Naptu, Let me ask to do two things. 1. What is the alert from IGP for? Is it terror, religious uprising from muslims or shiites? You are master of history, we come to you for recalls from national archives. 2. Can you give me a recall of a time we had religious riot in South? |

MetaPhysical: I'm on the road at the moment and I don't just want to tell you about this thing. I want you to read it for yourself. (It's kind of difficult typing on this bumpy road). But I'll give you a short response. 1) The IGP says that it's in response to intelligence reports. We don't yet know the contents of those reports. 2) These things might start out as religious crisis, but they quickly become ethnic crises. There was an instance when there was a religious crisis in the north and corpses were brought back to Onitsha and there was violence against northerners as a result. During the 2001 violence against northerners in Nigeria, there was violence southerners in Kano as a consequence |

MetaPhysical: Most of the specific examples that I’m looking for occurred between 1999-2001 and it will be difficult to find those ones because most Nigerian websites that existed at that time no longer exist. However, this unfortunate incidents have occurred so many times that there are many more recent examples that I can post. This is one of them. Danish cartoons and reprisal violence in Onitsha At least 120 killed in sectarian strife in Nigeria http://www.nbcnews.com/id/11527911/ns/world_news-africa/t/least-killed-sectarian-strife-nigeria/#.XhLaJFVKjIU |
Re: Death Of Soleimani: Nigerian IGP Adamu Places Policemen On Red Alert Nationwide by naptu2: 8:15am On Jan 06, 2020 |
MetaPhysical: This is the reverse of the earlier article I posted and it refers to some of the previous violence that I mentioned. This time it's northerners attacking southerners in retaliation for attacks against northerners in the south. In 1999 and 2004, southerners and northern Christian in Kano were attacked in reprisal for the killing of northern Muslims in some southern cities.http://www.nsrp-nigeria.org/wp-content/uploads/2014/07/PolBrief-Kano-State-Govt-Response-to-Violent-Conflict.pdf |

MetaPhysical: That previous article about killings in Onitsha due to the riots about the Danish cartoons was from 2006. This report below is from 2012. These are the kind of things that the IGP is trying to prevent.

West2019:are you aware that the duty of internal security lies with the police? The IG is after internal security against those who plan to go violent not trying to engage in external fights. If you still font understand after this, abeg go rest |

I now understand before all these Muslims start doing nonsense. One of my fears is that if a war starts males would start being kidnapped to be illegally conscripted into the war. Trust those useless Americans. But last last Hitler wasted his strength on the Jews he should have looked to these muslims |

Re: Death Of Soleimani: Nigerian IGP Adamu Places Policemen On Red Alert Nationwide by MetaPhysical: 2:38pm On Jan 06, 2020 |
naptu2: Yeah, but these are reprisal attacks in South to avenge victims of religious attacks in North. These samples cannot be counted as religious attack. South has never had a religious attack even though Muslims and Christians cohabit in communities all over South. If there is intelligence that oil workers would be abducted and oil pipelines and operations would be attacked by militants, will the IGP issue a nationwide red alert? |

