You should be more concerned about the reliability of the president to deliver in his promises than the tribe of the president

Every tribe has potential presidential materials who can deliver especially the 60+ million strong Igbo ethnic group.
We are no longer going to be deceived by that 'let's forget about tribe' hypocrisy and grandstanding.

Zoning meanings 'turn-by-turning' and it is the rightful for the East to do their turn before yoruba do theirs because the yorubas have taken their turn and must have to wait.

Yes let all tribes produce as long as my own tribe takes it's rightful turn. Since the yorubas have produced, the Igbos should take their turn, then, the Jukun, and other 250 tribes. I know the yorubas to be very patient people, they'll be ready to wait for 250 X 8years before it gets to them.

Everybody is marginalized in Nigeria, I'm sure the yorubas won't complain.

.
Where was it when OBJ a yoruba became president by contesting against another yoruba even though he wasn't the best nigeria had to offer? Because the country wanted to pacify yorubas. A priviledge that yorubas now seek to deny the East.

Oga zoning will only be deactivated if yoruba continue their foolery of standing against a presidency of Igbo extraction because they want enjoy taunting, mocking and insulting the East. At that point the East will resolve to also keep it away from yorubas and keep in the North.

I have come to understand that showing weakness to yorubas and many Nigerians will only buy you a 'fake sympathy' at best. Showing your strenght and how to wield it ferociously will get you the respect you deserve, but will also come with envy in the package. I prefer the latter.

You just showed that most of your hatred against the Yorubas are furled by lies and baseless claims.

How is the Yorubas denying the East of becoming president? I hope you have evidence to back this up? I hope it isn't one of the lies you have swallowed without thinking because it makes you look like the victims and you love feeling like victims?

I didn't say 'denied', I said you yoruba stand against a president of Eastern extraction. You've done so since 1970s because you believed that since the ceasefire after the civil war, you yorubas alone should get all the political goodies and appertunances therewith that is accruable to south.

May we not forget, the aetiology of the debate between you and I is that you quoted me and tried to play the usual yoruba grandstanding prank by insinuating that 'we should all forget about tribe'. The usual preaching you always do when you want to deceive people after taking your share.
It won't work anymore, so die it.

Do you have any evidence to prove any of these? Or is it an offshoot of your usual palm wine joint , drunkenness- and ignorance-induced tales?

This is what the north fears, this is what the western power fears...that an African country can uplift the continent, and make Africa great again...

Only if the yorubas and igbos can see this.... We have the world to conquer, not just Africa or present day Nigeria

The both of you are dreaming. Wake up from your slumber

I'm sure you know what is happening to your Nyamiri people, properties and businesses in the neighboring countries......africans are peculiar in their governance....if you know, you know....

we are waiting for your actualization of the BIAFRAUding Republic and then, you will know that there is always a wall of difference between the son of the soil and son of Cain (fugitive and Vagabond)

Your presence in any community, towns, State, and countries contributes more woes than the benefits thereof...

Why are you sympathizing with the Yoruba Region that doesn't know maybe you exist...?
Why are you begging the issue..?

.okay, Yoruba people will be hit and your people and region will automatically turn to small London...abi?
You thought all blessings across the.leght and breathe of the world reside in your region needing nothing......you are always known as chest beaters, we are not chest-beaters like you people....despite the fact that our influences cut across the world....in terms of language, culture, religion, natural and human resouces, etc....we are known for humility and focus.
Lemme sounds it.to your astute mind and fussy brain...Yoruba people are uniquely bless
..
In your quest for balkanization, why do you want to forceful hijack Niger-Delta region?/ I guess it's because of their crude oil knowing fully well you will use the oil money to stabilize the highest degree of poverty that reside in your region.
Probably you have forgotten that you originated from a moldy and erosion ravaging region.
