lol. U guys still dont understand yoruba. People say igbos are chestbeaters and i laugh...if an igboman was president or vp...u will never see igbos use it to insult others...but wen the table turns to yoruba they start the usual political sophis...yen yen. They are vain glorious. Look at how they are telling igbos to leave lagos...no other ethnic group in nigeria will say that to another ethnic group. A yoruba man's mouth is his power...if u hear 10 times that 2 nigerians exchanged words abroad....10 out of 10 a yoruba must be involved.

Let them have their fun. They will use their ill thought action to create enough bad blood that will help end the nonsense country

One thing I have come to realize recently is that the North are ready to sacrifice the position of the SPEAKER to the SE in a bid to demystify the drug baron completely.

A close friend of the El-Rufai camp gave me an insight on how they plan to bring Tinubu down and cripple his influence.

Jason will be here to view how things unfolds.

Any information from El-rufai camp now Gbaja has emerge has speaker with unimaginable votes counts.

The new HOS, who hails from Ibadan, is the wife of a former Senate Deputy Chief Whip, Hosea Agboola, popularly known as ‘Halleluyah.’

You are probable ignorant about international politics, or should I say you know nothing about the Persians. No doubts Iran can't even dare confront the US unprovoked, that will be their end, but US will find it extremely difficult to defeat Iran in their soil, due to terrain, how determined the Persians are, allies in the region, etc.

Wars are not only won due to Sophisticated weapons, if not Isreal wouldn't have been defeated by rag tag Hezbollah militias, US wouldn't have been defeated by ill equipped Vietnam military, Saudi Arabia would have for a long time won the crisis in Yemen, etc.

Iran is threading with care, and they know they don't match the US, but if US dare attack her, they will fight US with all they have, The Persians fought Iraq will little international support even when Saddam Hussein was being supported by the entire western world, Iran back then had few weapons and depended largely on Foreign countries for military hardwares, yet they were able to push Iraq out of Iran and fought like never before, in fact they changed the objective of the war and was about encroaching Iraq. Iran fought to keep its sovereignty with tooth and nail even when Iraq was using chemical weapons on them.

Now fast forward to 2019, Iran has so many affiliated militias in Lebanon (Hezbollah, strongest in the world, that even the almighty Isreal would think twice before stealing Lebanese land), Houthi Shia groups (Yemen militias kicking Saudi ass in Yemen), Syria military (If not for Iran, The rebels would have defeated Bashar al-Assad), Iraq (Iraq is now an ally of Iran). That's not all, Iran has a homegrown military industry, they produce their own rockets, guns, submarines, aircraft (thou inferior), sophisticated missiles, etc, now tell me how you intend defeating a country such as this with ease? or you think Iran is Libya?

US knows this and they know invading Iran unprovoked will end their influence in the region, this war won't only end in Iran, it will affect all Middle East countries including Saudi Arabia and Isreal, Just an order from Iran and see how Hezbollah unleash their madness.

US is powerful, but wars are not always won by that. a war with Iran isnt what we should be praying for, as millions will perish. God heal the Middle East.

China, Russia are strong ally of Iran, N.Korea will act the spoiler, Iran control deadly militia in the Middle-East. It is not going to be away win for Uncle Sam. The economic effect is huge. It is obvious America can't control the split over effect aftermath of the war. Middle East might not remain the same again. Third World War might be trigger. In a nutshell U.S won't go to war, just looking for cheap avenue to bully Iran to submission.

Efewestern:
Who ever said Iran can defeat or confront US? can't you read and comprehend, or even read what everyone is saying here, Iran is no match to US, but US will find it extremely difficult to defeat Iran in their "Soil", Iran is not Iraq or Libya, but one of the major actor in the region, a force to reckon with, and you can't just say US will defeat them with a swift victory in their territory, even Americans won't agree with you on this, Iran has fought several battles in the past with no support from anywhere, yet they came out victorious, they won't sit down and watch you attack them, they will Fight, and the casualties on both sides will be very high. No country in her right mind will start a war with US, but if you invade any territory, regardless of how mighty you think you are, you will meet a great resistance, like the Vietnam War etc.

