I think it's wrong to generalize the north as a single monolithic entity, we have a vast majority of people in the north central who don't buy into the islamic extremist idea and are mostly christians

Helinuse:
Here we go.
But really, if only we knew how much support these terrorists have from the people in the north, it would make us shiver.
An average person in the north supports it.
You may choose to deny it, but it is true.


The only challenge they have is that it affects them too.
But, they don't care.

The solution is not rocket science, simply ban open grazing in the country and force the herders to embrace ranching that way anyone found in the bush is considered a criminal and dealt with , whatever other solution the government is considering will only be a cosmetic surgery to the real issues.

So what is the motive of the Islamic terrorist killing non Muslims in the north mostly christians, world over islamic terrorist groups have just a motive which is to establish an Islamic caliphate and it's same for those deadliest amongst them operating right now in Nigeria and they will stop at nothing even if it means there own life in making sure they achieve there aim There is a genocide going on in the northern Nigeria against indigenous christian population..

HacheNoire:
Quit that narrative! It will won’t sell!

We all know terrorism in Nigeria has not been about religion, tribe or ethnic group.

Muslims, Christians, Atheists and traditionalists have had a fear share of the menace!

How did you or your masters arrive at the conclusion that we have a “CHRISTIAN” genocide in Nigeria?

From someone that told you Caucasians are been massacred in South Africa?

You antics can never work! We have crime and terrorism in Nigeria and it is not targeted!

AntiChristian:
This Jos crises is really deep o!

I think a lot of those northern states are too big to police!

Or better still the national assembly should fast track state and LG policing ASAP! Even LCDA policing should be encouraged!

If Jos had their own police force and each LG in Jos also has theirs even if small, i think all these will be stopped or drastically reduced.

LG police should know what is really happening around them!

This is just one of the reasons why the northern power bloc is hesitant about the creation of state police , they want to keep using the federal security architecture to suppress minorities , imagine the governor been helpless and lack the effective authority to deploy men to hot spots to qwell the situation, it's such a painful experience, the moment states police is in place crisis of this nature in states like Platuea and Benue will die a natural death.

Why was the 48 hours curfew lifted without adequate and appropriate security agents stationed at perceived flash points and high risk areas, I think that's a failure on the part of the state security architecture it shows weakness and lack of proper proactive measures to fustal this atrocities.

JAMO84:
The report carefully selected Benue Plateau Taraba and Kaduna. No mention of Zamfara Niger Sokoto Borno Yobe......

The organization have taken money from the usual suspects to continue pushing rubbish.

Even their chief propagandist in white house knows the truth. He strikes the terrorists in Sokoto, not the so called Christian genocide areas.


Everyone is suffering insecurity in this country, we will not sit down and allow anyone to trivialise it or use it to run agenda against our beloved Islam.

The killers are Muslims and the aim is to take over ancestral land of the christians within the northern part of the country , even the zanfara you mentioned the areas affected are those with large population of traditional religion Hausa adherers and minority christians please do your findings , there is no debunking the fact that christians are the sole target of Muslim terrorist.

The plane did an emergency landing on its own and then arrested on ground it was not the Burkina Faso Air force that forced it to land , it landed on its own due to emergency but when it did the authorities discover it was never cleared to fly over it's air space and arrested the crew.

SwayG:
200k for a passport that doesn't have any value out there.

If you see the way they treated me when I got to ordinary South Africa, they searched all Nigerians like we were Thieves and detained us for hours asking us various questions.

Na only verification I dey use the passport do now

That wasn't because of your passport but because of the criminality of your fellow countrymen and woman that have go ahead of you to constitute nuisance in that country, nobody likes accommodating criminals even if you find yourself in their shoes you will do same if not even worse

maxiuc:
Compare us to Angola and oil producing countries

All this Apcshit comparison

And what is the population of Angola?

Redoil:
if if i suggest for the pourpose of efficiency these states Jigawa, Taraba and Sokoto should be merge to form one state

There are sovereign countries in this world that are poorer than this states, states do not exist for the sake of revenue generation alone what about political and social cultural preservation, sincrerly there is no state in Nigeria that is poor in the real sense of it, those state governments are only intellectually lazy to figure out how to generate wealth.

What we have in the southwest is not lack of teachers but lack of qualified teachers teaching basic education, where you have a mechanical engineering graduate for instance teaching mathematics in junior secondary school ordinarily for anyone that is okay as the engineer should have more knowledge of basic mathematic to teach the students , but in the real sense an engineer is not a trained math's teacher.

indeed. let us see how he is doing it.

