I'm no longer OBIdient

Whether Muslim Muslim or Ifa-ifa ticket

I'm no longer concerned

Tinubu must win

Yorubas are the most marginalized tribe in Nigeria

This is an evidence
Wow!

SouthEastFacts:
I am still enjoying my Christmas, I don't have time for long article.

I stumbled upon the quoted this morning, so this short piece is an unedited response to that. When time permits, I shall run a full analysis.


The problem with some Yorubas is nothing but Shallowness. To them Nigeria started in 1999, fourth republic. But if you ask them where SW was before the fourth republic most of them will open their mouth staring at you.

Pre Republican era
First and only Governor General (Nnamdi Azikiwe)
First Speaker (Jaja Nwachukwu, Present day, Abia)
First President of the Senate (Nnamdi Azikiwe)

First Republic
First President (Nnamdi Azikiwe)
First President of the Senate (Nwafor Orizu)
First Acting President (Nwafor Orizu)
First Foreign Minister (Jaja Nwachukwu)
First GOC, NA (Aguiyi Ironsi)

Military Era
First Military Head of State (Aguiyi Ironsi)

Second Republic
First Vice President (Alex Ekwueme)
First Speaker (Ume Ezeoke)

Third Republic
We already know what happened here.

Abiola a wealthy Yoruba Muslim ran for President on the platform of SDP. He won a decisive victory to become the first and only Southerner to defeat a Northern overwhelming in the North.

Second republic Governors took office on January, 1993, while IBB postponed the Presidential election to June 12. Which he eventually won decisively.

According to New York Times (1993) "Many Yoruba have long resented the domination of Nigeria's political life by the mostly northern Hausa-Falani ethnic group, and were ecstatic when one of their own, Mr. Abiola, appeared to have won the recent balloting," but 11 days later, he annulled the election.

11 days again, on July 4, 1993, General Babangida took Chief Abiola and family into confidence. He told them point blank, 'they' (North) will kill you (MKO) rather than allow you to become the elected President,
Commander-in-Chief of Nigeria'.

In 1994, he declared himself President and was imprisoned for 4 years in solitary confinement.

On the day was due to be released, on the 7th July 1998, he died of natural cause after agreeing to renounce his mandate upon learning that the world has abandoned him, telling him they won't recognize a 5 year old election.

The government of Ernest Shonekan that took over from IBB was dismantled within 3 months by the same power that doesn't want Abiola as President. Failing to consolidate his power within 3 months, his government was dismantled with just 40 soldiers.

Announcing his Cabinet list, Shonekan became the First Civilian Head of State to alienate Ndi Igbo from government, giving Ndi Igbo 4 out of 31 Cabinet appointments.

Senate President (NC)
Fourth Republic (First 8 years)
First President (SW)
First Vice President (NE)
First Senate President (SE)
First Speaker (NW)

Note: In the 4th Republic, the SW was just compensated with the Presidency because of the 3rd republic debacle.

To achieve this, all parties were directed to field only SW, because in a liberalized election, Obasanjo the anointed can not win the election. So 4th Republic Presidency is NOT an achievement for the SW, because their own preferred candidate, Olu Falae was roundly defeated, and forced into political irrelevance. In essence, greater Nigeria imposed Obj on the SW.

They were allowed to that position not as a result of political clout or sophistication, but as result of benevolence of Nigerians. In 2003, Obj had to beg Atiku, his subordinate in a kneeling position to allow him complete his term.

www.dailypost.ng/2017/12/11/obasanjo-knelt-atiku-begging-second-term-idahosa/

Fourth Republic (Second administration)
President (NW)
Vice President (SS)
Senate President (MB)
Speaker (SW)
Deputy Speaker (SE)
Deputy SP (SE)

Note: SW was kicked out of the House after the first tenure. They were not allowed to complete their zoned 8 years. Tambuwal took from Bankole.

Fourth Republic (third Administration)
President (SS)
Vice President (NW)
Senate President (MB)
Speaker (NW)
Deputy Speaker (SE)
Deputy SP (SE)

Fourth Republic (fourth Administration)
President (NW)
VP (SW)
Senate President (MB)
Speaker (NE)
Deputy SP (SE)
Deputy Speaker (SW)

Note: VP is the only achievement of SW in the fourth Republic, a position they got by the benevolence and popularity of His Excellency, the President.

When they tested their political clout and sophistication at the national level outside the benevolence of Northern backed political clout, they were roundly defeated and political sophistication demystified during the tussle for the position of SP and Speaker.

