Many years ago, the
irrepressible Hausa leader who hailed from Kano and who was the founder of the
radical leftist political party called NEPU, Mallam Aminu Kano, said, ”Until
the Fulani Emirs are toppled northern Nigeria will not know peace”.
History has proved him right. The
feudal structure of the north and its deeply conservative ethos has resulted in
nothing but retrogression, poverty, disease, radical Islam, terror and killer
herdsmen.
Yet the problem goes much further
than the north: it extends to the whole of Nigeria. Worse still it has affected
the psyche of the Nigerian people and left them with a very low self-esteem.
We have become victims and
casualties of our modern history and little more than miserable serfs in a
Fulani-controlled artificial, man-made vassal state which deems non-Fulanis as
nothing more than the biblical “hewers of the wood” and “drawers of the water”.
In our very own eyes we are
nothing and in our hearts we believe that the Fulani are everything. We bow and
tremble before them, we jump when they sneeze or express their displeasure and
we smile and commend them when they commit all manner of abominable atrocities
and slaughter.
The bitter truth, which few wish
to hear and even fewer are prepared to acknowledge, is that the fundamental
problem of the Nigerian is that subconsciously he has accepted the erroneous
and false notion that he is a slave to the Fulani.
He has been robbed of his
identity, history and culture. He does not know where he is coming from or
where he is going.
He suffers from a grave,
crippling and debilitating inferiority complex which has robbed him of his
ability to think in a rational way or protest any act of injustice and
barbarity that he or she is subjected to by his Fulani slave-masters.
This applies to every Nigerian
both from the north and the south. The challenge of our time is to shatter that
notion, free their minds and break their chains in spite of their weakness and
their reluctance to fight for their own freedom.
For example look at a man like
General Yakubu Gowon our former Head of State. The Fulanis have been
slaughtering his Plateau people for years yet he cannot bring himself to
condemn them publicly.
Instead he says things like
“restructuring Nigeria is impossible” which is exactly what the slave masters
want to hear.
This is one of the most shameful
and retrogressive assertions in contemporary Nigerian history and sadly it
comes from a man who claims to pray.
Has Gowon forgotten that Bible
says “with God ALL things are possible?”
Again hear what Gowon had to say
about the cause of the Nigerian civil war 47 years after it ended.
He said Colonel Emeka
Odumegwu-Ojukwu, the leader of Biafra, caused the civil war by lying about what
transpired in Aburi. This is false. Ojukwu told no lie.
Gowon agreed to all the terms in
Aburi but when he got home he reneged on the agreement simply because the power
behind the throne and the de facto leader of Nigeria, a Fulani army officer by
the name of General Murtala Mohammed who led the July 29th 1966 northern
officers “revenge coup” and who put Gowon in power, said so.
Gowon’s concessions at Aburi were
unacceptable to the Fulani ruling class so the whole thing was thrown out of
the window. This is what led to the civil war.
Sadly the tales of woe and servility
do not stop there. Look at a man like Asiwaju Bola Ahmed Tinubu who has
suffered every form of insult and indignity over the last two years from the
Fulani CPC and President that he helped put into power in 2015.
He literally helped to enslave
his Yoruba people and fellow southerners and he consolidated and fortified the
relentless subjugation, bondage and humiliation that the people of the Middle
Belt have been subjected to by the Fulani for the last 100 years.
Yet despite that he now says he
still “has confidence in Buhari”. Poor him.
Does slavery and the selling of
one’s soul, heritage and kinsmen not have limits? Is there no pride and
dignity left?
Must some live on their knees and
lead others into servitude and perdition? By the time Buhari finishes with him
he will wish he had never been born!
By the time the Fulani finish
with Nigeria we will all be speaking Fufude and have a cow in our back yard.
Permit me to conclude this
contribution with perhaps the most graphic and appalling example of crawling
servility and protecting and serving the master’s agenda.
This was provided by none other
than Vice President Yemi Osinbajo who went to Lagos and told a gathering of
Christians that “nobody can Islamise Nigeria”.
That is exactly what the leaders
of Egypt and Turkey once said.They both used to be 99% Christian until they let
down their guard. Now they are both Muslim countries with tiny Christian
minorities that suffer untold hardship and persecution.
Leaders must LEARN from history
and STOP IGNORING it.
The truth is that Osinbajo
betrayed the Church by pairing with a man who HATES southerners and Christians
but because that man is a Fulani it did not matter to him.
He went on bended knee and served
his principal as if the man were God. And for him he was prepared to betray not
just his kinsmen and peiple but also his faith.
And the result is as follows:
under Buhari the head of EVERY military and security agency in our country
except for one is headed by a northern Muslim and every parastatal in the
energy sector is headed by a northerner.
Finally consider this: The D-8
countries are Bangladesh, Egypt, Indonesia, Iran, Malaysia, Nigeria, Pakistan
and Turkey. They all have one thing in common: ISLAM.
Osinbajo talks down on the
Christian Association of Nigeria (CAN) for raising the alarm of islamisation.
Nigeria is now a member of EVERY international Islamic organisation yet,
according to him, there is no islamisation agenda!
Are we to keep quiet until they
either pull down every Church or announce it officially? Somebody needs to talk
to the VP. He has forgotten why he was named the running mate to Buhari instead
of his mentor, Bola Tinubu.
He needs to study the book of
Esther before it is too late! May God deliver us from these slaves and their
relentless masters!
Such is the disgust that many
feel about the shameful behaviour and self-serving utterances of Vice President
Yemi Osinbajo that the President of CAN, Rev. Samson Ayokunle, was constrained
to warn him and advise him to educate himself and stop attempting to prove his
loyalty to Buhari by slamming Christians in the country.
Ayokunle has displayed courage
and fortitude by offering this timely admonition. Let us hope that Osinbajo
listens.
Permit me to conclude with the
words of President Abraham Lincoln. He said,
“to sin by silence when we should protest makes cowards out of men”.
“to sin by silence when we should protest makes cowards out of men”.
The Nigerian people have much to
learn from this great man’s insight and wise counsel. May God grant us courage
and faith.

Can someone mention one country on earth that was a Muslim country and Christians turned it to their country? If there is any, how did they do it? Through war or peacefully coexistence? Now who can name just a few countries that were predominantly Christians and are now Muslims nations. Turkey is one i have heard of and how did they conquer it. Peace or war?. Hmmm Islam is exactly the opposite of Peace. It is shameful to connect it with peace but yet ....????
