If I go by your logic, we have a tribe selling fake drugs an and drinks in Lagos. Same tribe has a speciality in refurbishing motor parts and selling it as foreign used.

Should we also generalize that the all the people from that tribe are criminals?

Like I said earlier, the west does not have a problem with anyone. Criminals we have a problem with.

Even from within, we have our own criminals, so the idea about castigating one tribe is dead on arrival!

Predictor3:
And yet fulanis are still attacking imo and Enugu.
Kanu has absolutely nothing to do with whatever is going on in the SW. He is not known in the SW. We've been dealing with fulanis since the 1880s in Yoruba land. They are usual suspects and we'll find our way round them like in the past

HacheNoire:
The West is far more educated and enlightened to fall for your propaganda which attached to a criminal currently serving jail term.

The West is against criminals irrespective of their tribe, religion or ethnic group. We have cohabited with peaceful and loving Fulani’s in the West for decades and will be crude of us to attribute crime to them.

Criminals we have a problem with, not Fulani’s!

Nnamdi Kanu Expels Chika Edoziem, 9 Other Senior IPOB Members Over Alleged Betrayal, Sabotage, Power Grab

Imprisoned Indigenous People of Biafra (IPOB) leader Nnamdi Kanu has announced the indefinite expulsion of 10 senior members of the group's dissolved third Directorate of State, headed by Chika Edoziem, accusing them of abandoning him in detention, undermining his legal battles, and attempting to hijack the separatist organisation for personal political gain.

In a statement attributed to Kanu and posted on X on Sunday by his brother Kanunta Kanu, the IPOB leader declared that the affected individuals no longer hold any authority to represent or speak on behalf of the group.

“The authority to appoint, discipline, suspend, remove, dissolve, or expel any officer or administration of IPOB is vested in the office of the Supreme Leader. The expulsions announced herein are made pursuant to that authority and in accordance with the IPOB Code of Conduct,” he said.

Those expelled are Chika Edoziem, Tony Nzurumike, Austin Agbanyim, Chukwudi Oforma, Isaiah Ubah, Colins Chinedu, Chinasa Nworu, Fidelis Ejiogu, Chidinma Nworu, also known as Juliet Edward Filatro, and Keke Uda.

Kanu said the expulsions followed what he termed repeated violations of the movement’s code of conduct.

According to him, the affected members were part of the third Directorate of State administration he appointed while being held at Kuje Prison in March 2017.

He noted that the administration’s original six-month tenure expired in September 2017 but continued to function at his discretion until it was dissolved.

Kanu stated that while the dissolution of the administration was an administrative measure, the latest expulsions were disciplinary actions stemming from the conduct of the individuals before and after the dissolution.

He accused the expelled members of abandoning him and other detained Biafrans without adequate legal, welfare, or medical support during their incarceration.

The IPOB leader further alleged that they obstructed efforts by groups including AVID, Rising Sun, and Ambassadors for Self-Determination to raise funds for his medical treatment when he was allegedly critically ill in the custody of the Department of State Services (DSS).

Kanu also accused the former officials of attacking his lawyers and collaborating with unnamed political actors in the South-East to undermine his court cases.

He claimed that they falsely blamed his brothers for his return to court after the October 13, 2022, judgment of the Court of Appeal and propagated narratives that President Bola Tinubu would only secure his release if he renounced the Biafra agitation.

“Persistent false claim that my brothers returned me to court after the Court of Appeal discharge of 13 October 2022, when in fact it was my then legal team (including Chief Mike Ozekhome and Ifeanyi Ejiofor) that went back to court instead of filing a preliminary objection to the Federal Government’s application for stay,” he said.

Kanu further alleged that the former officials spread stories that two African countries advised them to abandon him in detention and engaged in campaigns aimed at weakening his influence and taking control of the organisation.

He claimed that some of the expelled members altered the IPOB oath of office to demand personal loyalty and removed officers he had appointed, replacing them with individuals loyal to them.

Warning supporters and sympathisers, Kanu declared that any person or group associating with the expelled members would be considered as acting against the interests of IPOB and the Biafra cause.

He directed members and supporters worldwide to support the fourth Directorate of State administration headed by Chris Nwaọgụ, insisting that the movement remained united under his leadership.

