Bauchi is bleeding.
Katsina is mourning.
Kebbi is grieving.
Zamfara is under siege.
Benue isn't safe. So is Plateau.

Families are being torn apart by bandits and terrorists.

Children are orphaned. Mothers are burying their sons.

Villages are burning.

Yet, the political class is already consumed with campaigns, alliances, and 2027 permutations.

What is the value of power if the people are not safe?

What is democracy without security?

What is leadership without responsibility?

Northern Nigeria cannot continue like this. We cannot normalize mass killings. We cannot normalize silence. We cannot normalize excuses.
Lives must matter more than elections.

History will remember who spoke up; and who stayed silent.

@NigeriaStories Surah Al‑Imran (Chapter 3), Verse 173.

“Those to whom people said, ‘Indeed, the people have gathered against you, fear them.’ But it [only] increased them in faith, and they said, ‘Sufficient for us is Allah, and He is the best Disposer of affairs.’’

Why We Must Challenge the Single-Story Narrative of Nigeria’s Historical Conflicts and Tensions

“I know there are also Muslims killed but…” Please stop right there. That line is not the insight you imagine it to be. It does not only diminish the tragedy of other groups, it silences the very point being made—that the violence we have experienced in Nigeria is not one-sided and that both Christians and Muslims are victims. If you cannot move beyond that prefatory excuse, that bigotry packaged as empathy, then it is nobler to say nothing at all.

There is nothing neutral about silence in the face of falsehood, especially one that targets the statehood of Nigeria by foreigners with unmistakable agendas to stir anarchy. To stand aside, refusing to challenge propaganda that singles out one community as victim while erasing another, is to give cover to those who spread it. What is often passed off as impartiality is, in fact, complicity. The refusal to contest one-sided narratives, even when they are demonstrably false, does not absolve anyone; it deepens distortion and strengthens the hand of those who thrive on disorder.

The coordinated assault waged against the Nigerian state is provoked by those who have failed to get Nigeria to do their bidding. Media mercenaries, hired by sponsors who no longer conceal their intentions, are shaping a story designed to fracture our country and set neighbour against neighbour, Christians against Muslims, and vice versa. Their method is to reduce complex conflicts into sectarian headlines, erase Muslim victims from the tally, and brand Nigeria a land of selective persecution.

Those who feign neutrality in the face of such a campaign are no different from the propagandists they decline to confront. Some of these self-styled neutralists, in truth, betray their covert sympathy for the single-story narrative. To watch figures such as Bill Maher declare that only Christians die here, while ignoring the countless Muslims buried by the same violence, and then to say nothing, is not neutrality. It is quiet endorsement. If you refuse to clarify, to challenge, or to set the record straight when disinformation spreads, you should not be surprised when others step forward to do so.

It must also be stated clearly that to challenge the narrative of one-sided persecution, as we do, does not in any way diminish the existence of persecution where it occurs. Rather, it demands a fuller picture of conflict, one that recognises the breadth of human suffering and opens the path to solutions that unite rather than divide.

Even those who dislike their government ought to recognise that a conspiracy against the state, one that seeks to collapse order and plunge society into anarchy, is a threat to all. The duty to resist disinformation is not about defending a party or an administration. It is about defending a country from being undone by lies.

I have spoken out because I can. My background as a public commentator and foreign policy analyst, long before entering government, gives me both the reach, the nuance, and the responsibility to counter distortions that misrepresent the realities and complexities of conflict in Nigeria. It is absurd to dismiss Aljazeera, where I once published fierce critiques of Nigeria, as a mere Muslim outlet, while hailing Fox News or CNN as neutral ground. Such claims expose more about prejudice than about platforms.

Silence in this moment is not an option. To allow opportunists to write only one side of the story is to condemn innocent people to perpetual misrepresentation. Those who insist on neutrality, while knowing full well the dangers of unchecked propaganda, are collaborators, witting or unwitting, in a sectarian agenda against Muslims and against the fragile peace of Nigeria.

@femia86 @Mallam_jabeer @officialABAT Share Buhari’s list so we can draw comparisons. The reality in Nigeria today is disheartening, as it offers no path toward progress. It’s unfortunate we blindly defend our own, forgetting that no part of this country can thrive/remain as strong if it isolates itself from the rest
