My people and friends of my people,

I come with a proposal.
It can't be a one man mission.
We have to, need to, and must access and reawaken our people.

Due to ignorance, we have multiple Yorubas 1) clamoring for one Nigeria 2) thinking like FFK, Kemi Ololoyo and Fayose (who sent Ekiti people to go learn nonsense in Aba, when he could have sent them to Ogun or Lagos).

It seems like a great number of Yorubas are ignorant of the intellectual and businesses they own. They've been fed so much lies about some traders owning this percentage and that percentage, and the unfortunate thing about it is that, many have come to believe the lies.

Can we take the knowledge we've amassed on this thread beyond NL?

I am proposing creating a

1) FB &
2) Twitter

accounts to celebrate our people. However, this has to be carried out as an executable and SUSTAINABLE project.

The group would be used to share knowledge about Yorubas' economic, interest and many other things. We'll also accept guest posts. So it's a content based groups where people write pieces and submit to admin. People can also ask questions to foster conversations. The groups would also be used to reawaken Yoruba consciousness cos most of those silly Yoruba Facebook groups aren't doing anything meaningful other than posting pictures of babies wearing agbada and telling people to like posts


If you're in, please reply my quoting me and letting me know your stance. I give each man a week to stake his ground. Can we guarantee 200 members for a start?

Whatever you choose will not change my wonderful opinion of all of you. Much love

With very unstable power, poor currency, insecurity etc. The only advantage Nigeria has is a huge consumer market.

Alcatraz001:
Igbos must go back to the east because other tribes hate them (I am Christian and I have grown to hate the igbo unfortunately). The only solution is to go and develop the east. The igbos are who they are proud, rude and very insolent. Other Nigerians are getting tired of igbo antics. Our only problem is the Nigerian elite who won't let the igbos go. If ordinary Nigerians had the power, igbos would have Biafra before fall. We have spoken and given all the hints that we can but the igbos always want to prove stubborn and brave.

I put the whole heat being felt in the polity on igbos because they have been insulting Yorubas and Hausas for the past 2 years because Jonathan lost. The ijaws have moved on but the igbo have refused to move on. I am afraid things may come to a head before, on or after October 1st and the blame for the catastrophe will lie solely at the door of the Igbos. #angryNigerian.

ColonelDrake:
Isn't that what I am calling for.

ColonelDrake:
Hausa and Yeebolla should not bring Yoruba into this at all. They should leave us out of their miseries, hatred and frustrations rather than trying to whip up sentiment from Yoruba.

Again, what was Lamidi cownu's job before he was deported to naija?

AkinPhysicist:
You are supporting a man who says he will not rest until "...every single Yoruba man, woman and child is dead..." Do yourself a favor and learn how to recognize your enemies.

Even Chimamanda Ngozi Adichie exposed the heart of Igbo people. She said even to this very day Igbo parents teach their children from infancy that 'Yorubas are THE enemies.' Igbos don't love us. They never have and never will. Only a fool will take a snake and put in his bosom. No tribe did more to assist Igbos after the war than Yorubas. If after that they still don't deal sincerely, then forget it -twill never happen. That is why, some of us who know the truth about this country, want Biafra for Igbos more than many Igbos themselves. In fact I am willing to donate thousands of dollars if there is a guarantee that Biafra will be actualized. Gbagbe oshi joor!

Warship:
The list of these senators and their states should be made public.

lionel4power:
We are also talking of landmass of 60km square. With
that we can stand as a mini country. If you look at each
state in Southwest, if we make use of the potentials
available to us , we are bigger than many nations in the
world.

Who else understand this??

FlyoruB:
Bro, it's really shameful. Nothing can justify denying who you are. It's an insult to his parents and forebears. But then again he might have his reasons. Perhaps he's being wary of all the bad press them folks have been generating lately, from Evans, to Drug-trafficking, to the Northern youths ultimatum. Sane way other igbo deniers have their reasons. Guy, I'd probably deny being igbo too if I was an Igbo domiciled in the North today o. Na to give myself Afonja tribal mark and claim Ogbomosho go sure pass. It can't be easy being igbo right about now in history, bro.

neoOduduwa:
I've been eyeing the entertainment industry and our grip on it is pretty solid. We are going to show potopoto slaves how it's done, we Omoluabis back our claims with facts

Movie Industry


At this point, I hope I've been able to clarify who the real pioneers of Nollywood are. Fast forward to 2017, we still have potopoto slaves claiming they actually "own" Nollywood. Let's go through the list of highest-grossing Nigerian films

2. A Trip To Jamaica - 178.5 million naira - Produced by Ayo Makun

4. Fifty - 94 million naira - Produced by Mosunmola Abudu (EbonyLife TV) and Directed by Biyi Bandele

5. Half Of A Yellow Sun - 60 million naira - Directed by Biyi Bandele

6. October 1 - 60 million naira - Produced and Directed by Kunle Afolayan

7. The CEO - 60 million naira - Produced and Directed by Kunle Afolayan

19.Gone Too Far - 8.5 million naira - A film by Bola Agbaje

20. Irapada - 5 million naira - Produced and Directed by Kunle Afolayan

Note : The domestic gross of the movies above were produced by [url]wikipedia.org[/url], at no point in the post did I attempt to tamper with the records nor round any number up. Also, it's important to understand that the figures above were not adjusted by inflation. Every domestic gross stated above is the same as the number value which gives a glib and superficial analysis. For example, Kunle Afolayan's Irapada which generated 5 million naira in 2006 would have generated folds if it were to be released in 2017.

We don't need to make noise with these people, they're nerdy white boys trying to get into a dick-measuring contest with a Mandingo

Omoluabi ju won lo

These Southwest people think that we don’t understand the politics they are playing, we do but we will shock them when the time comes.

Markfemi2:
Hey calm down it was written by a Yoruba man and posted by me who is Yoruba

The issue now is what is our stand ?
We will be delusional to say the partnership with north is working cause it's not
They are caging Yemi from working simple cause he's not a northerner

So what is our stand ?
Enough of the diplomacy
Let's make a strong statement
Also why is tinubu so quiet about everything
Why is it only Fayose that's saying what Yorubas don't want to say out?
Enough of insults from others on Yoruba
