Must Read: THE THREE CARDINAL SINS OF GEN. GOWON AND WHY HE IS SILENT OVER FULANI HERDSMEN - Risingsuntv

Must Read:  THE THREE CARDINAL SINS OF GEN. GOWON AND WHY HE IS SILENT OVER FULANI HERDSMEN - Risingsuntv

Gen. Yakubu Gowon in 1967 thought he could invade Enugu,
arrest Ojukwu and place him on trial. A mission he could not
accomplish in 3 three years.


As soon as Gowon realized that Gen. Ojukwu and his boys
were not smiling or easy to conquer, Gowon committed 3
crimes against Nigerians just to win the war. These are the
sins of Gowon that are affecting Nigerians today.


1. THE GODOGODO

Gowon and his supreme military council thought it would be
easy to walk over Biafra and capture Ojukwu so they decided
to launch attack on Enugu to capture Ojukwu. That attempt
met with stiff resistance from unarmed youths to the
surprise of Gowon and his army.
Mauritala, that beast and a bigot in his zealousness made 2
attempts to take over Onitsha but was successfully stopped
by Ojukwu soldiers. This frustration led to a quick fix that
would lead to the worst pact with the devil himself.


In other to aid the federal army, Mauritala Mohammed
convinced Gowon to bring the foreign militias called the
godogodo people to fight Biafra. Those who lived or
witnessed and or fought in the civil war are not strange to
the atrocities of these people.
They were heartless militias paid to kill and praised for their
ruthlessness. Although the Godogodo people were not
trained professional regular soldiers, their duty was to do
the military’s dirty job.


Massacre civilians, rape and slaughter the already
conquered people with hatchet, axe and other dangerous
instruments. They are also experts in torture. Anywhere the
federal troop’s conquered, they will bring the godogodo
people to finish off the civilians.
So in some instances the civilians were warned to flee the
cities before the godogodo people would arrive. These
Godogodo people were not repatriated after the civil war.


Most of them settled in northern Nigeria. The government
lost control of them.
It is the same Godogodo militias that constitute today’s
Fulani herdsmen terrorist group. Those in the east who
witnessed the war will testify about the Godogodo people
named after a village in Kaduna of today.
So The Fulani herdsmen are the offshoot or the continuation
of the Godogodo people Gowon brought to Nigeria to kill
Biafrans. Today they have become the errant virus that eats
what it was supposed to protect.

2. Months into the war, Gowon saw that Biafra could not be
conquered unless Port Harcourt fell into federal hands, so
he went into pact with the president of Cameron. In the pact,
Gowon pledged Bakassi peninsula in exchange if Cameron
allowed Nigeria to use its sea route to get to Port Harcourt.


We are all aware of how many innocent people that died
since the war ended because of this pact. Today the entire
people of Bakassi are displaced and no one is talking about
them.


3. THE GRAZING ROUTE.

When Gowon and his military found out that Biafra is not a
pushover, he entered into another contract. This time he
went to Niger for the help of the Arabs in Africa. In other for
Chad and Niger to give the federal government the help they
sought, Niger and its allies, Benin republic and Chad Fulanis
stated their conditions.
That condition was to grant to the Fulani nomads a grazing
route from Niger to the Eastern Nigeria. Again Gowon
without brains accepted this demand and signed off the
arable land of Nigeria to the Fulanis for grazing.


Now if you have been listening or reading what the leaders
of Miyatti Allah have been saying you would notice one
constant claim. They insist that there is international
document that granted them grazing route from Niger to
Eastern Nigeria.


Of all those banning the open grazing, no one has
challenged this claim. Did such document exist? Who are
the signatories? Was it rectified after the war in which Gown
and the supreme military council was in charge for 6 years
after the war?


Now we can see why those who fought the civil war and
looted Nigeria thereafter are criminally silent over this
predicament. The Fulanis claim that Allah gave them our
ancestral land to graze. It is clear who the Allah is… Gen.
Yakubu Gowon is the Allah that gave our land to the Fulanis.
The fact staring us in the face now is that the federal
government cannot and will not protect us. Unless we resist
this as one robbed people these vampires will suck us dry.


