Interesting times ahead

MelesZenawi:
Northern leaders have been urged to stop referring to Middle Belt people as Northerners. National Publicity Secretary, Middle Belt Leaders Forum, Dr. Dogo Isuwa who gave the warning also asked former President Obasanjo not to relent in writing letters to President Muhammadu Buhari on key national issues and other matters that affect Nigeria. He described Obasanjo as a patriot who deserves commendation from Nigerians for having the courage to say the truth to those in authority. Isuwa also spoke on other national issues in this interview with TUNDE THOMAS.

What is the Middle Belt Forum’s reaction to reservations expressed by the Northern Elders Forum, NEF, to the regular meetings and the recent joint reactions to national issues by Southern leaders?

Yahaya Kwande and his leader, Prof. Ango Abdullahi who is the Northern Elders Forum President, are daydreaming. They are not only dreaming, they are suffering from illusion. Both men are still living in the past, and the earlier they face the reality, the better. The bitter truth which Ango Abdullahi and Kwande may find difficult to swallow is that the Middle Belt is no longer part of the North. It will be very unfortunate if both men have not come to this reality. For emphasis’ sake, and for further clarification, I’m using this medium to inform both men, and others who still reason along Ango Abdullahi and Kwande’s line that Middle Belt is not part of the North. NEF and its leaders should count the Middle Belt out of their so-called North.

If they are talking about the Middle Belt being located in the northern part of the country geographically, that is another thing, but aside that, we have no relationship again with the North Ango Abdullahi and Kwande are talking about. For us in the Middle Belt, we are an independent entity. Even during the colonial era, and years after colonial era when we were merged with the North, that arrangement never benefitted us. That arrangement was never to the best interests of the Middle Belt as the so-called North oppressed, and persecuted our people. Even up till today, that persecution has continued through killings of Middle Belt people in Zamfara, Benue, Plateau, Southern Kaduna, and Taraba states just to mention a few, and Ango Abdullahi, the Northern Elders Forum President has never spoken out against the killings of Middle-Belt people. And now, he and his NEF members are referring to Middle Belt as being part of their North. What an illusion.

The earlier Ango Abdullahi and his NEF members wake to the reality, the better, and the bitter truth I want to emphasise here again is that they should count the Mddle Belt out of their so-called North. The Middle-Belt is an entity on its own. Our link to the North was during the colonial era ,and few years after the nation’s independence. But we are no longer part of the North,we are now on our own. We don’t want any association with the North. We don’t need the North. I can understand Ango Abdullahi, and his NEF members, they need the Middle Belt because they are used to exploitation of our people. Northern leaders have always been depending on the Middle-Belt to achieve their selfish objectives, but we’ve now removed that yoke, and there is no going back on our decision to remain an independent entity with no link whatsoever with the North again.We don’t need the North.

wow... I never knew this was reported by Sun News.

Lalasticlala, mynd44, Dominique, this should be on front page na...

tiwiex:


I am not sure how to attach images here but I hope I did it right.

I just added the Nigerian map. Please look at it and tell me where the middle bet states sit. North or South? I have always wondered why they were attached to the North. Even the middle belt Forum don't even notice the positioning. They seem to agree they are geographically in the North.

Just wondering.

They are actually in the South but the North knows their incapacity, hence they grab lands any how possible.

That map is clear for all to see. If the middle belt foows this we strong action, the North end is near.

Stop talking theory. Whoever runs thing in middlebelt determines where they fall to.

When the going gets tough. Na today? Once Buhari leaves office, the middle belt may have a rethink.


Some Nigerian groups are like passengers in a sinking ship who clutch tight to the ship because the ship is carrying valuable goods.

Slovenia population is less than the population of many ethnic groups in the Middle belt.

Rekhina:
When we yorubas realise the truth ,we are allaigning with fulani ,because we hate igbos so much!

u said the truth but u ain't yoruba

zeromeridian:
this people have started realising that the only and true ally they have is the SE/SS
God bless Mazi Nnamdi Kanu
very soon Yoruba Christians will realize the truth

Unfortunately it took soo much death and blood of their people to realize this while they were preinformed on a platter long ago

MetaPhysical:


We dont have to believe him. We believe in ourselves! It has always been our belief in South that certain states are noth North but were forced through repeated declarations of 19 states to make them North. We hold it as truth, even if we dont believe him, and we cannot also not believe our eyes on the map.

kwara and benue have no business being north...those 2 states alone should be south's advantage politically...we can also flip jos and and kogi...but is there a southern party? No! So wat purpose does it serve? What does the ''united'' south really want? Power or true federalism? Until we know wat we really want, this news doesnt change anything

Self-deception... Na now day break?. Tomorrow, Kwara will come and claim they are not Northerners too... When you were joining hands with the Night King, and the undead to lead Nigeria backwards, you didn't know you were not in the North... Just shut the fvck up, and stay yoked to your inbred grazers...

