Three wasted positions that would have been beneficial to Odua sons and daughters.

Remi Tinubu has ties with Delta so the Commissioner guy from Delta is most likely her link.

The Fulani guy is to appease North for 2023. There is no sense in it if you ask me.

The have "everybody hates us syndrome"

You all are only lamenting because Igbo have refused to be cowed ...


As I said you don't dish out insults and hate and expect praise and love..

If you insult the igbos they will give it to you in 100 folds..


Normally I don't engage on tribal bashing until I joined nairaland and see the kind of derogatory words and insults from other tribes to igbos..

I can't sit and watch some lowlife nitwits say rubbish about my tribe..

You will never see the Hausa man plot against Yoruba, but you see the other people, they are plotting day and night. Most of attack on Yoruba on twitter are from igbos, then they open fake account to attack yoruba the more

You will hear: I'm Yoruba but Yoruba are this and that

I'm not ibo but Peter obi is this and that

They attack our women and call them all sort of names, I wonder a tribe of men that stomach nonsense against their women, that's Yoruba! Eeeeeeeckkkkkw

They attack our supper star, Antony Joshua was hated because he visited buhari and when he lost, they said unprintable names about him.

What amuse me is that, not only Ibos do this, some other minor tribes join Ibos, tribe that are shit compare to Yoruba, but what did Yoruba do in return laugh with stupid emoji. Theze small tribe no fit try the nonsense with ibo without getting smoked. But na Yoruba I blame

If they are not destroying Tinubu, they are clapping for those abusing our women, or singing praises of those disrespecting our food and culture.

I Dey joke when I talk say ibo no go anywhere but I swear I want them out of Yoruba land and make we divide!

One thing that is very clear is that the Yoruba are the most accommodating tribe in Nigeria; no one can deny that. However, what have we got in return - hate and envy especially from the Igbos. The Hausa/Fulani are suspicious of the Youruba but they do not hate the Yoruba. The are also accommodating to the Yorubas.

The Edo/Isekiri/Urhoro are siblings to the Yorubas even though they have their own identity. The Efik/Ibibio are somewhat indifferent to the Yoruba but that is fine. The Igbos outright hate the Yoruba and it is time Yorubas become very conscious of this hatred.

Everyday they are castigating Tinubu, Fayemi and Osinbajo; and other potential Yoruba presidential candidates. The other day they were calling Yoruba women undesirable and dirty. All of them were hating on Peter Okoye for marrying a “dirty Yoruba woman” - a woman who is more educated and exposed than anyone in their generation. They insult the same Lagos where they live - why don't they just go back to Onitsha and Aba.

They insult anything Yoruba- from Anthony Joshua, Wizkid, Tiwa and everything Yoruba. These insults are not unnoticed. Yoruba will not forget and will surely retaliate!

Very interesting.

1. Joe Igbokwe :

Oga. Hold your horses. We are not retaliating anything. Everything isn't violence. I don't know where you have been to or were you were schooled but in Lagos, we don't care!!

Not everything is violence . Damn it!!! Stop being petty. Every tribe has had or is having its own fair share of insults from other tribes. I dont see it as a biggie, eo long it isn't violence.


You talk about Tinubu like he is a Yoruba god. To you he could be, to us , he isn't. Everyone that doesn't like Tinubu shouldn't be your problem . Yeah, we are accommodating.

We grew up chanting tunes like this when we were playing game and it was still not a biggie. No offence was taken .

That is not true, Skekarau appointed a Yoruba man as a commissioner and even an Igbo man too. And even recently, Elrufai has non hausa serving in his government.



Show me any governor from the southeast that has appointed a Yoruba or an Hausa.

It should be three Nigerians who are not Lagos natives are holding office in Lagos. Lagos was developed with federal funds. Why should a native of Osun or Kwara on account of being Yoruba be more entitled to political position in Lagos than other Nigerians? Can an Osun state native go to Ondo to contest for position? Yet they come to Lagos and claim it's for Yorubas only and when one or two non Yorubas get position, it's used as a symbol for the faux liberalism

This is quite commendable. However, Yorubas remain the most tribalistic people in Nigeria. If you're talking about the most accommodating tribes, then you have to give it to the South southerners and maybe the Igbos too

Oga it seems you are learning politics. When did you start following politics

When Governor Chimaroke Nnamani of Enugu State appointed Mr. Festus Adedayo as his special assistant (Media), it did raise many eyebrows in this Nigerian society where it is virtually impossible to get jobs outside one's state of origin.

This happened in 2005
