—–“Not a single soul has been prosecuted, let alone jailed for the genocide
\nin Southern Kaduna and you are blaming someone for preaching self defense?
\nYou are INSANE. Yes, INSANE”- Olufemi Korode, Twitter, 24th January 2017.<\/p>\n
Can anyone dispute the fact that Mr. Korode is right? Are those that say
\nthat Christians should not defend themselves or complain when they are
\nbeing slaughtered not completely insane?<\/p>\n
The truth is that had it not been for the fact that eight more innocent
\nand defenceless people were butchered by Fulani militants in Samaru Kataf,
\nSouthern Kaduna on 17th January, that six young students of the College of
\nEducation, Gidan Waya, Southern Kaduna were massacred on 23rd January and
\nthat twenty innocent souls, including women and children, were slaughtered
\nby the same pack of beastly savages in the village of Ohimini in Benue
\nstate on that same day I may not have written this piece.<\/p>\n
Yet I am constrained to do so because the animals in human flesh and
\nIslamist demons that are on the rampage in Kaduna state and indeed all
\nover the country have not satisfied their lust for Christian blood and
\ntheir carnage persists. As a matter of fact the cancer is spreading.<\/p>\n
When you add the thirty four that were murdered in the last few days to
\nthe 808 innocent souls that were killed by the same creatures on Christmas
\neve and Christmas day you cannot come to any other conclusion than the
\nfact that this is genocide and that it is time to resist it.<\/p>\n
Unfortunately some do not wish to hear that. They would prefer the people
\nof Southern Kaduna to continue to be the sacrificial lambs that they have
\nalways been. Permit me to share just one example of their mindset here.<\/p>\n
In reaction to the suggestion that the people of Southern Kaduna ought to
\ndefend themselves from mass murder and genocide given the fact that the
\nstate government has refused to protect them, Mallam Uba Sani, a four foot
\ndwarf and the political advisor to Kaduna state’s dimunitive
\nMidget-in-Chief, Governor Nasir El Rufai, wrote the following in Thisday
\nand a number of other newspapers:<\/p>\n
”The greatest challenge to peace in Kaduna State now is the antics of
\npolitical jobbers and opportunists who have gone as low as spreading hate
\nspeeches; telling communities in Kaduna State to \u201cdefend themselves.\u201d
\nThis, of course, is an unmistakable call on the people of Kaduna State to
\nprocure arms and ammunitions and start killing themselves. This is not
\njust very low but extremely dangerous. This call on the citizenry to take
\nthe laws into their own hands totally undermines all on-going efforts to
\nachieve lasting peace in Kaduna State.”<\/p>\n
These are strong words from the dwarf who appears to be expressing the
\nfrustration, angst and cold rage of his employer, the Chief Midget.<\/p>\n
Instead of showing remorse for their woeful failures and begging for
\nforgiveness for the oceans of innocent blood that has been shed under
\ntheir watch, the government of Kaduna State is lashing out at those of us
\nthat have called them out and that are deeply concerned about the
\nannihilation and decimation of human life and sheer carnage that is taking
\nplace in Southern Kaduna.<\/p>\n
The dwarf pours scorn on the suggestion that a man should protect his
\nfamily, loved ones and home from cold-blooded murderers who are attempting
\nto maim and kill them.<\/p>\n
He is suggesting that the people of Southern Kaduna should keep quiet,
\nfold their arms and happily welcome, with a warm smile, those that have
\ncome to rape their wives, slaughter their children, burn their homes, wipe
\nout their faith and possess their land. Is that how to make Kaduna great
\nagain?<\/p>\n
Is that how to get back to the glorious days of Abubakar ‘Dangiwa’ Umar,
\nAhmed Makarfi and Patrick Yakowa when Kaduna state was presided over by
\nmen of substance and character.<\/p>\n
Is that the way to get back to the days when Kaduna state was blessed with
\nkind and compassiomate governors who were balanced, mature, sensitive,
\ncaring, gentle, cosmopolitan, inclusive and fair to all regardless of
\nfaith, tribe or ethnic nationality?<\/p>\n
Is that how to get back to the peaceful days of Kaduna when those of us
\nthat play polo used to look forward to going there to play a few chukkas
\nat the annual Kaduna Polo tournament?<\/p>\n
Is that how to get back to the days when Kaduna was one of the best places
\nto live in or visit in the country?<\/p>\n
I doubt it very much. The truth is that nothing could be more insensitive,
\nirresponsible, callous and utterly absurd than the dwarf’s counsel and
\nsuggestion.<\/p>\n
If that is the kind of advice that the midget has been getting from his
\naides and advisors ever since he was elected as governor one needs to look
\nno further to know why he has failed so woefully.<\/p>\n
Under his watch Kaduna state has become more divided than it has ever been
\nin its entire history and the pungent smell and rotten stench of fresh
\nhuman blood and fly-infested bloated corpses fills the air.<\/p>\n
That is the shameful legacy that the midget and his dwarf are desperately
\ntrying to white-wash and defend.<\/p>\n
Instead of going on their knees and begging God, the Christian community,
\nthe Shiite Muslims and the Nigerian people for forgiveness for what can,
\nat best, be described as their irresponsible, incompetent and criminally
\nnegligent behaviour and, at worse, their willfull and premeditated attempt
\nto wipe out, exterminate and cleanse the land of the entire Christian
\ncommunity and every ethnic and religious minority group in Southern Kaduna
\nand Zaria, they are throwing bricks at their perceived enemies and flying
\ninto childish tantrums.<\/p>\n
The dwarf spoke of “political jobbers” and “oppprtunists”. One wonders
\njust who they are? Again one wonders precisely what the “ongoing efforts
\nto achieve lasting peace in Kaduna” that he mentioned are given the fact
\nthat his boss the midget does not appear to give a damn about the fact
\nthat thousands of innocent and defenceless people, including women and
\nchildren, have been butchered during his watch and right under his nose.<\/p>\n
At the end of 2015 over 1000 Shiite Muslims were slaughtered in cold blood
\nand buried in mass graves by the Nigerian Army in Zaria, Kaduna state.
