Don’t let them change the narrative.
Oyo kidnappers are not political actors, they are RELIGIOUS actors.
They demanded for Religion laws, not political party law.
Retweet to expose the truth.
If you study history well. You'll know that there's a agenda behind terrorism either via resources or Islamic rules. This is how Afghanistan Taliban started before they took over the country. Imagine a terrorist giving govt conditions to ligalize Sharia law. They beheaded a person on live camera. Ignore those stupid Muslims saying terrorism isn't part of Islam. They know the truth but what did you expect from a brainwashed idiot.
As long as people like this man are allowed to walk the streets free, all in the name of religious freedom....
How do you stand before microphones to say that other Nigerians whose religions are different from yours should be beheaded? And you are saying it with confidence?
What else is called terrorism?
@PoliceNG@OfficialDSSNG
The South-East still covers for IPOB. The Army released video proof, yet they got angry. The North pampers its own, and the SE does the same. What Boko Haram is to the North, IPOB is to the SE. One thing is certain: Yoruba people will never pamper terrorism. We call it out.
CAF remains an epitome of disgrace to Africans and African football, any trophy that wasn't won the pitch after the final whistle is invalid. Morocco had their chance and lost, Senegal ARE and WILL remain the rightful winners of the 2025 AFCON tournament. The world saw their efforts and what played out.
Sadio Mane's effort will not be wasted, nor will that of his teammates.
Anyone who supports this biased decision should be ashamed of themselves.
I like the fact that all of us will eventually face DEATH one day, unexpected, and all the money accumulated over the years will be completely useless, all the properties acquired worthless, and no manner of prayer will save anyone from judgement. Nothing like purgatory, and your name be it big or small, won't count when you reach the afterlife.
People seem to forget that a lot, especially when they feel accomplished. Don't worry, it's only a matter of time, we will all answer that call.
Your great-grandfather was an Anglican, your grandfather was an Anglican, your father was an Anglican, and you are an Anglican. Maybe your child went to university and became born again, in the evangelical tradition. Again, that is an offshoot of what was done to African American enslaved people in America.
The Baptist movement and the brand of African American Pentecostalism, which now thrives in much of Sub-Saharan Africa, started in the slave plantations.
And now, today, many Africans still do not want to reason and are being manipulated to hate Islam and Muslims on the basis of religion.
If I may ask, what religion? The one handed down to you by your colonisers?
As a Black African, you have more in common with another fellow Black African, or even African American or Afro-Caribbean, irrespective of their religion, whether that person knows it or not.
You must be emancipated in your kind and transcend religious divides, and accept your fellow Black African.
Do not allow anyone from outside your continent, no matter how important they are, to gaslight you against your fellow Black African.
Some of these people might have slightly altered their tactics and methods, but their goals have not changed.
May I remind you, as a Nigerian, that until people from outside Africa meddled in a country not directly abutting Nigeria, yet still close enough to Nigeria, the Sahel was reasonably stable, and Nigeria did not have a Boko Haram crisis.
And when that country's leader was killed and their nation destabilised, leading to the radicalisation of various groups in the Sahel, Nigeria was left high and dry when we needed weapons to contain the resultant crisis, to the extent that we were reduced to sourcing weapons from the black market.
Now, look at it again. The problem (destabilisation of an African country I will not mention) came from outside Africa. But the reaction and solution were left to us in Africa.
What should that tell you? Nobody can love Africa better than Africans. Nobody!
We, as Africans, must hang together or we will hang separately.
Please transcend artificial separations and realise that we are one Black African people, irrespective of what religion, which invariably came from outside Africa, that we practice.

Africa, Do Not Let Them Use Religion To Divide You: You Are An African First, Before You Are A Muslim, Christian Or Whatever
One of the things Sub-Saharan Black Africans have to bear in mind is that EVERY Christian church or missionary society that came into Africa during the period of colonisation was part and parcel of the colonial process of politically dominating Africa and economically exploring our continent.
None of them came to Africa for the good of Africa, though they did do some good in Africa.
Their main purpose of entering Africa was first to stop the spread of Islam and create Christian allies. The secondary reason was to acculturate the colonised Black Africans to the particular denomination of their colonisers.
The third goal of sending missionaries to colonised territories by European nations was to divide large countries along denominational lines, so that, while those they chose to be Christians would in fact be Christians, they would not all be Christians of the same denomination.
They wanted a situation whereby some would be Anglicans, others would be Catholics, and yet others would be Baptists, Methodists, and so on.
