South south has world class technocrats that merit the position of SGF in abundance. I never advocated for d appointment of a dunce frm south south as SGF. Five regions are now well represented at the federal level, so my call for the appointment of a south southerner as SGF is legitimate and in order.

[b] Real identity My mother is from Iseyin in Oyo State, while my father is from Ilorin in Kwara State. My great-great grandfather originated from Mali and I am talking about some 150 to 200 years ago. And they are Fulani and that is where we got our Fulani connection from. My great grandfather settled in Ilorin preaching the religion of Islam. A section of Ilorin came from Gwandu and they were religious, but my people came there as practising Muslims from Mali with their own Quran. In fact, the Emir and I used to joke that we had our own Quran and that nobody gave us Quran. My great-grandfather brought our own Quran to Ilorin from Mali to Agbaji where we settled. The Agbaji quarters is about 200 to 300 years old. Over the years, religious piety and devotion have led the prohibition of drumming (in whatever circumstance) in the area. But because of our connection with the Southern people, a lot of Yoruba are always in Ilorin and so we speak the same language. If you look at the Ilorin people, the real Ilorin people like Saraki for example, the culture and their ways share affinity with those of the far Northern Nigeria. That accounts for the difference you observe between us and, particularly, people of the South-West, despite the existence, now, of Yoruba as a common language. I leave people to say whatever they like about me. Some people even say I am from Ogun State and some even say I am from Togo but I know where I am from. Even, not long ago, I had a letter inviting me to join in the formation of a Mali- Fulani Organization and that I should be its chairman. What about your ancestral lineage? People have accused you of bearing Alhaji Abubakar Saraki when you needed votes from the North, Chief Olusola Saraki when you needed votes from the South-West and in the South-East and South-South, you answered Dr. Sola Saraki. How do you reconcile these differences? People are just reading political meanings to my actions. My Islamic name is Abubakar. When were growing up in Lagos in those days, unless you were a Christian or bore a native indigenous name, you couldn’t get a school. If I wanted to be admitted to a school, I had to drop Abubakar in favour of Sola as virtually all the schools belonged to Christian organizations. It is not correct that I was changing names to garner votes. Politicians invent those kinds of stories against their opponents. You, yourself, should know who you are. [/b]

The only real position you have is 2 which was not won by him anyway.
And given the signs, it is going to be a very wasted number 2.
The last time i checked, saraki is not yoruba.
Your attache by force is stupidd.
You can have number 5 since you value it so much.
It's more or less irrelevant and can afford to go to any bloody nigga.
And it is actually 6 not 5.

Does the name BUKOLA sound fulani or hausa to you? dullard

The druglords, looters, child-molesters parading as leaders and elder statesmen may just have shielded themselves from the whips of Buhari's anti-corruption lashes as a result of this election.

Good God!! How did we get ourselves right back into this mess!!!! I mean, even if EFCC finally indicts saraki, the vice-president is a PDP!!!

It is finished! cry cry

Now that you are back in opposition, you can start slaughtering Nigerians in the South West in order to scare them to vote for another round of your "change".

Did you read the post above you?

How do you determine someone's heritage for him?

Bukola's father, Oloye Olusola Saraki, said they are Fulani from Mali.

How does the sound of a name make a tribe?

Is Rotimi Amaechi also Yoruba?

Is Mustapha Chike-Obi a Hausa?

What does Saraki mean in Yoruba by the way?

I was even amazed at most people saying Kwarans are not yoruba I can't imagine kwara people reading this and they won't laugh at you guys. Back to the matter it is the the zoning of the political sphere that made kwara state to fall under North Central but ethnically and historically Kwara belong to the Yoruba lineage and nothing can never ever change that not even the geo-political zone. This is a fact, I have kwarans as colleagues, even as inlaws and I believe we all have kwara indigenes around us you just walk up to anyone of them I tell them they are not from Yoruba heritage lolzz! I bet you won't like the kind of reply they will give to you immediately just because they hate it when people disassociate them from Yoruba Kingdom. This is a fact just ask any kwarans around you and you will know how far lolzz!

Saraki means "important" in Yoruba

Does it mean "important" or you assume it means "important" just because it sounds like "pataki".

Or simply because Oloye himself was an important person and the name came to be associated with an "important personality".

Which of the Yoruba dictionaries can you recommend Sir?

How come it's only this family that is "known" with this "important" name?

Saraki doesn't sound same as Pataki

One is do-do-mi the other is do-do-do

I'm core Oyo and with deep understanding of Yoruba

Saraki means important person like Gbajumo

In a sentence: Gbogbo Awon Saraki ilu Ibadan lo pejo sibi igbeyawo Ojo ATI aina

That's an ignorant statement to make

Oduduwa was from middle east, fani Kayode family are historically Tapa from Niger state.

Before the Europeans came many people migrated and mingled with yorubas.

Some people in Lagos island are historically Baribas, Brazilians.

His ancestors migrated from Mali 200yrs ago doesn't stop him from being Yoruba
