It’s shameful security agents fail to arrest Aso Rock burglars one year after –HURIWA

*HURIWA DEPLORES INABILITY OF SECURITY FORCES TO STOP RISING CRIMES/TERRORISTS INFILTRATION OF FCT

Civil rights advocacy group, Human Rights Writers Association of Nigeria, (HURIWA) on Tuesday, slammed the Nigeria Police Force, the Nigerian Army, the Department of State Services, the National Intelligence Agency and other security agencies for their collective failure to fish out some Aso Rock burglars one year after the embarrassing incident.  

Robbers, last May, had burgled the residence of the Chief of Staff to the President, Ibrahim Gambari, inside the Presidential Villa, Abuja and the incident was confirmed by presidential spokesman, Garba Shehu.

HURIWA, in a statement by its National Coordinator, Emmanuel Onwubiko, also said the incompetence of the security agents and their failure to arrest the Aso Rock burglars has buoyed burglars and bandits so much so that they sacked Abuja villagers and cause hundreds of dwellers to flee their homes despite living in the seat of power, kilometres away from President Muhammadu Buhari. 

Residents of rural communities in the FCT have reportedly fled their homes after bandits went on a rampage, killing a 23-year-old man, Nura Mai Gyada, and stealing 36 motorcycles.

According to news reports, daring bandits went on the rampage last weekend in the Adagba community of the Abaji Area Council of the Federal Capital Territory, kidnapping residents and killing some. 

Residents had said the bandits numbering over 100 with sophisticated weapons invaded the community around 9pm on Saturday, divided themselves into groups, moved from house to house while shooting into the air and made away with motorcycles, other valuables and cash.

Several other kidnappings, killings and disturbing attacks have occurred in Abuja in the last two years including the attack and abduction of two Abuja-based journalists of PUNCH Newspapers, Solomon Odeniyi and Amarachi Orjiude, within 24-hours last March; the attack on the Abuja Bureau Chief of the Nigerian Tribune, Leon Usigbe, also in March 2022, the abduction of a PUNCH journalist, Okechukwu Nnodim, in February 2021; amongst numerous others that went unreported in the media.

Reacting, HURIWA’s Onwubiko said, “It is shameful and a pointer to the inefficiency of all the security agents that one year after daring burglars invaded the residence of a whole Chief of Staff to the President, Ibrahim Gambari, a street to that of the President in Aso Villa, the police, the DSS, the Army and others are yet to fish out the perpetrators. Or have they gotten the so-called burglars but failed to revert to Nigerians about the development? 

“The whole security architecture are also yet to be ascertained how armed robbers gained access into the ‘well-fortified’ Presidential Villa manned by a combined team of policemen, DSS operatives, and men of the Presidential Guards Brigade of the Nigeria Army. Sadly, till date, this invasion has yet to be resolved.  

“Contrastively, more than 725 people have been arrested for storming the United State Capitol building on January 6, 2021. Over 71 rioters have also received criminal sentences, while the rest are waiting for their trials or haven’t yet reached plea agreements for charges ranging from obstruction of an official proceeding to assault.

“The continuous state of insecurity in Nigeria and the shameless incapacity of the security agencies to secure even the FCT is now obvious. If the security agents cannot even secure Aso Villa and the FCT that is about the smallest state if we take it to be a state and the seat of national power, then the hope of the common man is quashed.

“It’s pathetic that FCT residents now flee to the central business district of Abuja over attacks and invasion by marauding bandits in communities outside of the Central Areas of the metropolis. 

“The Buhari regime must wake up and proffer radical solutions to the insecurity situation in the country.

“Nigerians must also demand accountability from the security agencies because defence sector got the largest chunk of budget this year. why is nobody being punished for failing to safeguard lives of Nigerians despite that the cardinal role of the government is the security of lives and property? Enough is enough.”

A Note Of Clarification On Behalf Of The LNC And NINAS Regarding The NINAS CFM Proposition To Suspend Further National Elections Under The Repudiated 1999 Constitution And For The Immediate Undertaking Of The Fundamental Reconstruction Of The Damaged Constitutional Basis Of The Distressed Federation Of Nigeria 

LNC-NINAS Joint Secretariat

23 April 2022

The attention of the LNC and the NINAS Secretariat has been drawn to news making the rounds on social media about the IPOB/ESN shutting down Elections in Igbo Land. 

This would have been a most welcome development but for the attempt by whichever faction of IPOB peddling that story, to link the Elections shutdown undertaking to the totally meaningless “Biafra Restoration” campaign and the agitation to free their detained Leader.

The public is by this Note of Clarification, invited to NOTE that the suspension or halting of further National Elections under the 1999 Constitution as prescribed and being pursued by the LNC and its NINAS Allies is for the ENTIRE Alliance Territory being the South and Middle Belt, (not just Igboland).

More importantly, the electoral shutdown undertaking is for the strategic purpose of Taking Down the 1999 Constitution and therefore precipitating the Transitioning that will midwife the Regional Self-Determination Referendums by which the trapped constituent components of the distressed Nigerian Federation shall determine their Political Future.

It is pertinent to note that much as all who believe in the LNC-NINAS Grand Script are welcome to participate in the implementation processes in their various Blocs, it has to be strictly within the Template and Operational Modalities dictated by the LNC-NINAS Grand Script especially as encapsulated by the December 16, 2020, Constitutional Force Majeure Proclamation of the Nigerian Indigenous Nationalities Alliance for Self-Determination (NINAS).

It is in the context of this clarification that it has become necessary to inform the public THAT the IPOB/ESN elements who in the Igbo space, are now attempting to inject themselves and their campaign to free their detained leader, into the much wider and purpose-driven elections shutdown undertaking, ARE NOT doing so within or on behalf of the LNC-NINAS Grand Script, especially for the known methods of IPOB/ESN which the LNC and its NINAS Allies have for many years been publicly and totally opposed to. 

