I know azikiwe aligned with north,but you must look at things in a better way.
If we continue bashing and fighting ourselves,it will amount to nothing,rather than disharmony.I don't hate the Yorubas.
I'm Only seeking if they could be southern alliance to aid growth.

You are a rational mind, same cannot be said for your people.
Imagine always blaming Yoruba for Azikiwe's lack of foresight, Azikiwe did not only sabotage the secession clause, he also joined the North to delay Nigeria's independence for two years.
SW was colonized separately, the current Nigerian high commission office in UK, used to be the embassy of Western Nigeria in UK.
If the secession clause was included in the Nigerian constitution, Awolowo would probably have pulled SW out even before 1963.
Awo is a man that saw tomorrow, this was why he said Nigeria is a ' mere geographical expression " , not a country.
Did your people not labeled him a tribalist for his views?.
What Awolowo saw and demanded for secession clause to be included in the Nigerian constitution, Adaka Boro saw it, Ojukwu eventually saw it, the whole of Igboland saw it and this was why they support Ojukwu's Biafra agenda, unfortunately their fore fathers signed them into this union, forceful exit is a breach of contract, the owners of this slave ship the British will not take it.
Did Zik not cornived with his Fulani allies to carve out mid west?, Benin, Itshekiri, and Uhrobo are a sub Yoruba group or have they denied their identity?.
He still did the same to the Okun and Igbomina people, thank God for the likes of Olawoyin, who keeps reminding his people that " we are Yorubas we are not North".
Now tell me, 60 years later who in SW, SS, SE and MB is not seeing things from Awo's point of view today?.
Yorubas have since mapped out their survival strategy in a forced union like Nigeria, let other tribes too go and do the same.
Orun ma wo, kii se ori enikan.

Your Awolowo was the one that introduced tribalism in Nigeria.

I know your yoruba history never taught you about how Awolowo first fought Zik,when Zik won the prime minister of western region after independent.

Awolowo gang and fought him,saying that Igbo man can not be a prime minister of western region,even when Awolowo carry one Nigeria for head.
That was how tribalism came to Nigeria.


He had foresight by fight for one Nigeria,by starving 3 million easterner kids,by confiscating all money Easterner have in bank before the war.

We have seen Nigeria he fought with his foresight.

Why should Igbo man become the premier of SW?, igbo man no get homeland?.
No wonder Zik manipulated his malo friends to vote against. secession clause, now who's crying.

Spandau:
That I do not know. But what I know is that Igbos were going to invade the Western Region in order to win the war because Lagos was the FCT. They invaded Benin in the Mid-West and committed war crimes( I got proofs), tried to enter Yoruba territory via Ore in present Ondo State. They were stopped by the Yoruba elements in the army in the fiercest battle in the history of the civil war. If you were Awolowo, would you fold your arms? They could have headed Northwards and exact revenge for the pogrom committed against them. The Hausa/ Fulani/ middlebelt elements in the army then were classic mumus who lacked sense, discipline and decorum so it would have been not too difficult to tackle them.

Besides, much earlier before all the coup and katakata, Awolowo suggested that a clause be put in the then constitution to allow for easy secession of any component region back then, the Igbos confronted him and stated that the unity of Nigeria was non-negotiable. All because they were jealous of the advantages in Lagos and Ogun state. If they had cooperated with Awo back then, all the mess we got ourselves into that led to the civil war and present problems by these cows from the North would not have happened. Back then, the Igbos and Yorubas had the intellectual advantage tthat these Muslim terrorists can still not match till today.

You get time dey explain, since the colonial days, Igbos have been nursing a secret agenda, of hijacking Yorubaland from the inhabitants.
And there were some dafts like Adeniran Ogunsanya, who can't even read between the lines dancing along with them.
God bless Awolowo for noticing the hidden agenda and promptly nipping it in the bud, imagine Zik as premier of SW?.
Go and watch why Akintola had to die.
Everything is on youtube.
Oko kii je ti baba t'omo ko ma ni aala, let Igbos mind SE and leave SW alone.

chiagozien:
Why then did the same Awolowo join hausafulanis to Fight war against Easterners if truly he knows that?

