“THEY ARE NIGERIANS, GIVE THEM A CHANCE TO REPENT” – But IPOB/ESN Are Shot on Sight. (This Is the Bias That Will Destroy the South East.)
The Statement That Says It All
On June 14, 2026, Nigeria’s Chief of Defence Staff (CDS) made a statement that should chill every South Easterner to the bone:
“Bandits: They are Nigerians. It is better to give them a chance to repent than killing them.”
Let that sink in.
Bandits: men who have massacred villages, kidnapped schoolchildren for ransom, raped women in broad daylight, and turned entire communities in the North-West into ghost towns are Nigerians deserving of a second chance.
But what about IPOB members? What about ESN operatives? What about any young Igbo man who raises a flag or organizes for self-defense?
They are not given a chance to repent. They are not called “Nigerians.” They are declared terrorists, proscribed, hunted, extrajudicially killed, and their bodies dumped in forests.
This is not counter-insurgency. This is ethnic bias dressed in uniform.
The Bandits’ Body Count
Let us not forget what these “Nigerians who deserve a chance” have done:
· Kuriga, Kaduna (March 2024): Over 280 schoolchildren kidnapped. Many still missing.
· Gidan Bakuso, Sokoto (June 2024): Over 50 villagers killed, homes burned.
· Tegina, Niger (2021): Over 150 children abducted from Islamic school.
· Birnin Gwari, Kaduna (2022-2025): Constant attacks, over 1,000 civilians killed.
· Zamfara (2021): Over 200 students taken from Government Science College, Kagara.
And yet, the CDS says: “They are Nigerians. Give them a chance.”
The Dangerous Implications for the South East
If the military’s official posture is to negotiate with and rehabilitate bandits while annihilating IPOB/ESN, then the conclusion is inescapable:
The Nigerian state does not see the South East as part of Nigeria deserving of the same “chance” given to northern bandits.
What happens when these “repentant” bandits, now armed and trained under federal amnesty, are deployed or drift into the South East? The same military that gave them a chance will now call them “vigilantes” or “civilian JTF” and they will be authorized to hunt our people.
We have seen this playbook before. Cattle routes became grazing routes. Grazing routes became armed herder militias. Armed herder militias now get amnesty. And the South East is left unprotected.
Where is his chance to repent? Where is his “they are Nigerian” recognition?
Your bias is not just hypocritical. It is genocidal in its implications. You are telling the North: we will forgive your killers. And you are telling the South East: we will not forgive your defenders.
The CDS did not accidentally say bandits deserve a chance. He spoke the official position of a state that has always seen northern violence as “manageable” and eastern self-defense as “terrorism.”
They will give bandits uniforms, starter packs, and new names: repentant.
They will give our sons bullets, body bags, and new names: unknown gunmen.
This is the bias. This is the double standard. And if we do not wake up, this is how we will die , one propaganda headline at a time.

So where is Hausa or the Fulani’s own Greener pasture Locations? Silly that has logs in his both eyes and talking Rubbish online! There is no comparison, where are from with this fictitious name De. Alhaji Kowope Cole! My you are AI generated!
A Yoruba Man’s Greener Pasture Is UK, USA & Canada
An Ibo Man’s Greener Pasture Is Lagos & Any Country He Can Sell Illicit Drugs Or Fake Products
They rigged the election to achieve that, that election was massive won by LP that PO ran under! Not of any debate! Take it to the bank, even those involved with that has spoken out and apologize to Nigerians!
Why did Nigerian Christians allow a Muslim-Muslim ticket?
In a supposedly secular country under the 1999 Constitution, how did we end up with both the President and Vice President being Muslims?
OIC and the myth of islamisation in Nigeria
By taking Nigeria into the OIC in 1986, Ibrahim Babangida officially turned Nigeria into an Islamic state. Simply by the act of the application for OIC membership, Babangida tampered with the secularity of the Nigerian State. That unilateral decision should be reviewed because it violates Section 10 of the Constitution.

