school 2. Beat teachers for correcting their wayward, terrorism induced children 3. Beat teachers in front of pupils! It is only a mad devil that does that 4. Emotionally traumatised hundreds of learners I don't see why DSS should not be classified as a "terrorist organisation" after the Apostle Suleiman attack and this school attack. Where does this people get off? Femi Falana please helllllllppppppppppplllllllllllllpppppplpppp. Or better, Almighty God, please deliver us. Amen. |
Where do I start from? OK. Let me just start from here. 1. At the time OBJ wiped off the debt of Nigeria and set us up on the path of pride and prosperity, the barrel wasn't even close to $40. 2. When Buhari's stronghead led to us losing fuel output from 2.1m barrels to 400k barrels. Was it Jona's fault? If you don't know Buhari signed and sealed recession by himself. 3. When IMF came to warn that he was commiting economic harakiri was it Jona? 4. When he pursued cloudy policies, was it Jona? 5. When he suddenly became an economist and fiscal pro; winding Emefiele like grandpas wristwatch, was it Jona? 6. The investors that carried over $30bn in months due to kindergaten management of the economy - was Jona written on their head? 7. And like fools, APC only finally accepted they caused the mess just two months ago. Even if Jona ruined Nigeria, why must Buhari destroy what's left? See, APC publicly announced they caused it. Do you know of any other reason we should still continue looking for the thief when he gas confessed? sarrki: |
If there is any reason I'll be happy to see women protesting against #yeyegovernance, it will be to spite those who said they are good for kitchen and the other room. I am sure by Monday we will know whether the other room man is correct or Nigeria women are correct. Am waiting to snap pictures. |
Don't mind the Otuoke President. Is that not how he DISGRACED himself thrice in Germany? 1. He called them West Germany 2. Didn't know what the yoga at the top in Germany is called 3. He still went back again to tell the world the only thing he knows is kitchen and the other room? Am I wrong? Jibril659: |
APC, please let us protest and go home jejee. If you disturb, harass, kill, or arrest any protester on Monday I can tell you that you would have successfully destroyed the little chances of showing your face to campaign ever again. One day of protest is all we ask for. Is it too much? Haba! |
You know how much badluck APC happily lavished on Goodluck barely 2 years ago, don't you? That's where people learnt all these stunts they're pulling today. limanmohammed6: |
What shall the punishment be for: 1. One who brought hunger on his people? 2. One who fails to defend people from killer foreign Fulani herdsmen? 3. One who regularly lies to his people? [quote author=limanmohammed6 post=53369950][/quote] |
Governance is not easy, especially when it is handed to unqualified proud, lying, nepotic, egoistic, and unfit beings. One problem (looting) was replaced by many problems including looting. Like a person who had malaria or yellow fever was sent out of the house; one who had yellow fever, lassa fever, dengue fever, and ...la fever was brought in. PDP had yellow fever, the replacement tenant had yellow fever and Ebola. |
Keep the lies flowing my dear government |
A people led from bottom up by liars, child-marriage lovers, paedophiles, looters, murderers, terrorists, bigots, and ritualists should NEVER even mention 'moral standing'. Which of these politicians is in anyway as balanced as Tuface? He fine pass them, he successful pass them, and he has been up since over a decade. I sabi Tuface before I even sabi Tinubu. Tuface's moral standing dey kampe - at least as at today. REDshouse: |
There are bad Christians but very few heinous, destructive, killing, rampaging, unreasonable, arson-driven Christians. A good number of Muslims are good, but Islam has no space for non-Muslims. That's where the problem really lies. About the hate you mentioned, sorry, but how you treat others will one day piss people off and then they'll give you a measure of your own pill. sinistermind: |
FEATURES Who will protect Nigeria’s northern Christians? Every week, there are more massacres, but nobody seems to mind — not even their own government Douglas Murray Source - http://www.spectator.co.uk/2017/02/who-will-protect-nigerias-northern-christians/ More than 2 million people have been displaced by violence in Nigeria (Photo: Getty) 4 February 2017 9:00 AM Another day in northern Nigeria, another Christian village reeling from an attack by the Muslim Fulani herdsmen who used to be their neighbours — and who are now cleansing them from the area. The locals daren’t collect the freshest bodies. Some who tried earlier have already been killed, spotted by the waiting militia and hacked down or shot. The Fulani are watching everything closely from the surrounding mountains. Every week, their progress across the northern states of Plateau and Kaduna continues. Every week, more massacres — another village burned, its church razed, its inhabitants slaughtered, raped or chased away. A young woman, whose husband and two children have just been killed in front of her, tells me blankly, ‘Our parents told us about these people. But we lived in relative peace and we forgot what they said.’ For the outside world, what is happening to the Christians of northern Nigeria is both beyond our imagination and beneath our interest. These tribal-led villages, each with their own ‘paramount ruler’, were converted by missionaries in the 19th and 20th centuries. But now these Christians — from the bishop down — sense that they have become unsympathetic figures, perhaps even an embarrassment, to the West. The international community pretends that this situation is a tit-for-tat problem, rather than a one-sided slaughter. Meanwhile, in Nigeria, the press fails to report or actively obscures the situation. Christians in the south of the country feel little solidarity with their co-religionists suffering from this Islamic revivalism and territorial conquest in the north. And worst of all, the plight of these people is of no interest to their own government. In fact, this ethnic and religious cleansing appears to be taking place with that government’s complicity or connivance. Every village has a similar story. A few days before any attack, a military helicopter is spotted dropping arms and other supplies into the areas inhabited by the Fulani tribes. Then the attack comes. For reasons of Islamic doctrine, the militia often deliver a letter of warning. Then they come, at any time of night or day, not down the dirt tracks, but silently through the foliage. The Christian villagers, who are forbidden to carry arms (everyone is, in theory), have no way to defend themselves. With some exceptions, they also tend to believe what they were taught about turning the other cheek. The village of Goska was attacked on Christmas Eve. In a temporary shelter nearby, a young man describes how he ran towards his home when he heard the attack start. There he found his mother lying dead on the floor. Uniformed Fulani militia were everywhere. He fled across the fields: ‘I ran and ran until I realised my feet could not carry me any longer.’ The first bullet that hit him passed through the sole of one foot; the second through the back of the other leg with that clean felt-tip mark Kalashnikov bullets make on entry. The exit wounds are less neat —the second exploded out through his right kneecap. On the ground, he realised why he could no longer run, but also that he was still alive. ‘My day was not over,’ he says, brushing his hand across his better leg. Across the surviving Christian villages of the north, thousands have been killed and hundreds of thousands have been displaced. In those villages and the IDP (Internally Displaced Persons) camps to which many have fled, you can see the same wounds from the same bullets. In the remote village of Sho, where the attacks have been going on since 2001, a girl of 12 — in her Sunday best — embarrassedly shows me the scars of the bullet which entered and exited her elbow recently while she played behind her house. An eight-year-old girl balances on one foot to point out the bullet wound on the other, a hallmark of the snipers sitting in the hills around us. Villages have been persuaded to keep records of the attacks to show anyone who cares. One of the very few from outside who does — Britain’s own Baroness Cox — came here recently. Her vehicle was spotted by the Fulani, who came out hunting for her and only just missed their target. Because of attacks like this, almost nobody comes. Just one more reason why these atrocities do not attract the West’s attentions. The task of chronicling the outrages continues nonetheless. Village leaders keep ring-binders of their dead. Some have photo-graph albums of what their villages have been through: old women set alight; young women raped and shot; babies hacked to death. The Nigerian government, led by a Fulani president — Muhammadu Buhari — clearly does not wish to protect these people. Even more than under Buhari’s incompetent Christian predecessor, the army fails to perform its most basic duties. As you get into the more dangerous and remote areas, sullen young soldiers at army road blocks hustle you for cash at gunpoint. A villager takes me to the bridge where the village leader and 13 others were recently gunned down in a Fulani ambush. Nigerian army troops watched the whole thing from their base a couple of hundred yards away — just as they did the destruction of another Christian village, the remains of which sit, burned out and silent, right opposite them. The army seems to have no interest in protecting the Christians, while the government in Abuja appears to care more about passing new laws on cattle-rustling than on protecting human lives. When challenged after a massacre, soldiers often claim that they didn’t receive any orders — or had been commanded not to intervene. In a line that’s parroted by some NGOs, the government says that this is a land or agricultural dispute. Yet it is the Christian communities who are being systematically forced off it. If anybody wanted to find the culprits, they could find them living and farming on the land they have stolen. But such arrests never happen. The complicity between the army and the Fulani is obvious. Between Barakin-Ladi and Riyom — in sight of another army post — is a sacked Christian village which locals say now acts as a Fulani arms dump. The world’s indifference gives the Nigerian government the advantage in what looks like a quiet effort to rid northern Nigeria of its Christians. The moment three years ago when Boko Haram abducted 300 Christian schoolgirls from the north-east and ‘Bring Back Our Girls’ briefly trended on Twitter was the closest this situation has come to catching the world’s attention. But the moment passed. Those girls are still missing and the story of Boko Haram has receded from the headlines. But similar atrocities go on all the time. At an IDP camp Deborah, 31, describes the 18 months she spent held captive by the group. When they burst into her village, the Islamists killed her husband and the rest of her family, forcibly converted her and ‘married’ her off to one of their 20-year-old fighters. He complained about her bad temper and argumentativeness, but he still raped her, producing the nine-month-old boy now suckling at her breast. A Christian pastor has urged her to love and cherish the boy as though he was her murdered husband. The first time she escaped from Boko Haram, she was recaptured and lashed 80 times as punishment. At least she is now unafraid of death. ‘What sort of death would I be running from?’ she asks. ‘I have already died once.’ At night, she says, a military plane would sometimes appear over Boko Haram’s camp and drop off supplies. ‘Look what powerful friends we have,’ her husband would boast as he pointed to the lights in the sky above. Even if the Nigerian army does not support Boko Haram, elements of it certainly do. Whenever an actual operation against the group is planned, they are always tipped off by forces within the country’s security apparatus. Nigerians have their own view as to what is really going on: a suspicion fuelled again as I leave one IDP camp at sunset and news comes in that another camp to the east has just been bombed by the Nigerian military, killing and maiming scores of people. The army later apologises for this ‘error’.But the bigger picture is not about error. If the international community meant anything by its promises such as the UN’s ‘responsibility to protect’ doctrine, then what is happening could not go on. But the international community is uninterested. Governments like ours are uninterested. The world’s media is uninterested. At morning service in the city of Jos, the congregation sing and pray using the 19th-century hymnals and prayer books by which their faith was delivered. When we reach the plea to ‘Deliver us from the hands of our enemies’, the closely packed room hums with the literalness of the words. The Christians of Nigeria are alone. Even if we do not care about this, we ought to know. |
Sure. When offline is jagajaga people must protest online. wizkidblogger: |
Never knew I could be posting this. But sometimes you just can't tell. They said it was Akpabio that sponsored Tuface for the protest. Nigerians said even if it was Ababio, enough is enough. They said Tuface was an illiterate, Nigerians said thank God he was not a jobless man with 20 degrees and no job. #chronicunemployment. They said Tuface chop too. Nigerians said it isn't about Tuface SUVs, it is about the fact that you promised us N45 petrol. They brought some Professor, apprentice HNN or is it Sister Kemi wannabes to come attack someone young enough to be their grandchild. They said Tuface was 'morally unfit' to lead a protest because God blessed him with lovely kids and lovers (but he no has a super lover. Shoutout Annie!). Nigerians said compared to the liars, killers, murderers, ritualists, forgers, drug barons, paedophiles, terrorists we parade daily as political leaders, Tuface by all standards is an Angel, a model to many. Then they came up with #IStandWithBuhari. Nigerians said no problem. You can stand till your legs break with someone who is enjoying 24hrs electricity supply, security, good infrastructure in another man's or queen's nation. Nigerians said #IStandWithNigeria. Hooligans like #IStandwithBuhari fixed their own 'protest' on Feb 5th. Nigerians said thank God there is another day. Do your yeye. Today the police boss who said he stood with Tuface protest before has turned around to say he isn't with us again. They think they are smart. They think tarnishing Tuface would work. They brought Abasha, Agbaya, Nonentities to come tarnish Tuface's name. But Nigerians didn't bother. The extent that Nigerians have united at this time without any party, or charlatan rallying a fake protest like the politically motivated protests of a few years ago (remember the one were singing and dancing and drinking pure water?) is AMAZING. PROTEST or no PROTEST. It is clear that it is a revolution in the making. It is the February Revolution. It is now, or slavery. |
'They protested' for days some years back only to end up being used by corruption (opposition then) to bring worse ills and corruption in. That first protest was a sham, sponsored by power-by-force people. This is the authentic. We call it Febrevolution. The February Revolution. Jesusloveyou: |
APC style. Make legal illegal and then arrest. In other words if Tuface goes ahead with the protest, they will arrest and 'Nnamdi-Kaluize' him before an Okrika judge. Don't worry. You think you are smart? Nigerians will show you why they fear them the world over. APC, Shame! |
If am the judge, I will adjourn till 2117. These are the sort of cases that wastes the court's resources. |
Everyone knows it is old news. It is a reminder to those who sheepishly chant or is it bleat #IstandwithBuhari. If a man's wife of 27 years saw fire on the mountain months ago then you should know you are on your own standing with him. Drversatile: |
