Nobody is unsettled here.

Just a few misguided fellows and ladies.

If anything, people feel sorry for the trouble their actions will get them into.

Nothing more than that.

The overwhelming majority of people all over the South want serious changes in how the machinery of the Nigerian state works. But, any call for separation has no traction at all in the SW.

But your people are trooping to Oyo , Lagos and Ogun state like faeces flies daily for greener pastures..

But other schools of thought said the agitation might have been propelled by the agitation for restructuring and to pass a message to the president to fast-track the process of restructuring.

Political Science teacher Prof. Gbade Ojo said the renewed agitation has nothing to do with the fact that a Yoruba man is in the saddle.

He said an average Yoruba man is uncomfortable with the existing federal arrangement, so taking up arms to take over government in the name of Yoruba nation does not make sense.

According to him, the agitators had made a statement about the need for restructuring of the country. He however said the lesson of the agitation is for the government to be more committed to the project of restructuring.

“They have made a statement and the statement is that Yorubas are agitating and the issue of a Yoruba man being president is meaningless. Their own desire is a kind of restructuring which Tinubu has promised but he cannot go all hog to pursue restructuring primarily because of his second term.

“The agitation may be uncalled for in terms of violence but the issue is that the Yorubas are gradually becoming uncomfortable with the federal arrangement. The federal character principle is observed in abeyance. The Federal Character Commission is not monitoring anything. Recruitment is not being supervised. The same set of people from the same ethnic group or the same religion may be recruited at a go in an agency or parastatal or organisation that claims to be federal including federal universities,” he added.

Instead of only clamping down on the agitators, the university don challenged governments at the federal and state levels to make life comfortable for the people.

“Salaries have not been increased for over a year now after the subsidy was removed. The state of the economy is bad. The Oodua states should demonstrate more commitment in taking care of the people,” he said.

Another Professor of Political Science, Sylvester Odion also stated that the renewed agitation was to pass a message of restructuring to the president.

“It is not about a Yoruba man occupying the presidency, it is about restructuring the country. No indication yet that Tinubu will pursue that cause,” he said.

But analysts say the authorities in the South-West must go beyond clamping down on the perpetrators to find out the motive behind the renewed agitation.

It just shows Yorubas are alert now more than ever..
I laighed when I saw Igbos clamouring for Military to take power from PBAT, a Yoruba man through coup.. like they expect over 80 million Yorubas including those in the diaspora to just sit down, fold their arms and do nothing. They feel they'll sit down comfortably in Lagos and other parts of Yorubaland and be doing their business while pretending as if all is well.

Paid agitation. Paid by Tinubu as usual to send signal to his northern critics that Yoruba will secede from Nigeria if Tinubu's government is sabotaged.
Tinubu sponsored same Yoruba Nation agitators before the 2023 General elections as Plan B in case Buhari refused to hand power over to Tinubu.
Yoruba Nation agitators even waved flags of Yoruba Nation in front of London Chatham House while Tinubu was speaking inside the House.

DestinyNigga:


To tell you the truth, if Hausa/Fulani conduct military coup today, they will definitely succeed. Do you expect SS,SE or middle belt to come to your rescue? That when you will know the full meaning of OYO. You have succeeded in making enemy with your Southern brothers.

Unlike the yeast, which people take so seriously to the point it's the most irrelevant region in Nigeria (Niamey is even more relevant to Nigeria than it).

rotadeco27:

Aptly spoken. That is just the truth and I'm sure the north has gotten the signal in full strength. The reason why Nigeria is still one today is because of the west. Two major tribe can not be agitating to go and such nation remains one. All is for 2027 re-election.