They are brutes and experts in fiendish diplomacy, so
dialoguing with them or making any pact with them is a
waste of time. They understand one language, violence,
brute force, like the vampires if you do not overwhelm them
with brute force they will never stop coming.


Arise people of Nigeria and resist this slavery Gowon signed
us into. As for those who felt they defeated Biafra, how far?
As for those clamouring for true federalism or restructuring,
none will solve this problem. The only solution is to kill
Nigeria. Total disintegration will resolve this nonsense as
each nation will make its own laws and protect its territorial
integrity.

BREAKING NEWS - Obasanjo Insists Buhari’s Govt Has Failed - Risingsuntv

Former President Olusegun Obasanjo has again criticised the administration of President Muhammadu Buhari, maintaining that the government has failed.

The former president said this on Monday when he received members of the New Nigeria group at the Olusegun Obasanjo Presidential Library in Abeokuta, the Ogun State capital.

“The first lesson I learnt in my military training is never reinforce failure; what we have now is failure. Never you reinforce failure, let failure be failure,” he said.

The truth is this; when you have an ineffective and incompetent government, we are all victims and don’t let anybody deceive you. Those of you who are in business, your business could have been better today if we have a competent and effective and performing government.”

Nigeria Will Be Worse Than Somalia Soon -TY Danjuma's Re- Echoes Nnamdi Kanu's Prophecy -Risingsuntv

Nigeria will be worse than Somalia soon -
Danjuma re-echoes Nnamdi Kanu's prophecy.

Defend yourselves or you’ll all die
Nigerian Army is complicit in Fulani terrorism and facilitating their operation

"If you depend on the armed forces to
protect you, you will all die- one by one"

 —TY Danjuma
Former Nigerian Chief of Army Staff and Minister of Defence, Theophilus Yakubu Danjuma, has broken ranks
with his Fulani cohorts to warn Nigerians that war is imminent.

Danjuma, who assassinated the first Nigerian Head of State, Aguiyi Ironsi, yesterday, spat fire by calling on Nigerians to rise and defend themselves against attacks by marauding herdsmen in some parts of the country, or continue to suffer casualties.

Danjuma wh re-echoed a
prophecy of Nnamdi Kanu, the leader of the Indigenous People of Biafra, warned that Somalia will be better than
Nigeria if the ongoing ethnic cleansing is not stopped.

“You must rise to protect yourselves from these people; if you depend on the armed forces to protect you, you will all
die.

“I ask all of you to be on the alert and defend your country,
defend your state,” he admonished.

He said the unnecessary killings, which is akin to an act of ethnic cleansing being perpetuated against the people of
Taraba, specifically, and Nigeria, at large, must stop.

An obviously and visibly angry Danjuma also lampooned the
military authorities by slapping the institution with the
accusation that it is complicit in the violent incidents by providing protection for the killers.

“This ethnic cleansing must stop in Taraba, and it must stop in Nigeria. These killers have been protected by the
military; they cover them and you must be watchful to guide and protect yourselves because you have no other place to
go”.


Speaking at the maiden convocation ceremony of Taraba State University in Jalingo, the Taraba State capital, Danjuma, who received the award of honorary Doctor of Science from the University, lamented that in spite of the cultural diversity in the state, which was supposed to be used as a tool to bring unity among the people, there were armed bandits who come into the state to connive with the military to kill people and cause ethnic cleansing.


Danjuma said when he arrived at the arena of the convocation, he saw a diverse cultural display organised by
Taraba State cultural groups. This, he said, was proof- positive that the state represents Nigeria in all aspects, stressing that there was no need for the killings. The former
Chief of Army Staff then warned that “the ethnic cleansing must stop now otherwise Somalia will be a child’s play”.

General Danjuma’s outburst is coming against the backdrop
of recent violent attacks by killer herdsmen. In the first 10 weeks of 2018 alone, over 1351 people lost their lives ,
largely, as a result of violent killer herdsmen attacks.


Some of these activities have been described as pure criminality. Recall that President Muhammadu Buhari has
been very consistent in his call for peaceful co-existence in the country,m promising to resolve the crisis.

He made a pledge of N100 million to the appeal fund of the university.
While speaking, the visitor, Taraba State University and governor of Taraba State, Darius Ishaku, appreciated the
past governors of the state for initiating the state university.


