actually....millions of yorubas will vote obi nxt year. U knw this...many more millions of yorubas are offline than online. Who gave pdp over 300k votes in osun last 3 months? Igbos? Lol

no any right thinking Yoruba will ever vote for Ibo because another name for Ibo in Yoruba is a fraud ask any Yoruba to confirm

Lagos is well governed compare to kwara state.

it seems this man has no access to our resources again and the only way out for him is to start campaigning against this government so that people will vote him out for this man to regain access to our resources

Daviddson:
I wish Lagos to be delivered from the stranglehold of Tinubu like Oyo State was delivered from the strongman of Ibadan called Adedibu. Will it happen in 2019? I'm not very convinced because Jimi seem unprepared for the campaign. While Sanwoolu is criss-crossing the length and breadth of Lagos selling his candidacy, Jimi has yet to find his footing.

After the death of Adedibu

EFCC should spread their hands to those schools, corruption in those schools is getting out of hand

what a wicked world

mekaboy:
I am glad you stated that the work of the man is not showing. Both we from the south and you from his side, can't see it after 4 years.

This is a southern discussion.

i am from Ibadan so I am not from the North, Atiku will privatize Nigeria as a nation

Atiku is far away from alternative, Buhari and our son of the soil all the way. Jonathan destroyed Nigeria which doesn't allow the work of this man to show.
Atiku came to my hometown and promised to turn the place to Dubai in six months, what a scam my brother, all are saying Atiku is a scam here including the neighbouring states in the west.

It is just like this man is creating way for APC to have free run

gideon1971:
Penkelemesi is he a Chinese, pls can someone first throw more light on the meaning of the name

The nickname of his grand father, Adelabu said what a peculiar mess in the court of law and people turn it to penkelemesi and name it after him.
He was one of the strongest politician in the history of Ibadan

funshint:
If true #Omituntun should just go and sleep. I congratulate Seyi Makinde in advance as the next governor of Oyo state.

PDP is going nowhere in Oyo state

Boko Haram abductors of Leah Sharibu, have issued a threat that she would be killed by the second week of October, if government does not meet their demands, her mother, Rebecca Sharibu, reveals.

She made the revelation, yesterday, in Jos, Plateau State, at a meeting organised by Rev. Gideon Para-Mallam, founder of the Citizen Monitoring Group (CMG).

However, she did not mention the demands, saying the negotiation is between FG and Boko Haram, and that the sect notified her some days ago.

According to her:

“A threat has been sent out that with effect from October, Leah will be the next in line to be killed. They said she pleaded with Federal Government to do whatever is required to ensure her release before that time.”

Madam Sharibu, who frequently broke down, said it is her desire that her daughter be released on October 1. She thanked the entire world, most especially Nigerians, for standing by the family.

She also debunked rumour that her family took the FG to court, saying they were not aware of such issue.

She explained that she was not after money, and that her family was only interested in their daughter’s release.

Thank God Shittu was not cleared

Adelabu Penkelemesi emerged at APC primary today

kc2hansome:
Smart move

People were asking why PDP aspirants and stalwarts didn't throw their weight in during the Osun Election??
The answer is simple:
1. 90% of Agreements reached with an Afonja would be betrayed (take Omisore as case study)
2. Some states pay workers before the 30th day of the month while Osun state don't pay it's workers even after the 30th month (yet they want an outsider to help them rescue themselves)
3. This is a tribe that celebrates treachery and deceit as being smart.
4. They would always give a 49% vs 51% vote in every election.

What are you saying that make the whole place to smell, are you not IBO who is caged in the name of Biafra, break your chain before you lay claim to other tribe.

