Until he is sacked and the entire editorial team overhauled, Yorubas are not going to forget nor forgive. Vanguard has been consistent in assisting that section of the country to dish out hate speeches towards other ethnic groups in Nigeria since the fall of Jonathan's government. They did it in the hey days of that Lunatic-Nnamdi Cownu ill-advised agitation. They did it with INNOSON's Case with GTB. They do it anytime somebody from the east is charged with crime, no matter the prima facie that may have been established by the prosecutor against the accused. They rally people against the government through lies and falsehood. But with this reckless comment from one their trainees against the peace loving Yoruba ethnic group, THEY HAVE FINALLY MET THEIR WATERLOO. 201 Likes 25 Shares |

I don't blame him though. When you overpraise your tribe to the extent that it brings down the other tribes, you inevitably open up your tribe to public ridicule and insults. 47 Likes 7 Shares |

Mr Ochereome Nnanna is the Chairman Editorial Board of Vanguard Newspapers. He is also apparently an ethnic bigot who could not hide his hatred for the Yoruba race due to the June 12 recognition of Chief MKO Abiola, GCFR. In a comment on Facebook, Mr Nnanna referred to the Yorubas as “Sophisticated Morons”! I wouldn’t have made an issue of this because I understand that emotions were rife but considering the sensitive position he occupies, I feel it is dangerous for this nation for a man who directs the editorial board of a national newspaper to be this hate filled. The management of Vanguard Newspapers need to call Mr Nnanna to order or reconsider his fitness for such a sensitive role. With this level of unveiled disdain for a race, it is difficult for anyone to expect any neutrality or fairness from Vanguard Newspapers. If this nation means anything to you, please share this until the Management of Vanguard Newspapers does something about Mr Nnenna’s attitude. We should stop condoning bigots in positions of authority. Nigeria belongs to ALL of us! " 72 Likes 15 Shares |

So when will he be relieved of his duties? The igbo people just gave Buhari a 2nd term on a platter of gold. The nation has no choice but to suffer for the hate of the igbos. 62 Likes 6 Shares |

I expect his resignation not later than Monday.. A secular country like Nigeria has to show zero telorance for Bigotry in any form and that's why some of us will never ever tolerate that devil in Aso Rock called Buhari who is the apogee of nepotism and bigotry . 21 Likes |

CilicMarin: I am of the opinion that he is entitled to his private conversation, as many on this forum are entitled to same to which they do so without restraint. The only problem is he was too stupid not to realise he did not have anonymity. One then wonders who truly is the moro.n? 65 Likes 2 Shares |

This incident is a sad development quiet alright but the seed of discord have sown right from the foundation of Nigeria which have continued up to this day. What more hate speech/comments have not seen from the APC & supporters esp.desecrating the office of the president with all manner of unimaginable & unprintable insults From Buhari himself to Lai Muhammed,El-Rufai Amaechi,Woke Soyinka etc.Even the OP, Buhariguy among many supporters of the govt.though intolerant of any anti-Buhari comment on this forum are notorious for venting their minds by insults while the mods turn a blind eye. We're all guilty of the same offense but let's make effort to stop it. 10 Likes 2 Shares |
