State police is the way forward. Since FG is incapable of handling security issues, let the states be empowered to handle it.

Local vigilante groups should also be empowered. They should not wait for attack. They should enter the forest and smoke these wicked people out.

Lies, Christians were the first victims and targets.



I remember when Igbos were target of Boko Haram terrorist.


One of my uncles Came back then because of it,he told us how , some youths from the towns lead Boko Haram House to house of Igbos because they are known Christians in Nigeria.


In one of the incidents, after those bad boys killed Igbo man at his house, Igbos around there gathered to plan how to send his corpse to his family in East, the Boko Haram terrorists invaded the meeting and massacred everyone.

My uncle left North because they were going to house and shop of Igbos killing them.
It was no more random Killing.

It was later they started killing even northern Christians and Muslims.


That my uncle is doing well for himself in East now,he had to change line of business, and I was the one he was under to learned it.


At that time he run leave his business in North,he handed everything over to a northern sale girl, but later close down the business.
Thank you for sharing

See the way all islamic scholars even sultan are defending they jihadist brothers....

When last did anyone hear them condemning the attacks since over 15years, they will only condemn when it's a political gathering but not in mosques...

Why are almost all the Muslim I've meet in the north which is where I stay like the core north a Sharia state supporting the killings... They only kill Muslims who don't support them killing Christians
you better run from that hostile environment, you are putting your life at risk, surrounded by jackals.

They started with killing Christians, now that they ve finished the Christians they turned on themselves.
Yea

These Jackals have also invaded the forests
Hence the reason PBAT set up ministry of livestock to placate them, that did not deter them.

Now PBAT has set up forest guard to checkmate them.

Members of armed forces, politicians from other parts of the country should watch their back, as they are opening teeth and laughing with these guys, they shd recognize they are whining and dining with not just the wolf but the demon. They shd be 10X extra careful.

Now they have showed themselves, whom they are before the entire world.

So people shd be wary of them, and always remember what they are and never forget.

They have sent this one too..
Y'all weren't boarded about the killings of Muslims in Nigeria hence keeping mute and being comfortable with the situation because y'all are so much believed that the boys taken by the insurgence will grow and become your foot soldiers, y'all should have talked about it even before the Christians complained about Christian genocide in Nigeria.

When GEJ contracted PMC y'all opposed that the terrorists are your brothers and husbands, PMC had to leave, christians talked about Christians genocide in Nigeria y'all started acting stupid saying it's not only Christians that are been killed, why didn't y'all talked since was it because y'all were comfortable with the killings and expecting Christians to be comfortable with it, nahh, we talked and y'all are complaining that why should we talk.

Recently Trump talked about military action against insurgency in Nigeria y'all came out again just like y'all did during GEJ.

At this point I think christians shouldn't be sharing the same country with y'all. Y'all need to be in one country so that if y'all wants to use insurgency to finish una families let it affect only y'all.... What nonsense undecided undecided
Um, you have written well,. But what's this y'all, y'all?? undecided

*AREWA FLAWS: AN ENEMY WE MADE*
By Dahiru Yusuf Yabo

*Introduction:* A Region in Decline

*Arewa—Northern Nigeria* —once the epicenter of political power and military dominance, is now the tragic portrait of strategic betrayal and internal collapse. The decay is not a mystery, and the culprits are not hiding. They attend our naming ceremonies. They sit on our emirs' front rows. They preach in our mosques. And we, the people, vote them in.

We have turned our own ballots into bullets—not aimed at enemies, but at our future. The greatest irony of the Arewa condition is simple: the enemy we cry about is the one we built, the one we fed, the one we elected.

*The Architecture of Our Undoing*

1. Political Power, Wasted Decades

Northern Nigeria has produced more presidents, military rulers, ministers, and legislators than any other region. Yet:

Poverty in Sokoto, Zamfara, Kebbi, Yobe, Jigawa, and Katsina is record-breaking.

Our children still roam barefoot, clutching rusty bowls, begging as Almajirai.

Bandits control forests, while the governed remain helpless.

Decades of political supremacy brought no transformation. Only more excuses. More commissions. More convoy culture. They electrified their homes and electrocuted our hopes.

2. Religion as a Weapon, Not a Light

Our leaders discovered long ago that quoting the Qur’an is easier than building schools. That crying “Islamic values” is more effective than delivering roads, water, or safety.

They turned religion into a sleeping pill, and tribalism into a leash. Every sermon is about patience. Every campaign is about “one of us.” But when elected, they rule like Pharaoh—distant, deaf, and drunk on federal allocations.

3. An Economy of Dependency and Begging

Despite holding massive agricultural and mineral wealth, the North remains an economic beggar, totally dependent on:

Crude oil revenue from the South.

Monthly FAAC allocations.

