Nothing wrong with ranches but everybody must live in the cities, villages or towns.

We will not tolerate anyone living in the forest or expecting us to give them acres and acres of land for settlements. Not now, not tomorrow and not forver.

The rural economy is predominantly agrarian.

How can you force rural folks who know nothing but farming/rearing into towns?

Grgton:
they should go and establish ranching!! Are you so daft as seen above?

That's better

States should aid in the ranching and collect revenues from them.

Grgton:
you don't have a point!! We don't want cows working in The Street!! We don't live in stone ages.. . Mtchhww

Backwardness is iPoBism.

Aren't there other ways of using this issue to advantage, like ranching the animals by your state governments and collecting revenues on every cowhead.

nlreserve:
What do you mean retaliate? Why do Fulani take cattle to people's farms in the first place?

So, people should just watch them take over their land? You are a complete fo0l. You fulanis are very stup1d. I hate you guys with passion

Hate with passion is not good.

Don't let hate go this far. Have friends even amongst those you don't agree with.

Antivirus92:
fulanis not problematic in other african countries?
why then did ghana give a shoot at sight order?
why were they massacred in central africa republic?
The people fulanis have been slaughtering in benue,plateau,zamfara, northern kaduna etc, are they also ipobians?

Don't believe iPoB and their news. They are the most unreliable source if news in Nigeria.

OBALOLA55:
ATTACK AND RUN NOR BE WAR, TELL YOUR BORORO HERD TERRORIST BRETHREN TO CONFRONT ODUA PEOPLES CONGRESS OR ESN FACE TO FACE WITHOUT ANY AID FROM THE TERRORIST GOVERNMENT

Why is everything fight, fight to the Igbo people. Aren't there other avenues for calming tensions?

Shokoloko:
That's the right thing. If I know it, I would not ask for the source? If I don't know it, I ask for the source so that I can know. I'll go and do more research. Without a source how do you research?

No one knows it all. People should strive for knowledge.
I personally don't like baseless information. Go through my posts. I don't manufacture news. I dont like when IPOB supporteres manufacture news and I don't like when young boys like you manufacture news.

Give me, maybe, around the weekend

The revelation I may make may even make Nnamdi Kanu abandon Biafra.

I'll tag you

BiafIntel:
Why are your fulanis not retaliating in Ghana, the Central African Republic, Mali, and Burkina Faso? Why retaliate only in nigeria? Because there are so many foolish ethnic groups in nigeria that envy Igbo people and make it possible for fulanis to operate with impunity.

For the same reason, why aren't the Fulani so problematic in other countries if not for iPoBic shenanigans and xenophobia in Nigeria?

FreedomWinsNow:
Are you on drugs ?

You must be joking!

Shokoloko:
Source?

You people only ask of source when things aren't going your way.

Akudaisi:
your own delusionment supercede any I have seen before iyi

Where else did the Igbo originate from?

You think we don't know?

iPoB nation of backwardness

They couldn't differentiate a scammer from the real deal

Even Trump upon all the abuse of Muslims went to beg Kings in Saudi Arabia.

Waterysperm:
Tell your coward fula brothers to retaliate now that tempers are high and let's see if they have two heads or their bodies made of iron. Very soon, you all will reunite with your brothers in Niger and Chad republic.

And you will go to Central African Republic or Cameroon where Igbos originated from

Rationalizing injustice.

If Fulani retaliates now you'll come with your iPoB headlines like:

'Fulani destroyed village in Delta, kill 4 people,'

But you won't tell us what the Fulani suffered.

Good points.
But whose ears are blocked won't hear.

superjab247:
Buhari nairaland robot,
So Spain that forgave the Catalonians agitators are stupid and haven't heard of treasonable felony before?

You may not know Kanu is a fugitive from the law. He jumped bail. His case is still not closed.

As the leader of the secessionists, he should come for that to be settled or come to negotiate with Buhari.

abi you no hear Buhari wan begin dialogue with SE people?

Kanu only wants destruction.

As peace is returning to Igboland, just watch as he'd up the ante and encourage youths to fight to the end to get Biafra.

