I never raised my voice against it, I have my issues with some of his decisions, including the 100days denial, am in support of pmb but not in support of the appointments. I believed he might have chose them for the right reasons but it was a wrong political move, he could have delayed the appointments and announced it when he has positions to be occupied by others thus creating a balance view of it.

NB. Am not a fan of juicy or non juicy position. Just perform in your field, then all will be right for us.

You are iddiot for supporting mediocrity. "Just perform in your field" with 2 and 3 as the cut off point you ride through to coming into your assigned office? When have you known northerners as performers? Foe how long did they rule this country in the past without any tangible progress to point at? All of a sudden, they will now under Buhari turn Nigeria into Europe with your stupid "Just perform in your field". It is the hypocricy of you yorubers that have kept Nigeria backwards for this long.

OlujobaSamuel:
you have to weigh the merit and demerits, I was once victim of the quota system on admission policy into unity school but never understood it then because I was too young. Do you know what the implication would have been if they are not learned as we are, an emir could rise up one to declare war and there would be no dissenting voice of caution amongst them. we now have muslim cleric in their midst condemning extremism. The few that are admitted base on this quota system are doing well at the long run. If all our security personnel, judges, policy makers etc, are from one part of the country, do you think they will happily accept posting to parts that have no representations. Nigeria is not yet ripe to be compared with the west pls, Africa problems require Africa solution, we all have different values which mostly influenced our decision or opinion.

So because of their stupidness, backwards and mediocrity, my people's development will be arrested? May i ask, for how long are we Igbos going to allow our development to be arrested because of some useless quota system created not by us, but by others in this useless union just to accomodate people that we are not even related to? What about letting all the separate countries inside Nigeria go their separate ways and each try to develop at their own pace? Must we live together in one useless country while some parts of it are holding the development of others to ransome because of their illiteracy?

DONMAYOR19:
ehen? but later they will still be the one to hold key position in the country and you people will start saying as far them work. the way some people reason just because of sentiment sometimes fit make person vex kill person. but is all allowed, is a faceless forum so anyone is entitle to his or her opinion.

The word "as far as they can work" only come from yorubas who are experts in supporting mediocrity. That Nigeria is a mess today is because of the yorobers support of northern mediocrity. They know that if things are done on merit in Nigeria, they will come only second to Igbos, so better for them that merit is thrown to the dogs since they can never dominate any sector that merit is allowed to rule.

meccuno:
I think you are very dum.b for this statement.......and that's me being polite.....why don't you make your child become an indegene of yobe state to make it easy for u? And you claim to be educated but you make statements that show how low your I.Q is and your ways of reasoning must you justify stvpidity because you are an idio.tic bigot?

He is yoruba, forgive him. They are known to always support mediocre of their northern masters.

cahnellven:
for those looking for an ILAJE Man that will claim yoruba, here I i am.

I am an ILAJE, and very much yoruba, no doubt.

Y is this question even up for debate?

It's like asking if a pathologist is a doctor, doesn't that sound ridiculous?

Speak for yourself man! My co-worker will not take that nonsense from anyone that tries to associate him with yoruba.

jaymichael:
If you can, you would have done so and gleefully shove the link down our throats. Your kind have been "factory-fitted" to cause trouble and mischief.

Only fools like you does not know that wikipedia can be reauthored.

dictbennie:
Can you explain why Arogbo-ijaw is included in that list of yours please?

No mind him, na so dem dey take claim all Ijaw land where they perceive have oil. Yorubas, why not allow people to be who they want to be?

prof17:
The only tribe that can have sex with their blood relation!! The only tribe that their girls mut give birth like one or two pikin before marriage!! The only tribe that a girl cannot take her bath and make up!! The only tribe that have the highest number of pastors yet. Cannot do without juju! A tribe that are slave to religion!

.............a tribe that are slaves to their northern neighbors. A trible that are afraid of succeeding on their own.

