Just one call from US Secretary to release them, they will be released but you see tinubu, his time is up

Where's Alh. Akintola?

Nnamdi Kanu warned them but they disagreed and celebrated his abduction and blue trial and illegal incarceration.

They are only adding this line of demand for Sharia in order to gain some sort of unsolicited appeal. In reality, their action of terrorism according to the Sharia is to kill them or amputate them in a special way that will forever identify them as societal misfits. Their actions have no validation in Islam whatsoever. Funny enough, naive christians, as usual, will shout 'yes!' that's how their religion is. And the terrorists or the evil actors who placed them on this path, know this gap between the two opposing religions, so they play the cards so well. Unfortunate!!!

Kudos to the Yoruba muslim scholars for standing for the truth here.

If these terrorists truly made such demands, that means those promoting the introduction of Sharia law in South West should be rounded up immediately for interrogation..

South West to her credit, are one of the most religious tolerance region in Nigeria and they have been coexisting peacefully with people of other faiths....

There's this saying, That if it's not broken, don't fix it...

Those promoting the Sharia law are knowingly or unknowingly embodying these terrorists...

Biafrannuke:
Beheading on camera is a classic jihadist propaganda and not bandits. Their demand for Sharia clearly indicates that a jihadist is ongoing in the southwest and they have very high chances of success because of the high Muslim population, radical Muslim clerics in Yorubaland and a Muslim political leadership in the southwest that seeks to bargain for political power with the Muslim north by sacrificing the region's religious diversity.

You're not far from the truth. Everything points to islamist jihad. God will disappoint their devices. All these press releases are now spring forth, it just a cover up to mask their original intention.

Hussein035:
Tell your pastors who sent them to kidnap people that our shari'a does not include kidnapping or torturing people. They should change their criminal tactics all together with their Christian sponsors

I guess your sharia that is causing problems all over the world.

ISIS, Boko Haram, supporter of APC militias, Hezbollah, Hamas, Al Qaeda, Al shaba.

You people no dey ashamed ni.

"Nigerians, let's all unite against terror! #UniteAgainstTerror" 🙏🙏🙏

mr, Don't spread misinformation or lies, their is no empirical fact or data that depict that SW is muslim dominated in anyway.

That why out of 6 states in the SW you hardly see Muslim governor more than 1 at any inauguration since '99

ekiti is highly xtain dominated, even Oyo i lived in ibadan .. Before you see 1 mosque you don see 10 churches in one area.
Ondo is also more of xtain and Lagos is xtained dominated as well maybe Ogun get more muslims

Buh on a general scale, SW is xtain dominated, sharia can never never happen

MrsAyomide:
I won’t stop admiring Igbos in their uniformity in religion.. Easterners, hold your Christianity firmly.. We are in big trouble in South west..

Rubbish. Are you really Yoruba? We are lauded universally for our exemplary 'live and let live' religious tolerance which is how man must live and coexist peacefully and productively.

We are an example of world best standard when it comes to religious tolerance. It is extremists who must be dealt with.

Igbos aren't mono-religious by choice. Religion arrived various regions of Nigeria differently.

Yorubas have proven Islam is not evil. It is wicked, extremist and evil people who warp Islam and pretty much all religions.

Willie2015:
. It is the failure of FG to curtail Islamic Jihadist thats the problem....can any one kidnap in Israeli and not be takenf down within 24 hrs.

True talk, Bro 👍,
But this Country is being ruled by Cabals - from the Independence of 1960- 1963 Constitution and Partially till date.
Late Buhari was the Worse Offender - how he placed the Dauras( Maman Dauras) his Cousin to be going to Sign Documents on Hospital Bed, while Circumventing the VP Osinbajo - and this Incident, eventually Clipped Osinbajo ,as Non Performance by these Cabals.
Until the Religion Cabals in the North is done away with, because their thoughts is Not To Liberate the People but to makes them be the same for life.
Unfortunately,some Northern Muslims Don't Even Believe in Southerners as Muslims, very unfortunate.
How has the 22- States of Sharia-in the North faires - Economically, Nothing and more Poverty and is that What they Want to Imports into the South West.No way

And what is taquia? Can you please use chatgpt to understand the meaning?

MrsAyomide:
These people are only applying taquia.. We know the truth ..
As a Yoruba, I can tell you what is going on in Yoruba land

Noneroone:
yes, it is one of their demands.

Far beyond Sharia,the Yorubas should not treat this request with kids glove. To hell with sharia law.This was the request succumbed to by the northerners today,tell me the dividend of sharia?Death or life? The law that places death on people's lives by force should be jettison in Atlantic.