Let me help you, so you don't know how zik and the East, been dey play uncle Tom to both the British and the North?.
So how can war break out between the north and the East, but the East is now bringing the war to the west?, which kind wahala?.
Is it not better to join force with the north to send the invaders to hell?.
If You are in Awolowo's shoes, would you have done it differently?.
Omo Ina la ran si ina, period.

Mayeldah:
That's how they started in Kwara years backs, today there are no Obas or baales in Kwara state. The Fulanis have taken over all the cultural stools available.

That's just the plain truth, @the bold.

Why are you people just finding out the bolded?.
They were called AGIP for a reason in the past, the SE has always been the patner of the north.
Anytime they fell out with the north, they will suddenly remember the south and why south needs to unite.
The people they can misled are kids born after 1999, no serious minded Yoruba will fall for their tricks.

tunjiajayi:
While this is bad for the institution if true, it is truly sad for the country's anti corruption drive.

But the thing wey this news do yamrees Na another level of painment and lament

Was there. anything like Tinubu case at the EFCC?.
Bloggers exploiting peoples state of mind to drive traffic to their blogs.
Even AIT had to settle out of court for making that stupid documentary on Tinubu.
Who God has blessed no man can curse jor.

jude79:
I remember watching Lord of the rings ; when theoden king of Rohan said that he doesn't want open war with ravaging orcs, but Aragon answered him "open war is upon you whether you like it or not" so Yoruba leaders should plan, for war, if they want peace. Some Savage clans do not understand dialogue, you only reset their brains by violent confrontation.

When your neighbours in the south south are not ready to join you to fight any war, na Yoruba go join you?.
You better start looking for your war allies elsewhere, look at where SE is today, if there was no war will south East be in that sorry state?.
Yorubas already factor the aftermath of the war into consideration a long time ago.
After the annulment of June 12, there was mass insurrection, infact when Abacha took over he made a famous statement, " clear all living things ".
The leader of the Yorubas then Late pa Abraham Adesanya called an urgent meeting and warned the Yorubas, that the useless Abacha wants to destroy SW, our cities social infrastructures will not be spared.
All these facilities takes money to put in place.
So a civil disobedience tactics was adopted, people still die but it wasn't a mass suicide.
Did Abacha not die a shameful death?.
Yorubas will rather minimize their exposure than making senseless moves and throwing it all away.
Look at what happened in Lagos of recent, imagine the burning of BRT busses and so on, Yorubas will never support such destruction, now add human casualties that will happen too.
Yorubas will never stand for such so look for your allies elsewhere.

TheNeededShock:
But you don't see us(Yoruba's) putting noise in matters that concern subhuman nyamiris or their cursed region.

Yoruba don't give a bleep about them, won nja ni ile keji o kan wa.

od501:
As for the reprisal, let them come, we are not new to war. Only if they know what awaits them.

As for the governors, that's what they are good at, serving their fulani masters in Abuja, we will deal with those ones later, they are not Important for now.

As for interfering in your business, that's an igboman for you, we look at for our neighbours, especially when they don't have balls.

One thing about the westerners is that you are too glued to your ego. Give it a break and extend the hand of followership to the igbos let's dissolve this contraction, this abomination called Nigeria. You guys need help, admit it.

People said they are not interested in your approach you said they need your help.
Always nosing around abeg keep your withered hand, na the same thing make Ojukwu lost the Biafra war.
As it was in the beginning, so shall it be in the end.

Man Must Wack Jare

Next time Afenifeoriburuku should embark on hunger strikes, this may make Yorubas listen to them, Mahatma did it for India, Mandela did it for his people.
Sometimes these useless politicians will just be using. people to catch cruise, I'm so happy they were disgraced by the people.
Afeniferawon should start by telling Yoruba people how the meat sellers and their families will survive without the cow.
Afeniferawon collected money from Obj, collected money from Goodluck, probably collected money from Atiku, and this includes other gratifications like employments for their children.
How many ordinary Yorubas benefited from all these money?, and they will beat their chest that they are protecting Yoruba interest.
I'm happy they were disgraced, may be they should visit the abattoirs to enforce compliance, so that omo eleran can give them some tribal marks with the butchers knives.
When next they decided to play politics with people's food, they should make sure they've made provisions for alternatives.
Awon agba oshi.

