The Japanese is actually practising his culture. That's how they do it in Japan- greeting by bowing.

Kano - The newly established Dangote
Tomato Processing Factory in Kadawa,
Kano State, has suspended production,
its Managing Director, Alhaji Abdulkadir
Kaita, said.
He told the News Agency of Nigeria
(NAN) in Kano on Friday that the
company, which commenced
production in February, had stopped
production due to the lack of raw
materials.
He said that the company found it
necessary to suspend production
because there was no fresh tomatoes to
process.
He added that most of the tomato farms
in Kano, Jigawa, Plateau, Katsina and
Kaduna states were affected by a pest
popularly known as “Tuta Absoluta”
which killed all the tomato species there.
The managing director noted that the
pest had destroyed tomato farms in the
affected states, making the price of the
perishable commodity to go up.
The tomato processing factory boss,
however, said production would
commence during the next irrigation
season, emphasising that the company
had the capacity to process 120 tonnes
of fresh tomatoes per day at full
capacity.

Noooo they don't want to talk. They want to bring death and destruction from all points of the compass. You don't start violence and then claim you want t.o talk. The earth itself is crying from the pollution.
War is not about shooting guns and macho. It is serious hunger and suffering of women and children.
The people the soldiers the FG will unleash on the region are not going to be "very nice". They will commit genocide and people will say the NDA overstepped bounds and everything dies.

Then Nigeria will shut down. My people will not take any invasion of our lands or senseless killings in the hands of govt. lightly anymore; Odi is still fresh in our memory. Let Buhari take the bait and do whatever he likes, the victims too will seek their own pound of flesh in whatever way possible and maybe, just maybe that will mark the beginning of the end of this frustrating contraption of a country. Thank You.

Commendable

@Nairaland Mods: Why bring Muslim threads to the frontpage when people cant freely comment on them?

Since the muslims wont dont like Non-Muslims commenting on their thread without confessing their alligiance to the Prophet Muhammed, then they should stay in their corner away from the free world and none to their threads should be on the frontpage.

#NoMoreMuslimThreadsOnTheFrontPage.

I had to come back to like this your post after confirming your complaint. Wtf!?

What! Obiano take note. I trust you to do something.

This situation is saddening i must say. My Urhobo people have a saying 'Iri miovwe uyovwi ghwu nure, a ke rhere erhan' i.e 'it's after the death of the unlucky ones that the war shrines a revived'. I totally agree with you OP.

Happy birthday sir. You are blessed in your new age and in the 8th Senate.

musicwriter:
For real bro.

Stay tuned on Nairaland, you'll hear about it.

Hmmm. More power to our elbow then.

Dams would become history when my new energy technology released. I've just discovered how to by-pass the ancient dam technology and generate as much power from few gallons of water.

Are you for real?

Litmus:
There are some children you can reason with, give advise and they will run with it, become successful and so on. Conversely, there are some children you cant reason with because they are too stupid, shortsighted, immature and so on. These last group only learn from avoidable painful mistakes. For instance, you might get a child who insists on wearing their trousers low so that they subsequently walk like penguins. You tell them that although you hate their slovenly carriage, you will tolerate it since it is the current fashion among youths. However, you implore them to take their study's seriously. But they respond by telling you that they want to be a Celebrity when they grow up. Your eyes does this , but you say, 'fine you want to be a Celebrity, but study for a profession too jut in case you fail to become a Celebrity. 'I'm not going to fail', they tell you, 'I'm going to be a celebrity. JZee didn't study and now look at him, a millionaire'. By this time you're seething, but you bare it and try to make sense to them, through clenched teeth. You say for instance, 'look, son, the Music industry thrives by limiting the amount of stars out there. There are billions of people in the world, while there can never be too much Doctors, Accountants, scientist and so on, Musicianship is limited. Even very talented individuals may not make it if they don't meet certain stereotype'. 'No, no', the boy says, 'anyone can be a Celebrity, i could be discovered tomorrow'. You tell him, 'ok, let me see what you're doing to become a star'. The boy starts rapping some crap.

