“My number one reason is that there is no reason for me not to defend Nigeria so passionately. My other answer for that love for Nigeria is that my umbilical cord was buried in Nigeria and nowhere in the world, and there is just no reason why I should not love Nigeria so very strongly until the Day of the Lord.”

“The Fulbes cannot lay claim to any civilization as far as the whole of geo-north is concerned. The Fulbes are a wandering tribe whose ancestors came from the East (Mecca) to settle down at Futa Toro or Futa Jallon, therefrom came with violence to the Hausa kingdom, and settled down amongst them and their neighbours. Having no land anywhere on the planet earth to call their own, being a wandering tribe, their survival strategies have always been to resort to stealing, killing, maiming, destroying, zangoism/ruga or cowism (creating cattle colonie/settlements and later establishing emirates), and subsequently disinheriting the indigenous peoples of their ancestral lands, other possessions, including raping and snatching other people’s wives in order to dilute the indigenous people’s population - Ilorin in Kwara State of Nigeria is a good example.”

Thus, says the Lord, “Thou dragon of Daura, the Lord said I should tell you that that which thou glorieth in heretofore is not power, but an egg stolen from thy neighbour’s pen. Thou ought not to glory in stolen glory, except that thou art drunk! O Achan, do not begin to say to thyself that ye shall use corruption to fight corruption, for corruption does not fight corruption, but multiplieth it.
In this article JOHN ODEY ADUMA resumes his series he has been serialising since 2013 on OF THE FOOLS OF THE MIDDLE BELT…and focuses on Nigeria, the most populous African nation on the planet earth. And laments that Nigerians have lost the plot and the dream (of one Nigeria) and the vision to build a nation that will not just be the giant of Africa, but the envy of the world.
TOWARDS THE TOTAL ISLAMIFICATION OF NIGERIA…YO! DO YOU SPEAK ARABIC?
“Under Nero Muhammadu Buhari, the light of Nigeria has gone out and her glory departed; the sun has refused to shine and the moon has given up her light; the stars too have refused to sparkle, and sorrow, discomfort and depression and desolation have taken over Nigeria, leaving behind dashed hope and shattered dreams; and now reign supreme, suicides, suicides, suicides and homicides everywhere, and the Presidency, a mere Aceldama.”
LET MY PEOPLE REFLECT
Take my word for it! No General Practitioner (GP) or group of medical personnel, particularly in the United Kingdom would fail to tell MUHAMMADU BUHARI the utmost word of truth about his very ailing and fast deteriorating health with respect to undertaking tasks that are too demanding for his current state of health such as ruling a multi-cultural, multi-lingual nation like Nigeria, having over 200 million people – a 24/7 job which requires working round the clock, keeping an eye moment by moment on every member of such a very large population 24/7.
But what did Buhari’s GPs in London tell Mujaheed Muhammadu Buhari about his “over tasking” and “over pushing” himself at this age, giving his kind of very, very poor, poor state of health?

ELECTIONS AND THE POLICE IN NIGERIA…UNPREPARED AND WITHOUT A NATIONAL CHARACTER
In this article JOHN ODEY ADUMA resumes the series he has been serialising since 2013 on OF THE FOOLS OF THE MIDDLE BELT…and focuses on Nigeria, the most populous African nation on the planet earth as he sees her stumbling her way to the 2019 Elections without a strong, prepared, well equipped and sophisticated national police service, but a relic of the Hausa Constabulary of old, very thoroughly weakened by the successive governments in Nigeria, having to rely on the military to exhibit their braggadocio, browbeaten, emasculated/beheaded/decapitated, thoroughly confused, very disorganised, intimidated, timid and fearful, depersonalised without national character, without power, without authority and influence, very ill-equipped for the onerous tasks it is soon to be entrusted with, and despite this national tasks that lie ahead, no simulation exercises preparatory to the elections had been carried out in the last two-three years to determine its readiness and preparedness for the 2019 elections, and lying lazily prostrate like a toothless and a lazy bull dog that needs to lean its jaw against the wall before barking, it has shown to all the civilized world its very helplessness and crisis of identity!
