He stated, “The Fulani people in the South-East are not violent and we are not here to undermine the business of the people of the area. So, I am surprised why my people have been killed unjustly like that.

Oga stop lying na, we are not blind Fulani have been killing many people in East and their is no external collaboration for the claims that they pay anything back.

But Fine, we cannot celebrate the deaths of the innocent.

I pray this tribal clash will end soon.

" I swear to the Almighty God that the government is the one arming Us.We Fulani dont know guns.We only know cows and how to rear cows.Cows don't give birth to guns*.* I swear to God , we just sat down and were supplied AK47 by the government.I am not afraid to say the truth.I attended Islamiya and when I finished my school We were given these weapons. I am wondering what I will do with my life now"...

And how does that concern “ southern Nigeria “ OLD EASTERN RWGION

FIGHT YOUR BATTLE.. as a man ..

Don’t look for who to hide at his back and then run wen shit hit the fan

Divide and conquer tactics and sentimental tactics to divide us won't work.

North and Nigeria won the civil war by calling on their local and International allies.

Learning the lessons of history is what smart people do

[quote author=AdakaBoro8 post=99576437][/quote]I feel like there is no getting IPOB to abandon the kind of struggle they have chosen. Instead of trying to get them to leave that struggle, it may be better to just get it into their minds that we aren't against them, just following a different path and we shouldn't fight each other when we have the same enemy.

[quote author=AdakaBoro8 post=99565999][/quote]Fine. Whatever we call it, Niger-Delta republic, Lower Niger republic, Biafra. Whatever the name.

As long as we can agree that this is an all or nothing game, we can only leave together.

Tranquillity360:
North win southeast?

They can only win you southwest.

Bros, North ended Biafra last time around. You can be proud all you want to face reality.

North has the Army
North has the Population
North has the Weapons Infrastructure
North has the Diplomacy

neither South-East or South-West is winning by itself.

Asgard13:
Why are Nigerians so gullible

Let someone show me where Hausa farmers said they’re not supplying food to the Southern Nigeria

Or they’re not sending their food to Southwest

Let’s all be weary of this southwest propaganda that has successfully turn their Hausa Yoruba fight to southern Nigeria vs Northern Nigeria

As I type food produce from the north is being delivered in the east and south..
But west has used propaganda to claim is everywhere in the south

Have any of una make research to see if food produce from the north no Dey enter east and south

Is Jebba route to west or east?

Is kogi benue taraba eastern partway blocked ?

Why propagating this useless propaganda so that east and southern minorities will join in Yoruba fight?

Will Yoruba people join in eastern or ijawman fight?

Yoruba people refused Niger deltA 13% . Even tho was given
Yoruba people has been the human shouting down with igbo Presidency even wen they have nothing to lose

We should know our enemies in Nigeria, so as not to fight another humans

Is not south vs north

Is northern farmers vs Yoruba people..

........ and it was clearly stated by the affiliations..

DSS literally had to arrest the president of the Amalgamated farmers union.

But people like you will still dig their head into the sand to cover their pretence of One Nigeria

FAKE NEWS

PEOPLE LIKE YOU MAKE SOCIAL MEDIA REGULATION ATTRACTIVE

one thing I know for sure ,if those you are lying to don't know it's lies ,you yourself telling the lies know they are lies

Believe whatever You want

Omoslim26:
Esn is a very good idea but let's tell ourselves the truth as long as it's tagged with mnk it will not be given license to operate as a regional outfit

and any proscribed group dat pick up arms will be seen as a militant sect hence come under steady attacks from FG

The best is for the SE leaders to abduct and take over the group and then license

Then they corrupt it and make it ineffective like regular police are and use them as pawns for their agenda like they do with regular police.

koladebrainiac:
where are the dead bodies ?

Exactly. They want us to believe Lekki never happened because of "WHeRe ARe tHe BodiES" but won't provide bodies when they make any claims

The same Police and Military that can't stop Fulani now want to kill the only people doing anything about them. The same Police and Military that have been killing IPOB like flies is now playing innocent when the tables have turned.

authority2006:
Is that why Eastern Elites are sponsoring IPOB too? Because they too have finally transformed into terrorist organization and I haven't seen Ohaneze criticise or condemn their killing spree

Are we not reading the same news article that said all Igbo elders have condemned them? Haven't you seen Ohaneze condemn Kanu on Njenje media. I get you don't follow Igbo politics so you don't know and stop pretending like you do.

