On his part Mafindi Danburam gave a press conference in Jalingo, Taraba
state on Sunday 18th March in which he complained that 54 Fulani herdsmen,
who were all members of Miyetti Allah, had been arrested by the police and
that his Fulani people were being subjected to persecution by the security
agencies and indigenous political leaders in Taraba state simply because
they were Fulani herdsmen and members of Miyetti Allah.
If the herdsmen were not Fulani and members of Miyetti Allah I doubt he
would have bothered to say a word.
Not only was he arrogant and defiant but he also refused to express regret
or offer any apology for the slaughter of thousands of Jukuns and members
of the other local and indigenous ethnic groups that his Fulani kinsmen
and fellow cattle-rearers have slaughtered all over Taraba state in the
last few weeks, months and years.
Finally in his contribution, Garus Gololo said that his Fulani people and
members of his organisation Miyetti Allah in Benue were responsible for
the carnage and slaughter in the state and that they had unleashed the
terror because some of their cows were stolen and because the state had
passed an Anti-Grazing Law against their counsel and advice.
He warned that if that law was not scrapped that his Fulani people and
members of Miyetti Allah organisation in Benue state would organise
themselves for the second time and slaughter the people of Benue state yet
again.
These are the type of people and the sort of mindset that some useful
idiots are attempting to defend. And when these Fulani leaders not only
confirmed that the murderers and genocidal maniacs were their people but
aso attempted to rationalise and defend their shameless actions people
like Omokri, Momoh and all the other useful idiots and accursed slaves
remained silent because they had heard their masters voice.
It was only after Atiku Abubakar attempted to deceive Nigerians by weaving
the self-serving lie that the terrorist herdsmen are not Fulani and when
others, including yours truly, challenged him and told him to stop being
economical with the truth that they crawled out of their woodwok and
started complaining, whining and opening their big mouths.
They popped out of nowhere like the shameless cheerleders that they are
and, like clowns in a paupers’ circus, started spouting rubbish.
I can understand the attempt to deceive us about the true identity of the
terrorists coming from a Fulani like Atiku Abubakar who is clearly ashamed
of what his people are doing and who understands its implications for the
Fulani race and for his own presidential ambitions.
I cannot however understand, appreciate or abide such deceit coming from
non-Fulanis like Reno Omokri and Tony Momoh? This is made even worse given
the fact that the former claims to be a Pastor. It is shameful and it is
evil. Both of them are desperately trying to be more Fulani than the
Fulani themselves and the truth is that that they deserve to be pitied.
Did they not glean anything from the inspiring and courgeous words of
General T.Y. Danjuma. On March 24th he said,
“There is an attempt at ethnic cleansing in the state and of course some
rural areas in Nigeria. We must resist it. We must stop it. Everyone of us
must rise!”
He then said “The Armed Forces are not neutral. They collude with the
armed bandits that kill Nigerians! If you are depending on the Armed
Forces to stop the killings you will all die one by one. They will every
single one of us! The army facilitates their movements: they cover them!”
He went on to say,
“The ethnic cleansing must stop in Taraba and it must stop in all the
states of Nigeria otherwise Somalia will be a child’s play. I ask every
one of you to be alert and to defend your country”.
And finally he said “Defend your country, defend your territory, defend
your state! You wont have anywhere else to go!”
Can anyone dispute all that this great and courageous man has said? What
Christians and non-Fulani Muslims are suffering at the hands of the Fulani
in Nigeria today is similar to what the Jews suffered in Hitler’s Nazi
Germany.
Danjuma is one of the most powerful, fearless, consistent, reverred and
respected military officers in the history of our country and he has
finally spoken. What we are going to do about it is now left to the rest
of us.
We either stand up like lions and resist the evil in the land with all our
strength or we sit down, crawl, beg, hope against hope and die like
cowardly dogs with our tail between our legs!
The truth is that there is nothing that Danjuma has said that I and others
have not said before. Nnamdi Kanu said it as far back as 2014 and I said
it in 2015. Many insulted us, called us alarmists and laughed at us at the
time. They are not laughing anymore!
In the light of all this some questions need to be put to the useful
idiots in our midst and those questions are as follows:
Do we resist it and defend our land, territory and country by bending
over, touching our toes with our heads, putting our fingers on our
buttocks and spreading them wide open for the enemy to have his wicked
way? Is that how to rise up and resist?
Do we resist by capitulating and behaving like slavish cowards? Do we
resist by refusing to say who they are and where they come from and by
failing to let the world know their true identity, race and mission? I
think not.
And if any useful idiot and accursed slave is still in any doubt about
who the killers that are carrying out these horrendous acts and this
ethnic cleansing are and where they are from I challenge them to seek
private audience with General T.Y. Danjuma and ask him. He is a man of
wisdom and knowledge and there is very little that he does not know about
this matter.