It is a big lie. That is what they actually want.

masterfactor:
You are not well informed, There are igbo who are also Muslim. It all comes down to what lines should those practicing each religion not cross

Are two Igbos that are Muslims? Yes. But a very small %.
There are three classes of Igbos that are Muslims.
1) converts; an igbo lady married to a Muslim conserts to Muslim. Men also convert but majorly for economic r3ason or u say financial gain. These ones in this category are more Christians than Muslims. You will see them post videos that they exist in SE. they claim persecution of Muslims in the SE and seek fo4 funds to support the large population of quiet "Igbo muslims". They get good support as the major target of the core Muslim in Nigeria exp sokoto is to see Islam trive in SE. EDO, DELTA and Rivers have fair number of Muslims. Only in Eboyin and Enugu do u have a handful of Muslims.
2) Muslim by birth; this is the surest way Islam is pushing up among the Igbos.
Here, they marry girls from poor homes, give birth to children and name them. They grow up innocently as Muslims. We are aware of this plan. These ones are at the boundaries of Eboyin/Benue and Eboyin/Enugu.

The Igbos have a good understanding of Islam. There is and will never be peace in Islam. It talks about peace but within it, there's non.
Islam is all about, propagate, dominate and subdue. In places where they are few, they increase in number, mark their territory (blocking rds 4 jumat prayers). Then, they test their political power by making demands in favor of their religion. Once they gain grown, they'll subdue the non Muslims. Even to subduing their wives.
U can never separate the propagation and advancement of "true/full" Islam in what is happening in Nigeria.
A lot of fund is committed to this movement by major countries outside Nigeria. Iran, Saudi, Turkey and fed of Islamic nations.
Had buhari succeeded with RUGA/ cattle colony, it would have been say 20yrs for Islam to swallow Nigeria. But as it is, they have a long way to go.

What the Bleep😱, bandits demanding for sharia law. E don dey reach like this abi na cruise be this?

U can't be a Muslim and reject sharia law..yoruba Muslims must abide and submit to the sharia and accept d authority of d caliphate

Thank you and well-said. The problem with Nigerians is that they are not brave, focused or critically intelligent enough to demand specific solutions.

No President will move to de-emphasise the influence of religion in national life which is precisely what we must do to make progress as a Country.

This is because doing so, even as they know it is the solution to one our major problem, will lose them votes and elections.

It is Nigerians themselves who must hit the streets and protest for conditions our leaders must respect and deliver.

Buhari was authoritarian but even he bowed to #EndSARS protest and disbanded SARS.

If Nigerians are focused and really wish to evolve a developed nation, we must move like China with an openly and proudly atheist leader, Xi Jinping, who prioritises solutions man can deliver for himself through STEM i.e science, technology, Engineering and mathematics.

The guy below says it all. Clerics every corner of the North whereas they need more technocrats and educated solutions providers.

We in the South then continue indulging them and turning on ourselves also when we must hold them to account. We are screwing ourselves. Chicken will come home to roost for all of us for what we don't have the capacity to see and demand while we simplistically keep thinking one man must do it all.

How big is the terrorism and banditry industry in the North today? Huge !!! How does it keep growing and thriving if not that a lot of Northerners, leaders and followers, are misguidedly in bed with those evil people mainly because of ethno-religious sentiments?

Does that not reveal the ideological aspect of the battle against terrorism and banditry all Nigerians must recognise and then move deliberately to defeat?

Lies upon lies, these people are not demanding for shari'a at all.

In shari'a land they will have been terminated with these dirty acts.

DatNiggaDaz:


You cannot seperate sharia panels from Sharia. The consequences of snatching, grabbing for a muslim muslim ticket with an emil000kaan touche

Five more years to wail on this.

President Tinubu would be releected.

Go and write it down

Those fighting for hijab in schools should also enjoy sharia things they go together.

Sunni vs shia
Anyway oyo voted for APC
They should just pass the bill and let the Yoruba rest

NOETHNICITY:
I’m Muslim too, but Fulani bandits cannot come from the north and be dictating how we practice Islam in the south

You mean you don’t support the bandits that sharia law which is the law of Allah should be imposed in the south-west? This must be taqqiya

Have they came out to protest like they did for Iran?

Taqqiya, tricks... moderates are pawns in that religion.

MrsAyomide:
These people are only applying taquia.. We know the truth ..
As a Yoruba, I can tell you what is going on in Yoruba land

is there pleasing you people?"Muslims shud come together and denounce the terrorists". These ones have just done so, you are still telling us dey are doing taqqiya. Ogbeni borrow yourself sense and cooperate with one another to solve this issue before it gets out of hand. That was how the Christians in the north kept shouting islamisation untill the problem overwhelmed everybody. If you like, don't learn.

jetguy:
One things is sure, that madness of Sharia or whatever wouldn't near south south

Who born dia fada☠️

if they capture west forget it. South n East will be an easy cake for them. What do u have to fight against the bandits u u as an individual? Is it not the same compromised and under equiped security personnels u will be relying on? U can only shout n vent ur anger here online or maybe u gather mind go out go protest. But what will that accomplish?
We are all in trouble. Serious trouble

iamrealdeji:
Jesus will ignore you on judgement day if you call him to save you because he never said you should worship him or call him God,he never said God gave birth to him,he expected you to worship the 1 God he worshipped and he never compared himself to God and never claimed he's part of a 3 in 1 called God. He doesn't even know anything called Christianity nor does he know some people are worshipping him. He's just a humble human being and prophet and messenger of God who never compared himself to God. God is 1 and has no partner.

