a more conciliatory comment ought to be something like this:

"wow. I thought these sayings were unique to my yorubas only. now I realise that we the yoruba's share lots of sayings with other tribes including the urhobos"

CultureRe: My Favorite Urhobo Proverbs! by erudean: 2:46pm On May 04, 2015
I'm surprised that someone said these proverbs are Yoruba proverbs. What u should know is that African tradition is almost the same especially in the area of proverbs, idioms and folktales. That is why most folktales have the character of tortoise in most of the traditions.
Meanwhile let me add one or two to spice up the thread:
1. This one good, this one good na him make craze pick house full.
2. No mata the speed of moto for tv , e nor go fit kill who they watch am.
3. Na hunger make native doctor eat winch food.
4. Na aproko monkey dey receive hunter bullet.
I get them plenty sha grin

I think GMB should not make the whole issue look like witch hunting. If he does, ppl may start sympathising with GEJ. With issues in the health sector, electricity, education and others begging for attention GMB should stop chasing shadows.

Gbawe:
They have done the right thing. Nigerians are becoming more politically sophisticated. It can no longer remain about supporting your "son" blindly even when it is obvious he was letting everyone down including his own direct community, state and region. Nigerians simply need to support a President who will do what is right and just, as much as possible, for all Nigerians.
Hmmm, time alone will tell.

If Jonathan had not accepted defeat, imagine what would have become of Nigeria. Despite the large numbers of underage voters no one rioted. Now see what APC is doing in just a state election. Buhari will never hand over to a Southern person over his dead body. Mark my word Tambuwal will be Naija next President.

Sincere9gerian:
Story. Where is true federalism in all of that long story? The problem with Nigeria is structural. Restructure the country such that states can harness whatever resources they have to develop their area and people. Most especially, the current regime of clean elections must be maintained and even improved upon. Otherwise, it is same of the same
Gbagam! You spoke my mind, to me all his talk is rhetorics
PoliticsRe: Obama Praises Nigeria’s President For Conceding Defeat by erudean: 5:01pm On Apr 01, 2015
Brimmie:
[b]Dear Nairalanders, we all need to understand the concept of Greatness and Heroism. I have been reading Revisionist pieces and White-Washing of Sepulchres on several Social Media Platforms with different people calling GEJ a Hero for conceding to Buhari.

So he is now a hero because he conceded? Did he have a choice?

GEJ has played Politics with the Lives of thousands of our Countrymen for too long. History will never be kind to him. Note that He wasn't magnanimous by accepting defeat, the circumstances and factors were all against him. He didn't concede, he was compelled to. He didn't give us democracy, we demanded it and we got it. He is not a hero by any standard.

We should separate sentiments from matters of National Interest, all those who made hate speeches should be prosecuted. All those who stole our collective wealth must be jailed and made to refund the money.

Sending congratulatory messages to Buhari should not confer automatic Immunity to these Wicked Criminals.

The true Heroes are those who stood up in the rain to vote and stayed to make sure their votes count. Not GEJ who allowed impuntiy unchecked, to whom "Stealing is not corruption".

GEJ's concession of defeat is commendable, but not admirable. He must answer for embezzled funds.[/b]

- Brimmie (2015)
What did you do to Babangida who squandered millions of oil windfall? What of uncle Shege(OBJ)? You're the type that will flog a corps. We don't need ur type at this moment of our celebration, let by-gone be by-gone. GEJ is our hero, let's wait for what GMB will do in the next 4yrs.

what i have learnt from this election so far,
learn to be patient like buhari , don't ever give up even when they say you cannot do it,
be calm and slow to anger like jega,, .
never disgrace yourself like orubebe in public,
always watch your words, they might come back to hunt you like they hunted patience Jonathan,
never disrespect ur elders like fayose , so that you may live long.
always try and see the future like obasanjo.
welcome baba.
Did you not watch the video where he cried and vowed never to run for the office of the presidency again? Stories for the baboons and the dogs who will soon bath in their own blood.
