This statement was made by President Goodluck Jonathan on 24th June 2012 during his media chat on NTA; “They believe that when they attack a church, Christian youths will revolt against Muslim youths, and they don’t care about who dies in the process. “They also think that government will be destabilised when they are attacking churches. Watch out, if it doesn’t work, of course, we will stop it, but if it doesn’t work, the same Boko Haram will start attacking mosques to instigate Muslim youths to attack Christians.” The following Friday bombs were discovered at Fagge mosque in Kano. This is not hearsay or a lie but a verifiable fact. I remember this statement more than anything else he said during that chat because it set off bells in my head. I had to dig for full text of the chat to make sure he actually said it. My question is, how did he know? Now add this utterance to others he has made over the last few years and bells start to ring. He said in January 2012 that Boko Haram had infiltrated his government he also claimed to know who they are at one point. On why he was treating Boko Haram with kid gloves he said "They are our siblings; you can't set the army to go and wipe out your family". I said it before and I will say it again, this government aren't cowards, they are willing collaborators. Nigerians are dying everyday while they play politics with our lives. Many times they threatened to reveal the names of the sponsors but failed to do so and when an Australian priest affiliated with the government mentioned names he was quickly discredited and disowned by the government. Why is it that a bomb always goes off when there is a crisis in government? They have intentionally created chaos so as to divide Nigerians along ethno-religious lines and they have succeeded so far because we have been the most ignorant and gullible human beings since 2010. The lie has become the truth and the truth a lie. If Nigerians have ever needed a reason to unite and stand firm to say "Enough is enough", this is it. We are better than this. We need to hold the government accountable and take appropriate action. 4 Likes |

nagoma:Correct sentence should have been: Britain, Russia, Arab Jihadists, and 350 Nigerian ethnic groups prosecuted the successful war. nagoma:When it becomes necessary? Really? When will that be? Ok, I'll take your word for it. Just don't forget to wake me when 'it becomes necessary' 'cause I'm about to go on sleep-mode. nagoma:Yea, I agree totally with you on this one. But on a closer look it seems like the 50,000 is split down the middle: 25k from south working to stop BH + 25k from north giving BH military intel and field strategy. Seems to me like 25k + (-25k) equals zero. Hmm! No wonder its not working. nagoma:You'll agree with me that no matter the horrible state of southern education, it's a 1000 miles better than Almajiri and wahabi indoctrination. At least we rarely kill each other for stupid reasons. And you wonder why Shekau's motto is "Western education is sin?" |

SamIkenna: Shekau is my enemy but your friend because he makes the north insecure to your delight.so his Motto has nothing to do with me but the truth is southern claim to education did not translate to wisdom , democracy and rule of law over the years. A wise man solves problems and doesn't give excuses in a job he is employed to do. |

SamIkenna: You ungrateful lot will not acknowledge the support you had from Milton Obote of Uganda, Julius Nyerere of Tanzania, h. Boingny of Ivory Coast, the crusaders of America, General De Gaul of France and many more. In any case what stopped you from getting help , if as you claim , you fought and lost all alone? |

nagoma: Don't get it twisted, I'm not delighted on the ongoing carnage in your region. My beef with people from your region is that they seem to enjoy avoidable violence and catastrophe in this age of freedom, intense competition, and limitless knowledge. Given that this path of violence and stagnation appeals to them, one would've expected a concerted effort on their part to live alone in their sharia-land instead of creating untold hardship and terror for other non-core northern Nigerians. I'm not sure I have any interest in dragging 1967 issues into your plight any further. It seems revisiting events of 67 gives folks like you the impression that we're laughing at you - that's childish. If anything at all, it is that I want you to be gone so the rest of us can have a moment of peace before we meet our creator. And for emphasis, the word 'gone' doesn't imply death or extermination, it means having an independent Arewa republic where you'll practice your religion, live your life, and make laws as you deem fit since history has shown (1945 - 2014) that you can't tolerate secularism. |