IPOB’s current attempt is no more than their trademark-desperation to take credit for things they know nothing about, oftentimes causing damage, distortions, and setbacks to the substantive undertaking. 

One example of this crude credit-seeking and dishonest distortions was where the IPOB misread the National Elections Shutdown propositions of the LNC-NINAS and so ran off with an ill-thought-out Boycott of the Anambra State elections. The blood-cost and disruptive outcomes of that misadventure, both in the 2017 round (Python Dance) and the 2022 round are still fresh in public memory.

Another example of stealing ill-digested ideas for credit-seeking purposes was the quiet international engagements and undertakings of the LNC and its NINAS Allies, especially in the Policy Beltways of Washington DC and at the UN in New York, between 2015 and 2019. The IPOB propaganda machinery went on a photo-shopping spree to create the impression that it was meeting with officials of the US Government and the UN; in the process, noisily distorting and almost bastardizing what was painstakingly designed by the LNC and its NINAS Allies to be a shock-treatment for the recalcitrant Caliphate Nigeria. 

The undeserved disgrace brought by IPOB on the NINAS Liberation Project in the International Circuit and the blood-cost to the homeland amongst the hoodwinked multitudes are still fresh in public memory. 

The purpose of this Public Note of Clarification is to invite the vigilance of the general public in what might soon be another episode of distortions that would result in avoidable bloodletting in Igbo Land just because the proprietors of the Rogue Biafra Franchise seek to inject themselves into an undertaking they lack the discipline and honesty to understand.

HURIWA CAUTIONS NIGERIA POLICE AGAINST UNLAWFUL ARRESTS IN IMO STATE

Prominent Civil rights advocacy group- HUMAN RIGHTS WRITERS ASSOCIATION OF NIGERIA (HURIWA) has for the umpteenth time warned the men and officers of the Nigeria Police,  especially the Imo State  Police command to be professionally circumspect on how they go about arresting, coercing, parading and slamming allegations on people in Imo State just as the Rights group said media trial of suspects by the police especially in the South-East of Nigeria must be discouraged and discontinued so the principle of Rule of law is upheld all the times. 

The police, HURIWA insists, are not above the law and must comply totally with the provisions of the law since it is a creation of the law.

HURIWA has also cautioned the police to understudy the South East where they are posted from all parts of the Country, so they get acquainted with the socio-cultural practices and traditions of the people of the region to avoid the unlawful arrest of members of the African traditional Religions on the disguised allegations that they are using their shrines to pray for persons perceived as being responsible for the spate of attacks that targeted strategic national security assets in the South East of Nigeria.  HURIWA said security forces have consistently attacked shrines of African traditional worshippers and have had to parade them as collaborators with the so called unknown gunmen and at the end of the day, the police have failed to get any conviction from all these ARRESTS. 

HURIWA which condemned strongly the attacks on strategic national security assets and have also condemned the killing of police operatives, also accused the police in the South East of Nigeria and especially the Imo State command of the widespread use of extrajudicial execution of suspects in their detention facilities and during their security operations in parts of Imo State just as the Rights group said the allegations that police dump unidentified corpses of young Igbo boys in the Federal medical centre in Owerri, Imo State, is a serious indictments that must be investigated by the International Criminal Court in The Hagues Netherlands so those responsible for these crimes against humanity are prosecuted for these odious and gruesome killings. 

HURIWA also faulted the parade of a so-called bomb maker by the police in Imo State just as the Rights group said from the photo evidence of what the police termed bomb making equipment which they paraded with the lone suspect as celebrated in some sections of the Nigerian media, it would seem that what the police calls ‘bomb making’ materials are some locally fabricated non lethal explosives that are used during burials to shoot 21 gun salutes to deserving members of the Igbo communities which is in Igboland is called NKPO NA ANI. 

HURIWA recalled that The Imo State Police Command on Friday said it arrested and paraded a 50-year-old-man one Simeon Onigbo, suspected to be a bomb manufacturer for the Indigenous People of Biafra, IPOB, used in attacking police stations and government facilities in the state.The State Police Public Relations Officer, PPRO, Micheal Abattam, disclosed this to newsmen in Owerri.The command said it was last Wednesday it uncovered and raided the IPOB bomb manufacturing camp at Uba Umuaka in Njaba Local Government Area of Imo State, based on the credible information that was made available to the Police.

HURIWA however faulted the police going by the photo evidence of what the police paraded as bomb making materials because from available empirical data, those materials are what are used during Igbo burials all over Igbo land just as the Rights group has demanded that the Nigerian Bar Association Imo State,   Amnesty International, National Human Rights Commission and other credible NGOs be allowed to assess those materials being peddled around in the media as bombs so the Police is not allowed to undermine the traditions and customs of the Igbo in their unscientific haste to announce a breakthrough on the disturbing trends of civil unrest in parts of the South East of Nigeria. 

“The Imo State Police Command must toe the line of professionalism and competency and avoid the hasty parading of persons and their demonisation as criminals when the courts of law is yet to make any binding pronouncements and moreover section 36(5) of the Nigerian Constitution says all suspects are innocent in the eye of the law until a contrary pronouncements by courts of competent jurisdiction are made and not through police propaganda in the media”. 

Insecurity: HURIWA backs Obasanjo’s call for state police, says existing security apparatus has failed

Civil rights advocacy group, Human Rights Writers Association of Nigeria,(HURIWA) on Friday, supported the call by ex-President Olusegun Obasanjo for state police to tackle the worsening security situation in Nigeria.

HURIWA, in a statement by its National Coordinator, Comrade Emmanuel Onwubiko, stressed that the present security architecture of the country has failed, and there is no need to live in denial about it. 

HURIWA wondered why President Muhammadu Buhari undermined the agitation for state police because he thought the Northern Moslems have upper hands in the command and control of the police and in its hierarchical structure. But unknown to President Muhammadu Buhari the overwhelming and skewed domination of the Moslem Northern Nigeria of the police and other internal security institutions did not stop the North from becoming the hotbed of Islamic terrorists because some of those in control of these security infrastructures compromised National security interest due to their extreme Islamic affiliations to terrorists and left the North to become the points for smuggling of sophisticated military grade weapons by Non State actors of Fulani ethnicity. 

