CyberG:

Life has already judge you - a man who was unsung and unknown all his life! Even in Biafra days, you were neither a hero or a peon to be reckoned with, in Nigeria you are pained that you are still bossed around and you never made it, so shall it be when you kick the bucket too! You are not worth even the shaite of a dog, so I refuse to engage you and wish every poster could do the same! Your voice has never counted in Nigeria, whether in he past, present or future so shut it!

shy-mmex:
Honestly, Yoruba's don't need a green snake under the green grass to tell them what they already know. He might believe what he said and he probably has a lot of respect for Awolowo. However, that doesn't negate the politics being played here and what's at stake.

I believe GEJ is doing everything possible to placate the Yoruba's, and nick votes from them in 2015. He knows Yoruba's are at the forefront of SNC, hence why he has decided to create this ruse to generate interest. Then pulled another smart one by making a Yoruba head the SNC committee. And subsequently he made a Yoruba the head of the Nigerian Intelligence thingy. I'm sure he would throw more baits at the Yoruba's, in the next few months.

They're trying to play chess towards 2015 and Yoruba's need to be vigilant. I'm not partisan, however, I believe APC would cater more to Yoruba interests, than the incumbent. The man, GEJ, is utterly useless - and he needs to be booted out. Yoruba's need to vote as a bloc and vote against him.

PS: who the fekky fvck banned my handles? This fugly and smelly albino definitely wants to be e-slapped on his fvcked face for red-face syndrome. No time for inconsequential peasants. You can ban this one as well, you narcissistic midget, whose only claim to relevance is by butt-hugging the next man's sweat. How about get your bum ar.se off the forum and go create something you can actually own by yourself, you reprobate son of an eunuch?

I'm out!

dozzybaba: Who is Awo

Arysexy: I don't know wot this tribally laced thread is doing in politics section.

Clarke whom d yorubas av been cursing ever since gave them d banana they wanted and all of a sudden he spoke d truth.

Yoruba are known loud mouths and chest beaters! Ojukwu's sarcasm dat 'awo was d best president Nigeria NEVER had' was used by d chest beaters to hail dia villain god, d killer of women and children and a suicide coward.

They claim sophisticated politically, is sophistication playing tribal politics? He used tribalism to woo zik's victorious member to his AG, by brainwashing them day zik an easterner can't win southn this is d genesis of tribal poilitics.

They claim to be highly educated, yet prof kenneth dike was d first indigenous vc after d white left. Njoku was d first vc of unilag, where wia d educated yorubas then? Keep living in d past when d statistics presently says otherwise.

Yoruba delusion and loud mouth knows no bound, smart politicians knows how to get at yorubas, dats y Tinubu is riding on them using awoism, a corrupt polithiefian for dat matter, do I need to tell u dat clarke is smarter than u all, he knows wot he is doing. Go read clarke's stand on yorubas b4 now then come back.

Attack dogs, I await ur reply, u invited us to this thread from page one, lets get down d mud.

The man responsible for the developments in today's Western a Nigeria

The man is the reason why you see a visit to Lagos the same way we treat a trip to New York

DerideGull:

The dark sides of Awolowo’s free educational system in western region of Nigeria are being loathed on this forum and suddenly you decided to increment the odds. The people of eastern region of Nigeria were been killed in other regions of Nigeria and were asked to relocate to eastern region by irate crowds supported by indigenous folks in uniform. When the easterners obliged to relocate to eastern region yet Gowon initiated a war against them.

If the best option for Ojukwu was to approach the UN for self determination, may I ask you in what capacity?

Arysexy:

Which of the bridges, roads and structures in lagos did awo build? Was lagos d capital of western nigeria or ibadan? Even at dat ibadan stil remains shyt covered wit rustic corrugated zincs.

I know say una weak to chase igbos out of lagos, u can only whine and complain, igbos are in lagos bc awaolowo said so. Deal with it.

Katsumoto:

'In political terms, he would be considered an adversary of the igbos given the intense rivalry between him and Dr Nnamdi Azikwe. As a leader of the modern cast, he has left Nigeria standards which are indelible, standards beside which future aspirants to public leadership can be eternally measured. He was firm, articulate, painstaking, and uncompromising. He was, for a long time, the only Nigerian leader who enunciated principles and played down personalities. He was a brilliant political administrator and a most erudite teacher. He not only identified himself wholly with the aspirations of the Yoruba people of Nigeria but also he was able to convince the Yoruba people of Nigeria that he and only he epitomized the highest point of their political aspirations and consciousness. He was loved, he was feared but above all he belonged to the people he professed to lead. At his death I had the singular honour of proposing for him the epitaph that has endured – ‘he was the best President that Nigeria never had’.

Many have wondered what I meant by this, but I believe the statement was clear. Nigeria would have benefited from his presidency because of his inate presidential qualities. Nigeria must continually regret that he never, for many reasons, had the opportunity to serve at the presidential level. Awo was a leader of great stature. He was a leader who was eminently successful. That he did not fulfill a presidential ambition cannot detract from his leadership, and us, poor us, who were not his people, must continue, to regret that our own leaders had not led us as he did his people or achieved for us as he did for his people.

