sukkot: Òbó ni o para è! Lying propagandist! N.B: The essence of this information is mainly to expose the lies of the notorious history distortionists and wicked propagandists who insult and malign others continually with lies and falsehood, and shout and make much noise on every available media. This a tribe that is after all well known for being loose cannons. Uncouth, uncivilised and disrespectful set of people who made a career out of abuse and slurs. The same treacheerous beings who precipitated the January 1966 coup and the 1967-70 civil war with their bloody 'Operation Wetie ' in the SW. They start trouble and heat up the polity only to run cowardly to hide in their evil Soka forest when the jungle matures. "Operation Wetie" in Yoruba means wet a human being and his/her properties with petrol and set them ablaze. YORUBAS ARE THE PROBLEM WITH NIGERIA - By Sanusi Lamido In sum, the Yoruba political leadership, as mentioned by Balarabe Musa, has shown itself over the years to be incapable of rising above narrow tribal interests and reciprocating goodwill from other sections of the country by treating other groups with respect. Practically every crisis in Nigeria since independence has its roots in this attitude. * The Yoruba elite and area-boy politics; * Igbo marginalisation and the responsible limits of retribution; and * The Yoruba Factor and "Area-boy" Politics. My views on the Yoruba political leadership have been thoroughly articulated in some of my writings, prime among which was " Afenifere: Syllabus of Errors" published by This Day (The Sunday Newspaper) on Sept 27, 1998. There was also an earlier publication in the weekly Trust entitled " The Igbo, the Yoruba and History" (Aug. 21, 1998)... Being Excerpts from A Paper Presented At The “National Conference On The 1999 Constitution” Jointly Organised By The Network For Justice And The Vision Trust Foundation, At The Arewa House, Kaduna From 11th –12th September, 1999. http://www.nigerianbulletin.com/threads/yorubas-are-the-problem-with-nigeria-by-sanusi-lamido-sanusi-elombah-com.111348/ REMI FANI KAYODE, AKINTOLA, AWOLOWO, WESTERN REGION AND THE CRISIS THAT TRUNCATED THE FIRST REPUBLIC These captains of the “tribalism industry” have good incentives to always omit the causes of the January 1966 coup preferring instead to dwell only on the coup itself. The reason is simple; It was in their own Western region then known as the “wild wild west” that election rigging, thuggery, violence, arson, mass murders and other forms of corruption and acts of lawlessness that occasioned the January 1966 coup took place as pioneering acts in Nigeria. Soon after Nigeria got independence the Western region was in turmoil. Premier Ladoke Akintola and Chief Obafemi Awolowo became embroiled in a protracted crisis. By 1962 the crisis led to sustained violence and acts of lawlessness with law makers engaged in vicious physical combats in the Western regional parliament. Amongst serious injuries and other damages, the mace of office was broken. The federal government intervened to curb the lawlessness and violence by imposing a state of emergency and appointing Dr Moses Majekodunmi as interim premier of the Western region on the 29th of June 1962. This became the first imposition of a state of emergency in Nigeria’s history due to heightened levels of lawlessness. Following an alliance between Akintola and Ahmadu Bello, Ladoke Akintola was returned to power on the 31st of December 1962 in spite of protests by Dr Nnamidi Azikiwe who requested fresh elections rather than reinstating Ladoke Akintola. By 1963, the plot between Akintola, Tafawa Balewa and Ahmadu Bello was perfected and Chief Obafemi Awolowo was arrested for coup plotting/ treason. His trial commenced in earnest and he was alongside some accomplices convicted for treason and jailed for 10 years. This again was the first alleged coup plotting and conviction in Nigerian history. Intent on totally decimating Chief Awolowo, Ladoke Akintola together with vice premier Remi Fani Kayode went into a political alliance with Prime minister Tafawa Balewa and new political party known as the Nigerian National Alliance (NNA) was formed. By this time Dr Nnamidi Azikiwe had realised the folly of entering a coalition with Tafawa Balewa’s government and teamed up with incarcerated Chief Awolowo’s Action group to form the all progressive grand alliance (UPGA). In 1964, federal elections became due. As usual ethnic chauvinism, intimidation and violence was part of the frenzied campaigning. Remi Kayode and Akintola’s campaign was as usual almost entirely based on tribalism. When the elections were finally held, it was massively rigged in the Western region. Indeed deputy premier Remi Fani Kayode had famously boasted that “there is nothing they can do, whether they vote us or not, we will win.” This statement turned out to be true as massive rigging was orchestrated in the elections. Once again this became the first pioneering act of election rigging by indigenous actors in Nigeria’s history. The announcement of the rigged election results quickly sparked off unprecedented acts of thuggery, violence, arson, mass murders and general acts of lawlessness in the Western region. Daily mass murders and arson became routine in the Western region (wetie). This violence and lawlessness in the Western region was to continue from 1964 until 1966 when the military lost patience and finally struck. The Western region was thus a region in crisis from the onset of post-colonial rule. By the time of the military coup, Chief Obafemi Awolowo himself was incarcerated for treason and the region was practically on an uncontrollable violence and trajectory of self destruction for almost two years from 1964 to 1966. At the same time that the Western region was aflame the Eastern region was calm and democratic. Unlike the Western region there were no cases of election rigging, thuggery or other such acts of lawlessness in the East. In the North there was sporadic violence in the TIV division which was put down by the military. Of all the regions, the western region was torn the most by crisis and acts of lawlessness which eventually occasioned the coup. If the leadership of the Western region had played by the rules and avoided the infighting, the election rigging, the thuggery, the planning of a coup in 1963, the arson, the mass murders and other such corrupt acts and vices many of which were being introduced for the first time in Nigeria and which incidentally continues to haunt the nation to date, there would have been no coup and Nigeria would no doubt have immensely benefited from a functional democracy devoid of election rigging, thuggery and violence as it obtains in many progressive nations around the world. The leadership of the Western region in conspiracy with Prime Minister Tafawa Balewa and Ahmadu Bello are singularly responsible for the events and crisis that truncated the first republic and ruined the nation. Those who carried out the coup choose to act out of genuine anger and frustration at the carnage in the Western region. Whatever the demerits of the coup, It is obvious the coupists had nothing to gain other than the patriotic urge to end the corruption and lawlessness that had taken hold of the nation particularly the Western region. Yorubas created the crisis that occasioned the coup and whose region the coup saved from self destruction are some of the biggest ungrateful noisemakers who peddle the propaganda of colouring an anti corruption revolutionary coup with patriotic ideals very similar to that of Flt Lt Jerry Rawlings in a tribal garb. In Ghana, Jerry Rawlings led a coup that eliminated three former heads of state, top military officers and top members of the judiciary. Not one of those killed was from Jerry Rawlings Ewe tribe, but Ghanaians didn’t spew tribalism into the coup and Ghana is better for it. With too many vultures and opportunists...preying on tribalism in Nigeria the story was bound to be different and thus a coup driven out of patriotism and obvious anger at the state of affairs was reconstructed as an Igbo coup and the worms were let out from the woodwork. |