UN and NGO food intervention

*Why?* Because our own leaders never prioritized education, innovation, or industrialization. We built nothing. We waited for everything.

*Why the South Surged While We Sank*

While we burned tires to protest religious cartoons, the South opened tech hubs.
While we shared money at weddings, the South built media houses and software parks.
While we blamed conspiracies, the South negotiated power blocs and foreign investments.

They outpaced us—not through favoritism—but through planning.
We betrayed ourselves—not through bad luck—but through stupidity.

*Who Are Our Real Oppressors?*

It’s not Tinubu. It’s not Igbos. It’s not Christians.
It is the northern politician in designer agbada who:

Sends his kids to London while yours rots in an almajiri den.

Steals constituency funds and hides them in Dubai.

Declares sharia law while laundering money through forex.

These are not leaders. They are licensed looters in kaftan.
They have been elected, re-elected, promoted, and worshipped.
They are our electrocuters. We gave them the switch.

*What Must Be Done Now*

1. Mass Political Re-Orientation

The North must rise with a new generation of thinkers, not sycophants. Let our mosques and palaces stop enabling betrayal.

2. Electoral Accountability

Any politician who cannot:

Debate in public,

Show audited results,

Engage youth and explain budget, must be voted out, permanently.

3. Regional Restructuring and Economic Independence

*Let Arewa:*
Build power from solar and hydro.

Farm industrial-scale grains and cotton.

Train our youth in coding and digital skills.

Abandon old gods of patronage.
*Conclusion:* The Time Is Now

We have cried enough.
We have blamed others long enough.
We have died silently for too long.

Let Arewa rise. Not by power. Not by sentiment. But by sanity.
Our children deserve more than blood-stained streets and blackened hopes.

The future is a mirror—and in it, we now see the enemy clearly.
It is not far. It is not foreign. It is familiar. It is us.

Let us change that reflection—before the mirror cracks for good.

Pure lie, this crisis started when buhari lost in 2007 and Muslims targeted we the Christians for voting PDP. Gradually it grew to Boko Haram and I can testify that the first set of victims at potiskum on the early hours of that day in 2009 were three Igbo traders before they faced churches and schools. Even the Muslim youths went around with them showing them the houses of Christians and other tribes. It's only we at the North can truly testify that there was targeted genocide. It started with hatred for igbos then changed to Christians and then they targeted Yoruba tribes after most of the igbos left north. It was when the Christians left the North that they turned to imams and mosques. Between 2007-2012, it was purely against Christians and igbos.

Me I no even understand when AU Chairman became an ambassador for the country on when he moved into the north to buttress his claims. Tinubu has commissioned him to speak obviously but he could as well fact check before he came to speak on behalf of a country he only knows from a distance

Muslims always defending muslims, even when they are wrong, this is their creed, this is the problem...northern Nigeria is setting itself up by playing ostrich and training an army of jobless, untrained indoctrinated youths as almajiris, these people really want to self destruct.

Southern Nigeria must start it's state police, southern regional security highway and border and forests force, to coordinate southern Nigeria security.

North implemented sharia and hisbah police to satisfy their desires and wishes, I wonder why southern governors are so blind they seem to be afraid of northern politicians. Southern Nigeria need warrior governors, these ones here now are very weak and clueless.

BH that started by targeting Christian communities( Chibok, Hong, Song, Michika, Gwoza, Gombi etc ) bombing churches and kidnapping and killing Christians?

Of course, the doctrine of taqqiya is allowed as part of the the tenets of the devilish religion. Seeing the truth but overtly denying it @ all cost.
You hit the nail on the head my brother.
There's need to touch light AU chair if he's among the sponsors of genocide in Naija.
How can he denied what the world police has evidence.

VOsimhen144:
Nobody is holding the Muslims not to voice out in Nigeria.
If the Muslims are being killed then let them come out and protest against the killing so that the world can also hear them.

Christians are being killed, they voiced out and even presented evidence.

The government also shot themselves on the foot by presenting Muslim-Muslim ticket.
Infact, only this M-M ticket shows Christians has been and will always be the target.

You did a wonderful job explaining what happened.


😂😁 grin grin grin grin cheesy

I pity Nigerians
Sorry for Nigeria


Now these demons are now bringing their destructive habits down south, they are bringin it to their turf, their backyard. This people really love to drink blood too much.

In the form of:
Dangote truck drivers deliberately killing people there without accountability or repercussions.

Migration in search of economic opportunities /greener pasture as a disguise to hide their true evil intentions

Invasion of forest under the guise of nomadic herding of cattle and hunting.

People in South better wake up and resist these terrorists.

Shebi they drove you away from their place? Why allowing them to inhabit your states? That is a costly mistake. Thinking they will stay and be law abiding is a huge joke. Wake up.
