Governor Matawalle’s Advice To Zamfara Residents To Get Guns For Self-Defence Shows Nigerian Government Has Collapsed – Middle Belt Forum | Sahara Reporters

The Middle Belt Forum, MBF, has said the directive by the Zamfara State Government to the people of the state to get arms to defend themselves is an indication that the Nigerian government is useless.

The National President of MBF, Dr. Bitrus Pogu, said this on Monday in Makurdi, Benue State, Vanguard reports.He said, “The directive by the Zamfara state government that the people should get arms and defend themselves simply means that we have totally lost it. The country is on autopilot, we do not have a government anymore; because we have all reached the state of self-help.

"Nobody depends on the security forces anymore to defend anybody. They know where the bandits, insurgents and terrorist are and they are not doing anything.

REwenla Other 34 governors should follow suit! Else the violent shall taketh it by force

A completely failed State.

MaziNnamdiKanu warned y’all earlier but y’all with coconut head and cow brains no dey hear words.

No it shows Nigeria's government is finally using its intelligence to come up with a more effective solution

Medicine 💊 after death 💀

It's the only solution and it's very unfortunate! Extreme corruption that turns cancerous can not allow securities to protect lives and properties of Nigerians. ... 😭

You don't know?

Apc don collapse the nation, God pls help us. I just watched the video on YouTube where the commissioner for information, Zamfara state actually made this submission on behalf of the Government. E don finish

Apc don collapse the nation, God pls help us. I just watched the video on YouTube where the commissioner for information, Zamfara state actually made this submission unbehalf of the Government. E don finish

Very unfortunate scenario.

It's the constitutional duty of the governor of any state to guard, serve and protect the lives and properties of it's indigens and non-indigens. It's in his jurisdiction to tackle any uprising squarely, public statements promoting guns and violence is totally unethical.

Exactly

With this obvious collapse, the misguided military chiefs are busy fighting ESN / IPOB fighting the invaders from the Sahel and asking for REFERENDUM....while terrorist and bandits sponsored by Buhari nd his Fulani cabals are taking over Nigeria to further Fulani agenda

Having guns to defense of ourselves is the best thing, anybody that want to solve insecurity must face reality

And some mischief makers and Never-do-wells campaign against Peter Obi using small patches of insecurity in the south east. People wey ment!

It is quite unfortunate how the country has degenerated to nothing to write home about. How can a family that can barely eat 3 square meal a day afford a gun to themselves… A collapsed nation…

Sooo I just occur to you people that Nigeria as call apse 🤣🤣🤣, Nija don already collapse e don tey 🤣🤣

If the governor can boldly tell his people to get guns and protect themselves.., it is finish and that simply means he's using all the police in the state fully armed to protect himself and his family shikena!!!

Great but more is needed ,Nigerians should be made to serve in the military for 2 years like what is happening in south korea and the US. This will provide enough fighting force to assist in securing Nigeria

and una still de campaign for APC candidate, suffering never tire una the one way go come if City boy win go shoke everybody

This proves the fact that some northern leaders are B.H and bandit members and sponsors.

No news here...

Hmmm incompetence govt😭😭

Foolish, senseless and irresponsible advice of the 21st century. Shame to him !

Simply the reality! The unintended consequences of this will shake Nigeria to its core in due course! The next stage in the Somalization of Nigeria?

Nigeria has collapsed in the hands of APC, vote Labour Party. Vote Peter Obi for better Nigeria

Why is DSS not commenting on this? Why did DSS not charge for inciting violence? There are two different categories of Law in Nigeria. The law for the Masses and the law for the ruling class or big men.