shachris: The truth is everybody knows this is true but NO yoruba will never say this. All they do pray for Igbo down fall so that they can steal what belongs to the Igbo and pretend to be fellow christians with Igbos. This is exactly why Nnamdi Kanu detests yorubas. Their pastors know these truths but since it's "Omo- Ibo" they will never say it. How many yoruba pastors with a good number of Igbo congregation have come out to condemn the marginalization of Igbos in the House of rep where yorubas have 2 principal offices while Igbos have. Greedy wolves. Later Old pho.o.ls like GspotAngela alias KinkyAngela alias Seggegs will come here and ask why Nnamdi kanu hates yoruba christianity. The Answer is simple your pastors are fraudulently wicked, Igbos are beginning to trust fulani muslims( at least we know where they stand) than yoruba christians. I have declared in my family that any relative of mine that attends a yoruba church will now have it rough with me. Let us know where we all stand and confront ourselves with the truth. 1 Like |

AshiwajuFoward: Loud mouthed, noise-makers and double-twisted tongued hypocrites! You whine, weep, wail, yell, curse and gnash your teeth whenever you hear that Igbos seek to have a separate existence as if your whole essence in life is being taken away! Yaribanza - lily-livered treacheerous beings, rather than support an industrious people that seek their own country, they would whine, weep, wail, yell, curse and gnash their teeth, yet the confused hypocrite above wrote that thrash above to console himself and his greedy parasitic tribe! Any time Igbos cough Biaf... Yorubas shiver and catch cold with thick catarrh running down their smelly noses; they become angry and bitter, and they begin to advance silly reasons why such seeking of self determination cannot work - a case of weeping more than bereaved! Yorubas take to the media, hiding under fictitious and fraudulent names, masquerading as minority tribes, Delta-Igbos, Rivers-Igbos, and others. They resort to distorting facts, slandering Igbo people, distorting and rewriting history, fanning the embers of hatred and acrimony to demonise Igbos before other people, just to make themselves feel better. You will read and hear stupidd rantings from the disgruntled Yorubas like - Igbos will lose their properties and wealth in other regions; Igbos will starve and suffer; Igbos are not one; Igbos don't have oil; Igbos are only interested in Niger-delta oil; Igbos want to drag other minority tribes along; Igboland is landlocked. Greedy, treacheerous ingrates who have wrecked this country with their ruthless treasury-looting of our commonwealth! Other Nigerians are wiser! |

pafpatmo:Some of you just come online to spew bunkum. Do you expect everybody in a country to vote for one candidate? Jonathan really set a precedence: Gen Gasua contested against him and even supported the candidacy of Atiku acrimoniously, yet Jonathan appointmented him in his cabinet. Those who are sharing political appointments according to voting patterns should remember that in 1999, 2007 and 2011 Buhari won in NW, NE and part of NC, yet they were not discriminated against in political appointments by Jonathan who they did not vote for. |

The west and the core north have set a very bad precedence. I do not think they understand the future implications. What many nigerians forget is that despite the fact that many parts of the north did not support Gej in 2011, the north still produced the senate president and speaker and no zone was marginalised.The north was infact, given many key appointments while Gej who appointed few of his people was being blackmailed. Buhari and Tinubu has just dug their pit, i do not expect a stable national assembly throughout his tenure. 1 Like |