Below is the thinking of the Chief Policing Officer of Africa’s most populous country, IBRAHIM KPOTUN IDRIS. This highly partisan blabbering by this dead-brain fellow of an IGP is the very reason why he must not be in office a second longer. Idris is a national disgrace and an embarrassment to all persons of African ancestry.
Having an idiot and a tyro such as Idris is the very reason for the current very crowded policing space in Nigeria, where every Omaga and Omagu are now policing multi-cultural, multi-lingual Nigeria.
Currently, the whole world is asking who really are the police in Nigeria, who really have the statutory right to police Nigeria – the so-called Nigeria Police, the armed forces, the para-military, the vigilantes, the militias, traditional rulers, big men and women, the presidency, the State Governors, the Local Government Chairpersons, touts, cow owners, herders, Boko Haram, other terrorists, militant pastoralists, Hisbahs, emirs, Miyetti WAHALA (Allah Cattle Breeders Association of Nigeria), the idiot Mama Boko Haram who ought to be in prison by now, but has been left to be talking rubbish/gibberish, whilst parents sorrow?
But why is this evil woman, AISHA WAKIL being celebrated by everybody in that country when she should be the first accused? This sort of exploitable policy of negotiating with criminals and having criminals who claim to be negotiators acting as intermediaries in the so-called negotiation exercises after having collected mouth-watery sums of money from Governments and relations of the kidnapped/abducted.
Need I say that so long as the nation refuses to punish criminals/terrorists together with their accomplices/collaborators, we shall continue to witness heightened criminal/terrorists activities of immense proportion in Nigeria, and continues to remain the joke of the world.
What having such negotiators as Aisha Wakil translates to is the legalization of criminality through the open door! Kidnappings/ killings by herdsmen/terrorist activities are ‘businesses’ people do go into in Nigeria without MBAs, registration with Corporate Affairs Commission and without the needed business plans.
This is the reason for the high rise of crimes of all sorts in Nigeria, from Boko Haram, OPC, all sorts of avengers in the Niger Delta and lately the arrival of the Desert Warriors, hence as it was in the beginning, is now and ever shall be…crimes and terrorism and herdsmen killings without end. Criminal/corruption/terrorists activities in Nigeria are the real businesses, but not taxed and accounted for.
The governing herd-instinct mentality in Nigeria means in just a manner of time, you will have many others competing with the Aisha Wakils of this world in their evil trade. But will someone get that woman arrested and prosecuted immediately?
In our fight against terror, we had taken the wrong steps of negotiating with terrorists, so this evil trade will sure be in our midst for centuries!
Just who indeed is in charge of policing Nigeria (?), just as the same question will be asked in another dimension: Who really are in charge of national security in today’s Nigeria? Also, who really is in charge of the COW GOVERNMENT in Nigeria, offering Nigerians COW GOVERNANCE to the shame and embarrassment of all persons of African ancestry and the whole of humanity?
Just who is in charge and in control of Nigeria – MACBAN, NSCDC, emirs, militias, vigilantes, the so-called bandits, cultists, social and political thugs, Almajiris who now dominate the crime industry in Nigeria, streets urchins, the irresponsible elders of the various ethnic nationalities, always taking delight in heating of the polity, and now doing the so-called endorsement of one political office seeker after another, pastoral militants, the cabal, Northern elders, the so-called Northern Governors, the treacherous Agbero Generals, who by our reckoning are mere opportunistic professional democracy snatchers (OPDS)?
But why should a man who does not understand first, what policing is all about, what policing a multi-cultural, multi-lingual polity entails, then what his statutory duties and job specifications are, be presiding over policing activities in Nigeria?
By the way, what right does this idiot have to tell elected officers what to do – to enact laws or when it is appropriate to or not to make laws for the governance of their people?
Just as this idiot has no right to command Governors about, neither do the Governors nor ministers, elected representatives, nor the President himself, nor the Presidency have any right to tell the IGP how and from where he has to police Nigeria.
Will all concerned in asking security chiefs to relocate to Sambisa, Chibok, Dapchi, the sky, the seas, the mountains, to the artic, to the valleys and wherever else stop embarrassing Africans and all of humanity?
