I have always wondered why we like to fight and kill each other over politics in the south west, i have not heard of violence in Anambra all through but same cant be said of Ekiti, osun and even ogun that would not not hold elections this year.

What is the problem? Sane contributions only.

It is the blowback from the corrupt electoral system foisted on the region from Abuja .
When the electoral register is as bad as it is,
You can always expect to gangster within the process.
you can also expect the people to react to the actions of the gangsters

Operation Wetie Wetie, Akintola VS Awolowo.
Just a normal Yorubas way of Life, Culture

Am Nwa'fo Igbo, and not Yoruba. But I hate it when we make blanket accussations like this. Although we've recorded more thuggery and violent disagreements in anything group in the SW (politics, labour, unions, etc). But I think the issue is not entirely a SW issue. There's also political disagreement in other parts of Nigeria that've resulted at some points to violence, SS, SE, NE, NC, NW, everywhere.

The OP sounded like a Yoruba, and someone has been quick to remind him Awolowo-Akintola debacle and the fight in the Western House of Assembly back in the days due to Coca-cola and the other gains-related fued. I'd suggest that when next you want to discuss such unpatriotic issues about a people you belong with, you should try to be a bit diplomatic else you set yourself up for a tribal debate here on NL that'll end up hurting your tribal dignity. (Not that you should brazenly defend evil, pls).

Just my little piece of advice.
