Buhari is one of a kind, it doesn't matter why we support him, what matters is what that support will bring to yorubaland

Expantiate further on what buhari hopes to do for your Yoruba land.

And before you do that be reminded that it is your national anthem to go against ND and Biafra own demands.

Why then should the better south support you in your selfish quest while you go about castigating their own desires and aspirations?

Hedonistically:

Every where I go to - every random bar or lounge, street corner, academic setting of so called intellectuals, or corporate forum... it appears that most Yoruba people are adamant that Buhari is working. It is almost unbelievable. Now I understand why some people accuse them of being political and social slaves to the North.

What has Buhari done for Yorubaland to deserve such extreme level of zombie-like followership?
This is a veiled attempt to cause tribal war! Why r guys obsessed with yorubas, perhaps it disturbs u more than even ur wellbeing!! The stranger u called ur son (GEJ) despite his utter failure, a man who could not provide: road, portable water and electricity to his own village Otuoke, but was busy doling $Bdollors to dasuki and yet u guys were supporting him, was GEJ suffering from psychopath? Dis same promised in 2011 if he does not construct second Niger bridge b4 2015 he should be treated like an outcast, what did GEJ do for Igbos that u guys were blind folded supporting him?

Even the die hard Northerners are openly disappointed in buhari.

The question the OP is asking is amidst all the rubbish from buhari why are yorubas adamant at his gross eff ups and still behaving as if they are still on Sai Baba mode?

Yeah right.

In fact we are all lined up, stones in hand ready to pounce on the farmer from Daura.

The mind is indeed a terrible thing to waste.

Some Yorubas are really incredible... claiming sophistication on empty stomach just the same way Awolowo did only to be stripped at the end.

Some of them ask what Gej did for the Igbos that make us like and support him.... quite funny and ridiculous question.

Well it's on record that Gej open Igbo land to the rest of the world by giving us an international Airport.... what others denied us for ages. even if this is the only thing we benefited from the government of Jonathan, it's enough to praise him.

Now the question I have for the Yorubas is this... If igbos are wrong in supporting Jonathan who could only give them an international airport, what did Obasanjo did for the Yorubas in his 8 uninterrupted years that make you guys adore him

If you think Yoruba's adore him, you are dead wrong. I grew up in Ogun State and can tell you categorically that his political influence is next to nothing. you can even discern that on nairaland here. most yorubas tout names like awolowo and even Fashola during the various ethnic e-wars. Obasanjo bawo?

The man is an enigma. he divides opinions across board. to say he is adored in Yoruba land is a fallacy of hasty generalization.

the yorubas, Igbos and the people of the Niger Delta voted massively for Goodluck Jonathan during his first election.

Voting for Buhari is not about ethnic bigotry. It was just a yearning for a better way of doing things, justified or not.

Personally I turned against GEJ the moment he granted presidential pardon to the late DSP. The straw that broke the camel's back was the fact that Abba Moro remained in position after the immigration recruitment disaster.

Yorubas can make as much excuses as they like..we all know the truth.

Op they support Buhari more than anybody including the North because of the exact thing Daniel1990 stated.....to SAVE FACE!!!!.

They told the nation that Buhari is the messiah that's coming to save the country.
They helped him promise ridiculous, unachievable feat to decieve people.
While doing that, they went around claiming 'political sophisficated' and it's their sophistication have helped them decipher that Buhari is the perfect speciemen for the country's growth.
In addition, they gave the lie that Buhari is an honest, uncorrected leader

Fast forward to now, everything their so called "political high mind" proved to be a load of delusional Bullsh1t. Thus far, Buhari has shown to be the worst president in Nigerian history. His ministries are all inept and incompetent.
To top it all off, the so called "honest, uncorrupt man" ended up being the worst in terms of corruption. Despite the nation in recession, they are still looting likewise his minister.

In other words, yoruba are trying so desperately to sell the image that Buhari is working despite the obvious truth and reality staring at them is because they are desperate to save their face. Since they are the only southern group that fell for Buhari scam, they don't want to show there was a reason all the people they supported in the past failed in the polls. Their so called "political sophistication" they self claimed have thus far been shown to be a load of delusional Bullshit

Not only that, based on their act whenever any SS or SE leader get praised on this forum....how they invade it and start doing some unnecessary dicks measuring thus far shows how Immature and tribalistic they are....they have a huge inferiority complex when it comes to other southern group based on their act thus, like someone said their hatred the give credit to other southern plays a role on their support for buhari. They rather give Buhari delusional applause of progress than give GEJ (anot her southern leader) accolades. Like they are extremely tribalistic. Have you not notice that the only minister in GEJ cabinet that they support was actually one of their own...everybody else they attack even if it's other nation leaders praising them.