HURIWA cited the many terrorist attacks in Kaduna, Katsina, Zamfara, and the entire North-East with the most recent one by the Islamic State of West Africa Province in the Ardo Kola Local Government Area of Taraba State where the insurgents claimed it bombed a drinking spot of “a gathering of infidel Christians”. Several lives were lost, and several others were injured in the explosion.

Also, HURIWA cited the abduction of 80-year-old founder of the Solid Rock Kingdom Church, Apostle John Okoriko, Akwa Ibom State, with the hoodlums demanding a ransom of N100m for his release.

HURIWA said with the rising spate of kidnapping, terrorism, banditry, bank robbery, ritual killings, rape cases, herdsmen attacks, amongst other vicious crimes, the creation of state police must be quick and the regime of President Muhammadu Buhari must be responsive about it.

According to reports, Obasanjo on Wednesday, said, “Our situation in Nigeria concerns everyone, particularly the case of terrorism. The case has gotten over the issue of community police. It is now state police. It is from that state police that we can now be talking about community police.”

Reacting, HURIWA’s Onwubiko said, “The general state of insecurity all over Nigeria and especially the crime of kidnapping and terrorism have become widespread because Nigeria is living a lie by claiming to be practicing federalism while the federating units do not legally have powers to control the security institutions.  

“Although there are some leeways that may be explored in the constitution for the states to create security vigilante but these crimes of kidnappings for ritual purposes and for ransom payments need to be stamped out. Also, terrorism must be stamped out. It is long overdue. 

“Former President Olusegun Obasanjo was right that state police is the way forward as the existing security apparatus of the country has failed just as President Muhammadu Buhari has woefully failed in his constitutional role of protection of lives and properties. 

“There has to be a police reform. Nigeria must recaliberate and restructure urgently so the states have express powers over the security of their domains.

“The executive and the legislature must join hands together and impose stiff penalty of death by firing squads on convicted kidnappers and terrorists. The judiciary should also join this effort through the speedy dispensation of justice within weeks. 

“Governors like Babagana Zulum should also stop accommodating terrorism through nonsensical and irrational amnesty granted to so-called repentant insurgents whom they claim surrender their arms after killing, kidnapping and raping thousands of innocent Nigerians. Such things as amnesty is intolerable and condemnable as it would buoy more terrorists and kidnappers to continue their heinous crimes knowing well that they would be granted amnesty later in the future. Granting amnesty to bloody terrorists without letting the law take its full course is a sabotage of the Nigerian Constitution”.

“There must be stringent measures against terrorists and kidnappers to serve as deterrent and send strong signals to the enclaves of those Jihadist enemies of Nigeria who suck the blood of Christians while the President, the Nigerian Army, the Nigeria Police Force and others look away.”

SHUT UP, NO JUSTIFICATION FOR N100 MILLION FEES: HURIWA TO APC

Prominent Civil rights advocacy group- HUMAN RIGHTS WRITERS ASSOCIATION OF NIGERIA (HURIWA) has told the national hierarchy of the All Progressives Congress (APC) to shut up and cover their faces in unmitigated shame and opprobrium for trying to create phantom JUSTIFICATION for why the All Progressives  Congress has pegged her nomination fee and expression of interest form to contest to be the Presidential Candidate of the ruling Paryy in the 2023 polls at N100 million.

HURIWA said the All Progressives Congress must be made up of leaders that have lost touch with realities and bent on selling their Presidential ticket to the highest bidder no matter how roguish or criminal way the person may have raised the exorbitant cost of the Presidential nomination fees for aspirants just as the Rights group has asked the National Publicity Secretary of the APC to shut up and stop celebrating his ignorance in trying to buy credibility for the criminal decision of his party to peg the Presidential nomination fees at N100 when the combined total of the salaries of Professor Yemi Osinbanjo for eight years is not near enough that amount. “NO decent businessman can fritter N100 million on a project he is only going to compete with others and may not enjoy the right of refunds. Only drug barons and armed robbers can run for the Presidency under the All Progressives Congress.  

HURIWA stated that the All Progressives Congress, APC, National Publicity Secretary, Felix Morka had said that the ruling party advised itself on the price tags on its nomination forms. It was reported yesterday that the APC fixed the presidential nomination form for N100m.

The Rights group recalled that the  APC announced on Wednesday that the party’s forms for Presidential ticket will be sold at N100 million, governorship N50 million; Senate, N20 million; House of Representatives, N10 million and State Houses of Assembly, N2 million.

HURIWA said: ” We beg of the grossly disrespectful PRO of the APC to stop insulting the psyche and intelligence of Nigerians by trying to provide fallacious justification for this I’ll advised decision of his party. To tell you that APC is behaving like a political gathering of daylight robbers, they are making N100 million look cheap when a Permanent Secretary in a civil service may need two life times to gross that amount as legitimate salaries. How could have insulted Nigerians in such a fashion because when asked if the price tag was in line with the present economic situation in the country, the APC Spokesperson, in an interview with Channels Television, said, “What is the current situation in the country? We still live in a country where there are people who make legitimate money.”And on whether the party is for the rich, he said, “The party is not for the rich. I just told you that for instance, any woman who wants to run for the office of the President is not paying the full amount. The youths as well.”When asked who advised the party on the price tags, he said, “The party advised the party. The party thinks that…and made the decision that the value put on these forms are justified.”

HURIWA dismissed the ruling party’s mouthpiece’s effort to try to mitigate the ethical damage and the credibility crisis that the fixing of the exorbitant cost of the Presidential nomination fees has caused his party by saying youths and the physically challenged are not expected to pay close to the high fees of N100 million,  the Civil Society Organization HURIWA said the APC is wrong to fix their ticket for Presidential  form at N100 million because it has shown the party as a collective of shylock and greedy cash chasing money guzzling political gamblers who are in politics for the cash they can loot. 

