It's was education that made Yoruba Muslims difference from all these fanatics, if South West christians for don day collect too

Even Yoruba Muslims are also sympathetic to their terror brothers in the North.

Have you seen any Yoruba Muslims condemning terrorism , banditry and genocide happening in North and middle belt ? No!

It is only those in the SE, SS and Christian in the middle belt that can call a spade a spade about the religious killings in Nigeria.

Count SW out of it. The Christian among them are confused. Neither here or there. Their Muslims among them are the worst. They are silently support and also sympathetic to their terror religious brothers in the north.

MightySparrow:
This is pure politics and has nothing to do with our ancestral heritage in Lagos. I am not a politician. I am in favour of Oódua nation, culture, and prosperity.

No to yamirin dynasty in Lagos.

You are in favour of oduaarewaniatan nation.

That's why you have Emir of ilorin instead of oba. That's why you have Fulani king in lagos and will replicateed to other SW states.

blackgold2018:
then why are you people turning completely blind eye in kwara??

You can easily wake up someone that is sleeping but you can't wake up someone that is pretending to sleep.

That's the position of Yorubas on anything concerning Fulani herdsmen killings and terrorism.

That's why tinubu defended Fulani herdsmen by asking " where are the cows ? Is Evans an herdsmen ?

You can as well see their people defending the fulani king in lagos. People with slavery mentality.

mascot87:
Clown, so let us imagine what you said is true. Should we allow another group of delusional people to drag and take Lagos away from us and also call us cowards in the future. Then if what you said happened in Kwara is true then I think lagos state should do more in ensure you people don't replicate what happened in Kwara here in Lagos. So we are not coward but taking bold steps to avoid a repetition.

So why are you crying that we aren't taking any chances in allowing you people take over Lagos, why the cry

Am not imagining anything. It was want it currently happening in kwara. That's the reality. You can continue to live in deniability. That's your problem not mine.

Nobody is dragging and taking away lagos from anybody. You have a " SIEGE MENTALITY". That's is your problem. Why are not dragging osun, ogun, Oyo etc. Is lagos the only state in the SW ?

Lagos was the former FCT for 7 decades. FG investment, Niger Delta oil money and the collective efforts, enterprise and hardworking of every Nigerians made lagos what's she is today.

It takes foolishness for someone to wake up and say that some people will drag and take over Lagos. Where are they dragging and taking Lagos to ?

The real threat is happening in kwara. Before you know what is happening it will expand to the neighbouring SW states. That's the reason your leaders like Afenifere are voicing it out before it becomes to late.

Just like what president Jonathan said. " You can easily wake up someone that is sleeping. But you can't wake up someone that is pretending to sleep".

That's is you people condition In Nigeria right now.

ibechris:
It is historically proven that Yorubas are truly afraid of Fulani people all over Nigeria.

Pure double standard.

Why won't they be afraid of them when the children of Usman Dan fodio conquered them and continue to rule them in ilorin.

They ban Yoruba isse festival in kwara. They are currently trying to wipe out the remaining part of your Yoruba in kwara. That's why kwara state is battling insecurity.

The Terrorist have now currently occupying many Yoruba villages in kwara South. They have killed and displace the indigenous people there.

Is just Cowardice and storkhole syndrome.

Racoon:
Hehehe! This obvious profiling of the Igbos by our brethren from this side of the Niger is really gonna have many ripple effects that will be self consuming on their side.

The results will be devastating to the point that they won't bear it.

Afenifere are already crying about the killings in kwara and kogi.

LAGOS IN PERSPECTIVE (Because I can see some crying and making useless references)

You don't tell a state what it chooses to allow and what it chooses not to allow. Just like you have friends, out of your friends, you have those that you can allow to stay in your house, sleep over or even spend weeks with you. However, you have some that because of there attitude and wicked ways, you will never allow them to know your house not to talk of staying with you in your house in just 1 day. The attitude and behaviour of different people will determine how you relate with them.
Back to this issue, you will never see an hausa or fulani man dragging your land with you and call it no man's land.
You will never see them dragging your political structures with you and want to impose a foreigner ad your governor or state reps.
You will never see them disrespectful to there host. They focus on there business and do there things without noise.
They obey the laws of the land of your host and will never engage in what the state will not approve of.
They are like the friends we would love to have around in our house because they respect us and in return we respect them which is mutual.

