Those people who burnt your house were not Boko Haram, they were Fulani militias

Not every militia group is Boko Haram

Most of the groups attacking the Middle Belt are of Fulani origin, Boko Haram consists of mostly Kanuris

I lived in Plateau during this period and witnessed this first hand and can attest to the truth in this

Militias mostly of Fulani origin came into the city on September 7, 2001 and went house to house burning and pillaging.

What initially begun as disagreements over political appointment, saw an influx of Fulani fighters into streets of Jos North

I saw these militias with my eyes as they wore partial military regalia
Some would wear the military trouser and just an ordinary shirt, while others would wear the military top but just a normal trouser

That was my first time seeing non state actors on the rampage
They targeted native houses in Jos North which had a considerable settler population in a bid to drive the natives out of the local government

Lots of University of Jos staff who used to live in a predominant settlement of Angwan Rogo (along Bauchi Road) were murdered while a few others were lucky to have fled

Those people went on a rampage for almost 2weeks without adequate security intervention. Dead bodies littered the streets.
A state of emergency was declared in Plateau for 6 months while the Governor was sacked replaced with a military administrator (Chris Ali) by the Obasanjo administration.
The Obasanjo government also desolved the Plateau state legislature at the time due to those events

It was an unforgettable experience because September 11 happened a few days after which is a historic event

Why we knew it was tactical to displace the natives was that, there were no attacks on governmental residential areas that housed Southerners and other natives
The target was displacement of natives who owned private houses and lands

It was so bad that what initially begun in Jos North soon spread to other local governments where there were settlers

The worst happened in Wase, Shendam and Lantang
I have posted numerous times about the proliferation of arms in the lower plateau during the period by these Fulani militias

What was initially ethnic between the natives of Plateau and the Hausa and Fulani settlers turned religious as these settlers demanded that the native Muslims choose a side and used religion to blackmail native Muslims (by asking them to prove that their new faith is more important than their old tribal loyalties)

You see this part of the comment you made about literacy, I will warn you never to in your life, tag me to any post similar to this

Because this conversation is happening in my sisters comments, I will keep it respectful

I am speaking to my sister and I will appreciate if if you keep out of the discourse.

Have a nice day

@A_Abby_Abi I promised to provide the source

[Ndi Kato @YarKafanchan]

It is not just influencers. They have bot farms. And their leader is WELL AWARE of it. I thought it was just their youth doing it on their on their own till I found PO's second in command, Oseloka following a newly minted bot handle. We are dealing with dangerous people here.

[Patrick Anum @patrickanum]

Thank you for your response

And I understand and respect your personal conviction my sister

I have always believed in not forcing my views on others which still stands till now.

I will support you in your journey.

I on the other hand have opted against that level of toxicity.

On the matter of this being organized, a former spokesperson to him has said he is aware, (now that is the closest person to the individual)
and a core members of his team was found following one of the bots.

Thirdly, Wole Soyinka said out of personal experience that, when he complained in the past about the attacks, one call was put in, the attacks died instantly.

So I believe that the coincidences are too many. And there is nothing like too many coincidences.

So I believe it comes straight from the top to the bottom, especially on the Nasir Elrufai matter.

That was organized and in the past, I have seen more organization to stop these attacks on former allies, etc

Now on these other ones, like generic denigration against Middle Belt people, that to my knowledge might not be sanctioned but it is clear that those machinery is still used for these purposes

Regardless, I will not in good conscience be able to tell my people to put their support there as I did in 2023.

I believe that what the Nasir Elrufai situation showed us is that, these people are looking for serfs and not allies

They pick any partner and we should have no say or raise no concern, just fall in line or be defamed as “compromised or bought”

This was the strategy that was sanctioned from the top to bottom as at mid 2025!

I am not stating this to make you change your mind, far from it! I want you to support your candidate and place your ballot in the elections

Long live the Middle Belt!

