The North has been battling with widespread insecurity since the last decade and it is no longer news that most parts of Northern Nigeria continues to experience widespread killings and kidnappings. However, while Southern Nigeria has been relatively peaceful and calm over the years, any observer can notice that insecurity is gradually becoming the order of the day, especially in the SW. This is no doubt the reason why they formed Amotekun out of desperation. As a good student of history and geography, I have carefully studied several factors on the risk the South is facing, expecially the SW and prognosis is not looking good at all. Here are the 3 reasons why SW would be the first Southern region to be overrun if nothing decisive is done to stop the Invaders.

1. Environmental Factor: one of the major reasons why Northern Nigeria is facing widespread insecurity that has proven difficult to curtail is due to their environment with hills, valleys and extensive impenetrable jungles. Boko Haram and herdsmen/bandits are known to operate freely in such hideous terrain. Unlike the SE and SS that are mostly plain lands with very few impenetrable jungles, SW on the other hand share similar environment with Northern Nigeria. There are lots of hills and impenetrable jungles that are far from habitations. These places would easily provide convenient abode for these terrorists to launch attacks from and still return to the "safe havens". OPC raised alarm not long ago that over 1000 fulani herdsmen cells are already in the region.

2. Religion: SW is split almost equally between Christians and Muslims. This would make it easy for bandits (who are mostly Muslims) to mix with locals and infiltrate them with ease. With Mosques situated all over the SW, this would no doubt make it easy for the bandits to arrive and mingle with locals without being detected unlike the SE and SS minus Edo state, that are overwhelmingly Christians with very few Mosques.

3. Proximity: the 1840 invasion of Fulanis and subsequent take over of Illorin gave the Fulanis a foothold in the SW. They have not only crossed the River Niger but are now in control of a strategic nodal town and with only a short distance to the Yoruba heartland. However, in contrast, there is no known Muslim stronghold talk more of Fulani settlement anywhere close to the South East or South South (except Auchi). Moving down East from the North will mean crossing Christian strongholds like Plateau and Benue states before getting to Enugu. The implications of this is that bandits will mostly feel like fishes out of water in the East than in the West where they have fall back positions.

hmmm

This is meant to be an educative and enlightening thread to gain insight and not for ethnic sentiments. So, if you have superior logic, you can say it here.

The difference between Europeans and we Africans is that while the former is often proactive in all there doings, the latter on the other hand is always reactive. That is why they're smart and always avert untoward consequences unlike us that always end up consumed by it.

Yamree obsession with Yoruba

You worship Yoruba, crave to be in Yoruba land, make noise about Yoruba leaders. Like Tinubu and Obasanjo

Coming from Nyamuri dondo Doya. Whose land has been taken over by the same Fulani but no! They never mind their business but wish SW will fall.

Sorry!

ok

Bandits in Zamfara, kastina and Kaduna villages that can't even be able strike the Cities??


Out of 19 Northern state... We are facing security challenges in 3 northern states... That happens to be villages.

But because of the love and unity in the north... We share the pains of these states protesting and demanding for a secured north.

But bigots online and offline would come to tell you whole the whole northern states has been terrorized.

Once their is kidnapping in any village in Zamfara.

They will tell you tell that kidnapers are kidnapping in the north.

They will never tell you people were kidnapped in a village in Zamfara or Kastina rather they would say north.

They're are doing and this to send a signal that the whole of Northern state is unsafe.


Gombe is one of the safest state in Nigeria.

Bauchi is safe!!

Kano is safe!!

Adamawa is safe!!

Yobe is safe!!

Jigawa is safe!!

Kebbi is safe!!

Taraba is safe!!

And other northern states that hardly record case of robbery in a year.

But children of hate would come online to tell the world how unsafe the whole northern region is.

The north will continue growing stronger!!

The north will continue developing... So keep the hatred coming!

Nyamuri dondo Doya stop wishing SW evil, mind your business.

They're coming to get you.

