Guy Azikiwe won Awolowo in Lagos State.
You know why? because Awolowo was oppressing his people and they needed freedom just like what Tinubu is doing right now.

It was Awolowo that introduced tribalism in Nigerian politics.
I wrote about it in this thread but Tinubu minions decided to troll it.

Rubbish

Tribalism in his own region? How many Yoruba or Hausa was a leader in Azikwe region at that time?

I thank God Awolowo cut him down to size, people like you would have been mocking us today, saying your ancestors colonized my ancestors. God rest your soul Jeremiah Obafemi Awolowo, I love you Papa.

soojar:



It's not a calabash that shows where to put rope on its neck, its actually a gourd. The Yoruba word for both sound alike hence many people mistake one for the other.

English Yoruba
Calabash Igba
Gourd Agba

"Igba" doesn't have neck while a "Agba' naturally has neck which brings about that proverb that its a gourd that will show you where on it to put rope.

. You don't even know the history, its very unfortunate, you people bend history the it soot you, can you tell me how Zik sold out? Is it because he contested election in the western House and won? you people are very greeeeeedy the fact still remains that no Igbo man can trust or rely on a yolooba man , they will back stab you

But Miss Tourist Ojuku trusted and relied on Banjo to lead millions of lily livered Igbos to war which they largely won until Ojuku betrayed him even when his panel exonerated him from the cooked up lies of Ojuku,the dictator.
Ojuku relied on Prof Aluko because he knew that Yoruba are mostly very versatile and sophisticated..
Igbos have betrayed the Hausas,Urhobos,Yorubas,Ijaws etc.

I can give 5 undisputed betrayals of Nigerians by the Igbos which resonated all over Nigeria.

I know the history much more than you can imagine. I have followed the history since the first time I could comprehend simple discourses in primary school. What I will refuse to o know or accept is your selfish lies; your version of history that seeks to demonize the Yoruba and make Igbos look like the victims from the inception of Nigeria. Go and read books authored not even by Nigerian historians, but by neutral authors from other countries. When you know the truth, it shall set you free. Yorubas will not be treated like younger a brother to Igbo, who has to listen to everything the elder says. Go and wake Zik up and he will provide the answers that you need

VoteObi2023:

Igbos are worse than Fulanis?

But you are busy killing Fulanis in Yoruba land and there has never been a Yoruba attack against Igbos.

Can you explain that?



Anyway, PO is your next president.

In your dreams.

To your first question, let an Igbo man become president and what Buhari has been doing in terms of ethnic bigotry will pale in comparison to what you guys will do. The little we saw during GEJ ' s administration says it all. We saw how Igbos surrounded him and misled him to treat Yorubas badly while he curried to the North.

So the Yoruba union had a name, Egbe Omo Oduduwa but the said Igbo union was nameless & known only to you. Oga tribalist, a rivalry between two men does not translate into a rivalry between their tribes. But people that see things only through a pair of tribal lenses can’t possibly understand that, not even with an Ojukwu that campaigned for a Shagari against his tribesman Zik. Of a truth, it really does the sheep no good to preach the goodness of a diet of grass when the wolves are of a different mind! What this topic should bear is, 'How Awo introduced tribalism into Nigerian politics'. That is the only thing the ethnic champion from the SW campaigning to be President in 2023 has told Nigerians he has to offer!

Tinubu people can never campaign above ethnic bigotry.

The first thing an Igbo president will do is to give everyone what's due to them. Nobody will take what they don't deserve.

We will make Nigeria equal for everyone and everybody will be rewarded based on merit and equity.

We will distribute all the critical national assets equally so that people in the East, South and North will no longer depend on Lagos to bring in or export their goods.

The national rail will reach everybody and Niger delta resources will be returned to the owners.

International airport will be functional in all the regions so that the whole South won't have to depend on Lagos and while the Middle Belt won't have to depend on Abuja.

We will revisit the Ogoni cleanup and stop gas flaring in PH and ND to preserve our citizens health.

Above all, we will restucture the country so that each region will compete based on their comparative strength and not leeching on ND oil.

We will protect our borders, farms and villages from Invaders so that armed fulani herdsmen will no longer kill people to steal their land.

We will restore peace in the NE, SE, SW, NW, SS and NC by speaking to terrorists in the language they understand.

These are just a few of what an Igbo presidency will do.

No more free money.

Only those who hate equity and merits are against Igbo presidency.

