when it suits them,they will tell you yorubas dont care about religion and are very tolerant,this is an eye opener to the follow-follow yoruba christians who dont know there left from there right.
It seems to me that hatred and disunity is the sermon these muslims recieve from there mosque,if not why always enlarge issues that tend to divide yorubas more than issues that unite them. If is not MSSN,it is council of Ulamas south west zone,then is the extremist psycho at MURIC,always bickering with Yoruba christians,Oro Masqurade or other yoruba traditional religion.

TooNoisy:
Choosing a VP from the South East was a great miscalculation. Peter Obi is not going to substantially increase PDP votes because the South East was going to vote PDP. Choosing Obi will at most add 250k votes to what Jonathan had the last time. Unfortunately, he will lose the South West by a wider margin than Jonathan did.

All South West Governors are APC, the VP is from the South West and the Tinubu factor will make Atiku lose. The truth is that the PDP have neglected the South West for a long time. There is no one from SW in the top echelon so it will be very difficult for Atiku to win.

PDP is now dominated by Igbos. The top leaders are now Igbos. VP candidate, Party chairman and even highest ranking member in the Senate. All these people are Igbo and we all know how Igbos play their politics. Rather than build bridges with other regions, they actually destroy bridges. Igbos will create enemies for Atiku in the other regions especially NW and SW. And we all know those two regions contribute 46% of the voting block. Once Buhari wins NW and SW, it's game over. SE don't have the numbers.

You guys are so pathetic,you want to reap where you did not plant,as its common with you cowardly yorubas,you where very much at home with the APC arrangement where no igbo was given any reasonable position,for your ilks,it means 'bridge building',when others are denied and you are favoured.
The same way you keep accusing PDP of always marginalizing the yorubas,PDP made a yoruba man (obasanjo) its first president and yet you want to 'eat your cake and have it',always at the detriment of others.
For you guys,its always about your yoruba interest and not for the interest of nigeria,our economy is going down the drain,people from minority tribes are massacred on daily bases,unemployment is at its record height,we are now the world capital of poverty,it dosent matter to you guys,all you want is a yoruba vice president,as the nation can burn to hell,for all you care.
Once a gain,you and your ilks are the problem of this country.

Is old age a factor of death?if so,should we then remain young forever? The emptiness of life!

PassingShot:
I have to agree with Omokirikiri this time.

I’ll rather not have a wife than have one who feels she’s entitled to having her way every time just because she’s the wife of the president.

Had PMB used his influence to impose Aisha’s brother on Adamawa APC, it’s the same idiots celebrating her now that will shout “nepotism”.

She’s no different from Mama Patience Jonathan who pushed her husband from the cliff edge. Had PMB not been a REAL man, this mumu Aisha would have turned herself to a demi god.

Better she seeks for a divorce if she can’t put up with her husband strict principles.

where was your PMB when against the wish of ordinary lagosians,Tinubu imposed a junkie as APC candidate against our much loved Ambode!
The same is about to happen in Imo state,where Rochas okorocha is trying impose a punk on the people!

This woman will do well in PDP,she has a mind of a revolutionary,she should join hands with like minds and youths to move this nation forward!
Those authocratic juntas in APC must be sent home,we must stop this APC anti-clockwise movement and serial massacre!

I dont understand what some persons will stand to gain in using falsehood to divide the country along Religion lines. Sanwo-olu is a christian and from a christian Background. Dabo Abiodun is also a Christian. Nairaland mods need to do something about this before it will turn to something else..

Am suprise at the rate the op was attacked,every yoruba muslim here stood firm against his assertion and he has been chastised,everyone kept saying that he wants to bring division among the yorubas,which is understandable but what i dont understand is the deafening silence from Yoruba muslims when Muric do same,i guess this is hypocrisy of the highest order.
southwest christian must rise up to the occassion...people should condemn muric for always dividing yorubas on religious line,this is the point op is making.

Ibrahimmrfish:
Every Muslim leader in Nigeria condemned boko Haram at the beginning,some were even kill by boko haram for doing that,shaik Albany was an example of that. Like it or not CAN is part of the problem in Jos.

The last time i checked,muslim leaders are nt condemning the terrorist fulani herdsmen but rather they have been defending there atrocious act and even working hard to forcefully collect lands from states across Nigeria and hand over to them as grazing reserves!
Dont also forget that El rufai governor of kaduna state once confessed to have paid money to this killer group to stop killing.
...'dont also forget this statement by your leader 'an attack on boko haram is an attack on the north'. I rest my case.

