Chief Femi Fani-Kayode, the former PDP campaign
spokesman, has in a prophetic manner said that
President Muhammadu Buhari might either die of
overthrown as no core northern muslim leader has
ever ended well in Aso Rock.
Fani-Kayode his latest article titled, “The Butchers
From The North”, said, “The truth is that every single
core Northern Muslim leader that has ever ruled this
country has either died on the throne or been
removed from power in a military coup. Not one of
them ended well.”
Bellow in the full tect of the article:
The butchers from the north are better known as the
Fulani militants and herdsmen. They have unleashed
horror and levied war against the people of Nigeria
over the last one year. The saints are the Christians
that they have slaughtered all over the country in that
same period of time. I consider every single saint
that they have killed as a martyr because they died
for their faith. I honour them with this essay and I
dedicate it to their memory.
On 24th August 2016 Mr. Phil Smart wrote the
following on Facebook: “Catholic seminarian
butchered, pregnant woman’s stomach cut open….as
Fulani herdsmen continue killing in Enugu”. The
words were accompanied by a picture of a Catholic
priest whose body had been shredded into pieces
like fresh mincemeat or a Japanese sirloin steak.
There was another of a pregnant woman whose
stomach had been slit open right down the middle
and whose unborn foetus and guts were hanging out
for all to see. Clearly she had been carefully and
clinically gutted. Many other bodies were strewn all
over the burnt out fields and compounds of the
village and some were so badly mutilated and
chopped up that it would have been difficult to
convince anyone that they once belonged to human
beings.
Not even babies were spared. In truth this was not
the work of men but rather of demon-possesed
hybrid entities that the famous British conspiracy-
theorist Mr. David Icke describes as “shape-shifting
reptilians” and sociopathic beasts. Worse still this
was the second time in a matter of weeks that the
relative tranquility of Enugu was desecrated by the
presence of these nomadic beasts and murdering
bastards. On the previous occasion they caused as
much havoc, slaughtered as many people and
engendered as much consternation and outrage as
the succeeding one.
Yet it doesn’t stop there. On the very same day that
the latest attack in Enugu was going on other
Nigerians were being attacked and “burnt alive” by
people of the same radical Islamist bent and spirit in
far away Zamfara for “blaspheming against Islam”.
Other similar attacks by the same fanatics and
jihadists took place on that day in southern Kaduna,
Benue, Niger, Ondo, Plateau, Delta and various other
parts of the country. If the truth be told this carnage
and butchery has now become a daily occurrence in
our country and it is always the same people, namely
the butchers from the North that perpetrate them.
The worst aspect of it all is that no-one has ever been
arrested, prosecuted or brought to justice by the
government for these hideous crimes mainly
because President Buhari himself is a Fulani and
consequently the authorities seem to have cultivated
a soft-spot for them.
Indeed Buhari is actually the life Patron and
“protector-in-chief” of the umbrella organisation of
all the Fulani Herdsmen in Nigeria which is known as
Miyetti Allah. There is of course another view which
is that the herdsmen are actually a tool of conquest
who are being carefully cultivated, co-ordinated,
controlled, organised, armed and funded by a
sinister and dark hidden hand: that they are
something akin to a Fulani “death squad” or armed
militia. Those that share that view, and yours truly is
amongst them, often refer to the butchers from the
north as Nigeria’s “Janjaweed”, after the ruthless
camel-riding Arab Muslim militia which Sudanese
President Al Bashir commissioned, armed and
employed to decimate, slaughter and commit
genocide against over one million defenceless black
African Sudanese Christians in the vast region of
Darfur for many years. It is also why the U.S.-based
Global Terror Index describes them as the “Fulani
Militants” and has designated them as the “fourth
most deadly terrorist organisation” in the world.
Whatever one chooses to call them, whoever is
behind them and whatever their motives may be one
thing is clear: their actions are outrageous and
barbaric and such behaviour has no place in a
civilised society.
I feel a deep sense of anger and outrage on the one
hand and utter shame and frustration on the other
about what is going on in our country today and what
these butchers from the north are doing to our
people. Theirs is a scorched earth policy and they
take no prisoners. They rape, kill, abduct, kidnap and
terrorise people and they rob, burn down, destroy
and pillage their homes, churches and farmlands at
will. Worse still they commit these atrocities with
total impunity and without any fear of the law
enforcement agencies or security forces. And all this
is done in the name and under the guise of herding
cows and looking for grazing land for their cattle.