He said his administration would continue to give priority to
education and the university for a better Taraba.

“The institution has made it possible for many Taraba residents to access tertiary education,” he said, and pledged
government’s support toward making it a model.

Earlier, Prof. Vincent Tenebe, the Vice Chancellor, had commended the state government for its continued support
which had ensured the growth of the university. Tenebe said that 5,900 students from five sets were graduating, and urged them to be good ambassadors of the institution.

Nnamdi Kanu: Court Overrules Federal Government Of Nigeria - Risingsuntv

Nnamdi Kanu: Court Overrules Federal Government Of Nigeria - Risingsuntv

March 28, 2018, A Federal High
Court Overruled The Federal Government On The Matter Of
Nnamdi Kanu, The Biafran Leader Who Has Been Missing Since September, 2017 When The Nigerian Army Carried
Out Lethal Operations At His Home At Umuahia In Abia
State.

Since Kanu’s Trial Resumed In October Last Year After
The Military Attack, Kanu Has Neither Be Seen Nor Heard
From.


Relying On Army’s Denials Of Holding Kanu, The Federal
Government Has Since Then Claimed That His
Nonappearance At His Trial Was Enough To Revoke His
Bail And Compel His Three Sureties To Forfeit Their
Bonds.


Conversely, The Lawyers To The Sureties Had
Consistently Advanced The Argument That The Issue Of
The Military Invasion Had To Be Considered First Before
The Issue Of Breach Of Bond Or Kanu’s Trial Can Ever
Arise. But Till This Last Hearing, Counsels Have Never
Had Sufficient Opportunity To Fully Present Their
Arguments.


On February 20, 2018 When The Matter Came Up For
Further Mention, Justice Binta Nyako Of Federal High
Court Abuja Agreed To Severe Kanu’s Case From That Of
His Co-defendants, Which Then Set The Stage For
Treating Kanu’s Case Separately And Perhaps Properly.
On March 28, When The Case Came Up For A Resumed
Hearing, The Attorney General Of The Federation Yet
Again Strongly Argued For Revocation Of Mazi Kanu’s
Bond And Issuance Of Bench Warrant Against Him.
The AGF, Who Was Represented By Bar.
Shuaibu Lanaran,
Further Argued That Kanu’s Sureties ‘did Not Deserve Any
Hearing On The Matter, But Must Produce Kanu Or Face
Sanctions’.


In Opposition, Counsels For The Three Sureties Jointly
Argued That A Forfeiture Proceeding First Requires An
“enrolled” Show Cause Order Before Any Issue Of
Revocation Or Bench Warrant Can Arise.

The Lawyers Told The Court That Their Clients Are Yet To
Be Served With Such Order And Thus The Matter Cannot
Be Said To Be Properly Before The Court. Counsels Cited
Pertinent Statutory And Judicial Authorities.


In A Counter-argument, The AGF Alleged That The
Lawyers Have “conspired” To Raise Technical Defenses
To The Matter, Whereupon The Court Immediately Took
Exception To The Remark And Ordered Labaran To
Apologize To The Lawyers, Which He Did Promptly And
Profusely.


In The End, Justice Nyako Agreed With The Submissions
Of The Lawyers For The Sureties And Ordered The AGF To
Properly And Timely Serve The Sureties With An Order To
Show Cause In Compliance With The Rules Of Procedure.


The Next Hearing Is Scheduled For June 26, 2018, When
Lawyers For The Sureties Will Have The First Opportunity
To Introduce Direct Evidence Of The Army Invasion Of
Kanu’s House, Which Has Been Said To Be The Proximate
Cause Of His Disappearance. If The Court Upholds Their
Argument, Nigerian Army May Be Cited For Contempt And
That Alone Is Likely To Affect The Course Of The Trial In
Kanu’s Favor.


It Will Be Recalled That Mazi Nnamdi Kanu Was Taken On
Bail Last Year On The Bond Of N100 Million Each Provided
By Senator Enyinnaya Abaribe, Jewish Rabbi Immanu El
Ben Madu And Tochukwu Uchendu, An Accountant.

The Sureties Were Represented In Court By Barristers Aloy
Ejimakor, Chukwuma Machukwu Umeh (SAN), And FC
Chude.

