Most Yorubas want restructuring.. that's the only way for the country to move forward.
The two tribes who don't want restructuring are the Igbos and Fulanis.. that's why they ganged up in NDC to make sure restructuring doesn't happen. You can even see one of them saying he is against State Policing, but they can sign unconstitutional Sharia law and Hisbah Police into law in their own States.

Yorubas and all the progressive tribes in South South & Middle Belt better wise up.. any silly mistake in 2027 may signal the beginning of the end for Nigeria.

MR PRESIDENT I NEVER EXPECTED THIS FROM YOU

In such a critical and sensitive time when citizens are accusing you of Yorubanizing your government: and a period when Warri port, Calabar port, Rivers port are calling for attention : you went to Paris with full confidence to supervise and approved Development of the Gateway Deep Seaport (located at Ogun Waterside) and the Ogun State Blue Marine Special Economic Zone (a planned 10,000-hectare industrial and logistics hub).Investment Value: Initial investment projected at over $7 billion.

You supervised the signing ceremony and assured both domestic and foreign investors that the Federal Government would provide regulatory clarity, policy stability, and necessary infrastructure support the project.

What do you want people like us to say? We may not be able to protest over such tribalistic policies that only favour the western region.

However , the question is who is now going to pay pay that $7 billion and who is going to provide the necessary infrastructure you promised……. Of course the South-South, the South-East and the Northern regions.

The defense that will spring up from those in the Western region will be “ it is a state project “
but you were the one that supervised, approved and signed the project …… no one can exonerate your full involvement.

This act alone has shown that you are not a president for all Nigerians because what is good for the geese is also good for the genders.

Lagos sea port awarded, Ogun sea port awarded and the sea ports in the South-South and South-East are all lying dead.

I hope the senate president and the FCT Minister and the Aviation minister are all watching how APC is dealing with those of us from the South-South and South-East over sea ports issues.

Come 2027, you want us to vote for APC; because you are taking us for being daft . RIGHT? We shall see.

There is nothing stopping the seaports in South South from working.. unless you want the FG to impose restrictions on use of Lagos ports which will not happen.
The seaport in Ogun has no negative impact on the economy of South South (minus South East that is landlocked).

In terms of infrastructure, it's the more the merrier.. just like the Coastal Super highway is expected to open up investments across the South West and South South regions, so will the Ogun deep seaport open up investments for all regions in Nigeria up till neighboring West African countries.

If you had no problem with Buhari and his Cabal of Northerners building world class railway from Kano to Niger Republic with Nigeria's FG money, despite the South East not having functional raiilway system, not even a monorail, then you're nothing but a hater and an enemy of progress.

Goodluck Jonathan with support of his Igbo backbone should have revived all the seaports in the the South South instead of building almajiri schools that noone uses today all over the North and embezzling oil wealth through Diezani. Allow the President to breathe, sit down and watch how prosperity is being built from the scratch.

Kudos to PBAT for his giant stride in the area of infrastructure development.. I wish he can raise industrialists from the South West just like past Presidents and Vice-Presidents from North did, we need Yorubas to own refineries, cement factories, food and beverage production companies, etc.

Don't put our fate in the hands of Northerners alone, let Yorubas too have industries to their name, Give Yoruba investors all the support, waivers and incentives just the way Northerners are pushing to Dangote and likes. The incentives are there for Nigerians, not for Dangote and Northerners alone.

They know he is a bad choice, but the deep hatred they harbor for Yorubas is the reason they are supporting him.
It's only Yorubas that have experienced their clannish behavior that'll relate.

Truth of the matter is.. some married women can, but some can't. The ones that can't are probably looking to have fun around while still married, so they mask their unfaithfulness with "besties" or "platonic friends" of opposite sex.

For the married ones that can, let's just say out of maybe 5 platonic friends of opposite sex, there'll be that 1 or maybe 2 guys she finds attractive and emotionally drawn to. So if the opportunity presents itself, she might fall in love and do the do with the male friend.
Bottom line is, being married doesn't automatically make you a superhuman that won't develop feelings for people other than your spouse. It's how you're able to manage the situation that matters.

@OP When you noticed your first wife couldn't get pregnant, you should have done a fertility test to know who the fault was from. You might have low sperm count or low sperm motility that'll maybe require treatment, but you assumed that the virgin wife you married was the barren one.
Back to the real issue on ground, I suggest you do a DNA test to ascertain the parernity of the child you're raising. The new wife you married is not being entirely honest with you and it's very possible she has other guys she is sleeping with. Just brace up yourself incase you find out that neither you nor the "rapist" is the child's biological father.

