Gov. Fayose Poses Some Questions To President Buhari, That Need Answers - Over Plateau Killings.

Posted: 27 Jun 2018 01:51 PM PDT

Mr. Ayodele Fayose, Ekiti State Governor, has slammed President Muhammadu Buhari for not arresting Miyetti Allah Cattle Breeders Association of Nigeria, MACBAN, North Central zone Chairman, Danladi Ciroma, after his claim that the killing of the 86 persons was in retaliation to the alleged death of 300 cows in the last few weeks by the affected villagers.

It could be recalled in our earlier report that Danladi Ciroma, was quoted to have said that; "These attacks are retaliatory. As much as I don't support the killing of human being, the truth must be told that those who carried out the attacks must be on revenge mission.

"There have been recent reports of cow rustling and destruction of farms between Berom farmers and Fulani herdsmen. The people carrying out these criminal activities are well known to the communities but the communities are hiding them."

However, reacting to the statement, Fayose on Twitter urged Buhari to deal with the 'perpetrators of the evil act as terrorists.'

He said, "One question Nigerians should be asking President Buhari is; has anyone been arrested for the killing of over 200 people in Plateau?

"200 people killed in one day by people said to be retaliating loss of cows is a national disaster that should attract decisive actions not speeches.

"In saner climes, Presidents don't go to sleep when over 200 of their citizens, including children are murdered,they take decisive actions to bring perpetrators to book and prevent reoccurrence. But here in Nigeria, our president sees killing of over 200 people as two fighting.

"President Buhari, killings by herdsmen is not Farmers/Herdsmen clash. It is not a case of two fighting. Rather, it is terrorism. Deal with perpetrators as terrorists and you will see these senseless killings coming to an end."

"Perpetrators must be arrested" APC declares over Plateau Killings

Posted: 27 Jun 2018 08:42 AM PDT

The ruling All Progressives Congress (APC) has called on the security agencies to arrest the perpetrators of the attack that claimed over 100 lives in Plateau State over the weekend.

Mr. Bolaji Abdullahi, the National Publicity Secretary, of the party made this demand in a statement made available to the press, today June 27th.

"We call on security agencies to spare no efforts in ensuring the arrest and prosecution of the perpetrators and in stemming the occurrence of such violence in all parts of the country," the statement said.

See the full statement below:

The All Progressives Congress (APC) commiserates with the government and people of Plateau State over Saturday's gruesome killings in Barkin-Ladi and Riyom local government areas of the state.

Nothing can justify such descent to barbarism, bestiality and cruelty to a fellow man as witnessed with the gruesome killings.

While we grieve over the dead and commiserate with families and friends who have lost loved ones, we appeal to religious and community leaders to demonstrate true leadership even in the face of this terrible challenge, by appealing to those affected not to take the laws into their hands and avoid utterances and actions that can provoke reprisal.

We are confident that President Muhammadu Buhari's prompt visit to Plateau State will help in providing some succour to the affected and reassuring everyone of Mr. President's commitments to tackling the security situation in the country.

We also once again call on security agencies to spare no efforts in ensuring the arrest and prosecution of the perpetrators and in stemming the occurrence of such violence in all parts of the country.

Lady Reveals How Her ATM Card Was Almost Cloned At A Petrol Station In Lagos.

Posted: 27 Jun 2018 05:44 AM PDT

A lady has recently revealed how she escaped the claws of fraudsters, as she disclosed that her ATM Card was almost cloned at a Forte Oil Petrol Station, Ikoyi, off Alfred Rewane.

She disclosed that she wanted to buy petrol at the station and paid with her ATM Card. The transaction was approved and the attendant instead of returning her card to her, turned off the POS machine as the receipt was coming out.

See her post via Instagram below:

The Lady further revealed that the attendant instead of dispensing the value of N10,000 fuel paid for, left the pump stand into their office and came back without the POS nor her ATM card.

She protested, left the monitoring of the dispensing to her friend in her car and dashed into the office, only to observe the shock on their faces as soon as they saw her, as they were already making photocopies of her card.

A Communique Of Afenifere General Assembly, 26 June 2018

Posted: 27 Jun 2018 04:23 AM PDT

The Afenifere General Assembly held yesterday, 26th June, 2018 ended and a Communique was issued:

Read below full text of the Communique below:

*Communique of Afenifere General Assembly, 26 June 2018*

The General Assembly of Afenifere met at the Akure home of the Leader, Chief R.F Fasoranti. today.

After exhaustive deliberations on the state of the Nation ,the following communique was adopted:

1, Plateau Genocide and President Buhari's conflict of Interest: Meeting was devastated by the genocide that took place in Plateau State on Sunday in which over 200 deaths occurred by eyewitnesses accounts deaths but the police admitted 100.These wanton killings and official irresponsibility portrays Nigeria as a barbaric entity and we YORUBA PEOPLE are pained living in the same space with the bestial elements who kill innocent people in cruel manner.The images of little children killed mercilessly with open skulls make anyone with human blood flowing in his or her veins to shrink.

We are further distressed that the response of President Buhari to the murder of hundreds of our citizens did not attract a word of sympathy or regret .