[Patrick Anum @patrickanum]

@jiggy_dfb When it’s a bot farm and organized group of people attacking us smh

We clocked it since

[Patrick Anum @patrickanum]

Abby is an Obidient, she has done tremendous work for Peter Obi in Plateau State

A sweet soul who has never had issues with anyone, but go to her comments here and see

You guys turn against even your own with insults, then blame others

My Middle Belt people continue to be dehumanized and all for what???

[Abby Abi - Ms. Sweet Soul @A_Abby_Abi]

This is specifically for South East people who claim to want Peter Obi to be President.

If you really love Peter Obi, you need to really stop with your vile comments on people who don't support him

No one wants to be on the same side with ignorant & vile people

Okonkwo, his spokesman, an Igbo decamped but Middlebelt people cannot do so without you insulting all of us and wishing us all death?

Stop acting like fools please.

[Patrick Anum @patrickanum]

@obainoclinton You aren’t from our region, maybe u should sit this one out

Focus on your region and il focus on mine

[Patrick Anum @patrickanum]

I disagree with you here my dear sister.

If the attacks on Middle Belt were random, by one or two persons, I will agree with your position. But these are bot farms

They are bot farms used and managed to unleash terror on whoever dares offer a contrary opinion

Now bot farms could be used for good, to trend policies and plans of a candidate, but what has it been turned to, a source of terror!

You yourself have been on the receiving end of these attacks!

Now I have always been a regional person.
The constant denigration of Middle Belt people is what is particularly concerning to me

It got so bad that Middle Belt people were scared to identify as Middle Belt because these people will insult them with Fulani attacks or;
tell them about the civil war and Yakubu Gowon at the slightest instance of disagreement

When bot farming is affecting the Middle Belt struggle directly, we have to step in!

If it is coordinated attacks unleashed against our region, with proper knowledge from the leadership, (we saw a top member of their inner circle following a freshly created bot) I will attach it below, then it is no longer about candidates but about protecting our region

For months, these people have trended “Middle Belt influencers have been paid” to destroy our names and credibilities.

If they have the names of these influencers and evidence of payment, it would have helped us if they shared this evidence to help us even understand those who have been compromised or not,
but they have nothing, just conspiracies to destroy our struggle.

Two people joined the APC and it became all of us!

Now, I know close to 50 Middle Belt influencers. But because they had an issue with two, it became all of us.

They didn’t distinguish between I, Catia Kyen, Timmitom, Eeva, etc
It was “Middle Belt influencers are in the APC.

You cannot seek that we distinguish between their candidate and them, when it’s them, but lump us all in one category.

Now, to the main issue, there has been lots of hateful messaging towards Middle Belt people from Igbos regarding Fulani killings. It has been happening for years on this app.

We all have chosen to ignore it because the priority was Fulani killers in the hope that it will reduce but it has gotten worse.

Words like “it is karma for civil war” “Fulani will keep killing them for their role in 1966” is everywhere.

Is it all Igbos that do it, no.. Are there many comments doing that on Facebook and X? Yes

Is that showing hatred, it is. There is no way someone writes that in comments about Fulani that show love.

Now have there been Igbos who have been vocal about Fulani atoricities, yes they are. But it doesn’t take away anything from the ones that have been insulting us and wishing us death

Now let’s move to the Obidients. The first time this thing started was regarding Nasir Elrufai.

When we raised issue with it, they said we were paid.
Rather than address the issue of Nasir Elrufai in the ADC, their strategy was to concoct lies about us.

That was the first time we saw the effect of their bot farming

It was organized, at first they were silent on the Nasir Elrufai matter, then all of them started saying the same thing

“Middle Belt influencers have been paid” “It’s a paid gig”

What was a political issue, they wanted to destroy our names and reputations on this app

Never join a party where they do not listen to your concerns but suppress it with lies

The conversation is no longer basically about “insults” it has morphed.

Even the last months, because Zariyi Yusuf left to the APC, just go to his comments and see wat was being written about our people!

Mind you, they have leaders in the APC, yet it never extends to the denigration of their people so why is our own different?