But you see this other people, they are the kind of friend you should keep at distance. They are the kind that will come to your house and will never coordinate themselves, jumping from one place to another. They can turn your house upside down, they can even set you up with one of your neighbours. They will disrespect you, do all sort that will even make you feel uncomfortable. They can even dominate you and before you know, people may even start to think they are the owner of the house you are staying.

That is who they are. So YES, cry all you want, wail all you want, Lagos prefer a fulani/hausa friend and would permit them to do some things because there intentions are pure than an igbo friend that would turn things upside down, disrespect you and even want to take your land from you.

And you don't deem it fit to look at yourself and ask if you aren't doing something wrong. But your arrogance and pride will not let you see all that.

They keep making useless senseless comparison

And YES i don't hate igbos and I will never hate them. But they are people you have to set some boundaries with.

Ghanaians say you should go
South Africans don't want you
Lagosians are complaining about you all the time

Enough said

But they drag kwara with you and conquer you, then proceed to install and Emir that is currently ruling you on your land till date.

They have occupied, killed and dislodges many Yoruba villages in kwara South.

Continue to leave in denial and delusion. The same way the conquer kwara is the same way they will replicate it in other SW states.

Cowards!

Krankhead:
They take up title, respect their host, they don't make noise, no trouble, they don't claim to be owner of Lagos like Igbos.

What did you do when they cancel Yoruba cultural ceremony ?

https://saharareporters.com/2023/07/08/why-we-cancelled-yoruba-cultural-ceremony-isese-festival-emir-ilorin

They are currently wiping out indigenous Yoruba communities in kwara South. After that, they will now move to the SW.

Continue to dip your head in the sand.

stuffs2002:
If only you could read.

Fulanis are not Nigerians yet they have been presidents, governors, ministers, senators etc in Nigeria.

They told writer told you that the Sarkin Fulani's dad came to Lagos from northern Nigeria yet you still decided he is still not a Nigerian

Finally, have you ever seen any Fulani declared that Lagos is no man's land?

Did they declare kwara a no mans land before conquering it and then impose an Emir that is currently ruling you on your land ?

When they Ban Your "Isse festival" what did you do ?

A coward die one thousand times.

A coward die one thousand times. That's why they lost ilorin and the entire kwara state.

The immigrants from futa jalon conquered them and impose an Emir that is currently ruling them in ilorin till date.

Next will be osun and Oyo. A coward die one thousand times.

Godfullsam:
You guys complain too much about everything.

Why na.

Just don't allow your arch enemies from SW to start reasoning importation business oh .

Those guys will penetrate the industry with more zeal, innovation and determination and highjack it from you guys o.

Remember how they highjacked the movie industry o .

SW and importation should not be in the same sentence.

Have they finished Agbero work ? Let the face their agbero work while we face our importation business.

The Fulani mercenaries are the terrorists that are killing and displacing indigenous people in NW and NC. They are the same terrorists that are killing people in kwara.

owobokiri:
These minorities are the most confused set of Nigerians..
They will fight with fulani, then they will cry about the fulani.
They will cry of being massacred, they will be the same people to defend their fellow northerner while fighting for Northern solidarity.
They will cry against marginalization, yet they will fight for the groups marginalising.
Imagine how this ones are busy defending nonsense

The worst part are those in the South South.

Brendaniel:
You just spoke my mind, How can the president and almost all the security chiefs be Yoruba people and yet they are crying for help.

Isn't it clear most of them supported Tinubu just for bragging rights and to mock a certain people, I mean these guys don't even call Tinubu out, that's why I'm not taking any Yoruba person shouting state police seriously.

Why? Initially they told us only Tinubu can fight Fulani and that Peter Obi is a weakling and Atiku is Fulani, now Tinubu is there failing to even protect them, they are now putting the blame on state police creation, if state police is created and they see it is failing, they look for another thing to start blaming....

Just for a second imagine if it was the Igbos that was killing people all over Nigeria and killing the Yorubas under a Yoruba president, imagine what they would started doing to the Igbos from these very same people, this is a serious matter that concerns them, see how they all avoided the thread.

They are in a hot soup.

