What's The Future Of Southern Nigeria If The North Falls To Terrorists by tensazangetsu20(m): 6:57pm On Aug 14, 2021 |
I was watching a documentary today on CNN about the Talibans capture of a major city in Afghanistan. The first thing they did was to get all girls from age 12 and above for the commanders and various members to get married to and it got me thinking. The Taliban and the various terror groups in the north all share the same ideology. No amount of weapons or super intelligence can defeat this guys. I mean the USA poured in over 20 billion dollars in Afghanistan. Sent in high end weapons, trained the Afghan troops yet they still lost the war. 20 years gone, thousands of Americans dead and the war was lost. If a whole America couldn't defeat the Taliban what is the fate of the Nigerian army in winning the boko haram war. They are even recruited into the same army and people in the south are just sitting down. Whether people like it or not. Those guys will take over the north and when they do what happens to the south. I mean people make a lot of noise on social media but we all know southern tribes aren't used to wars or warrior like in nature compared to the north that has known and fought all kinds of wars. Even if the country divides as people want it to. Will independent southern nations have the resources to fight the terror groups in the north. With Afghanistan under taliban control it will become a training and funding ground for all forms of terror group. I have always predicted southern Nigeria to be like congo or Liberia in the future but with what's going on in the north it might be much worst than Afghanistan and Yemen put together. 168 Likes 19 Shares |

Nothing like mighty USA, even Russia lost the war in Afghanistan too..the mountainous terrain makes it difficult to stage war against the Taliban there. They are good in mountain warfare. Taliban and boko haram are two different set n fighting on different terrain too. Only a southern president with the political will can defeat n crush them.any northerner will not. 372 Likes 27 Shares |

Whether we'll win or not isn't the question. The question should be, have we tried to win this war? Since the days of GEJ, the northerners have been firmly behind Boko Haram. Some northerners are only against them now because they killed Muslims. Trust me, if Boko Haram and bandits targets were southerners and Christians alone, most northerns would still be firmly behind them. The northerns have done their best to frustrate the pseudo efforts of the government, especially this present administration. The thing seems like a joke to me, how can you send aides to pay for ransom to bandits and tell me you don't know where they are? You take pictures with them, have a round table discussion with them but yet, you don't know their locations? Remember what OBJ did in Niger Delta? How he cleared those militants after having a group discussion with them? Trust me, we can pull something as easy as that off, especially with the fact that majority of these Boko Haram and Bandits have very low IQ. There is a saying in yoruba that, if you don't play, you can't win. As for the future of the South, we have oil, we are intelligent amongst other things. The southern states are the best in Nigeria. It's the safest place to be in Nigeria. If you remove the northern affiliation and for the fact that we don't get to share revenues with the north who are much than us in terms of number of geopolitical zone, state and population, we will do very fine. We'll also easily attract foreign investors. 202 Likes 8 Shares |

Afghanistan shares border with Russia, yet Taliban no dey pass their boundary enter Russia because they know it will take Russia few hours to wipe out Taliban and join Afghanistan to Russia forever. So, of Book Haram takes over the Northern land of sorrow, tears and blood and fully establishes its government of killing and maiming, Lower Niger will protect and secure its boundaries 161 Likes 12 Shares |

Oga your story is shortlived. First of Russia got her ass whooped in Afghanistan. Second of all, USA, thoroughly dealt with Taliban, removed them from government, installed new govt etc. The next phase now is to teach Afghans to fight their own war. Which is what US would do eventually. Thirdly, America though not invincible is a master tactician. Withdrawal from Afghanistan and subsequently allowing terrorists taking over the country would be strategic. First, it will allow the oppressed China's Ughur region, to have direct access to a terror nation. And you know the problems in the Urghur region in China. Secondly, Taliban can easily seize Tajikistan and Uzbekistan which are at the backyard of Russia. Bringing terrorism into China-Russia mix would be a great tool for global dominance. Sacrificing Afghanistan to achieve that aim wouldn't be a difficult decision. Knowing that America has over 50 years experience dealing with terrorists, they have moved into the realm of using terrorists to achieve their aims. Rather than completely wiping them out. Don't forget that at the height of Iran-US crisis, there were insinuations that America wanted to activate ISIS who is arch enemy of Iran. If the global GDP is $80tr and your country alone controls $22tr out of it, you can do a lot. It will be very difficult for terrorists to overun the south if we remove govt interference. Because for one, they are easily identifiable compared to southern population. Secondly, the south is much smaller and less mountainous. Thirdly, we have more resources to fight a prolonged warfare than them, amongst others. 193 Likes 25 Shares |

Lol. Op needs to understand some tricky things before making some assertions. first of all if US should stay extra 50 years in Afghanistan, it will change nothing and also rivals like china and Russia cannot match US in operations like this. Taliban is Afghanistan and Afghanistan is Taliban, that is the only reason they are still existing, they had the support of the people quite frankly let face it, if 85k strong Taliban fighter should be taken care of right now, by tomorrow you get another 85, so it pointless occupying the country and that is what uncle sam realised. And yes Afghanistan has a difficult terrain you should study it and the fact is US air force cannot be conducting ops just anyhow there is something called the rules of engagement - they will not put the lifes of civilian at risk because they had their enemies in sight. Don't worry boko haram is a business operations established by ur leader they are hated in the south. 70 Likes 2 Shares |

Seun:if things get worse than it is right now,is it not as good as fallen? Oga seun try and see the bigger picture and see the fact that the country is irredeemable.ten years ago if anybody tell you that southerners will be killed in their own land,you will never believe it but alas it's happening. My take is this that every reasonable southerner should support the balkanization of the country. There is no two ways about it 83 Likes 5 Shares |

Let them handle their fake and staged insecurity. Nigeria isn't a real country and therefore not worth keeping together. The problem of the north is very similar to witchcraft. They carry an inferiority complex that goes down all the way to the spirit. Their own idea of measuring up to those they envy isn't to grow but to pull others down. That's why since 1950s they have been crying about underdevelopment but constantly rechannel the funds given to them for other less important things. They oppose simple things that can move the nation forward because they want to catch up by all means. 54 Likes 2 Shares |