He is part of what's now called conflict entrepreneurs. He chop when people are fighting.

It's not Buhari versus anybody.
It is treasonable felons versus the law of the land.

Isobug:
Quote me not bro.....We are no Children, we know the truth,we no the untrue

You may as well be off this forum, even the owner of the site us quoted and sometimes told what he may not want to hear.

RZArecta:
The drunkard still managed to drag Igbos (Ipobians) into this matter FACKIN HELL


Buhari is a confirmed tribal bigot

And you may not know, the Buhari/Onu OAU chairperson issue is an Igbo favorite.

You are the liar here.

Isobug:
Quote me not bro.....We are no Children, we know the truth,we no the untrue

And who are you?

An iPoB or what?

And what's there to gain from lazy people who can't research matters but are ruled by primordial instincts

Agbegbaorogboye:
First of all, the bigotry is in Buhari asking how many northerners are there and not in the response of Prof Adewumi.

That's beside the fact that though OAU was federalized in 1975, till today, its catchment areas according to Jamb which is in charge of admissions is the western region. .

Also, note that in 1981, a democratic government was in place which begs why you think he had too much effrontery in replying Buhari who seemed to be the one asking all the questions. You seem to think wearing a Khaki makes one superior to other citizens. Poor in my estimation.

As for the Peter Onu story, there are several sides to it but the incontrovertible one is that Buhari supported a Nigerien ( his paternal country according to him) for the post of secretary general.

The effrontery would be much even at1981 for him to try that. It may be possible though for some to try that with the Army then.

As for Onu, I researched that extensively and found that a subsisting agreement was there amongst the OAU not to contest the chair if the OAU, but to leave it to smaller nations.

Here it is either you believe Aribusaka and Daggash or research and find out the exact situation.

There are no many sides to it.

Isobug:
You will find excuse at everything

Just because it it easy to believe what you want to believe

I will like to respond to two of many wrong assertions in the entry titled "My Tribalistic Encounter With Buhari In 1981 by the Ex Man O' War Leader Prof Ifeolu Adewumi, a 69-year-old academic and former President of the National Union of Voluntary Paramilitary Organisation, Man O’ War, in higher institutions of Nigeriua as he speaks to Kayode Oyero about his encounter with Major General Muhammadu Buhari in 1981.

A part of the interview, where he concluded that Buhari was tribalistic goes thus:

What transpired during the encounter?

I went in introduced everybody and requested for logistic support for Man O’ War. The next thing General Buhari asked me was, ‘How many northerners are in your university?’ I said, ‘Sir, University of Ife is a regional institution in the Western Region, there will be more people from here than from other tribes. In ABU (Ahmadu Bello University), there will be more northerners than other tribes and in (University Of Nigeria) Nsukka, there will be more Igbos there.’

I may have called Prof. Adewumi a liar, but found it difficult to address an elder and a senior citizen as such. For that reason, I'd call this view wrong assertions and playing to the gallery.

Is University of Ibadan still a regional institution as at 1981? This answer if at all uttered by Adewumi, even silently could as well be regarded as tribalistihc too.

And no civilian (a bloody one at that, to use an Army parlance) would talk to a senior military officer as at 1981 with such bravado. I am not saying it was right, but the Army then would regard this as an affront. Recall how Fela fared with OBJ/Buhari or Abiola's encounter with Air force boys.

Also, remember that this is a man that had to change the color of Man O' War dress on the word of mouth orders of General Hananiya. Is this the man that'd joust with military men then, I ask you?

The Truth About Buhari Not Voting Peter Onu As OAU Secretary General In 1985

The lie has been regurgitated again by the enemies of truth, especially, the iPobians (who probably got it from those working for PDP then - Aribisala, Daggash, and now Adewumi et al.) that Buhari voted against a Nigerian (Peter Onu) becoming OAU Secretary General in 1985 because of tribal considerations, and he voted some Fulani man like him who was from Niger republic.

As it was then, so it is now, that the seekers of truth would not allow those bent on causing havoc in Nigeria for others to clear the mess go unchallenged.

