Castanea:Am a christian but hate all this religious supremacy contest.it is stale.how can there be more christians in the north? What if i say there are more muslims down south? This your new found allegations i because the former postulation and believe of the south being more populous than the south collapse.i can believe that christians are slightly more in the north not in the south. |

afbstrategies:obviously you aren't from Benue but if by any chance you are then you need to clear your head of every form of sentiments. It's not an insult, it's just a piece of of advice. |

Actuarydeji:Thanks for pushing this direct question to him.theoretically in the north without any stats,its generally believed almost rightly that adamawa religious population is 50 50,taraba and plateau are mainly christian states,kogi has more muslims slightly,gombe is mainly islamic with a strong christian minority same as borno and bauchi and kwara,niger.nasarawa is 50/50,kaduna is slightly more islamic,benue is totally christian dominated.borno,jigawa,katsina,kano,zamfara,sokoto is totally muslim dominated.kebbi is mostly islamic except in zuru emirates which is a minority area.yobe is totally muslim dominated.having pockets of christians in few towns or enclaves in kano or sokoto is miniscule in the total calculation afterall there are muslim enclaves and settlements in ebonyi and all other southern states. |

Castanea: You are welcome. But we are in this together. Oduduwa Republic is a must and we shall work with trusted like-minds to emancipate those that want. Please tell your people to brace up and never look back. Our foes are human and do wince when faced with opposition. The north almost succumbed to IPOB's propaganda without arms. They know the risks involved in going to war again. With focus and determination, they can be put in their place. 1 Like 1 Share |

SouthEastFacts: We have millions of ethnic minority christians in Southern Borno, Adamawa, Niger, Southern Kebbi, Southern Yobe, Southern Gombe, Southern Bauchi, Southern Kaduna who are yet to still be rescued from the strangulating grip of Arewa & fulani domination. All these ones have to be fully rescued first before Hausa christians in Katsina, Kano or Zaria can even be thought about. Hausa fulani christians are the last group of people that can be helped in Nigeria. Helping them means taking the war to the oppressors or enemy's corridor. The best thing other middlebelters can do for them is to give them lands to settle and spaces for development (where they can easily avoid discrimination, freely practice their religion and achieve their full potentials)......... This is what Jos used to be and is still is to many of them. 1 Like 2 Shares |

BlakKluKluxKlan: Yes, those Christians who were in Sokoto state then are mostly in Kebbi & Zamfara states now. Sokoto state currently have very few christians, but Kebbi and to an extent Zamfara have hundreds of christian communities. Especially in Kebbi state where the 2nd largest tribe there (the Zuru people) are predominantly christians. Most core northern christians are a silenced population. It's quite unfortunate. Just as the fulanis silenced the Hausas, they have also succeeded in silencing many other northern minorities. 3 Likes 1 Share |

afbstrategies:Again I say you aren't from Benue bro. Who doesn't condemn the killings? This same guy was stoned on the day of the massacre. Do you know why? How come things changed when THIS TIME he brought the bodies to the capital for burial? And you think the 73 was the worst hit by the Fulanis in the state? Why this time? He only let you guys know this time and it's the only good thing he did..... but for what motives? Do you know it's the only thing he will keep talking about to make people forget about his total failure? You don't know that man, you don't even know what he did to workers this same month. What was his response in the previous attacks? OK, he's human, he has changed. Some of us were thinking before now he'll use miraculous payment of 13 months salaries owed workers as campaign but never knew he'd make a more complex plan with this incident. Using the death of innocent citizens for politics, it's so clear bro but some are yet to see cos they're either not from the state or they're within but blinded by sentiments. I usually don't talk politics but this particular governor has gotten on my nerve. Are you sure it's his kind of person you need for a leader? Cos it's that statement of yours that struck me. You don't know him, you don't know that smooth talker. |

BlakKluKluxKlan: You are very correct. There are two things that always rattle the North. Number one is agitation for secession. Number two is the prospect of a politically united South. Like you rightly said, the were extremely worried about the activities of NK. Hence, the crack down. They will do just anything to make sure the country is not divided. Perhaps, they know they can't survive without the South. Had it been the oil is in the North, they would have declared Arewa Republic and chase away Southerners. On the issue of Southern unity, I am telling you reliably, a politically united South in alliance with just one of the MB States is all that is needed in checking political arrogance of the Northerners. They are always desperate in their attempts to make sure the South is not united. A quick look at their activities here on this forum will give you a good and clear picture of the desperation. They hid behind handles bearing Igbo and Yoruba usernames to sow discord among the two major tribes in the South. I am compiling such handles and will create a thread about their desperate divide-and-rule politics. The same is exhibited by their political leaders. They have been using division to weaken the MB and suppress the MB identity. Hope you remember when the Northern Governors Forum visited Ortom and instead of commiserating with the Governor about the New Year killings, they shamelessly accused Southern leaders (who visited earlier) for trying to score political points. The Hand Shakes Across the Niger is what is tormenting Northern politicians lately. Notice that, they never hid their feelings. Some of their leaders have openly commented on the Hand Shakes. You can notice that, the latest press release by the Coalition of Northern Groups recently talk about the prospect of a referendum. Such is rare. The Southern politicians just need to sustain the tempo. 2 Likes |
