Make Tinubu The Asiwaju Of Yorubaland – Group To Ooni by wales(m): 6:41am On Jun 06, 2011 |
Make Tinubu Yoruba Leader – Group! A pressure group, Save the Masses and Children’s Heart Association, has appealed to the Ooni of Ife, Oba Okunade Sijuwade, to install former governor of Lagos State, Asiwaju Bola Tinubu, as the Asiwaju of Yorubaland.http://www.punchng.com/Articl.aspx?theartic=Art20110606212671 |

Long overdue. |

Interesting. Tinubu has already taken that position. Power is not given but taken. What the group ought to canvass for is a stronger Afenifere to keep Tinubu in check and give him balance, advice and accountability because absolute power will eventually corrupt absolutely. |

God Forbid! I will personally go to the middle of Enuwa and blow myself up if Ooni does anything that stupid! |

hahaha Tinubu is a very clever guy,i give him that.He has been planning this for years.His dress code and his glasses make him look like a modern day AWOLOWO. I don't have any problems with them appointing him as a leader of the Yorubas as long as they also create a body that can keep him in check.Power corrupts and no one is immune from such corruption. |

I thought he was already an asiwaju or why do people call him that if he wasnt. @ topic true he did appoint people to his cabinet from all across the region. I guess he works well with others. |

tpia@: Very stupiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiid contribution He is the Asiwaju of Lagos, not the Asiwaju/leader of Yorubaland Only the Ooni can confer the Asiwaju of Yorubaland title. Remember Oba Aderemi and Awo? |
Re: Make Tinubu The Asiwaju Of Yorubaland – Group To Ooni by Jarus(m): 12:50pm On Jun 06, 2011 |
I beg to disagree with this group. Tinubu IMO is not 'omoluabi' enough to be the Yoruba leader compared to past Yoruba leaders: Awolowo - Ajasin - Adesanya. Obasanjo was in a prime position to take this but he messed up his chance. I don't know any Yoruba leader that satisfies this statesmanly condition today. But being an indisputable warrior, I think he is qualified for Aare Ona Kakanfo(Generalissimo) of Yorubaland, a position previously held by Akintola and Abiola(which has place in Yoruba tradition more than the former anyway). |
Re: Make Tinubu The Asiwaju Of Yorubaland – Group To Ooni by Nobody: 12:53pm On Jun 06, 2011 |
Jarus: I agree. Maybe we'll finally get an Aare that will not work against the Yorubas and OBJ won't be able to live it down. (Heard he's been lobbying the Alaafin for the title) |

Re: Make Tinubu The Asiwaju Of Yorubaland – Group To Ooni by johnie: 2:35pm On Jun 06, 2011 |
Jarus: That is no longer a popular title. The last two holders of that title did not bargain for what they got- the manner of their deaths. |

For every silly question, this is www.google.com There's no point attempting to mask your idiocy. There are no st[i]u[/i]pid questions you [i]i[/i]diot, the fact that it is easier for you to answer doesn't make it st[i]u[/i]pid! and no, not all answers are found on google, stop being a dolt! |

Jarus: You could start by explaining what you put in inverted comas unless you want your contribution to be meaningless to non-Yoruba speakers. However let me ask from what I understand from the rest of your post if Tinubu has not become the de facto Yoruba political leader through his visionary founding of ACN and determined overthrow of PDP and OBJ ( that has forced him to an untimely political retirement) in the SW. Tinubu is already a king and kingmaker. What remains is his coronation and title which in my own opinion, he does not need. If he purifies his ways and submits to a mutually respected partnership with Afenifere, all Yorubas will eventually come to hate to love him and eventually accept him. The coronation and title will be brought to him like the Romans were begging Julius to be emperor. Love him or hate him, Tinubu is a fantastic politician. He only needs guidance or help from a group like Afenifere to be a statesman so he needs to be advised to protect himself from himself by not alienating or destroying them in a quest to be a total leader like his co-senator, Palpatine in Star Wars. |

[size=18pt]Aara ona Kakanfo is the most prestigious Title in Yorubaland any other title is a short-changed title, the Alaafin of Oyo is [/size] [size=18pt]the only person that can confer that title on anyone. This new title by Ooni is a mordern day perversion and an abberation that has little or no weight[/size]. |
Re: Make Tinubu The Asiwaju Of Yorubaland – Group To Ooni by DEEHASAL(m): 3:38pm On Jun 06, 2011 |
General Adekunle(rtd) has been given the title and I am not sure Tinubu will be interested in such titles. Alaafin of Oyo and NOT Ooni is entitled to install anything Yorubaland. Ooni is just being greedy. Besides Oyo empire covers the entire Yorubaland(Ife included) to neighbouring Ghana,Togo and Benin

alj_harem: One was convicted and sent to jail One just got arrested for corruption and embezzlement Tinubu is yet to be confronted with or arrested for anything under the laws of Nigeria The difference is clear, but many like because of their silly bad bele and lack of understanding and ability to reason logically like an adult throws around ignorant accusations and baseless nonsense. Tinubu- Tinubu via NADECO fought, stake his life on the line and gave us democracy Tinubu as the governor of Lagos state showed leadership and courage by not selling out under PDP OBJ pressure, he refused to back down and he protected the state of Lagos for the people of Lagos. Lagos is not in the hands of the ever corrupt and incompetent PDP because of Tinubu Lagos is the shinning example of great leadership because of Tinubu His great leadership and sense of wisdom gave us the best and the most credible governor in Nigeria What many Lagosians and Nigerians in general love about Lagos state in terms of infrastructure and policies was designed and put in place by Tunubu Many people gripe about Tinubu owning Alpha Beta which is absolutely irrelevant considering the fact that the same people attributes the success of the state to it's ability to generate huge IGR. The question now is, who set the stage for the huge IGR? Whose knowledge and wisdom is making it possible for Fashola to be able to do all the great things he's doing in Lagos because of the huge IGR? Shouldn't many of these misguided people and their states be advocating and looking their own Alpha Beta to revolutionize their tax system and generate enough money to do what the Lagos state government is doing or at least something similar to help their people? The Yoruba people suffered under lousy and shameful PDP leadership, many of our own disgraced the Yoruba people and set us back. Tinubu single-handedly fought the same evil people with his smarts and wisdom to wrestle Yoruba land from the hands of the hands of the PDP, we basically got rid of all the corrupt and evil forces in Yoruba land. Tinubu gave us a news sense of pride and joy, he gave us a new beginning, a defined path and way forward. Today, many in Nigeria are celebrating the arrest of Bankole. The EFCC was able to arrest Bankole because he was defeated in the last election, he lost his powerful seat, he lost his immunity, it all happened because of one man/Tinubu. By orchestrating the defeat of many of these PDP politicians in the SW, he made it easy for them to be arrested and prosecuted. Good for Nigeria that we have a vibrant, credible and powerful opposition in Nigeria today and the leader of that opposition is Tinubu This same opposition party/ACN is the only opposition party in Nigeria we are all depending on to keep the PDP in check Trashing Tinubu is something you are free to do, but it doesn't mean you know anything about the man, it dosn't mean you know what you are trashing. Your petty and misguided actions basically reflects your own ignorance, lack of depth, sense and good judgment. I see you runjing all over the place calling the man a criminal, but since you asked me a question and I answered you question. I need you to tell us what made him a criminal. What crime/s was he arrested and convicted for? What proof and evidence of wrong doing do you have beyond hearsay and rumors? |