Anyhow the upshot is that no matter what you do or say, this type of youth will never understand because he is the type of youth that only learns from mistakes. The problem is, if you decide to leave them, confident that in future they will regret badly, the satisfaction you get will not make up for the enormity of the tragedy of their failure in life.

Many of these supposedly Niger Delta youths doing militancy are stupid people that you cannot reason with or help see the failure that lies ahead for their so-called Delta Republic . Unfortunately, I TOLD YOU SO is not an option. We cannot wait for them to regret the consequences of their stupid acts.

Stop trying to reason with these people on Niraland, or even in the creeks, they're too thick to understand. Nigeria has to empower the wider community, win the trust of the majority of Niger Deltans.

'Win the trust of the majority of Niger-Deltans', that the key. But does Buhari recognise the need or how to go about it? Is he even ready to do that? Some statements attributed to the President especially that 5% comment has done a lot of damage in the relationship between the Presidency and the people who occupy the region of Nigeria's source of income. Is the President willing to do the right thing by re-assuring the entirety of Nigerians through his words and actions that he'll a President for all? Only Time will tell.

persius555:
Why start a senseless confrontation. This is the approach every peacful and well meaning nigeria should encourage. Kudos to Chief Joseph Evah for organiing this meeting with the Odua Union.

Dialogue is not a sign of weakness but a sign of wisdom and maturity.

Abi o. God bless you sir.

Fugazi:
Yorubas are gentle lions, unfortunately some think bravery means behaving like Fulani herdsmen.

As for those crying about smile 12, I guess the life of Yorubas lost during that attack means more than the Ibos and Fulanis killed. Wonder why Fulanis apologized to the Yoruba nation after the attack?

Yorubas have the means to attack economically, systematically and economically. It ain't all about chestbeating and making noise on social media while remaining irrelevant in the scheme of things.

As for OPC, still don't take y'all serious. You've been bought by political stooges. Until you do the following:

-----


1. Create a vigilante group in each Yoruba state
Ensure that young and able men, hand picked by their community and LGAs guard each LGAs of Yorubaland. How do you pay? The money that you got from GEJ should be able to pay for this. Demand that our leaders, politicians and the rich in our midst invest in Yorubaland security. Obviously, depending on Nigerian police is a waste of time. What did they do during Miles 12 or during Fulani attacks? Your guess is as good as mine.

2. Use your collective voice to demand state police
All Yoruba leaders should use their collective choice to demand state police. There is more than enough evidence suggesting that having a national police just doesn't work. It makes no sense to have to call Aso Rock when Ondo is under attack. Also, ensure that those employed are civilians/residence of that state. I don't understand how a Fulani police stationed in Ondo is supposed to understand Ondo people's plight during Fulani attack.

3. Send out Alert Letters
Inform people of possible and potential attacks. Let people be on alert for suspicious activities. Guide them on what to do during an attack and how they can protect themselves and other civilians around them.

4. Create safehouses across Yorubaland
This safehouse is where people will get help and assistance after attacks. Food, first aid kits, and other essential tools should be available in this safehouse. Inform your residence where these safehouses are located. Also, ensure that groups are created to go out and help people after an attack.

5. Make use of the Odua radio station.
Earlier this year, I heard that Gani created an Odua radio state. Make good use of it. let this be the communication tools that You can use to spread words throughout the SW. This radio should spread information about awareness, getting help, and finding solutions.

This is what you should be planning instead of making noise. We Yorubas have lost hope in your noisemaking. Show us that you prioritize your people and not politics.

In as much as i understand your point as regards political involvement, what the OPC has done in this post shows that they're proactive and sensitive as far as security of Yorubaland is concerned and this is commendable.

Kyase:
So north central na where e dey for naija geopolitical zone?

You're talking as if Taraba and Gombe states are not in the North. PDP also has strong presence in Kogi, Benue and Plateau all in the North. So face the facts abeg.

cktheluckyman:
Fayose and Ikpeazu have proferred a very good solution to the conflict.Gammalin 20 and bakassi boys would do the trick

Good move. Better late than never.

osabuohein:
sharrap. Edo has more than the entire SE. They're even some that are untapped in extremely large quantities.

