O to ge.....na kwara state people talk am

isaacsegun:

your brain must be paining you. No okun man or woman will ever tell you that he/she is not a Yoruba. I'm an okun man, so do you want to tell me I'm a Fulani or an Hausa?

I have one here in Illupeju, she is Funke but would tell you that she isn't Yoruba ....have you seven seen Dino Melaye say he is Yoruba before ! He can't say that ! He sees himself as Kabba man ! They consider the name Yoruba as a funny they said it is bounce from Yoruba


I know these things....even some ijebu find it hard bearing the term Yoruba

olaolulazio:
Come Feb ending, Saraki will be an upcoming politician.

By God grace

tuniski:


Are the places you mentioned in kwara or Osun cos if they are in kwara which they are, then are northerners!


I am an offa indigene and I am a northerner!

Offa is a northern region not a western region ...they have relationship with north and they have created that relationship from political to social with north

Profkomolafe:

mumu talk from Saraki!

Even most kwarans will tell you there are yoruba.

We are yoruba in Kwara

dreamwords:
Kwara is hausa land. No Yoruba indigene there, only yoruba migrant

lol... migrant ko migration ni, how did each ethnic get to the present geo location they call their home no b by migration, one thing that I know of is that kwara pole don't like saraki at alllll, n that mentality that kwara belong to d north na by history, d pple kwara relate better with sw than north dat I know but whether they believe they are still subdued under north I don't know

noah91:
You see why Saraki will always be a bastard. He has identity problem. The North hates him, the West hates him. He's just caught in the middle. Confused dude

Guy this is too much ooo

deomelllo:
Mr Juicy Position, northern votes in Kwara can not save you, you are a goner...


Homeless vagabond..

Ó tó géé.Kwara shall be free!

Kwara is north and not part of yoruba land

MajesticIgbo:


Akintola and Fani power were licking Balewa's arse without shame. This was the rationale behind "OPERATION WETTIE". The Yorubas felt that the Fulani oligarchy had come to rule over them through a puppet - Akintola.

However, Awolowo threatened that if the Igbos were allowed to leave, the Yorubas too would pull out.

you and your kinsmen are daft, you're always quick to quote the dead.


go and tell awolowo that we are fine in Nigeria, as our political relevance in Nigeria cannot be underestimate


thanks in anticipation

I am an offa indigene and I am a northerner!

It's very clear that you are not an Offa indigene because you won't say this nonsense if you truly are.
No Offa freeborn would say that!
Your origin is shrouded in mystery. Go and discover it pls.

porthouse7:
but u mention Hausa in ur post not Fulani's... Yoruba and Fulani blood are mixed in kwara not hausa

Most of them don't even know that the majority of Fulani in kwara understand only Yoruba.

CloudResident:

Oh, so you now speak for me and the rest of kwara south abi?

Being yoruba is different from being northerner we are both! Together with the Okuns in Kogi!

Yemi7up:
Bukola is drunk, Kwara has always been at disadvantage due to the fact of being part of the North, a position that has made Kwaran's minority i in the North. Does Bukola understand Hausa, olè, we will prefer to be with the west. A place we are welcome, where we understand the language.

The issue of putting us in the north has been haring us than good because we always find it difficult to have the west rallying around us when need be

dreamwords:

Kwara is north and not part of yoruba land

by geography u might be partially correct cos like kogi it is link between west n north but major land space fall westward, I live there but by identity that is left for each member of kwara to decide but I know a lot of pple from and in kwara who see them selves as Yoruba I am dating one I have a lot as friends and neighbor, so what point are u driving at

OgundeleT:

Most of them don't eben know that the majority of Fulani in kwara understand only Yoruba.

Yorubas are majority in kwara by overwhelming percentage. However, we are northerners by the geography. Same with the Okuns in Kogi.

Being a northerner is not the same thing as being hausa/fulani !

IGBOMINA LAND IS NOT PART OF NORTH.

IkpuMmadu:


Offa is a northern region not a western region ...they have relationship with north and they have created that relationship from political to social with north

We are north cos that is the geographical demarcation. We are in North Central and part of the 19 northern states. QED

Tareq1105:


Out of 16 local government in Kwara State

12 are Yoruba speaking

4 are others

I beg I want someone to confirm it. It will help my contribution to the issue at hand.

