Forkthiefnubu:
How old and how aware were u during his regime ? Obj hates igbos we all know and no distortion of history can change that

Obasanjo brought Okonjo Iweala, remember?

ednut1:
I’m Yoruba but what is the benefit of all those positions to our tribe This thing is just like supporting a football club you gain nothing tangible while the players get paid millions. 🥱

The last yoruba IGP Tafa balogun stole, the current one is stealing by awarding contracts to his side chick. What has the average yoruba benefited ?
https://parallelfactsnews.com/friend-of-igp-egbetokun-secure-500m-contract/

Then why is everyone making a fuss about the current appointments

The truth is that it's a big deal.

Also, Tafa Balogun was not the last Yoruba IG. Sunday Ehindero was. Come on!

Forkthiefnubu:
Lies , OBJ was anti Igbo too only not as much as tinubu , tinubu have taken his to a criminal and treasonous level , arms struggle by the igbos is highly justified ,infact the tribe is threatened with genocide by Nigeria

How was OBJ anti Igbo

Kids who commit crimes don't go scot-free anywhere in the world

They committed arson in the name of protest

Difrent:
Simple
There has not been a YORUBA president since 2007

Thank you

So why crucify Tinubu for doing the needful?

Chinjo2:
Where was Tafa Balogun from?
Is he a Fulani man?

I said since 2007 when Obasanjo left

davidif:
When did protests become a crime worthy of death in this country?

They were looting and destroying public infrastructure

Next time they won't destroy public infrastructure and loot in the name of protest

Fulani herdsmen would have been running rampage all over the country

True

We've been living a fake life all along

Salewa97:
Yorubas have been unfairly treated since 2007?

Hahahaha, una too like to dey over do things

How?

Eastlink:
GEJ was nationalistic in his appointment. He started nothing and should never be compared to tribalist Tinubu. See evidence here.

Nonsense thread with half-truths as if we don't know when GEJ was president

The only nationalistic president we've had is Obasanjo

Hotepking:
Stupid lies

GEJ gave several Yorubas key positions in his cabinet (I dare you to post the full list of major sectors under GEJ), Igbos were favored no doubt, but Yorubas were definitely not marginalized as falsely claimed. Here's a link showing all the full appointments per tribe under GEJ:

https://www.nairaland.com/7846374/unmasking-lies-igbos-dominated-ex-president

Buhari was very lopsided in his appointments and massively favored the North no doubt, but Yorubas were the second most favored during his tenure. Once again you can fact check me.

Tinubu is the worst so far, the idiot is taking nepotism to a whole new level.

You won't gaslight us with your innocuous attempts to distort facts!

Rubbish thread you are quoting!

The Chief of Staff appointment was 2 months to the end of GEJ's only term.

Akinwumi Adesina was the only prominent figure in GEJ's cabinet

Since 2007, no president has found Yoruba worthy of being COAS, IGP, CG Custom, CG Immigration, DG DSS, EFCC Chairman etc etc

I am not happy with Tinubu's lopsided appointments

But I believe he's up to something

Everybody needs to agree that Yorubas have been unfairly treated since 2007.

We supported GEJ, he shut us out.

We supported Buhari, he gave us crumbs.

Haba

IGBOPROMISE1:
It started in earnest in 2015, but took a worse turn ever since the so called 'southern president' took over in 2023!

GEJ started it

OALandAgents:
And least powerful of appointments too.
Yoruba got all the most powerful appointments like Comptroller of Customs, EFCC, Director General DSS, Comptroller General Immigration etc etc.

Why hasn't any president given Yorubas any of these appointments since 2007

Tinubu can do better

But he's definitely up to something

Everybody must agree that GEJ and Buhari marginalized Yorubas in time past.

GEJ was worse

How did they even get so many streets named after them in the first instance?

The former chairmen/counsellors need to be questioned

Stop converting to Naira - it's not the same

The figures are fair all the same

The names are just too many

How did they even get them in the first instance?

The former chairmen/counsellors needs to be questioned

Very dumb statement

The church is the reason we still have relative calm today

Objectivist04:
They have not because they know they can't. Even north after their brain was formated in Aba in 2000 and Onitsha In ,2006 are now loyal, they only kill Yorubas both in the north and there in SW.

If it were to be in those days when north believed they have monopoly of violence that unknown gunmen killed an Hausa woman and her children in Anambra, the response would have been something else but despite all Yoruba and Reno Omokri's incitive words, the northerners didn't want to take such risk.

