Yeah ...small imo state has a gdp bigger than ogun ....or almost equal to the whole of north east ....there are things u dont get

You can only Compare your Region to only Oyo State in South West but still yet Oyo still manage to be more Developed than your entire Region Oyo GDP is higher than your entire region, despite the fact that you are so small and have less Job to do and considering the fact that you guys still migrate in drove

You dont yet understand Yoruba.

There is a key in the human spirit, we use it to unlock self-improvement. By nature the environment makes us indolent and spoils us, makes us comfortable to remain attached to the material world...a beastly state of existence! Yorubas are never accepting this attachment and so we keep probing until we find the key to unlock self-improvement and reveal the inner divinity. Its very important for you to understand that this key opens the conscience to know, innately, the separation between human and beast. Yoruba continues to evolve along the continuum of human civilization. Those who hate Yoruba are on the opposite side of this awareness, they remain attached to the low, beast nature. They are content with the crude acts and unrefined nature, self-reflection means nothing.

Yoruba will think ahead and test the outcome in his mind before carrying out his thoughts. ....but thats Yoruba, a civilized and divine being. The opposite is where you will find others.

You are perfectly right!

Lol thats why u wont understand how igbos succeed

We are buyers and sellers .....we look for people who are not really exposed (yeah ). Sale to them what we bought cheaper at a higher price make gain

Spend some of the gain on their land and send the rest home ....now thats why we travel

Not really cos the place us better than home ....that's y we travel home every year as a reward

Yeah lecture me like I am not expose, lecture me like i haven't been to the East before lecture me like I don't know about Economic. Just fvck off . If you are looking for people that are not still expose then you should stay in the East, is that while you also go to Lagos because Lagos people are not Expose? You have to leave in other to survive or else you would be eating yourselves, your Region so small but still backward don't ever compare yourself with South West in anything it is an Insult . You can only be compare with Oyo state in South West because you are of the same size but still yet you take 4 time more budget than Oyo

thatareaguy:
Lol... what are u saying? Kaduna et al planned to deal with Ironsi. That didn't happen. So how can u say the coup was successful. The plan was to make Awolowo the leader. They didn't plan to take over anything.

You can only deceive yourselves not others, keep lying to save face

When they label people coward Ibo should hush. The landscape is littered with stories of Ibo making so much mouth when his opponent is far away....but soon as he smells the approaching enemy okafor don gass, cross border dressed as harlot.

One of their leaders in Onitsha during coup was in such a rush to escape when he heard Hausas are in Asaba that he abandoned the house and his two yr old behind, and fled in his disguise.

I dont know if you are aware but it would over an hour for a man in Asaba to get to Onitsha at that point of chaos in East....but this minister don gass, no even look back to grab hin pikin. . Talk about a coward race, Ibo carry the award.

The funniest thing is that they Keep accusing others of what they are guilty of, they started all the trouble then began to play Victims, they blame Everyone else except themselves as if they are all saints when it was even them that started Everything

Kdon2:
The people that champion that course had a vision that was truncated by vision less hausafulani.

And we were sold off to them by Azikiwe the biggest traitor in History!

Mandeyy:
First of all, go back to school. Your reasoning is poor. Besides, your grammatical blunders are unacceptable. I see you're a tou.t.

Typical Igbo loser lol, that wouldn't change the fact that you came from the Biggest loser, traitor and coward tribe in History

Mandeyy:
Mind you: Igbos are neither traitors nor cowards. Remember Oladipo Diya, a whole General who was crying and begging a junior officer. Hahahaha! He's your brother ooo! Remember also that a woman from Dahomey (now Benin Republic) beheaded a Yoruba king, while his warriors ran away. Remember that the Fulanis killed a Yoruba king of Kwara and took over Kwara. Almustapha's statement has also corroborated the fact that Yorubas are traitors.

