If someone should stand up to protest on their behalf now, they will organise a counter protest against that person. They will accuse you of trying to remove prophet Buhari

SATAN OF SOKOTO should stop playing to gallery and do the needful. Call out the sponsors of terrorism in Nigeria and shame them. He has the power and influence, so I need nothing that's stopping him if not hypocrisy and double standard. Useless people in Nigeria.

That wouldn't make sense because the east has the least child trafficking cases in Nigeria, and the least crime cases in Nigeria as a whole. The north is known for their bandits and it's a very big issue.

I think you should focus on what is ruining the north and the west before coming to attack the east; nowhere in the article did they mention east, but your immense obsession with the east (Igbos) will make you mention them.

Anyways, I seriously don't know why you guys just can't stop thinking about the Igbos. They are not your problem, your politicians are your problem, the moment we wake up from tribal sentiments, the earlier we progress as a nation.

These are the kinds of things that will make us more divided, and make the din for the Biafra that you so much despise. Please stop this tribal sentiments, before I say something that will lead me to ban again, and will hurt you internally.

This is just like saying East is the land of child trafficking nothing else.

The Sultan of Sokoto, Alhaji Sa’ad Abubakar, on Thursday lamented the high rate of insecurity in the North, saying it was the worst place in the country to live.

The Sultan, who stated this at the fourth quarterly meeting of the Nigeria Inter-Religious Council in Abuja, said bandits were fast overrunning the North as residents slept with their eyes open.

The meeting had as its theme, ‘Questioning for peace in the challenges of insecurity and COVID-19’. While describing the North as the worst place to live, he said that bandits had become daring.

He said they moved from house to house, village to village, market to market, with AK-47 rifles openly, purchasing foodstuffs and other items and even collecting change without any challenge from the security agencies.

The foremost traditional ruler stated that the security system in the North had completely collapsed.

He said, “Security situation in Northern Nigeria has assumed a worrisome situation. Few weeks ago, over 76 persons were killed in a community in Sokoto in a day. I was there with the governor to commiserate with the affected community.

“Unfortunately, you don’t hear these stories in the media because it’s in the North. We have accepted the fact that the North does not have strong media to report the atrocities of these bandits.

“People think North is safe but that assumption is not true. In fact, it’s the worst place to be in this country because bandits go around in the villages, households and markets with their AK 47 and nobody is challenging them.

“They stop at the market, buy things, pay and collect change, with their weapons openly displayed. These are facts, I know because I am at the centre of it.

“I am not only a traditional ruler, I am also a religious leader. So, I am in a better place to tell the story. I can speak for the North in this regard because I am fully aware of the security challenges there. We have to sincerely and seriously find solutions to the problem, otherwise, we will find ourselves soon, in a situation where we would lose sleep because of insecurity.”

The Catholic Archbishop of Abuja Diocese, Ignatius Kaigama, outlined a code of conduct for both Christians and Muslims in Nigeria.

He said, “We Christians and Muslims must avoid imposing our religious views on others or denying them public amenities, jobs or influential positions because they don’t belong to our faith.

“Merit, not the vigour of our religious piety or affiliation should determine all we do or get in this country. We should not unjustly or corruptly deprive others of their rights, not to talk of wounding or killing anyone for economic or partisan political interests or because of blind religious zeal.

“It is preposterous that Nigerians clamouring for their rights and privileges from government would turn their anger on religious institutions by attacking Churches and Mosques, instigating Christians and Muslims to turn against one another or to destroy public amenities and infrastructure.

“We understand that the budget for national and state security is huge. Let us not deceive ourselves that the bigger the budget the more peace will flow. Weapons don’t bring peace.

What we need is a change of attitude, a conversion of heart; an objective appraisal of the religious or ethnic indoctrination we perhaps were subjected to in schools or at home. If we are only propelled by religious interests that exclude others we shall always remain in chaos and darkness.

The President, Christian Association of Nigeria and co-Chairman of NIREC, Dr Samson Ayokunle, while thanking God for saving the nation from the COVID-19 pandemic, compared to other countries, urged government to always tackle problem before it degenerated.

He asked the government to quickly reverse the recent decision to hike the price of electricity and fuel.

Ayokunle said, “That’s not what we send them to do for us. The decision, evidently, has added to our pains and they should reverse it as quickly as possible.

“The development that led to #EndSARS protest was quite unfortunate, and one of that development is police brutality which ought to be addressed before now.

“We have never witnessed such a mass action in Nigeria before. People were frustrated and because those in power didn’t respond appropriately until it degenerated to that level.

“But attributing the actions of the angry youths to a particular religion or ethnic group is insincere and unsafe. No religious group was exempted from the effect of the protest. The action was a spontaneous action that cannot be attributed to any religion or ethnic group.”

The Secretary to the Government of the Federation, Boss Mustapha, regretted that the nation was still faced with insecurity despite the government’s efforts.

“Today, despite all efforts including the deployment of enormous resources, our country still faces a measure of insecurity which is impacting negatively on our economy, social life, education of children and young persons, investment and remains a threat to lives and livelihood,” he said.

No doubt the Sultan is saying the truth.

The insecurity problems in the north surpasses that of the southern part of Nigeria.

But the north is greedy to keep the current lopsided federalism that is not working.

Look at the security agencies at the federal level, all the top positions are occupied by officers of northern origin from customs, to police, to army, to civil defence, to airforce name it.

It is all northerner that are having a field day with security offices.

Yet a prominent northerner is crying foul that the north is going through its worst security challenges in history.

Why are northerner afraid of RESTRUCTURING?

Even Governor El Rufai is talking from both sides of his mouth.

The last time I heard Governor El Rufai of Kaduna state speaks was when he was saying that southerners were insulting northerners and making derogatory remark about the north that they are against restructuring.

If the north want to kick start restructuring they should do it unconditionally without beating around the bush.

Enough of El Rufai double speaking.

I pray all this will stop one day. This is the time for all Nigeria to see our self as one nation and put religious,political, and tribe issue apart. According to Emily Durkin he see society as a place where all the sector like Education,Health, Security, etc are working together if one sector is affected then the whole sector crumble.

The north has allowed extremist ideology to be preached in its mosques for decades

The target was Christians. So churches were burnt and babies ripped out of their pregnant mothers. Sanusi Lamido Sanusi oversaw the beheading of a Christian igbo man in kano. That same Sanusi is now crying out about extremism they helped sow.

Now churches have been burnt and several tribes driven back south or killed. But those same depraved people you raised still exist and have children brought up under the same ideology. Some animals devour their mothers for nutrition. The north raised humans as animals, so they don't emote like regular humans. They are now eating up their mother, the north.

And if you say foreigners are included, remember they have always used foreigners to boost votes in elections. They have always invited fire brand preachers/ideologies from other countries, from Nyas to shiitism.

Eat your cake. You baked it. Lay on the bed, you made it. It will only consume you and your sons. As for Christians, the Glory of God will keep them.

That's the consequence of people from that part of the country thinking that they are above the law and the government gives them overt and covert backing. The arewas are untouchables that's why you can't see any fulani herdsman paraded by the police or army for murder since they started their jihadist onslaught from the time of Obasanjo, Jonathan and now Buhari. The effect of that invincibility is what is going back to haunt them now. In case you are not aware, most of the kidnappers are fulani herdsmen who have taken up the new profession since the outcry against their murderous incursion into farmlands made them shift base.
@bolded you're not far from the truth.

What makes you think they wont bring their terrorist activities to the south? As a matter of fact, the rate they trooping to lagos is alarming.....when i went to Ogba, in ikeja.
