The Oodua People’s Congress (OPC) has condemned in strong terms the recent back out on regionalisation of Nigeria, by some northern elders, as generally agreed at the 2014 National Conference organised by the last administration.

Rising from an emergency meeting on Sunday, OPC described the pronouncement of the northern elders an affront to the collective psyche of the generality of the masses, accusing Northern elites of acting like they own Nigeria.

The group posited that regionalism was the minimum option for a united Nigeria, failure which the country would be heading towards the path of disintegration.

The northern elders’ declaration came days after the British and the French envoys to Nigeria canvassed a one indivisible Nigeria, even at a time when self-determinism is gaining ground across the world, including Britain.

In a statment signed by the National Coordinator of Oodua People’s Congress (OPC) Otunba Gani Adams, and made available to DAILY POST, the group condemned the pronouncement of the Arewa elders, saying it was a call for anarchy in a country in dire need for actions.

According to Adams, the declaration of the northern elders is mere figment of their own imagination that cannot represent the stance of the majority of northerners, nay the generality of the citizens of the country, particularly at this point of palpable lop-sidedness and leadership inequalities.

“We view the recent back out of some northern elders on the resolution for regionalisation of the country as panacea for a stronger Nigeria as a gross display of irresponsibility, reckless approach to sensitive matter bothering on national security cum unity and an affront on the collective psyche of Nigerians.

“The agreement to the regionalisation of the country after failed attempts to unite the country in the past was a collective one at a rare seating where every ethnic nationalities that make up the country had the rare chance to sit together to discuss the future of the country.

“To now make a detour at this time that the country is almost approaching a brick wall on the path of national cohesion is simply unpatriotic.

“We are not unaware of the desperate moves going on underground by a cabal that have all the while constituted the tail wagging the dog of unity in Nigeria, that are so comfortable with the lingering lopsided presidential system that is deliberately skewed to favour indolence and evil manipulations that allows a few to benefit at the expense of others.

“Let it be known to those supporting the continuation of the current locust regime that the only alternative to regionalisation of Nigeria is self-determination.

“Nigeria started with a system that allowed each region to develop at its own space and the Yoruba benefitted a lot from the system which promoted hard work and rapid development across the country.

“We built our nation to be the pride of the world under that system and as such tip it as the minimum condition for our unity in diversity, as a country.

“Let the message be sounded in the ears of those scheming to promote laziness and stampede the entire populace in their desperate bid to continue to hold the country back on the path of development and accelerated pace in the march towards global advancements, that they will not succeed,” Adams concluded.

They are acting that way because the person at the helm of affairs is so tribalistic and wicked. he is a leader who cares only about his bloodsucking brothers who always unleash terror across the nation.


We just have some bastard youths supporting their terror activities online. That's why we are not progressing as a country.
21st century my country cannot maintain 5hours constant electricity when they have all the sources of electricity abundantly .. hydro,gas,turbine,coal and so many others.

We all own Nigeria

OPC good morning.

And southern Nigerian elders assisted them by behaving like they have beg them for bread.

AS IF they are just waking up after 50years. ....YORUBA and their hypocrisy and slave mentality!

Afonjas preaching and forming regionalism because of Lagos....
Just know that the day we go into a regional govt. Lagos will fall flat....because the south south will want to develop their seaport and the south east will key into it because it is closer to them......Every airport in SS and SE will start operating international plight full time overnight.

Why won't they when your people voted for them

OPC leave matta for Mathias

OPC is shouting as if northerners are no longer their slave master's, when their masters shout now they will all take cover.

Irony is when you look down upon Arewa, you call them backward illiterates and what not, yet you can't do anything to actualize your objectives.
All this cry of restructuring or break up by the south is mere blackmail. They are not serious about it.
By the way Arewa never wanted this your one Nigeria in the first place! Awo and Zik did all they could to convince the north to be part of you guys.

Don't mind them, eye service.

Meanwhile who among you own this $43 million loot-Efcc

Tinubu's selfish political empire is more important now than liberation of yoruba common man. he has sold them to slavery over his selfish ambition which he will never realise (to become president). OPC, direct your anger to Tinubu

I support OPC & Afenifere anytime, any day. Only the Yorubas got arrested during the fight between Hausa & Yoruba in Ile-Ife but Afenifere fought for the 21 detainees of which 15 people has been released & the remaining 6 shall be released in no time.

As usual what you people are known for


You might betray your people unconsciously just to satisfy your slave masters

if one person (Tinubu) can leed an entire race to the slaughter house just for selfish interest

Tinubu is just a single person out of millions of Yoruba! I can tell you categorically that large percentage of Yoruba now see Tinubu as a useless thing. As at now, he is irrelevant in the face of Afenifere & OPC. Reasonable Yorubas now speaks with one voice

The Northern "leaders" lack refinement.

Their manners, habits, and character, or mode of thinking undervalues and despises the conviviality, kindness and the skill of living together in harmony which the Southern leaders try to develop.

Minus the tactless, shallow, and reprehensible comments they make on a daily basis, Nigeria will not be at the melting point she is today. The northern leaders are of smugly narrow mind. Their comments are testament of that.

The southerners are the complete opposite. Were it not for the peaceful disposition of the southerner, this country would have long been set on fire.

Not even the devil riles me half as much as those brainless mofos do.

The OPC more than has a point!

forget political correctness, the north actually owns Nigeria

The truth is that you are not Yoruba... most of you are an illiterate abo.ki posing as yoruba....And I guess, you BMC also paid the owner of NL to allow you people propagate your evil propaganda against those you people love to hate...but I bet, you one day, the true Nigerians will be redeemed from your evil agendas

I want to have my own country. @bokis are nothing but parasites who are good at nothing but exploitation, yet they have nothing meaningful to contribute.
This contraption should split into pieces, everybody should answer his father's name.
Simple !

Adam's spoke with double edged mouth.. AREWA had speaks what northerner wanted and you're saying she's not speaking the mind of core North I beg Adams watched your load and let other do for themselves Nigeria has disintegrated in spirit, what we have at hand now is caricatures waiting to collapsed any moment.

Is Yorubas in a recovery part

Hello Opc youth aka afonjas what is your take on this matter

You are becoming unbelievably harsher on the North lately. Are you missing something bro.

So why are your people against restructuring? You people always prove Kanu right through your actions and after you people are still the ones that​ will turn around and call him a terrorist.

Lol.

It's just, it gets to a point where you have it up to here. I've always been critical of the northern leaders. But they seem to say all the wrong things more often lately.

I've always had the conviction that the human soul is essentially one, bar some physical differences.

But then, those nonentities mean nobody well. They have their people languishing in poverty and ignorance while they themselves go about disturbing our space, destroying everything that was built.

You need to converse with some of them personally to get my drift. There's not enough space here to contain their nonsense! That boastful attitude is the hallmark of the crude.

I've always been of the opinion that we are ruled by idiots!

...victim mentality is sublime to YORUBA's ridiculous slave mentality when juxtaposed.
