AN END MUST BE PUT TO THIS FULANI ARROGANCE NOW!

I'm terribly angry this morning. Extremely angry.

The Miyetti Allah Association visited the Chief of Defence Staff yesterday and as I listened to a sound bite from their leader, one Senator Jegeri Alkali, I felt my blood growing hot. My face reddened and I couldn't believe my ears!

These bloody murderers didn't even bother to deny the murders they committed! They had the effrontery to look Nigeria's Chief of Defence Staff and justify all the violence the Fulani herdsmen have carried out.

My goodness!!!

So one can kill Nigerians, pay a visit to the highest serving member of Nigeria's armed forces, look him in the eye and admit to those killings albeit giving excuses! What a failed state!

I think this lays to rest all the stupid denials that have been put up by their defenders on social media. Some of you are inherently evil and should hide your faces in shame...and of course, you know that's why I don't respect you. That's why I give free rein to foul language when you start defending open evil. You're utterly shameless, I swear!

Now, let's look at their excuses for murder.
1) Desertification: If nature has chased you away from your traditional abode, what gives you the right to kill off other people and take their land? Do you think the owners of those lands have no nature challenges they're dealing with without killing your own people?

2) Cattle rustling as justification for carrying arms: Why are Nigerians who have suffered loss from armed robbery not also carrying arms? Why are Nigerians who have lost relatives to armed gangs not also carrying arms and killing everybody in sight?

3) Population explosion has wiped out old grazing areas: If population has increased, whose land do you now wish to take when you drift Southwards? And what gives you the right to kill off local populations to take their lands?
So seeking grazing lands has now become a valid excuse for genocide? Ha! Ha! Ha!

4) The Fulani value their cattle because it is represents all their wealth: Who told you the lands the Fulani are taking do not represent all the wealth of the local peoples? So, by your books, the life of a human being is equated to the life of a cow? Ha! Then we ought not to be in the same country, period!

5) Nigerians love meat and the 20m heads of cattle provide that meat: I've never been more insulted in my life as a Nigerian. Whaaat! Ah, now I see reason to join the #boycottbeef campaign. What an egregious insult! It clearly suggests that eating beef today is akin to eating human blood.

Listening to that Sen. Alkali, I heard a most grating arrogance, a most aggravating sense of entitlement and an extremely annoying tone of "what-can-Nigerians-do-to-us". 
So this is it, eh? So this is the open declaration of war that some of us have suspected all this while, huh?

I think it is clear to even the worst cynic that Nigeria is sailing in boiling waters and headed for a port of perdition. I'm sure ethnic groups are already putting on their life-jackets (read bulletproofs). Enough said.

186You, Charles Ogbu, Temi Dayo and 183 others

The violence their militias visit on innocent persons are getting everyone worried.

    When we dey talk this thing dey shout on top our voices, una think say we just dey talk because we get access to internet. 

    These Fulani vampires looked our no1 police officer -Solomon Arase in the face and told him face to face.....kolokolo...no be for film oooo....that they killed Agatu villagers to avenge their over 1000 cows killed by the Agatu people. They told him this in a so called reconciliatory meeting the I.G P organized between them and the Agatu people after they killed over 500 villagers there.

    Did the I.G arrest any of them???

    Imagine a govt organizing a reconciliatory meeting between a gang of blood sucking terrorists and the family of their victims??? Imagine that nonsense!!!

    When I say that the impunity with which these Fulani beasts operate is state-sponsored, politically correct folks call me bigot.

    E don set nah!

      The only thing that is embolden them now is that they feel that their brother is in power and thus are assured of state-cover.

Do you blame the lunatics when they kill more??? #SMH

    Their actions on u is not planned today or under the present adminitration, it's way back.

    Remember what their forefather Usman Dan Fodio told them in his speech back in the days. 

    My problem here is that nigeria version of christianity is not like that of Isrealites. 

    We always wait to be killed before we rant endlessly over and over again. 
    We claimed we are even holier than the pope himself yet wait for God or call his name on everything that we suppose to solve with comon bare hands as if we are the only one created by him.
    ...................southerners, when are you going to speak with one voice, unify yourselves and fight for one purpose instead of waiting for someone to anihiliate you and family before acting?

    Is it until u all get killed through modern genocide?

The worse is that, the bulk of our own people are still deep in their slumber of an utopian One-Nigeria outside the practice of Justice, Equity and fairness to all. For those of us who had forewarned against all these, we have done our civic duties; the rest is for posterity.

I shall say it again- great evil move in the shadows now and until we form a formidable force united against them, we will be overwhelmed. But i see these fulanis being vaquished

    Kent Olayemi Olaleye I had long lost fate in the government of Nigeria since the 3rd year of the Obasanjo regime. It is unfortunate that the enlightened ones amongst Nigerians sat back with the mindset that politics is a dirty game and allowed all these riff-raffs take over our political environment and inadvertently take over the country. The only solution to all the ills that assail us is for everyone to get deeply involved in politics in their wards all across the nation. The earlier we make this move and then take over the political platforms from all the parties, thereby putting a permanent stop to the fraud called imposition of candidates by god-fathers, and effect a gradual replacement of ALL politicians from councillor-ship level in the wards up to the senate, the better for this country. We have the numerical strength to achieve this and if we want to totally free in this country, then this is a must do for all of us! Let's take back Nigeria from these senseless leaders please!! Get ready for 2019!!!