Both of them wanted parts of Yorubaland destroyed
Nnamdi Kanu is definitely not our friend

Many Fulani settlers in the southern part of the country are quietly abandoning communities they have lived in for decades over alleged ethnic profiling and rising insecurity, Sunday PUNCH reports.

Findings showed that many Fulani settlers in the South-East and South-West are either fleeing or being forced out of communities they have lived in for years, as host communities accuse them of complicity in terrorism and banditry.

Some of the settlers disclosed that many of them were facing hostility, while their cattle had been stolen, a development that has triggered a gradual migration of herders and cattle breeders to West African countries and other locations perceived as safer.

The development comes amid rising insecurity, including killings and mass abductions, which have fuelled accusations against Fulani communities and herders in some parts of the country.

While many residents in the affected communities continue to express concerns over violent crimes, leaders of the Miyetti Allah Cattle Breeders Association of Nigeria absolved their members of any criminal acts.

They insisted that ethnic profiling had resulted in the killing, ejection and forced relocation of innocent herders.

The South-West Chairman of MACBAN and Sarkin

Fulani of Abeokuta, Alhaji Muhammad Labar, told Sunday PUNCH that fear had spread among Fulani communities across the region, and confirmed that some pastoralists had relocated, along with their cattle, to neighbouring countries and other areas perceived to be safer.

“Some of our members have already left the South-West. They relocated to places where they believe they will be safer and more comfortable. There is fear within the Fulani community because of the way criminality is increasingly being linked to our people,” Labar said.

He added that MACBAN had intensified sensitisation efforts among its members to prevent panic and promote peaceful coexistence with host communities.

“We keep telling our people to remain calm because we know ourselves. We are peace-loving Nigerians, and we have lived in many of these communities for generations. We contribute significantly to the economy through cattle rearing and the livestock business. We have no interest in anything that can disrupt the peace of the South-West,” Labar stated.

The MACBAN leader stressed that the association had consistently condemned criminality and supported security agencies in apprehending anyone involved in kidnapping, banditry or other crimes.

“We have always maintained that anybody found wanting should face the law. We will never allow the image of the Fulani community to be dragged into criminality. We have been part of the South-West for over 200 years, and we want to continue living peacefully with our hosts,” he added.

Sunday PUNCH also gathered that the herders are facing increasing stigmatisation and hostility, with some allegedly killed or forcibly ejected from their communities.

The Deputy Director General of MACBAN, Gidado Siddiki, who supervises South-East and South-South, said the pastoralists were suffering stigmatisation, hostility and expulsion in some eastern states.

He expressed concern over the safety of pastoralists in Enugu State, where he claimed some of them had been killed, describing the state as the most difficult environment for pastoralists in the South-East.

“Between November 2025 and May 2026, at least 11 pastoralists were reportedly killed in various communities across Uzo-Uwani, Nkanu East, Enugu East and Igbo-Etiti Local Government Areas.

“Among the victims listed by the association were Bello Kabiru, Nasiru Mohammed, Manu Shehu, Altine, Manu Modi, Jibir Haruna, Ibrahim Musa, Ahmadu Musa, Abdullahi Bello, Gayya Shuaibu and Dr Idris,” Siddiki said.

In addition to the human loss, he said more than 40 cattle were reportedly killed during attacks across different communities.

According to him, many of the cases had been reported to security agencies but remained unresolved.

Siddiki also said Fulani settlers in Nkaleha community in Ebonyi State had been forcefully ejected, even after the Department of State Services committed them and leaders of the host communities to a Memorandum of Understanding.

“We are suffering stigmatisation, hatred and ejection in some states. Our people have been ejected from Nkaleha community despite the intervention of the DSS. Presently, we don’t have our people in Nkaleha and Nselu at all,” he said.

In Abia State, Siddiki said there was relative peace in most areas but alleged that pastoralists in Abia North Senatorial District continued to face discrimination and restrictions.

While noting improvements in security in Anambra State, he disclosed that more than 50 pastoralists were killed between 2021 and 2024, with hundreds of cattle either rustled or destroyed during attacks.

The association, however, acknowledged that security initiatives introduced by the state government and security agencies had significantly reduced incidents of violence in recent years.

Despite the improvements, Siddiki stated that two pastoralists were murdered by unidentified assailants in Isiagu community, Awka South Local Government Area of Anambra State, in 2026.