Something that was about one person, u have made it about all of us! When Peter Obi was refused in Benue by the Governor, I joined in calling out the Benue State Governor.

[Abby Abi - Ms. Sweet Soul @A_Abby_Abi]

All I know is, neither APC 50k nor vile Peter Obi supporters will stop me from voting for Peter Obi

As a Peter Obi supporter, you need to focus on biz

👉 You, stop insulting people

👉 And you, don't let insult from faceless people blind you from the bigger picture

[Patrick Anum @patrickanum]

@reduxrxn Stupid bot your mama no go die well

[Patrick Anum @patrickanum]

@PatrioticNige12 @nanbyensalmang Fuck out of my comments

[Abby Abi - Ms. Sweet Soul @A_Abby_Abi]

I genuinely understand and respect your position and disagreement.

As you know, I've always held you in very high regard, and I do not take your feedback lightly.

However, my support for Peter Obi is borne out of personal conviction. I have done my reading and analysis and come to the conclusion that, as long as I'm voting, I'm voting for someone I believe in. In this instance, Peter Obi is who I believe in.

And honestly, I share most of your concerns. it's difficult and really devastating to support someone when some of his own people are out there insulting my own people. Yesterday, I had to point-blank call out South-East people because of that.

What I have decided to do is think: based on all I know about Peter Obi, he himself will not organise people to insult the Middle Belt because that would be stupid. Whoever genuinely loves Peter Obi should not be doing that either. That has left me with the conclusion that the people doing this are either ignorant bigots who think they're supporting their person but lack an understanding of what politics entails, or they're paid by people who hate Peter Obi to decimate his support by creating hatred and division.

I do recognise that there is a possibility of organised attacks, as you have suggested. I saw some of the screenshot you shared and they are scary. If there is evidence that people within the political structure are involved in coordinating or encouraging these attacks, that deserves to be investigated and addressed.

There no world in which my support of Peter Obi will mean that I defend or even support the callousness and hatred of anyone simply because they're Obidients. No one should be above accountability.

The only difference for me is, I also think we must be careful not to automatically attribute the actions of these people to the candidate himself without establishing that connection.

In that case, I will not punish Obi or myself because someone paid for bot farms to spread hatred. And unless there are other viable reasons why not, I'll continue to support Obi while actively fighting anyone who tries to denigrate my people, no matter who the person is.

I just personally refuse to be terrorised out of my convictions or be insulted.

The inability of some Igbos to distinguish between who the true allies and who the opponents are, Gowon vs Middle Belt, and our adamant refusal to accept El-Rufai is such a disappointment but no surprise.

So, personally, I choose to distinguish between Peter Obi and them because I will not be brought down to the mud of their foolish hubris.

For one, if nothing drastic is done, “Fulani will keep killing until they seize the South. If they think modern Jihadists will be content with just the North, they're in for a rude awakening.”

In the end, wherever we run to, Nigeria is our home unless it breaks apart. Until then, I really just want someone who's more likely to put Nigerians as a collective above his selfish interests, and I believe that Peter Obi is that person within this politicking cycle.

The other alternative for me is apathy, and I am trying hard not to fall into that.

[Patrick Anum @patrickanum]

@EricChimara I’m speaking to my sister, why is it a problem to u form another region

[Patrick Anum @patrickanum]

@Feltechsoft See this useless burner account, if u get mind, let your owner come and respond to me

E no go better for your papa and your mama, dem go kpai by next week

[Patrick Anum @patrickanum]

@Chuxomax Fuck off, I’m speaking to my people not u lizard

[Patrick Anum @patrickanum]

But guess wat, I saw Obidients say, let Fulani clear all of them.

Or “ I will never speak about Killings here, let Fulani deal with them”

It gets to a point where we will get tired of all of this.

We all have chosen to ignore it because the priority was Fulani killers in the hope that it will reduce but it has gotten worse.