As the days passes by,am more convinced that the genocide serially committed against the minority christian tribes of middlebelt,is a welly organised agenda of the Hausa Fulani muslim north with the aid of Nigerian military and some willing clandestine organizations like muric.
To see how demonic Muric is,there was no mention of the welly documented massacre and serial genocide against the beroms by the privilege government pampered terrorist fulani herdsmen. For muric and other muslim authorities,christian lives doesnt matter.
Nigeria is only postponing the evil day,the unity is bound to collapse,sooner than later. The leadership of this nation has been thrown to the dogs!
Miscreants like muric now speaks for muslims,i spit!

CLIQBOY:
If reverse was the case,
if that list contain 90% Northners
you will be should tribalism,

who's the hypocrite now?

i dont do your tribalist game but you know as while as i know that the reverse couldnt have been the case,you can only hear of the core muslim north when it has to do with appointments,favouritism and quota system but if is anything achieved through hard work and merit,forget the north...like someone said,'monkey dey work,baboon dey chop'!

Osunites unite. Don't be fools by giving ur future to anyone who will not value u enough. Don't fall for any politician's antics. Be wise in your choice. Then, defend ur choice. U shld know better: this is not just about polytricks. It's about your family's future.

you are on point,efforts must be geared towards voting in PDPs Adeleke,not those criminals in APC that keep borrowing and collecting bail out fund,there by morgaging the future of our children. Workers are owed for several months,resulting to untimely death of parents,creating more orphans daily and infrastructures are noting to write home about,standard of education keep falling as the day passes by.
Osun we must vote in PDP,ur vote is ur power!

...are we actually on 4G in Nigeria,i doubt! The speed more often than not is just like 3G or at best 3.5G!

The way these people disrespect and ridicle there elders is annoying,atleast there should be decorum in the way these things are handled...imagine Niger state governor sealing off IBBs or Abdulsalams farm or gov Lalong sealing off Gowons farm in plateau state. All hell will be let loose.
The governor of oyo may only want to tell (PMB) his benefactor,that he has got the balls to denigrate OBJ. Even among thiefs there is honour,why would a people mess there own up,just to impress Abuja and prove there loyalty.

kudos to the young man...how i wish this contraption called Nigeria wil offer our vibrant youths opportunity to reach their dreams.

As the issue of Biafra stands now,i can tell you that nobody can stop an idea whose time has come,its either you change by it or the wind of change will dissipate you.
Whenever you push a man to the wall,he will definately repel!
.....the blood of innocent biafran agitators killed by the ruling civilian junta,will some day water the trees of freedom!

ok
i wonder why some people are celebrating this arrant nonsense,when there is nothing on ground to show for it,the populace has never been this impoverished in the history of Nigeria.
Our monolithic economy which is dependent on oil,seems to be stable because of the positive price of oil in international market.
If oil price goes on the negative our so called highly rated economy will rush straight into recession.
Worst still,our high debt ratio,will easily give away our economy to the highest bidder...we are about morgaging our national infrastructures to china.

The Igbos are a proud,ambitious,educated,enterprising, industrious and God fearing people,whenever and wherever they find themselves the try to identify with there unique culture.
What a people,they have an undying spirit and they always crave to attain high goals.
Someone said 'igbos make the world go round'. One love!

mikkyjay:
Going by this I think your tribe is the bitter and backward one, you are the first to attack her entire tribe because you think she is wrong.
How backward and senseless!

it seems you are new in this forum,this is there modus operandi,they Yorubas are always first to call out igbos and when you give them what they deserve,the start shouting 'your people are so hateful',they cant stand a single discussion without calling out the igbos.
I see it as a sign of weakness and lack of intellectual grit,an intellectual discussion is going on,rather than present superior arguement,they are shouting igbos up and down. And ofcourse, trust igbo lads,they will always give them what the deserve.

TheUbermensch:
Of a truth you're correct.

Most people just appreciate the fact that "Oby was served". Whether she was served correctly or not it's not their business.

The same impoverished and jobless youths she is trying so hard to liberate from there deceptic and thieving leaders...'slaves that loves their chains'.

I ve problem commenting on nairaland,you could imagine supposedly schooled youths arguing ignorantly,the question is cant we go for reforms that can transform the economy,putting round pegs in round holes as witnessed with the 'Asian Tigers',why do we always have to go begging when we misuse recovered loots,when we have not succesfully blocked loose funds,when we avoid proper audit of NNPC,where oil revenue remain unremitted at the mercy of our thieving leaders,cut cost,avoid capital flight, we must find a way to free ourselves from excessive loans whether from China ,world bank or IMF.
We must also be wary of neo-colonialism by china,they come with loan packages that are lined up with traps,example, they give you 1billion dollars,which is meant for building rail way,there company comes in for the construction,they bring in technical and skilled labour from china,use chinese investment banks as co parterners,for the 1billion dollars project,800 million dollars goes back into equipments from china and over head cost of labour from china,what you get as a country is roughly about 200 million dollars out of the 1billion dollars loan.
That is only about 20% of the initial loan which must be payed back in full with accruing interest.
We must force our leaders to carryout reforms,create enabling environment that will attract foreign investors,rather than always having to jump from one avoidable loan to the other...are we not victims of darkness?