What is this one saying?
A Shameless Igbo tribe that were Enslaved by Ijaw and Benin, sodomized and Massacred by Hausa/Fulani in the north when igbo decided to fight it only ended in Hausa/Fulani raping your women and killed 3 million OSU

You are still a shameless Liar trying hard to save Face like a typical Igbo it is in the gene of Traitors like Igbo tribe, Dahomey never beheaded a Yoruba King and Fulani never took over Kwara but Ilorin a single town and just an inch of Yoruba Lands which was part of a great battle and Yoruba still managed to defeated the Fulani during Jihad war. Tell me what your forefathers ever conquered? Coward!

My forefathers were conquerors while your forefathers hid inside the Jungle, dwelled on trees, shit on themselves and ate themselves because they were Cannibals, today a single Oyo state is bigger than Entire South East to prove the adventurous spirit of my forefathers, igbo is the biggest losers in History, shameless cowards and traitors tribe!

Mandeyy:
You started it. Respect yourself. Counter my statement if what i said is a lie. The destabilizer and destroyer of Southern unity are the Yorubas, especially Tinubu and his company. It started with Awolowo. He urged the FG to starve Eastern Region. Today, we're still waxing stronger. We dey kampe. I never wanted to talk about Awolowo, but you started it by insulting Zik. Posterity will judge who destroyed the unity of the South.

Who destroyed the Unity of the south in the beginning was a Shameless Igbo man Azikiwe, and igbo was the first tribe in Nigeria to formed alliance with the North which make you the biggest traitor in History and you are still a Shameless tribe for accusing Yoruba of what you started in Nigeria, Awolowo should have do us all a favour and wipe you all out you are just like a liability. May Azikiwe never know peace wherever he is

johnie:
Is Oyeyemi. the author of the article in the second link, a revisionist too?

I don't Fvcking care, the fact of the History was that Azikiwe joined the North and igbo was the first tribe to formed alliance with the north, and they are the Biggest traitor in History since they believe Yoruba was wrong for doing the same thing. They are the biggest Hyprocrites, traitors and losers in History, case Close!

https://nigeriaworld.com/columnist/oyeyemi/121602.html1

All these revisionist and bullshit wouldn't change the fact that Treacherous Azikiwe betrayed Awolowo to joined the North and Igbo is the tribe of Slaves, losers, Cowards and Traitors they are guilty of whatever they accused Yoruba of and they are the biggest Hyprocrites in History, shameless tribe. May Azikiwe never know peace wherever he is

Mandeyy:
On the contrary, it was Awolowo that went behind to form an alliance with the North, and when Zik discovered that Awolowo was not serious with the coalition they agreed to form, he went straight to Tafawa Balewa. All in all, Awolowo was a traitor. It's in Yoruba's gene. Remember Al-Mustapha's revelation that it was Yoruba's leaders that sold out Abiola. He said that he had a documentary evidence to prove it. He said that they would come to Abacha and urge him to deal with Abiola, and when they approached Abiola, they would tell him not to live the prison without his mandate that Abacha was wicked. So, Yorubas are traitors. That the South is not united today was caused by Yorubas (Tinubu and co).

Igbos formed a healthy alliance with the North unlike the stupid and unreasonable alliance Yorubas formed with the North today.

The build-up to the first coup in Nigeria was caused by Awolowo and Akintola who were at each other's jugular for the leadership of the West in 1964.

You are just a shameless Igbo lying to save face like a typical Igbo traitor and Coward, it is in Igbo gene.

You still keep blaming others when you really started every thing that is wrong with Nigeria

Awolowo should have wipe you off the face of Earth, you are like a Curse and Liability on Nigeria. You are still a shameless Liar !

The first betrayal in Nigeria Igbo Started it
The first Coup in Nigeria Igbo carried it out
The Regional Government in Nigeria was terminated by the same Igbo
The secession Clause in Nigeria constitutions was prevented by Igbo

Was all these really Coincidences?

Awolowo should have do us all a favour in Africa and wipe off your tribe of Traitors, cowards and losers, despite the fact that you are the key tribe in Nigeria's problems you still have the gut to blame others except yourselves like you are all saints. Igbo the tribe of Traitors,losers, Slaves and Cowards it is not today you began ass licking the North

Mandeyy:
Awolowo was the traitor, not Zik. He saw that Zik was about to win the Premiership of Western Region and he incited the Yorubas against Zik? If you were Zik, would you work with such a person or his tribe again? Tell me the truth.