9 Local governments under siege by terrorists.

helinues:
Terrorists in South West can't be possible. That, I am sure of

Continue living in fantasy.

Once kwara is conquered. Next is SW. That's the reason you kinsmen are writing letters to the UN to intervene. They have see what the future holds. But you are still living in denial.

Continue!

Yorubas are more concerned about what is happening in lagos. They don't care about the 5 SW states.

Terrorists from Sahel can take over kwara down to osun, Oyo, ekiti, ogun etc. They don't care!! That's the bitter truth.

They are in Lagos chasing what is not chasing them. Once lagos is Ok. The remaining SW states can go to hell.

Have you see them talks about the killings, genocide and occupation on people in kwara. No! Why, they don't care.

madridguy:
They don't have issues with their own underdeveloped states. Thank you honourable commissioner.
We need someone like you as the next Eko State governor.

What is opinion on Kwara state killings ? Leave Lagos alone!

Everyday, terrorists are killing people in kwara. Even kwara state people has abandon their villages to come and stay in Lagos as refugees. You might be one of them.

abc115:
When it comes to Lagos State, every tom, dick and harry have an opinion. Was it illegal when Gov. @alexottiofr
removed contraventions in Abia State? Was it also illegal when Gov @CCSoludo
also removed contraventions in Anambra?

Here in Lagos, every of our actions is backed by the law and we stand by it all. We remain committed to enforcing the laws without distraction, irrespective of whose ox is gored!

#ThisIsLagos

Lagos Commissioner

The ways you guys get opinions in what is happening in other people states.

By the way. Lagos being the former FCT was built and developed by FG together with hardworking and contribution of Nigerians.

What is your opinion on Kwara killings especially in the Southern parts of kwara that is home of indigenous Yorubas there ? Why are you guys silent ?

LegendHero:
I am deeply surprised. Seems the governor is doing fantastically well.

That rise is commendable.

The governor is not doing anything fantastic. I live in Enugu.

Peter mbah is taxing the hell out of Enugu people. Enugu people are complaining bitterly about the tax. The governor even went ahead to tax market women selling on the street. Is very bad!

nairalanda1:
Idle mind na devil workshop

For many years, Nigerians voted for and insisted on leaders who would share the national cake, not leaders who would use our natural resources to develop goods and services for the world...which means lots of jobs for everyone.

This is the result. More religious and ethnic tension.

We better stop looking at oil, and looking at what we have and how we can use it to make stuff the world needs, then there would be no idle hands for the devil to pick up...eventually.

Tell that to north and SW political leaders .

Since 1970s. They have the ones ruling and destroying Nigeria. Instead of them to fix Nigeria, they are more interested in Niger Delta oil. That's why most of their politicians and businessmen owned oil blocks and oil well in the SS.

esnbrutality:
If Kwara can go down like this.it means OYO State is GONE

Kwara state is already gone. The terrorists has killed, displaced and occupied the ancestral land of the indigenous people there.

The next move by terrorists is to build a strong formidable base in those occupied villages and forest and use it to launch further attacks in neighboring states like Oyo , osun and Ekiti. What is coming for the SW states won't be interesting in next coming months.

They have cowardly Abandon and surrender their people, villages and their ancestral in kwara and then focus on lagos. Then continue to chase what is not chasing them in lagos while terrorists from the sahel has completely overrun their kwara and fast moving straight to the SW.

Their silence on kwara issues says a lot about them Cowardice! South Easterners peacefully doing their business is their problem but marauding terrorists from Sahel are not their problem.

Anywhere, They will pay for such foolishness. Oyo and Osun should brace up. They are the next!

The children of Usman Dan fodio want to achieve there long desire dreams. They will dip the Koran into the Atlantic.

At least six General Purpose Machine Guns (GPMGs) and more than 30,000 rounds of ammunition were seized from a Nigerian Army joint task force by bandits in Obanla, Kwara State, last month, SaharaReporters has learned.

According to security sources, the heavily armed gang that carried out the attack is the same group now terrorising parts of Kogi State, where dozens of residents have been killed in recent days.
The bandits reportedly ambush military units after receiving intelligence about their impending operations against them.

“Last month, six General Purpose Machine Guns (GPMGs) and over 30,000 rounds of ammunition were seized from the Nigerian Army in Obanla, Kwara State,” a senior military officer told SaharaReporters.