“There is no logical justification for such a crazy fees because it is even a violation of the NOT TOO YOUNG TO RUN LAW which the President signed.  HURIWA said that the high fees shows that APC is telling us that only looters can afford their ticket. Nigerians must come out and condemn this show of shame and the promotion of ostentatious appearances and inordinate wealth”. 

“Who is that youth that can afford 50% of the N100 million fees if the APC is saying youths would get a rebate? And even if youths can get that much to fritter on a nomination form, the intention and import conveyed by the APC is that politics is for the highest bidders and for those heartless enough to loot the Nation’s treasury mindlessly BECAUSE THE LOGIC OF PAYING SO MUCH TO OBTAIN A TICKET IS THAT WHEN YOU WIN THE ALL POWERFUL POSITION OF PRESIDENT OF NIGERIA, YOU EXPECT TO GAIN SO MUCH THROUGH ILLEGITIMATE AND CRIMINAL MEANS,” HURIWA affirmed.  

We Have No Other Country But Nigeria – What A Lie!

Ndidi Uwechue

20 April 2022

Nazi propaganda minister Joseph Goebbels said that if you repeat a lie often enough, people will believe it. That is how most especially politicians, the Church, influencers, NGOs and CSOs have been manipulating Nigerians to come to see a big lie as the truth. They control Nigerians with the words: “We have no other country but Nigeria!”

The truth is that countries come and countries go. The world map of countries we see today is not the same map our ancestors would have seen, say, 300 years ago. And, today’s world map will not be the same that those who will exist in 300 years from now will see. COUNTRIES COME, AND COUNTRIES GO. That is a historical fact.

What we see is that indigenous peoples of the South and Middle Belt are doing their all to rush out of Nigeria looking for education, jobs and “opportunities” abroad, while at the same time immigrant Fulani are rushing into Nigeria. We must ask the question, then whose country is Nigeria? (Notice, we are not asking to whom do the ancestral lands belong to.) Since every country is a political construction, we should know who created the political Union called Nigeria, and for whose benefit was it created?

Nigeria is called a Federation (another lie) whereas in fact, a Federation is a union of Constitutions yet Nigeria has just ONE Constitution, and that is itself a Forgery called the 1999 Constitution. What that means is that IN REALITY there is actually no Union, and thus no real country called “Nigeria” – it is all a great make-believe situation. Those who are no longer going to tolerate the lies are insisting that their people will take charge of their ancestral lands, and with their inalienable right to Self-Determination either form a viable country on their own, or form a new country with compatible neighbouring Ethnic Nations. That is, they are seeking to correct the mistake (or mischief!) of the 1914 Amalgamation. The ONE obstacle in the pathway to Self-Determination are the INDIGENOUS POLITICIANS. 

The role of indigenous politicians in maintaining the hated Nigeria that their people are fleeing abroad from, and where their people are being killed on a regular basis needs to be made ABUNDANTLY CLEAR. 

The illegitimate 1999 Constitution empowers armed Fulani to torture, maim, and slaughter unarmed and defenceless indigenous peoples. It is actually indigenous politicians who open the door to the homicidal madness of Fulani invaders by upholding and defending that known Forgery – the 1999 Constitution. If indigenous politicians did not make themselves available for this dirty work, the Fulani invaders and the Fulani Caliphate would have no powers of entry, so their conquest agenda revealed by Ahmadu Bello’s Declaration, would be impossible.

Furthermore, it is indigenous politicians who renew the life of that sham 1999 Constitution in their people’s ancestral land. That happens via elections when the declared winner swears an Oath of Office to uphold, defend, and govern by that Forgery. It is the task of indigenous politicians to push their people to Elections 2023 so as to renew the life of the disaster-bringing and death-bringing 1999 Constitution upon their people, for which they will get paid huge salaries, and life-long pensions. The treasonous behavior of indigenous politicians is compounded by the fact that they hide the truth that the 1999 Constitution has been Repudiated via the Constitutional Force Majeure declared by the non-violent people’s NINAS Movement making Nigeria a Disputed Project since 16^th December 2020, obviously hoping to wound down the clock, to help make Elections 2023 inevitable. Or, to assist the Fulani-led Central Government to declare Martial Law as advised by Attorney General Malami (a Fulani) in a leaked memo (later denied), using the unchecked widespread insecurity as a manufactured reason.

This is a case of indigenous peoples versus their politicians. Indigenous politicians are using a Forgery to capture their people inside a false Union called Nigeria. A Union that is NOT the one negotiated before Independence. That original Union was terminated in 1966 by the military coups. The current Union of Nigeria is the Caliphate’s country that welcomes Fulani from all over Africa to make it their home, while at the same time driving indigenous peoples to flee abroad by making it a hopeless and unsafe place for the true Owners of the land.

Before 1914 there was no country called Nigeria. Since the future for them is the Caliphate Agenda of conquest and Fulanization, indigenous peoples can decide that they will no longer accept unitary Nigeria. Their own politicians are the Caliphate’s agents and collaborators in their ancestral lands, so it is their politicians they must address and stop. Elections 2023 is the battleground. The life of the 1999 Constitution must therefore not be renewed by having those elections. Instead, there should be a time-bound Transitional Government where there would be Self-Determination Regional Referendums for indigenous Ethnic Nations to decide whether they want to re-commit their ancestral lands to the Union of Nigeria, or whether they want fresh, new beginnings forming new Unions with compatible neighbouring Ethnic Nations.

For indigenous peoples to flee abroad when they have their own richly endowed ancestral lands is not an effective solution to the problem of treacherous politicians who uphold a hostile 1999 Constitution. Indigenous peoples have been believing the lie that: “We have no other country but Nigeria!” Unitary Nigeria is NOT their country, and rather than abandon their ancestral lands (making it easier for Fulani to grab them), indigenous peoples at home and abroad have the power to create proper new countries for themselves by stopping their politicians and the sham 1999 Constitution that follows those traitors.

