Have you ever seen the Yoruba woman in Abuja insult the Gwaris or call Abuja no man's land?
Have you ever seen her say she doesn't think in the language of the Gwaris?
Did her kinsmen campaign by insulting Gwaris?

Until you get sense, you will keep chopping beating in Yorubaland.
but a Yoruba woman contested an election in another man's land and won.... meanwhile Yorubas denied non indigenes their rights to vote

see your hypocrisy. A Yoruba woman contested an election in the FCT against an indigene and won, no one is making a fuss about it, yet Yorubas used thugs to disenfranchise non indigenes from voting candidates of their choice.
The Yoruba woman is cultured and wise enough as an Omoluabi to know that she can never disrespect her host community.

The place she represents is not "no man's land" even if she buys half of the land. It is the ancestral home of some people and she & her offsprings will always respect that fact.

You see the reason why Igbo and Yoruba marriage should be abolished by all means. They rejected Gbadebo Vivour because his mother is Igbo. What's the essence of of marrying an Igbo woman and later see her children as Outcasts or intruders. This is an act of wickedness angry
Even within Igbo you still find osu as outcasts. I don't support tribalism but the igbos have their own problems too

Yoruba do not reject GRV but being a Biafra Supporter is a problem.

Yoruba had been marrying Ndi Igbo for some decades,so it is not new thing at all. And it has nothing to do with hatred.

In reality, the same IPOB whose leader Nnamdi Kanu incited people to burn Tinubu's property and burn down Lagos. And you expect Yorubas to support GRV who did not remove his cap when talking to a Yoruba Oba while his father and other family members did ? Ride on Nna

Look at the people you compare your Oba with, does that not tell you the class where your Oba belongs?

Also did your Oba not say Lagos is not Yoruba land?
Iamgrey5:
The king said Sanwo will win because his people are with Sanwo.

Just like everyone, OBA is entitled to his opinion under the Nigerian constitution.

When certain Igbos claim Lagos is no man's land, you don't necessarily need a dictionary to interpret that.

When GRV says he doesn't think in Yoruba, you didn't press him to explain further!

When Namdi Kanu's boys said a Yoruba pastor should not hold a crusade In Aba, you didn't ask to know where such exist in the Nigerian constitution.

But when Oba gives his opinion, you start looking for constitution.

Bunch of hypocrites..

Yorubas living outside the south west must relocate back to their state of origin.

Since the Yorubas have displayed so much hate towards non indigenes and used every instrument of fiat including state sponsored to disenfranchise non indigenes and stop them from voting candidates of their choice, every Yoruba person living outside Yoruba land must as a matter of urgency relocate back to the south west.

If they can't allow non indigenes to reside freely in their region, they have no justification to be allowed to reside anywhere outside the south west. They deserve a good dose of their own medicine.

All Yorubas living outside the south west must relocate to their state of origin

Very stupid epistle.

I've never seen Yorubas claiming Abuja is no man's land.

They live peacefully & transact business successfully here, Niger, Kaduna, etc


Besides, I never saw Ireti Heebah Kingibe posting bigoted stuff on Twitter, but your Lagos boy did.

Yoruba don't live in Ibo land because it is a cursed land.

Yorubas who live in the South South and North don't have any problem with their hosts.

I blame that selfish currupt Awolowo who walked through prison after he was found guity of using Government money, six million pounds to sponsor a political party and i certainly blame him, Awolowo for introducing Tribalism into Nigerian politics.

#Bittersourtruth

See your life? Now id!ots will quote me & type rubbish from the comfort of their momma's single room.


See how you are disgracing your kinsmen, with your warped history and lies. You are the biggest iDIOT here.

But you will not blame your kinsmen who were the architect of the first disruption of Nigeria through coup, killing innocent people to topple governments.

What Awolowo did in the West, your elders in years to come are still unable to achieve in their entire lifetime.

Now let's be objective with undisputed facts - facts without sentiments or fabrication.

*The last two years of Awolowo as Premier of Western Region was concentrated on efforts to write his name in the book of Legends.*

He incorporated: *Western Hotels* which invested in:
* Premier Hotel,
* Lafia hotels in Ibadan
* Lagos Airport Hotel respectively.

He set up:
*Western Nigeria Development Corporation* to finance mega-corporations. This was established in 1958.
It encouraged plantation development with six agricultural plantations covering 20,517 acres in collaboration with Cooperative societies, and eleven additional plantations covering 8,468 acres with crops ranging from Cocoa, Rubber, Oil Palm, Citrus, Cashew, and Coffee had been put in place all over the region.

