The ‘fifth columnists’ among your people are not helping matters - Theophilus Danjuma hits Yoruba over state of the nation


Retired General Theophilus Danjuma says Nigeria is experiencing a lot of challenges that require its citizens to 'wake up'

- Danjuma, a former defence minister, accuses some people in Yoruba land of playing roles that have not helped the nation

- Leader of the Afenifere, Ayo Adebanjo, also claims the south west has been politically submerged


Theophilus Danjuma, a retired Army General and former defence minister in Nigeria, has said if the country must make progress, its people must be ready to play their parts.
Daily Trust reports that Danjuma said this in Ibadan, Oyo state, during a book launch on the story of the Nigerian Tribune.
The report quoted Danjuma as saying what the country is facing would not make anyone who is aware sleep soundly.

“In Yorubaland, everybody seems to have lost their voice, scared. And people appear not to care about what is happening. If I tell you what I know that is happening in Nigeria today, you will no longer sleep," he was quoted as saying.


Danjuma said: "Nigeria is in a big hole as nation. And people who put us in this hole have continued today. So, we’ve to wake up. Only we can save ourselves."
He lamented what he called the activities of fifth columnists in the south west adding that these set of people have not helped the situation.
He prayed that God will continue to bless the country.
The report also quoted Chief Ayo Adebajo, a leader of the Afenifere pan-Yoruba group as saying the south west had been politically submerged.
On his part, the Alaafin of Oyo, Oba Lamidi Adeyemi, said the country urgently needs restructuring.
He also kicked against the controversial hate speech bill currently going through the process of becoming law the Senate.

We are currently feasting on the SS oil to develop our region. When we make sure the oil is dried up such that it becomes useless we will set this nation on a path of secession once and for all.

Why should we break up the nation now when we can still enjoy the proceeds from crude oil? An economist maximizes his profit and use every means available to achieve optimal result.

If you all like cry from now till eternity on the matter of the Yorubas, we will let you know that working discreetly is better that shouting like a rabid dog online everytime.

You guys problem is that you have such infant level of IQ such that you all regurgitate the same rubbish like a damaged robot.

How are yoruba slaves when the APC government since 2015 benefited them the most? We have the Lagos-Ibadan expressway, the Ibadan-Lagos rail, the dry port in Ibadan among other infrastructural development.

The menace of the Fulani herdsmen is a national tragedy and we’ve seen countless cases where Fulanis butcher people in the SE and you guys just shout and shout without retaliating.

We’ve seen situation in the SW where the Are ona Kakanfo spoke about what the Alaafin are doing to the herdsmen and we’ve seen cases where their cows are killed in their hundreds with thunder.

The SW don’t shout like the other tribes, we remain silent and kill discreetly and that to me is not a definition of a coward.

The coward here are the people that come online and shout ontop their voices only for them to cry when the Fulani struck behind their backyard.

Even Mazi Kanu is currently AWOL and cannot grace his parent burial. Cowards!

I already spoke about Danjuma on the earlier thread and everyone know he is part of the problem. When he was enjoying his oil blocs and sabotaging the growth of Nigeria by awarding contracts to themselves he was silent but when he’s out of favor from the current government he turned out to be an alarmist.

Both Buhari and TY Danjuma can go to hell.

However I have to address the guy that brought up that useless statement up there about Yorubas being cowards.

The cowards this country have ever seen are the Igbos. Just that most people equate shouting online and abusing everybody as being brave. Major events in Nigeria give credence to the cowardice nature of the Igbos and I can even lay them out one by one from 1950.

The coward without honor is Sir Ojukwu.

His people were almost exterminated by the Fulanis.

He ran away disguised like a woman at he height of the war without honor.

Lastly, he (Ojukwu) shamefully campaigned openly for Shagari in 1983. Why would anyone with honor campaign for the same Fulani hegemony that slaughtered his people a decade back? He is the definition of coward without honor or valor.

SEE SOPHISTICATION. To whose benefit are you developing the South West. Hausa man and Ibo man are the one eating the most out of your region. Which region has the most immigrants from other regions. The SW. We come, take and go back to build mansions in our homes. Ibos we might be second class citizens in Nigeria but we are first class in the SW. Because you guys are lazy. Lazy. So you lose. Labor omnia vincit. Google it. Even here in America, the Yoruba man walks around like a beggar cleaning toilets, driving cab for decades. Biko carry go. Developing what?

Sometimes some people want to avoid their problems in life so they die, this is not heroism it is refined cowardice... If you really love your people you would stay alive for them..how will your death be of value?

Ojukwu running away doesn't make him a coward, if he didn't run away there could be no peace treaty and he came back eventually...

But people like you believe Human sacrifice i.e everyone who dies is a hero this is why we have boko haram in dis country

Because Danjuma's PDP faction has lost its influence Yoruba have "lost their voice" according to him?

What should the Yorubas be making noise over? Is it not only a mad Dog that barks rabidly non-stop? All Nigeria is facing hardship the current Government did not cause, and the SW is actually a winner with all things taken into account, so why is Danjuma asking us to be the mouthpiece for the discontent of some Nigerians? Why can't he lead his people to speak then? Why try rope Yorubas into their agitation.

Yorubas are smart now and we will not go back to the days of carrying Nigeria on our head to the detriment of the SW only to then receive insults from ingrates of other ethnic groups. Anyone wants to fight Buhari then be brave enough to take him on alone as Yorubas did against Abacha.

We are not falling for emotional blackmail anymore. Even Falana knows things have changed for good. The Yorubas are now operating smartly and pragmatically. I am personally happy for that because in Nigeria, full of tribalistic ingrates, it is "damned if you do, damned if you dont".

Oh my God, I’m totally ashamed of you and it’s just outright stupidity for someone to claim the Igbo man is the one eating large in Yoruba land while Yorubas are lazy.

Do you mean you’re eating large with the 2by 2 shops? Is wealth only derived from retail stores? How could a whole tribe be this delusional?

You don’t understand basic economics. For you to even submit to the fact that you have to come to the SW to be successful give credence to the prosperity of the Yorubas. Even if some of you are successful and send money home to build houses, it won’t still help the economic prosperity of your erosion ravaged SE. Houses alone are not the measure of economics growth, you should know this simple rule.

We have people of the SW that have balanced trades that cross across retails, wholesale, IT, banking, insurance, engineering, craft trades to mention a few. Your problem is that you guys always think selling cloth alone is the measure of wealth.

You are saying rubbish with regards to USA. Thank God that is where I live and I can lecture you well about each tribe prospect.

In education, the Yorubas are the most educated in USA in numbers and I challenge you to check every graduation book to see the numbers. Check graduate school across USA, the number of Yorubas dwarfs any other tribe and I challenge anyone here to deny the assertion.

Note: We can actually carry out a survey now. Choose any university of your choice and I will provide their commencement list and we will count the number of Yorubas and igbos on the list. Choose the schools yourself!

In the Fortune 500 companies in USA, the Yorubas feature the most professionals of Nigeria origin. Go to Facebook, Google, Intel, cummins, Deloitte, McKinsey, VISA, Apple, etc. They always have something called employee network and you will see the number of Yorubas outshine any other ethnic groups.

In the NSBE (National Society of Black Engineers) convention held in Pennsylvania USA in 2018, the Fortune 500 recruiters are majorly Yorubas. You will identify them with their tags around their neck and even most other Nigerians there are like we yorubas are everywhere.

Yorubas by far is more successful than any other ethnic group in the USA and it’s just absurd for someone to come online and say rubbish. Can you proof one of your claims ?

You’ll just come online and chestbeat thinking your fellow single digit IQ kinsmen are all the people online.
