Do Not Travel To South-West For Now – Arewa Youths Tell Northerners by Sunofgod(m): 1:14pm On Feb 14, 2021
Northern Youths Council of Nigeria, NYCN, has expressed concerns on the alleged constant attacks against northerners, especially the recent attack in Sasha market of Akinyele Local Government Area of Oyo State which led to loss of lives and destruction of property, advising northerners not to take the risk of travelling to the South West for now.

A statement from its spokesman, Mock Kure, observed that, “The attention of the Northern Youths Council of Nigeria has been drawn to the ongoing Carnage against Northerners, particularly in Sasha Market of Akinyele Local Government, Oyo State, South West Nigeria wherein so many lives were either killed or injured, business premises and vehicles were burnt by Yoruba hoodlums.

“We wish to condemn such an attack in the strongest terms possible and call on security agents to arrest the perpetrators so as to serve as deterrent to would be hoodlums.”


The Arewa youths noted that the hidden agenda to expel northerners in that segment of the country started with the call on all herdsmen (Not criminal elements) by the Governor of Ondo State, His Excellency, Rotimi Akeredolu, to leave all State controlled Forests Reserves.

It explained that this led to the sudden emergence of one Sunday Igboho, a well known motor park tout as the Enforcer-In-Chief of the hidden but now open agenda in far away Oyo State.

The youths noted, “The eviction orders violate the provisions of the constitution of the Federal Republic of Nigeria (1999 as amended) which guarantees freedom of movement to all citizens and rights to own movable and unmovable properties in any part of the country.”

The statement noted that in his effort to defend the laws of the country, the Inspector General of Police gave instruction to his subordinates in the region to arrest and bring the said Sunday to Abuja, saying that the arm of the law has proven to be weak and helpless as the said wanted person has been going about dishing out fresh quit notices to law-abiding citizens and enforcing same in many States of the region.

“We believe strongly that the inability of the government at all levels to tame the lawless wings of Sunday Igboho and his co-travellers has led to the emergence of his variants, hence, the renewed attacks on settled business people and many others that can’t speak Yoruba at Sasha Market,” the statement explained.

The youth called on the federal government to declare Sunday Igboho’s group a terrorist organization as he is not different from Boko Haram.

They called on the Northern Governor’s Forum under the leadership of Barr Simon Bako Lalong to rally his colleagues to begin to evacuate their brothers that are trapped in the Southwest and other troubled spots in Southern Nigeria since the governments in those regions have proven to be helpless or tacitly complicit in the ceaseless attacks ”on our people.”

The statement observed that the Northern Youths continue to maintain maximum restraints despite the unjustifiable and unprovoked attacks on their people pending when government would exhaust all its cards.

It enjoined the National Emergency Management Agency (NEMA) to mobilize resources to the market to ameliorate the sufferings of those who lost their means of livelihood to the carnage.

The Arewa youths urged the federal government to adequately compensate those who lost loved ones and property to the crisis.

The Arewa youths also enjoined Northerners to desist from travelling to South West Nigeria as signals from the region remain awful, pending when the government would prove that it is now safe to travel to that region.

The statement urged Nigerians with conscience to condemn such attacks and other planned attacks, saying that together, good shall triumph over evil.

So Northerners can be this timid and scared

Anyways if the foolish northern truck pusher had not beaten a pregnant woman or drew his dagger to kill a Yoruba man who came to rescue the woman, we would have had a decent and better conversation on how to settle this without needless loss of 10 Northerners life

Northern Youths Council of Nigeria is emotionally mixing issues without weighing the consequences because they are not affected.

Look, any Nigerian is free to engage in social intercourse and commercial transactions in any part of the Nigeria. As we speak many Northern merchants are moving goods from North to Lagos and part of SouthWest. They have been doing this over the years with mutual respect and will continue to do so. Fights among traders happen sometimes and are usually settled and mutual respect restored. interestingly, it is people with emotional mentality of Northern Youths Council of Nigeria that escalate minor disagreement between two traders into inter-ethnic fight. It happened in Mile 12 market.

The critical issue here is that many young Fulani who don't have any cattle to rear, no education and no other skill except meandering in bush paths have become menace to the host communities. Because they are wild and needs money to live, they are simply recruited by some big criminal elements to kidnap for money. Even the ones that have cattle herd to look after are so focused on feeding the herd that that they fail to differentiate wild grass from food crops on farms. There is absolute disregard and disrespect for host communities and their own vocation. These are the issues.

SHAME to Northern Youths Council of Nigeria that instead of looking for long-term practical solutions, they are putting up emotion. Little wonder that the on-going banditry up North mayhem is persisting. Ostrich approach to issues don't solve challenges.

All these agitations are simply because of a band of marauders and killers a president called foreigners were freely invited over for a jihad to displace Nigerians from their ancestral lands.Buhari have taken Nigeria to that precipice.

Ooh oh, The SW(yorubas) said IPOB and some Igbo's were intolerant towards criminal herdsmen because they couldn't take GeJ 2015 loss, should we now assume the SW(yorubas) is attacking northerners because Buhari has refused to resign or rather die to allow Osinbanjo rule, or maybe because the SW(yorubas) has no unchallenged chances for 2023 presidency....
Bigotry doesn't do anything good!


Focktot : IPOB and Criminal herders have been clashing for more than 3yrs, and ESN has been chasing criminal herders out of hiding for over 3 months not a month... I'm a spectator I don't have any stakes on any side, I say it as I see it!

Yorubas should get the signals....

Leave North also.

Avoid going to the north for now.

They are changing the narrative...

The Northerners said, it's all about politics and presidency...

They are turning a deaf ear to their herdsmen attrocities

Ahhh so southwest has become a danger zone that people are advised not to travel to now? Oh lord, to think some people never believed that this day would come.

Plateau and benue will be child’s play after Fulani finishes with that region. Even Biden will be advising his citizens to come to Nigeria but not to the NE and SW lol

They were warned.

Jagaban to the rescue (in 2023 sha)

You can help us to separate Fulani killers from Hausas. Hausa people are peace loving people but the Fulani has infiltrated them causing all sort of crime. We urge you to report any bad Fulani among you to the security at all time to avoid being seen as criminals. Leave religious continents aside a criminal is a criminal regardless of his or her religious affiliation.

How is your statement coherent?

When did the South west attack Igbos for chasing Fulanis out of their land?

if you had said southwest accused some Igbos of bigotry and intolerant nature towards Buhari because of his Fulani heritage, I will have acknowledged that you said nothing but the truth.


Nonetheless, the hypocrisy of Igbos still showed when majority of them Still supported Atiku another Fulani in the last election. Still, that is not what we are discussing here.

Or is not only last month that Igbos started chasing Fulanis away from South east through your ESN ?

I am in Ibadan right now.

A Hausa nail cutter just passed now without any problem.

I have already seen a Hausa cobler this morning.

Please say something else.

You think Ibadan or Oyostate is a tiny place or what?
