His comment if true is not welcomed at this time...that said,that his his opinion.in my humble opinion I belive yorubas will work with anyone,that is why it is only yoruba in the three major regions that has the highest number of inter-regional marriages
and where did you get that analysis from? Atiku married and igbo woman,babangida too,p square married yoruba,even your actor desmond elliot has igbo blood.!! I have friends who are yoruba and married igbo......even yemi alades mum is igbo!! Gowon had an igbo wife,sound sultan married igbo......I just stated this facts for you to know how many igbos that cut across divide to marry from different tribes!! Yorubas do not supersede the igbos in this!! On my street presently I have an igbo woman marrying a yoruba......igbos are more liberal in that aspect.....

The truth is that apart from the religious intolerance of the hausa-fulani, they are the best allies anyone can have.
Very simple and straightforward people, their words are usually their bonds. They hardly betray your trust and not given to vain blabbing and treachery.
Even when they head any business or institution, their simplicity and generosity reflect downward, that is why i prefer them in leadership positions if they are qualified.
That is the Truth back to back

However the title of the greatest coward in the history of Nigeria goes to a certain warlord that abandoned his hapless people and fled the war zone to Abidjan.
You need to listen to how Gowon described Ojucrook

Because it was Yoruba that invaded Ore and the midwestern after promising not to invade neutral areas in their fight with the North?
The joke is on you shameless ibo!

The weapons dumped in the North, passed through the sky.
Your region was a supply route that deserves to be invaded to cut off the supply route.

Well you might call it what you wish' but the children of Oduduwa realized that the English had a more sophisticated technology to theirs and instead of stubbornly resisting them, they welcomed them with the intention of benefiting from the relationship. Perhaps that's what made Lagos to be a thousand years ahead of other states, as for southern solidarity, you people should have considered that' when Yoruba's went on the streets of Abuja to protest against the cabal holding GEJ hostage and eventually helping to install him albeit illegally as the president and when this same Yoruba's massively voted him in 2011 despite the fact that a Yoruba man was the vice presidential candidate to Buhari, yet at a point no Yoruba man was considered good enough by GEj to be in top 25 positions of his cabinet, if GEJ had really performed well may be the Yoruba's would not have minded' but here was someone who met billions of dollars in saving with oil selling above $100, yet he could save or invest in critical infrastructure, yet u want Yoruba to vote for him because of southern solidarity' no sir we don't roll like that, every relationship should be symbiotic.
lagos state is not 1000 years ahead of other states.....lagos benefited from its access to the sea which made the british to make it an entity on its own because the british lay very high premium on areas closest to the sea......abuja is an example of what oil money can do to a state!! If abuja had access to the sea, it would have over taken lagos as the best in Nigeria........lastly, taken down Gej had nothing to do with corruption but tribalism......they believed he didn't serve the interest of the yorubas that's all.....if they where so moraly upright, why did the yorubas not take out Obasanjo when we all know that he had a very corrupt government??

Which of your stup!d Ojukwu released Awolowo from prison? Ibo and lies, very synonymous!
Only an ibo man would say Ojukwu released Awolowo from prison when Gowon did! Pray tell what power do Ojukwu have top release a federal prisoner that immediately became Gowon Finance minister as soon as he was released! Ibo and dullness! Smh, too much akpu!
How do you defend Zik forming ally with the North (balewa) precisely to subjugate their fellow southern in the 60's? How about the Ekwueme and Shagari ally in 80's? Or ibos and Tofa's ally in the 90's over their fellow southern?
The joke is on you ibo losers!

Your illiteracy is first class. Did Ojukwu recognize Gowon.? To Ojukwu, Gowon broke military procedure of leadership by rank.

The senator is talking a load of rubbish.

The SW has been in opposition on a continuous basis since 1955. Apart from the 1993 election where the whole country basically voted for Abiola, the North has until now been in alignment with the SE. What changed was that the SE decided to go with the SS and the rest is history.

What happened between 1993 when Nigerians all voted progressive is the impoverishment of the Nigerian voter and the sharp divide along religious and ethnic lines. It will take a lot for this to change because politicians generally prefer the masses divided. I take your point. It's sad.

With all due respect sir, Obasanjo was corrupt, but he met just about $5bn in the forex reserves, with a national debt of over $38bn, but by the time he left the scene, he had paid off the debts and left about $45bn in foreign reserve and and $22bn dollars in excess crude account and guess what? The highest oil price during his tenure was just $75 with the Niger Delta crisis.

Now compare him with GEJ, he met a relatively bouyant economy, with good foreign reserves and almost all debts paid, oil was selling at $147 with the Nigerdelta crisis almost non existent, he left about $2bn in excess crude account and increased the nation,s debt, foreign reserve was down to about $30bn with pretty little to show.

If you consider the above scenarios very well, you will understand why the Yoruba's voted him out. Every Ex Nigerian head of state had been corrupt but some learnt to chop and remain, in Gej,s case, he pretty much ate the nation to the ground. In fact his finance minister had to borrow money to pay march and April 2015 salaries.

I totally agree with you, but in fact neither GEJ nor Obj has gone to jail, the difference BTW them? One left the country far better than he met it, while the other left it far worse than he met it, despite having greater resources.

Your region was a supply route that deserves to be invaded to cut off the supply route.

So bombing cinema houses and markets is your response of cutting supply route?. You Ibos out of envy have always desire to destroy lagos.

Nigeria is nothing but of European making, we have country in the Oyo empire (modern Yoruba and close minorities) and caliphates in the north which can merge as 1, and the east do same. Nigeria splitting won't foster much hate if done with bureaucracy, we have good rapour with Ghana and the rest of them. But Nigeria really needs to split a nation is made of people with close cultural practices, not Nigeria, u imagine 3 super African tribes in 1.let's stop all this desites please

The problem is that with politics and leadership, the Fulani are never qualified except their BORN TO RULE
mentality. They are using religion to deceive the Hausa's and other tribes in the North. In the South, they stir discontent between Yoruba's and Igbo's.

You can trust a Fulani man with anything BUT NOT political power. They are simply not able. That is what you are getting with Buhari. He has a 'supremecist' but utterly clueless on how a country is lead in 21st century and refused to learn.
