Yorubas are the greatest tribe in Nigeria. Nigerians kiss the Truth. The most educated. Tribe with the most successful pastors. Have produced lots of successful politicians including the great jagaban borgu. Tribe with the most successful betting and ICT companies including our beloved Nairaland. They lead in the music industry bagging Grammies everywhere. They lead in the diaspora a Yoruba man heads the US Treasury department. They have the second richest man in Nigeria. 5 Likes 3 Shares |

ariesbull: I got to the part in bold and abandoned reading further. One thing about Nigerians is that most are pathological and gleeful liars, casually deceitful, irredeemable mischief-makers and patently dishonest. This is why I appreciate my birth overseas in the West and my lengthy upbringing there. I know the true meaning of integrity, empathy and being principled. I know those should never be abandoned for expediency or a hidden agenda as most Nigerians are doing over this GRV situation. In the West, there is no way on Earth Pantami would have held on to his job after his controversial and openly biased views on religion in a multi-religious society. There is no way GRV, with the many disparaging and controversial views he holds against the Yorubas, would have become the candidate of any Party to become the Mayor of the cosmopolitan City of London and if he runs as an independent candidate then even public revulsion towards him would shame his friends and family to distance themselves from him. The man would be a political joke anywhere else, to include even African countries, but shameless Nigeria where Labour had the gumption to present him as their candidate for Lagos because of Obi's hidden agenda the Yorubas were aware of. GRV has made enough derogatory statements against Yorubas, showing there is a good chance he would be biased against them, to confirm most Yorubas have a valid case for vehemently going the extra mile to ensure he is not their Governor. Any principled person with integrity would agree the fear of Yorubas over GRV's ambition is valid and justifiable. It is no different to black folks the State of Georgia USA going on the war path over the attempt of an openly racist white supremacist attempting to be their Governor. What I find is many are deliberately avoiding talking about GRV's controversial views against the Yorubas, even if he claims to be one, that is far more than enough to ensure no Party would be shameless enough in the Western world to present him as a candidate for the leadership of a cosmopolitan State or City. Showing prejudice against a group, out of those you wish to lead, is ground for instant dismissal or disqualification for all Parties in the West. That Nigerians choose to ignore GRV's utterances a normal person would agree is more than enough grounds for the Yorubas not to want him as their governor reveals their lack of honesty, principles, integrity and empathy. They are not honest enough to admit what is obvious.They are obviously not principled enough to stand for what is right and behind those who have been wronged by the Labour Party that presented the Yoruba-hating GRV. They lack the integrity to apportion blame and culpability fairly as a wise and decent person would do regardless of whose Ox is gored and they lack the empathy to put themselves in the shoes of the Yorubas to simply accept, as is the case worldwide, that the ethnic group is right for vehemently rejecting the leadership of someone who patently hates and despises them . We must remember as well that GRV never apologised for his repellent views and utterances either. My opinion is that those blaming the Yorubas, who are the aggrieved Party, fall in two category. Non-Yorubas who despise the ethnic group and are simply using this GRV issue to sever their pound of flesh and Yorubas like OP of the article who are 'pleasers' obsessed with trying to look woke and Liberal even if that comes at the cost of throwing their own ethnic group under the bus. It is as simple as that because no ethnic group in Nigeria can accept what pathetic and unfair irritants and agent provocateurs are castigated Yorubas for rejecting. 5 Likes 2 Shares |

3 Ogu brothers from Ogun State were denied their slots because their names are Ogu names One is a lecturer now He will see this post Hopefully he might add more flesh to this post You know what they had to do? They had to change their names to Yoruba names so they could be accepted. It is that serious The marginalisation we suffer These are very brilliant men One of them is in the USA now A pharmacist He has taken a break from Facebook They are my Ogu brothers These are just few verifiable ones I can mention There is another, a DSS He won't even come here to contribute He will rather enter WhatsApp mode for a chat These are some of the fate we the Ogus suffer In fact, it is worse for the Ogus in Ogun State This is why I get really angry when I see some of my people from Badagry twisting into unrecognizable shapes to be accepted by the Yorubas It is a crying shame When they are done with others, you are next You will regret your roles Their leopards never change skin Those who can't talk are in my inbox For fear of being victimised The rest of us who have "loud mouths" are tagged as doing too much I don't even know how to scream it into yours ears; They. Don't. Like. You!!! In the past, some people would ask me if I can get them househelps from Badagry Since we are good at servitude, na God punish satan! I in turn ask them if there are no househelps from Ondo, Oyo, Osun etc? They can take one from their family members Or there is a special trait in Ogus that make them good for omo-odo? They will now say, "ha! Gloria, I don't mean it like that.." Don't tell me nonsense You mean it very well Sometimes I think you don't know how we got here We did not migrate here Oduduwa is NOT our progenitor We do not have same culture as them Our language is NOT a variation of Yoruba That is why we have Z, V, Th, X in our alphabets It is the misfortune of colonisation that mapped us into this space called Nigeria. One day, I will tell you how some quarters in Badagry later had Yorubas It is the miscalculation of our forefathers who went to borrow money from some traders. But today is not that day What have Badagry benefited from APC government in Lagos if not crumbs? If anybody must join them to call some people "omo ale", it must never be you, my people Oye gbogbo eja Ko ye awusu abigi lenu 1 Like

Creamcrest: This is a problem of black folks. Especially Africans. If you become too successful then your fellow men begin to hate and resent you. It is why Igbos, the most hateful and resentful ethnic group in Africa hates Tinubu passionately because nothing else fits as the man has never led them or harmed their interest. Rather the ingrates have thrived in Lagos under Tinubu and his successors. 2 Likes |

Creamcrest: In education, both the Yoruba and Igbo have produce world class writers in Wole Soyinka and Chinua Achebe. However the igbos have produce a successor to Achebe in Chimamanda Adiche. Yoruba is yet to produce Soyinka successor. The Yorubas led in Telecom due to Mike Adenuga globacom but the igbos led in Aviation through Air Peace. The oil and gas is dominated by northerners who own most oil blocks. The Yorubas have an upper hand in insurance but the igbos are leading in real estate and ICT. Almost 80% of the real estate companies in Abuja and Port Harcourt are owned by igbos. Those owned by Yorubas are mainly in Lagos where the igbos still have about 30%. 2 Likes |
