Serious Chaos Currently Happening In Lafia, Nassarawa State by beautycrush24(f): 1:14am On Jul 23, 2016
It's 01:01am and here I am stuck in the road looking really worn out in my khaki all in the name of obeying the clarion's call.

I have never seen a country as lawless as Nigeria.

I'm on my way from makurdi to abuja and got to a certain place at Lafia at about 9:43pm to meet a standstill. After further enquiry, we learnt that this standstill was caused by one uneducated trailer driver who had an encounter with the police and had his tyre bursted.

In vengeance, he parked his trailer across the road and declared a roadblock. His fellow 'hausa' people from nowhere joined him and blocked the road further with their vehicles.

We've been here for over 3hours and nothing has been done about it. The police has come and gone, the area commander has come and gone and still NOTHING!

When will our people grow? When will our country become a place to be proud of?

I sit here and all i can do is shake my head. I weep for this failed nation.

For those of you wondering why i didnt include pictures, there are some hoodlums here with knives and some other dangerous weapons looking for who to devour. I'm sure the sight of someone taking pictures would fire up their anger and i'm not ready to be the first casualty recorded here tonight.

Pray for Nigeria and pray for her people!

When someone said Nigeria is a Zoo, we called for his head.

If an Igbo man did this even in Onitsha, you would have seen the military men blazing out of the barracks as if a war is going on.

the current situation is that we're still on standstill by one fool.

People are there pleading with the idiots and they still insist that nobody is moving an inch.

Are there no armies in this region? Or they dont want to come out cos its 'their people' that are involved?

You are one of Nigeria's problem. Police shot at a truck driver which lead to a protest by fellow truck drivers and all you could deduce was his ethnic group. As a youth corper you are meant to sweep aside that mentality and integrate with other Nigerians for more cultural understanding. What if the driver shot was from your own ethnic group or even happens to be your blood relative? Change from tribalism for good.

U are d major problem of Nigeria. People like u who refuse to accept the fact that tribal war exists everywhere. How can we solve a problem when we have failed to acknowledge first that its a problem?

Wake up from your slumber. You're not here presently. So you have no idea what's happening. It's not a hidden fact that when an hausa man is in a fight, his 'brothers' come to his aid by fighting off d others regardless of whether he is d one at fault.

Sweep that pointless thought of yours about cultural understanding nonsense under your bedraggled carpet. You want her to get herself killed? Like you don't know Hausa people behave like brainless mofos. Remember Nigeria is but a mere country and not a NATION - certainly not worth dying for angry

Still I am disappointed at you, that is the mentality must of you people have about HAUSAS. I don't want to dabble into much argument, as earlier said you are disappointment to NYSC scheme as a whole. Sentiment has beclouded our reasoning, is it not in ABA one Hausa man killed an Igbo guy, the hausa guy was immediately killed by ABA boys. Sentiment, sectionalism, favouristism, Nepotism is a National problem. So you want to tell me things as such don't exist in your area if not worst? Be an agent of National integration, not scattering.

Go and sleep niccur. If it was another tribe man, quote me anywhere. The police and Nigerian army would av come for his head in just a matter of minutes. Tell me where in d south u av seen such, cos police shot ur tire, u block road. Wen no be say the police shoot you. Who born u well to block road. This one the police head came and saw the hausa boys and left, army is no where to be found.
And this is the root of corruption- double morality. Where a section of people in a country are been treated differently from another section. U may feign ignorance to it. But that is the truth. Except u av not stayed in both part of the divide-(North and South).

And I ask u again, tell me who will born someone from the south well to blockroad cos they shot his tire.

People supporting this tribalism by the government to put d north ahead of the south. Will face their doom one day.

Quote me anywhere.

Don't mind them, majority of those Hausa guys lack home training and parental care. No love in their heart as a result of Almagiri training. Very violent set of people and if you take notice of those Hausa okada men and other artisans you'll see violent and hate in their eyes due to they have their brother in power now. I blame this present government for Nigeria problems and increased in division amongst the various tribes due to their nepotism and bigotry. If we keep lying to ourself in the area of bad and outdated cultural practices we won't move forward as a nation. Everything is not always about politics, it pains me a lot when I compare our level of reasoning to the western worlds. Our previous leaders made it possible that large percentage of the populace are poor so as to get ready subject for their nefarious political activities. Please let's change our reasonings to a more issue resolving reasoning. Thanks and goodmorning.

All of una really needs deliverance.... So what has d other road users got to do with d police who caused the initial standstill. I dont know if U have any idea how these tanker/trailer drivers operate on the roads but I'm pretty sure he was refusing to stop for the police to have shot out his tire. Our politicians have sacrificed the brains of ur likes on the alter tribalism in dat some of u can't seem to reason and look at facts first without raising tribal hell. From ur comments, it's obvious to say d driver was right to have delayed ppl for over 4 hours and eventually turning resorting to collecting tolls from other road users in d end.. And d fact dat dey are always quick to draw their 'swords" at d slightest provocation is also normal I guess? Talking about the problems of dis nation has to include ur likes.

everytime u guys refer to nigeria as a failed nation i wonder what u people living in it are,a failed people i guess.u see the truck driver might have caused u inconvinience but i tell u if u ask well u did be told dat his tyres were burst by the police because he refused to give them bribe.the truck driver just went the unconventional way to make sure he is paid the money for his tyre. Those police men are notorious for forcing drivers to give them bribes,like abagworo said integration is what is needed from u as a corper and nt yaping abt ethnic stuffs at the slightest expirience because it puts u as someone that has already developed a dislike for particular ethnic group in her heart already.
