MIDDLE BELT FORUM (YOUTH WING)
Press Statement
The attention of the Coalition of the Middle Belt Youth Leaders has been drawn to comments credited to the President of Arewa Youth Consultative Forum (AYCF), Mallam Yerima Shettima, threatening the peace and unity of Nigeria over the ongoing #EndSARS protests.
The AYCF president was quoted to have threatened that the North would go to war if the #EndSARS protesters demand the resignation of President Muhammadu Buhari.
This is not the first time Shettima is threatening the peace of our nation as he had issued a similar threat in the past as contained in the ‘Kaduna Declaration’ in which he ordered all Igbos residing in the North to leave within three months or face daring consequences.
After an emergency meeting, we the youth leaders of the Middle Belt wish to categorically note that our region and peoples are no longer part of the perceived North and, in the event of any war against the South, the teeming youths of the Middle Belt shall not participate in any war against our Southern brothers.
We state here without ambiguity that the current #EndSARS demonstrations are not only restricted to ending SARS brutality, but also committed to making Nigeria work for all citizens across ethnic, religious, socio-economic and geo-political divides.
We dismiss as a complete hogwash attempts by the AYCF to portray the #EndSARS protests as enmeshed in subterranean schemes to pull down the President Buhari-Federal Government. As Middle Belt youth leaders, we deprecate Shettima’s threat and hereby insist that our nationalistic youths are only actively engaged in these demonstrations to end the cruelty of police and demand a just system for a nation.
It is tragic that the AYCF president has not found it apt to protest the uncontrolled banditry and insurgence ripping across the area Shettima claims to represent. We are alarmed that that despite upsetting statistics by the National Emergency Management Agency (NEMA) that show that the dreaded Boko Haram has so far killed over 37,500 people and displaced an estimated 3.5 million people or more, including the killing of 15,000 in Kaduna, Zamfara, Katsina, Benue, Sokoto and Plateau state, the AYCF has remained silent and refused to protest against these unprovoked murders and destruction ravaging most areas of the North.
It is worrisome that despite having more than 15 million children that are currently out of school, among them 10 million street children who are popularly known as almajirai, there is no doubt that our future has been imperiled. Therefore, we are left with no option than to condemn Shettima’s threat....continue reading here https://thegiantreport.com/2020/10/22/middle-forum-disassociate-it-self-north-amidst-ongoing-protest-country/

But by now, any Hausa' fulani that still thinks a civil war in Nigeria will be against Southerners with they and Middlebelt people on one side must be a lunatic dreamer.

Any civil war happening in Nigeria this time around will take place at the intersection between Hausa' fulani Kanuri land (core-north) and Middlebelt tribes.

KADUNA city/Zaria, Niger north & Kebbi south, Bauchi south/Bauchi city, Gombe south/Gombe city, Borno south and few parts of Adamawa would be the battleground!
They won't even stand a chance in Jos, Nasarawa, Abuja or Taraba when a full blown war arrives. They should wait and see.

Fulani government is evil.
They have started the propaganda of dividing the Igbos and the Yorubas. This is their main strength. When the South is divided they will conquer all

Good.

No reasonable Nigerian considers the middle belt as part of any amorphous north anymore.. People like Buhari consider his siblings from Niger republic to be far more northern Nigerians than folks from the middle belt. So the demarcations have already been made.

Peaceful disintegration would save more lives than OneNigeria

Arewa and its 12 states are on their own. They will recruit BMC zombies to fight their war.

Arewa better say no to war with a United south

The north need to wake up... Playing the ostrich will not help them

Middle belt is middle belt of Nigeria. We are not North or South.
