SW should forget the presidency in 2023 - Controversial letter the Fulani Association wrote to Oodua Nation resurface

A highly controversial letter written by Secretary, Fulani Association of Nigeria, Sheikh Mumeen Ahmad to the secessionist and pan-Yoruba group, Oduduwa Republic has resurfaced.

The letter, which was allegedly written in September last year described in detail the disgust within Fulani Association after the formation of the Ondo State Security Network (AMOTEKUN) by Governor Rotimi Akeredolu.

Mumeen Ahmad in the letter described the formation of Amotekun as a ploy to clamp down on the businesses of Fulani's living in the state and SouthWest. He also wondered why his forefathers didn't conquer the SouthWest like they did the North, noting that they intend to penetrate the region through jihad and aligning with some Muslims in the region "who understand us".

Read the letter below

Oodua Nation wants to stop our life, they want to stop our business, they want to kill our cows etc. We have seen how Amotekun has been arresting our people by creating lies against them.

Even before they started their nonsense agitation on Oodua, we have countless meetings and phone calls with MURIC led by Ishaq Akintola to speak against it and lead a protest. Of course, we read how he did that on newspapers and social media platforms, but our efforts to stop it were to no avail.

Initially, I don't trust Yoruba people whether they are Muslim, Christian, or whatever; in as much the person is from the SouthWest. Perhaps some members of the MURIC from the SouthWest kicked against it.

I also sent a letter to Malami, IG, etc to help stop these wicked souls who would prefer seeing us crying or dying than to do us good because of our ethnicity. All attempts to stop Akeredolu was fruitless before he went ahead to inaugurate that criminal organization as a target to our business and brothers.

It is not actually their fault, if our fathers in history had conquered that region, we wouldn't have found ourselves in this mess. How in life would one citizen tell others he doesn't have a right on land in the same country, is this not stupidity?

I do not know the Value of President Buhari, he should have used an executive order to stop these bastards that want to divide the country. Buhari was only giving out money, but he has yet to do our wish since he became the president. We are tired of his money. We need him to give us land for our people across the country. We brought out Ruga and co it was stopped.

The only thing he has done so far is the issue of Water Bills for our people and the approval of the railway from Nigeria to the Niger Republic for easy movements of our brothers from Niger to Nigeria. We can't forget our brothers!

So these are the only thing he has been able to do for us since his years in office. This is not too good for us because this's an opportunity for Fulani man, as we may not be the next president, but I doubt it.

Ishaq Akintola told me he will make sure he led Southwest Muslims to stop Amotekun, which he did. But Emir Sanusi's letter to our association told us it won't work because naturally Yoruba of any belief cant be trusted.

They are all the same and infidel! So I wasn't too much surprised when we didn't see any positive outcome from what we discussed.

They actually accused us of penetrating their land. Which land? Nobody owns land anywhere. If we actually want to penetrate the west, we will use their Muslims. That's the easiest way for us. If Akintola and his group had succeeded, will Amotekun be actualized?

Now, these criminals are the same people calling for a breakup! If we want to attack them, we will use their own people to fight them. They should go and read history, if we don't go by jihad, we will go by Islamic penetration by aligning with some of their Muslims who understand us.

We still have a war ahead inasmuch we still share this country, nobody owns a land anywhere. They have no right to start arresting our people by creating lies against them. We shall fight back and none of them will escape it.

I know how much effort I made when our people were killing a lot of them here even right from inside the mosque. We don't care who you are, war is war. They can continue saying that we don't allow their Muslims to lead a Jumat or Islamic prayer, it is because we can't allow an infidel "ChrislamTrad" that disguises himself as an Islamic preacher to lead us in our mosques. It can never happen unless we don't know who he is or where he came from!

They should keep saying we don't trust their Muslims, that is none of our business. We always make ourselves clear. But I foresee a war coming, they want to provoke us to pick up our forgotten sword kept by our fathers.

I shall be forwarding this letter to all members of Miyyeti Allah and all other Fulani Association groups to be alert because we can't take this nonsense anymore.
No room for Southern Nigeria should forget the presidency in 2023. If we see that it will be hard for us to get the ticket in APC, then we will destroy APC for another Fulani in PDP to come in, we don't care who is VP. That has never been our concern from time immemorial. But the South, particularly the SW should forget the presidency comes in 2023. We can no longer trust the affairs of the country to people who enjoy seeing us crying.

We are people that can't be intimidated by anything, they should continue agitating, this country will never divide. No one can destroy our country for us. Hausa ones said they are born to rule, but we said we own Nigeria and nobody can break up this country.