I'm waiting for them. I know they hate the truth and would rather attack the messenger instead of tackling the message.

If only you wish the Yorubas well, this message should get you singing Yoruba ronu by now

What has this long epistle you wrote or the pictures you posted got to do with anything? Same North a girls secondary school was attacked and female children kidnapped by evil minded bandits only last night is the one you're saying is safe?? Even the Chibok girls kidnapped in similar manner years ago are yet to be freed. Same North where no one can travel on the highway or railways without risking being kidnapped is the one you're claiming to be safe?
The same North were farmers were gruesomely massacred a few days ago?

You can continue decieving yourself Mr. Ostrich but it's unfortunate that denying it won't wish away the sorry situation on ground.

like I said keep deceiving yourself.

North is not a name of state... North has 19 states.

So when there is kidnapping in kastina, Zamfara or Kaduna villages... You have to specify!!

Not stereotyping the whole northern region just because you want everybody to hate the north the way you do.

You are right omo Igbo. Our states are now surrounded by fulani herdsmen, we are kidnapped & killed daily by fulani. Our states are no longer safe, fulanis are already planning how to invade fully and overrun our lands, we are now running away from our lands to the yeast cuz our lands are gone to the fulanis.

Now won't you pick your phone and call your flatron brothers & sisters to return home, the land isn't safe no more. And also advice those that just stuffed themselves inside okudili trunk to not go ahead with the travelling to SW, at least you've seen it's no longer safe here.

Eleribu omo nna.

Nyamuri dondo Doya stop wishing SW evil, mind your business.

If only you're intelligent, you will be thanking me for being proactive in drawing your attention to what could lead to loss of lives. What I'm doing here is the sort of studies/research progressive societies do to avoid untoward consequences but as a typical African fatalist you are, you will rather live in denial until it's too late to do save your neck.

I really don't understand what you're saying because you ain't making no sense! Is Katsina, Zamfara and Kaduna no longer North? What about Borno, Yobe, Sokoto, Niger etc that are facing the same problem?

I can see that you've come to see such killings and kidnappings as normal way of life because that's the only reason you will be saying these. If only you can travel out to some places outside your domain and see how peaceful life is meant to be lived, you won't be saying all these.

Taking Panadol on others headache.

The same region they are wishing evil is the same region that has been accommodating their fore father's since 19BL. A visit to Ojota park will show how they are leaving their erosion ravage region enmass to the greener pastures ( SW)

yobe is safer than Anambra!!

Niger is safe than Ebonyi...

So now listen to me... Northern is fast developing!!

Those villages in Zamfara, kastina and Kaduna would soon be safe...

So keep deceiving yourself don't go and develop your backward region

Continue living in denial. By the time you will understand what is going on, it will be too late.

Yoruba people are born with blocked ears. Trying to reason with them is like trying to reason with a rock. All you will receive is insults after insults.

If everyone in the North has the same mentality as yours, then the region doomed. It was the same mindset that brought you guys to this level already but I can see that no lesson has been learnt.

Believe me, the insecurity that is being experienced now would be worse in the coming years because you guys will rather use propaganda to cover the deplorable situation instead of holistically finding a way out.

Meanwhile, the East is still topping in all developmental indices and MDG's and that's where development really matters most and not building roads with no cars to ply it.

Look at this one, having revealed what's happening in your back while you chose or turn a blind eye to yours, poke nosing into another man's business I can confidently say the words " living in denial ' fits you well.

Nonsense!

How dare you tagged a whole great tribe such nonsense? Are you ok at all?

Check Eastern cities and rural areas then compare them with your rustic towns and villages and tell me which one looks like modern day settlements fit for humans.

Igbos are capitalists who invest anywhere and repartriate profits home. That's why our cities and villages are beautiful.

What's the land mass of all the SE states? Almost same size with Oyo state alone, yet you guys can't develop it...

What's the Total land mass of Abia state that almost all the roads are in dilapidated?

You people are the real trouble makers
