Yoruba, Source Of APC's Success In Elections — Gov. Al-Makura by chiefinalowo: 8:45am On Apr 15, 2015 |
NASARAWA State governor and governor-elect, Umaru Tanko Al-Makura, on Tuesday, said the Yoruba race was behind the success recorded by the All Progressives Congress (APC) during the just-concluded general election in the country. The governor, who made this assertion at the Presidential Lodge in Lafia, the state capital, while receiving Yoruba community in the state, led by its president, Afeez Adigun, stressed that the role played by the tribe during the merger process of all opposition parties could not be quantified in terms of naira and kobo. He stressed further that apart from monumental achievements of APC-led governments in various states, which resorted to the success of the party during the elections, Nigerians were truly yearning for change, due to competence and trust they have in the president-elect, General Muhammadu Buhari. Al-Makura, who said he would forever remain grateful to Yoruba race, especially the role it played during his re-election, said despite that the people were not from the state, they appreciated projects executed by his administration in the past three and a half years. Earlier, the leader of the group, who is also the special assistant to the governor, Adigun, said Al-Makura’s enthusiasm for the developmental stride in the state prompted the community to give him and other APC candidates unalloyed supports during the elections. http://tribune.com.ng/news/news-headlines/item/33967-yoruba-source-of-apc-s-success-in-elections-al-makura 35 Likes 7 Shares |

The same way Al-Makura would say if another ethnic group come visiting. I think the merger of ANPP, CPC and ACN to form APC were responsible for their victory. Kudos to Tinubu. First time I'm acknowledging Tinubu, anyway, he did a good job. 98 Likes 6 Shares |

The Yorubas may have helped but APC is an Hausa party, the influence of Yorubas in APC ended when Buhari won the election. The Alhajis are back to take charge. 17 Likes 1 Share |

He's right! Unfortunately for Jonadunce, he not only failed to carry the Yorubas along he also made us his public enemy number one forgetting that the SW cannot be taken for granted because we control the media. Using unprintable adjectives such as "rascals" and "motor park touts" to describe a region who was the main pillar behind your becoming a president when Yar'Adua died was a mistake that shouldn't have occurred. Telling Nigeria that the SE was the region that ensured you won in 2011 was a big slap on the face of the other regions. Add all these to the corrupt practices and insecurity problems of GEJ's regime, you'll realize that failure was imminent. 43 Likes 2 Shares |

Agreed. Down here in the core North, Yoruba politicians are getting popular everyday. I couldn't believe one day a Hausa will put Tinubu's picture as Dp. It's now happening, I'm one of them. All hail the master. Go and Die in the Lagoon if you are Pained 90 Likes 5 Shares

I am not Yoruba but make bold to say that the only reason Nigeria is still one is because of the Yoruba people. The yoruba race was the decider in the last presidential election. The yoruba race used the intsrumentality of the media at their disposal to rubbish GEJ and brought down his regime. take the media not for granted, the media is a split image showing you what they want you to see per time, wether true or false, the media gradually shape your perspective about people, place or thing. From the very first time when GEJ could not stand and support the Yorubas for the position of the speakership but rather blamed it on Tinubu selling out to north. Many Yorubas decided that GEJ was finished. GEJs advisers and political permutators finished him also. they made him think that pleasing the north will make him win 2nd term. The North is power drunk and has always remained so. Wrong permutation if you ask me. If GEJ had done half of what he did to please the north for the yorubas, he would have been re-elected. GEJ pulled back action on insurgency for fear of the north and what they will tag him. He built Almajiri schools and rehabilitated dams all over the north even though it was constitutionally wrong for FG to build elementary schools. He released Almustapha which angered the west..He really did alot to please the north but in my opinion was a wrong political move. He ignored the south west that vehemently cried out on marginalisation of the region in development and political appointments. Politics is like chess. every move matters from the first and you can't ignore the prize of any bad or good move... 56 Likes 4 Shares |

[size=14pt] This is why the Igbo are unnecesarily bitter. They know they can never match the political achievement of we the yorubas. This is why they bitterly call us northern slaves but we don't mind. If they want to be relevant in Nigerian politics, they will have to go beg for forgiveness from Bola Tinubu our humble and tactical leader [/size] 50 Likes 1 Share |
