*PRESS RELEASE BY THE MIDDLE BELT YOUTH COUNCIL.* *DATE: 7TH JUNE, 2017* We wish to express our profound gratitude to God for keeping us alive today. Middle Belt Youth Council is extremely concerned about the ongoing regional tension in Nigeria today and we want to make our position clear to the world. In the light of incessant threats to one Nigeria posed by killer-herdsmen, we want to call on good people of Middle Belt to first of all, *support the Anti-grazing Bill.* Grazing by Fulani herdsmen on our land has become the major cause of conflicts in our region therefore, we’re calling for total ban on open grazing so as to save the lives of our people and their farmlands. Secondly, it’s no longer news that our country Nigeria is facing a daunting challenge of peace and unity but we want to assure the good citizens of Nigeria that we have been a peace-loving people and we’ll continue to be. But, in an event one part of the country decides to go away as a separate entity, Middle Belt is also ready to make an independent statement. We want to clarify those who think that the Middle Belt is part of the North: God created everywhere and everyone and He gave it to whom He chooses and Middle Belt is a creation of God and not man (Usman bn Fodio). Therefore, we choose what to use our land for, how to run it and where we want to be. Middle Belt has been a home for the Ohanaeze Ndigbo, South-South and the South-West without any form of discrimination against anyone. We’ve accommodated every Nigerian for centuries now. We deserve respect and commendations. If the Arewa youths are sending away Igbos from their states, we in the Middle Belt are ready to offer them accommodation in our land (which is an inheritance from God and nobody will take it away from us) for them to continue with their life and businesses. Southern Nigeria people should also know that ‘Middle Belters’ are not northerners and we can never be because we’re not affiliated in terms of culture, language, education, economy, and general lifestyle. The Biafran struggle did not come as an accident but as a result of injustice and unfair treatment to regions, people or religion. Over the years, our federalism has been a fat lie that deprives political rights and freedom of some sections of the country while others benefit immensely from it. Middle Belt has been at the receiving end of this inequitable arrangement in which our people in Southern Kaduna, Southern Bauchi, Southern Borno, Southern Kebbi, Adamawa are under constant alienation and annihilation. Therefore, Middle Belt strongly stands for reconstruction of Nigeria not only restructuring. We’ll join hands with Southern Nigerian people to actualize it. In view of this press statement, we want to urge Middle Belters to remain resolute in making sure we protect our future against the claims by the Hausa/Fulani. More so, for want of peace and unity of dear country Nigeria, we call on Igbo nation to feel at home in the Middle Belt in an event they are sent away from the Arewa land. God bless Nigeria! God bless the Middle Belt. Signed: President, Emma Zopmal http://etimes.com.ng/middle-belt-youths-shades-arewa-north-sides-south-east-igbo/ 9 Likes |

Trut:Nope. This is a public forum but he cannot be breaking the law for the sake of your 'free speech'. Free speech has its limits. Do you read the kind of things people post here? Things that'd get you profiled assuming they were against America and the CIA was on to you. This is 'Nairaland', a NIGERIAN forum and he cannot go to jail like Kemi Olunloyo, or allow his forum to be a breeding ground for hatred and incitement. If you're looking for where to channel all your hate, create your own forum. Its his forum. He has to be pro government. Law abiding. When GEJ was in power it was the same on Nairaland. Seun for example is an atheist who has nothing against gay people, but when the bill was signed in the last administration, he had to make sure he updated the rules accordingly to comply with the law. Its simple as that, he isn't biased towards any side. His mods, however, might be a different story. |

PLENTY JOKERS, PLENTY COMEDY.
Emeka(real name) is in Lagos,
married with 3 kids and you see
him locking his plaza anytime and
every time in support of Biafra.
Emeka recently bought two plots of land around Badagry and
already the foundations to a 4
bedroom masterpiece is taking
shape on that land. Emeka is from
Anambra state, a single pin he
owns not to his name in the village. Yet in Lagos, Emeka goes
about shouting for all to hear
'Biafra or I die'.
.
.
Musa(not real name) is in Kaduna, tired of a constant nagging
national anthem from Emeka,
Musa assumes a potentially
dangerous identity and declares a
90 days ultimatum telling the
Emeka's that all of them can leave his domain and disappear to their
Biafra. Failure to do so, they
would be forcefully evicted.
.
.
Dapo(maybe it is me, maybe it is not) is falling for a pretty
intelligent damsel whom he is yet
to tell how he feels about her. He
is worried that he as a Nigerian
won't be in love with another
Nigerian but rather a foreigner called Biafran. What an anomaly,
for he would be needing to travel
from one country into another
just to see his in-laws who were
once neighbors but now
foreigners. .
.
Dapo's case is small, love they
say can break barriers, although
who knows how much a Biafran
pound would exchange for when the time for dowry ever comes.
For it is often said that the dowry
to marry from that region in
Nigerian Naira can make a young
man hug a transformer, how
much more would it be in Biafran pounds. Just hope by then Dapo
won't tell the Oba of Lagos(that
one that told Emeka to jump into
the Lagoon) to allow him dive into
the water when he is told to bring
3 billion Biafran pounds which would be about #300 million
Nigerian Naira before he can
marry their beautiful Abian
princess. That is if they even
agree to allow him after the
second civil war that led to a separation.
.
.
Musa the unknown spokesperson
declaring absolute and beautiful
bunkum on behalf of the entire Northern youth is already getting
a warning from his sensible
governor who is ordering that all
such irredentist fanning the
embers of tribal war in his state
be arrested. What a governor, if only Emeka's governors aren't
cowards and follow the footsteps
of the Kaduna mallam, our unity
might not be as shaky as it is
right now.
. .
However, in my true life fiction, it
is Emeka one needs to pity the
most. Emeka who for once
haven't held his governors,
chairmen, senators, representatives and himself
responsible for the neglect in his
region. Emeka who thinks all
Igbos scattered worldwide hold
the same views as his and would
point fingers to all others in a constant self-absorbing manner
that selfishly belittles the pain and
neglect other regions suffer too.
Emeka would mostly act as if the
North and West don't have poor
people who have no hope. To imagine that it is this same Emeka
that statistics can prove a penny
of his money is not going into the
development of his region(unlike
Musa and Dapo who still
contribute a little to their regions) screaming the most for a break
up of his country is just too much
palm wine taken in excess.
.
.
Musa, Dapo and the strong headed Emeka need to come together and
truly see that the problem is not
themselves but those who have
selfishly enriched their pockets at
the detriment of their people
while posing as their leaders. If only they can stop the joke, stop
the comedy and the call to shed
innocent blood and go after those
who have held them in bondage
for decades, then they can have
true liberation for themselves as Nigerians and not as breakout
factions acting as puppets for the
same selfish greedy leaders using
religion and region to separate
them.
. .
Musa, Dapo and the ever
industrious Emeka, Oya give
yourselves brain today. No more
jokes, no more comedy. You can
unite to shame your common enemies. It is very possible, yes
it is doable for us to have a united
prosperous Nigeria that shall
respect the rights of every man.
My name is MICHAEL ILORI, and I
just want to make Nigerian sense . ________________oladapo micheal ilori |
