Good, the soldier thought he was in Enugu where the police were alleged to have joined in killing our people and nothing happened. Now his action has sent more than five Hausa men to their grave. Please the governor should forget about the vigilante group being supervised by the Commissioner of police. Na the same people, instead an agency under the governor can monitor them. 2 Likes |

Yorubanews:of course, you should've stood up for yourself in mile12 after all mile12 incident started with just one person, how come it spread and escalated to burning of up to 8 houses and all ![]() You are in the Internet blowing hot air and clapping for the same people that caused havoc in your own land. Me think we southerners are somehow cursed with irrational reasoning. Any southerner that rejoices when a people from the southern region is hit should understand that the killings in the north does know any ethnic boundary, once you look Igbo you are dead unless you defend and protect yourselves. |

SirVintageCock: It's understandable if your recollection of the Mile 12 event is warped because you're ibo. A whole community attacking one man when they couldn't face a group of herdsmen is cowardice. No, you ran to the next village, but you can grow wings when there's only one of them. |

Yorubanews:why disturb yourself everyday and night talking about them. One thing is for sure no matter how you go about it you cannot relegate these people in Nigeria. Marginalising any will always have ugly impact on the nation that is why everyone's interest always get to the roof anytime there is tension between or within them. Their ability to gather a significant population for a course and stand by it through tick and thin cannot be over ruled, so i see no reason telling me no one takes us or them serious. |

I think you are the one with a warped knowledge of what went down on your doorstep. Your Agbero brothers including their mothers and fathers ran away from Mile12 when the Awusa-Fulani murderous duo went to town on them and their place of abode while the rest of you folks came crying on the Internet. So shut it. Yorubanews: |

Scholes007: Why dusturb yourself talking about Yorubas, blaming Yorubas for your failures? And try not to lie by saying you people don't. Yorubas are the most peaceful nation in this country. How we got attached to two bloodthirsty tribes is beyond me. |
Re: Abia State Govt Condemns Aba Riot, Vows To Prosecute The Soldier Involved by Yorubanews: 5:28pm On May 07, 2016 |
SirVintageCock: So you Igbo cowards think having a whole community against one person is bravery but you couldn't face 5 of them? |