Self promotion propaganda that will get you no where. Where you got the fact of being more in number than the Igbo is still a mystre as Nigeria's silly census figures can not be relied upon. Igbo are the majority of all the Nigerian ethnic groups going by the facts of their numbers living in all over Nigeria (Lagos where they are more than half of the total Lagos population) and outside of Nigeria where they number in millions. Where you got the most educated is still unknown cause by the last time everyone checked with backed up statistics from WAEC and JAMB boards, Igbos are the most educated in Nigeria with the highest cut off marks. Most educated based on PURE facts and not emotions and propaganda.

I wonder what those silly awusa treckers will be thinking now.

Duru1:
Yari.ba peeps are from northern region of Nigeria.

They migrated from Sudan, then settled in northern Nigeria for a while before migrating SW ward to where they met the ilajes, aworis and other and settled amongst those. All these are well documented history.

Mckennedy:
I grow up at Badagry and they're Egun,, I even hear little Egun language.

Badagry's case is not even in doubt even to those yorubas trying to cause confusion among all these ethnic minorities of the SW. Badagry is pure Egun and no one dare try to lump them together with their yoruba neighbors. Moreover, the Eguns have their own distinct facial tribal marks far different from that of the yorubas. Don't know how some people will wake up every morning and all they will think is how to take over other people's lands and territories. Tufiakwa!!

ola6:
Lagos Island representing!!!

I am from one of the Royal Families in Isale Eko before Tinubu-ole gave it to Akiolu.

Nevertheless, PROUDLY AWORI!! PROUDLY YORUBA!!!

Abeg speak only for yourself. My awori co-worker will not take it lightly with you if you dare call him yoruba.

[quote author=Mckennedy post=37541571][/quote]I can easily re-author the wikipedia contents, so no sane human should rely on wikipedia for serious information.

Tinubu the thief and drug dealer for kirikiri.

olawalepopoola:
But some stupid and bastards on nairaland says AWORIS aren't Yorubas! Please clarify that

You see, he can't respond to you because he know deep inside him that he is not yoruba. And by the way, this thread if for aworis, so yorubas are not needed here.

anulaxad:
If you read my previous statements on this thread I have told you people already that [b]my mother is from an Awori backgroun[/b]d, sometimes I wonder if the people typing this nonsense are even human, have you been designed to cause trouble, an information website is showing you evidence and you are rejecting it, how senseless naive and arrogant can a human be? Where are you from sef?

If you are not Yoruba I have no reason to answer to you as you are speaking out of ignorance. Let us know where you are from.

Your mother might be Awori, but she is not Yoruba. You may be yoruba because your father is yoruba. Aworis that are claiming Lagos which though belongs to the Edo people once told all yorubas to pack and leave Lagos, true or false.

menabadoo:
forget wikipedia abeg

Wikipedia source is never reliable and every sane human knows this.

menabadoo:
Aworis are not Yoruba's, there was a time they asked Yoruba's to leave lagos for them. Ijebu too are not Yoruba's, oba of ijebu said they are Sudanese.

I don't know of egba but egun definitely not yoruba.

This is exactely what am trying to let the block heads understand, that when push comes to shove or otherwise, all those listed ethnic groups know exactely and will tell you in your face that they are not yorubas. Yorubas are fighting to take over Ilaje land convert Ilajes to becoming yorubas just because ilajes are the only ethnic group in the SW that have little deposit of oil. You know that without oil, Yorubas can not survive.

While this discussion was going on, i put a call to my co-worker and he still angrily told me never to associate his Ilaje group to Yorubas and hanged up on me, so now who do i believe? When you look at the facial tribal/trade mark of the Aworis, it's far different from that of the Ilajes and the Yorubas. The Ife people who are from Sudan also have different facial tribal marks.

anulaxad:
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Awori_tribe

The clan originates from one of Oduduwa's sons, case closed.

Please again change the name of this thread.