“It was seized by bandits from the Nigerian Army's joint task force. They're the ones that have now reached Kogi and are wreaking havoc

They killed 27 people in Kogi yesterday, but it was not reported.”

“Their modus operandi is to get intelligence of impending military response and ambush them,” one security operative familiar with the situation said.

Sources disclosed that while the Nigerian Air Force initially tracked the movement of the armed group, it later declined requests for sustained aerial support during the firefight.

The failure of the NAF to provide aerial support allowed the bandits to overpower the troops and cart away their weapons.

“The operation once again exposed the deep lack of synergy between Nigeria’s security agencies,” a senior military officer told SaharaReporters.

“The Army and the Police could not coordinate effectively, and even when the Air Force was invited to provide crucial aerial support, they simply refused to respond.”

According to sources, in the aftermath of the incident, the Kwara State Government was handed an old video clip of an aerial bombardment to circulate as evidence of a “successful operation.”

The footage was later found to be fake.

“The state governor was then given an old video of an aerial bombardment to circulate; this was later exposed to be fake,” one of the sources said.

“This is why insecurity persists, not because Nigeria lacks firepower, but because those entrusted with securing the nation are locked in rivalry, inefficiency, and institutional arrogance.”

SaharaReporters earlier reported that Governor AbdulRahman AbdulRazaq’s media aide circulated old photographs of NAF airstrikes in Borno State, falsely presenting them as recent military operations in Kwara.

The images were shared after bandit attacks in Oke-Ode and nearby villages in Ifelodun Local Government Area left more than a dozen people dead and displaced several residents.

The otoge people . The people of kwara are in a hot soup.

Unfortunately for them. Their brother in the SW has already denied them and insisted that they are no Yorubas indigenous to kwara.

After kwara is overrun. Next are the SW states that borders kwara.

Hamas, shebi una don here. Accept trump peace plan before 6pm on Sunday or all all hell will let loose.

Is no longer a coastal road anymore. Edo State does not have a sea coast.

kettykin:
It is beginning to look like kwara is the new Benue.

It will be worse than benue.

The terrorist has displaced a lot of people from their ancestral land in kwara South which is the home of Yoruba communities there.

The terrorist also displace the village that houses NYSC permanent orientation camp. The state government has shifted the NYSC camp to ilorin which is the capital that to tell you that the whole villages in kwara are not safe.

They are abandon their people in kwara to their fate. They are busy looking for igbo properties to demolish and destroy lagos while terrorists from the sahel are systematically wiping, cleansing and dislodging them from their ancestral land .

The touts called sego in Lagos that is threatening people should organize his boys to defend their people in kwara. But he won't do that because he is cowards. And most of his people thinks like him.

After conquering kwara. The terrorist will build a formidable strong defense base and use it to launch attack in other SW states.

casualobserver:
The ibo coup alienated the North. They havent forgotten.
Peter Obi and his IPOB crew masked as Obidients has finished the job by alienating the SW who prior to had nothing against the ibos. We will not forget.

you cant become president of Nigeria without the 2 largest voting blocks. Ibo should forget about presidency of Nigeria for the next 40 years in the 1st instance.

Go and save your people that are being killed, slaughtered and their land occupied in kwara

We you also forgot Terrorists herdsmen daily killings of people in kwara ? Will you also forget how Emir of ilorin banned Yoruba isse festival in kwara ?

After kwara. Next is Oyo and osun. Continue dipping your head in the sand.

⚡In Ukraine, they cannot find the bodies of the deceased British mercenaries, and the country's Foreign Ministry refuses to help their families – LBC

The parents of the British men killed in Ukraine say that the UK Foreign Office is not providing them with the necessary support. This concerns both legal issues and connections with the Armed Forces of Ukraine to obtain proof of the soldier's death and to receive payments.

Marlin died in 2022. His remains, like those of many other fallen mercenaries, have still not been found. His mother and father said they receive no help from the Foreign Office.

Mercenaries are not giving the status of POW or either protected anyway under Geneva convention.

Foreign mercenaries killed in Ukraine are buried right there. The ones that surrender to Russia forces are languishing in prison in cold hell Siberia.
