Access to sea currently controlled by a fulani They always can't wait to take over the Ports 'Allowed' to lead is the keyword, even though we never seem to be able to get the Yoruba leader we want. If I have to explain these to u, then no point really Iamgrey5: 3 Likes |

StaffofOrayan:what do you mean by we can't seem to elect the Yoruba leader we want At least Obasanjo won almost 70% of Yoruba votes in his second term in office, Osinbajo got nearly 65% in his first term.. Or is it at the state level? Which port are they trying to take over? Abi the port has not existed for more than 9 decades? Are they going carry it to the North? I don't get all these sentimental talks |

StaffofOrayan:Oh i forgot that the rest of Nigerians are having the time of their lives living in abosolute affluence I forgot Alamanjiri and those that pack in buses like Sardins to seek economic refuge in west. Perhaps those are your masters ? |
Re: Professor Banji Akintoye:"Yorubas Are Like Slaves In Nigeria" by StaffofOrayan(m): 6:50am On Mar 17, 2020 |
Iamgrey5: Look here, even an Hausa man would swear he not a slave in the North, Those Almajiri are in the South to Polish shoes, fetch water and all those slave jobs, It's not an indication that SW is a land of opportunity, when even our youths are crying and leaving Nigeria in their thousands. Of course while they escape, they are being replaced by other tribes Northern Nigeria is why some Yoruba's think they are doing ok in Nigeria, but since when did we start comparing ourselves to Northerners? We used to be in a league of our own. |
Re: Professor Banji Akintoye:"Yorubas Are Like Slaves In Nigeria" by Iamgrey5(m): 6:58am On Mar 17, 2020 |
StaffofOrayan:Even in a land of famine, their are those more equal than others. No one is pushing anyone, anywhere. People are smart enough to seek economic opportunities where there's opportunity. Majority of what the Hausas are doing can't be done by Yorubas for a living or can your educated brother start doing manual labour or shoe maker? Forgot about the Northerners, what of the Easterners that have to travel to the west to earn a living? You are simply too emotional that you will take any dirt thrown at you. Like I told you earlier, feel free to tag yourself a slave. It is your choice |
Re: Professor Banji Akintoye:"Yorubas Are Like Slaves In Nigeria" by StaffofOrayan(m): 7:07am On Mar 17, 2020 |
It's not a tag, it's reality and it's time to start waking our children to their full potential. Otherwise their standard of living would keep dropping, they would be fed in schools like almajiri kids because their parents have been decapitated. South Easterners are in Borno, that is not an indication of anything, just shows a people that like to spread their tentacles. If as a Yoruba man you need these explanations, I really don't know what else to say! Travel around the SW and see the real nature of things, Iamgrey5: |
Re: Professor Banji Akintoye:"Yorubas Are Like Slaves In Nigeria" by Iamgrey5(m): 7:16am On Mar 17, 2020 |
StaffofOrayan:Eyah ! I don't know South Easterners go to Borno to clear their goods or are so many in Borno to the extent that they start calling it a no man's land. And like I told you earlier, you can also tell your children and relatives "that they are like slaves in Nigeria" so that they can have the self-esteem and confidence they need to overcome life challenges. It's really your choice And about poverty level, perhaps you need to travel around Nigeria to understand why many people still prefer the west as a destination for economic refuge. |
Re: Professor Banji Akintoye:"Yorubas Are Like Slaves In Nigeria" by StaffofOrayan(m): 7:23am On Mar 17, 2020 |
You keep comparing Yoruba's with other regions that live in a very base existence!! That's what Nigeria does to you, you look at others suffering and you feel you are 'at least better than them' Did you even listen to the speech before disagreeing? As long as we are in Nigeria, Lagos IS no man's land!! No matter how emotional it makes you! Luckily for we Yoruba's, we have the likes of the prof who is waking the young minds Iamgrey5: 1 Like |

Re: Professor Banji Akintoye:"Yorubas Are Like Slaves In Nigeria" by StaffofOrayan(m): 7:44am On Mar 17, 2020 |
The masters are the feudal lords of the North! You know those ones that keep killing Yoruba leaders, Those ones that promised not to let Southerners control their own destiny (which you are unconsciously fighting to protect) Those ones that SUCCESSFULLY destroyed Hausa's and made hausa fight for them, something they seem to have done to you. The ones that kill you and then call you primitive and an irridentist for daring to protect yourself. You can see that some yorubas whose slavery has reached alarming dimensions are totally against Amotekun, the thought of offending their masters just scares them. Iamgrey5: |
Re: Professor Banji Akintoye:"Yorubas Are Like Slaves In Nigeria" by Iamgrey5(m): 7:47am On Mar 17, 2020 |
StaffofOrayan:You see why I told you that you are an emotional baby. How can you say that those who are living in a terrible state than you are your master? Does that make any sense? |

StaffofOrayan:The last time I checked. Money is allocated to every state in Nigeria without prejudice Lawmakers share the national cake without prejudice. If you are talking about a state capture by the Nigerian elite irrespective of Tribe, i would have given you a benefitb of the doubt. But you seem more like an emotional ipob member to me from my conversation with you here. |

Oh not ipob! Please dont be one of those dumb yorubas that mock people that are trying to escape their slavery because you are comfortable with yours. Legislators and politicians in general represents the people, if the people don't complain, if the people do not realize they are slaves, politicians won't act, hence my joy at people like the prof who have decided not to die with Nigeria. Don't worry, little by little one Nigerians like you would begin crying out. If you think you love Nigeria more than middlebelters, you would soon hear it. Iamgrey5: 1 Like |

I believe, slavery doesn't need to be physical. It can be psychological. Yes, the west are psychologically enslaved to the North. I am not being sentimental. It is a fact. |

Iamgrey5: That a slave is made head of a slave camp and allowed to lead every so often has not taken away the fact that he is still a slave That a Yoruba man is president from time to time does not mean that the Yoruba nation is not enslaved The reality on the ground is that the North has enslaved the South. Yorubas and everyone in the South have become slaves. The only difference is that while some people have become comfortable with their slave status, others are agitating against it. 2 Likes |
