Armed Bandits In Northern Nigeria Holds Victory Parade , Carve Out Own Territory by Kinterez(op): 7:25pm On Oct 22, 2025
Activist Mahdi Shehu has raised concerns over the growing influence of armed bandits in Northern Nigeria, highlighting their “victory parade” in Bakori Local Government Area, Katsina State. According to Shehu, the heavily armed groups, clad in combat uniforms, staged the event under the guise of a “peace deal” with a local community.

Shehu warned that over the past decade, bandits have caused widespread devastation, killing, maiming, and displacing hundreds of thousands of villagers, leaving many communities traumatized and impoverished.

Residents, he said, often have no choice but to comply with bandit demands to secure temporary safety, access farmlands, and conduct daily market activities. “The bandits have effectively carved out their own state within a state, where their rules override government authority,” Shehu noted.

The activist added that similar situations are prevalent across many parts of Northern Nigeria, signaling a deepening security crisis. His warning has sparked widespread reactions online, with many expressing alarm over the escalating lawlessness and the apparent impunity of these criminal groups.

AI Overview

"Northern Nigeria's refusal to adopt a free education policy was primarily based on concerns that it would disrupt the traditional economy and divert children from agricultural labor. This rejection was rooted in the belief that the policy was detrimental to family and community roles, as the children were needed to help their parents in the fields.
Economic concerns: Leaders in the North reportedly viewed free education as a way to take children away from the important work of farming, which was central to the economy.
Societal impact: The policy was seen as disrupting the traditional family structure by removing children from their roles as farm assistants.
Underlying logic: The rejection was not a rejection of education itself, but of the specific free education policy proposed by Awolowo, which was seen as incompatible with the prevailing economic and social realities in the Northern Region at the time"

Present reality is the outcome of past rejection angry

Insecurity in the North have no solution, this is the result of decades of breeding multitude of children into abject poverty and no education. They will become willing tool for extremist ideology and criminal activities like kidnapping and banditry.


What's holding back the North from descending into total anarchy is because of the south, without the south northern Nigeria would be worse than Sudan and Somalia but my prayer is the south won't be overrun in the future at rate these guys continue breeding children they can't cater for

You won't find the Nigerian Army doing python dance anywhere in the North even after this glaring evidence but once it's in the southeast they'll start bombing innocent people in their homes. This double standard will no longer be tolerated

who are the people that invited the bandits to Nigeria from Mali , Burkina faso , Niger, Sierra Leone and Senegal for the purposes of 2015 election? If you can ask the Google this question ❓ you will get the right answer to your question.

The core North's refusal to embrace Western Education is based on an hatred of it due to religion. They feel Islamic education is sufficient and Western Education is evil and Western or unislamic. It all boils down to religion.

why ask for funds for girls and out of school children education if they need farm labour so desperately?

What happened to mechanisation?

Does Dangote use manual labour or educated labour/hands to run his factories?

Be thinking deep before spinning propaganda. We are not all brainwashed islamists you know?

religion was used to sell it to them by their wicked elites. Every year after hajj and wastages generally, they cry about out of school children.

Years ago, i came across a doc on Nairaland talking about some major predictions in current affairs. One was about the end of Nigeria in 2026. It is all playing out before our eyes.
That prediction is very possible.
