Fool. Tofa had an ibo vp. Abiola lost in ibo land. Abiola won in the north that's why he on the election. He defeated tofa in his own state. Ibos organized a one million man to march for abacha. Ibos are pained that June 12 is recognized as democracy day.
Sophisticated Moro.n...
Anambra voted for MKO despite the fact that Tofa's running mate was an igbo man.
Azikwe was in MKO's camp, stop peddling fake news.
You're a suffersticated slowpoke and FYI another government can decide to cancel the date.

BTW I'm indifferent to the June 12 matter...

Like I said earlier you're ignorant and you don't know.
Check the result for 1993 election below:

Voter turnout was higher in the south than in the north. The Social Democratic Party (SDP) candidate Moshood Abiola received over 8 million votes, and won in 19 states and the Federal Capital Territory. The National Republican Convention (NRC) candidate Alhaji Bashir Tofa received over 6 million votes and won in 10 states only. Over 14 million people voted. Abiola won in Akwa Ibom, Anambra, Benue, Borno, Cross River, Delta, Edo, Jigawa, Kaduna, Kano, Kwara, Lagos, Ogun, Ondo, Osun, Oyo, Plateau, Taraba, and Yobe states, and the Federal Capital Territory. Tofa won in Abia, Adamawa, Bauchi, Enugu, Imo, Katsina, Kebbi, Kogi, Niger, Rivers and Sokoto States.

At this my age I dont chase FTC, I hereby pass the FTC to the guy below me.


Just do what is good and chase your happiness. don't let unnecessary things affect you. Your way might not be university, go home and explain, who knows maybe the threat of disowning you or even the actual disowning will set you on the right part of achieving your greatness.

Destiny differs...

Go home, call your parents and explain yourself to them.

It's your life not their lives, I believe you have your dream. Try and talk to your parents about it, I'm sure they will understand even if they get angry because they know if they don't understand their opposition might take you away from them and might lead you astray

I will advice you to be in good term with them even if you want to leave for hustling ground

God will strengthen you


I think the OP needs more advice

Meanwhile, the Texas-based Nigerian woman, Toyin, whose photos as been going around as the person that committed suicide is fake.
Toyin is alive, another woman committed suicide and has not been identified yet.

P.S- I'm not saying this information is true but I quoted you base on the information on the post and that's what the person you quoted is trying to know

You the ibos voted tafa and colluded with the military to scuttle the struggle. Daniel kanu was organizing one million Wawa pigs to March for abacha. Don't rewrite history. That's why Ibos are still pained over this declaration.
Ignorance is affecting you and you don't know.

Do you know that during his efforts to be the president of the country Azikiwe was part of his campaign team?

Do you know any other government that comes on board can scrap it if the government wishes?

Do you know that the umpire/chairman of NEC(as it's called then) during the 1993 election was an Igboman and his name is Humphrey Nwosu?

Now you know, so stop crying and accept the fact that if igbos align with hausa/fulani in an election against a yoruba candidate, the yoruba candidate won't even have upto 10-20% votes.
So check the % of the election result then and calm down

Good, why not let us do the %s? Also recall that 2015 saw the introduction of card readers and PVC.

Point 1 - Yorubas will not unite if the person is not from the South West. Well, 2011 results shows how this was untrue.

Point 2 - this is where I know the numbers may make the point not obvious but like I said earlier, despite the card readers, look at the %s and who was voted for. 2011 was widely distributed due to the candidates contesting but 2015 was Mr A vs Mr B.

Anyway, I hope we can both agree that election is just a number game. That x% voted for me does not mean they all spoke with one voice. It's data manipulation when some people try to ignore some little numbers too
Stop contradicting yourself please, aside from Lagos, the vote of two southeast states is more than the votes of the remaining southwest states in 2011 election.
Compare the distribution of the votes within the parties in the two election and you will see you are going against the picture you posted against my earlier point that most yorubas don't support other souther candidate except the candidate is from their side.
Even in 2015, with the low turn out of voters in southeast, southwest states aside except Lagos still have lower number of votes compared to the southeast states as depicted by the picture.