It is now Yorubas they kill both home and away.

We are not killers

We only flog you when you want to interfere in our politics

Keep deluding yourself

GEJ started it

Buhari continued

Yorubas lost out in both administrations

Only Obasanjo was fair to all

Now Tinubu is giving Yorubas what no other tribe would

I feel somehow. But this should make us all have a review of how Yorubas have been treated in the past - unfairly

Odin13:
Yoruba people and their dream

To have Igbos

Zik of Africa was one in the north

Ojukwu was born in the north

My grandfather was one in the north

Yoruba really need to travel….

Wetin wan keep Igbos for Yoruba land. Aside taking all their salaries and Yoruba still owing them credit

Next is Lagos ocean


Yoruba just the expose their little minds and brain

These hardlytravell out from their enclave except to brag


Have you Been to sabo kano

Or maidugiri market

Walahi faa.. if Arewa dey brag like Yoruba people problem for don dey


Igbos wey dey Abuja .. numbers big pass all Igbos for Lagos and Ogun ..talk more of Arewa as a whole

This Yoruba people and their useless superiority complex wey dey make dem appear dull

You see why a Fulani herdsman like buhari is more intelligent than a. Yoruba sophisticated accountant from Chicago


Sorry oh

But honestly many Yoruba dull well well

And them dey show am .. display am anyhow

So ignorant and will open mouth waaa without sense tall

Shut up!

Buhari ran Nigeria aground by setting the country back by at least 16 years.

Where were you when Buhari instructed Emefiele to print (invoke) trillions of naira from thin air and start crediting the accounts of northerners in the name of grants and phantom agric programs

How many times have Yorubas killed Igbos in the SW like it happens frequently in the north?

Nonsense!!

Odin13:
I know Yoruba people in and out.. lived with them for long .. not in Lagos.. even before my under graduate days.. still went to ife .. and I know how deep they hate Igbos and jealous them..
you see me here.. ever since my first moniker 2009 .. I’ve always try to wake Igbos up to the reality .. that north are not their problem.. but they don’t understand.. because of Lagos .. and Islam in North..
I know Seun from ife .. at spider house oau. Before he graduated..

The problem to Igbo presidency aside kanu ipob are the Yoruba people .. they will rather support a Wanted notorious bandit than an Emeka Anyaoku for President.

Is a nightmare to them.. an Igbo President..

A northerner won’t mind that.. as long as the person is not leaning towards the eastern ipob ideology of separation.

Igbos are just waking .. after GEJ lost..


The next generation coming ba? Will be the very ones that will give the Yoruba what they have really cooked for other southerners.. its not just Igbos

Do you think the Yoruba people have regards for southern minorities?

Hahahahaha..

Those guys superiority complex no be here … reason today their contempt for Igbos .. so they see them as competitors… while Igbos has never given a hoot about them..

We know them since the days of print media .. and their younger ones has learn so well for their older brothers.

You might never understand this .. but just know that no matter how nice you’re to them.. deep dem no just like you.

That’s the reality and will never accept you as theirs


The north is so different… aside fanaticism.. religion.. they have no qualms about your tribe ..

Zik was born there .. same with Ojukwu.. they still many there .. being a Nigerian with many blood tribes helped me understand this country so well and the people in it ..


God bless nigeria

Just shut up abeg!

Why should we accept you as one of us?

Have we even finished accepting ourselves?

Be satisfied with your tribe jor.

Obasanjo as president was fair to all.

GEJ came and started marginalising Yorubas who fought for him to emerge president and even backed him for a fresh term in 2011.

Buhari came and gave Yorubas crumbs after we helped him emerge following 3 failed attempts.

Since 2007, no president has found Yoruba worthy of being COAS, IGP, CG Custom, Immigration, DG DSS etc etc Haba

Even the CDS we had under Buhari was a figurehead. Buratai was the main man.

Today the CDS is in charge.

Pigs have started commenting

Pathetic things

Congratulations to the Ag. COAS.

I don't have light yet o

kettykin:
Nigerian army is now a very sectional army .

Very local. Thank God there all alternatives incase of war or foreign invasion.

Precedence has shown that no other tribe will appoint a Yoruba man as COAS

Tochi3:


..parapoism..

Precedence has shown that no other tribe will appoint a Yoruba man as COAS.

Many people are not evening examining the figures carefully

How can 53billion be 204% of 31billion

Dullll*rrds everywhere

Nawa o

Shame on Russia

So they can't even expel Ukraine from the Kursk oblast without engaging North Korean troops
