The Yoruba man is just like any other tribe in the world, want to dominate, control, Mr know all, will never involve himself from unprofitable things, bias, everything you know that mankind have exhibit is all in a typical Yoruba man. They can easily betray you just to protect their interest which is common to human nature.

@ Op, what is your point here? Yorubas made is very clear that they are not voting for GEJ... It's only some paid ones that scream his name, which ofcourse are gluttons that can be found in any tribe....

The SW voted for GEJ in 2011 and we paid the price dearly... This administration is a flop and you don't expect us to continue with it just because we want to play nice..

You guys keep abusing us everywhere and still secretly beg for our votes...

We didn't vote GMB because of tribal issues, we voted for him because he's a man that can strangle corruption and you should do same...

Buhari? Who is bringing buhari here?

Now let's tow that lane. Please lay out your evidence that buhari has what it takes to strangle corruption in Nigeria?

Talk to me directly, I'm not YOU GUYS!!

Nothing was at stake in 2011, we basically did not know Jonathan @ all, I did not even plan to vote in 2011, i only voted to please my swir mum. In those days I don't even talk about politics n I don't even know the name of Lagos state governor.

Today is the decisive moment, it's today that counts.

I'm not a tribalist, I've always supported patience till Nigeria finds the hidden strength in their diversity.

No, You're not. You are a nationalist. Be deceiving yourself

Heard a lot, seen a lot, A man that collected 10% out of his entitlement just because he thinks it should be better spent on the poor is an honest man... Going by what we know him for, he is a disciplinarian who won't allow any one to be cheated...

This is the kind of man that is capable of strangling corruption, a man ready to take actions and won't give excuses for failure.

I can go on and on, but lets leave that for another day, since you stated that you aren't "YOU GUYS", tell me something about this present administration that is worth giving another chance..

I have heard many things about the Yoruba Race, But i have not seen much with my eyes. Within the next 24 - 36 hours i will confirm who the Yorubas really are. They will either turn out as completely intelligent people, Or complete Mor.ons. Time will tell.

What happens decides how i will view and understand them for Life.


U have to understand that the yoruba muslims that are between 40- 50% of yoruba might have voted for buhari.

SW is also controlled by APC

Nigeria is doomed though becuase both ppl are clueless and daft

@op.We are waiting sir.I have said it before that,right from the times of Chief Obafemi Awolowo,remember Ambrose Folorunsho Alli of old Bendel state,the Yoruba race is the only race in Nigeria that relies heavily on its intelligentsia for strategy. The choice of PYO is a perfect compromise between the Yoruba political(political elites are intricately fused to the traditional institutions through APC tickets for princes of first class obas in Yorubaland) and intelligentsia bloc.It's like having the traditional Ogboni establishment and traditional system(King and chiefs) combo!You can't beat such scrutiny system of holding power in trust on the Omoluabi principle!
The heavy investment in tertiary education in the South west isn't for joke!They are the incubating centres of ideas! That's why Abacha wanted to kill the Universities in Yorubaland through denial of subventions!
The day other Nigerian ethnic groups stop looking down on their academics, they will be better.

Let me burst your bubble with the statistics you have right there. I have been to four prominent universities in the East on assignments few years ago; these following universities are all in the East: University of Nigeria(UNN), Michael Okpara University of Agriculture, Federal university of technology Owerri and Nnamdi Azikiwe University. However, few hours on ground in these Universities, the first thing i noticed was their grammatical blunders and horrible Igbotic accent on the lips of all the students I chatted with and the ones passing by; pure unrefined accent that would make any stranger to ask questions as to how they managed to write and pass their English lang exams.

I can authoritatively tell you that I was xtremely disappointed with what I saw; 65% of students in these universities would not have been admitted in the South West universities even in the North...............

Honest kwa!!! But we have more than enough info to suggest to us that buhari is not honest nah his false affidavit n Fake WAEC originals. The story of collecting 10% is 100% un-verifiable.

If buhari strangles, den he will strangle Nigeria n not corruption, corruption is inbuilt in the Nigeria fabric.

I will open a thread here to talk about GEJs achievement, it will marvel u. It's a pity pdp online machinery have not travelled enough or have proper info. Be patient.

No need to tell me about GEJ achievements, I know you will tell me stories about things any president would have done better... Buhari's certificate saga is not an issue bro, how do you expect a person of his calibre not to have WAEC result, that's just something you guys made up to discredit him...
