Yoruba leaders across political divides in Nigeria are coming together under the ”Yoruba Patriots Movement” to present a common front in negotiations and alliances to reposition the South West ahead of 2019 general elections.

Rising from a National Colloquium held in Ibadan, the capital of Oyo State, notable Yoruba leaders of thoughts agreed that there was an urgent need for the Yoruba nation to be united and present a common agenda for sectoral improvement especially in education.

The National Colloquium with the theme, ‘Resetting the Yoruba Nation’s Agenda for Rapid. Systematic and sustainable Development’, brought together notable leaders of thought in Yoruba land across several party platforms.



The National coordinator of the group Dr. Dosu Ladipo, laid emphasis on the agenda for the forum.

The Chairman of the Colloquium, Bisi Akande, said it was time to close ranks and put forward a Yoruba agenda capable of achieving even development of the region and engendering National progress.

In their separate presentations, Ambassador Yemi Faronbi and Dr. Kunle Olajide bemoaned the state of the Yoruba race in the present day Nigeria, claiming that the race has become a target for oppression and is being neglected.

Okay

I think there is no single real leader in yoruba land.

They are doing politics for politics sake.

All these fake movements and groups being formed up and down


They do not represent the real Yoruba people



I wish one man could be nominated as Yoruba spokes person, someone who wouldn't have a selfish agenda


These people are just disgracing us

Ya, yoruba and north can win election for the north. If yoruba present a presidential candidate, North and SE/SS will also go ahead and produce a president for the north too. 2015 election is a death sentence to southern presidency by yorubas
