A Southerner Cannot Be My Neighbour - Dep Commissioner of Police to An Igboman That Bought a Property Near his House in Adamawa.

A Deputy Commissioner of Police, Ibrahim Babazango (see photo), has allegedly threatened violent attacks against one Vincent Umeh for buying property near his house in Adamawa State.

SaharaReporters learnt that the Police boss, who hails from Adamawa State, claimed he did not want a Southerner as his next-door neighbour.

Babazango, who is currently attached to the Lagos State Police Command, was reportedly infuriated to learn that a Southeasterner was his new neighbour.

SaharaReporters learnt that the property is located at 33, Mohammed Mustapha Way, Opposite Ford Oil, Yola, in Adamawa State.

In a viral audio, Babazango was heard warning Umeh to reverse the purchase deal or face bitter consequences, including no guarantee of his personal safety.

"We're a homogeneous community, I don't want you; you can't be my next door neighbour, I swear. What sort of insult is this? Can any Northerner move now to the South-East, say Onitsha and just bump into any neighborhood to buy a property; just like that?” the DCP queried.

Narrating his ordeal, Umeh said, "I acquired the property late last year from one Ismail Mamman; the transaction was perfected and a title deed was issued to me.

"I was surprised to receive a call from a man who introduced himself as DCP Ibrahim Babazango, a neighbour of Ismail Mamman who sold the property to me. He threatened that I should abandon the property because he could not guarantee my safety as his neighbour.

"I pleaded with him to no avail. I asked him what I did wrong by purchasing the property, at least within the context of the law. He kept yelling that I was not welcome in the neighbourhood and I am a stranger in the community.

"Given his threat, I reported the matter to the police and Department of State Services.”

As it was further gathered, Babazango claimed that his former neighbour sold the property to Umeh without offering him (Babazango) a neighbour, the first right to buy.

When contacted by SaharaReporters, Babazango stood his ground on the threats.

He said, “My neighbour sold the house to a businessman without waiting for me, after I had indicated interest to buy the property. Believe me, I cannot guarantee his safety if he insists on owning the property because as it is; we live like brothers in this area; so for an outsider who is not from this part of the country to buy a property in this area, is unacceptable.

"I have reported the matter to the District Head of Jemita and I will also take him to court if need be.”

On his part, the vendor, Ismail Mamman said, “The property is mine and I sold it to Mr. Vincent Umeh; all the documents were duly signed by me and my brother as witness between us, in the presence of a lawyer after we agreed on a price.

"I had approached him, my former neighbour, DCP Ibrahim Babazango that I wanted to sell my property, he said he would contact his brother but I didn't get his feedback; so I sold it to a ready buyer. I have no problems with the buyer at all.” -

And you can be rest assured that the bigot will not be called to explain himself!

Go on with one Nigeria indeed


what kind of oneness is this ? Sb please make me understand

What offence did the Igbo man commited ? No crime in buying property
The DCP is just moving like an IPOB terrorist
That the MO of IPOB

Let Igbos go and have their own country, you say no, Let Igbos be and stay peacefully in Nigeria, you say no? What exactky is the problem? The only factor unifying this country is the hate for Igbos.

This fool will not be called to order and prosecuted because he is a northerner. Imagine the audacity. Somebody legitimately purchased a property and a supposed officer of the law is threatning his life.

For how long will this nonsense continue?!

My tired is tired,one Nigeria in deed!! This is coming from someone educated now tell me how an average almajiri on the street will not finish the buyer once the police man gives them an order to finish the buyer.
If I were to be the buyer I will quietly sell off the property because his safety isn't guaranteed. This man could arrange and have him killed and nothing will happen. This is Nigeria for you.

You can’t have a southern neighbor but the resources you feed your hungry stomach with are from south
Naughty man

From south south

This is why I pity some of my Yoruba people who are foolishly dancing to the tunes of some religiously and ethnically myopic Northern people against the South East for short lived gains
Can you imagine the reasoning of average northern in this age?
Even those who migrate to the south prefer to live in clusters.

You think say na joke?

There is deep seated incurable acidic toxic hatred.

Philistine:

Yes

Mind you the high ranking police officer said he cannot live near a southerner (generally speaking).

I don't blame his ungrateful arse

I blame the wicked evil federal government that keeps using the resources from the same maligned, disrespected south to keep building institutions , and develop this man's region.

VeeVeeMyLuv:

There is deep seated incurable acidic toxic hatred.

There is jealousy,
There is prejudice,
There is hatred,
There is supression,
There is threat.

It is published, it discussed and it is enforced with no pretence.
All these happens in broad day light in this country for no factual reason.

All built on speculation and unfounded tales.

Yola Fulanis claiming right, very anyhow people. Y'all see why a mobilizer of Atiku was crying blood because of Adamawa state ADC chairmanship seat.

And believe me, if the owner of the land told him the price he wanted to sell his land, this hungry Police Officer forming Northerner cannot afford it


Take a look at his hungry face with collapsed cheeks, a clear sign that he couldn't have afforded the land even if the fellow Northerner that owned the land waited for him for 10 years

We're a homogeneous community, I don't want you; you can't be my next door neighbour, I swear. What sort of insult is this? Can any Northerner move now to the South-East, say Onitsha and just bump into any neighborhood to buy a property; just like that?” the DCP queried.

I agree 100% with the DCP. This is what happens when you go about causing troubles everywhere you go.

They have rejected you in South Afrika, Ghana, Lagos, Kano, Abuja, Turkey, India, China e.t.c Yet, you do not want to learn.

And if they should beam the searchlight on the anus of Vincent Umeh (the so-called property buyer), we wouldn’t be surprised to find out he is among the cocaine-distribution gang.

Their reputation precedes them. You said you want Biafra yet you keep buying properties where you have all been rejected.

south whatever

It's a shame that you agree with the foolish policeman.

I URGE the buyer to ensure this case gets to court, for his safety.

He should also plan to defend himself and his family (and property). This policeman may just recruit boys to attack the buyer.

Here you go again! So everybody from the East is automatically a dealer?

So, do I say if we beam the search light into the personal matters of the policeman, we just may find that he is a BH terrorist or a bandit

You see where your kind of reasoning can lead our country to?

See the HATRED your words reek of? What is the crime in purchasing a property? Wetin be the crime

Your posts are just full of hatred and, of course, IGNORANCE!

And, importantly, why has the country refused to give them the Biafra they want (talk for another day).

Bring more of the hatred on. We igbos thrive in difficulties

We need more of these hatred please. We are being hated in the west and our properties mowed down overnight and at the same time in the north. Bring it on guys. It makes us stronger

Philistine:

South not south south.

Have you ever imagined why there's no North North Nigeria But North Central ?
Even the compass bearing that was used didn't apply to the so called entity of Nigeria.
Be wise....

Who is arming bandits in the north ?

Who is arming Boko Haram in the north?

Who is bringing in herdsmen from the Sahel region into Nigeria and arming them?

Who is the cause of the insecurities in the north today?


The DCP is one among the many rich guys in the north sponsoring insecurities simply because they hate a particular tribes or religion. They are those responsible for the genocide against Christans.

If they are tired of one Nigeria they should say it let everybody find his square root.

People like him has properties in Lagos Abuja porthacourt etc but don't want another person to aquire properties in his own state. What a depraved mind of wickedness