Lagos-Calabar Highway Costs 7 times more per km than Pan-African Cairo-Cape town route.

1. Nigeria’s Lagos-Calabar Coastal Highway, a 700 km highway.

Budget: $11–13 billion

2. Cairo-Cape Town Highway, a 10,228 km Cairo-Cape Town Highway

Budget: $1.65 billion

A simple comparison of the two terrain as a lay man without the input of an engineer or a QS will make you understand why the difference between the cost of the two should be ten times more, how do you compare building a desert road to constructing one along the see shore, sand filling the coast line alone will cost 10X more than the entire length of the desert road.

A simple comparison of the terrain of both project as a lay man without the professional input of an engineer and quantity surveyor will let you know that the cost will be 10 times over, you should know as a lay man that the cost of sand filling alone is enough to make up the difference, how can you compare cost of building a desert road to a road by the rive bank

Factcheck0001:
For u to make this kind of statement, I want to believe u haven't seen the video because it's impossible for u to have seen the video and still come up with this.

The lady was reported to have assaulted a fellow passenger who she dragged her wig and gave multiple slaps, as if that wasn't enough she was also caught on tape resisting pleas when crew members tried to reign on her to calm down.

She was unruly and uncouth and was going physical so it's normal to block her till security officers come around.

Her top wasn't ripped but it was a crop top which barely covers her body and in this case where she was carried it's normal for the half cloth to give way.

Who b this guy self?

Call a counselor for a raging n unruly person who isn't willing to listen to anyone?

Over 10 people are trying to calm her down n u are talking of one counselor, I guess the counselor will put JuJu for mouth?

Or u think counseling is like magic that will work instantly?

We have so thrown morals away all in the name of trying to form woke that we don't see any big deal about a girl slapping someone old enough to be her mother but we just want to sound woke n foreign so we ignore that assault and talk about other things.


The question I will ask u is that since u refused talking about the way the lady slapped d air hostess, is it right?

If the air hostess were to be your mother, will u say this?

Its not true that she dragged a fellow passenger, we all saw the video clips that the plane was empty , and she was prevented from disembarking and no passenger was waiting in the plane, even if se had an altercation with a fellow passenger the crew member cannot stop her from coming out of the plane but only alert the airport security to be on standby when the land, how come no such thin happened because every other passenger have left but they block her from coming out that means they waited for everyone else to come out of the plane before carrying out there mischief on the innocent girl, the airline crew members especially the airhostess involved are unprofessional and not qualified the acted like touts and quacks. The senate have waded into the matter and when the inboard cctv camera is released everyone will know exactly what transpired inside the plane but for me its clear the lady was restrained from disembarking arresting her temporarily without warrant inside the plane upon landing which is a breach of her rights.

This is a blatant lie from Ibom Air, as at the time the video was made the lady was the only passenger left in the aircraft, Ibom Air should stop joking with our sensibilities, one of your staff obviously made that video and shared same just to embarrass the lady, was it a passenger that also tore her dress too? You have poor customer relationship and your cabin crew are not properly trained to handle crisis and emergency situations go back to the drawing board and do the needful to prevent a further occurrence of such a shameful display of an unprofessional conduct.

Agugbadin:
This is shameful after publicly assaulting and humalating a woman on her duty post.Some of this trash happening in Nigeria cannot happen outside this country. Ms Emmason cannot assault a woman luke that outside Nigeria.

Ask yourself first why she was prevented from disembarking from the plane after landing in Lagos didn't you see that she was the only one inside the plane? the female hostess felt ridiculed by her comment when she said her phone was on flight mode when she was asked to off her phone before takeoff we didn't hear she fought with her at that point because if she did they would had dropped her off the plane in Uyo but she was allowed to fly and prevented her from coming out the plane when they got to Lagos simply because they saw her like a no body and wanted to deal with her by preventing her from disembarking with other passengers after calling the airline security to come and take her away and that was the part we all saw why didn't they call the police to handle the matter have you heard anywhere in the word a passenger was arrested for refusing to switch off phone during flight?

What played out is a common scenario about how people in authority in Nigeria use their powers to oppress others, the lady was asked to off her phone but said its already on flight mode and the crew felt slighted by her confidence and probably her manner of response and planned a payback by dealing with her on arrival, there are claims by passengers on the same flight that the lady was prevented from disembarking besides from the video it seen clearly she was the only one left in the aircraft as everyone else have disembark and that was when she started reacting, if they have already landed safely without any hitch why intimidate her further a simple word of caution would have been enough why detain her in the aircraft , the cabin crew called the airline security instead of police because they wanted to deal with the lady and settle personal scores forget whatever crap the airline is dishing out that lady is innocent, it's just typical Nigerians in power using authority to oppress the less privilege.

