    About the recent influx of Fulani bandits into Nigeria after they were flushed out of the CAR

    Nigerians must prepare for total war—anytime from now. This is not a matter of prayer.
    A chilling storm is coming. Nigeria is under silent invasion. Deadly Fulani bandits, recently flushed out of the Central African Republic, are now infiltrating our borders in terrifying numbers.

    These aren’t ordinary criminals. These are elite killers—trained in the unforgiving deserts of Libya, hardened by war, and driven by a ruthless ideology. Now they’re here, creeping in through the North, spreading to the East, even reaching the South.

    They’re not just here. They’re also firmly embedded in Niger Republic, Mali, Cameroon, and now—shockingly—Benin Republic. Our borders are bleeding, and the nation sleeps.

    This is not a matter of prayer. It’s not a prophecy. It is reality—a slow-motion war unfolding before our very eyes.

    One brutal incident says it all: a friend’s uncle, after submitting student names to the NYSC headquarters, was abducted on the infamous Abuja-Kaduna highway. A ransom was paid. They still murdered him—left his body in the bush like trash. No conscience. No mercy.

    Recently, in February, Dr. Kunle Adeniji, a national director of the All Progressives Congress (APC), was kidnapped alongside his brother’s family in Abuja.

    Despite the kidnappers collecting a ransom, Dr. Adeniji’s life was not spared.

    Just days ago, these monsters stormed a military base in Benin Republic. Soldiers were massacred. Arms and ammunition looted. And guess what? That arsenal is heading to Nigeria.

    Reports say a terror group called Mahmuda has been spotted near Baruten in Kwara—right by the Benin border. That’s not far. That’s next door.

    Insiders whisper that some Nigerian politicians are quietly apologetic toward these terrorists—shielding them under the veil of shared religion, tribe, and culture.
    Some of these religious and tribal bigots are the ones controlling our country’s security apparatus.
    A well-known jihadist who massacred anyone opposing his religious ideology when he was governor, is roaming the country, poised to take leadership of this nation.

    Total breakdown of law and order is imminent, hidden under the religious belief that prayer will solve all our problems is untainable.

    If prayers alone could solve everything, Israel and Saudi Arabia wouldn’t be defending their countries with the latest war equipment.
    But my people in Nigeria are either blind to the reality on the ground, or they’ve been brainwashed to believe that prayer is the answer to the current wave of insecurity.

    This is no longer just banditry. This is an occupation. A calculated takeover. And Nigeria is dangerously unprepared.

    Innocent lives are being snatched daily—on farms, on roads, from their homes, and soon, from our cities.

    If we don’t act now—if we don’t rise with one voice—Nigeria could fall without a single official declaration of war.

    Stay alert. Spread the word. The war isn’t coming. It’s already here.
