What I will tell my Igbo brethren is to learn from the North for the last ⏲, never ever think the Fed Govt is behind what's happening in the SE.

Apart from IPOB, there re Igbo traditional rulers, Biz Men, Politicians etc that re funding the killings in the SE. I find it hard to believe that South Easterners re repeating the mistakes of the North, a mistake we are paying heavily for until date & only God knows when it will end.

When you allow non state actors access arms under any guise, I can guarantee you that you will be a victim

What the North brings to the Nigerian table re Mass Killings, Insurgency, Child Marriage, Leprosy, VVF, out of School Children etc

But its priority is the personal lives of people; how Southerners re so tolerant that they haven't pushed to be separated from the North baffles me You love garnishing your sectarian beliefs dubbing it as islam is good only if you form a country of your own where sharia courts, boko haram & bandits will be competing on who will kill more people than the other

Why torture Southerners with your ineptitude?

Here's the reason why there's rise in number of deaths amongst Northern elites recently using the ordeal of the late ex governor of Borno, Mohammed Goni as a case study as narrated by his Son.

Kindly rt so those who re supposed to equip facilities learn from it.

Issa thread Listen to his son Umar Goni: " Our dad was sick around 9_10 pm, we rushed him to the Teaching Hospital, to mu surprise, we couldn't find a single doctor. None of the consultants was around, once they tell them a patient is around, they run thinking he's a Covid 19 patient

Sectarian islam will face similar fate in 3 decades as ppl will look back & see how it has been used as a tool to impoverish, make them ignorant & oppress them

Just yesterday I ws discussing with @Galafi_Hamma & I told him I don't see any diff btwn islam, Christianity & trad rel Infact anything that goes by d name 'religion' is the same in my eyes in the hands of those who use it as a tool

Its foundation is makin Women inferior then it makes d poor & masses inferior to leaders no matter how corrupt then promotes those who preach it to the vicars of God

I want the best brains in the North to debate here.

We initially bought into the idea of GEJ wanting to depopulate the North/adopt Paul Biya's style after he took over power from Ahidjo Ahmad bcos of his outburst over 1st October bombings in which he exonerated MEND in 2010. We used our all in the North to vote him out, truly he didn't take the insurgency seriously until towards election period

It's 4yrs gone but the North east isn't still secured worse is the entire North west is sinking in a very short period of time with no attn from @MBuhari

So less than 2 decades after Shari'a was adopted in Zamfara the state remained poor & underdeveloped also it has become home to mass killings, kidnappings, armed robbery, cattle rustlin, educational backwardness

Can any Zamfarian tell me the progress Shari'a brought in silence Yes we know of the man whose hand was cut off for stealing also the woman sentenced to death for adultery also.

I am interested in knowing what Shari'a brought that affected the lives of poor Muslims who voted for Yerima with the thought it will better their lives

If there's anything I respect Christians on this street for is as much as possible they don't drag Christianity into the Stupidity of any Man in their society.

Do u know there's a verse of the holy bible that Shut a woman 4 asking question in the church & told her to ask her son When they get home? But u will NEVER see any Christian quoting that verse on this street to avoid painting their religion bad but if such verse existed in the holy Qur'an we won't hear word, hadiths that's contradictory is even being used every now & then let alone Quranic verse

I recalled sometimes in June this yr, I was told a particular Lady betrothed her dota to her friend's son in Kaduna, the girl was 15 while the guy was 29, the hope of both Mums was by January 2019 the pair will be married.

I asked them why they can't wait until d girl turn 18? They said she can turn 18 in her husband's house, in fact she's writing waec in his house self that after waec he will decide if she will further her education or become a full time house wife

I felt sad & asked them why does her future depends on him?
