wanimo: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. 2 Likes |

otuomasirichi: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 1 Like |

incandescentena: 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 9 Likes 5 Shares |

[color=#000099][/color] Iamgrey5: Bro sometimes dipolamcy pays! This GRV is from Lagos State, the Oba is father of all. He is not dipolamatic in his speech whether his people are for Sanwolu or not! Imagine FIFA president telling Ronaldo that Messi will win FIFA best player of the year, how will you feel? Bro in so far as Nigeria exist as a nation, the Igbos will have a big say in Lagos politics. It is an obvious fact, they are biggest tribe outside Yuroba in Lagos State... This will stop once there is a functional sea port in East(south south or south east) of course a Yuroba president will never allow a functional sea port in the east likewise a northern president. |

Jnkay: 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 will like to see how this plays out with tinubu government the fulani that are holding most top positions. |