GworoChewinMaga:
Afonja's 1817 rebellion and subsequent Jihadist raids by Awusa/Fulani/Yoruba Muslims from Ilorin had done so much damage to the power and stability of the Odua people. Lagos was invaded by British forces in 1851 with little or no resistance and formally annexed in 1861. The British maintained Lagos as a strategic port city from where they traded with the hinterland natives, mostly in slaves in exchange for guns. The British will arm both the Jihadist and the Yoruba resistance up until they were asked to broker a truce between Ilorin and Ibadan. The outcome of this, was the establishment of a full-fledged Emirate which became an extension of the Sokoto Caliphate. Sokoto never forgot this good will and as such were open to talks and trade with the British invaders. Then the Kiriji wars began - an inter-cine civil war among the Yorubas in their shrinking empire. The 16 yr conflict began from 1877 up till 1893. The British continued to support each warring faction to both elongate the conflict to further weaken the remnant of what was once the great Oyo empire and also to benefit financially from the senseless conflict.

The Yorubas will then approach the same British to help end the conflict and come and rule them. It is from this point that the British got a solid footing into Nigeria and in just 8yrs (1901) later, the entire Nigerian territory was declared a colony of Britain.

By 1914, out of financial and administrative exigency, the amalgamation of both Northern and Southern protectorates was declared by Lugard.

The period 1914-1960 were the glory years for the Yorubas as they witnessed no wars and Yoruba unity began to emerge.

In 1960, with the British departing, the Yorubas almost immediately began their unnecessary squabbles. Riots and electoral violence were a hallmark of the old Western Region electoral process. It seemed the Yoruba were not capable of deciding their leaders through democratic and civil means.

The fallout of the political crisis in the old Western Region has been linked to the motivation of the misplaced Marxist coup which will later kick start the Nigerian Civil war.

The Military era between 1966 -1979, saw a cessation of Yoruba acrimony and senseless warring among themselves only for it to rear it's ugly head during the civilian era of Shehu Shagari. The pattern of peaceful co-existence within the Yoruba peoples continues with subsequent military dispensations up until the return to democratic rule in 1999 and from where the Yorubas began their incessant warring over the ballot-box.

It is thus safe to assume the following;

1. That for all the talk of civility and sophistication, the Yoruba is incapable of deciding in a civil and democratic manner whom to lead or represent them.

2. SW Nigeria has been the pioneering region of all democratic vices such as ballot snatching, thuggery, voter disenfranchisement, voter enticement and what not.

3. That the Yoruba requires a powerful third party to administer peace and Justice among them.

Is this then no wonder why the average Yoruba is afraid of an independent sovereign state knowing fully well that a Yoruba Nation will be an anarchist pipe-dream.

You must be insane for this fabricated lie.
historically, Ibos are the most divided tribe before the advent of colonial rule.

KINGOFTHEEAST:
The opus lying I'm currently in aba ariaria and this picture was taken sometime last years so daft afonja take your useless thread to dirty ibadam

You are mentally sick.
search the habitable place to live between Abia and Ibadan. Idiocy is a disease that cannot be healed easily

limeta:
Nah Edo is not in any Oduduwa what ever
Edo is a kingdom of his own
In Edo we would rather go with Biafra than that Islamic hungry Oduduwa back stabbing Yoruba Muslim people

Edo of all people- itsekiri and Akoko people in Edo are more closer to Yoruba than Benin.
Benin is Biafra and Biafra is Benin

Greatzeus:
Shut da f uck up,carry your wailing to Abia state government house,where your relatives are there with plates and spoon, almost starving to death,begging ikpeazu to pay them their 9 months salaries. Hypocrites,carry Osun matter for head.
So a man who had F9 in the only paper he sat for and missed the rest of the papers should be Governor? Not here bro,maybe in mudland,where people buy chieftaincy titles with drug money,biaaaatch

[quote author=dollytino4real post=71587765]thank goodness it can not happen in rivers, impossicant
what's special about rivers election where election is always written not mind people vote.

I wonder how Igbo people start calling southwest as a poverty ravaged place not knowing that southwest has the least poverty in Nigeria compare to their potopoto Nation.

When Abia workers are raining course on their governor and some Ipob are busy comment on Yoruba election