Those that secretly and covertly support genocide, ethnic cleansing and
mass murder and that seek to hide the true racial identities of the
animals that indulge in such cruel barbarity deserve worse than curses.
They deserve to be hung, drawn and quartered.
And they have much to learn from the counsel of the great writer and
veteran journalist Mr. Simon Musa Reef who said,
“when you betray your people, you render yourself untrustworthy before the
very people you seek to impress”.
This is wisdom but sadly the useful idiots, blinded by their greed and
their lust for favour, power, money and fleeting fame from their Fulani
masters will not heed it.
They should visualise and imagine the killer herdsmen visiting their homes
and as they are doing “one corner” with their wives, slitting open the
throats of their daughters, sodomising their sons and hacking off the body
parts and vital organs of members of their household they should ask them
in Fufude whether they are Fulani or whether they are Chinese.
The fact of the matter is that these Fulani terrorists have slaughtered
hundreds of thousands of innocent and defenceless people all over the
country over the last three years and these imbeciles and shameless fools
are still trying to defend them, rationalise their actions, hide their
identities and cover their tracks?
And they call themselves Christians? They are not Christians but slaves
and “useful idiots” to the Fulani terrorists.
Worse still I suspect that they are under a spell. If Fulani herdsmen
rape their mother in their prescence, slit open her throat, drain all her
blood in the gutter and gut her with a 12 inch Bowie knife before their
very eyes they will simply say “thank you sir” and still defend them. That
is how depraved, debased and self-hating these misguided creatures are.
On March 22nd, one day after the return of the Dapchi girls and in
reference to the biggest, most repugnant, most nauseating, most
stomach-wrenching, most repulsive, most cowardly and most chicken-hearted
turncoats and useful idiots in the nation, I tweeted the following:
“Vice President Yemi Osinbajo and all the other useful idiots and accursed
slaves have much to learn from a deeply courageous 15 year old Christian
girl from Dapchi by the name of Liya Sharibu about what it means to be
loyal to your faith and to be faithful to your God even in the face of
death!”
I believe that each and every one of the useful idiots and accursed slaves
that I have mentioned in this essay and all those that think like them,
including that fat, ugly, frog-like, pamper-wearing polyglot from Imo
state, that poisonous little midget and bearded dwarf from Anambra and
that corrupt, lying, pot-bellied, mentally-unstable eyeball-rolling creek
Haramite from Rivers, also need to learn the same lesson.
God will surely judge them for betraying their faith, for supporting the
evil, for attempting to deceive the Nigerian people and for defending the
indefensible.
Every drop of innocent blood that the Fulani terrorists have shed over the
last three years will not only speak against the physical perpertrators of
the crime but will also speak against accomplices like them too.
We live in perilious times and we are in a dire situation. Yet regardless
of the dangers we owe it to the people that we love to stand up for what
we believe in.
Our saving grace is that for every foolish southern and Middle Belt slave
and useful idiot there are hundreds of thousands of clear-thinking,
courageous, sensible, rational and inspiring ones that know the score,
that are servants of truth, that are prepared to call a spade a spade,
that speak truth to power, that are blessed with a brave heart, that are
imbued with an excellent spirit and that are as constant as the northern
star.
Nnamdi Kanu, Asari Dokubo, Gani Adams, Charles Ogbue, Government
Ekpemupolo (AKA Tompolo), Bosun Emmanuel, Aniko Briggs, Ayo Fayose, Tony
Nnandi, Matthew Hassan Kukah, Musa Asake, David Oyedepo, Paul Enenche,
Johnson Suleiman, Isa El Buba, T.B. Joshua, Solomon Musa, Daniel Wilson,
Chukwuemeka Ezeife, Tony Nyiam, Ayo Adebanjo, Ben Nwabueze, Pastor Chris
Okafor and so many others are worthy of mention in this respect.
As an example permit me to share the words of my friend and brother Nnamdi
Kanu which he spoke in February 2014 and which have proved to be
prophetic.
He said,
As they campaign vigorously for elections you would think they are
coming to grow the economy, enthrone justice, breed unity and tolerance
and love for one another. No! They are coming to enthrone Hausa/Fulani
supremacy, to reposition the security agencies by sacking all competent
hands and replace them with their kinsmen in order to drive their ethnic
domination of the south. The Fulani herdsmen will be armed and encouraged
to slaughter us with impurity and their masters will protect them. They
are coming to ensure that my people are enslaved forever. Those who do not
believe me will soon see it happen before their eyes. The Fulani will take
over the entire south as a continuation of their age-long agenda to
Islamise Eastern Nigeria. They will brazenly seize our land in pretence of
creating grazing fields for the Fulani. Then the conquest will be
complete and we will become their serfs forever.
This hideous and unholy agenda is unfolding before our very eyes but many
of our people are still in denial because the bitter truth is too
difficult to grasp and too frightful to admit, accept or comprehend. (TO
BE CONTINUED).