Both Daniel1990 and Jengem are accurate in what they said
Rubbish! Yoruba people are independent minded. They are not a bandwagon people. Show me one man from SS or SE that criticizes Buhari like these two Yoruba men, Fayose and FFK.

Daniel1990:
To save faces because they are in this failure together. They help made him president, it is their duty to defend his failure. It is a task that must be accomplish.

I think this is most likely the reason for their irritating and sheepish defence of Buhari. Some of them complain of hardship, and yet they will still tell you that it is not Buhari's fault, that he is working hard to 'fix' Nigeria, which will take time. Such a hopelessly pathetic suffering and smiling mentality.

So when, if ever, will you turn against Buhari... In spite of his colossal failure to manage the economy, resulting in the most rapid inflation ever witnessed in Nigeria within a year; and in spite of his shielding his corrupt appointees such as Abba Kyari, Burantashi, Dambarawo, and so on? Why haven't you turned against him even after learning about his indifferent stance to the illegal CBN and FIRS recruitments which corruptly favoured his relatives and the relatives of other APC stalwarts? What of his tacit approval of Fulani Herdsmen's genocidal activities across Nigeria?

When, my good friend, will you and the rest of Yorubaland turn against Buhari?
Re: Why Does The Average Yoruba Man Support Buhari Even More Than Northerners? by Ngokafor(f): 9:35am On Oct 04, 2016
...To be sincere,the only reason why they support buhari(some,not all) is because of Osibanjo.


..They think that after buhari,Osibanjo would be president..or better still,buhari goes the way of yar adua and Osibanjo becomes the president...but a rude shock awaits them embarassed


..Their support has nothing to do with being sophisticated,progressive, patriotic and 'wanting to try something new'..It is purely for selfish ethnic reasons..


...That is a fact..shalom.

if things continue to go bad, it won't take long my friend. this government has not met the expectations of its supporters so far. its very obvious. but it still has time on its side. I still believe buhari has good intentions

but if he fails for four years or even 3 out of four years, I assure you people will turn against him. that's why we have elections.


As for this talk of yorubas defending buhari. I make bold to say there is no man from any other tribe from any other region that has criticized this regime as much as fayose or fani-kayode. the closest would be reno omokiri and maybe melaye. I can't think of any one from the south east. this shows you that its not about tribe but rather, its about the brain ticking in your head and the heart beating in your chest.

More like denial.

They are like your average wash-wash victim.

They will first deny they've been duped only to later claim they were hoodwinked by some diabolical means but never will they ever accept they have been deceived.

Pride and arrogance precede a great fall.

They will rather defend their wasted vote and come 2019 they will deliberately repeat the same mistake to spite their own shadow.

But the most amusing thing is that whenever I corner a bunch of these sophisticated frogs they always remain mute only to become braggadacious on buhari when they outnumber me by at least 20 to 1.

Forget all these noise makers here.

I have encountered several yoruba NL members in real life after viewing them browsing from their phone and whenever I subtly introduce buhari and APC they always first log off from their device and stare back at me like sheep. It seems their loudmouths end on cyberspace.

I even encountered about 3 of them in a bar in Lekki spewing the same old worn trash that their APC masters now use as an excuse for their failure and when I stylishly joined the conversation from across the bar, they were so chicken sh1t they just shutup and stared back at me.

I have realised that they need their daily therapeutic group sessions of bashing Jonathan in order to console themselves on voting this failure called buhari.

They know they messed up and now all they do daily is to find a reason to defend their wasted vote.

Even here on NL one particular APC zombie was blaming GEJ for giving them no choice than to vote this disaster called buhari.

Believe me, these people struggle to hold their heads up.
If You made the mistake of sliding into a conversation with me concerning this issue, I'll insult you badly and send you away as rudely as I can....... I do it regularly to people like you because I can't stand emotional arguments void of logical points.

Do you think recession that has zero to do with sentiment will magically disappear?

Are you under some pathetic and ridiculous assumption that Buhari will not finish his tenure?

I am intrigued as to what you will gain if some Yorubas stopped stupporting Buhari.