I think the pictures are self explained

Thank you for even making my point (bolded) in your previous quote reasonable with your pictures.
Now compare the voters casted by the south eastern states in 2011 vs 2015.... from the pictures kindly compare the total votes casted for each year. Had it been there is any major crises that claimed over 3 million lives within 2011 and 2015?

FYI they were not happy and satisfied with the government of the day and that's the reason majority of them didn't comeout to vote.
I would have said maybe those people that didn't come out to vote where involved

if you do the calculation you will see that the difference between the two candidates is lower than the difference between the number of votes casted in 2011 and 2015 in south eastern region.

How many Southwestern states have over 1 million votes in 2011 and 2015?

P.S- I also don't like involving in tribal argument but the difference is in the pictures you posted

The mistake he made was trying to impose is in-law on the people, if not this man deserve to be kept for future purpose.
I wish he can align with his opposition within the party and drop the idea of imposing his son on the people, so that he can keep pursuing his ambition for 2023.

Honestly I think he's the best person to rep Igbo in 2023 via APC considering his alliance with the party but he's the one doing himself by himself

P.S- I'm not a member of any party at least for now, I made my points from neutral ground.

koladebrainiac:
June 12 is a national struggle and not limited to Yoruba nation struggles. Jonathan did not declare June 12 a national day Obasanjo that benefited directly from the event did nothing. He even made so many efforts to ridicule the day itself.


They played politics with it.
Jonthan only tried to dangle icing cake. He did not even understand the struggle. he tried to name SCHOOL AFTER MOSHOOD which is irrelevant. the struggle is not only for Abiola but the entire nation. June 12 is a national struggle. a day one man robbed us all of our collective decision.

Now Buhari turned the whole thing around. He did one singular thing nobody has the mind to do in almost 25years. Politics or anything. even JONATHAN did play politics with it, but it did not work out.


But would this signify that Yoruba would vote for Buhari during 2019 election? well,as for me,i wont vote him,he still hasnt impressed me


But i dont know why Igbo are trying so much to condemn this day? its not as if they actually voted for Abiola or support june 12.majority of Igbo voted for TOFA. so why should their opinion matters?



whyy are they even getting from Nigeria? its not like they are either here or there.
Yoruba has ruled this country 8years,South South ahs ruled 6years, and for the sake of unity n fairness,we are saying the Igbo should make good calculation and vote for Buhari and wait till 2023 to compete. Not that its the idea thing,but we sey its the smartest thing to do. Maybe then they can decide to leave the union. its not a rocket science bro. this is politics. its not do or die.
Do you know that during his efforts to be the president of the country Azikiwe was part of his campaign team?

Ignorance is not an excuse, who is Nigeria's first president?
The South-south man got there not only by south-south's vote, Igbos contributed to his votes. If you check 2015, Igbos didn't come out to vote like previous election and it affected his chance but most Yorubas can't unite and support their fellow southern candidate if the candidate is not their own person.

A simple check on the definition of a linguist would have saved you all the time and energy you put in typing all that. The last time I checked the meaning of a linguist doesn't elaborate on wether you studied a language as a native or a foreigner. Please save us all this jargons.
the guy you quoted is actually right according to Google/dictionaries definition of a linguist.

1. A linguist is someone who is good at speaking or learning foreign languages.
2. A person who studies linguistics.

I think you should check Google and see for yourself

I have very good knowledge of skincare and beauty product. I won't go deep into my business plans for some reasons.

I have a very good knowledge of skincare and beauty care market and products that are fast moving. Yes I have been in the business line for years now and I know cosmetic products that move fast irrespective of the economic situation. I also have readily available market where I can kick start my products supply and they will accept it and this will help me in making making my product pent rate the market before I start my online market campaign.

Another area I will go into is paint production but that will be after my cosmetic products are already in the market and my business is doing well. I have people that will help e in pushing my products into the market if I go into business