The problem is not from where they are operating, but more than anything their zero intelligence gathering, treachery amongst security chiefs, always fighting amongst as to which of them is the great and to be the one to represent the rest of them to the presidency, thus refusing to work as a team; some of who themselves are terrorists/Boko Haram in uniforms – highly partisan, non-nationalistic without unalloyed patriotism, bigots and highly nepotistic, corrupt, religionists/Islamists/regionalists/tribalists/ethnicists being kept/maintained and paid salaries by the Nigerian tax payers; mere contract-chasing security chiefs who are all now money bags at the expense of the toiling masses of Nigerians, whose greed and unparalleled lust for power have pitched each against the other security chiefs, constantly quarrelling amongst themselves as to who is in charge or who should be in charge – “treacherous prodigals” with blood on their hands, who in every way are self-serving, serving not Nigeria, but vested and divisive interest groups in Nigeria.
Fie! Fie! Fie, to you all GOOD FOR NOTHING SECURITY CHIEFS. Thou informants to terrorists and other criminals! Go! Go! In the name of God, go!
Here’s is what IDIOT IDRIS had blabbered in the Nigerian media: “It is my suggestion that to reduce clashes between farmers and herders, state governments should endeavour to establish grazing ranches in their various states before enacting laws to prohibit open rearing and grazing.
“It is when grazing ranches are established that herders can be arrested and punished for rearing and grazing on the open places. I am of the opinion that it will make the law acceptable by all the parties concerned and other critical stakeholders. It will do us good if we avoid the hasty formulation and implementation of such (anti-grazing) laws across the country in the interest of peace and unity. “

Suspected Fulani herdsmen early hours of Monday invaded Mbatoho community in Makurdi, Benue State capital.
Mbatoho community is a council ward located on an Island in Makurdi town.

Leader of the community, who identified himself as John Tehemen, led a few other residents to lodge a complaint with deputy governor, Benson Abounu, saying that the herdsmen had ordered them to vacate their homes.
He said, “Herdsmen who were fully armed with sophisticated weapons early hours of yesterday (Monday) stormed our community, Mbatoho, and ordered everyone to leave.
“The herdsmen came in large numbers but they did not harm anyone; they only asked us to leave,” Tehemen said. He gave the population of the community to be about 5,000.
In response, the deputy governor said the government had just received the information from the community, adding that he had ordered the security adviser, Paul Hemba, to go and find out the situation.
“The community has just come to inform us about the attack; I have directed the security adviser to report to Police and find out the situation of things. The village is right here (pointing towards River Benue) across the river.

“Then she shouted, "Samson! The Philistines are coming!" He woke up and thought, "I'll get loose and go free, as always." He did not know that the LORD had left him,” Judges 16:20
Truth is, the North of Nigeria has for decades been sitting on a hydrological edge and I have not failed to warn the nation and the world about the impending ecological Armageddon upon the North, whose reasons had been adduced in the earlier series, so needs only a cursory mention here.
The causes and effects of the coming ecological disasters upon the Northern States of Nigeria have been personally investigated by me in the last 27 years and there is no Nigerian President/Head of State alive today who would feign ignorance of my investigations and the actual ecological problems that had faced the North, whether in the past, now or the ones it will face in the coming years as highlighted in all of my investigations in these past 27 years – these Heads of State/Presidents included General Gowon who in the days of: “Nigeria has so much money and its problems is how to spend it,” went about constructing mega dams and massive irrigation projects without the needed Environment Impact Assessment (EIA) or the needed Environmental Impact Assessment Study (EIAS) under his ill-thought policy of GREENING THE NORTH, but which has backfired, hence we have been, and are currently harvesting the negative effects of that GOWONIAN FOLLY, which has claimed thousands of lives and animals, put the ecology of the North under very serious and permanent distresses and unparalleled restiveness – one of these distresses and restiveness being the constant clashes between the pastoralists and their farmer compatriots, competing for the now very crowded grazing and agricultural spaces, first around the regions up North, cascading down the Heartland from the arid and desertification-sand dunes and dustbowls-ravaged North, and now throughout Nigeria, but curiously leaving the Sharia States of Kano, Sokoto, Jigawa and Katsina (Daura, especially), consequent upon thousands of avoidable deaths.
