There is nothing Yoruba will lose if Nigeria split but we don't need that because one region depends on others but through real federalism everything will be taking care of. The example is United Kingdom. In UK, England, Scotland, Wales and Ireland stand on their own which everyone is governing herself. Look at this world cup, other three countries did not qualified apart of England and UK did not put the bording on other countries because nothing concerned them. I think regionalism is the best for this country because we will still be useful to each other in future and with that Africa will also benefit from it.

izombie:
This is purely my own thinking. I believe that the yorubas will benefit the most if nigeria were to split. With lagos alone any country can stand. You already have industries/companies in the south west, you have seaport and international airport. You have international companies based in the south west and you have lagos. Oduduwa republic can become the most powerful in africa if managed well. I still don't understand why the yorubas still want to remain in nigeria with nigeria the way it is. What do the yorubas stand to lose if nigeria splits? Nigeria isn't working and will never work as it is. As an igbo man, when i look at what will happen if nigeria splits i see that the yorubas are already placed for such an occurence. So why aren't they pushing for that?? Is there something i am missing here?
NB. This is just my personal opinion.. No insults intended. If you have a different view to mine please share without insults.

izombie:

justtoodark:
una no dey shame....kissing butts upandan...northerners una beg,deltans now yorubas.....

chaiii...people of no shame and of no dignity....

Yorubas don't have any self determination, even if you give them all the economy of the world, they still will not be able to be on their own

Even their father chased the Oyo Empire from here to present day Togo j7st because they have to be with people.

Yoruba doesn't have what it takes to go it alone

Lipscomb:
Because your so call Biafra republic can't do in isolation.

izombie:
i hear you. But the hausa fulani can never agree to regionalism. They can't refuse everything they don't want. So how do we change that?

otosa:
I think you are making a mistake here, Yoruba people are asking for restructuring which will allow regional system of Government not to split like Igbos want it. But you are pointing finger on Yoruba but how many Igbo Governors want this development, apart of Governor of Bayelsa in South South and Governor of Anambra in South East, believe me others governor do not Support, instead they are asking for devolution of power.

phase1:


But they believe they can why not also believe your oduduwa can do same.Biafran pains shouldnt be yours.

Abi dem swear for oduduwa with perpetual dependence ni?

Lipscomb:
how old are you kid? No nation can do in isolation even the might America can't do in isolation. Talk on third world country.

phase1:


Are americans begging to be united with china and russia because they don't want to be in isolation. You muslims and your anti-logic. Always pretending to be clever with an empty skull.

dawno2008:
Nice write up,you have every right to use your brains,and that's more reason why the Africa continent is still backward.

Please can somebody tell me the population of wales,Scotland,and Ireland,and these places are called nations,just imagine the size and population of Iceland,still they are recognized in the league of nations.

But the problem with the black man is that he allows outsiders do the thinking for them,and most importantly the greed and wickedness of the Africa leaders.

The yoruba nation is about 40 million people,but they are still regarded as a tribe,whoes fault is that?
Simple, the fault of less than 5%of their greedy and self centered leader,who only think of themselves alone,

The same thing happened with Germany when the east and weat had issues,they agreed to go their separate ways and the Berlin wall was built
But after so many years and both sides realizes their potentials and accept to be one again the walls were brought down.

Though I'm not igbo, but I so much support their believe and aspirations,its not to create fear and panic but to create a healthy rivalry to infrastructure and economical growth,to the west Africa region,

I so much believe that all regions(country) would tap inward to access and grow either slowly or fastly.
But because of what the leaders are enjoying in their demonic and slave and master government,none would support this ideas.

Afri[color=#000000][/color]ca is on a long slumber and even it people.

Calling you stupid would be an insult to stupid people. Do you know America was made up with 13 colonies you can also say 13 territories.

The yorubas would easily be the ones who stand to gain the most but they can't leave Nigeria because there is an alliance between them and the north that was struck when Awo came out of jail in 1966. The north gets unrestricted access to the sea and the yorubas avoid war and partner with the north to rule Nigeria in a permanent junior partner capacity

deomelo:




This is just ignorance, the North can not win any war against the SW and to say the region blessed with nearly all the riches, Lagos/crown jewel and the largest investment and industrial base in West Africa is a junior partner sounds more like a reflection of your own ignorance about your own country.



You people need to worry more about your worthless, unproductive and irrelevant villages

Shege Mr Eko Ile you are going nowhere! Abi you no sabi your history? Awo don sign am Tay Tay

"Faruk said that before the start of the civil war in 1967, his government set Chief Obafemi Awolowo free from prison although it was another government that had put him there.

“Eventually when the war was to start with Biafra, [Awolowo] went to Ibadan and gathered all Yorubas that they should know the war about to commence was between the North and the East, and the Yoruba in the West were not part of it,” he said.

“We received this with shock and the whole Northerners met in Kaduna and we issued them a warning that we heard they (Yoruba) were not part of it and we agreed but we have one demand,” he said.

That condition, according to him was the establishment of a One Mile Corridor. “From Offa which is in our region, from the rail line to the sea (wharf) we declare One Mile Military Corridor, meaning all of them who built houses within One Mile, we will crush down their houses. And nobody will stop our vehicles and vessels from accessing the sea, this we told our Yorubas in Ilorin to tell them. And from that time we never hear them. This is Military Corridor, we of the past hope our children will carry it,” warning that nobody could stop the people of the North, whom he said number 120 million, from accessing the sea."