Nigeria's enviable position in Africa, and as a major funding member of OAU (AU) qualified it to easily get the position of Secretary General or any other position of the organization if it wants; but everybody knows that Nigeria has never been, and it's not because it cannot but to respect an agreement that would in the interest of brotherhood, belongingness, and inclusiveness allow smaller nations occupy that position. It was based on that premise that Nigeria advised Onu not to seek the position, which he obeyed. So, the issue of voting against Onu or Nigeria is the greatest lie that has been elevated by Buhari enemies. Onu did not contest talk less of not being elected or Buhari voting against him.

The hallmark of honour is to live by your words, and it is the gross that break their words. What Buhari did was what exactly Obj did on the Bakassi Peninsula. Nigeria could have held on to Bakassi and nothing would happen. This is a position that I hold. I was against Nigeria handing over that territory to Cameroon. But Nigeria is a signatory to the international court that adjudicated on the case. It presented its case and sat through all the proceeding, and the honorable thing to do was to abide by the ruling if it went against it; which it did and Nigeria obeyed.

The issue has nothing to do with Onu, Igbo (as most anti-Buharists want us to believe) but Nigeria and its leadership position to other less powerful African countries, which Buhari obeyed, based on principle. An agreement that subsisted among the "OAU's Big Five", namely, Algeria, Egypt, Ethiopia, Nigeria and South Africa, not to contest or field candidates for the position of the Chairperson of the Commission is what Buhari honored. If that is what's being twisted to suit Nigeria's geopolitics, let it be.

This agreement has stood for decades and its only recently that South Africa, in a quest to acquire continental and international influence that has brought rancor and division to the AU. Not only did SA say it won't abide by the subsisting agreement of the "Big Five", but that the position must be rotated - and the rotation must start with it.

The last thing I'd say is that that subsisting agreement was in operation before Buhari and after Buhari's tenure as Nigeria's Head of State. It is the recent position of SA that has threatened this system and brought infighting and disunity amongst members. Maybe it is now that Nigeria would flex its muscles, seeing SA selfishness and desire to grab. But would that promote unity, the reason the organization was created.

It is Aribisala and his cahoots (mostly PDP internet warriors) to be alleging that Buhari voted against Onu or Nigeria is just not the truth but highly misleading. But many buy into the fallacy because it is easy to believe what they want to believe.

With dispassionate analysis you'll see that it was SA bent on contesting the AU Chair that were suggesting Nigeria, through Onu had earlier tried to renege on the agreement; and therefore if its actions were seen as not honoring any agreement, it was Nigeria that tried to set the precedent.
.
A far-fetched argument, but one that calls for response, is the twist given to the circumstances that brought Ambassador Peter Onu of Nigeria to office as acting Secretary General of the OAU. Nkoanna Mashabane claims that Nigeria which is one of the five big countries funding the Commission, headed the Commission in 1983. This she said, to challenge the "unwritten gentleman's agreement" that subsisted among the "Big Five", namely, Algeria, Egypt, Ethiopia, Nigeria and South Africa, not to contest or field candidates for the position of the Chairperson of the Commission.

Ambassador Peter Onu, by right of succession as the most senior official of the OAU, assumed leadership in an acting capacity. Mr Adekunle Daniel, former staff of the OAU, remarked that when Peter Onu assumed office as acting Secretary General, the Nigerian Government warned him not to seek to be the substantive Secretary General of the OAU based on the gentleman's agreement. Indeed, he respected that position and acted in accordance with the rules of the OAU.
.
The decision by Algeria, Nigeria, Egypt, Ethiopia, Kenya and South Africa among others not to contest for the AU top job was based on the understanding and principle of solidarity and unity which South Africa is now bent on breaking by all means. Nowadays however, South Africa rejects the agreement and repeatedly asks to be presented with the written evidence of its content and existence.there.’

Nna mehnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnn

I so much love this proverb "Who the gods wants to destroy they first make mad"

I think this is the madness stage of Bulhari's destruction.

The mad one I think are those who think Buhari will surrender to miscreants. It didn't happen during OBJ, UMY or GEJ, why him?

You wait for the next president to do it; certainly not Buhari.