But these ought to have been foreseen and nipped in the bud with a plan of action or action plan -short, medium and long terms, where there is a visionary and purposeful leadership. Unfortunately for Lord Yakubu Gowon and the nation, the once mere clashes became politicised and later hijacked by local and international terrorists, whose backers and informants are in high places in Nigeria.
The other Heads of State/Presidents who were aware of my investigations, their findings, conclusions, proffering solutions and the way forward are Ibrahim Gbadamosi Babangida, whose Government outlawed reporting anything about the deleterious effects of the mega dams and the havoc they were causing, including the activities of the North East Arid Zone Development Projetcs (NEAZOP), but which I dared him as a staff reporter with The Guardian to report to the nation, the world and posterity about the imminence of ecological apocalypse, whose effects as predicted in the findings of all my investigations in these past 27 years are now manifesting, and worsened now by the current terrorists activities, the Buharian 2nd Intifada, cultural imperialism, linguistic impositionism and the territorial expansion as evidenced in Agatu, Loto, Guma, Mbatoho and other places in Muhammadu Buhari’s Nigeria of today.
The other Nigerian leaders who are very much aware about the ecological problems of the North, but did nothing, despite the fact that they all knew about these investigations of mine in the last 27 years are: Ernest Shonekan, who has been very, very close to the Nigeria Conservation Foundation right from its inception in 1982, and I’m very much aware, Chief Shonekan is a very close friend of all the members of the Board of Trustees of the NCF, especially the founding Trustees.
It will be recalled that as Head of State of Nigeria during the shaky interim days, a delegation of the NCF in 1993, led by another mentor of mine, and one of the great pillars behind the premier NGO, A.P. Leventis went to Abuja in 1993 to discuss with him about reviewing the Kafin Zakin Dam project, following one of my special reports – and no one who has an encyclopaedic knowledge of the Northern Nigerian ecology would discuss such a gigantic and a white elephant project without discussing the Nguru/Hadejia international wetlands, home to thousands of palearctic birds, the disappearing fadamas (traditional agriculture), the necessity for the jettisoning of subsistence pastoralism for economic pastoralism, the effects of the two mega dams on the ecology of the North, including their effects on Lake Chad - Tiga and Challawa Gorge and the massive irrigation projects with heavy pumps pumping waters from these dams to irrigate the the mechanised farms of the Generals, waters in such large quantities not needed, but which are denied to peasant farmers.
The late General Abacha and his Government too were aware of the ecological problems of the North, including all of my investigations and their findings.
Other leaders included General Abdulsalami Abubakar, that professional hijacker of democraccy (PhD), Olu Matio Aremu Okikiola Obasanjo, the former very stubborn barracks boy turned Alakowe, who has just got dem dash me degree in THEO-OLOJA.
In the subsequent series of this treatise, I will publish a part of my letter to President Olusegun Obasanjo through a great mentor of mine, Chief S.O. Fadahunsi, CON, expressing my worries and concern on the then genuine perennial clashes between the herdsmen and farmers, before its politicization and subsequent hijacking by the Bush and urban terrorists in collusion with international terrorists, ISIS, ISWA, the Janjaweed militia, Al-Shabaab, Al-Qaeda in the Maghreb, others from neigbouring West African States, North Africa and from far off East, urging him to do something about these menaces. That letter was personally delivered to him on my behalf at Ota by Chief Fadahunsi, whom Chief Obasanjo and I both share as our able mentor.
Umaru Musa Yar’Adua knew about my investigations both as Governor of Katsina (1999-2007) and as President.
In fact, on the day he was to leave for Abuja to resume as President of the Federal Republic of Nigeria, his Chief Press Secretary had earlier booked an appointment for me to speak to him on the phone from the United Kingdom. But the appointment was cancelled as he was hurrying to leave for Abuja. He however, did ask his Chief Press Secretary to convey his apologies to me.
In fairness to his Press Secretary, in the course of my discussion with him on the phone on that day, he apologetically asked me to listen to the sound of the hurrying moving footsteps and cars hurriedly getting ready to leave the State House, Katsina with the now President Yar’Adua.
