Restructuring: 100 Yoruba Groups Meet In Ibadan by Urchman27(m): 6:17am On Aug 31, 2017 |
One of the most debated issues at the moment is the clamour for the political restructuring of the country; it has become a singsong. But the debate has attracted diverse views and demands such that there appears to be no clearly defined understanding among Nigerians on what restructuring means and whether it will move the nation forward or disintegrate it. http://sunnewsonline.com/restructuring-100-yoruba-groups-meet-in-ibadan/ 3 Likes 1 Share

Vutseck: lets stop deceiving ourselves restructruring is not a party affair all regions must vote for it and north west with the most number of seats will influence north east and vote no hence why some people want an outright dissolution of the entity just wake up and accept reality its not happening we have been waiting 40 years nothing never happen 72 Likes 10 Shares |

we waste so much time in this Nigeria for almost irrelevant things.. The only body saddled with the responsibility for restructuring is the National Assembly but they have rejected it.. if 10million Yoruba groups like they should meet.. it won't change anything 8 Likes 2 Shares |

Yoruba people in the South-West states namely Oyo, Ogun, Lagos, Osun, Ondo and Ekiti as well as Kogi, Kwara, Edo and Delta This is clear attache by force, I thought Edo and Delta already sent massage to them? They are with former eastern region, when the two states abstained from Southwestern meeting held in Ogun, and attended Eastern meeting, they are still dragging them 45 Likes 12 Shares |

FKO81: Before you get all worked up, the key phrase here is "Yoruba groups." There are native Yoruba minorities found in Edo and Delta states. You can never get any point across, without some ignoramus screaming ATTACHE BY FORCE out of their lungs trying too hard to be relevant. Oh, 100 Yoruba groups from different states meet in Ibadan, it must be ATTACHE BY FORCE! I suppose you are from the East and we all know the classic attache by Biafrans who are trying to force an identity on ethic groups that were never part of the old Eastern region or Declared Biafria. 32 Likes 4 Shares |

I wonder why leaders don't know how to achieve things successfully in this nation when its forvtge general good. restructuring cab be achieved. meet with the Yoruba senators and representatives and governors. marshal your points to them and let them present it in the house. let them lobby other senators. meet with prominent obas and let them carry all the emirs and ezes along and present the benefits to them. this will go a long way in making them lean towards restructuring. this should be a selfless service that can be done. Igbo leaders can consult other leaders about Biafra. make your points to them why you need Biafra. people should learn consultations and lobbying in this 21st century not preaching hate and shouting on the pages of newspapers. carry people along and stop this defeatist ideology of the north can never agree to restructuring and Biafra. to me, its a big lie. 11 Likes 2 Shares |

To start with, l will say God bless Nnamdi Kanu for giving Yorubas a voice. What l will tell Yorubas is to be resolute and speak out because Hausa Fulani are human beings. They should not be afraid of them. Igbos have taken their position as big brothers. Yorubas should understand that putting Fulani man as the head of the ports in Yoruba land since indipence is an abbaration. Why cant Yorubas fight to be incharge of the coast line and ocean given to them by God. The problem an Igbo man has with Yorubas is allowing the fulanis whose population is less than 8millon to control a country with almost 200million people. Why cant they be challanged. If Yorubas can wake up work for Oduduwa republic, do you think this minority fulanis can stand the heat? come on! If you are happy with the stuttus quo, why not keep quiet and allow the SS and SE champion the move instead jumping from one place to another condemning those who are ready to give their life so that you can be free. Fulanis are powerless if the south are united. They will beg for restructuring if we are united. Thats why Igbos always call you cowards because non of you is ready to die for their children to live a better life. 69 Likes 9 Shares |

Ojukwu was a super hero who took just one look at Nigeria and discovered that it will never work. He used diplomacy, no way, he stood up and fought, and it was the same yorubas that stabbed him at his back, If Yorubas couldnt declare Oduduwa in 1967, they will never have the backbone to do it again. There are many things that happened in that era that should have encouraged Yorubas to seek self determination, but they didnt 1) The Northerners went to Ibadan and killed the Governor of the Western Region, Lt Colonel Fajuyi. This singular act of sacrilege on Yoruba soil, to such a highly placed Yoruba son should have been the final straw for Yorubas. They should have risen up against the excesses of the North along with the Igbos, but they did nothing. When the Northerners realised that Yorubas had no fight in them, it emboldend them to do much worse. 2) Brigadier Ogundipe officially became 'acting head' of state with the disappearance of Ironsi. He should have been confirmed head of state with confirmation of Ironsi's death as the highest ranking military officer after Ironsi (Ogundipe was the only Brigadier-General in the Nigerian Army at the time). The Northerners drove Ogundipe out of Lagos, Yoruba land, and banished him to London where he was summarily retired. Again, the Yoruba nation should have risen up in defence of their land and son. They did nothing. Today, if Igbos call Lagos 'no mans land', the average Yoruba man will be offended. But when Brigadier Ogundipe was been harrased out of Lagos by the North, no Yoruba man said a word. 3) Colonel Adebayor replaced Fajuyi as Governor of the western Region. Adebayor never slept in Government House because he was afraid that the Northerners would come and slaughter him like they did Fajuyi. Yorubas were held hostage in their own land. 20 years later, the Northerners kidnapped and slaughtered MKO Abiola. As usual, nothing happend. I laugh when Yorubas talk about Oduduwa Republic or restructuring, I dont think they realise that it takes more than 'mere talking' to achieve independence. 53 Likes 10 Shares |

Its easier for the country to be broken up than for restructuring to happen cos Hausa Fulani hegemons won't allow it. The truth is northern leaders don't want development for their region nor for others. They prefers to sacrifice development, education, security of their people for a continuous power grab at the centre. 10 Likes 1 Share |
