We'll organize fasting and prayer in all Southern states no food, no water till those Bandits and their sponsors all die or turn a new leaf

Karleb:
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.

Seun:
We can't let the north fall to terrorists. You may say it's already fallen, but the truth is that things could get much worse.

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 DON'T THINK YOU ARE OK, YOU ARE SICK WITH YOUR PREDICTIONI 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.

NaWeDeyHere:
The Past, Present, and Future of Nigeria are ISLAM even the British Missionaries and Colonialists knew that from the beginng.

Christians are a Sizeable MINORITY in this geographical expression called Nigeria. Accept it and stop staring at UCHE face all the time. Muslim regions in Nigeria get funding and weapons from other Muslim nations as far as Turkey and Iran. they are more in population and unity than the self-sabotage South/East (with all their iPod and Oduduwa noise)

The end is inevitable thus it will come

Foreigna2:
Boko Haram and Islamic terrorism in Nigeria can be wiped out within 3 months if 5 things are done.

1. All captured and surrendered Boko Haram members should be executed.

2. Military commanders from Plateau, Taraba and Benue will lead the various units.

3. Foreign mercenaries should be brought in to lead attacks. Our soldiers will do clearance and hold gained ground.

4. Night attacks and ambushes are preferred. Night vision equipment should be provided. Boko rams don't have enough night vision equipment to go round. Surprise them at night and let the clearance forces finish them off at daybreak.

5. Arrest and jail all those involved in military procurement for the past 16 years. Use BVN to trace their assets and confiscate them.

I don't believe the terrain shit. Russia was there for over 20 years and studied the terrain and failed. The USA was there for over 20 years studied the terrain and failed. Even If the terrain was horrible for foot soldiers what about the USA air force and it's various drones.

naija4life247:
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

valentineuwakwe:
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.

Powersurge:
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.

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.

Supan:


You are an expert analyst. 100% correct

Only kids will believe that US with all their might, lost the war in Afghanistan without winning elsewhere. The US media is doing a good job playing the minds of pple.

China and it's interest is about to start taking hits from all Arab jihad moquades now.

tensazangetsu20:

Do you think the south has the resources to build a wall. The south is also very poor too.

KillingIsFun:
They come for the heads of anyone who makes stupid suggestions. There's nothing invincible or special about Islamic terrorists. To suggest that they are is dumb beyond belief.

The only reason why the Taliban are easily erasing 20 years of American presence is because it is the people of Afghanistan themselves who are the Taliban.

In Nigeria, the situation is very different for so many reasons. The North isn't a monolith. The Middle Belt like Benue, Plateau, Taraba and Kogi will NEVER agree to join the core north as Jihadists. Things may look indifferent in the South, but that's because of the peculiarities of the Nigerian political system which makes politicians betray their constituencies for selfish reasons. Take away the Nigerian factor and ask Southeners to fight for their lives and freedom, and you'll have an entirely different story.

STOP assuming everyone else is as myopic and cowardly as you are.