      Kent Olayemi Olaleye Joseph Eleke, the first sense we must get into our heads is that nothing is impossible. If you think something is not possible, you have already lost before even starting. This set of Nigerians are not needed in the Nigeria of today. Any Nigeria that thinks Nigeria is irredeemable should please leave Nigeria for us and move to any country of their choice. We don't need people who will drag us back in the battle to save Nigeria with their type of negative mindset. Things are VERY BAD. But to think that this country can't be saved is an attitude that bothers on sabotage!

Spare me the hypocrisy of loving your own people and thinking ahead of others when worse things have been said and done to your kind, by your kind yet you kept mute. Forming one's own country or breaking away from the existing one is very simple in modern times, do the needful and stop harassing our intelligence with ancient songs of victimisation. A Senator was reported to have said stuff you don't like all hell was let loose on SM, you want to fight, go kidnap the Senator or any Fulani leader of repute to compensate for the damages caused by his brethren. Go get referendum, time is ripe, reorganise your polity and rule over your clans. Some Senator talks, not all is reported, you picked some issues and begin to rant, what for? Even those who have lost thousands in an avoidable war supervised by Ihejirika under Jona's command ain't insulting anybody but doing all that's necessary to restore peace and stability. You've everything at your disposal right? Use them please, so we can have peace or war, not threats.

    • Josiah N. Izuchukwu
      Josiah N. Izuchukwu @Lola, just thinking on your post in defence of buhari. The first question I asked myself is "who appointed these security chiefs? What is the role of a President in a country where hundreds of lives were lost? Poor attention and non challant attitude of the President in this situation portrays ineptitude and poor leadership. Can you still defend him when these barbaric animals attack your village and kill your loved ones? Pls try to be rational and remove ethnic hatred. We're one entity.
    • Lola Adekanye
      Lola Adekanye Josiah N. Izuchukwu I take strong exception to being accused of ethnic hatred and for the record my post was not meant to defend Buhari but to out the spot light on the real problem we face which is weak institutions. Presidents have come and gone before Buhari yet law enforcement and defense institutions have become less competent and unable to serve the people - more on this point later if you care. 

      Before you accuse me of ethnic hatred and lack of objectivity maybe if you knew better you may think different - FYI the recent attack hit very close to home - Enugu State; I am from Enugu state and have family scattered around Enugu and Nsukka area who could have been victims. Yet I maintain my position about a long term solution to ethnic violence and general insecurity and crime in Nigeria. When the north was being ravaged I hope you were also as vocal as I was ?

    • Chibuzo Amaefule
      Chibuzo Amaefule Does he have to be vocal when the north was ravaged? Everyone has a right to pick their battles and defend their kin; even GMB cannot legislate or decree that.

      Unlike him, I will accuse you of politicizing the issue. Buhari, that you are defending mad      e threats and gave orders to the security forces when boko haram and Niger Delta militants were involved and you are now trying to place the blame on a law enforcement officer.

      His body language was clear; he was not going to move against them except he was forced. The security officers did not hear a wimp or condemnation from the presidency and they decided their choice was to play the ostrich.

      Please stop this nonsense of defending evil and don't even pretend you can argue against the truth. You will lose.
    • Lola Adekanye
      Lola Adekanye Funny you think I support or defend Buhari and ignore the real problem - why don't we hold the police commissioner who knew about the impending attacks in Enugu state and did nothing accountable? He was transferred not sacked not indicted not accused of conspiracy. 

      I have said countless times Buhari is not the best president we need in Nigeria but we have a rotten public service so it really doesn't matter who the president is the system is rotten - testament to that is the budget padding episode. I want to see the IGP respond with more aggressive posture because that is primarily his job. No matter how evil Buhari is as you suppose he won't be able to reprimand an IGP who take his job seriously to further an ethnically bias agenda of he has one. 

      And if my brother Josiah wasn't vocal when the north burned under GEJ who responded slowly even to the kidnapping of the girls until the international community was too loud, he has not basis to require objectivity from me or accuse me of ethnic hatred. 

      Or is it not the truth that GEJ like Buhari was also quiet for more than a month when Baga burnt? Did the children not deserve to have a voice like my people in the east north central too? Yet we had public servants charged to uphold the law and peace chilling in air conditioned offices in Abuja waiting for orders.

    Abdulsalam Abubakar I just wish this Biafra nightmare will actually come to pass.. I'm sick and tired of this unholy matrimony where the Igbos look at every one else with disdain despite the immense benefit they derive from their host communities.. I wonder why my idiotic Fulani brothers would leave the vast grassland of the North for the swampy forests in the South..