I feel a deep sense of anger and outrage towards
President Buhari and his government, because they
seem to believe that the constant spilling and
shedding of innocent Christian blood is something
that brings them good fortune. It also appears to give
them immense pleasure and joy otherwise they
would have put a stop to it long ago. I feel shame and
frustration because the Nigerian people themselves
seem wholly incapable of standing up to that which is
nothing less than pure evil. They seem incapable of
protesting against anything, no matter how bestial
and barbaric that thing may be. I wonder who has
bewitched us. Is this the work of the “mai chanji”
sweeping broom brew?
Have the Nigerian people been charmed? Are we
under a spell? Are we like the biblical Galatians who
the Apostle Paul says were “bewitched”? Our people
appear to be wholly incapable of resisting and facing
down those that have enthroned sadism and
wickedness in their hearts and that take pleasure in
indulging in mass murder, genocide and ethnic
cleansing in our land. It is not only the government
that has failed but the political leaders from all the
opposition parties, the traditional rulers, the clerics,
the religious leaders, the media practitioners, the
publishers, the columnists, the writers, the human
rights activists, the editorial boards of newspapers,
the bloggers, the intellectuals, the businessmen, the
teachers, the students, the writers, the elites, the
middle class, the workers, the unions and the
ordinary people themselves have all failed too. They
have all been gripped by the spirit of fear. They have
been bullied, intimidated, brow-beaten and shocked
into pitiful submission and a sickening and cowardly
timidity. They have all failed to defend and speak up
for the defenceless, the weak and the vulnerable in
our midst. They have failed to protect and shield the
thousands that are hacked to pieces and burnt alive
on a regular basis by the rabid islamist beasts and
terrorists in our midst for no just cause other than
the fact that they are perceived as being nothing but
Christian, Middle Belt and southern slaves.
I am going to say some hard things and speak some
home truths in this contribution and frankly I do not
care who takes offence, whose ox is gored or who
feels hurt by it. People are being killed by the demons
in flesh, the tsetse flies and the religious and ethnic
bigots in our land every day. Buhari’s Nigeria is
awash with blood and most of it is Christian blood
that is being shed by his misguided and dark-hearted
Fulani kinsmen. It is time to speak the truth no matter
how ugly that truth may be and no matter how
politically incorrect it may be to speak it. It is time to
stand up to the evil in the land, to damn the
consequences and to bear the threats and insults
that always come for speaking and exposing the truth
in what has essentially become a police state. It is
time to coin that famous Ghanaian phrase that says
“all die be die” and to remember Shakespeare’s
words when he wrote “even though the heavens fall,
let the truth be told and let justice be done”. And that
truth is that the evil that has seized our land has two
columns, two heads and two primary sources of
motivation.
The first is the forceful and bloody quest for Fulani
supremacy, ethnic hegemony and racial domination.
The second is the morbid obsession by the radical
Muslims of core northern Nigeria to shed innocent
blood, to take life in the name of their god, to effect
Jihad against those that do not share their world
view, to wipe out Christianity, to enslave our people
and to Islamise our country.
"The truth is that every single CORE northern
Muslim leader that has ever ruled this country has
either died on the throne or been removed from
power in a military coup. Not one of them ended
well. Whether the second coming of Buhari will end
any differently remains to be seen. One thing that is
clear to me though is that the whole thing is spiritual.
It is being orchestrated and effected by the finger of
God and not by any man. It is God’s way of saying
that they were never meant to rule and be there in
the first place and that He has rejected them. It is the
work of the Ancient of Days and the Lord God of
Hosts.
"
They believe that they were “born to rule” but in
actual fact they have been rejected by the Living God.
Those that employ mass murder, ethnic cleansing
and genocide as a tool of conquest and a legitimate
weapon of war, that consider their fellow Nigerians
to be sub-human and that believe that those fellow
Nigerians are nothing but chattel and serfs that are
destined to be ruled over by some distant caliph are
in grave error: they have not fully understood God’s
plan and purpose for this country. They cannot
comprehend or understand what is slowly unfolding.
They do not appreciate the fact that no matter how
much evil they visit on the rest of us that God is at
work and His counsel alone will stand over our
people and in the affairs of our nation. The truth is
that the Lord regards them as nothing more than
unbelieving slaves and they are far below us. They
are of the darkness and we are of the light. The bible
describes it is a “great evil under the sun” when “the
children of slaves ride on horseback” whilst “the sons
of Kings walk around barefoot”.
That is what has been happening in Nigeria since
1960. The children of the “bonded woman” have been
riding on horseback whilst the children “of promise”
have been walking around barefoot. This is indeed “a
great evil under the sun”. It is a spiritual affliction. It
is witchcraft. It is an abomination. It is unacceptable.