Fulani Conquest Mission, Extermination Designs Against Indigenous Peoples Of Nigeria And The Deadly Decoy Represented By The 2023 Electoral Cycle 

Tony Nnadi, 

NINAS Secretariat 

16 April 2022

The insight provided by this essay is intended to provide a backdrop to the mainly audiovisual NINAS Urgent Alert Series that began with the RUGA Alert and to guide the endangered non-Caliphate rest of Nigeria to the potent redemption pathway offered by the Joint Multi-Regional Constitutional Force Majeure activated December 16, 2020. 

Just like the 2015 electoral cycle in Nigeria Became for the Fulani, an opportunity for activating the Fulani final push for conquest and conversion of Nigeria to a Fulani country, the 2023 electoral cycle holds the one and only key to actualization of the nearly-completed Fulani conquest mission over Nigeria. 

On the one hand and unfortunately for the invaders, it is ONLY if the rest of Nigeria allow the voyage to 2023 Elections to continue beyond the first half of 2022 that the Caliphate will have an opportunity to advance its conquest mission beyond where it currently is. 

On the other hand, halting the voyage to 2023 Elections IMMEDIATELY opens up the escape route and Sovereignty Recovery Plan offered to the rest of Nigeria by the NINAS Constitutional Force Majeure. (NINAS is the Nigerian Indigenous Nationalities Alliance for Self-determination)

It follows therefore that the decision by the rest of Nigeria, particularly the South and Middle-Belt, to PROCEED WITH or HALT the voyage to 2023 Elections, will determine WHETHER  the Caliphate will succeed in its conquest and colonization plan with the mass killings that will accompany it, OR the rest of Nigeria will triumph in the push to Take Down the Caliphate-imposed Unitary Constitution of Nigeria 1999 and therefore retrieve their Sovereignty from the bondage of Unitary Nigeria, saving themselves therefore from the mass killings already looming against them.

These are perilous times for indigenous peoples, and the dangers that the Caliphate have brought upon them have been explained (together with their remedy) in our video Communiqués.

(Here is the link to the last four of the NINAS Urgent Alerts as issued on April 7, 2022 

https://ninasmovementnews.substack.com/p/ninas-urgent-alerts-3-and-battlefield?s=w ).

The Federation of Nigeria died since 1966. Guided and massively aided by the British, the Fulani who forcefully seized and operated the carcass of the dead Federation of Nigeria since 1967 as the Federal Republic of Nigeria, found ingenious ways to legitimize their stranglehold using several Military Decrees by which they radically transformed the defunct Federation of Nigeria to a tightly controlled and heavily centralized Unitary State. Specifically, the four-Region structure of Nigeria was, between 1966 and 1999, fractured into a 36-State structure, compounded in the same period by an arbitrarily imposed 774 Local Government structure which now operates as a tier of Government in further negation of an important Federation principle in which Local Governments are in the exclusive jurisdiction of the Federating Units. 

This stranglehold is heavily reinforced by a 68-Item Federal Exclusive Legislative List in the 1999 Constitution by which all security apparatus of State and key economic assets were sequestered by the rogue Federal Government which emerged since 1967. The 1999 Constitution is a wholesale carryover from the 1979 Constitution by which the many post-1966 decreed constitutional reconstructions and disfigurations were effected by the aforementioned British-Caliphate Joint Venture.

The danger many of our people are not seeing clearly, is that the Caliphate which has totally strangulated the Federating Units is now on a sweeping ethnic cleansing campaign to wipe off the indigenous peoples of Nigeria, as part of a wider scheme of transforming Nigeria into a Fulani Country. 

Having secured by a combination of brutal force and guile, effective control of all institutions of the Nigerian State across all arms of Government, covering Military infrastructure and key economic infrastructure and powers, the Caliphate went into a campaign of violently seizing absolute political control of Nigeria as a strategy for converting the defunct Federation of Nigeria into a Fulani country. (This is what has been loosely described as the FULANIZATION Agenda by those who know only aspects of what is unfolding). 

Buhari had for many years been a champion of this Fulani Agenda but the electoral cycle of Elections of 2015 which was Buhari’s fourth attempt at the Presidency of Nigeria presented an opportunity for the rapid advancement of the long-standing British-backed Fulani Agenda in Nigeria which dates back to the 1914 Amalgamation and which manifested itself in the Lancaster House Meetings of 1959, the hollow Independence of 1960, the Constitutional Disruption of May 29, 1962 against the Western Region, the Military coup of January 15, 1966, the revenge coup of July 29 1966, the Union Distress discussions and altercations of September 1966 to April 1967 including Aburi of January 1967,  the Decreed deep structural alterations of May 27, 1967, the War with Eastern Region between July 1967 and January 1970, the post-War expropriations and punitive policies that were surreptitiously expanded and configured into constitutional provisions and directive principles of State Policies to ease the full Unitarization of Nigeria and set the ground for Full FULANIZATION of Nigeria.

Just as the LNC (Lower Niger Congress) and its MNN Alliance Partners (now NINAS) which saw clearly through the Fulani schemes of the time, tried unsuccessfully between 2011 and 2014, to point the political merchants and endangered peoples of the South and Middle-Belt to the terrible danger inherent in proceeding to the 2015 Elections on the basis of the 1999 Constitution, we are again confronted with a situation in which NINAS, is seeing very clearly through the Fulani Agenda, and is shouting from the rooftops to the political merchants and endangered peoples of the South and Middle-Belt to see the terrible danger inherent in proceeding to the 2023 Elections under the 1999 Constitution. 

It is clear from all that is now known about the constitutional basis of our bondage that the choice of anyone from the South and Middle-Belt to bid for power under a Constitution that confiscates our Sovereignties and Freedoms, is a choice to remain in bondage and be in danger of extermination (for permanent Fulani land grabbing). 