What of the worshipping of god and facing one direction, praying only in one language Arabic, kissing black stone, it's idolatry

It was all making sense until i read "we appreciate the intervention of the state n fed govt,like wtf?

Hope government can follow this write up. Kudos uncle Ayo

What Practical Steps Should Southwest States Take Against Banditry and Terrorism?
https://www.nairaland.com/8685199/what-practical-steps-should-southwest

Please, make your suggestion also on that thread. An authorised person may be reading this too and your contributions will be of help

For me

1. Establish a Comprehensive Resident Identity System

The Each State Government should develop a comprehensive resident identity and address verification system to improve security, planning, and service delivery. Every resident should be encouraged to register through a centralized database linked to verified residential addresses. This system will assist law enforcement agencies in identifying criminal elements, tracking suspicious activities, and improving emergency response capabilities while respecting constitutional rights and privacy protections.

2. Registration and Regulation of Herders

All herders operating within Each State should be required to register with the State Government and the relevant Local Government Authorities before engaging in grazing or livestock activities. Registration should include biometric identification, location of operation, livestock records, and compliance with state regulations. This measure will promote accountability, reduce farmer-herder conflicts, and help security agencies identify unauthorized or suspicious activities.

3. Monitoring and Prevention of Violent Extremism

The government should strengthen collaboration between security agencies, community leaders, and religious organizations to identify and prevent violent extremism. Authorities should monitor and investigate individuals or organizations suspected of supporting terrorism, radicalization, or violent activities, regardless of religious affiliation. Any person found to be promoting or financing terrorism should face prosecution in accordance with Nigerian law.

4. Promote Agricultural Self-Sufficiency

Each Southwest State should invest heavily in agriculture to enhance food security and create employment opportunities. Government support should include access to improved seedlings, mechanized farming, irrigation systems, agricultural training, storage facilities, and access to markets. Increased agricultural productivity will reduce economic vulnerabilities and strengthen rural communities.

5. Develop a Community and Neighbourhood Intelligence Network

A structured neighbourhood intelligence network should be established across communities in each state State. Residents, community leaders, traditional institutions, and security agencies should work together to identify emerging security threats and share relevant information. Such a system should operate within legal frameworks and emphasize the protection of citizens' rights.

6. Eliminate Illegal Settlements in Deep Forest Areas

The government should conduct a comprehensive survey of forest reserves and remote settlements. Unauthorized settlements established in deep forests, particularly those linked to criminal activities, should be dismantled through lawful procedures. Forest reserves should be regularly monitored and patrolled to prevent their use as safe havens for kidnappers, bandits, terrorists, and other criminal groups.

7. Swift Prosecution of Serious Crimes

The State Government should strengthen collaboration with the judiciary and security agencies to ensure the swift investigation and prosecution of kidnapping, terrorism, banditry, illegal arms trafficking, and organized crime. Fast-track procedures should be considered for cases involving serious threats to public safety while ensuring due process and fair trials.

8. Establish Formal Reporting Channels for Suspicious Activities

Multiple reporting channels should be created to enable citizens to report suspicious activities safely and confidentially. These channels may include dedicated hotlines, mobile applications, community liaison officers, and local security committees. Public awareness campaigns should educate citizens on how and when to report security concerns.

9. Promote Civic Education and Constitutional Values

Schools across each State should strengthen civic education programs that teach constitutional rights, responsibilities of citizenship, peaceful coexistence, tolerance, and respect for the rule of law. Young people should be equipped with the knowledge and values necessary to contribute positively to society and resist extremist influences.

10. Prosecute Incitement to Violence

The government should adopt a zero-tolerance approach toward incitement to violence, hatred, terrorism, or public disorder. Individuals who promote violence through public speeches, religious gatherings, traditional institutions, political platforms, social media, or any other means should be investigated and prosecuted according to the law, regardless of their status or background.

11. Expand Vocational and Technical Education

Each State should significantly expand vocational and technical education opportunities to equip young people with practical skills for employment and entrepreneurship. Training programs should focus on modern agriculture, information technology, construction, renewable energy, manufacturing, and other high-demand sectors. Empowering youth economically will reduce vulnerability to recruitment by criminal organizations and extremist groups.

Did MURIC endorsed this statement?

It doesn't make sense to use kidnapping to negotiate the establishment of Shariah. This should tell any sensible person that those who are behind the kidnapping are not Muslims in any way. Anyways, let the propaganda continue. The truth will soon be revealed soon.
