Eluwilussit:
I am not doubting you. In one of my posts, I stated that I had thought, based on popular belief or info, that Yorubas were more. I am not in any way arguing your position. If anything, I am only stating what I thought, which might be wrong.

So if you have anything or source that can help me understand your position, I am open to it. Here to learn and not to argue. Thanks a lot. I appreciate your effort.

Eluwilussit:
Did you actually quite Wikipedia? I thought we all knew by now that anybody can put any unverified info there. We need a genuine census.

bigfrancis21:
Wikipedia isn't a credible source. Please quote verifiable and published books that support your claim. I don't mean books on population figures all referenced from Nigeria's false population figures but rather census figures conducted free and fairly devoid of 'Nigerian' influence.

bigfrancis21:
When has wikipedia suddenly become more credible than a privately and well-researched study and well-conducted survey? Wikipedia that just anybody logs into and writes up any thing they like?

How can you trust wikipedia when most schools ban citation of wikipedia in research work? The book I sent you the link can easily be quoted in any research work any time anyday but Wikipedia will not make it into the bibliography. How then is Wikipedia deemed more important by you?

Search well, the only population figures on Yoruba you will find online all originate from the census figures given out by Nigeria. Nigeria is a country built on insincerity and lies. When the actual truth starts coming out you will be very shocked to find out what the truth is.

KOBOJO:
Were you expecting 100 million for yoruba speakers ??

Better wake up from ur dream and face reality.,
the fact still remains that yoruba is still the least of the major 3 ethnic groups in Nigeria.

bigfrancis21:
Wikipedia goes by population census quotes they obtain from census figures of Nigeria which we know are highly flawed and fabricated. When a thorough and sincere census of Nigeria is conducted you will be shocked to find out the actual figures of tribes in Nigeria. Hausa, Igbo, Yoruba may still emerge top 3 as expected, however, the ordering in desceding order will shock you.

Below are population census figures of Igbo and Yoruba tribes in as early as 1921. You will be shocked to find out that Igbo were greater in population than the Yoruba.

squaddy:
Mr. Provide tangible proofs linking GEJ's interest to the immigration travesty or keep mute.

squaddy:
Is he or is he not? Stop displaying ignorance here. A phoolish man rapes a teenager,and you blame GEJ,your father gets high on weed,you blame the same man,your mother displays her promiscuity,it's Gej's fault. What is wrong with you people!!!!

Samchelsea:
google is your friend bro...why not make a research and find out the amount of jobs created?

squaddy:
Nitwit GEJ is not the head of immigrations.

Samchelsea:
common sense is not common.....read what is written there carefully before spewing trash
He is making reference to the direct jobs made available to the youths through the youwin program and this doesn't translate to the total number of jobs created by his administration for the general public

Hahahahahahahaha. I nor fit laff. No wonder they say GMB nor need certificate.

People doing & quoting what suits them, even again all logic. Hahahahaha.

Ok o, 9ja na real comedy club.

AreaFada2:

When did you turn to an elite European university to set exams for me? I passed my degrees many years back with flying colours and difficult fellowship exams to boot. All in a place where quota, tribe, region, religion & bribery have no role to play.
All I had to rely on was GOD and hard work.

If you haven't seen the video where Buhari said so, you better go see it.

AreaFada2:
.
He said he wants to make Sharia nationwide.

Since we down south, except maybe SW if they don't mind, don't want sharia, then the next best he can get is Arewa Boko Republic or any other God-forsaken name for that matter.

AreaFada2:
.

War or no war, at the end we want this failed Nigeria experiment ended. The mere geographical expression Pa Awo talked about has no viable future. Bigots & tribalists causing problems every time helps nobody.

What Buhari really needs is a Sharia country in the North.

Each resulting country will still be big enough. Anyone with inordinate desire to be president can so actualise it.

Talking of war, any war will last over 10 years. Expect at least 10 to 15 million deaths. It would be the worst catastrophy since WW2.

All the elites will fly their families abroad. If that is what the average Nigerian wants, so be it.

Like actions in Hollywood blockbusters, gunmen, which number could not be easily ascertained, on Friday morning raided a printing press in Shomolu area of Lagos State, carting away copies of a book on the administration of President Goodluck Jonathan.

Our correspondent gathered that the gunmen harassed the printers and took away copies of the book, entitled Two-Faced Jonathan: 100 Reasons Why Jonathan Must Go, authored by Blessing Agbomhere.

Workers in the printing press who were too  frightened, could not ask questions or confront the gun-wielding men suspected to be security operatives.

Speaking to journalists on the development, Agbomhere said the book was scheduled for launch at the Nigerian Union of Journalists (NUJ) Secretariat in Lagos, before the incident.

Agbomhere, who is also the initiator of Change Ambassador of Nigeria (CAN), said, “This book was being printed in Shomolu and I was told that the book that was to be launched today (Saturday) was taken away after someone within the printing press, who has sympathy for the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP), alerted security operatives about it.

“They came and confiscated all the printed copies of the book.  They came in mufti.

“We don’t know the arm of security agency that they belong to, or whether they are private individuals or not.

“The printers had to immediately release the books to them, because, they were heavily armed. I am not owing them. I have already paid them.”

Agbomhere added that the book mirrors Jonathan as a “President of the cabal, Tompolo, Asari-Dokubo and a few other corrupt elements, who are sponsoring Boko Haram to destroy Nigeria’s unity.

“The book says President Jonathan has failed to defend the Constitution of the Federal Republic of Nigeria and as such should not seek re-election or ask for a job he know he doesn’t have the capacity to do,” he said.

The author dared Jonathan to act on the Nigeria National Petroleum Corporation (NNPC) forensic audit report and bring those indicted by the report to book.

Also speaking, Ibilola Essien, a social entrepreneur with Act Now Nigeria, a non-governmental organisation, said the present administration has not done enough to salvage the country from the many problems besieging it.

According to her, poverty and corruption have continued to soar, while insecurity in the North East has claimed over 15,000 lives since 2009.
