Gumi has a point....about trump politics..

But let be honest...Nigerians of all faiths are victims of the same violence..

Calling it Christian genocide is misleading..our fight is against insecurity..not each other

greatermax77:
You people can only deceive the gullibles, we know the killings is long term plan by Nigerian northern elites to eradicate Christians and occupy their lands with terrorists fulanis, we are also fully aware all Buhari's efforts to establish fulanis settlement in all local government areas in the country which was also part of the agenda. If the ruga agenda was successful, fulanis would have been launching attacks from those settlements , northern elites are bunch of conspirators and hypocrites

chiagozien:
Story.



They're funding without your Nigeria government and leaders in North.

Ezeama400:
Most useless article of the year..

Why would you pamper terrorist and expect international community to clap for you ?, as if that was not enough, APC officials are busy comparing the victims based on religious lines, instead of fixing the security of the country..

Nigeria is a failed country and should not be existing..

OfoIgbo:
A consultant that was engaged by the Nigerian government stated clearly that there is Christian genocide.
The CAN chairman also claims there is Christian genocide.

I'm satisfied with their conclusions. There is definitely Christian genocide

Abdul05:
I understand why you believe that ,especially when respected people Say it..

So,yes, Christians are among the victims , but Muslims have also been slaughtered by the same violent networks..

So calling "Christian genocide ' in my View , it seems trump's statement overstates the religious side of Nigeria's insecurity..

Abdul05:
Yes, you are right by saying that a religious motivated violence exists..

Some attacks, especially in the middle beit and some Parts of north have target Christian communities...

But the larger truth ( which you and l know very well) is that whether by boko haram , ISWAP,or armed bandit-- effects both Christians and Muslim..

These groups often attack villages indiscriminately for territory, ransom or power not purely for religion...

This is what l meant by saying not one sided religion..

There is a genocide in Benue Plateau Taraba by Fulani militias

The objective is to evict the occupants and replace them

Yes there are many other killings in Nigeria but they are different and separate

E.g
Boko Haram
Armed Robbers
Dangote Trucks
Snake Bite


The specific killings in Benue where the killers come at night and wipe out an entire village including very young children is genocidal in character and almost always involves Fulani herdsmen against Christians

We cannot airbrush that

Now personally I[b][/b] do[b][/b] not think that being Muslim would have saved them because the motivation is land and[b][/b] ethnic but it[b][/b] is still genocide. However the victims identify as Christians and that must be acknowledged

Abdul05:
You're being very honest... I just like what you wrote up there..thanks

I understand...

aribisala0:
Thank you
I am not an ideologue and I try to be objective
FYi I'm neither a Muslim nor a Christian but when I comment of Palestinian issues I am called a Muslim terrorist

Anyway I think it is not honest to categorise all killings as the same
What is being called banditry in the NW has a very different character,intention and logistics from what is happening in Benue Plateau
The failure of the federal government to enforce antigrazing laws only creates suspicion and breeds conspiracy theories

When you put into context the history of Northern Nigeria and jihad as well as clear maltreatment of Christians you understand why people say some things

Again personally I do not think Nigeria can survive if we don't get rid of this Sharia and open grazing. The country will break

Abdul05:
You have raised some valid points...but it is important we look at the full picture ...
The truth is , while the violence in.different regions may have different roots..

They are all symptoms of one national failure..weak governance and lack of justice..

The issue is not shariah or open grazing by themselves..

But the failure to apply one law equally to everyone..

Shariah only applies to Muslims in personal matters and shouldn't override the constitution...

What nigeria needs is fairness , rule of law and leader who treats every citizen equally... Not fear of religion or ethnicity if we fix that...unity will be natural...

So your Govt knew this?, imagine the myopic & shallow reasoning coming from you once again. Was Libyan Govt aware when the US was transporting money to the rebels against their Govt?.
