banom: The purpose is for you to demand excellence in your region or let igbos be.
Have you demanded the said excellence from your region. Among most governors your governors are among the least impactful. Imagine ruling a five plot Of land unsuccessfully that most of your people end up in others region because your region is baren of real life development.
Iexclusivenews: Singer Davido fires back at Lagos lawmaker after Osun election exchange, urging him to “get a job.”
(iexclusivenews)—Afrobeats star Davido has responded to House of Representatives member James Faleke with a sharp message.
“POLITICS is NOT A CAREER. Get a JOB!!!” he posted on X.
The reply continues their public exchange over the Osun State governorship election.
Faleke had earlier denied Davido’s accusation that he pressured the Independent National Electoral Commission to alter results.
In his response, the Ikeja lawmaker said he only went to Osun to support the APC candidate and told Davido to “face your music while we face our politics.”
Davido quoted that post and delivered the new jab on Sunday. The message quickly gained thousands of likes and shares.
@Kenny0one-OBO please cook them. Àwón àgbàyà lo
@iamAbiodunAA-I agree with you on this one. Politics isn’t a career.
@gsbabatunde—Who told You Politics is not a CAREER
Is this really coming from You that your Lineage cannot do without Politics
banom: Are you aware among all the current 36 states governors in Nigeria, and the fct, only three had first class in the university.
They are
Alex oti of Abia state ( first in economics, university of port Harcourt ).
Francis Nwifuru of Ebonyi state ( first class in law, Ebonyi state university )
Chukwuma soludo of Anambra state ( first class in economics, university of Nigeria, nsukka) .
Now here is the interesting part tribal haters and insecure people wouldn't want me to point out...all the three governors are all igbos. In a country where some leaders of the nation and other parts of the country are rumored not to even have an O'level certificate, igbos are ruled by first class graduates. That's excellence.
Infact since 1999, only four governors in Nigeria had first class in the university, that is if you add Osunbor of Edo state to the list.
Omo I respect igbos. Hate them or not, envy them as much as you want, they are class above the rest tribes in Nigeria.
No wonder other Nigerians don't want them to go and have their own separate country, Biafra.
What exactly is the purpose of this post. Abeg go warm eba chop
press9jatv: I never expected Senator Iyiola Omisore to put Osun State APC leaders and members under the bus. His actions have deeply disappointed many party members and supporters across the state.
Betraying the trust of the people and the party at a critical moment like this is unacceptable. Osun APC deserves loyalty, unity and commitment—not actions that undermine the collective struggle.
History will judge every decision made at this crucial time.

He has done his worse right now. We rather have adeleke as governor than that serial betrayer. He was in his known character in the election. A man of no principle whose only allegiance was to his pockets or ego. Bola ige still fresh in our memory too.
HeadBoy9: Such immediate betrayal. Nigerians made a statement by rejecting the bad government and hardship of the APC government yet Adeleke wants us back in it.
Simply because Tinubu is a Yoruba man and more so from his state.
All these sentiments will be the death of us. Vested interest mofos.
So soon? We don talk am say anyone that doesn't align with your evil plots become instant for.
MoneyMan5: If Adeleke failed to support Tinubu unless he decamped to another Party he would most likely support Accord Presidential Candidate because of the house of reps election that will hold the same day.
APC will still get at least 500k votes in Osun state presidential election even if they eventually lose it to Accord presidential candidate. We all know Accord wouldn't pass Osun state even if they win it , Peter Obi and Atiku also have no chance other than getting consolation votes so at the end it will still favour Tinubu.
Same scenario is going to play out in Oyo state even if Tinubu lose the presidential election to Makinde he will still beat Atiku and Obi, people keep forgetting the fact that APC got a lot of votes in Osun election, they think all those votes will disappear overnight when it will be difficult for Atiku ADC and Obi NDC to churn out half of those votes lol.
I agree with you. Adeleke has no reason to work against Tinubu now. All gladiators in osun have been demystified. Tinubu will also lose Kwara too the same way it happened in osun.
IGBOPHOBIA1: What control? That is the problem with you lots. Always afraid of being controlled and acting out of paranoia. The Igbos are not interested in controlling you. What is there to gain from controlling a person like you? Votes? What exactly? Maybe look upwards to the Sardauna that truly controls your destiny.
Abeg shift. Cry all you want Tinubu is the president right now
hegelian: He didn't sacrificed anything, he lost.. 19 governors, Senate President, two service chiefs, several lawmakers and the banning of amotekun and yet una lost woefully.. Tinubu has no people support, his only support is money and rigging and the two always fail when the people stand tall and refuse to shift.. In a free and fear election tinubu can't even get 5%
BATified2023: u obviously know nothing about politics, he supported Adeleke right from the onset n commanded osun apc to adopt Adeleke n they did strong head.
Even osun apc chairman had to say it publicly that if Adeleke likes he can go n b staying in Tinubu house they won't support him.
Tinubu didn't throw anyone under d bus, he made it clear right from d onset that he's with Adeleke
Tinubu kind of politics is really scary. You can't predict what he would do. I can't believe he just sacrificed baba Akande, oyetola and co for adeleke. And this osun election just give bites to opposition morale. It will bite Tinubu in the ass. As it stands it's risky supporting Tinubu for presidency.☹️
Kukutente23: In one breath you attack Onaiyekan like they attack others I'm the next breath you're not obnoxious like them And I'm the one who needs to reevaluate my thinking abi
What I witnessed recently in Ibadan raises a serious concern about the expression of Igbo-phobia within Nigeria’s legal and professional spaces.
