saaron:
The question I ask is, Was FFK referring to Boko haram at that time or fulani herdsmen? You BMC crew are trying to use FFK's article on Libyan conflict and boko haram connection to suit your narrative with the killings currently going on in Nigeria.
What is intellectually more lazy than blaming foreigners for your problems? Is it no longer Anti Open grazing law?

Rada rada there is NOTHING like Killer Fulani herdsmen, what we have are CRIMINALS masquerading as herdsmen.
The killings in Offa is NOW being called terrorist attack, but they came in like armed robbers.
ONLY the truth shall set us free, bunch of THIEVING LIARS.

Sometimes, I wonder if you people are actually daft or just plain stupid. Are you this dull and dumb not to know the difference between the two statements? FFK was correct cos the problem with Libya was covert arming of rebels by the US to fight against Gaddafi and the moment he was killed,all the different militia factions that had been outlawed by Gaddafi when he was alive,started fighting for the control of various territories in Libya.

The statement by Buhari, is that it is the militias that Gaddafi trained and that left Libya after the fall of Gaddafi, that are perpetuating havoc. This is absolute nonsense. Libya had a standing military under Gaddafi and there was nothing like militia groups fighting, under his reign.

Those two quotes you put up there,are totally different in meaning.

Really....did u read with the butt hole or the back of your head....this is FFK.

his Taureg friends and allies in north Africa would not have been inspired and driven to take over northern Mali and create a Taliban-style Islamic fundamentalist state there and northern Nigeria would not have been flooded with jihadist foot-soldiers and all manner of sophisticated arms and bombing devices for usage by Boko Haram

You are another elephant white project....

Same Buhari/FG said we should accommodate our country men, There didn't proscribe them,El rufai even paid them.
Youths say the truth.
Leave this politicians just say the truth


While FFK was giving reasons why Obama should not be trusted before the 2012 presidential elections in the united states, here are some of the reasons he gave.

This article is coming on the backlash, twist and misrepresentations to Mr President's speech in London.

Unfortunately, I can not but agree with Femi Adesina on the fact that, there is a lot of intellectual laziness going on in the Federal Republic of Social Media and unfortunately, people who one will think are intellectually sound or at least averagely sound now buy into pettiness going on the social media are actually falling into the trap. I am referring to serving senators, a sitting governor,a former minister who had once made the same assertion. It is really unfortunate.

When Libyan Isis was experiencing heavy bombardment from US and her allies, BokoHaram openly pledged allegiance to ISIL thus receiving logistics and weapon support from them.Isil was also being pushed at the time out of Libyan territories and were forced to moved to nations with more porous borders like Nigeria, Niger and Mali this part explains what ffk was saying.There was a time Nigerian Army personnel were being attacked with AA guns and other sophisticated weapons which prior wasn't available to BH.
Now even though there's been a lot of proliferation of light arms around The middle east, North Africa and west Africa it will be incorrect to blame Gaddafi Era uprising for the mayhem currently being caused by fulani herds men. This is because the fulani herds men has always been allowed by Nigerian security officials to go about herding with AKs(why they have allowed this is story for another day). Now due to global warming the herders are pushing inland more and clashing dangerously with farming communities.Since they haven't been openly condemned or proactively tackled by the government they now have the "we will kill and nothing will happen" mentality leading to increased cruelty in their actions.
However if the government is insisting on blaming foreigners for this fulani herdsmen issue, then they should also treat them as foreign aggressors/terrorists and not advocating for cattle colony as that will be putting communities under siege by foreign terrorists.

You're the one who is a white elephant project. I know very much how the Libyan crisis started and I am making an undisputable claim that under Gaddafi, Libya had a standing national army and all forms of militias were outlawed. That is a fact! Fact no 2,is that after the death of Gaddafi, different militia factions were in control of different parts of Libya. These militias were not functional under Gaddafi,and cannot be said to be the gunmen trained by Gaddafi and are causing problem in Nigeria. Buhari made a blunder with that statement. What he should have said,was that some of the militias who fought in Libya after the death of Gaddafi, are the ones smuggling arms and fighting here. Militia groups that arose after the death of Gaddafi, can't be labelled as militia groups trained by Gaddafi. Use your brain and think. You're not a small child and I believe you know how prosperous and peaceful Libya was, when Gaddafi was alive.

Unfortunately, the president has no single filling station even the youths have no single litre of petrol at home.

Lol. You are one of the people i spoke about in my comment ....juxtaposing words and adding one or 2 things they know together wrongly to argue blindly like a beer palor gist. U keep deflecting from the reality and the truth on ground. First the title of thread says blamed Ghadaffi's death and not Ghadaffi himself. His death caused problems in North Africa which u yourself attest to. Many of the arms used by rebels and the also Ghadaffi's men are everywhere in North Africa. This thread is not about who killed Ghadaffi or if he was murdered in cold blood, the thread is about FFk admitting that there was influx if armed militias and also sophisticated arms after the death of Ghadaffi same position Mr President is asserting...

So what exactly is your argument?

You still haven't explained how Buhari has failed on Boko haram and keep flipflopping on the Fulani herdsmen attacks.

If FFK made that statement in 2012 just a year after ghadafi was killed, he was accurate. For Buhari to make same statement in 2018 after 7 years is a laughable excuse for failure.

Niger republic which has direct borders with Libya does not have armed herdsmen on a killing spree.

The worst intellectual laziness is using the worst the US has to offer as the standard for excellence in Nigeria. How about Nigeria setting the pace and teaching the US how to protect their borders?

The US has gone to the moon.
The US provides 24 hours electricity to her citizens.
The US has well paved road.
The US has piped water running in every home.
etc.

Since you like us imitating the US; why are we not doing all these other things because the US is doing them? Must we always compare ourselves with the worst?

The illegal immigrants crossing the US don't carry AK47's, running around in troops in pick up vans, kidnapping, killing US farmers, otherwise, it would have been declared a war situation with Mexico.