      Ikechukwu Obi That's not the issue. In any case, you can't plant arrogance (like the Senator's sentiments) and expect slavish obedience, do you?

      Or you expect to lord over people, kill them at will and expect no challenge?

    • Abdulsalam Abubakar
      Abdulsalam Abubakar Do you have solid evidence to back the allegation? I thought the matter is still being investigated? What about the Igbo Policeman that was alleged to have led the attack on the Igbo community?
      Why are you in a haste to vilify the whole Fulani race over the action of unknown persons?
      2
    • Ikechukwu Obi
      Ikechukwu Obi Abdulsalam: These guys have said "we did it" and you're still asking for evidence! 
      In Agatu, they owned up; in Nimbo, they owned up. Why are you still seeking evidence? I wish you listened to that Sen. Alkali! I just wish!

      And it seems you're behind the news, my old friend. There's no such Igbo Police officer! They simply created a non-existent policeman and gave him a very Igboish name 'Corporal Chukwu' just to slant the narrative. Pls don't believe me, do your own checking and confirm this. 

      And what do you make of the removal of that lying CP?

      Am I in a hurry to villify the whole Fulani race? Hell no! First, how can someone who reacts to this attack, the nth in the last decade, be said to be in a hurry? These guys have repeatedly killed, killed and killed and on this wall, i've reacted so many times...how can this one be "in a hurry"? Moreover, my reaction is restricted to the killers...that's obvious, not so? If my friend, Abdul, was in the country right now, we would have had our usual hang-out this evening...he's Fulani and has never poisoned my drink in all the years i've known him, so why would I villify him?

      Clearly, I refer to the herdsmen killers and all who support them. I can't like people who don't like me. Not possible.

    • Abdulsalam Abubakar
      Abdulsalam Abubakar I've not heard the statement by the senator but i will do so , Asap.. The normal Fulani herdsmen have been living peacefully in all parts of this country for decades. I know they get involved in little skirmishes with farmers over destruction of crops and other farm inputs, but the scale of the recent attacks in Agatu and Nimbo is beyond what can be termed normal.. A careful and dispassionate investigation must be made to find out the root cause of the matter.. 
      A situation where the whole Southern States would start threatening all Fulani herdsmen cannot bring the desired solution to the crisis.. You can't sack a particular race from your region and expect your people to continue living peacefully in their own lands. 
      Any person or group of persons that kill innocent people must be brought to justice, and that is what PMB has directed security operatives to do.. Should we not allow the rule of law to prevail?

      Ja'afar Baba Muhammad I wonder ooo! How do you even go about ending Fulani arrogance as you call it? I think you're even more arrogant than an average fulani I know. None of us here is privy to exact situation that led to all these violent confrontations, no tribe no matter how strong or weak in Nigeria that haven't experienced one form ethnic crisis or the other in the last two decades. The orchestrated plan to demonise and demolish a whole region couldn't work, another evil scheme of propaganda is now unveiled. From the caption, I know this chap can do anything to poison gullible minds just to get cheap applause. If today a Fulani man should write a piece titled "Igbos deserve what they are getting" I bet even UN must hear a fabricated story of how Fulanis intend to carry out genocide on the whole Eastern Nigeria.

      Ifeanyi Ubaru At least three people have been killed in Aba, Abia State, in clashes that started at the popular Ariaria Market, several witnesses have told PREMIUM TIMES.
      The clashes began in the afternoon mostly between Igbo traders and their Hausa counterparts, th      ey said.
      One witness said the crisis started after a member of the Hausa community stabbed and killed an Igbo trader who reprimanded him for urinating near his store.
      Other Igbo traders rounded the assailant and lynched him, the witness said.

    Emmanuel Nicholas Goji Hammana Ahmad Sajoh the Hon Commissioner of Information, Adamawa State wrote: "Can't trust the Nigerian Ruling Elite with any "Reserve" the colonial masters created forest reserves that were gazetted, the ruling elite appropriated them without regards to the law. Today all the reserves in Adamawa belong to individuals. If they legislate grazing reserves they will eventually take them from communities and later send the grazers away and appropriate them as well, then the circle of violence will continue. But once people acquire their own land for grazing, no one will take them away so easily. What we can do is to ease the process of ownership of grazing lands and it's documentation. Forceful acquisition of land through whatever means including legislation is a recipe for further unending crisis."

    Ezeji Promise Charles Its unfortunate how we all as educated as we are would see and know the obvious truth and yet choose to bury our heads in lies. It is clear even to a blind man that Nigeria as presently constituted was built on a false foundation. Most of us making hat statements today on social media where not born during the civil war so how come we now spit such hate? It's simply because those things that led to the civil war still abound and even growing worse. It is far beyond a PDP/APC problem, the problem is simply that we need to restructure the sociopolitical system of this country or we peacefully break up. It's high time we stop deceiving ourselves and face the obvious truth because one wether we like it or not, if we refuse to confront th truth which is reality, one day the truth would confront us and it would be more disastrous.