Let it be clear to those from the South and Middle-Belt currently leading that bid for political power under the current Unitary Constitution of 1999, that they endanger the rest of the populace, and this will include the aspirants and candidates for elections; promoters and supporters of political parties; Church leaders preaching “get your PVC!” and mobilizing the participation and support of the populace for the 2023 Elections, and encouraging their chosen political gladiators. 

Let it also be known that when the Fulani killings and onslaught being enabled by the distractions of the already doomed 2023 Elections get closer to our spaces, all of the groups listed above as supporting the 2023 voyage of death for the South and Middle-Belt will be treated and held accountable for their roles in leading their own people to death, ruin, landlessness and utter damnation. The plea of ignorance will not avail and that is the chief purpose of this Easter Redemption Essay.

Therefore, please do visit the NINAS website at www.ninasvoice.org to review the materials behind the aforementioned redemption plan including the full text of the December 16, 2020, Constitutional Force Majeure Proclamation, and access the audiovisual materials of the NINAS Campaign (via the NINAS YouTube channel link on the website). 

If there were any doubts about the Fulani conquest designs, or the Involvement of the Buhari-led “Federal Government of Nigeria” and its Fulani-controlled Military in that murderous campaign, the demands of the terrorists currently holding passengers abducted from the Abuja-Kaduna April 2022 train attack, and the incoherent response so far by the Buhari-led Federal Government have completely cleared out such doubts.

Prayers Offered On Behalf Of The Violent Criminal Enterprise Called Nigeria Must Be An Abomination In The Sight Of God 

By Tony Nnadi, 

April 14, 2022

Each time I read about people praying for Nigeria, my mind immediately scans the atmosphere to determine whether it is out of ignorance, dishonesty, hypocrisy or naivety, for no one in his or her right mind will be praying for a violent Criminal Enterprise to prosper.

It is now beyond debate that the Federation of Nigeria died in 1966 but the carcass of that dead Federation was hijacked in 1967 by the Caliphate and forcefully kept in place under the codename: One-Nigeria, in circumstances that represent death, enslavement and bondage for the indigenous constituent components of the defunct Federation of Nigeria.

In the midst of the Massive Ethnic Cleansing Onslaught by the Invading Fulani, aided by the Fulani-controlled “Federal Government” and the Military of Nigeria, it is most horrifying to see that there are some of our brethren who are still unable to see that the man-eating monster we have now, masquerading as “Nigeria” anchored on a foundation of the fraud called “the 1999 Constitution”, is totally different from the dead Federation of Nigeria which may be the object of their prayer.

When we describe the Unitary Nigeria defined by the 1999 Constitution as a violent Criminal Enterprise, it is because the massive bloodshed by which its Fulani Caliphate proprietors enforce their will against the indigenous constituent components are no different from the methods employed by a Robbery Gang that routinely kills, maims, rapes and plunders, just as we currently witness in the Plateau, Southern Kaduna and elsewhere particularly in the Middle-Belt and Southern Nigeria. 

What makes any prayer for the current unitary Nigeria an abomination before God?

We may not have adverted our minds to it before now but let it be known to us that the Ten Commandments we read in the Bible are for Nations as they are for Men.

If we want to know why Nigeria is the sorry state it is in now, let us juxtapose Nigeria with a few prosperous countries of the world (for instance the US, Israel, Germany) and let us examine what each country is doing in obedience or disobedience of each of the Ten Commandments. 

Let us take a few specifics:

(1) “Thou shall have no other God before Me.“

While the US National motto is: “in God we trust” (meaning that in the affairs of the US, God takes pre-eminence), Nigeria on the hand declares itself a secular state; (meaning that in the affairs of Nigeria, God has no place or role and must be put aside). 

Many here may not know that Germany is the only country in the world that raises and dedicates a portion of its income to what could be compared to tithe. 

(2) “Thou shall not kill”

While many successful Countries of the world do everything to preserve human lives, Nigeria kills for sport. 

In keeping with this Commandment, most of the States in the US outlawed capital punishment from their statute books but Nigeria is everyday adding new crimes to the list of offences that carry capital punishment including armed robbery, kidnapping, drug peddling and the like. 

For a country with zero-social security for citizens, the criminals produced by the totally dysfunctional Nigerian State only grow more violent and so, blood is flowing all over the place. 

(3) “Thou shall not steal” 

Nigeria not only steals, it robs for a living. 

How, you may want to ask; It is robbery for the Caliphate Nigerian State to forcefully hijack, confiscate and commandeer the proceeds of the sale daily, of two million barrels of crude oil that belong to the Niger Delta every day or to seize by the Exclusive List in its 1999 Constitution, the limestone of Benue which it allocates to Dangote to make him Africa’s richest man, having similarly confiscated the maritime assets (ports) of Lagos and Port Harcourt which it allocated to same Dangote and Atiku (Intels) in the name of “port concessions”, but always ready to hound, criminalize and behead the Ken Saro-Wiwas, the Sunday Igbohos, and the Samuel Ortoms who attempt to protest the brazen robbery. 

(4) “Thou shall not bear false witness against thy neighbour”

The 1999 Constitution upon which Nigeria is currently constructed, begins with two egregious false claims that “we the people” willingly agreed to a Union, submitting our Sovereignties therefore, and that “we made, enacted and gave to ourselves” that Constitution. 

There is no worse false witness than that borne by the Nigerian State against the over 200 million people in the Preamble to Nigeria’s 1999 Constitution who have been shouting from the rooftops that they never agreed to any Union and that they never made any Constitution. 

Yet the Church in Nigeria keeps mute over this open contest between the truth that the Nigerian Indigenous Nationalities Alliance for Self-Determination (NINAS) is proclaiming, AND the falsehood that the Nigerian State and its proprietors are forcefully clinging to.

