Tinubu's Nigeria refused to vote.

A Yoruba once told me that Yorubas are monarchical in nature and in politics, and do not believe in true freedom.

That is why Godfatherism still thrives in the SW than anywhere else in the South. In the North, theocratic feudalism is already their second nature.

They only fight against Godfatherism if they are not at the helm of affairs.

AmericanQuarter:
This is Anambra fourth city, Ekwuluobia at 2am. I can boldly state that Anambra is the most developed Igbo state, if you doubt it, then show us the fourth city in your state.

Here’s the ranking of Igbo states in terms of development:

1. Anambra
2. Abia
3. Enugu
4. Imo
5. Ebonyi

Are you Chinonso Dike?.

Bishop Kukah, you lost my respect.

Please drop your cassock, wear Babariga and join politics..

KingOfAmebo:

Beg who? He should have touched them and let’s see how it will all end now. We don’t even need to send our Military to Burkina Faso. Na just some NURTW boys and few Civil defense go do the work.

Elenu plenty...

How many blocks of flat is James Omotosho own?

Imagine a DSS officer being sent to go buy Akpu in the market.

The US should also hold corrupt Judges by their scrotum.

It has been diagnosed that they one of the primary causes of Nigeria's problems.

A lawyer friend once told me that the only way to get favourable judgement fast in this country is to engage a lawyer who is married to a Judge.

The lawyer talks to the spouse about your case in the 'other room', then the Judge reaches out to his colleague in whose court you have a case to influence that matter.

Even if you are facing a murder charge, they'll set you free based 'on technicalities', if you have enough cash to splurge.

that's why it's good to passed through 4 walls of class rooms in tertiary schools. Awolowo laid the foundation, and the yoruba people are following that path.

Everyone in the South is following the path of education laid by the British.

This is why it is good to have a second address as a politician.
This is why it is good to be a professional in any field before going into politics.

After politics, the lawyer can go back to his chambers, the Professor can go back his classroom, the Medical Scientist can go back to his Lab Bench, the Physician can go back to his hospital, the Pharmacist can go back his Drugstore, the Architect can go back to his drawing board.

Don't be like Wike that cannot gain a piece to eat without politics money.

Nigerians stop voting for non-professionals and riff-raffs, who have never worked for one day outside politics. They have an entitlement mentality and promote do-or-die politics than anyone else. Wike is an example.

When you're being fooled, try not to fool yourself as well.

Very important my friend..

DomPerignon:
An entire village network headed by Nick operating from Anambra with 50 arrested and 32 deported back to Nigeria.

The syndicate launders their illicit funds through purchase of garments and footwear that are sent to Nigeria .

This is their success story and why none of them ever makes Forbes or outlive their illicit wealth.

Is your Tinubu no longer a 'Gbana lord'?

SlavaUkraini:
Nick is operating from the Aso Rock Villa

Nickinubu

Is the Kingpin Tinubu?

If Malami ever escapes this via technicality or by bribing Judges, then Nigeria has gone to the dogs.

That sleazy, corruption-loving AGF is guilty as charged..

He was doing crypto even after asking Buhari to ban crypto. I bet he funded those terrorists via crypto..

He must not go scotfree. If he does, then we should disband EFCC and ask every Judge and lawyer to go home and stop wasting their time.

Then, the jungle can take over the administration of justice.

Rubber-stamp Akpabio..

Careful4u:
Tinubu will handle the economy while Shetima will handle the security

Sounds phoney and funny as hell..

My Yoruba people. This renown cross-border smuggler na him be Una lord and saviour today?

Chei...


I need to send a friend who is a lecturer in Unilag, a possible project/Seminar topic for his students'

"Disssecting the Yoruba political landscape: Why criminals rein supreme in the Yoruba politicoshere"

It will make a good seminar or thesis project in the political science department of any SW university.

You have kpaied it already..

So us the hypocrisy..Your own faction of PDP is effectively dead..

1000 corrupt partisan judges like Injustice James Omotosho cannot save you this time..

kestolove95:
Wia is tinubu?

Who is Tinubu?

ECOWAS- very toothless organisation.

We know it was Gbadorians who propagated that rumour so that they can deceive Trump that 'terrorists are killing muslims'.

The powerful Americans have come to supervise their subjects (Nigerian politicians) to teach them how Governance is done.

