“If The South Rises Fully, You Won't Last 1 Hour” – Group Blasts Arewa Over War Threat

A group called Nation Builders and Reformers Organisation, NBRO, has on Sunday, October 18, slammed the leader of the Arewa Consecutive Forum, Shettima Yerima, over an alleged war threat he issued due to the ongoing #EndSARS protest across the country.

Recall we reported that Yerima Shettima on Saturday, warned that the North will go to war if Southerners who are protesting, demand for an end to Nigeria or for Muhamadu buhari to resign as president of Nigeria.

In a statement made and signed by the Convener of NBRO, Magnus Oku, in response to the alleged war threat, the group described Shettima as unreasonable for reducing the outcry of Nigerians to a mere political power tussle. 

According to the statement, the group warned Arewa that they would not be able to stand an hour's battle if the South rose fully.  

The statement read; 

“Shut up Shettima! What nonsense leadership are you referring to? 

“You are more particular about your stinking greed for power in Nigeria than the lives that have been wasted, the dignity we have lost as a nation, pain hunger, and stagnation experienced under President Buhari? 

“You are insensitive and unreasonable to think that your leadership should surpass the outcry for justice. Who cares about your war treat? If the South rises fully, you can’t stand them in one hour fight. So put your war threat and division talks in the dustbin where stinking things belong.

“What you can’t see is bigger than you and you will be stupid to think you are still a winner in this at this point. The fight is not for the south only but for Nigeria.

“Aisha and the rest of the reasonable Northerners in the struggle are not southerners. We are fighting a fight of all times and it can’t be stopped by any mortal. God is in this fight and we will win on all sides. 

“My advice to you instead of being on the losing side tomorrow is that you drop that stinky pride and greed for power and join a fight that will put your name in good books. This is a fight that will give your next generation a better future. Don’t talk against what you cannot see because this is bigger than you.”