It is very infuriating that the President's response and that of Miyetti Allah appeared to have been authored from the same laptop.The Chairman of North Central zone of Miyetti Allah ,Danladi Ciroma said the attacks were a retaliation for the loss of three hundred cows.Said he "These attacks are retaliatory ....Those who carried out the attacks must be on revenge mission ...Fulani herdsmen have lost over 300 cows in the last few weeks.....Since these cows were not found ,no one should expect peace in the areas."

President Buhari who is also the Grand Patron of Miyetti Allah who described the Fulani herdsmen terror as "herdsmen/farmers" clashes "(a case of two fighting but dead bodies only on one side) also repeated the missing cows and even added another charge Miyetti Allah did not remember "According to information available to the Presidency about one hundred cattle had been rustled by a community in Plateau State,AND SOME HERDSMEN WEREa KILLED IN THE PROCESS.The state governor,Simon Lalong had had invited the aggrieved groups and pleaded against further action ...Less than forty eight hours later violence broke out (an euphemism for the word "retaliation" used by Miyetti Allah Chief .

The President used the word "thugs" thrice to describe protesting residents while admitting that human life was becoming "increasingly cheap " under his watch without saying what he is doing to make it worthy or bring the herdsmen who have admitted killing people to book .He also repeated the blame game of "desperate people " causing instability and chaos" in furtherance of the vain attempt by the administration to divert attention from Fulani herdsmen responsible for the serial murders.

Three months ago,we did say that the President is afflicted by conflict of interests as Grand Patron of Miyetti Allah and the President of the Federal Republic of Nigeria .It is the affliction that has seen him now functioning as a Miiyetti Allah godfather at a time he should be presidential .We asked him and we are calling on him to make a choice between the two.

It is pointless at this stage making any demand on this incorrigible administration .We ask our people to have special prayers for the souls of all those killed and for God to have mercy on Nigeria in all our mosques on Friday 29th June in our churches on Sunday 1st of July ,and for Him to see us through the last few months of this administration .
Politically, Nigerians must now gird their loins and see the democratic uprooting of this administration as a task that must be done in 2019 so as to save the the country from utter destruction .There is no land where the blood of the innocent is being shed daily like Nigeria that can make progress in any area of human endeavor. ENOUGH IS ENOUGH!
2, RESTRUCTURING IS A NATIONAL AGENDA
At a time when the country as at the verge of collapse as a result of structural defects ,we noted that the President while receiving Urhobo leaders on Monday was still da missed the popular call for restructuring of the country when he said "Every group asking for restructuring has got their own agenda and I hope it can be accommodated by the constitution "
We say without any reservation to Mr President that the call for restructuring is a selfless call borne out of the need to retrieve Nigeria from the brink of collapse and put It back on track .If the President talks about people with personal agenda on restructuring ,it. Can only be those who insert it in their manifestos to win elections and turn around to say they are getting different definitions of restructuring after they came to power .
We insist that for the country to move forward and develop ,it has to be restructured into a proper federation .

3, NO PUBLIC FUNDED RANCHES IN YORUBALAND
Meeting rejects the idea of public funded ranches which is an imperialist agenda of cresting Federal Cattle Territories across Nigeria .We insist that Cattle rearing is a private business and the Government has no business getting involved if there was no sinister .No inch of YORUBALAND will be available for such and no Governor should cede any land for such.

Oby Ezekwesili Manhandled By Presidential Security Operatives During Plateau Killings Protest In Abuja(Video)

Posted: 27 Jun 2018 04:01 AM PDT

Yesterday Mrs. Oby Ezekwesili, former Minister of Education embarked in a solo protest in Abuja to lend her voice against the killings in the country and demanded accountability.

According to PoliticsNGR, a group of security operatives attached to the Presidential Villa Gate in Abuja on Tuesday harassed and manhandled her.

The protest was brought to a halt at the Presidential villa gate when the security operatives stationed around the gate manhandled her while struggling to retrieve her placard from her. The attempt, which was vehemently resisted by the Minister, led to commotion as the Police kept dragging her.

PoliticsNGR added that even Journalists covering the melee were not spared, as their phones and cameras were seized by the security operatives.

Speaking during the protest, Ezekweili said;

"I am addressing my message to you as the President and C-in-C of Nigeria. I am addressing my DEMANDS to you as that one individual bestowed with the powers of centralized command and control of our security institutions and personnel to enforce the provisions of Section 14 subsection 2b of the Nigerian Constitution (As amended) which states that 'the welfare and security of the citizens shall be the primary purpose of the government,"

Six of the 12 demands she highlighted in her message to the President are:

(1) Putting an end to the endless killings by herdsmen going on in the country

(2) Revealing the identity of the perpetrators of these wanton killings in Benue, Taraba, Kaduna, Zamfara, Plateau, Nasarawa and Kogi states etc

(3) Justice for the victims of violent killings across the country and secure the living in all parts of the country

(4) Ending the ineffectiveness of the security establishment

(5) Ending your loyalty to the Service Chiefs

(6) Stopping the blame game and confusing statements on the killings of the citizens.