I visited a friend’s shop and discovered that he was absent. I was informed that he had received a call that the roof of his residential apartment was being removed and that some of the tenants’ properties were allegedly being taken away by thugs engaged by the landlord and led by an Igbo man who claimed to be acting on the landlord’s behalf.
I gathered some of the tenants and proceeded to Iyanganku Police Station. Police officers were subsequently sent to bring in the man allegedly engaged by the landlord.
While we were at the station, one of the tenants received a telephone call from the lawyer managing the property. I took the phone and introduced myself as a fellow lawyer. I attempted to engage him professionally, as one lawyer speaking to another.
His response, however, was striking.
He said, in substance:
“How can an Igbo person from the South-East be dictating to me as a Yoruba man what to do?”
That statement immediately changed the character of the encounter.
The matter was no longer simply a disagreement over property. The statement explicitly introduced Igbo and Yoruba identity into a dispute that should ordinarily be addressed through law and professional conduct.
I subsequently identified the lawyer as Adeyinka Adeyemi Ibrahim, who, according to the account, was called to the Nigerian Bar in 2008.
Igbo-phobia in a Legal Setting
The incident raises questions about the place of tribal prejudice within Nigeria’s legal profession.
A lawyer should be able to distinguish between a legal dispute and ethnic identity. Whether a person is Igbo, Yoruba, Hausa, Ijaw, Edo, Tiv or from any other ethnic group should have no bearing on how a legal matter is handled.
Yet this incident reflects a wider Nigerian reality: Igbo-phobia exists.
For many Igbo Nigerians living outside the South-East, citizenship can sometimes be treated as though it has geographical limitations. An Igbo person living in Ibadan, Lagos, Abuja or elsewhere in Nigeria may be made to feel like an outsider despite possessing the same Nigerian citizenship as every other Nigerian.
The particular concern in this case is that such an attitude allegedly emerged within a professional setting where equality before the law and professional conduct should be fundamental.
A property dispute is a legal matter.
If there is a disagreement between landlords and tenants, there are lawful procedures for resolving it. Threats, intimidation, the alleged use of thugs and appeals to ethnic identity have no place in the administration of justice.
The law should never become a vehicle through which tribal identity determines who has authority, who deserves to be heard or whose position carries weight.
The Conduct of the Police
It is equally important to record the professional conduct of the officers who handled the matter.
The DCO1 and DPO of Iyanganku Police Station are specifically acknowledged for their professionalism and integrity in handling the situation.
Their conduct demonstrates that institutional responsibility can be exercised without allowing ethnic identity to determine how a dispute is handled.
A Question for the Legal Profession
The legal profession must confront the implications of tribal prejudice when it appears within its own ranks.
Lawyers operate within a system founded on law, rights, due process and equality. Ethnic identity should have no place in determining the professional treatment of another Nigerian.
An Igbo Nigerian does not become less Nigerian because he lives in Ibadan.
A Yoruba Nigerian does not become less Nigerian because he lives in Enugu.
The same principle applies to every Nigerian, regardless of ethnic origin or place of residence.
The issue in this case is therefore not the identity of the lawyer as a Yoruba person. It is the alleged invocation of Yoruba identity to assert authority over, or diminish the standing of, another Nigerian specifically because that person is Igbo.
That is the conduct that constitutes the Igbo-phobic dimension of this incident.
Justice Must Not Have a Tribe
The law belongs to every Nigerian.
A legal dispute should be determined by facts, evidence, procedure and applicable law—not by whether one party is Igbo and another is Yoruba.
The legal profession must never become a platform through which ethnic prejudice is expressed or legitimized.
An Igbo Nigerian should be able to live, work, own property and seek justice in Ibadan without being treated as an outsider.
A Yoruba Nigerian should have the same rights in Enugu.
Nigeria’s ethnic diversity cannot become a basis for determining who deserves to be heard, respected or protected by the law.
The law should never ask whether you are Igbo or Yoruba before it gives you justice.
Kobojunkie: They were to go into the world to the Lost sheep of Israel wherever they may be found, to gather them back. That is what His mandate from YHWH of Israel was, and the same mandate He gave to his followers. 😒😒
Salvation cannot be for everyone because the only ones who needed saving from anything were the Lost Sheep of Israel. 😒
The Covenant was made only to the Israelites by the YHWH of Israel in His Law of Moses ---the Constitution of the ancient nation of Israel --, and it explicitly offered them a chance for Salvation, redemption from the curse of sin(not sin alone). The Israelites, as He proclaimed through Moses, were eventually condemned/cursed by him, the YHWH of Israel. And the redemption that came right as that happened was the salvation from the same curse, which He offered to those of them who were spared the purging that followed the curse.😒😒
By the mandate of Jesus Christ every human is a lost sheep of Israel. It's not literal
Kobojunkie: And by that He meant those to whom He was sent, which is the Lost sheep of Israel. Not a single non-Israelite can obtain that which is Jesus Christ of Israel's salvation from sin. 😒
Jesus when he was living commanded his disciples to go into the world and make salvation of the world. So salvation is for everyone who as long as they believe in Jesus no matter the number, few or many. Just believe us all it requires
WatchYourSix: The guy ddnt argue with you weda hes a Jew or not… suddenly u started accusing him of being afraid to admit and it will make his belief a lie.. the guy is even an atheist seff
My statement remains that Jesus Christ is a Jew. I don't care if the guy is an atheist. Thanks for your observations
