Christian Genocide: Shehu Sani Blames IPOB, Gets A Reply by Racoon(op): 3:01pm On Jan 19
These are the facts of the two sides that can’t be disputed:

Firstly, secessionist IPOB supporters in the US are those who concocted, promoted, sponsored and hawked the issue of ‘Christian genocide’ with the aim of achieving their own goals.


Secondly, the FG reportedly spent $9 million tax payers money to a lobby group in the US in order to counter the plot.

The result is that we remain a ‘country of particular concern’ but working in partnership with the US to combat the terrorists.

First of all, Shehu Sani, Bishop Wilfred Anagbe, the Catholic Bishop of Makurdi Diocese who testified at the US Subcommittee on Africa’s hearing on the persecution of Christians in Nigeria, is from Benue State and not a Secessionist or part of IPOB

Secondly, Rev. Fr George Dogo of the Holy Family Parish in Takum, Taraba State who was interviewed by CBS News on the Genocide of communities is from Taraba State and not a Secessionist either.

Third, Franc Utoo who testified before the US Congress, was the Principal Assistant to the former Benue State Governor, is also from Benue State and also not a secessionist

Forth, Ezekiel Dachomo who has been interviewed by Piers Morgan, is from Plateau State and also not a Secessionist.


All of these people have witnessed their communities destroyed by Fulani Terrorists. So, attributing it to IPOB will not change the reality that these people have been at the front of sharing their realities with the international community and it has nothing to do with IPOB or Secession

Lastly, Genocide of people in the Middle Belt has been confirmed by our leaders in the Middle Belt and is not a concoction. The leaders who have expressly spoken about and condemned the genocide of communities in the Middle Belt include:

1.T.Y. Danjuma – Former Chief of Defence Staff (Taraba).
2.David Mark – Former Senate President (Benue).
3.Yakubu Dogara – Former Speaker, House of representatives (Southern Bauchi).
4.Caleb Mutfwang – Governor of Plateau State (Plateau).
5.Gabriel Suswam – Former Governor of Benue State (Benue).


6.Jonah Jang – Former Governor of Plateau State (Plateau).
7.Samuel Ortom – Former Governor of Benue State (Benue).
8.Gen. Lawrence Onoja (rtd.) – Retired Army General (Benue/Plateau).
9.Solomon Dalung – Former Minister of Youth and Sports (Plateau).
10.Titus Zam – Senator, Benue North-West (Benue).


11.Abba Moro – Senator, Benue South (Benue).
12.Emmanuel Bwacha – Senator, Taraba South (Taraba).
13.David Jimkuta – Senator, Taraba South (Taraba).

14.Danjuma La’ah – Former Senator, Southern Kaduna (Kaduna).
15.Daniel Asama – House of Reps Member, Bassa/Jos North (Plateau).
16.Dachung Bagos – House of Reps Member, Jos South (Plateau).
17.Ishaya David Lalu – House of Reps Member, Mangu/Bokkos (Plateau).

18.Orker Jev – Former House of Reps Member (Benue).
19.Samson Okwu – Former House of Reps Member (Benue).

22.Dickson Tarkighir – Former House of Reps Member (Benue).
23.Umar Barde – Former Minority Whip, House of Reps (Kaduna).
24.Iyorwuese Hagher – Former Ambassador to Canada and Mexico (Benue).

25.Taraba State House of Assembly Members (2022) – Petitioned the UN, describing attacks as genocide (Taraba).
26.Hezron Fada – President, Bwatiye Development Association (Adamawa) — warned of a “systematic genocide.”
27.Tor Tiv, Prof. James Ayatse Iorzua – Paramount Ruler of the Tiv Nation (Benue).

Lying shamelessly and dangerously. This is always the mindset. Always twist the narrative to suit their premordial political and religious sentiments.

Tinubu is a weapon fashioned against the North. His re-election means the north will be in flames with more US airstrikes approved by Tinubu.

A good President will fix insecurity rather than authorize and allow a foreign nation to strike annd k!ll its citizens.

North should vote Tinubu out before it’s too late.

Shehu Sani used to be one political activist I admire and respects a lot thinking he is one of the forthright fellas the nation have. Alas here is he trading his conscience and lying to be politically correct.

This was the same man that acknowledged that the terrorists killing people in genocidal annihilation conquest are all northers. Today he is twisting the narrative. However, this has not and will never change the truth.

An excellent response by the respondent.

Tinubu supporters really need to choose where they stand.

On Christmas Day they celebrated the fact that US conducted airstrikes in Nigeria in collaboration with Nigerian authorities who supplied them intelligence. They mocked Obidients who thought Trump would not collaborate with Tinubu.

Then yesterday, New York Times published an article written by a hungry goat in Ogbomoso saying that a screwdriver seller in Onitsha supplied the intelligence that US used in striking Sokoto, and all of a sudden Tinubu supporters are saying it’s true that the intelligence came from Onitsha.

So, Tinubu supporters, which one una dey push make we know how to attack una.

Because believing that US with its CIA, and other intelligence agencies, relied upon the intelligence of a screwdriver seller in Onitsha to launch missiles has to be the highest level of foolery and kolomental case.

But why in the world would anyone rate Shehu Sani in the first place? Except someone who does not reside in the North and follow his antecedents. He's just another political jobber and one of the "June 12 people" who failed woefully when they were given a chance to walk their talk.

So it means IPOB "gave" the FG the intelligence it used to work with.

IPOB is really and asset.

Should the Obidients be expecting votes from North in 2027?

These people don't even care about the consequences of their own actions.

Look back, what have you achieved for years with your type of politics?

Use your head,sir and understand what he said about the fact that it was Ipob that lobbied USA congress members with $66,000 which laterr culminated into Nigeria also lobbying with $9m in order that USA can understand that there is nothing like Christian genocide or even Muslim genocide in Nigeria as been pushed and paid for by Ipob but terrorism being committed by terrorists (who are mostly Muslims)killing and maiming innocent citizens of Nigeria .
IPOB started it is what Shehu Sani was talking about.

To deny the facts that the massacres in Nigeria is not a genocide against Christians is denying the truth...

The reason the terrorists are called islamists is because they are influenced by erroneous teaching which make them view others as infidels... thereby burning down Churches, beheading individuals...

Taking down the sponsors of these terrorism acts is the immediate solution... While to deradicalize the people from these erroneous ideologies is the long term solution... and we will achieve these solutions... RENAISSANCE

You sabi write babablu. Tinubu government said they worked together with USA in the airstrike.

So IPOB made Tinubu to work together with Trump to bomb terrorists in the north?

Clap for yourself.

What most people do not know is that the Igbos have always been in the Centre...yes,Federal...until Tinubu came in.
They have gained almost nothing in infrastructural development compared to what APC has given them.
Apart from the 2nd Niger bridge,the development commission is the greatest chance given to them to showcase what they can do for their region when they are given such humongous money to play with.
I also learnt that the Coastal road will traverse Ebonyi and Abia and some other projects that are ongoing in the SE.
