We Will Rather Lose Our Goods - Northern Traders by MuguVideosComm: 8:29am On Mar 03, 2021 |
We will rather lose our goods – Northern traders insist on continuing food blockade to the South Northern traders under the aegis of Amalgamated Union of Foodstuff and Cattle Dealers of Nigeria (AUFCDN) have vowed to continue the food blockade to the Southern part of the country, in spite of being at risk of losing their perishable goods. Awwalu Aliyu, an official of the union who spoke to TheCable stated that the aim of the food blockade is not to starve Southerners but to protest against the killing and destruction of properties belonging to Northerners. Aliyu who restated the group's claim of Northerners being killed and losing properties especially during the #EndSARS protest and the recent Shasha market crisis in Ibadan, the Oyo state capital, added that it will be better for them to lose food items locked up inside trucks in Jebba, Niger state than losing their lives. When asked if members of the union were not concerned about food items locked up inside trucks in Jebba, Niger state, going bad and leading to losses, Aliyu said; “It would be better to lose the food items than to lose lives. “You’re talking about losing goods; which one is better, to lose a life or to lose property? Losing property is better than losing a life. “We prefer and our people will prefer to lose those farm items or goods than to continue losing their lives. If you are alive, you can plant another thing, you can rear another cattle. But if you’re dead, you can’t do that again. Only the living can go to the farm. “We do not want to destroy anybody. We do not want to kill anybody. The number of Yorubas and Ibos that reside in Kano and Kaduna alone is far more than the number of northerners in the entire south-west, south-south and south-east. “Also, the investments of Yorubas and Igbos in Kano and Kaduna, running into billions of naira is more than the entire investments of northerners in the south-west, south-east and south-south if you remove Dangote. Our people are only petty traders, shoe shiners, fingernail cutters, wheelbarrow pushers, okada riders and so on. “Our people in the south don’t have what southerners have in the north. They have farmlands, buildings and a lot of properties that run into billions. We do not intend to touch a needle out of it. We do not intend to destroy anybody’s property. What we want is to have our people protected from being killed.” https://web.muguvideos.com/2021/03/03/we-will-rather-lose-our-goods-northern-traders-insist-on-continuing-food-blockade-to-the-south/

MuguVideosComm: So these people value human lives like this and they kept silent all these years as their fulani herdsmen brothers killed southerners and Christian northerners in their farms? Is it not hypocrisy or is this a form of taqqiya? 2 Likes |

Time for southerners to ostracize and possibly demonize the northerners living in southern Nigeria. Avoid them like a plague. The gatemen living in your compound, evict them! Don't patronize the aboki okada riders, tailors, cobblers etc Avoid their beggars. Nevee patronize anything Aboki again. You can't be deliberately wicked to us and expect us to be nonreactive. #boycott_northerners. Let's see the end of this madness. |

To hell with your food we don't need your food, if you people bring the food to the South shame on you |
Re: We Will Rather Lose Our Goods - Northern Traders by oneolajire(m): 9:23am On Mar 03, 2021 |
Don't worry, you people will soon beg the southerners to colonize you.��� You absolutely mis calculated. You did good blockade during beginning of planting season. We have picked the message, to prepare for planting, and in one month out farms will be ready. Glory to God, your killer herdsmen are leaving our forest and farmland, so we can return to farm.�� |

This ban MUST stay in place for at least a year. By that time southerners would have cultivated local alternatives for most of the impacted crops. There is NOTHING we buy from the north that can't be produced in the south, we just chose to move away from large scale farming. This action from the north is perfect. They are simply dennying themselves a market of over 100M people that gap will be filled by southern farmers. The ACF know this which is why they are saying the action is counter productive. Even if the ban is lifted southerners should boycott northern produce. It'll be a year of discomfot tops, a price worth paying for long term food security. No to aboki. No to fulani. No to herdsmen!! |