Moreover, he did the same thing when Kenneth Dike was chosen on merit to become VC of UI. He said that Onabamiro should have been made the VC.

Truth be told, in our South, tribal politics and wickedness began with Awolowo.

You are still lying when deep down you Know the truth, may thunder Fire Zik where he is and he will never know peace

At least a woman can be Regent in Yorubaland, a woman can't be Chief in Igbo land how much more regent.

woman can be Chief in Yoruba Lands in fact the king's chiefs can not be completed in Yoruba Land without woman and the 21st Ooni of Ile Ife was a Woman, a woman can also inherit her husband's properties and family properties in Yoruba Land

Wow! Please do tell us more about such a remarkable woman and the circumstances she faced in ascending the throne.

https://www.google.com/amp/s/www.pulse.ng/lifestyle/food-travel/do-you-know-about-queen-luwoo-the-first-and-only-female-ooni-of-ife/ym54l6t.amp

She was the reason why they never make a woman Ooni again in Ile ife though, They described her as cruel and highly uncontrollable

igbodefender:
Both Igbo and Yoruba have advanced a little in this regard.

For instance in Okpanam, Igbo Land, their monarch is Obi Martha Dunkwu, a woman.

Shikini:
Oga, I'm not from South East but I know the region very well.

Lol, stop fooling yourself about Oyo State being bigger than South East.

Oyo state is bigger than Entire South East and you can go check your Nigeria map, stop displaying your ignorance

searchlight:
you are a clown

You are the clown here I just tell the truth

searchlight:
misfortunes? I heard that they are better than your race

How are they better than anyone in this country when they are the slaves and the Economic Migrants of Nigeria? Oyo state alone is bigger than Entire South East but South East can not even surpass Oyo in term of Development, South West is not the mate of South East considering how small you are and you are still the Vagabond and Economic Migrants of Nigeria

searchlight:
do you mean Azikiwe did what Tinubu is doing now? if so may that same thunder never spare Tinubu

So you expect us to keep working together with you when you betrayed us first? You lot would blame Everyone in this country except yourselves, it is a sign that you are all sick in the head

searchlight:
can we now collectively get rid of igbos and allow them their Biafra so that Nigeria comprising of yorubas and hausas will thrive? unity begger

Who is begging for Unity? Your Generation are the real Unity beggars and they are also the real Nigeria's problem

Who stopped the secession Clause in Nigeria constitutions? Azikiwe as usual, but you lot will keep accusing others and blaming others except yourselves as if you are all saints, you started the problem and you should be able to solve it yourselves but you would rather be a bitch to other Nigerians

oforjide:
u re abnormal by abusing a dead man. Who are mine to abuse awolowo. The igbos are cultured.

The first Betrayal in Nigeria ..... Igbo

The First Coup in Nigeria ... Igbo was there

The culprit that stopped Regional Government... Igbo was there

The culprit that stopped the secession clause in Nigeria constitutions.... Igbo was there

But today you shameless losers blame Everyone except yourselves, Awolowo should have wipe all you out because you are a pain in the ass of Nigeria, you are like a Big liability and not useful. The fact that you will blame Everyone in Nigeria except yourselves make you all sick in the head

OyiboOyibo:

awolowo wasn't on same class with the great zik of africa. On that picture,did u see awolowo there and point of correction, awolowo didn't fight for freedom.

Thunder will fire Zik where ever he is, where ever Zik is he will never know peace

OyiboOyibo:
Pls extend the thunder to your family too....it's urgent

Thunder will fire anyone that accuse Yoruba of anything again when Igbo are the real culprits, everything that is ever wrong with Nigeria started from them but they keep on dragging Yoruba through the mud and keep on playing Victim Card.