(5) “Honour thy father and thy mother, that thy days may be long”

Compare what the successful countries of the world are doing with their senior citizens with what Nigeria is doing with its own senior citizens, particularly pensioners, who having toiled for decades for Nigeria, are owed, humiliated and disgraced to their death by an ungrateful and unconscionable Nigerian State which celebrates the looters of pension funds.

On the other hand, in Israel, not only does the State take care of the welfare and health of its senior citizens, Israeli pupils, as a part of their school curriculum, are assigned in groups on a routine basis, to spend time with their seniors whose children and grandchildren might have left home for work in other locations and to set up their own families. Those seniors who might otherwise have been consigned to Old People’s Homes, would instead share the fascinating story of their country with the kids and so there is a mutual reinforcement of faith and belief in the country. 

If the reward for obedience to this particular Commandment is long life, do we need a clairvoyant to explain to us that the penalty for breach is a life that will be cut short whether that of the offending individual or country?

We could go on to the Tenth of the Commandments but let us for the sake of brevity stop at Five.

Is anyone still wondering why the violent Criminal Enterprise we call Nigeria is bleeding to its death and why its trapped constituent components are living in abject poverty, fear and mass misery for a country that is so profoundly endowed with both human and material resources?

The reason for this piece is to caution the Men of God who keep mute over the many atrocities of Nigeria and over the raging disputations about the fraudulent constitutional basis of Nigeria but who regularly gather people to mock God in the name of praying for Nigeria. 

Such Prayers can only be Abominations in the sight of God.

The task of the Men of God in Nigeria at this time, must begin with helping to extinguish the source of the evil in the land which is the fraudulent constitutional foundation upon which Nigeria is currently erected. 

One can only pray that the wrath of God is not visited upon those Men of God who profane the holy name of God with their abominable prayers for the violent Criminal Enterprise masquerading as “Nigeria”

THE AMERICAN VERDICT ON NIGERIA

By Emmanuel Onwubiko 

The latest compilations of human rights abuses in nations around the World as done by the State Department of the United States of America is out and as expected, that of Nigeria is as treacherous and pathetic as it has always been in over a decade. In the case of Nigeria,  it is clear that both the States and the Federal government are simply overwhelmed and are really not doing much to check these tragic human story. 

A review of the Executive summary  shows that there is not really any major milestones in terms of efforts on the part of the current federal government  and the federating units to sufficiently provide effective redress mechanisms to victims of human rights violations. 

The report noted that Nigeria is a federal republic composed of 36 states and the Federal Capital Territory. In 2019 citizens re-elected President Muhammadu Buhari of the All Progressives Congress party to a second four-year term. Most independent observers agreed the election outcome was credible despite logistical challenges, localized violence, and some irregularities.

Significantly, the United States government has nothing good to say regarding the standards of human rights protection expected from the officers and the operatives of the Nigeria Police Force. 

The Americans noted that the Nigeria Police Force, which reports to the Ministry of Police and is overseen by the Police Service Commission, is the primary civilian law enforcement agency and enjoys broad jurisdiction throughout the country. 

The Ministry of Interior also conducts security and law enforcement activities. 

The Department of State Services, which reports to the national security advisor in the Office of the President, is responsible for counterintelligence, internal security, counterterrorism, and surveillance as well as protection of senior government officials. 

The Nigerian Armed Forces, which report to the minister of defense, also share domestic security responsibilities as stipulated in the constitution in the case of insufficient capacity and staffing of domestic law enforcement agencies or as ordered by the president. 

Many states, in response to increased violence, insecurity, and criminality that exceeded the response capacity of government security forces, created local “security” vigilante forces. These local forces reported to the state governor. Civilian authorities did not always maintain effective control over the security services. There were credible reports that members of the security forces committed numerous abuses.

The USA reports that significant human rights abuses included credible reports of: unlawful and arbitrary killings by both government and nonstate actors; forced disappearances by the government, terrorists, and criminal groups; torture and cases of cruel, inhuman, or degrading treatment or punishment by the government and terrorist groups; harsh and life-threatening prison conditions; arbitrary arrest or detention; political prisoners; serious problems with the independence of the judiciary; arbitrary or unlawful interference with privacy; serious abuses in a conflict, including killings, abductions, and torture of civilians; serious restrictions on free expression and media, including violence or threats against journalists and the existence of criminal libel laws. 

Others are the serious restrictions on internet freedom; substantial interference with the freedom of peaceful assembly and freedom of association; serious government corruption; lack of investigation and accountability for gender-based violence, including but not limited to domestic and intimate partner violence, sexual violence, child, early and forced marriage, female genital mutilation/cutting, and other harmful practices; crimes of violence targeting members of national/racial/ethnic minority groups; the existence or use of laws criminalizing consensual same-sex sexual conduct between adults; and the existence of the worst forms of child labor.

The government took steps to investigate, punish, and prosecute alleged abuses by military and police forces, including the now disbanded police Special Anti-Robbery Squad, but impunity for such abuses and corruption remained a problem. These basically are the few areas captured by the Executive summary done by the USA on the situation of human rights.  But the USA left many lacunae in this summary because there were no mention of the weakness of the National Human rights institutions such as the Premier Nigerian Human Rights commission. The National Human Rights commission is so weak that it stands by whilst federal government officials like the minister of Information rides roughshod on the media rights of Nigerians and the minister has so manipulated the National Broadcasting Commission to become a tool for the dictatorial witch hunt of independent broadcasting stations. Lai Mohammed is obviously one amongst the state officials that has done significant damage to human rights promotion and protection. The Ministry of telecommunications and digital economy is another agent of human rights violations through the implementation of some outrageous policies that have resulted in the monitoring of the private communications of Nigerians. The report did not speak about the near moribund status of the Public Complaints Commission which only exists on paper because their impacts are not being felt given that millions of Nigerians with genuine complaints against several public office holders can’t get redress from the Public Complaints Commission which basically exists just to pay salaries to their staff and the board members. 

