You won't understand what hate is until you are denied a position you merit just because of tribal sentiments


That guy's mentally has been programmed as such and the earlier you make him to give up the idea, the better for everybody. Do you think that the guy when in position of authority can offer any sort of assistance to an igbo person?

This issue of unfounded hate is the reason why Nigeria can't make any progress

selemempe:
is this ur proof? Childish...read it again if u can process it. A yoruba or hausa person has no business going to search for radio biafra address...they are non violent...but if u start searching for their trouble...u will get it....simple. igbos are always on the right side of history....buhari's abismal performance is proving us right

selemempe:
can u gv us an example of when majority of igbo suported oppression? Even against abiola and yorubas

chuckjonesbaba:
Tribal bashing! Not good! Not good! Very Appalling.

Mightyhaiz:
Igbo's don't assent to injustice and intimidation no matter what. Get it across ur thick skull

mrvitalis:
Igbos have always been in support of equity and fairness thats the founding value of the igbo nation ...equity and fairness

Ondo State Government on Monday observed with concern trending pictures of identity card carrying men identified as Fulani vigilante in the Akoko area of the state.

Various claims reveal the activities, duties as well as supposed mandate of these men in question.

A statement by the State Commissioner for Information and Orientation, Donald Ojogo said; “It is pertinent to recall that at the height of the incessant kidnap cases, the Ondo State Government took some far-reaching drastic measure.

“This included a marching order to the law abiding Hausa Fulani leadership in the area to fish out criminal elements among them who took advantage of the rosy relationship between the indigenes and their law-abiding guests.

“As a measure to curb and possibly, stamp out cases of kidnap in the area, the Hausa Fulani leadership was directed to select a handful of trusted men amongst them who could serve as tour guards in the thick forest as security agencies prepared to comb the forests. This measure yielded results.

“It is important to note however, that while Government appreciates the efforts of those who volunteered to provide information and served as tour guards to the security agencies in the ongoing operations in the area, it will not tolerate any unathorised move by any group to take an undue advantage of the current state of insecurity in the country.

“Succinctly, Government, having been unaware of any such identity card carrying persons in the name of a vigilante group, has directed security agencies to get to the root of the matter and apprehend any such person or group of persons operating in that manner,” the statement stressed.

The Aare Ona Kakanfo of Yoruba land, Gani Adams on Thursday evening said they were having different meetings with different organizations and with state governments in the southwest on how to tackle the security challenges.

According to him, since the governors are the chief security officers of their states and in a sensitive security situation like this, there is a need to be very careful not to jump the gun.

Adams spoke in Akure, the Ondo state capital while paying a condolence visit to Afenifere leader, Chief Reuben Fasoranti over the death of his daughter, Mrs. Funke Olakunrin, who was killed by gunmen along Ore-Sagamu road last week Friday.

The Aare Ona Kakanfo said” I can tell you authoritatively that we are meeting as a group and as stakeholders to map out strategies to complement efforts of the law enforcement agencies.

He said, “I have been notified that the IGP has arranged a special squad to work on that dangerous spot of the southwest due to the letter I wrote to the IGP four weeks ago.”

“We can no longer allow our people to be killed like chickens. We can’t keep quiet while Yorubas are being killed like fouls.

“It is very important that we react to this issue but we will not overreact. We are being cautious so that we won’t be setup. And the law is there that we have to operate within the ambit of the law. That is one of the reasons we are being careful.”

He said his own Aare Ona Kakanfo is a modern one, saying that, “It is not that of the olden days where the Alaafin and some Yoruba Obas with the Oyo Mesi will declare war and you can go to war. We have the structure of security on ground, the entire security apparatus.

“We have to be careful not to go into their own trap. We have to be careful. It is good you see me in circulation to walk with you. We don’t want a situation we walk into their trap because we realize that this ugly incident is being coordinated beyond our own scene. There are some forces behind them.

Adams further said, “how can ordinary Fulani herdsmen be holding AK 47. In our findings, AK 47 rifle goes for about N1 million and with many bullets. So, we are looking beyond ordinary Fulani herdsmen.”

“We realized that there are some forces behind them in three phases. Those who strike in the bush, those who issued statement to back them up and those who are strategists who give instructions to those who strike and to those who issue statements”

“We always react. When we tell our people to prepare, they employ non-chalant attitude to it”

“I have seen this signal, I have the information. Last year I wrote our governors and a summit on security was held three weeks ago, just within three hours we couldn’t conclude on that summit.”

“Now we don’t have option, we have to work with them. They are the chief security officers of their states and anything that happens within their state is an embarrassment to them. Don’t forget that they are the ones collecting all the security votes.

“As the Aare Ona Kankafo, I use my personal fund. We are talking about someone that is ready to sacrifice anything for his own race and not reading political meaning to all that is happening”.
