Nice one. Nigerian army, come and revenge your men on fulani herdsmen. Don't only show your power on other ethnic groups.
I was just ranting. Nothing will happen to the fulanis. More soldiers will be killed next week in the same Benue state. This is the reality of Nigeria. Slave country.

I thought Buhari's regime was the peak of suffering in Nigeria. Buying fuel @ ₦195, terrorism everywhere and whole lots of mismanagement of funds by the so called leader, not until Tinubu forcefully became president and Nigerians are missing Buhari.





This country is gone for good if you know.
Tinubu doesn't give a fvck about anything.

I even thought his son Seyi was that intelligent until he shared room ce and spoke to people like Agbero grin

Get the whole communities in benue armed and live the rest for the people to handle because we have no SECURITY again in this country

Nigeria terrorists in uniform are nowhere to be found to fight the terrorists fulanis herdmen or at least revenge the death of their fellow terrorists in uniform.






But they were serious in fighting ESN Mazi Nnamdi Kanu set up to combat terrorist fulanis herdmen on East.

And idiots were hailing the terrorists in uniform.





I wish the terrorists will leave civilians and face the terrorists in uniform alone.

They will never do that but if it's in anywhere in the south east or south south u will see the army unleash all their might on the communities where they killed the soldiers.
Re: Herdsmen Kill 7 Including 2 Soldiers In Benue (photos) by othermen:
Our land is drenched in blood, yet the earth does not tremble.

Soldiers and civilians alike fall, their bodies strewn like discarded rags, and the world moves on. No sorrow is sustained in those accustomed to look out for the next tragedy.

But in ASO ROCK, in the senate, and in every halls of power, nothing ceases to gleam and there will be no silence for the dead, no pause for grief. In the shelter of the destitute, there will be no silence too, no grief.

We know why it is so in the halls of power. The political and military elites, insulated by wealth, armored by indifference, remain untouched by the cries of widows or the wailing of children.

But why is it so, in the corridors of the destitute lots of this nation? What has made it so?

What is a life worth? A name in the newspaper. A post on this platform. A fleeting image on the television and here, of fathers, service men, sons stripped of dignity, paraded for spectacle, and then forgotten. After their death has earned some income.

I know the widow does not know. And those corpses are not even cold before they are made to serve their last purposes in the hands of those that profit from grief.

She will leave the barracks, her husband will not be honored. His uniform is dust; his children, a burden to be ignored. The state he died for will not raise a hand to shelter them, nor will the officers who once called him ‘brother’ stand in his stead.

It is not these dead men I mourn, for they have found their silence. It is the living who must bear the weight- the woman who must carry her grief to the streets, and shall soon fend for a home and solace; the aged mother who will sit by an empty doorway, waiting for her khaki boy who will never return; the child who will grow up knowing that his father’s sacrifice was worth nothing in the eyes of those who sent him to die.

And yet, the country does not weep. The sun rises, newspapers print their scandals, and those in power continue their feasts. I continue my work. The dead are silent, and silence is the only thing this nation listens to.

But the widows will remember. The children will remember. But there shall be no day, their voices will rise as strong as the gunfire that murdered their father, or as loud as the marching boots of their fathers or the indifferent rulers that won’t look out for them.

But perhaps, one day, this land will tremble, not with the weight of bodies falling, but with the reckoning of those who have been wronged. The day all of us recover our minds and conscience.

If it was the Niger Delta,

The soldiers would have been raping the women and girls by now, killing the men, and burning their houses.
The police would have arrested their traditional leaders and humiliated them.
The president will remove the governor.


That is the sickness of Nigeria.
