Esales:Are you saying you do not know that the Igbos do not use the name Afonja to describe Yorubas in an honorary manner rather it is being used in an insulting manner because of his alliance with the Fulani. If you don't know then you should not even be here typing jargons cos you don't even have an understanding of what is being discussed here before jumping into it. |
hotwax:Christian course indeed! Who is he for him to be fighting Christian course ![]() You people will still not desist from this your divisive religious and political shenanigan. |
jice:You are very wrong! Yorubas are not slaves to anyone. I don't think there is any part of the country that is a slave to another, in the manner of which I understand slavery. I am from Ondo state and here we have many Benue and Akwa Ibom people working on our cocoa farms (my mum told me even igbos too in the past), I grew up with them working for my grandmother, yet we do not call them or see them as slaves cos they are working to make a living, some of them are now well to do with their own farms, no one calls them or treats them as slaves. But most igbos (not all) have been fed with this Yorubas are slaves narrative and if you ask them how are they slaves, they have nothing meaningful to say, except of course you will be an exception by explaining to me what you meant by that. What is playing out here is the illusion of knowledge which is worse than ignorance. You think you know but you don't. Yorubas understands the political terrain of Nigeria, we know that negotiation and alliance with a regional block is what guarantees political relevance in the country. Since, politics is a game of numbers, which region do you think we will be more gravitated towards, the south east with the meagre numbers that will come out from there and whose people are never united in their political pursuit or a people who are more or less united when they want to pursue a course and who have the needed numbers? I think it is this obvious political romance with the north that you term as slavery. I think rather than being bitter, the Igbos too should adopt that formular, it is common sense. The political structure of the country is skewed in favour of the north and against the south. It is rather foolish to tag those who are trying to play the game to their favour as being slaves. You can't push any political agenda or objective with just your region alone. This in itself is a strength that you guys will rather take as weakness. If you mean Yorubas are a slave in that manner, then we are unapologetically. At least since this democratic dispensation it has not failed to produce the intended results. But if you mean slaves in the sense that they are the Lords and we are their servant, then you don't know anything about what you are saying. I don't like to generalize but I think this bitterness that igbos have against everybody is not going to advance any of their course. Even the Niger Deltans now want to dissociate themselves from the Igbos. It is dangerous if this continues, because bitterness only begets bitterness and hate only begets hate. It won't be okay for our generation to go down that path. |
Esales:That's a big lie. You must have seen igbos call themselves Yanmiri or other such derogatory slurs too, right? Or you must have seen igbos refer to the south east zone while having a discussion with a fellow igbos as "Potopoto republic" I think everyone can see you are telling us the truth... Weldone! |
franchasofficia:I want to believe you still did not get my point or you intentionally don't want to see that marrying an Igbo is not frowned at and does not make any product of such union an Omo Ale. If ooni marries an Igbo wife, it doesn't make the product of such a marriage an Omo Ale. A person whose father and mother are both Yorubas can still be called an Omo Ale, if he behaves in a manner that is less than that expected of an Omoluabi. You don't become an Omo Ale just because your mother is Igbo. It is your behavior and disposition that will place you where you belong. Just in the case of the person in question, his behavior is not in tandem with what is expected of a Yoruba, insulting your people with despicable words igbos use to insult them shows where your heart belongs, it's not about the name you bear. See what GRV intends to do with Lagos obas in the link below, Let's not be foolish. This guy might be Yoruba based on his father's lineage. There is nothing Yoruba in his conduct and utterances. That people followed Obi does not mean that all those hiding under this bandwagon movement have good intentions, GRV inclusive. Yorubas are known to be reasonable. E jé kí a pe àró àti òdòfin Inú wa, kí àwon tí n fi owó òsì júwe Ilé baba won má bà'lú jé fún wa...

franchasofficia:You guys like to sensationalise issues. No one is calling GRV omo ale because of his marriage to an Igbo woman or because his mother is Igbo. He is being called an Omo Ale because of his utterances and disposition towards Yorubas in the past which is evident in his posts before he vied for office, which he has not denied. Out of all the major tribes it is Yorubas that intermarry with the Igbos the most. The governor of my state married an Igbo, no one has ever called him an Omo Ale, the Deji of Akure has an Igbo wife. In Yoruba land, the word bastard is not reserved solely for illegitimate children born out of wedlock. It's also a word used to describe anyone who brings shame to his father or family, denigrates his people or behave in a manner that is short of how an Omoluabi should behave. No true Yoruba son or daughter will refer to another as Afonja, because it is a slur word used by igbos to insult the Yorubas. Except he denies those post of his in the past, he is nothing but an Omo Ale, Omo Ale t'oun fi owo osi juwe Ile baba re. Omo Ale jatijati! See what GRV intends to do with Lagos obas in the link below, Let's not be foolish. This guy might be Yoruba based on his father's lineage. There is nothing Yoruba in his conduct and utterances.

