Jimi Lawal and el-rufai are like Siamese twins. Right from his BPE's days

Jimi was one of his topmost advisers when he was FCT minister and he mentioned him severally in his book - The Accidental Public Servant

You are beginning to sound Ibo, Yoruba's are not known for chest-beating.

How can a LOCAL GOVERNMENT in Kaduna have up to 60% of Yorubas?

Let's just celebrate this novel act in peace and humility bro.



No no, why will be chest beating over the simple fact that Elrufai employed people he feel he can work with.

I am just saying since I came to kaduna for the first time, it feels like home. I like been in the plane and someone speaks yoruba.

I like the fact that a lot of the hausa here speak yoruba, and I said the reason is not fat fetched. There are local governments here dominated by yoruba, I have been around the state, this I got from the hausas I interact with here in kaduna. I also said a lot of them say they speak the language cause of the long interaction with yorubas.

Kaduna is not a no man land, I am not claiming what is not mine pls.

Above all I am not and can never descend to the Igbo chest beating attitude.

The empty chest beaters have a lot to learn from the Yorubas. El-Rufai is a true Nigerian.

There are many non- Yorubas in the Government Cabinet of Yoruba states. There are many non- Hausas in the Government cabinet of Hausa states.


But it is almost imposible for you to find a non-Igbo in the cabinet of any given Igbo state ...... Few years ago, Governor T.A Orji sacked fellow Igbos who werent Abians from the Abia state civil service.


Igbos should learn to be tolerant, hospitable, accomodating and respectful.

If it were to be them....they will say we are going to take over Kaduna State.

You will always be fcuuuked by the El-Rufais. More Alimis are yet to be born in Arewa. One disadvantage is that under one Nigeria, each time you get fcuuuked by the Rufais, the whole of south of Nigeria by extension perceives the bad deal.

No surprise here.

If only you have been to kaduna state.

The Yorubas here are as much as the hausas.

I am currently in a kaduna company and the mallams here greet me in yoruba, plus 30 percent of the staff will be yoruba.

Elrufai biggest supporters online are Yoruba, check twitter.

I am told there are local governments here where yoruba make up 60 percent of the people.

Pls advice to Yorubas, be careful what you say here in yoruba, majority understand yoruba. It happened to me at the airport.


In short he made a good POLITICAL decision for votes.
Thanks.

If only, they know how to beg and whine for positions in other zones but they don't know how to give. Very selfish and tribalistic set

Impressive. President Buhari's ministerial list is expected to prominently feature many Yoruba technocrats.

El-rufai is a shining example of a progressive, sannu da aiki.

Shame on the ibos that tried to put a wedge in our alliance because of the Atiku/Tinubu power struggle.
must u guys mention igbos ïn everything? They must b giving u sleepless nights.

Imagine this kind competition when ur supposed rival is not aware he is competing with u.

How else do you expect el-Rufai to thank Yoruba for helping to bring power back to north? The Rufais, Sanusis and Buharis did everything you can imagine to get power from Jonathan back to north in 2015.

In fact, this na small thank you from Rufai to the SW, more is expected from Rufai.
