Hate speech against the North

07:44 Apr 30 2018 Nigeria

Description

Since the 1940s, the land of northern Nigeria has drunk more innocent blood than any other region. It is payback time. Check it out, no other part of Nigeria has records of disasters, deformities, diseases and deaths more than the North.

Even the desert is after them and they are running down South to occupy our ancestral homesteads in the pretext that they want to graze their cursed and disease-infested cattle.

Where were they before this time? Why did they keep silent?