Had my scheduled discussion with Alhaji Yar’Adua held, the problems I had in mind to remind him about were the then frequent clashes between the herders and the farmers competing for places to graze and farm, in addition to the worsening condition of the ecology of Northern Nigeria.
I was to latter send the then President a blueprint on national rebirth through a female aide of his, a member of the Presidential Transition Committee constituted by Olusegun Obasanjo for the handing over of governance to President Umaru Musa Yar’Adua, the same that was presented to Chief Olusegun Obasanjo during my courtesy call on him at the State House in Abuja on October 14, 2002, together with 22 copies of my Book: The Diamonds are Here, two giant gold-plaited plaques, respectively entitled: THE GREAT SUMMONS, THE NIGERIAN SPIRIT, and a little gold-plaited desk plaque titled: FOUNTAIN OF WISDOM, which were the campaign materials on NATIONAL REBIRHT -THE NIGERIAN RENAISSANCE, courtesy of my NGO: MOVEMENT FOR AFRICAN RENAISSANCE AND GLOBAL PEACE.
In subsequent series, I will publish a commendation letter sent to me by the then Governor Yar’Adua’s Deputy, Alhai Tukur Ahmed Jikamshi on behalf of the Governor and the good people of Katsina State, dated 17th December 1999, Ref: KTS/ODG/S/53/VOL.1/17 for my environmental activism in the North of Nigeria.
FOR THOSE WHO DO NOT KNOW ABOUT THE PASTORAL RESOLVE FOUNDED AND FUNDED BY MR ROMEO BARBEROPOULOS AND CO-OPTED MAJOR GENERAL MUHAMMADU BUHARI INTO IT AS THE FIRST EVER PRESIDENT OF PARE AND SUCCEEDED BY AHMED JODA WHO HAS BEEN MAINTAINING A CONSPIRATORIAL SILENCE OVER MIYETTI WAHALA AND THE MINDLESS KILLINGS OF THE FULBE MILITIA IN COLLABORTION WITH FULANI TERRORISTS FROM ALL OVER AFRICA AND BEYOND
Whilst incubating on the idea of the Pastoral Resolve (PARE) based on my investigations, my then boss and mentor, Mr barberopoulos informed all the prominent Fulanis, first on the phone, followed by letters in which copies of my published investigations over the years were attached.
Amongst such eminent Fulanis were: Muhammadu Buhari, Ahmed Joda, his bossom friend who also was a member of the Board of Trustee of the nation’s premier Conservation NGO, the Nigerian Conservation Foundation (NCF), Alhaji Alhaji, Professor Jubril Aminu and a host of other Fulbe eminent elites, some of who made it to the initial 13-14-member Board of Trustees, with one female, but now scaled down to just nine.
But the reader, fellow Nigerians MUST be made aware that this was not the ORIGINAL vision, mission statement, aims and objectives and philosophy as it has been tampered with and doctored to suit the current Arab-Fulbe territorial expansion in Nigeria, West Africa and indeed, Africa as a whole, courtesy of the current resurgence of Islam in Africa through terrorists, other jihadi activities – introduction of Sharia all over Africa, dilution and superimposition of the Bedouin-Arab cultures, wearing of niqab, hijab by African women, young and old in social and education settings, and through the so-called loans from Islamic Development Bank for the so-called education development in Nigeria/Africa, for which even some Christian States in Nigeria are already falling and infrastructural development in Nigeria and the continent as a whole. My dear peoples of Africa must therefore watch these baits from the Wahabis and the Salafists promoting in modern times the cruelest and the most monstrous form of Islam, which they claim is the authentic/original and undilute Islam.