Re: Death Of Soleimani: Nigerian IGP Adamu Places Policemen On Red Alert Nationwide by naptu2: 3:38pm On Jan 06, 2020 |
MetaPhysical: The facts should be perfectly obvious now, except if you are arguing just for the sake of it. There have been many of these reprisal attacks, but I deliberately chose those articles. The issue, as you pointed out, is about lessons learnt. 1) There were attacks against northerners in Lagos c2001. Corpses of people that were killed in these attacks were taken to Kano in open trucks. People in Kano saw these corpses and went crazy. There were reprisal attacks on southerners in Kano. People complained. "WHY DID THE POLICE NOT ANTICIPATE THESE ATTACKS? WHY DID THEY ALLOW PEOPLE TO CARRY CORPSES IN OPEN TRUCKS INTO THE CITY? 2) A Danish magazine published cartoons about Prophet Muhammad. This led to riots in Maiduguri and Kano in 2006. Christians and southerners were killed in those riots. The news got to the south. Violence erupted in Onitsha. Youths targeted Muslims and northerners. Mosques were burnt. More people were killed in Onitsha than in any other city that experienced the riots. There was also violence in Enugu and Asaba. Ngerians complained. "WHY DIDN'T THE POLICE ANTICIPATE THESE REPRISAL ATTACKS? HOW COULDN'T THEY HAVE KNOWN THAT THERE WOULD BE REPRISALS?? Dr Ona Ekhomu was brought onto several TV shows to talk about the inability of the police to be proactive, to gather intelligence, and to put its men on alert to prevent or reduce these incidents. 3) A policeman killed a bus driver in Onitsha and Onitsha people were already fed up of northerners because of Boko Haram attacks. They found out that the policeman was a northerner and they immediately began attacking northerners. Now, you have admitted that the red alert is justified because of the threat of violence in the north, but you said that your grievance is that it should have been confined to the north. Do you really think that the police has not learnt from previous incidents? Don't you know that this is why the red alert is national? The police has now realised that there is a danger that there could be reprisal attacks and they are preparing for that, is there anything wrong in that? Many southern/Christian youths have declared that they are ready to teach northerners/Muslims that no one has a monopoly of violence and I think that's what's behind the reprisal attacks. If there's violence in the north today and southerners/Christians are attacked, then there's a high probability of reprisals in the south. It is the job of the police to prevent these two things from happening and to ensure that they do not escalate if they do occur. The US has just issued a travel advisory to its citizens, despite the fact that it's citizens have not been attacked. They did not wait for their citizens to be attacked first before issuing the advisory. Similarly, most people would not have expected that there would have been reprisal attacks in Onitsha. There have been riots in the north for decades, but we haven't really had these reprisal attacks until the 2000s and the police have learnt that they should not wait until there are attacks before they take action and that these attacks can occur in any state That's lessons learnt and there's absolutely nothing wrong with what the police have done. They've simply done their job 2 Likes 3 Shares |

naptu2: No, not at all...this is not a frivolous exchange, there is a political undertone to my disagreement. Yes Northerners were killed in Sagamu....ethnic, not religious. All the instances of attacks in South has always been ethnic, never religious. Lets cut this short. Naptu, there are pipelines all over the country....all way to Kaduna. If militants in South issue threat to attack pipelines will IGP issue a nationwide alert? He dare not...the Northerners will chew him out and quickly ask him to limit the alert to South. We in South are not religious fanatics, wether muslim or christian, why is a potential danger taken out of context of "lessons learnt" applied to us in this nationwide alert? Why couldnt it just be for North? |
Re: Death Of Soleimani: Nigerian IGP Adamu Places Policemen On Red Alert Nationwide by naptu2: 3:54pm On Jan 06, 2020 |
MetaPhysical: This is why I asked if the argument was genuine. You can't have read the article about the Danish cartoon and say that all conflicts in the south have been ethnic not religious. Should I quote from the article? 1 Like |

Here it is, I see it and already responded. 2) A Danish magazine published cartoons about Prophet Muhammad. This led to riots in Maiduguri and Kano in 2006. Christians and southerners were killed in those riots. The news got to the south. Violence erupted in Onitsha. Youths targeted Muslims and northerners. Mosques were burnt. More people were killed in Onitsha than in any other city that experienced the riots. There was also violence in Enugu and Asaba. In north christians were targeted. These included northern christians, midbelt christians, southwest christians, ss christians, se christians. In Onitsha, nother muslims lived there, midbelt muslims lived there, sw muslims lived there, ss muslims livsd there and se muslims lived in Onitsha. Can you not see that only northern muslims were attacked? It is not religious but ethnic. I repeat, we have never had a religious conflict in South....and no one should paint us with that brush. |
Re: Death Of Soleimani: Nigerian IGP Adamu Places Policemen On Red Alert Nationwide by MetaPhysical: 5:20pm On Jan 06, 2020 |
Naptu, Do you even agree that it would be wrong for IGP to issue nationwide alert if militants issue specific threat against oil pipelines, knowing that oil pipelines are nationwide? |