The first betrayal in Nigeria
The first Coup
And the culprit that stopped regional Government but today they keep on blaming Yoruba and accusing everyone except themselves. Big Hyprocrites, cowards and shameless traitors

OyiboOyibo:
Zik was not a party to Awolowo going to jail and infact worked with the party of awolowo, a yoruba man by the name akintola worked with ahmadu bello to jail awolowo and the sentence was handed to awolowo by justice sowemimo

Azikiwe betrayed the South and Formed allegiance with the North and that's the only fact that I need. May thunder fire Azikiwe where ever he is

OyiboOyibo:
How Awolowo Was Jailed By Yorubas And Northerners

As a result of the 1959 parliamentary elections, the Northern Peoples Congress (NPC) from the Northern Region of N...igeria under the leadership of Sir Ahmadu Bello (the Sardauna of Sokoto and Premier of the Northern Region) became the country's leading political party with 134 seats out of the 312 seats in the Parliament. National Council of Nigeria and Cameroun (NCNC) based in the Eastern Region of Nigeria under the leadership of Dr. Nnamdi Azikiwe obtained 89 seats in the same election. Chief Obafemi Awolowo led Action Group (AG) in the West, elected 73 members to the parliament in 1959. The NPC and NCNC (Chief Nnamdi Azikwe's party) coalesced to form the first government of the newly independent Nigeria with Alhaji Abubakar Tafawa Balewa (the deputy leader of the NCP) as the Nigerian Prime Minister.
Soon after Nigeria got independence the Western region was in turmoil. Premier Ladoke Akintola and Chief Obafemi Awolowo (the federal parliament opposition leader) became embroiled in a protracted crisis. The leadership of the Action Group (AG), which formed the official opposition in the federal parliament, split in May 1962 as a result of the rift between the two party leaders.
The same month (May,1962). the Western House of Assembly was set to remove Chief Akintola after the party had earlier passed a vote of no confidence on the premier in a party meeting, crisis erupted on the floor of the house. The majority expelled Chief Akintola from the party. The then Governor of the Western Region, the Ooni of Ife, Sir Adesoji Aderemi demanded Chief Akintola’s resignation as Premier and named Alhaji Dauda Adegbenro as his successor. Crisis erupted in the Western Nigeria and this earned the region the appellation "Wild Wild West". Abubakar Tafawa Balewa led federal government intervened to curb the violence by imposing a state of emergency and appointed Dr Moses Majekodunmi (the Federal Minister of Health) as Administrator (interim premier of the Western region) on the 29th of June 1962. This became the first imposition of a state of emergency in Nigeria’s history due to heightened levels of violence. Following an alliance between Ladoke Akintola and Ahmadu Bello, Akintola was returned to power on the 31st of December 1962 in spite of protests by Dr Nnamidi Azikiwe who requested fresh elections rather than reinstating Chief Ladoke Akintola.
By 1963, the plot between Chief Ladoke Akintola, Alhaji Tafawa Balewa and Alhaji Ahmadu Bello was perfected and Chief Obafemi Awolowo was arrested for coup plotting/treason. His trial commenced in earnest and he was alongside some accomplices convicted for treason and jailed for 10 years. This again was the first alleged coup plotting and conviction in Nigerian history
Intent on totally decimating Chief Awolowo, Chief Ladoke Akintola together with his Deputy Premier Remi Fani Kayode "Fani-Power" (both of Nigerian National Democratic Party) went into a political alliance with Prime minister Tafawa Balewa's Northern People's Congress (NCP) and new political party known as the Nigerian National Alliance (NNA) was formed
Dr Nnamidi Azikiwe led NCNC teamed up with incarcerated Chief Obafemi Awolowo’s Action Group (AG), the Northern Progressive Front (NPF), the Kano People's Party (KPP), the Northern Elements Progressive Union (NEPU), the United Middle Belt Congress (UMBC) and the Zamfara Commoners Party (ZCP). To form the United Progressive Grand Alliance (UPGA)
In 1964, federal elections became due. Ethnic chauvinism, intimidation and violence was part of the frenzied campaigning. Chief Remi Fani Kayode and Chief Ladoke Akintola’s campaign was almost entirely based on tribalism. When the elections were finally held, the result was a victory for the Northern People's Congress (NPC), which won 162 of the 312 seats in the House of Representatives, whilst the NNA held a total of 198 seats. Indeed Deputy Premier Remi Fani Kayode had famously boasted that “there is nothing they can do, whether they vote us or not, we will win.” This statement turned out to be true as massive rigging was orchestrated in the elections. Once again this became the first pioneering act of election rigging by indigenous actors in Nigeria’s history. The announcement of the rigged election results quickly sparked off unprecedented acts of thuggery, violence, arson, mass murders and general acts of lawlessness in the Western region.
Following the crisis, Dr Nnamidi Azikiwe requested the military GOC to intervene and reorganise the elections in the Western region to avoid catastrophe, but the military high command refused and Dr Azikiwe was briefly held in house arrest for making such a request. Without any resolution and with Prime Minister Tafawa Balewa and Alhaji Ahmadu Bello as fellow conspirators with Chief Ladoke Akintola and Chief Remi Fani Kayode in the massive election heist, nothing was done to curtail the violence which gradually intensified. Daily mass murders and arson became routine in the Western region (wetie).
In the midst of the constitutional crisis the elections to the Western House of Assembly were conducted on 11 October 1965. The decline in constitutionalism and disorder accelerated with this election. Ironically no state of emergency was declared; instead the Federal government sent security forces to support the victory of Chief Ladoke Akintola and Chief Remi Fani Kayode's NNDP. The violence and lawlessness in the Western region was to continue from 1964 until 1966. It was under these conditions that a section of the military finally struck and overthrew the government on 15 January 1966.
As a result of the 15 January (1966) military coup, which again was Nigeria's first military coup, key government officials and senior military figures including Alhaji Ahmadu Bello (the Premier of the Northern Region), Sir Tafawa Balewa (the Prime Minister), Chief Okotie-Eboh (the Minister of Finance), General Maimalari (the Chief of Army Staff), Brigadier Ademulegun(Commander of the Northern Garrison) Chief Ladoke Akintola (Premier of Western Region) and so many others were killed