What we had in the ORIGINAL/AUTHENTIC/UNDILUTED and UNPOLITICISED little PARE booklet as wriiten my me with inputs by my boss and mentor, MR ROMEO V. BARBEROPOULOS were based on the recommendation and the conclusions of my findings over the years in the course of my investigating the worsening conditions of the Northern Nigerian ecology – the deleterous effects of the mega dams, massive irrigation projects, the hijacking of the highly fertile flood plains/valleys by the Generals, the Fulbe-Hausa-Kanuri elites, the ravaging desert fires (desertification), sand dunes burying communities, ocassion bursting of the mega dams, sweeping away communities, but unreported, the farmers-herders internecine wars which then was highly localised up North, with a few frictions here and in the Middle Belt and in the South, the desiccation of the river systems courtesy of the mega dams, droughts of Biblical proportion, deaths resulting in the deaths of both human beings and animals in their thousands, cattle rustlings, invasion of unquarantined animals from neighbouring West African States – Chad, Niger, Northern Cameroon, Mali, etc, with many a Fulbe family migrating to Cameroon, Central African Republic Gabon, etc, where conditions are favourable, the education of the pastoralists, particularly their kids, absence of Government presence in their nomadic life, no hospitals/clinics, schools in their ruga, no vertinary clinic in their rugas, the fact that the Borros were the only group of Nigerians belonging to no Local Government Council in Nigeria due to their nomadic lifestyle, etc, etc and the overall effects of the weather (climate change) on the people, animals and crops, consequent upon the disappearance of the fadamsa – traditional agriculture in Northern Nigeria.
All our concerns were in fact, to move the pastoralists from their then/current nomadic lifestyle in order to embrace modernity, moving them from subsistence pastoralism to economic pastoralism, so as to inaugurate the tradition of industrial livestock farming on a large scale, surpassing that of Europe, the Americas and other parts of the world. In fact, before leaving the private sector back to the newsroom to take up the executive level appointment as the Chairman, Editorial Board of the Daily Times of Nigeria Plc, then Africa’s largest newspaper conglomerate, I had initiate a livestock farming exhibition in the furtherance of my dream of large a scale industrial lives stock farming in Nigeria, and indeed, Africa – and this was greeted with the keenest of enthusiasm by the lives stock industry chieftains I had met on one on one and other industry practitioners.
As claimed in the doctored PARE VISION below, there was no where I had written, and I as an insider and one fighting for justice for the pastoralists and the whole of Northern Nigeria, and indeed all of Nigeria, there was just no way I could have triggered an unnecessary political, religious and cultural war by stating in the little PARE booklet I had personally written that the pastoralists could be found in 28 States, especially at a time when pastoralism was highly seasonal – with the herders/nomads/pastoralists migrating from the north of Nigeria to the South when conditions were no longer favourable and returned to the North afterwards when the conditions were favourable up North! Those who are of the view that the pastoralists could be found in 28 States in Nigeria are mischief-making and agent-provocateur land grabbing murderous caliphate delusionists out to rob the First Nation Nigerians (FNN), the indigenous Nigerian of their ancestral land for the Arab_Fulbe empire in Nigeria – and must be resisted by all Nigerians as they are prowling over every place to establish their so-called colonies, which will later be upgraded to emirates under the control of the SOKOTO CALIPHATE, holding them as trusts for their Arab cousins and Masters! So, fellow Nigerians, be ware!
This an unnecessary provocation to grab the ancestral lands of other Nigerians for the now UNTOUCHABLE PASTORALISTS, but just as my global human rights activism is to bring justice and peace to all of humanity,no matter their colour, creed, philosophy, cultures and religion, it is also to make people accountable by bringing all under the laws of their nations! So, let my people read the PARE vision and watch out! Keep an eye on your backyard because their NEXT LEVEL, Nigerians and their friends around the world will watch with their mouth agape, but they can’t cry nor weep because they will be overwhelmed by the atrocities of the Herod of Daura which will surpass that of the Biblical Herod.
My warning to every Buhari, Aisha and the cabal is if they seek to out Hero Herod, then they will first be a YELLVOLUTION to be followed by a protracted YELLOWVOLUTION!
The Pastoral Resolve (PARE) is a nongovernmental, non profit making, non ethnic and non political organisation incorporated in April 1999 in Nigeria, working in all parts of the country, particularly in those areas with higher levels of pastoralists concentrations. It is a membership organisation with a nine member Board of Trustees headed by a President with 138 members and about 200 registered Local Pastoral Associations. Our Vision The vision is to be a leading NGO devoted to nurture the Pastoralists peoples’ aspirations for change, from their life of subsistence to that of a truly fulfilling, peaceful, pleasant one that manifest the beauty and greatness of nature.
