All stories need to be heard for balance and equity,
The Benin Story, The Lagos Story the Port Harcourt Story The Urhobo story
The January 15 Story

All stories matter
Obasanjo has written books, same for Alabi-Isama, Ojukwu etc when will Gowon put his story in print so we can know what happened in Aburi and the war. He just goes around making all these flaky, contradictory statements that hold no water.

It's been revealed that Oba Akenzua talked him out of Aburi. http://www.punchng.com/biafra-memo-akenzua-aburi/

So him saying the Aburi accord was misunderstood by both sides is just plain childish and disgraceful for a man of his age

What would you say about Odi, Zakibiam and closure of news paper houses and TV stations by OBJ?

PMB the best president ever!
PMB has killed more Igbos since 2015 than Odi and Zaki Biam combined. Soldiers not only murdered people in the streets and took their bodies but kidnapped people from hospitals. What has stopped that coward from doing more is President Trump

SW Votes Buhari & Demand Accountability, Far Better Than Voting GEJ & Excusing Incompetense.


This is directed at the "we warned but they did not listen" crew.

God scatter all of you and your yeye warning! Rascals!! Onitsha bridgehead touts!!!

You voted in GEJ and reinforced him with your support and vote of confidence even when everyone could see that he was below par. Your voice could have acted as a feedback and sound of reasoning for him to take cue and correct. If you touts had done what you were to do Jonathan would have done right and be voted in. Your warnings should have gone to help Jonathan, not to those who saw him as liability.

Your failure to protect your asset in GEJ got him booted out.

We in Yorubaland admit voting Buhari in and we see what Buhari is. He is no different from Jonathan. If your warnings could not save Jonathan I dont know what use it is to us.

We will give Buhari the proper feedback and he will corrwct and do right or his legacy after his administration shall be brought to ruin. Do you not see how Abacha's legacy has been disreputed and condemned everywhere?
I thought you lot have been shouting for years that it's your vote that put Jonathan in power in 2011. (Even though statistically speaking SW votes did not MAKE him president per say) Suddenly it's SE/SS that voted for him? Can you guys choose one

shocked see as this cabal has stripped Tinubu naked politically. After all the bad belle that ACN/Tinubu had for GEJ, its ironic that Buhari has marginalised totally marginalised them a hundred times more than PDP did. Jonathan gave Alpha Beta a lot of business and didn't discriminate.

Since I have known Nigeria,Yorubas have always been the ones largely fighting for the rights of Nigerians,Igbos have always been cowards who always queue behind Yorubas to make noise....maybe one or two of them....

Not being in govt and opposing govt rightly is braver and more dangerous.

All this noise even from T.Y Danjuma is because a larger percentage of Yorubas who always risk their lives protesting,is with Buhari even if he has disappointed in a larger percentage,he is doing very well in infrastructures....although he is a bigot of the highest order with scheming cabals,we shall triumph.
Yorubas are a reliable people,some of us voted for Buhari in 2015 because of integrity.We have to help him to make the administration successful.
The problem with the govt is the negative scheming going on.It will backfire on them negatively.
You don't know the truth. Propaganda has overwhelmed the few things you might know. Igbos have always fought for the good of Nigeria without beating chest like yorubas do. Please use google.

Yorubas voted for Buhari in 2015 for purely selfish reasons, not integrity. What Buhari did to yorubas in 1984-1985 he is doing again.

You’re saying rubbish. Yes, Dimeji Bankole first shut it down like you said.

That shows you the liberal mindset of the Yoruba people. We have people with dissenting opinions on issue of importance and it is one of the main advantage we have over other tribes in Nigeria.

Bankole shut it down at first because of politics play within the PDP. They are still in the early stage of the agitation and the speaker is trying to be politically correct not to offend the cabals at the initial stage. That dosen’t mean Bankole was against Jonathan.

[s]Your problem is that you don’t know how a democracy work and the separation of powers.

How can Dora Akunyuli a minister be the one that was the most instrumental in installing Jonathan? How will the emotional tantrum thrown by Akunyili make the Senators and House of rep guys invoke the doctrine of necessity? Do you mean Akunyili would compel the Turai cabals to give Jonathan power ? Who is Akunyili!!

The Save Nigeria Group took the bull by the horn by moving their protest to the house coz they know that is only where the redemption of Jonathan lies.

Demi Gbajabiamila (ACN) was the first one to raise the issue on the floor of the house when his other colleagues in PDP are afraid to talk on the house for the fear of the cabals. That move from within coupled with the protests from outside eventually compelled the house to invoke the doctrine.[/s]

Sowore was the one that revealed Yar’adua ailment when the cabals were lying about his health to stall the transition of power to Jonathan. If not for Sahara reporters the cabals would have been taking the house for a ride coz they will simply say Yar’adua health was not that bad.

The Yorubas have always been the pioneer of any protest against constituted authorities in the history of Nigeria. That explains why the Yoruba form the bulk of the activists of this nation. For you to come here to debate this issues mean you are a novice that dosen’t even understand basic political history.

You don’t know what you are saying and it’s either you’re a novice or you’re purposely ignorant.