Speaking on condition of anonymity, a Fulani farmer living in Ifon Orolu, Osun State, decried the deteriorating level of trust between Fulani people living in the state and host communities.

He also said many Fulani people living in Osun were born and raised in the state and should not suddenly become objects of suspicion.

“Many of us were born and raised in Osun. I was born in Ifon some 41 years ago. I don’t think it is normal for people to start seeing me as a criminal because some people from my tribe are engaging in crime.

“I have been a victim of these violent people. My people are from Zamfara State. I visited the state about two years ago and was abducted by bandits. My family paid N7.5m before I was released.

“Since then, I have not visited the state. These criminals do not represent any tribe. We know ourselves, and we monitor our people living in the state. We have their data, and if any new person comes in, we will know.”

“We will continue to support our host communities and the security agencies in ensuring the security of the state. We have been sharing information with security personnel and remain committed to ending the insecurity,” he said.

Obi na fake.

Peter obi is not sellable in the North, he is igbo centric and he has sympathy for Nnamdi Kanu, fulani man foams

chukwutee:
I’m sure you are joking , obi has how many terms. One?? In agulu or biafra? are you the one that will make obi the president of Nigeria? I know you are joking , but know this fact, it’s easier for el-rufia to become the president of united state of America ,than jokers like obi to become the president of Nigeria ! Know this and stop deluding yourself .

chukwutee:
Nigeria problem is complicated and complex, any one entity can drive an airplane with his mouth and proffer solution but give the same slowpoke opportunity now, he will turn to another failure. Clown like pitobi was governor of a tiny state like anambra but his only achievement was calling “oppositions, Yoruba candidate” and deceiving his people by keeping the state money in a bank he has high shares making making project begging for execution redundant!he can only deceive Chinenye and chukuka, but can’t fool an average Nigerian, as an average Nigerians are naturally intelligent.

Did you understand what AMINDA and I were inferring in our posts about Ndigbo votes or did you have this your post ready somewhere to send as soon as you read anything to do with Ndigbo votes?

Ndigbo are marginalising themselves with their all eggs in one basket approach to politics. The basket the eggs are in isn't even a golden one, it's a dispensible one that no one needs care about.

ADC picking Amaechi has immediately turned SS to a battleground worth scrambling for by the political big boys.

You guys will learn one day.

aswani:
I said something similar not long ago, once people like Prof Utomi, who is President Tinubu's best buddy by the way, can successfully encourage Peter Obí to run, which will lock away SE votes, that land is no longer fertile for any attempt to plough by anyone else.

Consequently, the SE will remain on the outside looking in and their votes will only ensure 3rd place for Peter Obi and nothing else.

A shame really.

USA will not condone Fulani terrorists madness. China would have roasted Fulani people and exported their meat for revenue generation.

Hausa man sends message to Igbo youths regarding MNK in sokoto prison by Tinubu.....

..... Have you been hearing of federal character again? When it comes to their turn, they decide which laws should be applicable to people. I remember them saying, "We federal character, federal character." All of a sudden, there is nothing called federal character anymore in Nigeria. And you are telling me that such a country deserves to survive? It cannot survive. It was built on iniquity, and we must bring it down, and surely the ZOO will fall. God Almighty is my witness, the ZOO will fall. And it will fall in such a way there will be no escape route for anybody. I'm telling you the truth. You cannot bomb terrorists in the forest. How many times have you bombed Boko Haram? Is Boko Haram not the problem? Is Boko Haram not the principal reason and of course terrorists, bandits including ISIS in West Africa are all Fulani.

For your information, they head the security services, the same Fulani are the ones heading every terror group in Nigeria. The same Fulani people.... All of you are just there moving about sheepishly as if you are zombies, as if you are fools. You have no brain in your skull. Every terror group is Fulani. Those charged with defending Nigeria against terrorists are Fulani people. Those spending the money are Fulani.

Dear Nigerians, when will this your stupidity and idiocy leave your brain? Why were you born this way or is it something from the suya you eat? Where did you get your docility, your hypocritical nature, your cowardice, your.... I lack words to describe your average nature. I don't care if you're an archbishop. I don't care if you're a monsignor. I don't give a damn who you are. Once you say you are a Nigerian, God knows you are an animal......
