How about the northern intimidation in Nigeria

Wish every Nigerian could be as astute, intelligent, brave and courageous as he is. Then our nation would be a better and safer place to live in. Bravo Honourabl Minister Aviation before.
Yes. It really depends on our environment. His family & people raised & allowed him to grow.
Woah! woah!, great content !!

MY brother Femi! You're welcome to this Noble Truth.
This is one of many who will drive oduduwa republic to the highest level.Always spot on when issues that matters arise.
This wasa powerful speech by FFK
Islam by Prophet Muhammad does not say kill anyone or anybody that doesn't believe in Islam
Islam is more ruthless than Christianity
Is God religious?
God created Man,
Man invented Religion
Man created Religion
Oh my God! I'm crying while watching this 😭😭😭 I don't know what to say to the Angel that directed me to Nigeria.
Lol
😂😂😂
It can be worst than this if your Angel directs you to another Country 😂
😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😎
Message of hope and encouragement in the face of torments. Islamic fundamentalism shall not be forever. The God that delivered the Israelites from the torments of the Egyptians will arise for us in this country. Thanks FFK for enlightening us.
Fani. You are almost all correct. But let me tell you a fact. Islam and the Islamic fundamentalism is one and same. I was once with islam and know much about them
Spot on dude.
@Victor Onanubi Let us see, like the "good" Yar'adua who smuggled in Sanusi Lamido Sanusi as CBN governor. The same Sanusi who masterminded the killing of Gideon Akaluka in Kano?
@Victor Onanubi Very true. There is a difference between Christianity & Islam. If you leave your faith as a Christian, your as good as everyone else, but if a Muslim leaves Islam, the can be taken as enemies & or infidels.
Fundamentalism means to go as your book tales you. Yes, you can defend yourself, as Christ told his followers to get swords. Luke 22:36 (ESV)
| 36 He said to them, “But now let the one who has a moneybag take it, and likewise a knapsack. And let the one who has no sword sell his cloak and buy one. |
Jus said the same thing, I wish to be your friend pls.
Respect! Respect to Fani. This talk should be shared in our schools.
Indeed we must fight this evil Islamist and stand up with those who fight them.
Femi Fani-Kayode May God bless you for standing for the truth all the time am very glad to see a great man like you speak without no fear this is what the lord God wanted from human beings thanks Sir
Wow I'm surprised we have such a person in Nigeria and in politics! Can't believe I'm just knowing him and the message has been here 5years ago. May God bless him and I pray God will put him in position to help our country Nigeria
This is a potential President of Nigeria, well knowledgeable about our country, very skillful, competent, outspoken, have capacity and capabilities to lead and create balance, do justice and defend the entire country. But you know, my country sometimes do not choose best brains to rule us but choose by sentiments. We elect leaders by regional bias and ethnic sentiments. We hope our Nigerian youths will do the proper thing soon.
I love you brother, may God bless you, stay strong, we are behind you and God is behind you in Jesus christ Name, love you
Fani Power, great Man, great mind,with good pedigree. God bless you Femi.
Gov kashim shattima need to be arrested now. Just that now.

