ariesbull:first off, the ilorin case was a case of one man (afonga) 'selling out' his people cos he was greedy. The brave Igbos have not been in power since Ironsi & y'all have done almost nothing about it except the cry about 'marginalisation'. I think grumbling is quite different from bravery and let me take this opportunity to ask Igbos, what exactly do you have against Yorubas? 1 Like 1 Share |

ariesbull: Your perception of confrontation is what makes the difference. Yorubas have taken up different military regimes on different issues in the history of Nigeria. IBB had dribbled the high and the mighty of this country during his reign, but the day a yoruba man (Abiola) showed interest on his seat, he had to leave. Abacha could have be in a better position to tell us about the impact of NADECO and Kudirat Radio. Though the outcome might not be 100%, none-the-less, the game changed, so much that by 1999, practically all Nigerians were begging any available Yoruba person to come and rule Nigeria. Now, did the civil war and the senseless waste of lives by the Igbos achieve near that? I heard that even Ojukwu once said if the Yorubas decide to leave Nigeria today, they will achieve that without firing a shot. 4 Likes |

Sunofgod: Among its class(reptilia) the chameleon is unique and very well respected. Few could change there personal preferences to allign with their present situation without losing their identity. The yorubas can adapt easily to most economic, political, tribal and religious situations without stress and eventually come out as champions, while maintaining their identity. They know who they are and make sure(like chameleons) that one foot is definitely secured in the race for development before taking the the next step. The crocodile is not a coward, but its skin is used for shoes and women bags! 1 Like 1 Share |

ElekeNtioba: What happened to ur traditions when a superior force came around? The yorubas where smart enough to know that the cliphate consist of "ready to die" people, and could best be stopped by "ready to kill" british!. See where they are today cus of that smartness, the loss of intelligent youths to tribal war was avoided. |