Invade and destroy Hezbollah , like they did in 2006 right? Isreal with her 30k troops were unable to defeat a rag tag men with just Ak7 and some few rockets, worst is they were not more than 2k, despite air superiority, sophisticated weapons, etc, they were chased out of labenon, that was in 2006 oh, now compare a conflict with both parties, now that Hezbollah has grown to become one of the world most strongest militia, even stronger than Lebanon military, Isreal isn't looking for any excuse to invade, Hezbollah dug a lot of tunnels last year, why didn't Isreal use that as an excuse to attack them like they always do to Hamas? I guess you know why.

Hezbollah destroyed the myth that Isreal can't be defeated in the 2006 war, in fact if not for them, Isreal would have annexed Some labenese territory. Read more and stop being ignorant.

Efe, it is obvious u are an expert in international relations and understand international politics, i must confess you are damn good. I will like if we can share ideas and probably work together on issue relating to international politics. This is mail truetalk087@gmail.com in case you want to reach me.

Nonsense. The more reason i love my state Edo state especially the Benin Monarchy. No Edo governor born of a woman ever dares the Benin Monarch. Benin is where the King is truly a King.

For your mind abi? Bro, any naija in King is under a governor and can be removed if find wanting, don't be deluded that any king is powerful and can be deal with, even Sultan can be dethroned and nothing will happen. That is how powerful a state governor is.

engreo:
Former Lagos State Governor and National Leader of the All Progressives Congress, Bola Tinubu is believed in many quarters to have played a significant part in the emergence of President Muhammadu Buhari after three earlier failed attempts.
While Buhari had been unable to get needed significant votes from the South West when contested at previous times under the platforms of the All Nigeria Peoples Party, ANPP (twice), and the Congress of Progressives Change, CPC in 2003, 2007 and 2011, the alliance with Tinubu’s Action Congress of Nigeria was the joker.
In 2015, Buhari won in five of the six South Western states, the only exception being Ekiti state. This can very well to attested to Tinubu’s influence.
Asides helping Buhari, Tinubu has also helped many many become what they are all over the country today. We bring you some of those men.

1. Yemi Osinbajo

Which name will first readily come to your mind for people in this category if not that of Yemi Osinbajo? The Ikenne born Professor of law, though an in-law of late sage, Obafemi Awolowo would most probably have ended his life in the classrooms, breeding new sets of lawyers of not for Tinubu.
Between 1999 and 2007, he served Tinubu who was then Lagos state governor as the Attorney General and Commissioner for Justice, quickly become a trusted ally of the Jagaban of Borgu.
When leaders of the APC was shopping for a running mate for President Buhari, who was then the party’s flagbearer, Tinubu forwarded Osinbajo’s name, and the rest like they say is history.

2. Babajide Sanwo-Olu

If the name Babajide Sanwo-Olu was mentioned this time last year anywhere, it will ring no bell, as it was take intense search on the popular search engine, Google for you to have any information about him. Fast-forward to now, and he will be sworn in as the governor of Lagos state in less than 30 days.
A Quantity Surveying graduate of the University of Lagos, Sanwo-Olu’s foray into politics started in 2003, when he was appointed Special Adviser on Corporate Matters to the then deputy governor of Lagos State, Femi Pedro, under the governorship of Tinubu at only 38 years old.
Tinubu then made him Acting Commissioner for Economic Planning and later Commissioner for Commerce and Industry, a position he held until the end of Tinubu’s tenure in 2007.
When Tinubu’s successor, Babatunde Fashola assumed office May 2007, he appointed Sanwo-Olu Commissioner for Establishments, Training and Pensions. Fashola’s successor, Akinwunmi Ambode also appointed Sanwo-Olu Managing Director/CEO of the Lagos State Development and Property Corporation (LSDPC).