It is a total reversal of the way things ought to be. It is
a rejection, usurpation and total corruption of God’s
original plan. It is ungodly and it is anti-Christ. I
blame no-one but the leadership of the body of Christ
in Nigeria for this mess. There are a few good ones
amongst them who stood firm and spoke out when it
mattered the most but sadly there are others who
are more interested in collecting tiny crumbs from
the President’s table and buying fine clothes,
expensive jewellery, fast cars and private jets than
they are in standing up for their flock and effecting
God’s purpose and plan for Nigeria. Worst still there
is also a small handful, like that short and vocal Rev.
Father from Enugu, who have chosen to sell their
souls to the devil, collaborate with the enemies of
Christ and serve as the principal cheerleaders to the
tyrant. If our men and women of God were bold and
courageous and if they were doing their job properly
the radical Muslims could not have turned Christians
in Nigeria into second class citizens and toilet paper
and a sharia-loving, Muslim-fundamentalist, closet-
jihadist and Fulani supremacist like Buhari would
never have been in power today. The bottom line is
this: if you are not ready to die for Christ or to lose
your life or liberty for defending and protecting the
gospel, God’s children or the faith then you are not
worthy of being called a Christian.
We must help the Christian Association of Nigeria
(CAN) to stand firm and strengthen their collective
resolve but we must not leave it at that. We must also
organise ourselves as well, not only in the political
arena, but also by setting up strong Christian militias
and defence squads to protect our churches and our
people from the terrorists and butchers. We must
aspire to emulate the Christian Phalange militia in
Lebanon which was formed just before the Lebanese
civil war broke out in the ’70’s and 80’s. They were
disciplined, well organised, gallant and courageous
and they defended the lives of their people and the
honour of their faith.
The truth is that had it not been for the Phalange the
Christians of Lebanon would have been wiped out by
the Muslims in that war. I abhor violence and neither
do I advocate its use. However we must accept the
fact that, whether we like it or not, ultimately this
matter will be settled not just by prayers, politics,
long essays and press statements but also with guns
and bullets. This is because violence is the only
language that the butchers from the north appreciate
and can comprehend. If the state is either incapable
or refuses to protect the Christian community in
Nigeria we will be left with no choice but to defend
ourselves and protect our own. Permit me to
conclude this contribution with the following.
I would urge all those that still love and support this
government to take a long hard look at the pictures
that are strewn all over the internet of their fellow
Nigerians that have been mutilated and carved up
like Christmas turkeys and sallah goats. This is the
work of Buhari’s kinsmen, the Fulani militias and
herdsmen. He has refused to arrest any of them let
alone bring them to justice. Instead he has ruined
our economy, impoverished and destroyed the lives
of our people and aborted their God-given destiny,
divided our nation on religious and ethnic lines,
demonised us before the international community
and labelled every Nigerian, apart from himself, as
being incompetent and corrupt.
This is a man that spends his time pontificating about
corruption with long and boring speeches and
pointing fingers at others. This is a man that told Mr.
Shinzo Abe, the Prime Minister of Japan at the Tokyo
summit in Nairobi just yesterday, that Nigeria’s
“business environment is not friendly to investors”
and that consistently tells other world leaders how
supposedly “corrupt” his own people are. He has
conveniently refused to tell those same world leaders
how his presidential campaign was funded, how
much money those that ran his campaign paid Mr.
David Axelrod, President Obama’s campaign advisor
and publicist, and how many cars and how much
“allowance” he collected from Col. Sambo Dasuki,
President Goodluck Jonathan’s National Security
Advisor, before being “elected” President. The Bible
says “let he who is free of sin cast the first stone”.
Nigerians may not know the truth today but God does
and He cannot be mocked. Let Him judge between us.
Yet the truth is that President Buhari’s administration
is not only essentially hypocritical but they also have
no shame. All those that continue to support them
and cheer them on are equally shameless. Worst still
their supporters are cowards because they cannot
find the courage to admit that they were wrong in
supporting a government that is manifestly divisive,
insensitive, incompetent, corrupt and intolerant of
criticism and dissent. They are the ones that we must
hold responsible and accountable for what has
happened to those unfortunate people in all those
pictures. They are the ones that we must blame for
what has been happening to thousands of others at
the hands of the Fulani militants and herdsmen all
over the country for the last one year and three
months. I say this because they are the ones that
have encouraged the beast and cheered him on.
They are the ones that have fed his blood-lust and
encouraged him in his morbid quest to steal, kill and
destroy. They are the ones that wanted, and still
want, “mai chanji”. I say a pox on all their houses!
Shame on them and shame on the beast and tyrant
that they worship. May the souls of all the saints,
believers and Christian martyrs that were cut short
by the butchers and barbarians from the north rest
in peace and may the Lord God of Hosts avenge them
speedily. Shalom