Gbajabiamila was the first person to bring the motion of the invocation of the doctrine of necessity to the house of representative even as an ACN candidate when the other igbos in both chambers were afraid to speak up.

“Gbajabiamila brought a motion on the floor of the House for the invocation of the doctrine of necessity, during the illness and absence of President Umar Musa Yar’Adua. This effort in the end led to the swearing-in of Dr. Goodluck Ebele Jonathan as Acting President. It is apropos to note that Gbajabiamila was the first and only legislator to have mustered the courage to move such motion in the House.”

I dare you to bring out an evidence that give any credence to the fact that Dora Akinyuli forced the cabinet and that the Yorubas weren’t the first one to strike.
Mohammed Sani Abdul moved the motion not Gbajabiamila tongue Your lies are too many on this site. We see your lies but ignore many of them unless we are in the mood grin

grin grin see how you backtracked from your lies that yorubas fought for GEJ and Igbos only came to chop tongue now you want to use microscope to measure irrelevant nonsense. You also used style to dodge the fact of who betrayed Abiola/June 12...smh

See Dora Akunyili in action -

[b]When Information and Communications Minister, Prof Dora Akunyili, presented her memorandum asking her colleagues to wake up to their responsibility to the Nigerian nation, tempers flared and voices were raised. Some of the ministers rose from their seats so their voices would carry in the chambers of the Executive Council of the Federation (EXCOF). Some rained insults on her. A few asked her if she had weighed the risks of her presenting such a position paper.

There were also threats of sack from those who felt Akunyili should not continue to stay in council after submitting such a strong-worded memo.
Sunday Sun findings showed that the memorandum took the ministers by surprise and if the Secretary to the Government of the Federation, Yayale Ahmed, had not had the presence of mind to ask for the copies already in the hands of the members, it would have been difficult to calm frayed nerves at the meeting.

There were 42 copies of the document with all of the members but when the ministers were told to return them, the SGF discovered that three copies were missing. It took another round of search and persuasion before the missing copies were retrieved.
According to one of the ministers sympathetic to Akunyili’s stand, “I salute Dora’s courage because it takes courage to look your boss in the eye and ask him to step down for his deputy. Many of us are also not comfortable with the way things have gone in the country these past two months, which is why we are supporting her.”[/b]

Oga na lie, it was Sahara reporters that first announced the death of yar'adua, even gej confirmed that he saw the news on Sahara.
Falana, wole soyinka and thousands of Nigerians protest because of Jonathan (it all started from South West) tell me how many prominent Igbo protested? Though we have to give it to Dora, she tried but all she did was talk, the real fighters were on d Street risking their lives
Nobody is saying Soyinka did not march with Tunde Bakare and co. Prominent Igbos like Olisa Agbakoba marched, Odumegwu Ojukwu as old and sick as he was also marched in Abuja. The issue here no be marching matter. An Igbo minister risked everything to battle Yar'Adua's cabal. Because she was inside government she was a million times more powerful than people on the street. Did any yoruba in government fight for GEJ? For that guy to say yorubas (alone) for fought is a rubbish lie.

During the heat of Abacha’s tyranny, it was thesame Yorubas that fought in their numbers to give us the democracy we are enjoying today. The Igbos inturn led million marches in solidarity for Abacha.

When the cabals tried denying Jonathan his right to ascend the presidential throne, the Yorubas were instrumental in clamoring for the rule of law to take its. Jonathan got there only to remember he was Igbo and severed ties with those that fought for him.
These are two of the most frequent lies and propaganda that yorubas tell.

1. Yoruba elders sold Abiola/June 12 to Abacha long before anybody knew what was going on. While likes of Admiral Ndubuisi Kanu and Olisa Agbakoba were risking their lives fighting the military.

2. Was it not Dora Akunyili as minister of Information in the Yar'Adua administration that forced the executive council/cabinet to make GEJ acting president?

Politics › The Rich Must Be Taxed Mercilessly: Aregbesola by joeyfire(op): 8:43pm On Dec 16, 2019
As eminent Nigerians assembled in Ibadan to celebrate the former Governor of Oyo State, Senator Abiola Ajimobi at 70, Ogbeni Rauf Aregbesola, former governor of Osun State, has said for the economy to improve, the rich in the country “must be taxed mercilessly”.

According to him, to help lift the poor from the mud of poverty, the rich would have to pay more than they are paying as taxes.

He said this at the second Abiola Ajimobi roundtable to mark the 70th birthday of the former governor.

His views, which he said he presented as Ogbeni Rauf Aregbesola and not as Minister of Interior, however, drew the ire of Mrs Ibukunoluwa Awosika, one of the discussants who asked why the rich had to be punished for striving hard, in the same difficult environment where the poor are.

For decades the rest of Nigeria has used the inability or unwillingness of successive presidents to build the bridge as an opportunity to taunt the SE.

Where was the author when Ohanaeze and SE govs were lobbying Buhari to continue what GEJ started? So it's now that the bridge is nearing an advanced stage that is when its time to remind everybody that its not an Igbo bridge. Nigerians play too much politics.