Wow, this is a side of Nigeria I am not used to. Power! We love Nigeria. You are the Giantsnof Africa. We are you Children. Rise and take your place.
Sending love from SA.
God bless Nigeria.
Mr Femi Fani-kayode is an icon of speech and oration in my own opinion. I admire him a lot. He is another kind of Wole Soyinka when it comes to public opinion and public speaking.
Keep it up my brother . The sky is the limit.
Good talk. Thank you Hon. Minister, Fani-Kayode. I always respect you for your truthfulness and boldness. God bless you my dear brother.
Embarrassing but a zenith of an educative and inspiring speech. As this speech continues to go round, I implore FFK to use his same wisdom to prescribe executable solutions to the problem of Islamic Fundamentalism in our great nation.
Ffk is known as newscaster but lack the power to execute good things.
Yoruba people, where are you, please in the name of God, Wake up like this Fani Kayode. Don’t be a like a cowards as people always says. Speak up . Be bold and strong 💪. Man died one time. Let us Unite and pull down any crazy strong hold. Don’t mind your brothers running After money therefore selling their lives and that of their children. God bless you.
The topic of discussion was challenges of lslamic fundamentalism. After the long narratives from this wonderful speaker, which fortunately all Nigerians are familiar with the story, he had failed to provide any solutions. How do we fight lslamic fundamentalism as a group in this country. This is the problem with our public speakers that rendered such services for their own pecuniary benefits.
FFK you and your family will always be in my prayers. You are South Westerner with a difference. May The Almighty God, Jehovah never seize to protect you and your family in Jesus powerful name, Amen.
Amen.
The God of heaven, will continue to be with you and ur family. In Jesus name,, Amen
This is exactly what is happening now. A visionary speech.
A nice and educative speech, keep saying the truth FFK
i feel you sir FFK God bless you and more strength
FFK u are one of the few in our country today bold enough to hit the facts without any fear, more grease to ur elbow.
This is a great Religious apologist.
I just stumbled on this video. I couldn’t believe it has been on social media for the past five years. Thank you FKK for this wonderful insight.
Me too. Those useless bloggers won't post this. They only post things to tarnish him.
GOD BLESS THOSE WHO ALWAYS SPEAK THE TRUTH, UP FFK, WE ARE SO PROUD OF YOU.
Wow! These are fact in open space that are hidden from most of us, Nigerians. Thank you so much Mr. FFF for the awareness and information. Very educative. So, rather than splitting the country, we just need to join forces and flush out Boko Haram for good including the Yerima person. He still should be tried for paedophilia. And now, it has been revealed that Nigeria has taken Sukkuk from the Islamist terrorists and silenced the leaders thereby.
Let those involved in destroying this country learn from this wisdom or stand to be eliminated in due time. IJN
I am much updated by this documentary. Fani Femi Kayode, a true Nigerian par excellence!!!
I never knew, fani kayode is well informed like this.
Because you don't read books or listen to news
What an enlightening, you are a great hero of our time
this man u are worldly bless as a man, and u are always stand on the truth may almighty God bless u
True!!!
Sir you are a man
Wow! How come am seeing this after 6 years? Some people are truly foresighted. Love you FFK
Hi Fani, this is really a frank and hard talk. How can Nigerian accept the truth of this matter, and rise to the challenge thereof?
@Columba Nnorom man you are an icon. God bless you. This is the only thing FFK has not understood. Thank you.
This man right here will work for same fundamentalists if his next pay is no longer guaranteed under the ruling party or opposition. No matter who he condemns he will still work for if he is favoured by that person financially
This Man is a "Genius" in fact He is Historically grounded and Well inform
Let the Light of Peace and Libration be intact to this Man
After hearing all these from FFK, some human beings today still shout one Nigerian .This is what happend since five years ago but these day, the worse is happening and we are still here shouting one Nigerian🙇No Way,
Biafra and Oduduwa must be restored.
Oh my God!!what a brilliant fellow when he went to school,his words sounds like dynamite.l luv that.May the almighty father defend thee.
Femi Fani Kayode - Nigeria's conscience
IT 'S TIME FOR EVERYONE TO GO THEIR OWN WAYS MY PEOPLE.
Yeah, I don't know what the Oduduwa are waiting for, igbos and yorubas should gang up and face these cows with war, but Obasanjo and Tinumbu must be cleared away first.
@@olusheyijackson3838 👍
@@olusheyijackson3838 you are the really son of your father.. you know the game
Chief FFK, thank you for your boldness. We love you. We pray for you and god has heard our prayers. Please continue to help us in the south. A man of the people. God bless you.
Let Nigeria be divided and let everyone go develop their own country.
NOOOOOOOOOOOOO
My comment is that Fani Kayode is one of the resourceful personalities that humbles me each time I'm Iistening to his verifiable informations.
Thank God for Social media.
Thank God for Femi Fani-Kayode for speaking this Truth.
Thank you so much for FFK speaking the truth
Truth must be told FFK nothing do you jah bless you
I wish we had more bold elites in Nigeria like FFK. He is never afraid to speak truth to power. Today We are seeing the manifestations of all you said many years ago. I weep for Nigeria. I hope the Northern leaders and politicians are feeling the consequences of their silence in not condemning the monster called boko haram and other vices bedeviling this country. Now is the time for everyone to rise up with one VOICE and say NO to bad leadership, Nepotism, injustice, religious intolerance etc. May God help us.
Is today the Nigerians really know what happend about the so called CHIBOKE GIRLES may God bless you MR. KAYODE.
United will stand but divided will fail. Thank you sir for ur educative lectures in this series. To be honest, Other sections of this country has been so magnanimous to northern Muslim just because we're passionate for them. But this time around, we are going to resist it to utmost.
We, the Christians will never have to do with Muslims. It is the West that is making efforts to the unit everybody because of their ECONOMIC pursuit. Let them outlive their differences.
We need people like you FFK.
Wonderful this is a powerful message God bless you sir Nigeria shall overcome this evil.
This is the condition in 2014. Now we are domed now in 2020. With president Buhari as a figure head President
Nigerians are already divided by land , language and culture . We should divide and let peace reign .. There is no gain or peace in this union since the civil war
Humbrella Music l definitely agreed with you
You are 100% right. More countries need to divide so all their people can live in peace.
What a grounded scholar,fantastic,,!.Go back to the universities and mould our future leaders,i salute you.
The killings in the north started in the 60s. Remember the pogroms of 1966 that led to Nigerian civil war?
Well, the perpetrators got away with it and the world just watched.
That, Mr. Kayode, marked the beginning of evil in Nigeria! !
It actually started 1945. why is 1945 and 1953 always forgotton when bringing up 1966?
Angelica kweku b
The first attack was in 1945.
I never knew that femi kayode is this fair at all especially when he condemned the babarism in plateau state, it also shows that he understand Islam to some level, not like other Christians who condemned the whole Islam because of the act of bad eggs among the Muslims.
Brilliant, enlightening and very well delivered. The historical perspectives coupled and intertwined with current happenings in Nigeria and around the world make this video a must watch any day. Delivered with grace and courtesy, and sublime thoughtfulness with a forward-looking lens; this delivery should rekindle the passion of all Nigerians never to want to stand aside or aloof unconcerned as the forces and sponsors of Islamic fundamentalism plot their next moves. Thank you Femi, once again, for this brilliant expose. Posterity will always thank you for your candour in this matter. As a Ghanaian of Nigerian heritage, I feel honoured and blessed to have had the opportunity to watch this video. Very very educative!!!
This man is my hero. Very eloquent and intelligent. I am proud of you.
I love and respect FFK, great man from south west he is really educated, i admire his brilliance and vibrancy
In all these, God will definitely take glory as in the case of Israel in Egypt.
Good message to Nigeria and the whole Africa happy new year 2020
Please the africans should be exremly afraid of Bill Gate and OUR politicians they create problems for AFRICA. The POLITICIANS the ISLAMIC JIHADIS are in the same BOARD.I HATE both 2.get raid off JIHADIS AND BILL GATE from AFrican.
From today my respect for this man increased. U are the Obama of Nigeria. God bless u sir
Which one is Obama. Obama that supported Propaganda
MR. FANI WITH ALL DUE RESPECT HAS TO REVISE, HIS HISTORY LESSONS.
Please what did he get wrong?
How old are you really? Social medias(its social media not ''social medias') had (has not had)introduced a new-level problem where people that knows (know)nothing JUST talk. I knew 95% of what he said. The remaining 5% agreed with antecedents(am not sure you know the meaning of this word) and circumstances around the stories - so tell us ONE SINGLE things(thing not things) he got wrong.
P.S;THE 1ST THING 'YOU' GOT WRONG WERE YOUR ENGLISH LANGUAGE SPEAKING SKILLS.REALLY SORRY TO SAY.PLEASE DO NOT TAKE OFFENSE.
Insolence breathes ignorance- and that's without an iota of a doubt.
Thanks brother Femi.... very knowledgeable.
You are another strong voice of our people the same like Nandi kanu God will continue to bless you .
The truth and nothing but the truth. Will give us freedom from the Fulani jinjàweed .
Hmmm
That's really wonderful speech.
Thanks!
But earlier the better we have Southern & Northern country of Nigeria.
Just imagine since 2014, still the same problem we're facing today.
That single person not killed by Abacha then has succeeded & infiltrated others if you check with your litmus paper.
Well Chief Fani Kayode I appluade your presentation on the issue raised. Certainly better than your political jingoism & abracadabra with the PDP.
Best wishes