An Igbo man can never restructure Nigeria. Igbos love one Fraudgeria than even the Fulanis, they're only crying foul because the Fulani slave master is blocking their way to the presidency of Fraudgeria. l Igbo zik supremacist ideology runs in each and every one of their blood. Why do you think Zik refused secession clause ? Why do you think Aguiyi Ironsi another Igbo nullified regional government and birthed the parasitic Unitary system of government which is now perfected by the Hausa Fulani slave master to their advantage?
It is only a Yoruba man that can restructure Nigeria, because we are the most affected by the Unitary system the Igbo man brought and restructuring has always been our stance.
God willing , with Tinubu ,we Noble Yoruba youth will force him to restructure Nigeria because he is Yoruba first before Nigerian unlike the useless Obasanjo who loves One Fraudgeria.

Igbos and Fulanis are unrepentant Supremacist, yet their hypocritical mind accuse every other of being a Tribalist.

Imagine the audacity their grandfather had to even try to be Premier of Western region, immediately in a very young country for God sake!

Osibanjo already said restructuring is not Nigerian problem. So how Tinubu want take restructure Nigeria.

We are not voting for a thief.

Yorubas had better alliances with the Fulanis, Hausas, Benins, Nupes, Diahomeans, Itsekiris, etc and others pre-colonization. There is a reason we refused to del with people without an empire.

Osinbajo is a noob or just trying to be in the good books of Hausa Fulani slave master. Same way Tinubu has been doing to be in their good books. Unfortunately, they need it because the 1999 constitution and the parasitic Unitary system of government we practiced has placed the key to ASo rock on their hands.

Average Hausa Fulani doesn't want r anything restructuring even though the Acn branch of APC inserted restructuring as part of APC manifestoes, you see Buhari archived Jonathan confab report. They have tasted the parasitic Unitary structure and the taste is good for them.

It's no more about voting for thief. Even a terrestrial being cannot make Nigeria, a country of over 250 ethnic groups with 5- 10 major indigenous nations practice unitary system of government where almost all power resides with the central government work , further made worse by 1999 constitution which is alien to the people of Nigeria.

Infact, I will prefer restructuring before anything election, because we are just postponing the evil days, there is no way there won't be an implosion as time goes on.

Igbo and Hausa Fulani can not restructure, Jonathan who was presented with the golden opportunity to do the needful was beclouded by second time ambition.

Some might be asking how is restructuring possible without national assembly,the power residing with the president is too much, if national assembly will disturb your reforms you lock it for the duration of your presidency.

JAMO84:


I will never understand why Zik would want to rule Yoruba in their own land. Maybe the Yoruba of that time were too cool, he must have taken their calmness for foolishness.


I thought the concept of regionalism the British handed to them was based on each region governing itself, why would Zik wants to re - colonize my ancestors in their own region? That man get liver no be small o!

Bro it is the covetous nature of Igbos. Azikiwe did such things countless times. Today they are the only non-Yoruba ethnic group always eyeing "ownership" of Lagos.

Who, in this modern age, should say the have "enslaved" people in their own land except maliciously covetous people with an agenda of a hostile takeover against others who are their benefactors ?

It is their way. They even drag markets in Accra with Ghanaians as if they are superior stakeholders there.

They are irredeemable and smart Nigerians should start protecting themselves from the excesses of Igbos who are hateful, sly, cunning, covetous and without conscience.

Precisely. Igbos are only restive and disruptive when not in charge because they feel it is their God-ordained right to be commanders of other Nigerians always.

Per restructuring, Tinubu will do it brother. He is a man keen to leave this world with a legacy of haven reformed Nigeria as Awolowo seismically impacted on the fortunes of the Yorubas to the extent the sage remains a legend in the minds of most Yorubas and all fair-minded Nigerians till today.

You people are nothing but annoying trolls and intellectual midgets always looking to discredit revelations you do not like or those that indicts you of wrongdoing.

The article is an excerpt from a book written by a Ghanaian directly involved in the events he comments on. He is therefore as non-biased a referee as one can get back then.

Even the reference to the relevant page was given but you dimwits, rather than try to learn and grow, prefer asinine behaviour.

You narcissists and sociopaths are incapable of even the most minimal of self-inspection or objective self-scrutiny.

That is why I personally continue to insist folks must protect themselves from the excess of Igbos who cannot even see they are doing or have done wrong.