Sanwo-Olu shot into limelight September 16, 2018 when he declared his interest to contest the governorship primaries of the APC in Lagos State against incumbent, Ambode. events that followed later, revealed that he had the full support of Tinubu who had already fell out with Ambode, another man he helped install.
Sanwo-Olu eventually won the primaries, and went ahead to win the March 9 governorship election in the state, defeating perennial contestant Jimi Agbaje of the Peoples Democratic Party, PDP.

3. Akinwunmi Ambode

Against all odds, Akinwunmi Ambode, a retired Permanent Secretary in the Lagos State Civil Service emerged the governorship candidate of the APC in the 2015 governorship election against the wishes of incumbent, Babatunde Fashola. He was the choice of Tinubu who ensured he defeated all other aspirants who were obviously stronger than him in the party’s primaries.
Ambode eventually won the election, and is the outgoing governor of the state.
Things however went from good to bad for him after falling out with his benefactor, Tinubu, who dumped him, and picked Sanwo-Olu in his stead.

4. Babatunde Fashola

Babatunde Fashola served in Tinubu’s government as his Chief of Staff between 2003 and 2007. Tinubu thereafter rewarded him, by handpicking him as his successor in the 2007 governorship election in the state, flying the flag of the Action Congress.
Fashola who is regarded by many as the best of the governors Lagos has had however was rumoured to have ran into troubled waters with Tinubu towards the end of his first term, with news going round that the House of Assembly was preparing to impeach him. Tinubu however cleared all doubts when he endorsed him for a second term in office.
The former governor of Lagos state is presently the Minister of Works, Power and Housing.

5. Kayode Fayemi

Kayode Fayemi first became well known for the part he played in Nigeria’s return to democratic rule. He was said to be the face behind the then Radio Kudirat.
Fayemi was eventually picked by Tinubu to run for the governorship of Ekiti state under the platform of the Action Congress of Nigeria, ACN in the 2007 governorship election. He won through the Appeal Court after the Independent National Electoral Commission, INEC declared Segun Oni of the PDP winner of the election.
Fayemi is in his second term in office, after failing on the first try to secure second term, losing the 2012 governorship election to Ayodele Fayose.

6. Rauf Aregbesola

Till date, Rauf Aregbesola remains one of the most loyal foot soldiers of Tinubu. Believed to be the one who had control over Alimosho local government, the LGA with the largest voting strength in Lagos, Aregbesola served as Commissioner for Works and Infrastructure to Tinubu.
In 2007, he was drafted to Osun state, where he contested the governorship election of the state under the platform of the ACN. He was declared winner by the Court of Appeal three years later after a protracted battle with PDP candidate, Olagunsoye Oyinlola.
Aregbesola recently concluded his tenure as governor, after ruling the state for two terms.

7. Lai Mohammed

Lai Mohammed preceded Fashola as Tinubu’s Chief of Staff, staying in office between 1999 and 2003, before going to contest the governorship election of Kwara state, his home state under the platform of the Alliance for Democracy. He however lost to Senate President, Bukola Saraki, Candidate of the PDP.
He was thereafter appointed Publicity Secretary of the Action Congress in Lagos state, before becoming the spokesman of the party which later became the ACN at the National level. When the ACN metamorphosed into the APC through merger, Mohammed also emerged National Publicity Secretary of the party, being very vocal against former President Goodluck Jonathan’s administration.

8. Ade Ipaye

Ade Ipaye is the Deputy Chief of Staff to Vice President Yemi Osinbajo, the same man he replaced as the Attorney General and Commissioner for Justice in Lagos State.
But before former Governor Fashola appointed Ipaye as his Justice Commissioner, it was Tinubu that took the law lecturer at the University of Lagos from the classroom to the corridors of power. During Tinubu’s eight year reign as governor of the state, Ipaye served as Special Assistant on Legal Affairs between May 2001 and May 2003, and was moved up the ladder by Tinubu, who made him his Senior Special Assistant on Legal Matters.