vonxe:But they said they got 2million votes in Lagos Illogical people |
Workch:And you think winning 19 states + FCT is enough for him to be declared winner?? Dey play |
elonmuskbaby:Yes nah. His disposition and position on matters in the past does not reflect his being Yoruba. It does not make sense to lead a people you so denigrate. Yorubas should be logical with this political wave so we don't make monumental mistakes. That's how a Tony Nwoye who his people rejected and is known as a dangerous person was mistakenly elected because they wanted to vote LP from top to bottom. Let's be wise, so we are not used as pawn in another person's game! He is much more disposed to issues that touches or concerns the Igbos and use derogatory statements whenever he is referring to the Yorubas, that's why some people are calling him Omo Ale... It is his behavior not the legitimacy of his birth but those igbos do not understand. That one bears a Yoruba name is not enough for one to be called Yoruba. There are some characters and attitude that is required of a Yoruba. In Yoruba land the word bastard isn't reserved for an illegitimate child alone. 1. A child who beats his father or mother is a BASTARD. 2. A child who brings disgrace to the family name can be called a bastard. 3. A child who disgraces his father or mother or his people or takes sides with a stranger against them is nothing but a BASTARD either he is legitimate or not.

AlexBells:A lot of Yorubas do intermarry with the Igbos. He is not being treated as if he has leprosy because of his Igbo blood but because of his disposition towards the Yoruba people, evident in his social media posts in the past. As a geologist there is a fundamental concept in geology. The present is a key to the past.... Same way the past can be used to unravel the present. Words like referring to An eminent Yoruba in the person of Baba Adeboye as Alatenuje (from inference.... "Typical Yoruba behaviour" , words like Afonja.... No true Yoruba son will call another "Afonja"It is igbos that use that slur word. So, if he is being treated as if he has leprosy, that's cos of what he sowed which he will fully harvest on Saturday, not cos of his Igbo blood. See what GRV intends to do with Lagos obas in the link below, Let's not be foolish. This guy might be Yoruba based on his father's lineage. There is nothing Yoruba in his conduct and utterances.

Adexgentle005:Igbo and anything fake, like 5&6. When you hear "Aba made", what comes to your mind? Just check the picture you will see that the source of the news is connected to Igbo... |
Yamiriflathead:They are not focusing on Rivers. Their focus is on Lagos, we all know why they want to claim Lagos at all cost. Igbos just like to attract unnecessary wahala... Instead of them to focus on how they can at least win all the gubernatorial seats available in the South East so they can plan and negotiate with another block to guarantee Igbo presidency (which is what Tinubu did over the years). They want to take Lagos... You will all fail woefully. Their governors rank amongst the worst in Nigeria but they will never criticize them, it is another man's land they are eyeing to take over... See what GRV intends to do with Lagos obas in the link below, Let's not be foolish. This guy might be Yoruba based on his father's lineage. There is nothing Yoruba in his conduct and utterances.

3rdactivee:You are indeed irredeemable! |
Lionize:He should just shut up, God obviously didn't speak to him. Most of these are permutations based on personal feelings and opinions. |
Emilokoiyawon:When someone says Aba made, what comes to mind.... FAKE. |
Levels2:No need, I don't need your trouble. I know the kind of person you are so no point arguing with your type. |
Levels2:If only you will be objective and go through the video but you aren't, you are the joker here, the joke is on you. If you go through my posts you would see that I do not belong where you think I do. However, I am always objective in my posts and opinion and would not support a farce even though we might be on the same side but this is not the way to go about things. Your post is farce and misleading, simple! Don't be too excited to share info and if by mistake you do not take enough time to go through to see that what you are sharing is misleading be objective enough to check again and not call people comedians. You said you were there just to give it some level of authentication but it is obvious that too is a lie. |
BluntCrazeMan:Verification for the collation officers and verification by the public, but failure to upload does not.stop the.collation process |
Levels2:I have the video too. That's not actual voting, it is a demonstration. If you look closely you will find SPECIMEN written on the ballot paper. Kindly take it down so as not to misinform or spread FAKE NEWS. That's not to say rigging did not happen in the South East, I am very certain it did. As long as no one can show evidence, it did not happen. |
AlexReports:This man's SAN should be withdrawn. If Abuja is a state as he has proven and you say 25% of 36 + 1(Abuja)... 25% of 37, Tinubu still won. The Constitution does not give any special status to any of the federating units (states). In other words no state is superior to another, irrespective of Size, size of it's economy or population. The Constitution sees Bayelsa the same way it sees Kano. Saying a candidate MUST win FCT is according it a superior status and I think the SAN should know this is not so. It's just pure emotional and tribal sentiments. |