You are a liar. Anybody can log into wikipedia and write any rubbish which is never fact. You dare not even call people from Ijesha, Arogbo-Ijaw, Akoko, Ife, Ogbomosho and Okun Yorubas without getting a dirty slap in your face. The Ife people for example are from Sudan and this have been proven already.

Armaggedon:
Egun are clearly not yoruba, awori have repeatedly warned against being called yoruba.
An ijebu chief last month insisted they are from sudan and not yoruba. I think a proper study needs to be done to avoid lumping pple with another group against their will.

This is exactly what i want them to understand, but Ola6 is here claiming Yoruba when he is just Awori and nothing else. He need to ask his people serious questions about whom he is. Perhaps, he is still too young to understand exactly who he is, so we can forgive him. Those from Badagry don't even see themselves as Yorubas, talk-less of a full blooded Aworian.

jaymichael:
My Pastor is Ikale, he is even more Yoruba than me. These tribes you mentioned are Yoruba as 6 is half a dozen.

Do not speak for Ikales because you are not one of them, let them come in here and prove you right or wrong which i am sure youy are. I believe we have people from Ikale in this forum.

jaymichael:
Even the Apoi Ijaws in Ondo state are very Yoruba.

You are looking for trouble when you associate any Ijaw community to Yoruba. Na so una dey take grab land because of other people's oil? Tufiakwa!!

Femolacaster:
@op, i have never come accross any ikale, ilaje, egba, denoucing being Yoruba. They are all dialects in Yoruba language. Moreso, nobody is more "yoruba" than other, no division in Yorubaland. Though, i dont know much about Egun!

Believe me, my co-worker gave me serious warning never to call him Yoruba. He insisted that he is Ilaje and never to be called Yoruba. Why?

Are Ilajes, Aworis, Egbas, Ijebus, Ikales and Eguns really Yoruba? Infact who are the real Yorubas. I was discussing with my co-worker whom i thought was Yoruba, so as the dicussion progressed, i said something like "you Yorubas", and this guy got so annoyed and cautioned me immediately and maintianed that his ethnic group is Ilaje and wanred me seriously never to call him a Yoruba. He also made me to understand that even the Aworis, Egbas, Ijebus, Ikales and Eguns are different ethnic groups from the Yorubas. So my Yoruba peeps in here where is the different between you guys and the Ilajes.

Ofcourse, the sane and smart minds knew this all along. If not for the mugus, there is no way Nigeria will have this dullard as it's president.

DaBullIT:
He needs physical and mental therapy , needs to have a brain scan and he needs to be placed on a mandatory solidarity walk from wherever the hell he is to Otuoke

Mugu, your shame and idiocy will not allow peeps like you to admit you were scammed. Mr walking from Kano to sabongari. Idiooots

IbnSultaan:
u need psychiatric help

Useless Ewu awusa, are you one of them?

Where are those idiots that staged scam walk from all over northern cities to meet Buhari in Abuja for winning fraudulent ridden election? Where are they now to come see what their messiah has turned Nigerian into.

Aareonakakanfo:
Can you imagine? the same idiots who have lost millions of lives to a war whom you will expect to have some sympathy are celebrating the idiocy of Isreal because of religion. fools think Isreal is a christian country [b]Go there and preach to them about Jesus christ and have your head spin on the floor. if people start displaying pics of those big-bellied kwashiokor kids, we'll be pitying them not knowing we're pitying heartless sub-humans [/b]

No one is going to preach any religion to Isreal. They have their own religion which everyone MUST respect and they are not violent people, but will kill you off onetime if you bring violence against them. The boy being held by an Isreali soldier must have thrown a grenade to Isreali soldier with his right arm. Everyone know how violent those Palestinians can be and Isreal is no Biafrans (formerly though) that you think you can kill and get away with it. Palestinians deserve everything they are getting from Isreal, and hey, they should be made to move to other arab countries and leave the land for the original owners, Isrealis.

Are these people still wailing?