God will bless you sir. You're a blessing to humanity
Yugos Nwamama lol typical fundamentalist
God bless you sir they now have a professional profiled project professor with sweet words who Now convert some Christian to islamic just because he can confused them.. Christian open your eyes Islamic law is prohibited in Nigeria

This speech was delivered 5 years ago. The name of the 9th murderer is Alhaji Sanusi, the deposed emir of Kano. Can FFK deliver such a speech today? Chief FFK is still evolving in his views.

That Comes Baba
God bless you Sir for your outspoken honest views
That person that was supposed to be killed but not killed is sanusi lamido sanusi. He was saved because he comes from the royal family .Sanusi was The former CBN governor and current emir of Kano .
Sanusi was trained by Osama bin Laden on fundamental Islam . He's also being watched closely by the CIA.
Why was my friend, the Emir of Kano supposed to be killed??
Why was my friend, the Emir of Kano supposed to be killed??
Grandoasis wow
I was thinking Sgt Rogers who killed Kudirat Abiola.
@@chrisclem7041 you got it wrong. It was the former chairman of first bank one Mutallab whose son wanted to bomb an aeroplane then not Sanusi Lamido EXCEPT if there was another instance.
Why are we (Africans) fighting and taking each others life's about the religions that do not belong to us. All this religions the religions came out of African they are the religions of our Colonizers an as long as we keep perpetuating them we will never have peace.. Untill we return back to our SPIRITUALITY. African Spiritually.
Who said slavery is finished? No now, it is not finished.
Continue to hold fire with your bare hands. Continue now!
Chief FFK, I respect you. God bless you. Please, open the eyes of our people especially the greedy politicians.
This speech is anti Islam. Ur intensions are to say the downsides that u think Islam has. Fortunately, Islam is a world religion and is very free from any extremism and extremism. For good manifestation s. Read about the life of our prophet.
Bro, slow down and look around you.
This is serious. Nigerians Wake up!!!
So if he knew all this since the last six years why is he switching sides now?
Very intelligent man. Great video.
By God's grace it will end up one day
I really really thank you Weldon excellent this’s type of people we wanted in Nigeria no fear to talk the truth God bless you
2021 anyone ??👀
F F K, you nailed it as always 👏 👌. May God bless you and keep you in good health until Nigeria 🇳🇬 is delivered from the political shackles
He speaks well, the errors are quite deliberate. But if there's Islamic fundamentalism then there's also Christian fundamentalism. No double standards.
God will give you more wisdom and keep you for good in Jesus name Amen