Azikiwe betrayed Awolowo instead of standing with the person that they both fought for the independence he chose to be a slave to the North, that's the real fact and no Excuse and justification. May thunder fire Azikiwe where ever he is

Igbo is the first tribe to be a traitor

Igbo is the first tribe to be a Coward

Igbo is the first tribe to be Slave to the North

Igbo is the tribe that is accusing others of what they started first in Nigeria, shameless igbo tribe

OyiboOyibo:
Yorubas are treacherous. I have lived and dealt with them all my life. They will betray you at the slightest opportunity. More so, they are cowardly. Trust Yorubas at your peril.

You are describing Igbo the real tribe of Traitors, Cowards and treachery. Azikiwe betrayed Awolowo to form allegiance with the North despite the fact that they both fought for independence, is that not treacherous, cowardly and betrayal to you ? And you are the first tribe to carried it out in Nigeria. Shameless Igbo tribe always playing the Victim Card when they are the really trouble makers

Ugosample:
@angelicbeing look at one of them

May thunder fire Azikiwe wherever he is he betrayed the South and sold us off to the North and you know it but you losers keep on blaming Yoruba for your woes.

9gerian:
Well there’s a storyline that stated that Amadu Bello had insisted that should the west and East join forces politically during the first republic, the North would be forced to pull out of the union called Nigeria.

Zik appeared to have been sympathetic to the North’s concern for being left behind in the scheme of things.

There were mistakes from all sides, even today...

No Excuse Azikiwe was a Big loser and Traitor may thunder fire him wherever he is

Azikiwe was the reason no Yoruba would ever trust Igbo again, but the funniest thing is that Igbo are the one playing Victim today.

They betrayed Yoruba from the Beginning and sold off the South to the North but today they are the one playing the Victim Card when they are really the Genesis of everything that is wrong with Nigeria. Igbo is a tribe of Traitors but they will tell you today that Yoruba is the problem