Ah ah! Bros na we we na... Edo state no get much as far as oil is concerned. I don't what the fuss ia all about; d tin no get much value again and dey wahala here and there. My people are even praying that the oil in their communities should dry up. The FG has it's blames, yes but Niger-Delta needs purposeful leadership to steer the society away from the excessive feeling of entitlement which is capable of causing a social disaster for us. Take Cross-River for example: they don't produce oil again(little if at all) since they lost some oil wells to Akwa-Ibom but look at what their state Govt. Is doing... We need that to be replicated throughout the region. May God help us.

wastedsperm:
The funniest thing is that IPOB and SS consider Edo people as descendants of oduduwa. They believe you guys are Yorubas to an extent. Are those who u think will accept u into their dream filled Biafra??

Who talk am? The Edo-Speaking people are a unique people; Empire builders on their own right. All the traditional states of the Niger-Delta know their history so you can't teach us.... If u're Yoruba pls stop this claim 'coz i wouldn't want to 'Yorubalise' your own idea.

wastedsperm:
The military should intensify the bombing of the creeks and ensure they level the SS if they meet firm resistance. We South westerners once fed the whole country with cocoa money before oil was discovered and we never resorted to economic sabotage. Wipe them out of the map. Nothing will happen

You never fed the whole country with cocoa money; that's a big lie. Each region fed itself.... Just take note and don't spread falsehood.

VivianUdeogu:
I tell ya ... Cross Rivers state would witness a lot of socio-economic growth with the construction of The Lagos-Calabar Rail and The Bakassi Deep Seaport.

Btw, is Cross Rivers state not also an Oil producing state in the Niger Delta? Why dont we often hear reports of vandalism, militancy and cultism as it is common in Delta state and PH

Cross-River does'nt produce much oil, they even lost some oil wells to Akwa-Ibom recently.

Serves him right

NwaEzefuNaMba:
I want to send my heartfelt appreciation to the government and people of Nigeria, Especially to the Comedian-In-Chief , Dr Buhari (phd snake charming and gworo chewing ) and his vuvuzela Lie Muhammed for giving me the opportunity to serve as a masquerade dresser of the Federal Republic.
.
My prayer for you two is that..may the masquerades I dress torment your dreams, appear like willy Willy inside Buhari's private jet during his globetrotting duties as world supervisor.
.
Una dey craze. ...! Una give CBN jobs to una children now come insult Nigerian youths with jobs meant for chief priest wey be Buhari mates
.
The devil that will flog both of una for judgment day still dey receive training fos ISIS camp

Bros u're very funny... Lol.

TheNonce:



So all along, the so called 'herdsmen' na 'igalas' sef? Okay! That means our fulani mallams are off the hook for now! Na to face lokoja straight!

Read d tin well. They are fulanis who came from settlements who planned the attacks from their base in Kogi. They were drawn from various states- Nassarawa, Niger, Kogi, Benue etc. Fulanis have camps everywhere na... Are you a learner?

koastar:
What you quoted was a war between rebels and a ruling govt but the topic of this thread is a war between different kingdoms of the same tribe. Kiriji war is the longest ETHNIC civil war in history (take note of the word "ethnic". Read, understand and learn.

*For your mind, you don do great research with your internet abi? Hahahahahaha

Was the Kiriji war(also called Yoruba wars) actually a civil war? I don't think so. The combatants were independent Yoruba states na abi?

Onyochejohn:
lolz that's weeds Sorry die

Mtcheww!

tuzeriouz:
that's the prob I always have with FTC: they comment just to be the first to do so and not to sell a point. The report never said that the assailant is male. So why the quoted comment? Further intel may root a female assailant, just may be. BTW, RIP

Are you high?

Onyochejohn:
u sound like a thief!

Me? How? You must be high on Osogbo weed mixed with sh*t.

Jungle justice everywhere. The people have totally lost trust in the security and judicial apparatus of this country, very Sad. Serves the robber right though... RIP Chairman.
