Good morning Prof. However, this time around it's going to be a balanced civil war since it would be South against core North with middle belt divided.

There may not be a winner at the end of it but one thing is sure to come out it, i.e. THE TOTAL BREAK-UP OF THE COUNTRY.

Government need to regulate social media.

Social media is the cause of all these problems.

Naive people write and post fake informations online to incite violence without knowing the consequences of their actions.

When you start to blame a particular group for all the violence in Nigeria, that group wont sit down and look in idle they will react.

People lives are at stake, a possible civil war will end in diaster for everyone.

So it's social media that has been killing farmers and destroying their farms.It is social media that has been carrying out the kidnapping and raping of women

Social media is part of the problem because people using social media spread fake news which incite violence
so herdsmen have not killed people? I guess all Nigerians are all mad? From Benue to Taraba to Ondo to Enugu,we all mad right and have hatred for your beloved herdsmen?

Ah! I remember the giddy days and fervor with which the Yoruba's campaigned for Buhari! How their girls would kiss his poster. How they did t-shirt aso-ebi's with Buhari and Osibanjo's picture where they were drinking sachet Milo tea! Ah those heady days! Days where the yoruba's poured online warriors all over the internet to sell buhari's candidacy, a man they dressed in borrowed garbs from the East and West but never in fulani attire!

A man they insanely loved to the point that they hated anyone who said otherwise and called them "thieves" or beneficiaries of PDP"looters." Yoruba imams, pastors and babalawo's praised and prayed consistently for Buhari and earnestly yearned for his leadership because, to them, he would rule with hate for corruption, nepotism, ethnic chauvinism and he would be a President for all. They cursed all in opposition and labelled them with all sorts, such was the hate emanating from the very top of religion/religious leaders. Indeed for all! Yoruba intelligentsia all lined up and outdid themselves with beautiful prose in awe of buhari!

You were hated in class, in the market, in church, in mosque, on the streets and in friendly gatherings if you dared speak against their messiah - buhari! Such was the love that friends cut ties, religious institutions blacklisted anyone who did not toe the buhari line. It was a complete wipeout of opposing voices of reason or call for closer scrutiny of the man they were selling! Even their revered poet body-shamed a fellow human being with the appellation - "shepopotamus." Such was the hate that it didn't matter the victim was a woman!

Ah Yoruba's! With all your self-proclaimed "sophistication" and "discerning nature" this is what you came up with? A monster that is devouring your people and spreading his tentacles to those that never supported the "leopard" who can never shed it spots? With all your intelligence, you never saw what blind bats saw? You forgot "words" or rather chose to forget "words" he spoke in front of Lam Adeshina when he openly threw statesmanship aside and batted in favor of "my people," the same people that are now throwing murder, rape, looting, kidnapping, mayhem like candies in all directions?

Haba Yoruba people! You have brought home ant-infested maggots but now complaining of the lizards visiting you? Truly, your refusal to learn from history but to be carried away by selfishness and unbridled desire for position caused all this. You were all swept away by your secret fantasies that Buhari will die and Osibanjo will become President! You were even wishing buhari death too, while extolling his "virtues." Ah Yoruba people, was Janus this two-faced?

Before you begin to insult me, let what I have written cause you to pause and ponder instead of your usual nature of attacking the story-teller who will not tell a story that excites you. Ingest this write-up to incite your thinking abilities and conscience. Let it inspire you to realise that you failed in your quest to use the emperor you installed as a pedestal to attain power. You did not only fail, you brought down the house on your head and that of your neighbors in the process!

Which ever road you travel from here MY YORUBA PEOPLE history has already recorded this event and it will forever remain not only as a deep scar on your conscience but is now your branding! In this 21st century and it's attendant technologies you have repeated the mistakes of Afonja. As you set about unravelling the knots with which you tied us all, let true (not insincere) fairness, equity and selflessness guide you! Ah yoruba!!!!!!

Let's imagine it is true.

What is your own solution?

Fulanis should be sent back up North if they are natives.

They should be deported if they are immigrants from Niger or Chad.

For those who are sent north, they local state governments not the federal govt should provide land for them, so they can start cattle rearing on a ranch like in other nations.

Lets be clear no oil money or southern states should be paid or made to accommodate the Fulani Herdsmen

There you have a solution

Fulani herders are very troublesome in the whole of Africa where their are found, their like harnessing lands that is not originally theirs. The worst part of it is that the Fulani in Nigeria are inviting others neighboring ones to come and harness land in Nigeria. As Colony and Ruga done failed them, those Vagabonds still want collect land by force.

D man is full of double talk. Instead of him berating Yoruba leaders for their docility in d face of this clear and present danger, this is all he could say:

"I’m glad that governors are already dialoguing with groups like Miyetti Allah (cattle breeders),”

How can governors be negotiating with cattle rearers on d issue of insecurity when d cattle rearers are clearly criminals and d cause of d insecurity? When fayose was governor, did he negotiate with cattle rearers?

In case you've forgotten, Nigeria is studded with resources these guys wanna get their hands on cheap.

Beat the drums of war and watch them come swooping in. First on the scene will be CNN, then the UN, then the US Military contractors.

What civil war? Any day the SW region unilaterally declares Oduduwa Republic, the Arewa people will quietly go for their Arewa Islamic Sharia Republic which they overtly or covertly started to establish beginning 1999 when the political and religious leaders in Arewa 12 states adopted unconstitutional Islamic Sharia criminal justice system.

Biafra will go. The SS country or countries will emerge.

Middle belt countries will emerge.


Happiness in one’s country is what matters in one’s country, not how big or how rich one’s country is.
