Suspected herdsmen!!! Now the question is; why would any "herdsmen" just wake up one morning and start killing innocent people indiscriminately even without any provocation? From this report, one can clearly see that the herdsmen and the community have never had any clash, no herdsmen/farmers clash was ever reported. I googled and studied the demography of that nimba uzo community yesterday, and I couldn't even see any place were a single cow can graze. The grasses over their were not the type of grass the average Fulani cattle will eat.

Anyway after I did my little research, I sent my work to the appropriate person. Like I always said, this "invincible herdsmen" story must be unveiled. And the truth will speak at last.

I align myself with you. I believe there is more to this fulani Herdsmen tale bt Northerners are not responding well, they are just defending the Herdsmen without being objective.

I Bet if they substitute all the senate presidents with the presidents since 1960, nigeria would be far better off!

My opinion oh!

Wats d proof 2 ur claim?

Caseless:
they're known for this; they can never be united. They frustrate their own.

Ibos only are one wen against oda tribes.... Once dey are alone, dey state inter state war cum inter clan war...... I once lived amidst ibos so am speaking 4rm xperience

jonathanOz:
Between 1999 and 2007, the president was Yoruba and vice a hausa man. PDP zoned the senate presidency to the Igbos who made almost every SE state participate and feel belonged. Unlike the North Central that allowed David mark on top for 8yrs with little or nothing to show for it. As for the period after 1960, everyone knows Igbos had better knowledge of managing such intellectual like senate presidency. Happy sunday bro!

This ur excuse ur lame. The fact dat all eastern state had produced one senate president each wen d seat was zoned 2 d east only shows how greedy and back biting d average ibo man is and dis is y I as SS man fear any form of alliance with d SE..... talk less of bin a part of biafra.
Its a shame u re evn defending an act of disunity shown by ur kin and condemning d unity put up by d NC... Shame

Y would u wish him suffer b4 death? Hmmmm...
This life

I left service 3yrs ago but still live with my parents cos i cant afford 2 gt my own place thanks 2 men lik IBB who embezzled away my future and dat of oda Nigerians.... D man deserve 2 suffer..
Even God killed evil people in d bible so y shud i wish otherwise 4 evil doers

Na now IBB dey realize say we were all born 2 die... Wen e dey chop away money, dey endorse corruption e no remember say all men must die..... I PRAY U SUFFER 4 AT LEAST ANODA ONE YR (BEDRIDDEN) b4 u die

tooco:
more excuses? its no longer corruption,bad leadership its now change of attitude? smh

Without a change in d nations attitude we wud kip producing same kind of leaders (bad ones)

On ur previous point, lets say we start practicing true Federalism...... wen Oduaghan was delta state governor it wud hav made only one difference; more moni 4 him 2 embezzle because he embezzled d 13% derivation dat came into d state

Religion:
When you believe your ancestors were Adam and Eve, pray that your wives give birth like the daughters of Zion, bind and cast enemies of darkness while your church runs on generator, then hope that at the end, Jesus will come and rapture you..


My brother.. The only future you can give your children is Bible. The Chinese memorize programs and produce Techno, Nigerian kids memorize Bible verse and produce Tekno..

How can you compete on the world stage when your
Monday is Youth meeting
Tuesday Bible Study
Wednesday Choir Practice
Thursday Prayer Meeting
Friday Night vigil
Saturday Choir Practice.
Sunday - 5 services....
And you wonder why our Engineers become Pastors...

U 4got 2 add Islamic feudalism and fanaticism

tooco:
hypocrite running from our major problem which is restructuring the system of gov

True Federalism is needed no doubt bt without a change in attitude, true Federalism wud still not yield its full fruit

enlightenedmind:
we need a neutral power that overwrites all public offices. i rekon hands of the youth. by youth i mean between the ages of 18-30.

Wish youth.... The average Nigerian youth sees leadership as a way out of poverty and wud likely offer no service bt enjoy power

makazona:
We keep saying bad leadership, ironically we voted them in (at least civilian administrations) abi?

Sebali, what is the way forward "in ur opinion"

The way forward :
1. Starts with u and me..... We shud play our part... Be as honest as u can, dont support wrong 4 any reason, ensure u cast ur vote and wen u finally become someone of importance, dese traits wud help u help odas as ur influence wud help turn many around.
2. We need 2 gt more vocal political and socially.... It wud help cure d society of certain vices case study Ese Oruru....
3. Invest in Nigeria..... Dis wud boost d economy wish wud reduce poverty and ignorance and produce more resistive citizens dat can stand up 4 demselves cos dey can afford their basic needs
5. Teach ur children d importance of self sacrifice and integrity..... If we all tutor our children dis way we wud have a beta generation... dats hw sweden did it.
6. Don't support righteousness only with ur lips... Let ur actions speak 4 u... Example if d a yahoo boy buys a vehicle dont celebrate with him neither shud u berate ur child who has not bought a car doing a proper job... Dont go out 2 welc a corrupt politician 4 any reason.

benedictnsi:
Bros you made sense buh i think you should add....