WNDC, a clearing house for a multitude of companies, was established for the rapid industrial development and revolution of the region.
Among them were:
1. WAPCO at Ewekoro for cement, with enough capacity to serve the whole country.
2. Nigerite Ltd, producing asbestos and roofing sheets,
3. National Bank,
4. Wema Bank,
5. Nigerian General Insurance,
6. Great Nigeria Insurance,
7. Gravil Enthoven and coy,
8. Vegetables Oil Ltd,
9. Cocoa Processing Industry Ogba Ikeja,
10. Odua Textile Mills Ltd,
11. Wrought Iron Ltd,
12. Union beverages Ltd, 13. Sungass company,
14. Wemabod estates, owner of Western House tallest building, then on Broad Street, and other estates,
15. Western livestocks,
16. Fisheries services Ltd,
17. Caxton Press,
18. Epe Plywood,
19. Asakar Paints,
20. Nigeria Crafts and Bags Ltd,
21. Nipol Plastics in Ibadan,
22. Phoenix Motors.

Also, he opened up biggest industrial layouts in:
i. Ibadan, Oluyole and
ii. Lagos Oba Akran axis and
iii. *Ilupeju in Mushin axis with over 120 factories* for mass production of different needs & gave birth to:
23. Nigeria Textile Mills,
24. West Africa Breweries,
25. Dunlop Tyres,
26. Crittal Hope Aluminum,
27. Tower Aluminium,
28. Solel Boneh,
29. Nidogas,
30. Nigeria Wire and Cables in Ilupeju.

Odua Investments was the largest conglomerates in Nigeria as at 2004 with assets worth over N10 trillion.

Chief Jeremiah Obafemi Awolowo paid the Western Nigeria Civil servants, the highest salaries far above Federal government.
So much jobs were created by vast industrialisation drives.
All these were achieved without Oil revenue between1951-1959. He also touched the road construction with bitumen & laid road network covering over 2,000 kilometers throughout the region.

Other achievements of his regime are:
1. Cocoa House, the tallest building in West Africa for decades,
2. Liberty Stadium, the most modern in the entire African,
3. Western Nigeria Television & Broadcasting Service (WNTV/WNBS), the first Radio & Television Stations in Africa,
4. Many General Hospitals and Dispensaries in rural area.
5. Free Education at primary school level.
6. His effort in Cooperative society development gave birth to establishment of Cooperative Bank in 1953 and Cooperative College.

The eight years most of this present Governors spend, was the same with Pa Awolowo, covering what comprises 8 states nowadays, yet he achieved so much. Most of our present day Governors could not mention one world class company, corporate institution or industry set up to create jobs for teaming youths being turned out year in, year out, by our ivory towers.

Today leaders should at least emulate our late sage foot steps instead of all the temporary empowerment programs (Motor cycle, Keke Napep, Pepper grinding machine, Cassava grinding machine, Deep freezer, Fridge, Clipper etc) being used to cajole the electorates at the turn of election every four years.
A time will come in this nation that people aspiring for position must show a well laid out plan before the electorate.
The cash and carry politics will fail as it's the practise in developed nation.
Let us always look forward to lasting legacies.

*OBAFEMI AWOLOWO* was obviously ahead of his peers and till today no living or deceased Nigerian has surpassed his achievements.
You wonder why the southwest Nigeria did well.

In the 1990s, Nigeria Textile Mills, Oba Akran Ikeja alone employed over 4,000 workers before the military mismanagement of economy killed the company with unfriendly company policies

*Can we ever find a leader like this man in Nigeria again?*

Indisputable facts

This country will move forward when yorubas stop tribalism.

Nonsense!
When they vote Peter Obi in the Presidential elections,they are not tribalistic but when the Governorship election came,they know Sanwo-Olu should be given a 2nd-Chance,you now called them a tribalism ethnic,so who is fooling who?
You should learn to read the signs of time but if you don't know the difference, Governorship election is LOCAL,unlike the Presidential.

No cap, if sanwo olu has done well, he wouldn't need all this tribalistic stuff to win. The young ones do not know the danger of this till they get to a position where they will be rejected because of tribe instead of competence and what you can deliver. Then you start wondering if your a Nigerian. We complained how the fulani has held most position in nigeria government.

I'm still in shock since the presidential election. I thought we are sophisticated, I never knew we are this tribalistic. We are known to be nice and accommodating, although i must acknowledge that some Igbos really overstepped their boundaries. I just hope this doesn't escalate into a tribal war for us and our unborn children.
