Like you've rightly pointed out....

The government is fully aware of their role and so you can't touch them...


Recently in Plateau massacre... The army said they received no order 5o take any action... And the paramount ruler who received the news that they weren't given an order to take action ended his speech y telling his people not to take action and should let the law to play it's rule... How?


When there was crisis in Katsina and Buhari visited Katsina during that people... He said that the farmers should stop attacking the herdsmen to avoid getting attacked by the herdsmen...


You see this country? Na cruise... Just protect yourself...

Don't be surprised that if a bandit comes to your house to kidnap you and you eventually defend yourself and probably wound the bandit that you might be jail for fighting back.?

Thats to show the kind of docile leaders we have. Since there is rumour that the army have orders not to defend the people, what those traditional leaders ought to do is to start mobilizing the youths for self defense.

That is why all Igbos need to support ESN because it will be so bloody next year. Know this and know peace.

Am not really a fan of ESN, esp when they turned to UGM. But one thing am foreseeing is that if the fights eventually escalate, at least we have ESN to be like a form of defense before other youths and arms can be mobilized.

Interesting

Hmmmmm

This is more like narrow escape.

Lalasticlala.

The truth remain Buhari is a terrorist

A friend of mine who is still serving told me about these swarms of upto 200 bike riding bandits in Zamfara and I thought he was over exaggerating...In his words when they come like that his unit just goes under cover till they pass because dem too plenty ...now you have confirmed he was not exaggerating

God help us

This is chilling...we are on our own in this country. Do we even have a country?

They're probably being threatened.

He wasnt exaggerating. These guys have a very strong force. Jokes apart, if all the different bandits group decide to come together and attack the state capital, they can wreck serious havoc in just one day and I can comfidently say that all the security forces we have in Zamfara cant stop them.

How abt their people in senate and HOR, how abt the gov, how abt their people in the army... Is it that they cant come together to find a way to defend their land.

Like I told you, threatened.
To fight a system more powerful than you is not an easy feat, especially when you consider you’ll likely fail without making a scratch.

There may be people willing to fight, but since they can’t fight alone you don’t know who to trust. Someone needs to take an initiative so other willing parties can rally to the cause, and the gods help you the willing parties are large enough. otherwise you’ll be dealt so harshly with that it’ll kill other’s resolve for years.

So it’s easier to be quiet and get paid for your silence than get wasted for “nothing “

Seriously, all our government officials care abt is their pocket and political ambition.

FarahAideed:


He is definitely behind them

You are not far from the truth.

Firstly we give thanks that you and your friends got back safe and sound.

It truly amazes me how some Nigerians think and reason. How can anyone in this country not know that the govt at both state and federal level are hands and glove in co-operation with the so called bandits. The 'bandits' are basically a fulani militia. They are the armed wing of the Fulani nationalists who currently rule Nigeria. Their ultimate aim is the total domination of the the land mass called Nigeria. To finish the jihad began by Dan Fodio. Those who have ears let them hear.
2023 you will see the just how ruthless these people are.

Friday 23rd July we went for our colleagues marriage at Sokoto. The journey to sokoto was all sweet and smooth. You know, that moment when you are traving with your guys (about 5 of us) gisting laughing and playing music. We got to sokoto safely, lodged in a hotel that is not too far frm UDUS. The following day we attended the marriage ceremony, played our part and retired back to our hotel.

Then on sunday morning around 8am, we left sokoto heading to our base. As usual, the journey was going smooth until we were almost approaching Zamfara. As we were moving, one of us noticed that cars arent coming from the opposite traffic, so we all became alert. Though we weren't hearing any gunshots. We reduced our speed a little, but decided to continue the journey as there were other vehicle behind us and a bus belonging to Kano Line in front of us.

Few kilometres later, we noticed some bikes parked by the side of the road. About 6 of them with some people standing beside it. We didnt really take them serious. As we continue to move, the numbers of bike and people we see kept increasing. Then one of pointed our that these guys beside the bike were carrying AK-47s. That was when it downed on us that they are bandits Thank God for the bus in front of us that kept moving at a slow pace, so we were just following it. Then we saw them in numbers. I can say more than 50 of them each fully armed. Some with AKs, some with a much longer gun, some with chain bullets wrap around there neck. They were just by the roadside. We were about four vehicles moving, but those bandits didnt even mind us.

You will go for Wedding in a lion's den come here dey tell us story we all know already. Next weekend, get up and go check how the roads are then, come and update this thread

Me sef I see his journey to Sokoto as a risky journey. I leave in the north too and I have made it as a policy of not traveling out side the state for any ceremonial reason. If you in invite for an occasion, the only thing I will do is to send money to you and wish you well. Whenever I want to travel to see my people, I gather money bad enter flight. The risk on our road is too much. Bad roads plus insecurity.

.

Well,


.

Honestly, hearing stories of insurgencies here and there should bother the people at the helms of affairs. But No! They all kept mum!

A roundtable, non partisan meeting should be held with political, religious and traditional leaders in attendance to discuss the practical solution to end insecurity.

May we not witness a replica of Afghanistan or Libya.