And majority of the 4lg understand Yoruba. Politically if you don't understand Yoruba and you are from Kwara north you can't rule kwara. Understanding the language is an advantage for any kwara northerner

SirBunky85:
nonsense,why can't u talk abt our Igbo States and our stupid governors? what's ur biz with who lagosians choose ad their leader? we (igbos)will leave our own headache back home and carry Yoruba matter for head

Of course we have been talking about our states...for instance, I have condemned Rochas for years....he is an slowpoke....but the same Yoruba folks will come here to tell us that Rochas our own failure of a governor is the best governor even when we tell them that Rochas is a failure, just because he belongs to APC, their presumed regional party .

Thank God Oshiomhole helped Imo people to finally bury Rochas' stupid ambition to become Tinubu of Imo state.

Meanwhile, people only get concerned about places they are stakeholders or living or have investments and businesses, so you don't expect me to be talking about Ondo or Nasarawa or Ebonyi or Niger states when I don't live there, not from there and don't have any business or investment in those states, so we Igbos are mostly concerned about the politics of Lagos in particular because Lagos is the second home state of most Igbos, I have investment in Lagos, I have business in Lagos, so Lagos politics concerns me....when Ambode woke up and said he will be charging millions for house owners in Lagos, didn't it affect Igbos who own houses in Lagos, so that is why we Igbos feel concerned about Lagos politics and its affairs.

Same applies to western nations....America is concerned about what happens in far away Iran, Iraq, Syria, Saudi Arabia, South Korea, Gabon, Congo DR, just name it...Americans meddle into the political affairs of the aforementioned nations not because they are American lands or because Americans are too concerned about other nations, no, it is because Americans have stakes, investments and businesses in those countries, so even as US government is shutdown currently, American government is still meddling and poke-nosing in the affairs of these other countries, so its normal if you have stake in a certain environment or community to be concerned about the leadership and politics of that environment or community...its only a fool that will be dancing happily when the community he has business and investments boils.

So the above is the reason why Igbos are concerned about Lagos politics....and they are also concerned about politics of their home states and other states where they have stake or investment.

Don't you know that after Yorubas, Igbos are the next most populous tribe in Lagos and most South-west states

If you doubt it, visit Lagos between 26 December - 3rd January of any year, when majority of Igbos have traveled to their respective communities to celebrate Christmas and New Year, you will then understand why they said Igbos own Lagos....because once Igbos leave within those periods, Lagos roads become free, markets become scanty and businesses die down in Lagos.

Lotorino:
If its dat bad, what 4 you still doing in Lagos Nobody is begging you to stay!!!

sammyj:
This fool think he can play politics with everything because he is fully aware that the Yoruba race are enlightened people who can not be enslaved by him. Thank Gpd for history!!

If you guys are really enlighten like you said one man won't be enslaving the whole of Lagos, you guys won't be slaves and follow follow to the emirate always doing their bidden, you guys won't be a stumbling block to Nigeria's progress.... Kwara is part of North and nothing you guys can do about it.

tuniski:

Being a northerner is not the same thing as being hausa/fulani !

It is by geopolitically and not geographical. The issue of putting us in the north central geopolitical zone was done by Olusola Saraki after Gowon had joined us with the wese. He(Saraki snr) and some kwara elders were deceived by Saraki to reject it so that Awolowo won't be checkmating him in kwara then

I know these things....even some ijebu find it hard bearing the term Yoruba

Dino do call himself Yoruba. Though I agree some of them prefer Okun which is the dialect they use to greet, just like ekun in igbomina

No man can enslave us in Lagos. Tinubu is only leveraging on the fact that both the PDP and some people from the other side of the county are not intelligent enough to do needful. So get your fact right

MajesticIgbo:


What did Igbos suffer in the hands of igala?

Anyway, whatever it's, it can't be worst than what Yorubas suffered in the hands of Fulani.

I hear you.

OgundeleT:

LoL

Kwara,kogi have been sold to the Fulani years ago