Ask yourself why Britain, which was 96% Protestant (mostly Anglican) in 1900, would officially permit Catholic Mission societies to proselytise in parts of Nigeria. This is something that they would not have dreamt of doing in their own country at that time!
And then they gave the Church Missionary Society of the Anglican Church mandates to do the same in other areas, and carved out other areas for Baptists, Methodists, and other denominations of European Christendom.
It was not to Christianise your ancestors. It was to make them subservient to the European strain of Christianity and then keep them divided.
That was the only way a country like Britain could dominate a geographical area like Northern and Southern Nigeria, with a combined population of 18 million people in 1914, using just around 2,000 British troops.
They could not be our masters if we had mastered unity!
And you still see that in a state like Anambra till today, where the Governorship is rotated between Catholics and Anglicans.
But who made the people of Anambra Catholics and Anglicans? It was not by a conscious decision of their ancestors. It was the result of a British colonial clerk who said Catholics go here and no farther, while you Anglicans go there and stop at this point.
What is true for Anambra is true for almost every state in Southern Nigeria, and many in Northern Nigeria, such as Benue, Taraba, and Plateau states.
Yes, these missionaries opened schools in colonised Africa, but the challenge is that these schools taught colonised Africans only to read, not to reason.
And if a colonised African began to reason independently, the system dealt with him the way it dealt with pupils who were punished for speaking their own native languages in schools, which were branded 'vernacular'.
These missionaries travelled throughout Sub-Saharan Africa, translating Bibles into local languages. But they never translated a single science or philosophy book into any Black African language.
You see. They wanted you to read, not to reason.
Take a look at the attached photo, for example. You can see a missionary showing his European king's image to his Black African charges.
Now, tell me, what does that have to do with God or Godliness? Or even religion?
This is not a photo created by Artificial Intelligence. This is a real historical image photoshopped in Kenya circa 1920.
What is the point I am making?
It is time the Black African starts reasoning and not just reading.
First of all, other than Ethiopian Orthodox Tewahedo Christians and Egyptian Coptic Christians, if you are a Christian in Sub-Saharan Africa, with few exceptions, your religion and denomination were handed to you by a European colonial clerk.
@Maya_leeke Becos Allah only understands Arabic Qur’an 14:4 . So therefore Allah doesn’t understand Yoruba and any Yoruba person worshipping Allah is worshipping a foreign god
CHRISTIANITY aka ESIN IKONILERU was imposed on us, not inherited. It was used as a tool to rename us, reshape us, and remove us from our own land. How do you make an African Christian? You break his memory and teach him to kneel before what displaced him. Ẹ jì má sùn.
#BackToTheRoots
Dear Tolu,
Thank you for your feedback. One thing you have to realise is that Yeshua (Jesus) never wrote a book. Other than the original Mark (Mark 1 to Mark 16:8), all of the other books written about Him were books by anonymous writers.
And Mark 16:9 to the end is also by an unknown writer. Those portions were not in the original book of Mark.
Nobody knows who wrote the books of Matthew and John. Please fact-check me. If I am wrong, I vow to pay you ₦1 million.
These books were attributed to Matthew and John some 200 years after their discovery.
Paul NEVER met Yeshua (Jesus) while He lived on Earth.
Luke was an amateur historian who interviewed people who had met Yeshua. He himself had never met Yeshua. He was writing for the Nefertiti of a Roman official named Theophilus. It was not meant as a book for the general public. Yet, look how he described Yeshua:
"Jesus grew in wisdom and stature, and in favour with God and man.” - Luke 2:52.
Notice that Luke said Yeshua grew in wisdom and favour with God. Not God the Father. Just plain God.
The terms God the Father, God the Son and God the Holy Ghost are MANMADE ideas.
If Yeshua were God, why and how would He grow in wisdom and favour with God?
That defeats the whole essence of the Trinity, which implies that God is Omniscient.
Why would an Omniscient Being grow in Wisdom? That is contradictory to Omniscience, which means that you know everything that is already to be known.
You will notice that none of the Gospels gives an account of Yeshua's life from about 13 to 30, because they were written by people who did not know Him personally and only met Him or heard of Him after his 30th birthday.
This is why His genealogy in Matthew (1:1–17) and again in Luke (3:23–38) is not in complete agreement. Please fact-check me.
I do not contend with those who believe Yeshua (Jesus, Nabi Isa) is God. It is their opinion. But to me, He was a Jewish Rabbi, who was evidently sent by God to show humankind the way.
Those are my beliefs, and I do not force them on others, including my own children.
Instead of the Trinity, they will prefer to believe in Eledumare through Ifá religion and Ìṣẹ̀ṣe practices.
Thanks again, and may God bless you.