Our Mission
Population of over 10 million (estimated from the 1991 Population Census)
Key priorities of PARE over the years are in promoting education, management of pastoralists - farmers conflicts, advocacy on behalf of the pastoralists and promoting cooperation and unity, including the formation of cooperative societies as platforms for improving livestock productivity and improved livelihoods. Mode of Operations
With a functional Secretariat, The Pastoral Resolve (PARE) adopts a grassroots bottom – up participatory approach that recognizes the skill, culture, value systems and environment of the pastoralists. PARE promotes the conservation and proper management of environmental resources in both the short and long-term periods. In implementation, the beneficiaries are seen as the main ‘actors’, undertaking initiatives themselves. Stakeholders participate in project initiatives from planning to implementation. Target groups/communities define objectives and key activities and contribute financially and/or materially to projects implementation. Thus, design and implementation enshrines fundamental activities that guarantees sustainability of projects and programmes, such that benefits to community will not lead to depletion of the resource base or decline in levels of productivity over time and space. PARE mobilizes pastoralists and organizes them into viable Local Pastoral Association (LPAs) and cooperative societies. A number of LPAs form a ZONAL FORUM that is represented on the PARE Executive Council. Participatory and integrated projects are then initiated and resources are mobilized to facilitate implementation of designed initiatives. The main organs of PARE are the Board of Trustees, the National Executive Council, the Secretariat, the Zonal Forum of Members (State Chapters) and the General Assembly. The Secretariat headed by an Executive Director coordinates and implement the activities of PARE. Activities
In view of the diverse problems facing pastoralists in Nigeria, PARE sets out five priority areas:
NGO mobilises $31m for establishment of 6 grazing reserves in Nigeria
Publication Date: On June 8, 201212:10 am
By JIMOH BABATUNDE with agency reports
The perennial clashes between pastoralists and farmers in the country have been attributed to the non-enforcement of grazing laws on the part of government.
A former retired Permanent Secretary, Alhaji Ahmed Joda, said the global climate change phenomenon, had exacerbated desert encroachment, thereby pushing pastoralists further southwards in search of grazing lands.
He spoke with journalists in Abuja recently on plans by a Non Governmental Organisation, Pastoral Resolve (PARE) to mobilise N5 billion (about US$31 million) for the establishment of six grazing reserves in six states in northern Nigeria.
Joda said the continued clashes have their genesis in the fact that grazing laws are deliberately ignored, thereby encouraging encroachment of gazetted grazing reserves. ‘`Lack of political will and total neglect of the livestock sub-sector by the various governments has resulted in massive encroachment into both gazetted, proposed grazing reserves and blockage of stock routes in the country. ”The policy and legal vacuum serve to exacerbate the conflict between pastoralists and crop producers, a situation that continues to escalate over much of the northern and the middle-belt states of the country.
Joda, a retired Permanent Secretary, who is currently a farmer, expressed concern that the current tension between herdsmen and farmers constituted a threat to peace and national security, if not addressed. “I can see no peace, if we don’t solve this problem.
As important as oil and the manufacturing sectors are, the livestock industry provides nutrition and jobs, among other economic benefits. “At the rate we are going, there will be no grazing land; and this might result to a war along ethnic and religious lines. “If we have peace, and stability, we do not need security checks which drains the national economy, if we can develop the livestock industry and eliminate tension associated with it,” he said.
Joda explained that the NGO, Pastoral Resolve (PARE) which he is the President is set to mobilise N5 billion (about US$31 million) for the establishment of six grazing reserves in six states in northern Nigeria.
This initiative is aimed at solving the perennial conflicts between pastoralists and farmers occasioned by poor access to land and water, among other facilities. The targeted pilot states are Adamawa, Bauchi, Benue, Kogi, Nasarawa and Niger.
Pastoral Resolve is working on the project in collaboration with Enhancing Nigerian Advocacy for a Better Environment (ENABLE), a development agency.
Earlier, Mr Umar Hassan, the Chief Executive Officer of PARE, noted that only 12 of the 433 grazing reserves in the country were functional while 36 were receiving attention.
The livestock industry, Hassan said, had the potential to generate about US$ 20 billion but currently accounts for six to seven percent of the nation’s GDP, representing N250 billion (about US$1.5 billion).