DAPCHI SCANDAL: SERGEANT BAKO DAVID NOT IN NIGERIAN ARMY? THINK AGAIN - RISINGSUNTV

DAPCHI SCANDAL: SERGEANT BAKO DAVID NOT IN NIGERIAN ARMY? THINK AGAIN - RISINGSUNTV
Remember the Nigerian Army statement concerning Sergeant Bako David, which reads.. ".there's nobody with the name Sergeant Bako David in the Nigerian Army" but I just wish to be clarified. Please, who is this dude with Nigerian Army uniform and Nigerian Army registered AK47, in a military check point, with other Army personnel and with the name tag "Bako D" AKA "Bako David"..?

The question May be rhetorical but if I can get an answer, it would be much appreciated.

Remember Sergeant Bako is the man that came out with a confession on social media that he is one among the soldiers who were paid to carry out DAPCHI SCHOOL GIRLS drama in order to convince the public that the present administration is working hard in terms of security. According to Bako, they were paid to kidnap the school girls and keep them safe for a period of time before bringing them back in the name of Boko Haram.

Recall that an army Sergeant named Bako David deserted the zoo army few weeks after the DAPCHI school girls kidnap drama which was masterminded by APC led administration and the Cabals in Aso Rock, few days later, the zoo army declared on newspaper and TV that the named sergeant was never a Nigerian soldier, but lo and behold, his images proving them wrong has just flooded the social media!

This damnable zoological contraption called Nigeria is really an evil enclave! Full of liars from the pit of hell, starting from the Presidency to the local government level, everyone in government office is a pathological liar, more especialy the Nigerian army, they never accept any responsibility for any atrocity they have committed even at the face of glaring evidence, they will still mount denial with impunity.

They mounted same denial when they attacked the family home of our Supreme leader Mazi Nnamdi Kanu and went back afterwards to loot his properties.

I think we must write to this effect to prove to the world that Nigerian army and government are pathological liars that must not be taken serious, it will still give us an edge over the case of our Supreme leader which they seemed to be running away from.

Below are the pictures of the deserted army Sergeant with Nigerian flag and his names boldly written on his badge.

Nnamdi Kanu/IPOB: 'African Commission moves against Buhari' - Risingsuntv

Nnamdi Kanu/IPOB: 'African Commission moves against Buhari' - Risingsuntv

(Dateline, Berlin, March 2018):

In a landmark ruling on March 8, 2018, the African
Commission on Human and Peoples Rights (ACHPR) issued
a ruling against President Buhari to cease and desist from
taking any "further actions" against Nnamdi Kanu, IPOB and
its members, pending when the Commission renders final
decision on a Complaint filed on behalf of Mazi Nnamdi
Kanu and IPOB.


The ruling, which the Commission called 'provisional
measures', emanated from a Complaint filed by Barrister
Aloy Ejimakor of Adulbert Legal Services on behalf of
Nnamdi Kanu and IPOB on December 14, 2017.

The Complaint placed three main issues for the
consideration of the Commission, to wit: Nnamdi Kanu's
trial, Operation Python Dance and its aftermaths in the
Southeast of Nigeria including the military invasion of
Nnamdi Kanu's family home in Umuahia, and declaration of
IPOB as a terrorist organization.


The African Commission on Human and Peoples' Rights,
which reports to the African Union (AU) is a quasi-judicial
body tasked with promoting and protecting human rights
and collective (peoples') rights throughout the African
continent as well as interpreting the African Charter on
Human and Peoples' Rights and adjudication of individual
complaints brought before the Commission against member
States.
Nigeria is a member State and has also ratified the African
Charter, which all together makes it subject to the
jurisdiction of ACHPR.

In the ruling, the Commission also states that it has
assumed jurisdiction to adjudicate the IPOB Complaint, and
gave President Buhari 15 days to respond with actions he
has taken to implement the provisional measures ordered by
the Commission.

On a rather ominous note, the Commission wrote that if the
allegations in the Complaint prove to be correct, they would
amount to gross violations of the African Charter "as well as
other regional and international human rights laws and
standards".


