Almost 1 mil people raped, displaced, and murdered in just 100 days.

Can somebody explain what’s going on in Nigeria? About a bunch of people getting killed for being Christian’s

its giving alt right misinformation about faith indiscriminate attacks. fox news is the only US outlet substantially reporting about naija christians being targeted

Who the woman though?

Boko Haram fake news to you?

The tweets in this thread man… super NSFW

There’s a video on Twitter of a little kid executing grown men with a rifle

This is a genocide happening and literally no major world powers give a s***

The situation is pretty complicated so it’s gonna take a minute but it’s like this:

Nigeria is about half Christian and half Muslim, with the north mostly Muslim and south mostly Christian. Now that being said, there are a LOT of Muslims in the south (especially southwest) and Christians in the North, mainly in a place called the Middle Belt. Anyway the majority of northerners aside from being Muslim are also settled farmers in various ethnic groups but the largest ones are Hausas. But there are some northerners that are nomadic cattle herdsman, and most of these herdsmen are Fulani. Now pre-colonization the Fulani conquered the Hausa so most native rulers and aristocracy in the north are ethnic Fulani, but also these Fulani have kind of mixed in with the Hausa, adopted their language and became settled too. The Fulani that remained nomadic live separately and also graze their cattle in the South as well, which is mostly populated by settled Christians who are largely Yoruba and Igbo, along with many other groups. Now that climate change is a thing, the Fulani herdsman are losing much of their traditional grazing land to desertification and increasingly getting into conflicts with farmers over land across all of nigeria, but because the Fulani are Muslim and some of their victims are Christian, there’s also a religious element to it. The Fulani aren’t necessarily killing to impose their religion, but it stings more because the government of nigeria is disproportionately dominated by northerners and elite northerners are disproportionately Fulani. And also Fulanis view themselves as superior to their Christian victims because of their religion. The same elite assimilated Fulanis who rule over the north as emirs, governers etc want the killings to stop but at the same time the nomadic Fulanis that are doing it are the same ethnic group as them so there’s some level of hesitance to lay down the law, and also the Nigerian army is extremely weak because nigeria is poor but also out of fear that if they were too strong they could coup the government again.

This Fulani herdsman killing people thing again is not strictly a religious conflict because they kill a lot of Muslim farmers in the north too, but Christians feel threatened by outsiders coming in and acting violently while the government, which is largely led by the same outsiders, does not do enough to help them. It’s important to note that this has NOTHING to do with the boko haram conflict which is mostly in the north east and driven by ethnic kanuris. That conflict is entirely religious and is Muslims killing Christians and Muslims they don’t believe are pious enough, but that conflict is also not as deadly as it once was or as deadly as the current herdsmen conflict

It’s also important to note that this exact herdsman vs farmer conflict is playing out across the Sahel in places like Mali and Burkina Faso, except there the herdsmen are explicitly identifying with armed jihadist groups whereas in Nigeria they present more as criminal bandit gangs. The conflict between herdsman and farmers is also similar in nature to the conflict between mongols and Han Chinese or between Turks and Persians back hundreds of years ago. There are too many Christians in nigeria for them to actually be wiped out, cause again, they’re like half the population but the Fulani herdsman still need to be stopped and integrated into the national economy in a way that doesn’t upset the locals. The government tries allocating a certain section in each states land to the herdsmen but the local people weren’t going because in their eyes the Fulanis are foreigners and not fellow countrymen, because nigeria in general is extremely tribalistic and no one ethnic group wants to give up land for another, which is understandable. So at this point either the Fulani have to herd under state supervision or cattle rearing should be modernized while the Fulani move toward jobs in settled areas, but I’m not sure if either is going to happen given the government

This is a pretty good synopsis. I’ve personally encountered these herdsmen when driving back to my state from Abuja. If you touch one of their cows, they will murder you. Then they’ll be leading their cows grazing across high traffic roads, when they’ve been barred from doing so. But if you threaten to go through them, you gonna see AK-47s flashing in your face.

I wish I could go in depth on this Fulani Herdsmen topic, but that s*** is deep on a cultural level, and geopolitical. My father is well versed in the topic.

Where you’re born is so important in life. I’ve had my hardships, but compared to this, it’s so far removed from my existence that it’s almost like watching a tv show. Can’t even fathom the emotions of the moment.

This genocide in Darfur is so disgusting, my God

unprecedented times in Tanzania, I can’t believe that stupid president would fumble her goodwill like this. she definitely did something shady behind doors and is scared of being caught so would rather crash out the nation smdh