According to him, there are 21 million pastoralists in Nigeria, representing 14 percent of the population, rearing 16 million cattle, among other livestock.

POSER FOR THE FULBE-HAUSA-KANURI ELITE FARMERS , POLITICIANS OF NORTHERN EXTRACTION AND EMIRS
What has happened to all the gazetted cattle routes/tracks starting from the colonial ones, the ones gazetted by the Northern Nigerian Regional Authority in 1959 and subsequent ones at independence and the post-colonial ones?
I have written very copiously about their disappearances, so will not continue to repeat myself on this anymore, but all those who had used their privileged positions to share these cattle routes for selfish purposes – establishment of their mechanized farms and other development projects, including their orchards not only have on their hands the blood of the innocent killed in the herders-farmers conflicts, now hijacked by the Fulbe murderers as funded and instigate by the Presidency, palaces and the Miyetti Allah Cattle Breeders Association (MACBAN) together with other Fulbe self-interest associations, their foreign collaborators from the Gulf States and all the heartless and paedophilic emirs in their evil palaces, where thousands of kids are now being held as captives just to satisfy their sexual concupiscence will be judged – the God of Nigeria, sending pestilences and wasted diseases onto/upon them and their families onto the 100th generation and with mysterious fires razing down their political and religious shrines which pass for places!
And let all of Nigerians and humanity join me in saying: AMEN!
But let justice roll on like a river, righteousness like a never-failing stream!” Amos 5:24.
CALLING ON ALL SOUTHERN MUSLIMSTO DEMAND THE ROTATION OR ZONING OF THE RELIGIOU, POLITICAL AND SPIRITUAL HEADSHIP OF ALL MUSLIM IN NIGERIA
Without beating about the bush, now is the time for all the Southern Muslims in Nigeria to demand for the rotation or zoning of the religious and spiritual headship of all the Muslims in Nigeria. The Muslim South must remember they are not knaves and they are not slaves, but free-born and bonafide citizens of the Federal Republic of Nigeria just like their brethren in the North of Nigeria. Thus, they must step forward bravely and boldly to demand their rights to which they are entitled within the Muslim community in Nigeria, and such as an entrenched provision in the Constitution of the Federal Republic of Nigeria. If the Fulani-Hausa-Kanuri Muslims are always quick to ask for the zoning and rotation of political offices in Nigeria, there is therefore, no reason why the same should not apply in the religio-spiritual sphere.
With immediate effect, machinery must now be put in place to facilitate the zoning and rotation of the all-round headship of the Muslims community in Nigeria. The new arrangement which must start in earnest suggestively could be yearly, biennial or every four years.
The campaign slogan to redress these centuries of injustices against the Southern Nigerian Muslims must be entitled: WE TOO ARE MUSLIMS!
Oya! Ngwanu, Southern Muslims:
Solidarity forever, solidarity forever, solidarity forever, we shall always fight for our right!
Soli…soli..soli..Solidarity forever, solidarity forever, we shall always fight for our right!
Solidarity forever, solidarity forever, solidarity forever, we shall always fight for our right!

…between a nation’s two most objectionable alternatives – Judas of Daura and Barabbas of Adamawa
PART 1
JOHN ODEY ADUMA in this article lamented the unfortunate choices the West African State of Nigeria, henceforth to be known and called the STATE OF NATURE under the current Sunni-APC-led Government is left with - Muhammadu Buhari (Judas/Hitler of Daura) and Atiku Abubakar (Barabbas/Barawo of Adamawa) for whom they will vote in the 2019 Presidential Election.

The Future of Chadian Foreign Policy in an Age of Uncertainty
Since gaining its independence from France in 1960, there have rarely been so many open questions regarding Chad's role in the world. What is Chad's place in Africa, CEMAC or the African Union? What risks and opportunities exist for Chad in a conflict-ridden Africa? As foreign policy of any country is a reflection of its internal situation; many Chadians have high-arguably temperamental or unrealistic expectations of the economic boost that normalized relations will confer - heir initial optimism has been tempered as they wait for the international community to outline its next moves and endure an economic crisis brought on by years of corruption and poor governance. But the importance of the geostrategic location of Chad has led to attracting the interest of many countries, especially the developed ones.