gidgiddy:
My point is that that nobody has to be s citizen of a country to live in that country. Some people believe that the only way someone from the South East can live in the North is if there is "one Nigeria". Thats nonsense

If Nigeria breaks up into say, Arewa, Biafra and Oduduwa, everyone will apply for Visa like everyone else when they want to leave their territory

Best of luck applying for visa to the North.
What will you do if your visa application is rejected.
My take on all these is that once Nigeria breaks, things will never remain the same.
So people had better make provisions for eventualities.

theFilmtric:
into how many parts?
The resulting countries would be far too weak
Compared to 2 parts
The South will be modelled after the USA with some modifications
Each region has a good deal of autonomousity
It is far better

theFilmtricsay

Southern Nigeria will be Nigeria all over again.
Give me SW, the rest of Nigeria can do what pleases them.

gidgiddy:
If the North cannot accomodate a South Eastern businessman unless there is "one Nigeria", then it means that Nigeria is a fraud. Do you know how many Lebanese businessmen there are in the North? Where is "one Lebanon"? Talk some else

Now read and understand what you post all over again.
Have you heard of territorial integrity?, Nigeria is already a fraud, was this not the reason for the disintegration.
Once everyone answer their papa name, non indigenes becomes foreigners.
If the immigration laws of the new country doesn't favour foreigners staying behind, foreigners will face deportation.

theFilmtric:
that's why there should be three autonomous regions
If the people see that it is progressing they would be more patriotic
There would be healthy competition within the regions which would promote progress
The presidency would be rotated every 3 years between the regions
Countries like Australia,New Zealand have hundreds if not thousands of tribes
They are doing well
And there isn't really much difference between us
We're far more similar than we think
Foreigners know this
South Nigeria confederate would make a better country than the Biafra,Oduduwa and Niger delta
The northern oligarchs are the problem
They're the ones that sowed the seed of disunity
The North is united
The south also should
Cc SouthNigerian

theFilmtricsay

Northern oligarchs are not the problem, did the northern oligarchs abort the first republic?, did the northern oligarchs abolished regionalism system of governmen left behind by the British?.
Have you heard about ARABA?.
I'm for total disintegration of this country, this is when everyone will sit up.

Wahala is when your supposed enemy is advising you with so much care and concern about your welfare

The union chairman already said they're ready to bear the losses as its a small price to pay compared to their dear lives.

So why all this appealing and begging to reason with you? Why not reason with them since you're so concerned about their welfare and condition of their goods?



Ah Ahn... See love... Observing in 4D.

The matter taya me o.

raddyworld:
Can u have any history without beginning? Can u have a story without the beginning? Can u know the solution to a problem people seems not to understand without the trace from the root.
I can see on most thread people blaming Tinubu for all wrongs in Nigeria when he is not the president.
Now afonja or whatever are ur leaders innocent of crime?.
Now I didn't vote Buhari bcus he is never my dream leader. But here with are with u people who will never learn just jumping around.
If I have better person who is powerful and can rule then I will vote for him instead of tinubu. But tell me the saint among all.
You people plunged Nigeria in to this mess to ur tribal sentiment.
It all started with Jonathan time.
If the Eastern people continues with this attitude two things will likely happen
1. Eaither the northern take the power again in 2023
Or
2. There will be war that will lead to separation.

Buhari has his ambition and not Tinubu.
For me.
I will first blame Jonathan
Blame Buhari and lastly blame Tinubu.
What Tinubu did can be done or has being done in your offices.

The only solution to the problem of this country is for secession clause to be included in our constitution, so that people can decide if they want to remain Nigerians or not.
The two worthless southern presidents since 1999 cannot pretend, that Nigerians love living together.
The tribes living in Nigeria collectively hated each other why not use a legal tool like secession clause in the constitution to dismember the country.
Tinubu this Tinubu that, Tinubu is a politician he will only take decisions that favours his party.
How many republican sinators voted against Trump in the second impeachment trial?, few.
Did Trump incite the capitol hill invasion or not?, yes he did.
But why did the majority of the republican sinators protect Trump?, Trump drives in the money and he is also a major financier, so the sinators did what they feel is profitable to them.

dat9jaguy:
This statement got me laughing, e ma tan Ara yin.