Some Yorubas can be easily swayed to cast their votes for their enemy.. imagine Yorubas voting for a well known Yoruba hater in 2023 simply because their pastors hoodwinked them into thinking the election was war between Christians and Muslims in Nigeria.

The President and those advising him should take this coming election serious if not he might not win.. I expect them to carry out a massive sensitization of the people, start showcasing all the achievements of the present administration, the ongoing projects, the completed projects, the planned projects, security reforms etc., so people can know what they stand to lose or gain if they don't re-electe the current President.

Paying scammers and support groups won't do APC any good. City boy or whatever can't do anything to sway votes.

Laide Olabanji did peter obi give better governance to people of anambra state or increasing poverty rates as governor of small anambra state is part of good governernce in your dictionary?

Don't mind the ldiot.. If Obi was that good, why didn't he transform his home State Anambra to become Dubai of Africa.
People without intellectual capacity thinking governance is by social media noise and empty talks.

Seyi Makinde is more competent than all South East Governors dead or alive put together. Oyo State is equivalent to 3 States in South East combined, yet the State is fairing well with meagre resources it gets as allocation.

He should have given his people better life and better State so they won't all be trooping into South West in search of greener pastures.
If not for Yorubas, can those people survive?.. the so called Yoruba actor must be very dumb for him to spew such nonsense.

Atiku has no credibility to ask PBAT to leave the stage.. majority of the problems facing Nigeria today can be traced right back to Atiku but here he is today talking like a saint.

What happened to the billions of dollars meant for power sector reforms?. Had it been our power sector got fixed with the money, most entrepreneurs will be doing well today and businesses will flourish. Poverty in Nigeria wouldn't be this bad, yet the same individual that ruined everything is asking the man trying to fix things to leave the stage. What an irony.

When are we going to see a Femi or Seyi become one day Governor of Abia or Anambra State?..
One Nigeria is only applicable in the South West while the others lock their regions with giant padlocks.

Yorubas wise up.. especially those ones forming woke in Lagos.

If Anambra State Govt. can come out to debunk false claims made by the Agulu packaged fraud, who are you people to claim or say otherwise?.
A man that has nothing to give can't give you anything.

Interesting times ahead.. 2027 Presidential election will decide whether South and North can continue to live in harmony. Recall that recently, some prominent UK leaders agreed to split, so they can decide what's best for their people.

If North decides to break the trust South put in them by voting only Atiku, then a lot of things will change.
I agree with Shehu Sani.. it's turn of the South till 2031. All Northern candidates can wait till 2031.

Indoctrination is different from "holiness".. you can be an ardent follower of Kumuyi's doctrine and still not be holy.

What you folks must understand is that following everything a pastor says won't guarantee salvation. As far as you do what is right according to your conscience, you're on path to redemption.

We have seen pastors engage in occultism, adultery, murder, robbery, kidnapping, etc.. As the scriptures rightly said, 'God is not mocked, whatever a man soweth is what he shall reap'.

Give it to Dickson, the man is more sensible than likes of Abure and other nincompoops in Labour Party that allowed Aisha Yesufu and co. mismanage campaign funds.
Na person like Dickson fit the hea.dless mob.. someone needs to clip their wings.

South West is paying a heavy price trying to keep Nigeria together.. no scholarships, no derivation funds, no help whatsoever to support education and economic.growth of Yorubaland, but all manner of individuals.flock into the region, all manner of killer foods and fake products have flooded Yoruba markets.
where exactly are we heading to?

It seems Kwankwaso is the main candidate in NDC . the other fellow is simply an errand boy to the Fulani oligarchs desperate to seize power.

The Minister should shut his mouth.. what is the minimum wage in those countries he mentioned? Useless politicians who have nothing upstairs.
In a country where some States still pay workers 18k salary per month and I litre of PMS is being sold around 1450 naira, how will people survive? Up till date, they have still not implemented the 70k minimum wage across board yet the id.iots want to sell fake enjoyment to us. Isn't that wickedness?

They will avoid this thread because it's not about Lagos or South West.. they don't care about the rot in their home region, but watch how the become opinionated when it involves other regions.

Just expect the unemployment rate to skyrocket going forward.. those who went to China to bring in China made products that killed off Nigerian made products are now crying because Chinese people have entered Nigeria to do legitimate business in the retail sector. No more middleman, no more overpriced goods and no more fake products.

You people will have to move your middleman nonsense out of South West.. you can't hold monopoly of market in Yorubaland.
If the goods you go to China to buy at #50 only to come and sell at #500 can be sold at #60 - #70 by the Chinese, then they are welcome to open their stores in our markets.
We want to get value for our money, you lots have destroyed the economy of Nigeria, so what noise are you making?.