Power pass power..

okeke6969:
My brother, olori omo Oba is just a dignified titles and it doesn't hold much water.
Wasiu is way far from becoming Oba in Ijebu Ode.
You will remember this my post by late January 2026.
For your information, I was born and raised in Ijebu Ode. I know wata guan👀👀

If your name is truly 'Okeke', you have no business discussing Yoruba kingship and traditional stool politics.

Please Stay off.

I bet you Reno has not slept in days.

His Blood pressure would have shot up several times in the past weeks.

You can see that the language I speak is a Nigerian cum African language. There are other ethnic groups that speak a related language to attest to this. Here in Rivers there are the Ekpeye people, the Ogba people and a few others.
But you came all the way from Israel to steal our language.
To prove to you, what you speak as central Igbo I don't need to go to school to learn it as an Ikwerre person. And when I speak some of your people say language is closely related to central Igbo. But all of you Igbos Need to be in class to learn your central Igbo. And none of your dialects is closely related to your central Igbo. Not Ngwa, Abiriba, Ohafia, mention them is closely related to it. Shame on you people who have no culture but still other people culture to later claim it came from you.
Many of you no longer do shoulder dance. You now do waist dance. In years to come you will claim other tribes copied waist dance from you whereas you copied from the Ikwerres.

All you have said is grossly unintelligible..no valid point .

A DNA test program has proven that Igbos are genetically unrelated to the Israel, they are native to where they occupy and are the oldest people God created in that entire present-day former Eastern Nigeria (SE and SS).. Their population attests to that fact..

Established facts

1.You are Ikwerres, born by Binis and by extension cousin to the Yoruba.

2.You are migrants to where you currently occupy. Your progenitor Iwhuruohna migrated from monarchical Bini during one of their numerous wars and settled among the republican Igbos less than 500 years ago. You became relinguinized and acculturated.

3. You met with the Igbos-a very Old tribe, intermarried with them and gave yourself a new identity borrowed from the Igbos.

4. Your names are Igboid, food Igboid, dressing- Igboid, dance step- Igboid, music- Igboid. Even the name you call yourself 'Ikwerre' is an Igbo name, it means 'To agree/I agree'. You agreed to all the conditions the Igbo natives gave you to settle there when your forebears ran away from the war in Bini, that's why you have that name.

Don't be confused..This is your TRUE history. The Identity crisis is evident to the blind..


However, there is hope. I will recommend a lasting solution that will help your coming generations evade the identity crisis your own generation is currently burdened with..

- Start a Back-to-Bini Religuinization project, adopt the Bini language in your schools, church, markets.

-Ban Igbo/Igboid Language (including the one you currently speak as Ikwerre) from schools, churches, public places and your household. Call it the 'Igbo Delinguinzation project'

- Change your names from 'Chindalu/Chinda' 'Emeka' 'Wogu/Nwogu' 'Wike/Nwike' 'Umuokoro/Rumuokoro', Umuoma/Rumuoma', to the Bini equivalent of whatever those names mean.

Stick with this policy for 100 years, and see your children's children grow without having to explain why you bear Emeka but you are 'not Igbo', when they meet people outside your enclaves..

Adopt my recommendations, and prevent your coming generation from having to always 'explain tire'. Identity crisis makes one sound like a court jester.

Till then, 'Ikwerre' remains a dangling branch of the mighty Igbo tree, and a branch cannot be stronger than the trunk and root of the tree.

If you conduct a referendum today I know that those from Awarra would vote to join Rivers State. So calm down. No true Igbo man would deny being igbo.
An Ikwerre man for instance has never for a day accepted to being Igbo. Other related tribes denying Igbo started recently. For an Ikwerre man it was before, during and after the war. There is no history anywhere of any igbo community connections with any Ikwerre community. None! No history of any igbo connection with the Ikwerres. As a matter of fact what Igbos speak today as general igbo was copied from Ikwerre land. Ajayi Crowder used Ikwerre language and a little of Owerri language to fame to the popular general Igbo.

You were speaking Bini according to your ancestors and historians like Wike..

You Ikwerres borrowed the Igbo language from the Igbos.

I can prove that Ikwerres are Yorubas because revisionism is in your DNA just like Gbadorians of the SW, who are adept at revising history as you have tried to do herein..

If Binis are Yorubas offsprings, and Ikwerres are descendants of Bini, it is therefore given that Ikwerres are fraternal progenies of the Yorubas.
Simple Logic..

So in actual fact you are speaking a borrowed language and bear borrowed names from Ndigbo..