4. Rights infringement

5. Poverty ( low standards of living)

6. Misappropriation of public funds

7. Godfatherism

8. Infant and maternal mortality.

I beliv d 3 i mentioned summarizes all except right infringement.
Lemme explain..... Unemployment leads to poverty wish inturn leads to slavery of d mind, and willingness to do anything 4 moni(including political thugery)..... Unemployment wish is d main cause of poverty prevents d poor from getting proper education and exposure thus keeping his/her foolish and a ready made tool 4 d elites(political class)............. Morale Collapse; d average Nigeria does not see cheating, bribing, embezzlement as something dat is wrong but he/she sees it as a smart tin to do and wud malign anyone who tries 2 be just............ On d oda hand godfatherism is only possible because 1. d unemployed poor man needs scrubs from d table of d godfather, 2. d morale drained mind wud be loyal to anybody just 4 his/her selfish interest 3. Tribalism /religious fanatism leads 2 blind followership(Godfatherism) and finally maternal and infact motality is just a symptom and not part of d problem

"He said the ministry would begin formlisation of illegal miners into a structure to enable them to earn their livelihood in a safe environment and according to the world standard .

“We want them to form a cooperative to enable us to give them a structure that the ministry can work with and anybody that refuses to be part of the structure will face the law.

“We are not going to allow illegal mining to continue; we will bring it to an end; we are not depriving them, but we want to meet up with the Mining Act of 2007,” he said.

He promised that the Federal Government would devise means of assisting them with necessary equipment and financial support among others.
"


Why can't this be done in the Niger Delta too. Why are the illegal refneries burnt/destroyed, even in a situation the nation can not even refine petroleum?

The North has been mining natural resourses illegally for decades. When same is done in the Niger Delta, it becomes a National Crime and must be dealt with.

Imagine the jobs this can create and the multiplier effects this can bring if such support stated by the Minister to be given illegal miners in the North is also given the illegal refinaries in the South South.
If this helps cut down on importation of petroleum products by up to 50%, Imagine the exchange rate problem this would have helped solve.
Talkng about having lastng Peace in the Niger Delta, and Nigeria at large, will this approach not have a significant effect in achieving that and also make Niger Deltans feel that sense of belonging?
The benefits continues.

True Talk.
Bt our politicians down south seem not 2 care..... None of dem is pushing 4 d legalization of dese illegal refineries... Dese refineries should be legalized

MyPWisINCORRECT:
Why hasn't PMB called these Herdsmen to order?

Probably tribalism..... Cos he is just silent on dis fulani mata

cktheluckyman:
Save your Energy APC twitter warriors,nothing you tweet will make Fayose to lose his seat,the tribunals are over already.Fayose won thew ekiti 2014 elections and replicated it in the 2015 elections.The statute of limitations for thge ekiti elections is over.Fayose would be Governor till 2018 and there is nothing you can do about it.

Even if d he rules till 2018.....let d truth be revealed. Revelations lik dis are necessary 2 clean up d system

Fleshly:
Garbage.

The man is an attention seeker!

Did he say anything new? Aren't elections rigged in Nigeria? Did APC not try to rig Bayelsa state election? Is Buhari's election perfect? This govt is filled with propaganda,

Prolly, they want to deflect peoples attention from the gargantuan loan they are seeking from IMF, I beg Nigerians not to allow this wuruwuru gov deceive them.

It has been two years since the Ekiti state election, what does he want us to do now? He testified in court that the election was perfect, so what's this nonsense all about? Infact this idi.ot should be arrested for upsetting public peace.

Shameless attention seeker!

Ibosss. U ve finally let ur hatred 4 oda Nigerians cloud ur reasoning. 1. D govt already said dey wud borrow so dats no news 2. because Apc tried 2 rig bayelsa we shud clap 4 fayose 4 rigging ekiti.

unamadso:
Every student of Politics knows that to move a motion requires pressure group. Nothing stops Nigeria from calling a referendum tomorrow. SS/SE dont have a majority in the legislative and hence that route is pointless. The legislative is not necessary for break away regions. International law makes provision in those circumstances.