It’s a conversation we will have to address no matter how long we ignore it

I’ve been ignoring it since 2020, this is my breaking point! Yours may come in the future but we will all have to discuss this matter

I don’t even care about APC, PDP, LP ADC politics because I believe that the Middle Belts problems can only be solved via restructuring and through a sovereign national conference

But these people have become so extremist that they have dragged me into the group of enemies they have.

I have been insulted denigrated and my name tarnished. Defamation is more serious and no longer about insults any more

People like their influencers and leaders have not cautioned all these people. They caution their members on every other thing, except this one!

Lots of Middle Belt people in the Obidient movement have informed me about the WhatsApp groups they have! There was one for Endsars that was converted to the Obidient WhatsApp group

Now have they used these platforms to dissuade their people from attacking us? What other means have they taken asides the usual gaslight of “u aren’t doing anyone a favour” lol

Mind you, we have seen them caution their people on various issues since 2022, so it’s not like we are asking for the impossible.

But there is a lack of will to do it because they enjoy it. What most do is change the conversation from cautioning their people to discussing Peter Obi himself, because it helps them justify their attacks

After yesterday, I gave it a lot of thought and I have made up my mind officially to tell all Middle Belt people to not vote for Peter Obi!

Those who want to, can, but OFFICIALLY, my position is that our people should consider other candidates!

It is a personal opinion, and I have provided my reasons

Our people can vote Omoyele Sowore in the AAC, Seyi Makinde, in APM or a Adewale Adebayo in the SDP!

There are other candidates to consider too!

Cyber terrorism has to be curtailed at all costs and buried

Middle Belt people have to deal with on ground terrorism and cyber terrorism.

While on ground terrorism is bad, we must also not ignore the online one either! We must also not face one and ignore the other

Most of us don’t go to fight on ground, or in the villages, but we have our phones so we can limit the nuisances of cyber terrorism here

I initially wanted to be neutral on the 2027 election but it has gotten to the point where even that is not enough

We need to prevent the new generation of Middle Belters from facing such nuisances in future

[Patrick Anum @patrickanum]

You have been on the receiving end of bot farm attacks

These animals don’t know that I and others will not tolerate the denigration of our people on social media

Their normal excuse is, allow us insult and dehumanize u, while u focus on Fulani

We will not tolorate both!

Their candidate will lose in 2027 and all these bots will be for nothing

[Patrick Anum @patrickanum]

These guys operate Bot farms to attack Middle Belt people

They use them to insult us, denigrate us! One was caught here!

Their leaders follow these bot farms! I wouldn’t have cared about their bot farms but when it’s targeted at Middle Belt people, I have to speak out

[Ndi Kato @YarKafanchan]

When we say the cult is fully endorsed by their leaders and they are complicit in this online terrorism, some of you think it may not be so; you think it is too extreme to believe.
Here is their Oga's most significant associate following a bot handle that was just set up this month and tweets wild things and threatens people. The handle just started tweeting 3 days ago and he already follows it.

The quest to save Nigeria through bot farming & Middle Belt denigration

[Ndi Kato @YarKafanchan]

It is not just influencers. They have bot farms. And their leader is WELL AWARE of it. I thought it was just their youth doing it on their on their own till I found PO's second in command, Oseloka following a newly minted bot handle. We are dealing with dangerous people here.

[Patrick Anum @patrickanum]

@YarKafanchan The useless fraud said I created this account which is based in Nigeria when I am in Europe

They don’t even think propaganda through

😂

[Ndi Kato @YarKafanchan]

One of them is in your comments denying something that has clear proof. We are dealing with the lowest of the low in Nigeria. Never seen anything like it in my life. Kwat!!!

[Patrick Anum @patrickanum]

@rita_emiowele Your mother is the Ozour e no go better for her

She go kpai next month

Idiot, your candidate will not win and nothing will happen

[Patrick Anum @patrickanum]

When you call attention to this, they will tell u it is bot(mind u they control these bot farms)

The latest one is to accuse me of creating bot accounts

So u mean I created the ones under here attacking her? Some of u are mad