Nigerian elders will just be spewing trash on the internet....

MelesZenawi:



They are northerners.

Qed.

Osagyefo/Julius Malema/MensesZenawi, try get some sense. You have always claimed 'omanbala/Anambra', as your state of origin, but from your thinking and utterances, You seem so stateless. Because no Omanbala man would reason as you do walahi.

No dy show the world say you be mumu!

Nothing concerns me about that,just break this moth****fucker called Nigeria

Here is my advice and counter message to Isuwa's statement.

This is a front that the entire South need to support and speak as one voice on....thr issue of Middle Belt.

Let us begin to address Middle Belt and stop giving it any Northern reference going forward. Our joint voices will reinforce Isuwa's resolve and change mindset on the internet and social media. People know of North because Fulani always reinforce the 19 states as North. No one ever countered them. Now that a spokesperson in Middle Belt has passed this resolution to be separated from North and be an independent zone known as Middle Belt, let us support his voice. I call on SW, SS and SE to act along and stop accepting North as 19 states.

North henceforth is twelve states comsisting two zones -

Kebbi - NW
Sokoto - NW
Zamfara - NW
Katsina - NW
Kaduna - NW
Kano - NW
Jigawa - NW
Bauchi - NE
Gombe - NE
Yobe - NE
Borno - NE
Adamawa - NE


Middle Belt States are
Niger
Nassarawa
Plateau
Taraba
Benue
Kogi
Kwara
FCT is also a MB territory.


Please people I beg you this is how we can demyth the Northern population and land mass gag on rest of the country...and ultimately suspend them from rulership for many years while we have time to completely dismantle their privilege.

If we agree and follow this the only region that can be Islamized and Fulanized is the twelve Northern States. Their push to Islamize South will be aborted. This is crucial.

No truer words, have ever been said!
Kudos, oil dy your head.

MB is North and see my reason below

You all speak Hausa
You all eat Hausa foods
You all sew your ankara clothings the Arewa way
You act like Hausa somehow


The only state that shouldn't be there is BENUE STATE

Someone should start the fire on Twitter already.
Let it trend till it sinks into the minds of our unfertilised gametes:

#MiddleBeltIsNotNorth.

Who knows if this is the beginning of the deliverance we've been waiting on for years?!

Niger State is North period!!...proudly Nigerlite

Mightyhaiz:
are u not suppose to look for a kenyan forum where u belong instead of gallivanting all over here like a depraved vagrant?

If a southerner sees the man talking they'll tell him he's a northerner because he looks like one. Not only does he look like one, he talks like one too.

Don't kid yourself there's no united south. Never was, never will be. Not my doing, the people of the south don't trust themselves.

ElsonMorali:

Islamization in Kogi state has made it more North than South.

Are you suggesting that all these regions should collaborate and become a Christian Republic?

Haq haq haq haq I laugh in parables.

Middle belters should be very careful with this so called politians who are looking for cheap popularity.
Igbos and yorubas will never accommodate you.
Your only reliable ally is core North. Go back to history.
Bewarned.

Nothing like middle belts on cardinal points.

Go join your Ethiopian brothers to say the sun sets in the East.

Split. That's the only solution that can make the new countries to emerge to defend their borders against religious extremists with their religious expansionism idea.
Not by we no be north, we no be Biafra, we no be Oduduwa.

What have you gained when you still share same country with those who want to wipe away your culture and faith?

Don't say what you don't know. We're NOT northerners!

Arexit:
Please list the middle belt states let’s see how much sense you are making

Is it the number of states that make up a particular region?

Gowon and Danjuma come and see your brothers saying all your efforts are in vain!

Celebsnews:

Islamization in Kogi state has made it more North than South.

Not so. There are lots of moslems in the western part if the southwest region. That doesn't make them northerners, does it? Especially Kwara.

Arexit:

Niger, Kwara, Kogi, Nassarawa, Plateau, Benue

Do not worry.
A time will come what will be applicable for survival will be,
"the enemy of my enemy is my friend".
Alright!