The political sophistication of SE/SS got the SE the Deputy SP even though they don't truly deserve it. This means the North still prefer their age lond Political Cooperation with the East to their recent cooperation with the West, even though the East didn't help them achieve the Presidency.

Don't forget the 4th Republic is just 18 years. You don't expect all the 6 regions to produce President within that 18 years. 3 regions have done their part (SW ( SS (4) NW (6, remaining 2 years), 3 are yet to do theirs, hence power is going to NE unfailingly through Atiku. When time comes, nobody will stop Igbo Presidency. SS will as well complete the other 4 years when time comes.

When it comes to politics at National level, SW are just crawling. They can't beat SE political records or ever catch up with them.

The SW got the Presidency and Vice Presidency out of benevolence of people. The same way they love free owambe in real life. The only position they truly fought for President in 3rd Republic and Speaker in fourth Republic they were both disgraced out. While they were not even allowed to test the 3rd Republic Presidency, they were not allowed to complete their 8 years for speakership. Even the Military they got was out of necessity and Obj was pressured to return power to Civilian Government where a North-East cooperation got them the Vice President for a 2 terms.

Igbo language no sweet for music
No hit song and he wants to win award

Donmobi:
careful of the kind of news you spread mate

You didn't see your brother's names calling headies Yoruba award abi

Donmobi:
igbo dominated movies was even the first to enter Netflix, mate.
It's obvious you don't even know what you're talking about.

Oga stop living in denial

Which igbo gan,
Yoruba first
South south next before anything called Igbo

Stop mentioning me

fman:
Before nko

Tell me d hit song he released

You can list 20 Yoruba musician before any Igbo musician

Mastercraft has expressed displeasure about the head award, he said he was ignored for years

And hundreds of Igbos came on Twitter and Facebook to call headies award a Yoruba award
Meanwhile the likes of TG OMORI, Flavour, BNXN, A-Q etc are non-yoruba and all won award (Flavour, Patoranking, Kcee etc being igbos won award)

Even WAJE won an undeservable award knowing fully well that SIMI, TEMS or TIWA deserve the award

Donmobi:
you keep showing me nothing friend.
The movie industry has made a name far and wide, nothing you can say or do differs that fact.
Now, you've been celebrating about your movies on Netflix.
But still hasn't gotten an Oscar nomination, umm....
Let me help you.
https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_Nigerian_submissions_for_the_Academy_Award_for_Best_International_Feature_Film

Just as I told you before, it's a gradual process, give it time, classical movies started recently big thanks to the Yorubas

The question you should ask is that, over the years why has none of the substandard Nollywood movies won any international award or get recognized by Netflix

Donmobi:
lol.
Atleast your sense of humour is trying.
Don't know your Lateef, but as to epiccultural igbo movies using english as the main language to appeal to a large scale audience, even yoruba actors come to play roles in those films. I do know Odunlade, real talented lad.

Oga, Igbo movies use Igbo
African magic Igbo is there

NOLLYWOOD English is clearly different from Igbo movies

Clear difference

Donmobi:
volume kwa?
What's the difference with what you just wrote and LARGEST PRODUCING??
As to the first line, i did put "perhaps" some African countries might.
This isn't a big feat mate, this one you're celebrating it, igbo actors are known almost globally from our movies.

Is that a reasonable celebration

Large volume but not in top 10 best movie industry

Does that make any sense?
Woh, I'm out of this conversations

Only an Igbo will see verifiable facts and data and still argue

Donmobi:
aren't you the one that was mentioning igbo actors with ease, no one else has mentioned any of your tribesmen here

You want to deny mentioning Odunlade Adekola right

Yeye dey smell

I have goTV and I know there is African magic Igbo whenever I scroll but I don't know any Igbo actor

Give me any Igbo actor that can speak well like Lateef Adedimeji without their igbotic accent

Dem Peter Obi

Donmobi:
correct yourself.i said PRODUCING, it's like you don't know much about our movies then.
Because if you knew, you would know the 2nd largest film industry in the world.
Don't stress men, oyibos no sabi papa Ajasco, perhaps some African countries might.

Can you now see how you are getting yourself busted
1. You just agreed with me that Papa Ajasco and his group members are known in African countries (fantastic - always calm down to read)
2. Get your facts right, NOLLYWOOD has second largest movies production by volume - bunch of substandard movies - Thanks to Yorubas for bring NOLLYWOOD into international glaring