Ah ah na.

No be de same Bible whe talk se an unbeliever that can provide for their family and neighbours is better than a believer that can't?

He is literally worse than a Blaspheming Pagan

And thus we in the south should prepare ours. The stereotype of the unintelligent northerners has dulled our readiness against these people.

The Bench mark for Poverty is America is either $10,000 and $11,000 a year depending on the study while the study I referenced had the Bench line for Poverty for Nigerians at $381.75

Tranquillity360:
No reasonable Eastern will join those people in their fight with their northern brothers.


If the fight was against the better south,we know they will join north to fight the better south.

Asgard13:
Igbos should stay out of this food wahala ... there’s nothing like southern unity

Anytime the phrase southern unity comes up. ... it means Yoruba people are in trouble and are looking for those to use to appease their masters or husbands

They mock you .. taunt you.. spread hatred about you.. and will repeat same ten times all over

But anytime there’s trouble in Yoruba land na southern unity una go hear

Yoruba no fit buy tomatoes #200 for five because of an igboman or ijaw man

But they don Dey manipulate igbos and others to fight Hausa

Igbos and other southerners nonget issues with Hausa business men.. Na Yoruba people kill Hausa
Now dem want una to fight their war

See as dem Dey shout cut petrol supply from the south
All Na set up
See as dem Dey shout cut oil and other proceeds from the south..

Deceit is their game.. dem go still go back settle with their masters and come back to taunt you people

Igbos and better south should wake from this DECIET of the YORUBA PEOPLE


NA ONLY FOOLS GO SUFFER FOR YORUBA MAN..

2015

Yoruba people say na only YORUBA BASTARDS GO VOTE JONATHAN

DEM NO LIKE YOU AND DEM NO GO HELP YOU..
no matter how you do

Bros stop. South East can't win North by itself. If you let past hatred divide us they will beat up South West then come and beat South East and you will be crying on the ground

ChangedMan1999:
Nwanne,

assuming it is us that are having problems with northerners this Snakes would be saying:

Children of hate and perdition.

They don't like the building east of the Niger.


They don't like train

They don't like rice and beans.

They hate their country.

Kill them all.

Waste them.

Use them for target practice.

Python dance loading.

Nyamuri F.lathead.

Osu F.lathead.

Anyone they support will fall.

Losers

Never do well

Potopoto region.

They did not vote for Buhari because of hatred and bitterness in them.


Nobody likes them.

They don't want to build bridges.

They didn't vote for Buhari because he was a dictator and worked with Abacha, why didn't Northerners bring someone sensible like Sanusi?

Anyway, if you hate them so much you should be thinking of how to eject Biafra from Nigeria. If Malaysia could do it to Singapore, I don't know what is stopping you.

TrendyewsWriter:
Now, following the current situation of the food blockade happening in the country, one gets to have a glimpse of what will or might eventually happen if the country goes ahead to divide into several other countries.



From what is happening, it is apparent that the North basically supplies foodstuff to other parts of the country, making them one of the most important parts of Nigeria.

With the current happening, those agitating for the division of Nigeria ( Biafrans and Odudwas) should understand that it will pose a tremendous problem if this country gets divided and every ethics will suffer for it for one way or another.

So what? are O'oduans crying now? and we have other food producing neighbours, if they want to divide and close brder, Cameroon and Ghana are there and shipping is so much cheaper than land transport that we can even buy from as far as Europe and America as we simultaneously develop our agriculture without cow to eat everything that we plant.

Ebitimi44:
From the looks of things, we Ijaws had been the first tribe to officially reject Nigeria, I think amongst the three major tribes, the Igbos had been fair enough.

Igbos Eastern Region Cited the Refinery in PH, a city that would have served all most tribes of Niger Delta, Igbos had been in the forefront of Nigeria independence, so it could have been fair that Capital of Eastern region be in Enugu or Igboland, all the three major tribes had their regions capital in their major cities so why do we expect that the capital of the East will not be in Igboland...