\nMany Shiites have accused the midget of covertly playing a sordid and
\nquestionable role in the whole affair and when one hears the facts one
\ncannot blame them.<\/p>\n
For example is it true that it was he that fingered Sheik Ibrahim El Zak
\nZaky, the Shiite leader, by phoning him and ascertaining his whereabouts
\nfor the military before they tracked him down, shelled, shot and murdered
\nhundreds of his people in the sanctity of their homes and proceeded to
\nshoot him and his gentle Yoruba wife in the eye and stomach before
\nwhisking them both away.<\/p>\n
Since that time they have kept both husband and wife incommunicado and in
\ndetention despite court orders to release them. One wonders what efforts
\nthe midget has made to get them out?<\/p>\n
One wonders why he, a Sunni Muslim, hates the Shiite so much? One wonders
\nwhy he has been tormenting, arresting, persecuting, outlawing, proscribing
\nand locking them up ever since their leaders arrest even though they have
\nnever sought to harm or attack anyone?<\/p>\n
Another example of the sheer depravity of this man was provided
\napproximately one month ago over the Christmas holiday.<\/p>\n
On Christmas eve and Christmas day alone, according to the Christian
\nAssociation of Nigeria (CAN), no less that 808 Christians were killed by
\nthe midget’s friends and brothers, the Fulani militia (aka herdsmen), in
\nSouthern Kaduna.<\/p>\n
The midget and his government provided security and enforced a curfew in
\nthe Muslim areas of the state but they refused to do the same for Southern
\nKaduna which is Christian. Consequently the Fulani militia not only struck
\nbut they struck very hard indeed leaving nothing but death and destruction
\nin their path.<\/p>\n
Evidently the Chief Midget and his government are more interested in
\ninsulting, undermining, discrediting and threatening with arrest its
\ncritics and those that have expressed outrage about what the people of
\nSouthern Kaduna have been subjected to under his watch than in protecting
\nand saving innocent Christian lives.<\/p>\n
One wonders why he hates Christians so much to the extent that the only
\nhospital in the relevant Christian community was shut down by his
\ngovernment on the days that the attacks took place in order to ensure that
\nthe wounded could not be treated and that as many\u00a0 Christians suffered
\ncasualties and died as possible.<\/p>\n
Is the midget not vicariously liable and criminally culpable for those
\ndeaths even if he did not take part in the attacks himself? What is the
\nsource of and reason for his hatred for our Christian brothers and
\nsisters? Are they not human beings as well? Are they not worthy of life?
\nDo they not deserve to be protected?<\/p>\n
These questions must be answered whether they like it or not. Yet instead
\nof doing so they are spewing out more and more garbage by the day.<\/p>\n
For example in his essay the midget’s dwarf went even further by saying
\nthat “a Yoruba ex- Minister who should know better” and who is “being
\nsponsored” held a series of meetings in his Abuja home with various
\ndelegations from Southern Kaduna where they planned how to effect “a
\nviolent attack on others” in Kaduna state.<\/p>\n
Though he did not have the courage to mention the name of that Yoruba
\nex-Minister it is obvious that the dwarf was referring to yours truly.<\/p>\n
As a rule I do not respond to hired help and the aides of public office
\nholders no matter how short they are because they are too small for me.
\nThis is especially so when they are stunted not just in physical growth
\nbut also in mental capacity.<\/p>\n
When the midget himself dares to open his mouth and talk rubbish I will
\ngive him the full measure of my pen and tongue but I cannot bring myself
\nto the very low level of joining issues with a frustrated dwarf or any of
\nthe other hired guns of an embittered and drowning midget.<\/p>\n
What I will say to the dwarf however is this. If it was me that he was
\naccusing of having meetings in my Abuja home with various delegations from
\nSouthern Kaduna he is absolutely right.<\/p>\n
I have many friends in and from Southern Kaduna from both the Shiite
\nMuslim and Christian community who deemed it necessary to pay me a visit
\nin Abuja over the Christmas holidays and tell me about the genocide that
\nthey were being subjected to by the Fulani Janjaweed terrorists and
\nmilitary forces, with the full support and knowledge of the
\nmidget-in-chief.<\/p>\n
I was proud to host them and I will continue to do so whether the little
\ndwarf and his paymaster likes it or not.<\/p>\n
I should also mention the fact that at no time did I discuss any violent
\nattack on the Fulani or anyone else in Kaduna state with any of them
\nthough I told them plainly that if the government failed in its duty to
\nprotect them they must go ahead and defend themselves.<\/p>\n
That is my view and it will always be my view and I will continue to share
\nit with whoever I deem fit.<\/p>\n
For this counsel I have no apology. If it gives the midget governnor and
\nhis little dwarf sleepless nights that the people of Southern Kaduna will
\nno longer sit back and allow their loved ones to be slaughtered by their
\nFulani friends and kinsmen that is their problem. For all I care they can
\ngo and hug a transformer or jump in the lagoon. (TO BE CONTINUED).<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
