I suggest the state government should close down the university indefinitely if they can't fund it instead of punishing the students with strikes and all that.

Souls who are not supposed to be on earth always return because the moral values on earth has been eroded.

We are not suppose to share this planet with arm robbers

How on earth will someone vote for PDP who for 16 years loot the nation's treasury.

Sai baba till 2023.

I'm for everyone and I'm for nobody

Of course, they can be arrested if they have violated the law. They are not above the law.

Nigerians are fully aware of PDP antics. Defection here and there is driven by selfish motive, not patriotism

APC has clear manifesto for the masses and people thankfully now see beyond the self seeking desperation of PDP legislooters

The Buhari led government has initiated a lot of laudable project. See the good things about the gvernment not always speaking ill about it

Nigerians should stop relying on hearsay, do your own independent investigation.

Most assertion about the president is based on hearsay

No thanks to the multiplier effect of social media.

News traded on this platform has done harm instead of preferring solution

London’s Bridge Centre Says PDP Behind Farmers/Herdsmen Crisis

By

 Elizabeth Morgan


The world has on several occasions been appalled by the wanton killings in Nigeria from incidents attributed to clashes between herdsmen and farmers. Attacks upon attacks in affected communities have been blamed on “killer” herdsmen, who in such instances prove elusive as not much would be heard about the daring killer squads that carry out such crimes against humanity.
The situation has triggered a cycle of blame game within Nigeria, with the consequence that the persons behind these killings, at least responsible in part, are successfully evading justice. Findings show that these persons are of the People’s Democratic Party (PDP), which has its imprint on the Farmers/Herdsmen Crisis as the then ruling party and more recently as the country’s leading opposition party.
We invite the United Nations Security Council to consider the following as we invite the Council to urgently intervene before the world starts dealing with the problem of a lost generation in Nigeria>

SYSTEMATIC RETENTION OF A FESTERING PROBLEM
Transhumance is a phenomenon that is not peculiar to Nigeria. It has been worsened by climate change, urban sprawl, changing cultures and economic pressure. In the 16 years that PDP ruled Nigeria, it decided to do nothing about the realities of making changes to avert the genuine aspects that can be addressed as Farmers/Herdsmen Crisis like the current government is doing by proposing cattle ranching as a workable solution to the issues caused by nomadic cattle herding. It instead presided over the theft of the country’s resources on a scale that makes it difficult to make certain interventions that will allow livestock keepers and crop growers thrive as constituent parts of the agricultural sector.

POLITICAL SUPPORT FOR KILLER GROUPS
In the desperation to get at the government of the All Progressives Congress (APC) at the centre, PDP chieftains have been to known to actively support killers, who go about massacring populations in communities that did not vote them in the 2015 General Elections. These killings have been classified as part of the casualty from the Farmers/Herders’ crisis. We will name a few instances to support this position:
In Benue state, Akwazar Terwase (alias Gana) was propped up by the PDP governor that presided over the state up to 2015 (Gabriel Suswam) even though he was a known mass murderer. The governor who took over, Mr. Samuel Ortom, even while posing as an APC member, being a closet PDP member at that time continued to provide cover or Gana while publicly castigating him for public show. Gana is responsible for scores of deaths, including many that were initially attributed to herdsmen. Ortom is now formally back in the PDP.
Aminu Yaminu (Tashaku), a known Boko Haram terrorist, was employed by PDP’s Samuel Ortom and paid from the Benue State Government account under the pretext of being the commander of the Livestock Guards. Tashaku has been arraigned for the gruesome murder of 17 worshipers in a heinous crime that was initially attributed to “killer” herdsmen.
In the last week of June 2018, reprisal killings trailed the killing of scores of villagers in Plateau state. The reprisals have now been proven to be the expected outcomes plotted by a former governor of the state and PDP lawmaker in the National Assembly, Senator Jona Jang, who had vowed to make the state ungovernable for the APC led government of Simon Bako Lalong. Jang is known to have also instigated the killings as a way of forcing law enforcement agencies to back down from pursuing corruption cases against him in court.