The so called human right activist lawyer,whom over the years pretended to be on the side of the masses,started bootlicking this government just because he want them to influence his quest for SANship that has been impossible for him to attain over the years,they did exactly that for him and rewarded him with the position of a spokesman for Buhari campaign team.
He became a government puppet,started defending corrupt APC leaders in and outside the court even against the same masses he rode on there back to get to the limelight.
He is a true case of what hunger can do to the conscience of a man.

In a decent society,he should have been arrested,but is Nigeria a decent society?A fulani man came out some time ago to tell Nigerians on facebk how no amount of life killed is worth the life of cows and your DSS loooked the other way.

we have an inept and incompetent leadership and we are paying the price.

Nigeria is in total state of anarchy,a nation in a war against itself while the ruling class is thinking of 2019 and how to outwit each other.
Its so sad that the present leadership of this country is so weak when it comes to internal security and has so much messed up the security system on the corridor of cheap politics,while the military,police,Effc and Dss are only busy going after Mr presidents percieved enemies.
I pray Nigeria gets over this disastrous leadership,2019 seems too far away.

if this is true,then it means the plan B of this quasi-nazi regime has just started..some peoples ambition is worth the blood of Nigerians.

dingbang:
Igbos be claimjng they developed lagos, Why can't they go back and develop their own cities? Look at anambra, Enugu, Ebonyi, even Abia state!

The thread didnt mention Igbos or are you indirectly begging them to come and fix Tincan-Apapa road !lol

Igbos are capitalist,for them its survival of the fittest,no time for welfarism,it is very hard for a core-northerner to understand this,in a region where people are satisfied to have one alhaji taking care of the whole community and all they do is to say 'ranka dede',no competition and no self will to attain great heights as individuals. This is not an attempt to ridicule the north,there are also very hard working northerners whom have made it legitimately in there chosen professions but the majority of its populace needs serious value re-orientation.
I think to be fair to the Igbos,they have paid there dues in keeping this deformed entity called Nigeria,i suggest cultural re-orientation in some part of this country.

I wonder how people like Joe Igbokwe sleeps at night...a man who has since sold his conscience for a pot of porridge. APC hoping to use intimidation to force people into supporting there demonic regime which is akin to Nazi government of Hitler!
I can assure you,they are in for surprises!
In higher climes,Joe Igbokwe would be made to do time behind bars for malign motives against the noble institution of the judiciary!

CilicMarin:
Has any election been held in Rivers State?

Yes but not gubernatorial!

why didnt APC win Anambra,SE is not SW where people are easily cajoled and where people like Tinubu can take a stand and impose it on his people.We are very independent minded and educated,we are capable of making informed choices as individuals.
Why didnt they try it with Wike in Rivers state.

BreakupNigeria:
Now, you are the one who is wrong. How does the Biafran war that was fought almost 50 years ago or the possibility of Igbos leaving Nigeria someday be the reason why Dangote or others don't invest in the East!? Does that even make sense to you? Let's even assume that we get Biafra today or tomorrow, do you believe that the Biafran government would confiscate the investment of foreigners?? Who does that?? This same Dangote has investments in far away countries like Ethiopia, Senegal and South Africa, now ask yourself, have those countries seized or ever threatened to seize his investments?? Nna let's stop deceiving ourselves and think deeply. These guys hate you and simply do not want to contribute to your growth in any way!!

nwanne get the point,am not justifying any stupid or whatever reason given by others not to invest in the East,am only making note of the fact that like the Chinese,Jews and Indians,that igbos are very enterprising and regardless of others not investing in the East,that we should be open to competition from enterprenuers/monopolist like Dangote,which makes us better.

BreakupNigeria:
We will declare Dangote cement contraband in the whole East once Ibeto completes his cement plants in Ebonyi state. The fulani bigot called Dangote decided ti build cement plants in other parts of Nigeria and even other countries while he built mega warehouses in the East. Rubbish, he won't sell a single bag in the East again!!!

No you are wrong,we know other Nigerians are so scared to invest in the East since after the civil war and they believe Igbos may leave some day. You see we igbos invest everywhere because like the chinese,Jews,indians we are very enterprising however Dangote has the right to sell his products in the East as we do elsewhere but i can assure you that Ibeto being an Igboman will give him a run for his money.We are capitalist in nature so we need competition from the likes of Dangote,it makes you better and it drives the desire to succed in you.
I respect every ambitious and good enterprenuer,i respect Dangote,i respect Ibeto,let the competition go on.