AbdulMagaji:You still didn't get me. This isn't about common sense, common sense is vague, rules are specific, it is about INECs guidelines and rules vis a vis the request of Dino and other party agents which tallies with your opinion on what the INEC chairman should have done. You stated that he should have halted the process because results were not uploaded and I am telling you the guidelines and the rules does not say so. The uploaded results are not needed for collation. The uploaded results are needed for credibility and transparency, it is the hard copy results that is used for collation. If what was used for collation (the hard copy results) now differs from what was uploaded had it been it was uploaded real time, as long as the hard copy results used in collation was signed by the party agents and it has gone through the layers of collation before getting to Abuja at the national collation center, there is nothing the INEC chairman can do at that point as it is absolutely impractical or impossible to now start checking each polling unit one after the other since it is PU results that are uploaded. It is impossible to do so. The only way out is to challenge it at the tribunal with hard facts and evidences from the uploaded PU results, but it can't stop the INEC chairman from proceeding with his job. That is the position of the law and the guidelines of INEC. |
AbdulMagaji:You are very wrong sir. That's not the position of the INEC regulations. Maybe you should get a copy of it. It's good to drop one's opinion on issues but it's always good to ensure you are not misinforming or misleading people with whatever you post. The INEC chairman does not need the uploaded result of the PU for his job. The presidential election has 4 layers before it gets to the National collation centre Layer 1: Polling unit: Result is announced and pasted after the hard copy of the form EC8A which is the actual result that will be used for collation has been signed by all agents. The result is then uploaded on the IREV portal (for the purpose of transparency and not for the purpose of collation). It is at this layer that any unit where over-voting has been recorded or BVAS bypassed will be cancelled. Layer 2: The RA collation: The form EC8A is taken to the RA by the Presiding Officer at the PU, he/she may be followed by the security personnel and the agents. At the RA the results from the form EC8A is entered into another form unit by unit, there are party agents at the RA level and security personnel who will also sign. Layer 3: LG collation... The same process is repeated as in layer 2 Layer 4: State collation... The same process is repeated as in layer 3. Layer 5: National collation centre... Whatever has been collated at the previous layer is brought here for presentation. So, you see the INEC chairman can not put the collation process on hold just because the results were not uploaded. Uploaded result is not needed for collation. What is needed is the hard copy results which must have been signed by all agents at the PU which would have gone through several layers of further collation before it get to the INEC chairman. It is ignorance or rather the illusion of knowledge that made those that should know start demanding that he should halt the process because results were not uploaded. The uploading of results is for transparency not for collation. The INEC chairman deserves commendation not rebuke. The BVAS machine has to a large extent reduced electoral fraud. Even if the results collated do not tally with the results uploaded, the BVAS machine has given room for aggrieved parties to gather such evidence to prosecute their case at the court. This election is not as bad as it is being made to appear. |
Frank688915:You can do better than this. Stop promoting hate, you stand to gain nothing doing this. |
Fut9ure:Stop posting this rubbish of a post as a comment on all posts on NL. Why do you people like propaganda so much, to what end but mischief? That was how Charly Boy a whole grandfather posted that Bode George said the INEC chairman was at Tinubu's house and left in his jet. A whole grandfather peddling false statements about, even though Bode George is Tinubu's sworn enemy, he said only a crazy person will peddle such around as it was false. You people also said Obasanjo stopped some over 1million people who were transported into Nigeria by 100trucks. How stupid that sounds, still you guys pushed this around and some gullible people believed your farce. How can 100 trucks transport 1million people. Anyone who has a brain will know it's impossible, but zombies that you intend to feed with your lies believed it. Stop giving out false statements as truth. Pastor Adeboye did not protest against Jonathan. What he did was a Prayer Walk for better Nigeria, I participated in it. Yorubas are not the problem my brother. Yorubas also voted for Peter Obi. The problem is ignorance or rather the illusion of knowledge which is worse than ignorance, displayed by people like you. Forming alliance with a region or a section of the country to advance political goals and objectives is not weakness, it is strength. If you have not learnt that from this election you can never learn anything useful. You should have known by now that just like you said Edo voted massively for Peter Obi, that that is not enough to win a presidential election in Nigeria. Winning the whole of South South and South East is not enough to become President. The president must win across all the states and region, even if he does not win in all the states, he must have substantial votes recorded for him to be declared the winner. That's what Peter Obi has failed to do. Kudos to him, he has performed excellently but it's not just enough. |
Felabrity:Where in my post did I say he isn't. Do you have a problem with comprehension? |
NaijaCowFarm:Very good points. Just like Tinubu's preparation for this victory did not start with this election he won. The opposition should strategize and mobilize for future elections. A very strong opposition is a plus in a democracy. We need a strong opposition to hold the incoming government accountable. It will also help the incoming government not to rest on its oars. We will deliver, to win the confidence of the Nigerian citizens but a strong opposition will go a long way to avoid being complacent. |
To all obidients in Lagos Dear Obidients, The judgement to vote for or against SanwoOlu should be based singularly and purely on his performance or lack of it. Don't fall for anyone's propaganda! Don't be a pawn in another person's game!
|
Fut9ure:You are the one who is clearly tribalistic here. You are only painting others this way to make yourself happy. I expected you to present evidence of Baba Adeboye in a protest to back your claim but obviously it's a false claim and you are nothing but a rabble-rouser. If your lies have been left undenounced, it would have passed as truth to those who are gullible. Stop putting false narrative out on the internet as truth. You are just being mischievous. You should do better than that. |

, words like Afonja.... No true Yoruba son will call another "Afonja"