Most people think it is the destiny of the Ijaws to see the Igbos as rivals, well I may not see them as brothers but they are our good neighbours, if Igbos wanted they could have used our oil as bargaining chip during the war but they did not go that part, from the look of things, Igbos listen more than the three major tribes, within the whole declaration, Adakar borrow lived when Igbos was in charge but few moments of romance with non eastern tribes and he disappeared, even our oil wells are not hijacked by the Igbos.

The Bayelsa where I live, there are more Igbos in Lagos than in Bayelsa, so let's bare our mind, what is our beef with the Igbos, if Nigeria divides, Biafra will also divide and Niger Delta will most likely also divide so at the end we will be left with our old neighbours the Igbos as tribal neighbours so what's our real beef with the Igbos.

Niger-Delta nation cannot work by itself, Ijaw nation cannot work by itself and Igbo nation cannot work by itself. The Biafra region isn't Europe, if someone breaks off from the Fulani Caliphate they, the Vassals and their friends will come and attack in full force. Alaigbo alone would be easily surrounded, Niger-Delta doesn't have easily defendable borders and Ijaw by themselves are too few, only united as Biafra can we stand a chance against the Fulani Caliphate.

We are also naturally intergrated by the geography. The rivers flow through our lands, the climate similar and the land smooth and contiguous. Imports from port can only be well trad up in places like Enugu and Anambra and crops that grow better in Enugu are in demand in Port. We are naturally a single economic unit. Further splitting of an economic continuum typically brings greater hardships to all involved as it only creates unnecessary barriers to trade and economy.

And of course our cultures are similar enough that you don't need learn new customs if you go from Ijawland to Igboland in order to non-offensive and socially integratable.

However even as an Igbo person I get why Ijaw and the rest of Niger-Delta fear to form nation with us, thy think we are the majority, when it is actually not necessarily, so. Traditionally ethno-liguists would put everybody that speak an Igboid language as Igbo but now our Ikwerre, Ika and others say they are not Igbo, those by themselves would mean that why Igbos would still be the largest tribe, they would not be by themselevs the majority and the rest of the tribes together can politically rally against them if need be.

Another is that in Nigeria Ijaw for example are like less than 2 percent and thus can be easily ignored, in Biafra they would be over 10 percent. Or in other words, they can be mostly ignored politically in Nigeria but not in Biafra.

Thus the question shouldn't be forming Niger-Delta republic but asking how Biafra can be arranged so that the minorities aren't in trouble. You have already established the good will and the similar enough culture means laws for governing all shouldn't be an issue in the same way as with let's say Sharia North for example. Instead, as we have seen other similarly small and diverse states like Malaysia, UAE and Switzerland do, we it operated as a sort of regional but ethnic based confederacy (or federation) All tribes have territories drawn out according to their homelands and cities like port harcourt get a special status like Addis Ababa in Ethiopia and the tribe-regions operate autonomously of each other. Maybe instead of a president you get a council of representatives running things like in Switzerland.

EzeNri:
NBS Yoruba DG had been caught numerous time falsifying data for SW.

The official poverty rate in US in 2019 pre-COVID was 11 percent.

So, Osun with zero industries and only yahoo boys has better poverty rate then US.

Poverty rate in the UK in 2020 was 22%. So, SW the region with the most vulnerable household in the South has better poverty rate than UK?

So Ekiti has better poverty rate than Anambra and Rivers?

So Ekiti has better poverty rate than Abia.

Travel from Abuja to Lagos through Ekiti, Ondo, Osun, Oyo and Ogun and see the kind of houses those that claim they have fewer percentage of poor people than US and UK are living in.

SW low poverty rate exists only in Yoruba media and Yoruba controlled NBS

How can the region with the higher number of vulnerable households (SW) have lesser poor people by a long shot than those with the fewest vulnerable households in the entire country.

How can the region with the lowest income inequality in the entire country have more poor people by a long shot than those with the highest income inequality in the South.

Yoriba Bureau of Stat can deceive themselves not us that drive through SW every week.

Poverty rate figures is Fluid because different benchmarks for poverty is used. A country with as high a standard of living as America has a very high standard for measuring poverty, that is why their poverty rate is that high.

Obamaofusa:
Okay.I am not surprised about SW.They have the highest number of professionals,doctors,lawyers etc.They are the only Nigerians abroad who have multi billion dollar and multi pound sterling businesses abroad and they also have the highest number of indigenous industries in Nigeria.
The Igbos and Niger Deltans are also great achievers to reckon with.Exorcise the core North from Nigeria and watch Nigeria grow exponentially..