9. Gboyega Oyetola

Believed to be Tinubu’s cousin, Oyetola had been Aregbesola’s Chief of Staff since 2010 when he was Osun state governor.
He picked the ticked of the APC for the governorship election of the state in 2018, and was declared winner by INEC.
He is presently the governor of Osun state.

10. Femi Gbajabiamila

Femi Gbajabiamila, Majority Leader of the House of Representatives is set to return for the fifth time this year, and is contesting for the speakership position.
He through the support of Tinubu won the ticket the first time in 2003, and has been there ever since.

Hatred wants to kill you OSINBAJO is already in the Aso Rock .You not having hope does not replicates to others .you are the wailers by birth it is your responsibilities to do so .sorry for not having any chance of presenting presidential candidate .even if you were dashed !!! who will you give it to ?An ocean without fishes.

Adekola, kilode rora, abeg soft pedal just take it easy with the guy. It makes no sense to knock down a tribe that is already down. Jo let think of unification of one naija.

Oshigun:
Bro, what example can he produce? Do they even have a Fashola today talk less of oga Tinubu? Tout superiority all the time yet this cannot be proven with real examples and statistics. That is how Igbos roll. With lies and deception. Putting the lies aside, anyone objective would indeed rate the Yorubas highly for being the most accomplished ethnic group in Nigeria yet they remain humble and modest with that factually indisputable reality. The thread below destroyed Igbos permanently because even the laziest Yoruba saw the strength of their kinsmen that talkative Igbos had tried to drown with lies. Every frigging sector Yorubas get on lockdown in Nigeria.

See, most Yorubas do not even have time to beef Igbos because of our easy-going and accommodating nature . Hence the reason Igbos, who will forever hate us because of their civil war loss, have convinced the world , with lies, they are ahead of the Yorubas. Now and then some Yorubas will have their time and put them in their place as happened below and as I do regularly.

Over 300 pages. Igbos create a similar thread to counter that below and it was struggling to even get above 150 pages because the achievement simply did not exist to keep the thread going as was the case for the Yoruba thread. This was with them even listing the same examples several times. I think Igbos just need to shut up, breathe, enjoy being alive and start respecting others instead of waking up daily obsessed with how they can claim superiority over others simply to satisfy their feelings of insecurities and neurosis.

God will us oh. To me i don't see the reason for the competition of superioty in the first place. I think one of the problem they are facing is lacking what others possess, like amazing culture. Let look forward at how we can build one Nigeria. U can reach through this medium truetalk087@gmail.com

Donelli:
Congrats.. but this is a whole lot of words with weak points made. If you must engage me then present aggregate case studies not random instances of individual creativity (which, by the way, I don't downplay).

Case in point:
The richest man in Africa is from the core north, together with some notably wealthy individuals does that make them all well to do economically?

If I take WAEC and score the highest grades but happen to be the only person that passed in my village, will it sound reasonable to cite that as an instance to argue that students in my village are all bright?

Oga, every region have their strong points and weak points but the difference between your people and my people is that we make effective and efficient use of our gifts while you guys just feel you must prove a point.

Again I say, next time you think you must mention me on this matter you should present aggregate data and not one in a million random occurrence.

Oga he has cite his own example biko start with yours, from Politics, Technology, Literature, Music, Academic and many others. Then that is when all this your long essay will make sense.

prince3009:
I heard that some yorubas are actually praying for Buhari to die in office so commissioner osibande will become president and I took it with a pinch of salt but with this comment of yours, it is definitely true!

So you are praying for buhari to die in office in a year or two?

I am sorry to disappoint you but I wish to remind you that you are dealing with Fulanis who are 10 steps ahead of yorubas when it comes to politics!

PYO will never be president of Nigeria neither will Tinubu or Fashola!

The fulanis have grabbed power and will make sure they hold it square and fair!!

Whoever saw that "vision" you talked about was high on Erujeje mixed with sapele weed when he/she saw what they saw!

Thank you!