FSBoperator:
If this was Onitsha market, I am sure they would have set the Chinese businesses up by placing human bones and skulls on their premises and then start claiming the Chinese were into human organ harvesting.

Will they even allow them open their business?.. the answer is NO.
Everyone knows the fact that they are very hostile to people from other parts of the country talk more of foreigners.

The foreigners are very smart.. most of them chose Lagos, Ogun, Kano to site their businesses because they have done their homework to know the areas suitable for investors in Nigeria. Those Lebanese are much in Kano, I doubt if you'd see any single one in the South East.
It's why we are calling the hypocrite Obi out.. he should face his South East region and push for an end to forceful lockdowns, sit at home etc. before coming out to chook mouth in affairs of other regions doing better than his home region.

FSBoperator:
And they always prioritise their own over any other tribe

If there is no Ibo businessman near them , they don't mind going across the state to patronise their own.

That's how one of them thinking I am Ibo told me why I was patronising a non Ibo business that Ibos have shops in the market that sell same product I was looking to buy

Imagine.. yet Yorubas don't do that. It's the reason they are getting people to patronize their businesses.

I'm still saying it that if Yorubas decide to be half as tribalistic as Ibo people in every sphere of life, those guys will be the poorest in Nigeria. Yet they don't appreciate Yoruba benevolence.

Just imagine if every Yoruba goes around looking for Yoruba shops to buy things in Lagos, who will then patronize the Ibo traders?. Won't they eventually pack their things and leave?
Yorubas are the best abeg.. but our people too should wake up.

What the Ibos are doing is a model to promote Ibo. but you see Yorubas, it's to be antagonizing one another, pull him down syndrome that our people know. God will help Yoruba race to have sense.

FSBoperator:
That's how some of them were arrested years back for robbing a Chinese warehouse in China town Lagos.

When asked why , they said the Chinese business man was selling his shoe products far cheaper than them and so they decided to rob him of his stock so that they can remain in business.

It's their modus operandi.. it's what they did to Yoruba-owned stores in the area where I grew up till they were discovered. Funny thing is, they will never rob stores owned by their own people but will rob all the Yoruba stores leaving none behind.

The Chinese are here to stay, whoever isn't happy should leave Lagos.

The Chinese guys should beef up security in their stores because those miscreants will start breaking into their shops to steal their goods. Once they see competition, that's the next thing they do just to frustrate other reputable sellers out of business.

Why won't they have lowest unemployment rate when it's Lagos State they all face after graduation.
The era of Yorubas giving jobs to non-Yorubas is almost over. Let's see if they'll close down all the Institutions in their region when they no longer see opportunities in South West.

This writer is pathetic, what rubbish, is Igbo land that even in near state can't buy land, how many other tribes flourish in igboland the way the allow them in Lagos and other states.

Abi Lagos na Igbo state, you should have warn your brothers the consequences of what they are doing now, because by 2039 SW will support SS presidency with full chest.

It's getting clearer that nothing for them again.. gone are the days of Yoruba silence while they go about boasting over what they are not.

I still respect Ahmadu Bello for his bold steps that made it possible for Northerners to step up the ladder in terms of education and literacy. Now there are more Professors in the North West than South West, because our Yoruba people have failed to follow Awo's legacy.

Today, non-Yorubas are sitting on resources meant to better lives of Yoruba people right inside Yoruba territories, yet some nincompoops wonder why majority of us are agitated. It has even gotten bad to the extent that Ijaw minority clans (not even Ijaws, e.g. Sowore) are busy instigating Yoruba sons and daughters agaisnt one another for clandestine reasons.

You're still living in fo.ol's paradise.. if in 2026, you still think you dominate anything in Nigeria, you need to see a shrink.

Yorubas have reclaimed all the commerce in Lagos.. now our markets are open to global development partners to compete and sell quality products to Yoruba people who own South West. You can go to Aba or wherever to do as you like, na you sabi.

What we are earnestly waiting for now is full restructuring and devolution of powers to regions. Poverty is about to hit the greedy ones who have refused to go home and develop their ancestral lands.

I doubt if this Dangote man is educated.. there is absolutely no correlation between smuggling and increase in price of petrol. What he is doing is "predatory pricing" which is a serious economic crime.

Sounds to me like one trader that used influence of his ethnicity to buy off FG owned assets. I wonder why PBAT allowed the Emefiele saga to slide. This man defrauded the Federal Republic of Nigeria through shady FX deals at the CBN, yet the masses are busy celebrating him and the nonsense IPO he is selling.

This Nigeria is not a serious country atal.. from the so called manufacturers, to marketers consumers, regulators etc.. all birds of a feather.