K!lling Of Christians In Nigeria By Islamic Terrorists: “We Terrorists Can Never Be Caught By The Nigerian Government, The Military, The Police, Or The DSS. Only God Can Catch Us.
The Fulanis terrorists leader tells the Nigeria government.
You don’t need to waste your saliva on this matter, it will still hunt them, if they like they should send them to the South, will be the worse case for them! We just they watch this Night mere called Nigeria!
“On behalf of the Good people of borno state and Nigeria we have forgiven them. And they have swear by the Quran not to go back to any form of violence”
~ Official says as rehabilitated T€rrorist are reintegrated to society.
A country that rehabilitates terrorists has no future.
One year ago, Fulani Islamic terrorists stormed Yelwata, Nigeria, slaughtering more than 200 Christians.
Most were women and children sheltering at a local Catholic mission.
Today, we remember the martyrs. The world must not forget the Christian genocide in Nigeria.
The Nigerian military is taking credit for “rescuing” some 400 hostages released by Boko Haram in Ngoshe.
That is a lie, of course. Here is the word from eyewitnesses on the ground.
Soldiers delivered ransom to Boko Haram, said to be somewhere between 3 and 5 billion naira.
Only Muslim hostages were released. The Christian women and children remain in captivity.
They were being held in a village named Gavva at the shadow of Mandara Mountain, three kilometers away from the military base in Ngoshe.
That is not a rescue. That is complicity, and a wealth transfer to their terrorist comrades. It is also proof and a continuation of the ongoing Christian genocide.
This is video of the Muslim women and children being returned.

I stand to be corrected, Ijaw girls/ladies/women, when God direct you to a Good One, they tends to be the best! My 88 years old mother said this to me when I was getting married! What Onarie did, she will do even more! HE you are correct, bad leaders are products of Bad families!
NOTHING IS PERMANENT!

"When I See Public Office Holders Misbehaving, I Used To Have This Thought, "Probably They Do Not Have a Good Wife/Husband or a Good Marriage"
As governor, I was on call 24/7 sometimes.
I got very angry and could take my anger on anyone.
So, my chief of protocol bore the brunt one day.
I had a reception for guests and he placed them in rooms, not the way I would have done it, but he didn’t do anything wrong.
He used his own judgment.
I would have done it the other way, but I over reacted.
I spoke very harsh to him.
While I was doing this, my wife walked in and didn’t say a word.
She came in, did some other things in my office and left.
When I got back home in the evening, I’d forgotten about it. It’s just a normal event in the day.
My wife went on her knees in front of me, looked straight into my eyes like a penitent sinner and said, "The way you spoke to this guy was wrong and we have to go and apologise to him."
She said I had no reason to speak to anyone like that.
I said, "What! He did this..." and she interrupted me, "Yes, I heard everything.
"The way you would have done it was different, but he didn’t do a bad thing. He used his discretion. So, what are you going to do? You have destroyed his self esteem. Tomorrow, he is not going to do anything discretionally.
He would wait for orders and then you will get irritated at that. You have made him lose his self-confidence and that is wrong. You need to go and apologise to him. Why should you speak to someone like that? Because you are governor?"
I ignored her, stood up and went into the bedroom, still fuming. As she will always do if she wants to have her way, my wife followed me into the bedroom and went on her knees again to plead the cause of a man as if he had begged her to plead his case.
"You have to do it this night and not tomorrow" because I kept saying I would do it tomorrow.
Onarie, still on her knees and almost in tears, insisted and said, "No, tonight. That man is not going to sleep well and so you do not have the right to sleep well when he was not sleeping well."
Clearly defeated, I got into the car and we drove to his house.
His gate man froze when he discovered I was the one. In his confusion, he did not know how to properly open the gate till Onarie told him to take two deep breaths before attempting to open the door again!
We were ushered into the living room by an equally confused maid who had to stumble over chairs.
His wife turned in.
They were about to go to bed.
She was in her night gown.
She saw me and was scared with the expression of, ‘Okay, you have come to fire my husband finally’.
The guy came downstairs, petrified as my wife and I walked into the private living room.
The wife wanted to get up and leave.
I told the guy I came to apologise for my rude and harsh behaviour towards him and I told him am sorry.
They all got emotional but I got relieved.
It was like a heavy load had been taken off me.
I still get upset with things going up wrong, but I don’t get to a point I feel I am too big to say sorry.
And am learning to treat people better.
You can be referred to as "Your Excellency" today, but, for the best, it will only last eight years.
Senator?
Minister?
It is not forever!
Permanent Sec? It is still not permanent and we all know it's just a title and not a life long position.
Director?
CEO?
DG?
etc.
Life is a stage, a platform for services unto God.
So let everyone take heed. Forgive and have regard for Human beings"

Goodmorning @ChibuikeAmaechi from Adams Oshiomhole.
@aime_mwizaa Why should you be looking for that man? Are you not a human being, can’t you work and earn a better leaving than look for a man to care for you without asking for sex? Are you by any way calling God a fool? He made you so beautiful that man will admire and cherish you for that!
Step one. I hold a briefing.
Step two. Ribadu rushes to Washington and offers them a juicy target for damage control.
Step three. Trump bombs the terrorists.
It’s happened twice now.
Do you think I should keep doing briefings?