What actually surprised me is how badly SE did. Ebonyi and Enugu did as bad as the worse off Northern states and if anything they more resemble their neighbors outside SE than within it.

O'odua is the only part of Nigeria that can achieve independence whenever it wants.

NBS’ poverty metric is I believe was 137,430 naira ($381.75) per year. So a bit over a $1 a day.

thebosstrevor1:
Nigerians that will dig holes on good roads so that they can make money.

Nigerians will steal transformers and cables meant for electricity.

You can't display currency in public because Nigerians will rob you.

Now Nigerians are in ghana doing the same thing they did in Nigeria.

You people love to put the blame on government, what about the citizens

Nigerians are human beings the same way Ghanians are. People won't do that kind of thing normally, they only do it when they don't have options.

Officialgarri:
I think Reno is shameless to criticize a Government who is at least trying its least to face the Fulani menace either by dialogue/negotiation or force,
rather than maintain alliance with the government of a drunk buffoon who sat idle while his people who would luckily escape frequent Boko Haram bombs only to end up in the hands of Fulani herdsmen.

To me, this is not Loyalty. It's dead conscience

You can criticize the past administration all you want but they too tried their hand at ending these Banditry and terrorist attacks.

Every municipality of Bornu for example voted in the 2014 election because of mixed military-mercenary operations sanctioned by Jonathan that dislodged Boko Haram from all their major urban holdings in 2014's 2st quarter.

Oshigun:
And you believe him? Fellow Yorubas, can you now see why some of us say Igbos are no less our enemies than even the most murderous and brutal of Fulanis?

A lying Seriki who many, many Yoruba direct stakeholders have claimed is complicit in shielding Fulani criminals and abetting their crime spree is the person this Igbo man called Juliusmalema believes to be the 'truthsayer'?

So the many, many Yoruba victims dont know the difference between Fulanis and their own Yoruba people anymore? I just pity naive Yorubas. They are the reason we are under attack from all sides today.

Abeg stop. It is literally impossible to know someones phone ethnicity thru online.

Juliusmalema:
Good the man is now speaking because if he remains quiet they will heap all kidnappings done by then on him through the media

He stated clearly who the kidnappers are and not them as widely reported.

We have read here of a boy killing people for ritual in Ibadan..

It was here we read how Osun state boy kidnapped his cousins for ransom and killed them in the process..

Also here we have read about Badoo boys , one million boys and Awawa youths.

Which other evidence do we need to know who the kidnappers where....

They said evans was a kidnapper and it was widely broadcasted though a billionaire kidnapper anyway..

Now instead to accept responsibility of your people kidnapping business, you want to stylishly profile other ethnicity to exonerate yourself.

Who dies that if not Propgandist..

Give one reason why he should be believed over the Yorubas that have accused Fulani?.

He literally has every reason to lie but I will be fair and accept this as a he said - she said situation. Anyway, given the kidnap victims themselves tend to identify the kidnappers as Fulani it would at the very least mean that Yoruba collaborators are only informants and back room dealers.

If the Fula are rejected they will lose their Weapons of attack and become incompetent.

Jostoman:
Their own farm product keep germinate while they come to the south to destroy people's farm with their cow. So who is fooling who?

Don't you read the news? Haven't Hausa Farmers in Zamfara, Kastina, Kaduna etc. Been complaining about Fulani Herdsmen and Kidnappers for Yrs now?.

drlaykay:

How come Hope could invite soldiers and his Lagos counterpart Babajide, during the endsars protest denied having such power?

By the way, I'm done calling these politicians by their surname, they deserve no respects

They can't order the soldiers, as in the soliders can refuse the invite but they can invite soldiers.

BraggaJ:
If what the governor is saying is true, then Ipob has turned into a full-blown terrorist organisation. I mean, why else would they be killing police, snatching people's vehicles and even killing their fellow ibos, all in the name of ridding iboland of Fulanis.

But it isn't true.

I know people in Orlu and they never reported this.

Anyway, I see this as an unofficial concession to all the separatist and regionalist elements within Nigeria as the government basically accepts that it cannot perform its duty of defending life and property, but will still be giddy to collect taxes. A Government that cannot perform its most basic duties in my eyes, forfeits the justification for its existence.