That the passenger acted unruly is not an excuse for Ibom Air to act unprofessionally by temporarily arresting the passenger in the cabin and preventing her to disembark so she could be dealt with by the airline on ground security operatives are there no police men in the airport? the excuse is lame, and the airline must be held accountable for dehumanizing this Nigerian citizen, those supporting Ibom Air obviously know nothing about right violation, when similar incidences happen against blacks in America, we all cry racism what a double standard. This was a simple act of civil disobedience that should have been handled more maturely.

AFONJAPIG:
And somebody on his right sense will tell me to pity Benue people, pity southern kaduna people and the rest ... The same 1 Nigeria their forefathers commited actoricities and war crime to keep today has failed them.. fulani has done worst to them than what they did to Igbos during Biafra war...I will never forget rather will I ever forgive them

So Benue and southern Kaduna are the only people that made up Nigeria a country with over 200 tribes ? conveniently too in the near future the children of Boko haram fighters will come online and claim only Igbo Christain soldiers in the Army that killed them during the Boko haram war and not Nigerian Soldiers, maybe you don't know the country have been in a war against Boko haram, stop peddling falsehood.

Adaumunocha:
Voting Obi had nothing to do with Tribe but the Use of Common sense and their Brains. He was the Best option and that's why d criminals are fighting for him not to run in 2027

If only he used that best option in Anambra when he was governor maybe some of us would have considered him, someone that couldn't turn around a state in 8 years want to fix Nigerian in 4 years, I bet you Obi will find it difficult to pass a single budget through the National assembly in 4 years. Beside the complaint about the road is all in bad faith we all want Nigeria to develop but the moment we see progress we get envious of both the country and those in charge simply because we don't like who they are, and we turn around and run to countries that its citizens paid dearly through free labor and low wages to build.

We are so sentimental in Nigeria that in every situation we pass the bulk without lifting a finger, the university first and foremost have a VC appointment by the President as the chief security officer of the school what is his primary assignment if not for the protection of lives and property of the institution, secondly the school is situated within the boundaries of a state, what is the state government doing to safe guard the school and lastly and not the least we have the host community, we know how politicians lobby to get institutions hosted in their communities how come they do so just to score political goals and not for the interest of the development of education otherwise the host community should by all means protect the life of the university students, how do we blame the President on every issue allowing those saddled with the direct responsibility to hide under the umbrella and walk free from the blame and result of their inaction.

Where are those supporting APC government ?

This isn't about political party, APC isn't the only party in government houses in Nigerian, they all act the same way besides what's the difference between the political parties in Nigerian apart from just a handful, virtually all the top politicians don't have any ideology they are practically the same and all we have in Nigeria is one party because the moment one set is out of government they all move to opposition begin to lie to Nigerians only to take back power and the others move from government back to opposition vice versa and the cycle continues they are all the same set of individuals moving from house of reps to senate to governor back to senate to minister to Ambassador the list goes on and on.

Asking for a police report before you attend to a security personal? I think the NSCDC management should take this up and file cases against the hospitals involved, when will all this nonsense stop for crying out loud hospitals are treatment centers for the prevention of death and no killing venues, if the government don't do something about this now it will continue to lead to the loss of innocent lives, trauma centers in hospitals can't be asking for police report when its this so glaring, are they suspecting she is a member of a gang of rubbers, kidnapers or bandits, please those hospitals must be made to answer questions.

You fools like talking rubbish. What is the difference between Abuja and FCT?

If there's a surge in population in Mararaba, or even as far as Suleja, it is all because people are drawn to the capital city of Nigeria. If they can't afford to reside in the main city, they will reside in the suburbs and surrounding areas. Whatever economic and social benefits/consequences accrue to the FCT, trickles down to every corner of the greater Abuja and even neighboring states like Nasarawa and Niger State.

Same applied to Lagos!

So this disingenuous and vexatious attempt to differentiate Lagos the capital of Nigeria and Lagos the non-capital of Nigeria is quite stupid.

You ended up justifying what they are saying, if most of the satellite town of Maraba and Sulieja grow in future to merge with Asokoro and Kubwa you can't claim they are FCT or Abuja those are still Nasarawa and Niger state territories. There is a part of Lagos that hosted the Federal government serving as FCT and there was Lagos state all compressed within the same area. No matter how close Maraba is to Abuja it's still not FCT. Even the indigenes of FCT will one day begin to draw the line between their boundaries and what there forebearers gave to the FGN the moment population begin to grow, anyone with property outside the core city center is at risk.
