That is exactly what played out in Enugu.

The military moved away for them to carry out their attacks on the people and when the young men group to deal with the fulani the military suddenly appeared and arrested all of them, taking them to zone 2.

There are instances where after the military had gone from house to house in the MB seizing the local rifles of the villagers with which they can even manage to engage the AK 47 wielding fulani herdsmen only for the herdsmen to attack after that.

Go to any higher institution in the SW and you will see first hand the growing level of radicalization among Yoruba Muslim students.

The problem may not have yet started showing on the streets but give it a couple of years and these radical elements will be in position to change Yoruba politics forever.

The likes of Amir Sanusi where instrumental in furthering the radical Islamic and pro northern movement in universities with their Muslim Student Society. Today those guys are in power and their Islamization agenda is on full swing.

Give Yoruba land at least 10 yrs from now and you will see religion playing a crucial role and determinant in yet heir local politics.

Anyone notice the yolobas are avoiding this thread like it carry some ebola.

If this was igbo, they'll be all over this thread screaming "Igbos are not united, Igbos hate themselves how can they survive in Biafra" among other rubbish.

As well as given political advice that no one ask them for.

Yet this is coming from people who told us they are sophisticated people and plays sophisticated politics.

Such deluded community

StOla:
PDP is very intent on starting the 2nd cycle of the self destruction that created the legal maze it has found itself.

They have forgotten that this is not the PDP era when very clear judgements are disregarded by the state, who then expect another trial to explain the verdict of the previous trial.

Its just a political power play. Muslims do not make up to 30%in that state to be conservative. Ekiti and Ondo states have low Muslim population and, if a power play is talked into play by Muslim groups, they may never have a member in any government.
However, Yoruba don't play religious politics, its just a digression to create awareness's for their groups

Baawaa:
Nigeria has earned a total of N96.212trillion in 58years of crude oil sales.

Mr Jonathan's government earned N51trillion( more than half of our 58yrs earnings) in 5yrs!

Obasanjo and Yaradua , in 11yrs, earned a combined sum of N36trillion and saved $63billion in our foreign reserve.

Mr Jonathan depleted that reserve to $30billion after earning half of our 58yrs earning!

Tell me how do you describe this generalissimo of mindless corruption and earth shattering incompetence?

How do you ignore this fact while talking about the current state of the economy?

Anyone who says no to his past is living in denial and no good future awaits him.

Although the pronouncement by the Islamic council is very stupid. but I'm curious, how did you get the stats for muslim population amongst Yoruba states? Or is this just a wishful stat you just dished out?

The Nigerian Supreme Council for Islamic Affairs (NSCIS) in Ondo State Monday threatened a political revolt should any of the major political parties in the country fail to field a Muslim as Governorship or Deputy Governorship candidate in the forthcoming election in the state.

The Muslim organisation, which lamented the marginalisation of its members in the scheme of things, said it was high time it produced either the governor or deputy of the incumbent political offices in the state.

Alternative to their demand is a revolt by Muslims in the election fixed for November 26 by the Independent National Electoral Commission (INEC).

The Chairman of NSCIS, Imam Habibullah Akinpelu at a press conference addressed at the NUJ Press Centre in Akure, the state capital, said Muslims would use their numerical strength to reject any political party that produces Christian-Christian ticket.


Akinpelu said with a population of 1.5 million and with over 500,000 voting members, they are ready to determine who will succeed the incumbent Dr Olusegun Mimiko as the next governor of the state.

His words: “Muslims today, more than any other group, are poised to give any political party who wishes to listen to this call our block vote. While we would continue our campaign for a Muslim governor in Ondo State with a renewed vigour, we will not compromise our present political height.

“We will dare any political party that will produce a Christian-Christian ticket. Any political party that fly anything less than a balanced ticket may regret its decision; we will aggressively mobilize the consolidated Muslim Ummah of Ondo State for the next election. Muslims in Ondo State are made bold to say that we will not accept anything less than a balanced ticket. We warn that any political arrangement short of balance ticket will be rejected.”

Dependent because obasanjo changed it from a coal fired to gas fired powered.
The same way he converted egbin is the same way we will either look for alternative source of gas or convert it back to coal.
Coal is very cheap today.

oduastates:
Just bring it to the SW. There is gas in lagos and gas is being flared off along the borders of badagry and Benin
Honestly pity the Urhobos. They have been stuck in a totally since......................
There is no future in oil. The future belongs to those with knowledge and the liberal disposition to life.