One question 4 u, hw many ss pple have u seen publicly declare support 4 biafra.
Mak una leave us, if we want out of Nigeria it wud be 2 form Niger Delta Republic and not Biafra....

Thieves....... We need 2 change from bicameral 2 unicameral assembly, at least d looters go reduce

janellemonae:
And wasnt this largely d system we had in the 60's. The british left us a federal system. Each region had their admin units, their police, and their revenue. It could have bn improved upon. Not further unified. Who scrapped it? Maybe when u figure out dt answer u'll realize dt these set of pple are always after their own selfish interest & nothing else.

Blame ur brodas who carried outa tribalized coup dat gav d military d chance 2 change d system

The ban is long overdue

Lol, thanks... Don't worry, give the money to some1 cool in ur Area.. Oluwa Ble$$ ya..

lol

DBriteLitehouse:
I read between the lines in your comment that SS minorities will be treated as second class citizens in the so-called Biafra Republic.

Am Edo who has lived amongst ibos. my broda it wasn't a pleasant xperience. Shud SS join biafra and it succeeds
Ibos wud first of all mak igbo an official language, forcing all minorities 2 learn ibo...... Next dey wud cancel state of origin and flock down d minority states to dominate dem.
I rada remain in naija with 3 major tribe dan be with d self centred ibo man

Mcowubaba:
U failed to address the issue...
Can u show me links or videos clips that there was a movement or protest about Biafra during GEJ's tenure
Leave Buhari out of this matter, u can't be insulting tribes, people nd the country tru a pirate Radio station nd creating anarchy nd destabilisation in the Polity. Nd u expect the commander in chief to be smiling...though I don't support Nnamdi kanu being held despite court orders...
U also failed to address Question 3 nd Question 1....
What about all this our corrupt Igbo leaders who have been incharge of our welfare since atleast 1999...
What did T.A orji, ohakim, martin Elechi, Sam Egwu, etc do to better the lives of the Igbo nation...
Oga, charity begins at home..before u start blaming Yorubas', Hausas', Niger Delta, Buhari...what have ur local government chairman, senator, house member done for ur locality ..my own has done NOTHING!!! All of them...THEIVES...
Yoruba nd Hausa is not the cause of Igbo's problem...
Rochas run for president in PDP primaries with Umaru musa ya' radua in 2007..why didn't igbo people in the party vote for him ??
Buhari has ran with Igbo Deputies, Igbos didn't vote them !!
Ojukwu himself ran for election nd lost in almost all Igbo states...
When IPOB stand up to their resident leaders, then we will take u guys serious...u guys can start by compelling T.A orji to return his loot nd holding our Governor accountable...let's start from there before we start talking about Tinubu, Atiku nd Buhari...

Bros send me ur acct No. U deserve some transfer 4 dis post.
Ibos shud look inwards and stop passing d blame 2 others. Dey cry marginalisation all d tym as if dem no hold senate presidency for 8yrs etc

Mcowubaba:
Now about Biafra, why I don't fully support Biafra is this-
1) The current method which is being used to agitate for it (Radio biafra nd Nnamdi Kanu).
2) Why did the agitation increase immediately Buhari won the Presidency..(It makes the Biafra struggle look politically motivated)
3) Is Biafra truly the solution ?, Igbos have had leaders in good positions in the Country, I didn't see how that benefited the tribe, we have Governors, senators, house members, commissioners, Local govt Chairmen who are meant to develop the state, but they don't do that, the emblezze the allocations...what is the assurance nd guarantee that it wouldn't still happen..
I expect IPOBs to address this issues properly before the should start talking about Biafra..

One carton of hero 4 u.

TruthisOut:
Nigerians stop hating Igbo people.... This hatred is too much even people who claim they are christians and are educated can't even control themselves. Igbo have decided to let Nigeria be and seek Biafra, Haters put soldiers on the road to kill them all!!! Nigerians stop hating or let them go.

We love 2 let dem go if only there map has only five SE states

Bt no u pple added d whole of SS, parts of benue and kogi.
Tak only ur states and leave

Lionofdjungle:
It depends on you: if you are ready to marry someone below your social status, I'll advise you NOT to buy the car now so that those men can have access to you. In that case, it means you want to stoop to conquer like the title of a play. However, if you're equally looking for a high class fellow, then go ahead and buy the car. The choice is yours. Good luck!

U ve talk it all

babylawyr:
Truth be told and I'm speaking from experience now, driving in a car will limit the number of guys that will have access to you.

However, it will improve the quality of guys that approach you.

So its quality over quantity. You choose.

Wats ur definition of quality? because a guy can approach a lady with a car.... d guy must have quality. I beg 2 differ. Unless quality here means guys richer than u re.