Nigerians expect that in subsequent human rights reports that the writers endeavour to name and shame Public office holders who are notorious human rights violators. This report is expected to become a springboard for the civil society community to continue to campaign for effective implementation of oversight responsibility by the National Human rights commission, the Public Complaints Commission and the relevant committees of the two chambers of the National Assembly because it is very clear that the security agencies have become enthusiastic human rights violators and these tendencies must be checked and indicted officers penalised in line with the due process of the law. Chapter 4 of the Constitution of the Federal Republic of Nigeria is extensive enough to highlight the key human rights entitlements of the citizens. Reading one of the very recent reports done by the Washington DC based Human Rights Watch, it is clear that the problems are much bigger than what the US state Department captured in their latest human rights report on Nigeria. 

The group in the USA says that attack on human rights is worsening in Nigeria, the Human Rights Watch (HRW), an international non-governmental organisation concerned with human rights matters around the globe, has said.

In its 2022 World Report, which reviews human rights trends and developments in more than 100 countries in the world, the organization said the ban on Twitter in June 2021, was indicative of worsening human rights issues in Nigeria.

President Muhammadu Buhari’s administration had suspended the operations of Twitter in Nigeria after a controversial tweet by him was deleted by the microblogging site.

The government insisted that its action was unconnected to the taking down of Mr Buhari’s tweet but was based on alleged roles of the site in fuelling insecurity, fake news, and separatist activities in the country.

Government’s attempt to rationalise the justification were not accepted, with leading democratic nations like the United States of America, the United Kingdom, and others condemning it as an attack on freedom of expression.

After seven months, the government announced the lifting of the suspension on January 12, after reaching some agreements with Twitter.

But in its 752-page report, the 32nd edition of its World Report, launched on January 13, HRW said the Twitter suspension was a sign of human rights repression in the country.

“The Nigerian government’s ban on Twitter in June, after the social media company deleted a tweet by President Muhammed Buhari for violating its rules, signaled a worsening repression of fundamental rights in the country,” the report read in part.

The report recalled that the ban was widely condemned by citizens who relied on the platform for critical social and political discourse.

Many Nigerians remained active on Twitter using virtual private networks (VPNs) to circumvent the ban even as the Attorney-General of the Federation, Abubakar Malami, threatened to anyone by passing the ban.

In a decision delivered on June 22, the ECOWAS Court in Abuja stopped the government from taking any action against anyone or media houses still using Twitter.

The worst case scenario on human rights in Nigeria is the ease with which citizens are killed by armed non State actors especially armed Fulani terrorists. One instance will suffice as a good example. One hundred and six persons have so far been buried following the attacks on communities in Plateau State, media report say. 

This is according to the Chairman of Kanam Local Government Area of Plateau State Dayabu Garga who gave an update about the renewed violence in some parts of the north-central state.

“I was present on Monday morning where we did mass burial of 106 killed and we are still picking more dead bodies in the farmlands,” he said on Thursday in an interview on Channels Television’s Sunrise Daily.

He also said there are “more than 16 people hospitalised”. Benue State has also killing fields with over 3,000 citizens slaughtered by armed Fulani terrorists in the past 7 years and no single killer is behind bars.

INEC officials involved in 1.3 million multiple voter registration must be prosecuted – HURIWA

Civil rights advocacy group, Human Rights Writers Association of Nigeria,(HURIWA) on Thursday, asked the Independent National Electoral Commission to prosecute its officials who compromised the ongoing voter registrations nationwide which led to the inclusion of over 1.3 million invalid registrations. 

HURIWA, in a statement by its National Coordinator, Comrade Emmanuel Onwubiko, also raised the alarm that there is a deliberate plot to disenfranchise millions of Southernern voters in the 2023 elections. HURIWA has asked the Chairman of the Independent National Electoral Commission to designate registration points so Nigerians without Permanent voter’s cards can present themselves for registration and be provided with their voter cards. 

Recall that INEC chairman, Mahmood Yakubu, on Wednesday, said the commission discovered 1,390,519 invalid registrations in the ongoing Continuous Voter Registration, amounting to 45 per cent of 2,523,458 completed registrations from June 2021 to January 2022.

The INEC boss cited multiple registrations, failure of Automatic Biometric Identification System, amongst others for the infractions which he said occurred nationwide, while indicting some members of staff of the Commission for the infractions.

Reacting, HURIWA’s Onwubiko said, “The revelation by INEC is not new but expected. This was why HURIWA in an earlier statement on April 8, 2022 called on the electoral umpire to clean its voter register and expunge child voters as well as dead persons from it so that the 2023 general elections won’t turn out a fraudulent one.

“Going by INEC’s timetable, the Presidential and National Assembly elections would hold on Saturday 25th February 2023, followed by the Governorship and State Assembly elections on Saturday 11th March 2023. This is less than a year ahead.

“However, INEC should be more prepared and stop hibernating without doing much to clean up the National Voter Register to ensure that all eligible Nigerians who wish to be registered are captured and automatically issued their PVCs.

“If over 1.3 million voter registrations are marred with multiple registrations, amongst other infractions, then, Nigerians need to query the validity and truthfulness of previous elections.

“INEC should ensure that its officials culpable in the invalid registrations are fished out and prosecuted, they should be named and shamed; they are enemies of Nigeria’s democracy and peace and so therefore they and their paymasters and politicians should be exposed and prosecuted.

“Apparently, there is a deliberate plot to disenfranchise millions of Southern voters in 2023 but this game plan should not be allowed to manifest.

“INEC should speedily work on the efficiency of its Automatic Biometric Identification System, electronic voters machines and other technologies that are to be introduced or already used in the last Anambra election but did not yield maximum results. 

“INEC should conduct security audits of Nigeria and put in place strategies with the security agencies on how to prevent security challenges that always come up during elections. 

“So much depend on the 2023 elections and INEC should be up and doing so as not aid and abet any fraud.