SamIkenna: I have no qualms about separation and I have said it innumerable times on these pages. What is worrying is your ambivalence about an idea you so cherish, at least superficially. You say one thing and the next breadth you say the opposite. When the real possibility of separation arises you all go back into your shells. You cannot afford to lose the expanse of land and what land means. As igboland is only 3.1% of Nigeria's area and is mainly eroded and leached soil of no real use for agriculture and contains no minerals. The idea of separation was presented at the clandestine national conference and all the southerners went mute. I can understand your personal (Sam Ikenna ) issue, which is vendetta over a perceived offence of the civil war. You can't bring yourself to accept it and want to see the north punished for it, hence your challenge for the north to secede. North should come up with their own Ojukwu as you suggested. You are obviously celebrating the murderous carnage going on unchecked in the north. Unchecked by a southern despotic government. You must be having a party this weekend celebrating the deaths in kano. At least you are getting some blood and some ounces from the pound of flesh you so desperately crave for from the north. But One other issue you consistently refused to address is my question about southern educated people in government clearly unable to present a wisdom that can develop Nigeria instead of the selfish primitive materialism and corruption that characterizes the southern regimes - especially the current criminal leadership. Why can't you address this? |
Re: Update More Than 200 People Dead In Bomb Blast At Kano Central Mosque +photo NTA by SamIkenna: 10:47pm On Nov 29, 2014 |
nagoma: Nwanne, I don't know why you keep regurgitating the name, Ojukwu. I guess it's in line with a civil war time paper I read some time ago in which every Dick and Harry on the Nigerian side of the divide blamed Ojukwu for Nigeria's problem. They went as far as saying that once Ojukwu was killed, captured, or gotten out of the way that Nigeria would be peaceful, calm, rich, united, and other yati yati yada. They got their wish with Biafra's surrender, yet where is the peace and unity and the yati yati yada? where is the beaf? Nothing! No peace, no unity, no nothing. I wish I kept that newspaper. I think it was online though, perhaps one of these days I'll look for it and post it on NL. Folks need to read the promises Jihadists and their collaborators made to delusional Southerners and MB who joined in a moment of hate-filed frenzy. But that's a matter for another day. Right now, you're making the same mistake. You think dragging Ojukwu into your mess will secure you a good dose of sympathy, it won't buddy. The man is long gone. He's probably done rendering account of himself to his maker, so let's lay off him for awhile and concentrate on current and more pressing issues. I understand you think I want revenge for whatnot. Well, in some sense you're right. But the kind of revenge I want has nothing to do with Boko Haram terror cell that kills Northern Christians and moderate Muslims. I mean look at the north, is there any week that passes by without one group descending on another? From Ombatse to Tiv to Fulani to Berom to Boko Haram, it's like one week one ethnic clash and one mass grave. Common! Even Hitler himself would have wanted this nonsense to stop. My revenge is to have the wolf separated from the sheep since the wolf can't get along with anyone. I'm not mythical Dracula - I do not need your blood. You want me to address why southern education has failed to provide direction, or should I say "crime-free" leadership to Nigeria. Hmm! That's a big one. Well, I guess its safe to say that southern education has, in some sense, failed to deliver because of the 40 year rot perpetrated by Hausa-Fulani passi passi and padi padi leadership. Education doesn't equal miracle. Education is more like a seed while the nation is akin to a soil. What your Hausa-Fulani brothers didn't realize was that by holding the nation (soil) hostage for 40 years they denied Nigeria the opportunity to grow her seed. Is it any wonder today that Nigerian doctors and engineers make up the bulk of African professionals and intellectuals in the US and UK? If southern education was a complete sham like you claimed, why are southern Nigerian professionals still very much respected in developed countries? I've been to 3 colleges in the US yet my eyes never for a day saw one Hausa-Fulani in any institution of Knowledge. I've seen Ogoni, tiny Ogoni, I've met Bini, Ghana, Uganda, Congo, you name it - these people are here competing with the rest of the world while Hausa-Fulani is in Nigeria killing NYSC students. Anyways, sorry for digressing a bit but the point is: Yes, southern education hasn't lived up expectations. However, if one takes an objective stock on the factors that impeded Nigeria's education, south or north, it's unmistakable where the chunk of the blame lies. Chew on that nagoma. 2 Likes |

SamIkenna: Southern so called " educated civilized and better people" have failed to deliver good governance "because of the rot of 40 years of Hausa/Fulani rule " just listen to your self. This excuse spewed every day telling us that all southerners were absent during those 40 years should stop by now. About the northerners seeking education as immigrants in the west , I agree that southerners see the west as heaven and would do anything , absolutely anything to live in America or Europe. What you forgot to mention is that almost all the Nigerians in western prisons are also southerners , so are the Nigerian toilet cleaners, fast food vendors, security night guards and taxi drivers in the west. The fact is the desperation for migration to west , you will remember your brothers who cling to wheel compartments of aircraft and those who perish walking across the Sahara and of course the love peddlers in Italy and Europe. So don't bring that crap about southerners being " respected professionals" in the west. Every day there is a story of Nigerian drug courier caught in Malaysia, Thailand or China and they are all southerners , so are the 419 criminals. When we travel , we sometime have take the pain to explain that we are actually northerners to alleviate the criminal label internationally labelled on Nigerians because of your kith and kin. This is exactly why Nigeria will not progress under southerners. The criminal nature is spread right across the so called educated and uneducated southerners.- this is the problem with Jonathan's government. Criminality , irresponsibility , absence of morality and primitive urge to take, take and take, to own ,own ,own without end even though human lifespan is just a century as maximum. All of them are looking for is the opportunity to cheat. To them Mandela was a fool for not amassing wealth when he was president , Gandhi was stuipid for going half naked when he could have a good law practice in England and work as a second class citizen. I can go on and on . |

Trailblazer1: This should tell you that BokoHaram is not about Sharia and it is not about Islam. It is about something else, it is only orchestrated to appear like it is about Islam. The north has Sharia already, the north has muslim leadership already, the social life of the average northerner is close to islamic already. Boko Haram is a smoke screen. |