With this ruling and the expectation that Buhari is duty-
bound to implement it, Nnamdi Kanu, IPOB and it's
members have been vindicated, at least as far as the
declaration that IPOB is a terrorist organization now
appears to be on hold, until such a time the Commission has
rendered its final decision.

The ruling which spanned three pages was addressed to
President Buhari; and it is accompanied by another five
pages of document containing analysis of the Complaint.


Going forward, we remain committed in our pursuit of
justice both within and outside Nigeria. We will not relent
until those responsible for the murder of hundreds of
peaceful agitators and the disappearance of our leader is
held to account before the comity of civilised nations.


Signed:
Mazi Chika Edoziem
Head of Directorate of State of the Indigenous People of
Biafra

Must Read :The power of forgiveness - Risingsuntv

Must Read :The power of forgiveness - Risingsuntv


By Rev. Fr. John Damian Adizie, OCD
Our world is gradually becoming so aggressive. It is a
world where people believe that the only way to demon-
strate their power is through wickedness and vengeance.


A world where people are beginning to practice the
doctrine of eye for an eye and tooth for a tooth. Here in
Nigeria, it has gotten to a stage where men of God can
now attack themselves not just on the  pulpit but also in a
law court.

 A world where religious leaders are beginning
to take laws into their hands – all in the name of
vengeance. It is in a world like this that I want to remind
Christians, especially my fellow men of God, the essence
of our faith.

Our Lord Jesus Christ told his followers, “You have heard
that it was said, ‘You shall love your neighbor and hate
your enemy. But I say to you, Love your enemies and pray
for those who per-secute you. So that you may be sons
of your Father who is in heaven” (Matthew 5:43).
Forgive-ness is the only way we can prove to the world
that we are sons and daughters of the Most High God. To
sin is, in-deed, human but to for-give is divine.

While the world sees for-giveness as an act of weakness
our Lord Jesus Christ proved to the world that it is indeed
the most power-ful force. He did not overcome the world
with insults (as most men of God are doing nowadays).

He did not use military force. The only weapon He used
was the weapon of forgiveness. On the Cross of Calvary
He did what men could not do. He was the first man in
the history of humanity to forgive and even pray for his
executioners. Instead of cursing his execution-ers, he
prayed for them, saying, “Father, forgive them; for they
know not what they do” (Luke 23:34).


Certainly, this was not what his enemies were expecting
to hear. They were highly disappointed!
No wonder Mahatma Gandhi declares, “The weak can
never forgive. Forgiveness is the attri-bute of the strong.”
God demonstrates his might through forgive-ness. He
revealed his true identity to Moses in the following words:

“The Lord, the Lord, a God merciful and gracious, slow to
anger, and abounding in steadfast love and faithfulness…
forgiving iniquity and transgression and sin” (Exodus
34:6-7). Our God is so powerful that noth-ing and nobody
can easily provoke him. He is fully in control of His
feelings. He is indeed, slow to anger!


The spirit of unforgiveness has rendered so many people
stagnant. The truth, according to Steve Maraboli, is
“Unless you let go, unless you forgive yourself and the
situation, and unless you realize that the situation is over,
you cannot move forward.”


The more you hold someone on the ground the more you
remain on the ground. If you really want to move forward
and if you want to free yourself from bondage, then you
must be ready to forgive and let go.
Nothing is as poisonous as the spirit of unforgiveness.


That is why Nelson Mandela declared: “Resentment (and
Unforgiveness) is like drinking poison and then hoping it
will kill your enemies.” This is foolishness of the highest
order. Whenever you keep malice, the person may not
know that you are dying because of him or her. While he
enjoys his sleep you may end up having sleepless nights
because of him. Malice, resentment and unforgiveness
has destroyed so many people’s lives. They are the worst
form of poison in the world.


The Holy Father, Pope Francis, defines forgiveness as the
essence of Christianity. According to him, “To be a
Christian means being forgiving, kind, humble, gentle,
generous and merciful with one another.”
Forgiveness is peculiar to Christians.

Without forgiveness
there will be no Christianity and without Christianity there
will be no forgiveness. True Christians are known by their
humility and forgiveness. In fact, a Christian is
condemned to forgive. That why Jesus told Peter to
forgive seventy times seven times.

That is, uncountable times!