He perceived his job as leading his people and God his soul. He did a lot for them. Whenever he saw an opportunity for his people, he went for it. He had a dream for the Yorubas and was steadfast in the pursuit of that dream. He knew where he was going and took his people with him without deceit. That is why he will remain immortal in the area of his influence.'

Emeka Ojukwu - "Because I Am Involved" page 159- 160.

Is that clear enough for you?

For the second bolded part, Igbos produced the first VCs because Igbbos were in power with the North. Same reason why Ironsi was made GOC even though the outgoing British GOC recommended Ogundipe.

You really need to gain some knowledge and increase your logical reasoning before you dive into debates.

Cusubaba: Did i hear u said Yorubas opened the doors of education and development to Igbo's? Guy ur poky olodo. The first Vice Cancellor of University of Ibadan which is in yoruba land is an Igbo man. The first Nigeriaa to trade with European is an Igbo man ( Jaja Nwachukwu). The first richest man in Nigeria is an Igbo man ( Linus Ojukwu) The first President of Nigeria is an Igbo man. The first millitary president of Nigeria is an Igbo man. The first Senete president of Nigeria is an Igbo. The first graduate to enter Nigeria military force is an Igbo man( Odimegwu Ojukwu). shut up poky! The time Igbos open eyes, Yorubas were blind in their cave called Oduduwa Republic( banana).

Rhino.5dm:


A clear organisational break down is what we've just witnessed within the last 24 hours. Seun allowed a poor little kid to rundown the most sensitive and important section of this forum. What baffles me most is how on EARTH would any sensible person allow a retarded kid to handle the most sensitive aspect of his lifetime project? #Damn You Seun!!!

hercules07:

Educate yourself, Western Nigeria was up to Ebute Meta, the Island was the capital not Lagos State.

Arysexy:

U need d education, dude. Tell me d development awolowo brot to lagos dat made it a newyork for d igbos as d animal I quoted wrote.

Which of d bridges in lagos did awo build? Lagos island was capital of Nigeria bt capital teritory extended beyond lag island.

All ur efforts to re-write history shall be twarted. Only d truth can set u free.

whitecat007: I wish to like this all day!

Seun has no idea what he's up against in ibos. He of all people should know by now that ibos don't like anything Yoruba and will kill this forum if given the chance.

So Seun, you are not pleasing anyone by putting ibos as mods, they will still call you names whenever they want.

Arysexy:

STORY dat touches yoruba's heart.

Anyway, Goodmorning mr katsumoto. Hope ur ego is massaged by my goodmorning?

Katsumoto:

That's all you can say after you have been publicly shamed?

Try to know the difference between Lagos Island and Lagos State first.

0monnakoda: The other issue is weighting. Weight referes to he relative share of federal legislature or power to determine presidency. The arbitrary creation of states has advantage certain regions more than others and this needs to be redressed. The problem is on what basis or what "starting point". No one gives away advantage without a fight or for nothing.

St_Black:

So far, your defences hold no water. !

No amount of historical twist you can make here that can ever undermine Awo's legendary contributions IN the whole SW states.

Run from pillar to posts, any other Nigerian asides the Ibhoes on NL I so far know wiont acknowledge any other effort as much as Awo's legacies in his SW.

E.Clarke is a living witness, So you & your Ibhoes may go wild for all I care. !

nagoma:

What basis is good question.it needs to be redefined. When a duckling thinks he is swan. A minority tribe in a small enclave think they are equal to a region.

0monnakoda:
Lol
That is funny but that is why there should be devolution of powers and resource control. Is it right to go swanning about with a duckling's resources.
The key issue is that I don't think there can be true negotiation if there is no secession option. Though I don't think secession should be immediate. If a group are not able to reach a compromise then they should be allowed to conduct a plebiscite on secession with perhaps a ten year timetable.This would have to be UN sanctioned.
A situation where minorities are terrorized by majorities is not ideal and I don't think minorities should hold the majority to ransom but people should have a right to opt in or out. I am not opposed e.g to Biafra but the use of force was a mistake. It is most likely that if the North does not make significant compromise Nigeria will split. For one we have to scrap all forms of Sharia in the political space and resource transfer schemes from South to North. Again resource control can be phased so we increase from 13 to 14 to 15 ,16,17 etc year by year or a similar formula till we reach an agreed level and the rest shoul go to the FG I don't support the idea of oil revenue from Rivers forming the basis for the budget of Oyo State or Kebbi State. Any State that cannot fund itself should be merged with others

St_Black:

So far in world history, hardly has a country splitted without the eventuality of a war.

No matter what, a dissolution sanctioned by the UN remains "almost" impracticable, or dont you think so?

Who cares? Clarke told u ppl wot u needed to hear so as to agree and reach a common groind which is Resource control. Get that?
