Ihatepork: Where did you get these rubbish figures from about most lands in Apapa being owned by Niger deltans. Sounds like something a Igbo would say. Smh
I mean the investments of ibru family in apapa Silver bird in VI Civic centre
Niger deltans get better choice land in Soith west than Igbo people
There's no fight I think Yoruba has given niger Delta more freedom in Yoruba land than any other tribe
If they want us out of oil companies They should return all the lucrative lands they own in lagos Last I checked apapa that's worth more than $35bn is largely owned by niger deltans
zenmaster: The 21st Obi of Onitsha, HRM. Igwe Nnaemeka Alfred Ugochukwu Achebe has a very very Igbo name, Onitsha is filled with IPOB and Biafra supporters.
Igbo language is spoken from Igbanke, Onicha Ugbo, Agbor, Asaba, Ibusa (Igbo Uzo) etc before you even arrive at Onitsha.
Come down from your ivory tower and face reality
Stop deceiving your father Emir of Ilorin has a Yoruba name Dolapo and Yoruba is spoken in ilorin
Igbo have eze not obi ! Obi is a corrupted word for Oba
Wyttcat: Who still read papers? It's a liar that have their witness in another planet. If there are Kwarans who believe they are part of Yoruba, you would have at least seen a few of them hot on the heels of the guys who claimed to be northerners.

Wyttcat: They don't call them MESU JAMBA for nothing. I've always said that the Yoruba part of Edo, Kwara and Kogi should be left out Omoluabi nation, they are lost forever. I got their body language long time ago, so I blame any SWmer reaching out and lumping them with the heartland.
Nope Kogi Yoruba wants to join ekiti or form a state with non ilorin Yoruba in Kwara
7lives: Most people don't even know that Kwara State is 70% Yoruba, 20 % Tapa and 10% Fulani. The owners of Ilorin, the descendants of Afonja have never denied their Yoruba identity. As long as Igbomina people of Saare, Offa, Omu- aran, Aala, Esie, Igbaja, Oro, axis and the Ekiti people of Kwara State and our Okun brothers in Kogi state are not denying their identity, we can always leave Ilorin behind, what is in Ilorin anyway?, we are talking about economic treasures like Esie museum and fertile farm lands of Igbomina and Okuns here, what does SW stand to gain from Ilorin economically?, that Facebook poster is indeed a learner. If they choose to follow us we shall take them, if they THINK they're not Yoruba, we SHALL leave them behind.
gbam so far non ilorin yoruba kwara wants out thats fine my only concern is Jebba there are about 4 yoruba towns with obas in the north of ilorin so how will ilorin follow gambari and those ones will remain with yoruba unless we create a swaziland in yoruba nation and lock them up
FlyoruB: According to him, all our talents, hardwork and brilliance are because of 'One Nigeria' and would be useless without 'One Nigeria'. Yoruba folks ought to be competing with the likes of the Japanese, Americans , Germans on the world stage. But we have been reduced to competing with yibbo people coz we are trapped in this contraption that tells us we can't develop past a certain point because some other parts have to play catchup and slow down the rest of us, we can't generate our own power (even though we certainly have the capacity to) because some people who have not invested money in IPPs like our states have would feel bad, or we must get permission from Abuja to allow us build a light rail on our own soil. We are supposed to endure the jealousy and envy of some people we share the same country with, who wish us ill and hope the worst befalls Lagos and the rest of the SW. Only a self-loathing slave would choose such existence over the inpendence to chart his own course through life.
BabaRamota1980: Its not that Yoruba isn't aware of the benefits of a dissolved Nigeria, but that historically our civilization bequeathed to us a legacy of dimensional growth and expansion. Even when faced with the worst adversity we triumph. Dissolution of Nigeria and the resulting benefits pale in scale when compared with the challenges of Kiriji War for instance. We did not dissolve the Yoruba Commonwealth because of competition and today we see that we are better off for it. The Yoruba signature is that of a builder, the one who takes nothing and brings out of it something beautiful to behold, or who meets a dilapidated situation and invests in its improvement and rebrand.
We are resilient and we are creators of urban civilization and order.
We have vast investments in Nigeria, the challenge we face will wear down in the course of our resilient stay, and we shall triumph and return to the regional governance.
Kiriji war was as a result of hegemony of oyo Yoruba And that's 1893 Under yorubanation we will build a better nation With equal constitution! What's the point of investing when tax goes to other regions
FlyoruB: I was referring specifically to none other than the slavish Ilorin-fula Yoruba wannabes whose mentality he's depicting, not the other Kwaran yorubas who do not share such inferiority complex.
Oh yeah those of Alimi extraction That said Yoruba needs a lot of awareness
Johnnyessence: The funniest thing here's that some yorubas rob themselves with hausa and fulani which the division isn't smooth enough. Now they are clamouring for restructuring in which I don't think it will work with the present politicians we have at the center. I strongly believe if yoruba nation is been form yoruba people will do well on every spheres of life.
Gbam I'm 100% confident Yoruba nation will have electricity not this nonsense we are managing generator
Deedeedeeone: Some Yoruba people need to be smacked in the head for them to reason like humans. How can a Yoruba man say that Yoruba people survival lies on other Nigerians tribes? How can a Yoruba say that Yoruba companies cannot survive when we leave the country? If that is so, then how come American, south korea and Japanese multinational companies are surviving? Note that South Korea and Japan are monoethnic countries. His ignorance stinks me!
Gbam ! I read an article where someone said Yoruba leaders have failed to wake the inner Yoruba consciousness in us ! This guy is a typical example Imagine during the lagos Ibadan debate Yoruba senators were not there to champion the cause ?
Most of those people with Yoruba names Are Fulani ilorin who adopt Yoruba names they really from the Alimi ruling family Saraki is from that clan so when you see such a thing you should know it's not real Yorubas!
He opened his mouth to type forget about Keats and Kogi that's when I knew the boy was very ignorant Oyo border made 120bn half year 2017 all that money went to central The same oyo is struggling to maintain lautech And the mumu is still saying one Nigeria After north as said no to restructuring
mercyville: Then you are not thinking about the future .Ask yourself..is this where Nigeria should be in this age..especially.. Yoruba with all the endowments bestowed on us by God.Have you not seen that the North is saying..if we(north) do not grow..then the rest of the country too must stay with us in the stagnant state we created for ourselves.I am sure you are benefitting from the rot.
Yoruba under Nigeria has no light no good schools Yoruba is not controlling its borders its water even companies in Yoruba land don't pay profit tax to it
Yoruba and Niger delta are the biggest losers a of Nigeria
Deedeedeeone: Nigeria can never be restructured! Why do Yorubas like to deceive themselves? Is it part of our culture or what? It is easier to split the country than to restructure it. The Northerners see no difference between both.
Gbam ! It's like Yoruba don't want to accept the truth Nigeria can't be restructured Or they re not ready to start agitation to exit Nigeria maybe due to role we played during the civil war
Johnandv: Chickened out of what? Is he Awolowo the new generation Ambassador of rat poison. Are you pained this much that you can't stand me demolish your fellow ewduote that you've come to bail his asss.
Afongyzz from the fallen demon oduduwa personified!!
Only a matter of time before kanu runs away like azikwe and ojuku then marry a prostitute and commit suicide