Cele n'tan won, awon na ntan abela.
Gani Adams and their fellow numbskulls be like boycott cow meant.
I thought dey already made provisions for an alternative, , the drama and the commotion yesterday at Oshodi market here was really comical.
Social media na noise, the reality is out there.

dvkot:
truth be told sacristy will increase price,
but the north will suffer it too.. cos there would be surplus in their land and they won't recover of the losses they made. most of their perishable goods will spoil so they will lose huge amount in the process. The south will not suffer at all they will adjust and adapt and get alternative to the situation.

The south should declare 200 days fasting program.
Its time to move closer to God.

Fake News. Fake survey by northern Nigerian Tribune.

Tribune is a caliphate newspaper.

They do not want us to stop eating northern Kpomo, Shaki, Wheat, Millet, Pumpkin, Okra, Tomatoes, Beef, Ram, Undwarfed goat, Fish, Yam, Sesame, Cashew, Beans, Spring onion, Moringa, Carrots, Garden eggs, Baobab, Hot Chilli (Atarodo), Tatashe, Green Peppers, Green Peas, Neem (Dogonyaro Wonder Tree), Kilishi, Garlic, Lettuce, Sweet Potatoes, Soyabeans, etc.

The North is a desert. They have nothing to offer.
Can anything good come out of the north?


Give it another 3 months, they will be tired.

CHAI.

plaindealer:
Playing catch up with the North is doable, but it won't be easy, the North developed their agric system over several decades while we moved away from agric, our cocoa, and rubber, we rendered ourselves to consumers and created perpetual dependency while we turn over tens of billions of Naira per day in food bill to the North. That's a lot of money.

Imagine the SW saving billions per day and keeping that money in the SW to improve our agric system and for development across the SW.

The North's main advantage right now is their vast irrigation system, something the SW don't know anything about, and until we iron out a broad irrigation system via our streams and rivers, figure out what to plant specifically in or states, where and how to raise animals for meat and dairy, storage, distribution, and export channels, we are just not going anywhere regardless of how many trucks we buy.

Just imagine, we have IITA in the SW right here under our nose and we are still dependent on others for food and basics, it's deplorable.

You have said it all, omo that irrigation is the key to their agricultural success in the north.
Their governments invest heavily on dams too, this is what helped the irrigation.
When we are done gnashing our teeth, we go learn one or two things from the northern agric set up.
In the meanwhile, lets pray for food to come in or else, ebi ni pa monamona ku.
Pardon my use of language, I'm a realist I don't like deceiving myself.

dangotesmummy:
Smh

Politicians are the ENEMIES of this country.it is glaring now

Eye don dey open small small, last last people will not wait for the police.
People will fish them out and they and their sponsors will be exposed.
That is when the whole world will know those who are dressing as Fulani herdsmen, to unleash mayhem on the country.
This exposure has already happened in southern Kaduna, God will make it happen all over the country.

Charmingrascal:
I am very sure those kidnappers were not Fulani.

They are people who know the owner of the farm and knew he was in the Country and was coming to the farm.


Fulani can't penetrate Lagos, I am so sure of that.

God will expose all of them.

I wonder why these red mud kids have their seminal fluids all over the thread.Now the whole thread is wet.Una just pack the matter on top head like gala.If he had said Yorubas prefer alliance with Ebow, y'all would have w.an.ked.Now he said Hausas, why dangle your d!cks again

Southerners are not suppose to depend on Northerners for food supply in 1st place

Post of the year, if you see what happened in the market today, you go shame for people of the South.
Just few days, tomatoes is now one for #50 small sizes for that matter and people that are not aware of what is going on are left stranded.
Shameless folks making mouths online on empty bellies, aboki already see our weakness and they will exloit it to the fullest.

This does not change the fact that in Australia there are 48 million kangaroos and in Uruguay there are 3,457,380 inhabitants. So if the kangaroos decide to invade Uruguay, each Uruguayan will have to fight 14 kangaroos.
