Igbos allowed Yoruba to use the narrative against them ..

You see in south .. Yoruba control the narratives.. Igbos wil and have always second whatever narratives Yoruba comes up with

Yoruba told them southern President.. they jump at it .. without asking what’s in there for them

Yoruba told them .. they’re slave to PDP.. without thinking how else to get to power .. they left Pdp and jump with Obi..

Knowing they can’t win.. you try warning them.. they’re dashing away this same power to yoruba on a platter of gold.. same people will abuse and call them names .. they shouted you down and call you fool

Yoruba brought the narratives of Lagos na no man’s land .. they bought it and spread .. none counter the Yoruba narratives .. even if na to agree for election diplomacy.. but no.. they brag on top am

Peter not leaving Pdp would have gotten igbos close to power .. with hope of 2027.. now it have taken them back to another …. Years

Op I remembered explaining this to you.. but you believe Obi will win.. all this Supreme Court blahs no for Dey.

But wetin we know..

Hope say Una don learn Una lessons..

Dismantle the Yoruba media and control the southern narratives.. debunk where necessary and make friend and consolidate where matters

Sorry .. you’re asking a very wrong question.. not learning lessons.




Bro,I think I agree with you partially.
But,the logic there on Obi's case was that,it will be improper to elect another Fulani man after 8 years of this Fulani man's administration.
And also being one of the founding members of PDP and having stood with them so far,the party should have compensated the Igbos with the ticket this time around and Atiku wasn't going to do one tenure and already he wanted to pick a sitting governor who can bankroll most of the campaign expenses.Ifeanyi Okowa doesn't really represent an Igboman.
Obi's candidate was first a courageous attempt by the igbos to try their hands on that presidency seat and also fustrated masses trying to do away with these old corrupt baggages of politicians who have rendered the country in a moribund state with their selfishness,greed and corruption.
Atiku was the one who messed up big time and has met his hubris, though Tinubu's emergency was through a fraudulent means,but it's what it's.
Obi might not reclaim any mandate in S.C and this Present APC will do its best to crush LP, because they're the real threat to them now.
But, it's time to start forming alliance now,PO can't do it alone with the little LP as against the giant APC.
PDP,Nnpp and other political parties might be willing to form an alliance,but PO need to shrug off pride and sit down to restrategize.
My own subjective opinion though.

Okay..

Obi will not have won Tinubu on a Pdp ticket

Atiku wasn’t looking for a cash cow

Obj tricked Obi to make way for his kinsman

Bankers group are not yet ready to win elections in Nigeria.. but to protect interest

A united Pdp would have been party in position of swearing in

OBi won’t have that opportunity again .. fire is out and it’s back to Pdp/ Apc

Igbo on their own.. can never get close

This is the reality

I thought you were one of the most sophisticated Yoruba men on nairaland? You just proved me wrong. What does this voice note prove? Even the idiots commenting on the Twitter page are very dumb. That voice note doesn't prove anything. In this era of propaganda, a Yoruba man can be behind the voice, who knows?

Actually, Jaja Wachukwu (first speaker of the house of reps) might have uttered the phrase before Zik did. It stirred up a storm at the time as well.

Second, it is not possible for an Igbo man to gather a group including Hausas and Yorubas and start educating them on how Igbos will subdue them. It is not possible.

Don't disturb yourself on Bigots. They are so good with fabricated news to suit their tribal sentiment.

Nigerians cannot moderate how Igbos should behave, so relax. The successes of the Igbos cannot be tamed.