CREATION, FUNDING AND ARMING OF ETHNIC MILITIAS
Political leaders of the PDP have in the period since the party was voted out of the Federal Government engaged in the formation of militias, which they armed with weapons prohibited under several international protocols. These weapons have been deployed in commission crimes against humanity as they resulted in mass killings.
Taraba State (PDP) governor, Mr. Darius Ishaku, directly and through proxies armed and funded the Mambila Militia that was responsible for the violence that claimed scores of lives in Sardauna Local Government Area of Taraba state in the second half of 2017. The killings were again initially linked to killer herdsmen before details emerged to confirm that the pastoral community was rather under attack.
Members of the Benue State Livestock Guards, upon being arrested by the military, confessed that they were armed by the state governor, Mr. Samuel Ortom, a PDP member who was then pretending to belong to the APC.
On April 5, 2018 33 persons were killed by gunmen who turned out to have been armed by Senator Bukola Saraki, another PDP member that hides behind the logo of the APC. The gunmen confessed that their weapons and operational vehicles came from him. The brazen nature of the attack was initially ascribed to “killer” herdsmen.
Kabiru Seidu aka Osama and Nuhu Salisu aka Small, named Senator Dino Melaye (PDP) as their gun-runner. They had used the weapons supplied by Dino Melaye for robberies and kidnaps that were at some point attributed to herdsmen.

ARMING KILLERS AHEAD OF 2019 POLLS
Information at our disposal reveal that the PDP chieftain have released funds and more weapons for killers that will further attack communities as part of their ploy to campaign that President Muhammadu Buhari has failed in his campaign promise of restoring security to Nigerians. This money is coming from the 100 billion Naira fund that was previously earmarked to sabotage the country and present it as a failure.
PRAYERS
Taking cognisance of the continued desecration of the sanctity of human life, the United Nations Security Council is invited to:
Order a full investigation into the role that politicians, especially the PDP, are playing in the killings attributed to Farmers/Herders’ crisis.
Arising from the findings of the full investigation, takes the steps necessary to deter the kind of disregard for human life as is presently the trend.
CONCLUSION
Time is of essence for whatever intervention the Council has to make since it is important that Nigerians are reassured ahead of the General Elections.

Let there be sanity in Nigeria and outside the shore of Africa

In Nigerian politics, opposition party can mutilate the electoral materials in their favour. I think INEC err on the side of caution. What they did isn't professional at all.

What they should have done is to invite both parties.

Anybody that passively or actively support PDP does not have the interest of Nigerians at heart

No ideology, no vision but gloomy horizon that is peculiar to people of herd and thoughtless mentality!

The political permutation will still favor APC. Politics is extremely dynamic

He's not even scared of getting infected with a dangerous strain of STD's. Who know how many cows have been sexually molested and yet slaughtered for human consumption!

The sub culture idiosyncrasies of a lost soul

Where is he running to? He's chasing shadow instead of finding a lasting solution to the herdsmen crisis in Benue and campaign energetically for his 2nd term re election under the APC platform.

He can still return as a governor if he align himself with president Muhmmadu Buhari

When it's obvious that PDP is loosing, they'll be blaming the ruling party for whatever they can conceive in their imagination

This is a welcome development

I think this persecution has to do with the killings of Nigerians in South Africa. Nigerians may indirectly attack South Africa companies due to the xenophobic behavior of South Africans towards Nigerians.

My opinion anyway.

The killer has a thrown a stone against a glass window and he cannot escape the judgment of the occupant of the glass house. In short, he cannot exonerate himself from the crime and the ensuing judgment.

Crime in whatever guise is bad. Stay away from it.

Defection here and there is only in the interest of the defector, not in the interest of the masses.

Definitely a smart idea

No telecom service offers the best network in Nigeria. They can frustrate you when you expect more from them. I think the best thing you can do is to keep two or more SIM's in case you're experiencing difficulty accessing the net.

The Gbagyi name is wrongly spelt as Shokolo, the correct spelling is Shekwolo.

N power is a laudable initiative of the federal government.

Robbery and various abnormality in the society should be tackled from the root. Here are my suggestions

(1) The destiny of an entire human race lies in the hand of the woman. Hence, women should cultivate a good moral behaviour so that she can impart the ideals in her children

(2)The government should create an enabling environment for everyone to succeed. Crime is often caused by injustice.

(3)The security should be reinforced and equipped with 21st century weaponry. More importantly, the mental health of newly recruit should be assessed to avoid incident of accidental discharge and unprofessional behaviour. Officers that kill citizens or foreigners extra judicially should be jailed for life.
