The Hausas started their wind down from the center when they declared islamic law for North. Now they declared islamic banking. They are calculating that they will win 2015 presidential election. If they do we will see more wind down and disengagement. Here are few things we can expect:

1. Hausa as official language and arabic/english as second language.

2. Consolidating power back into the Caliphate and electing regional Governor answerable to the Caliph.

3. Independent treaties and alliances complete with diplomatic representations.

4. Full wind-down and a declared Hausa sovereignty.

Ordinary fulani herdsmen marched into yoiur heartland and slaughtered people and took young ibo women with them into the bush, they canme out without wrapper and your boys to street with placard protesting harrasment. Two ddays or so ago, Massob followed their footsteps and marche in protest to police harassment and even begged human rights to intervene. . . . .and efulefu like you is here making mouuth for war with Yoruba. Ahh! Lol!

Why did you run in '93 andd '02 when you saw blood?
Ewu!


Promise you will not call UN or human rights for help when we start with you.

Beaf,

I want first to let you know that you are one of the people I most respect here and I probably should not even have responded on your post like that. So let me beg your forgiveness on that. It cannot nonetheless be ignored because everything is pointing to a dangerous cresting soon.

In addition, if this move is Gej's, I find it very irritating that the President is using logical steps to rule an emotional issue. I very often disagree with some things he has done so far but he has his own style and though he has been in that executive position for two terms now (first as VP and now as Pres), his grip on national issues are dissapointing but I do believe that "while he was not the best candidate, people voted him in and as such we must respect him and repect his office. People voted on emotion and their expectations of him are tied to those emotions. So he needs to start responding emotionally to the people.

On SNC, do you know why its difficult to get it going? Ill tell you its because the Europeans have no model for it that we can copy.

Czhekoslovakia is the only Euro country that dissolved but it happened in bloodshed. Our own dissolution attempt with bloodsshed failed. Now we cannot find a safe model laid down by white man for us to use. Our academia has limits when it comes to application, goes to show we are good at copying and mimicking but incapable of originality. We want to amend constitution and experts in London and America are subnmitting ideas. Should we hate Boko for their push back on the encroachment of too much western ideologies? Is this civilization or self-enslavement?

Thousands of people have died over the years because the balance of power is tipped away from South. If anyone ought to be upset and raising hell about the nonsense called Nigeria it ought to be a Southerner and not the Northerners. Yet we are at it every turn attempting to patch and make what is not workable go a few more years in hope that we will ultimateLy salvage it. While we are amending constitution that Hausas don't care about they are attending to what they care about and will benefit them - Sharia and islamic banking.

What will benefit us that we need to attend to in the South? I don't think its the constitution but I'm probably wrong.

Without doubt everyone in the country for the first time agree and spoke with one voice - we want SNC! The North want it, the West want it, the East want it. What are we waiting for?

I will be glad to share ideas on that topic if its opened.

Thank you sir!

Listen to what Gani Adams said. He said some of our leaders. Which is the next level of leadership above Gani's status in Yorubaland?

Governors/kings/kingmakers?

What is the reaction of the traditional rulers to Mustapha's revelation about the tongues that were bought?

You see this is why I respect the Hausa and their resolve to follow up with deeds to their words.

Southerners are the ones that continue to patch and repair the nationality. Hausa could care less what we do, when its time for them to do what they want they don't give a daymn about constitution. They make their declaration and they follow it up with action.

We are here hugging and trying to prove to the world that we can make this democracy survive for all the unwilling people cojoined in it.

After the amendments then what next? We are back to complaints of Hausa enjoying oil, Hausa ruling, Hausa this and Hausa that. Hausa could care less wehther this Nation survives or dissolves, they are setting up and configuring what they need for a wind down and wind out of the union and nobody is going to hold them back.

We need the fvcking SNC, not a gaddem constitution amendment! Amendment for who? West don't need it, Hausa don't need it, so I guess this is for South and South East.

The so-called Oloza and his fellow moro.ns in Ugbodu or Ugbodumila should not be unhappy with the seemingly Igbo language interference in their lives, they should simply park their luggage and relocate to Owo/Akure axis in Ondo State. If they do not leave in peace, time shall come when they had to leave in pieces.

Dede,

I dare you to touch those people. Everything with Ibo written on it and located in the West will become ashes. We will then send the ashes to East in their respective caskets.

I have read the scriptures front to back several times over the years and each read takes me deeper through doors I never been before. With the new access come new understanding and awareness. Tonight, I stumbled upon a new link of historical fact.

There is too much similarities than there are dissimilarities between the language, meaning, rituals of the Edos and those of Afro-Asia to dismiss this as just mere coincidence. I have commented a lot about the presence of Yoruba and its sub groups as a whole fraternal of kins who migrated from that region and through different lands before they finally settled in the savannah of what is today Western Nigeria. Some like the Kanem did not go as far.

This Bible is the Hebrew-Greek version written by a Greek and with translation from Old Hebrew. Here is the footnote that caught my attention:

"Edom, the elder twin-brother of Jacob; the region of Idumea was occupied by him"


In Nigeria the only people that have "Idu-". . .anything in their language is the EDO.

Jacob's name was later changed to Israel. The family from that time on became known as "Children of Israel". Therefore the father of the EDOs and the father of the Twelve Tribes of Israel are twin brothers. This means Edos are not Israelites but as I have established numerous times before with evidence of rituals and language similarities, this add to the list and lay emphasis on their proto-semitic root.

I also want to ask why Yoruba people, in addition to high rate of twin births also have children with hair-locks (Dada)?

There was nothing wrong with slave institution in Africa and for that age.

White man lost his soul and dehumanized and debased what for centuries Africans had managed well and within confines of human conscience and understanding of the cosmic karma.

I read it ekt_bear and sorry I did not respond, I'm deprogrammed from any thread of commonality to the federation. Supporting the union is akin to supporting the federation.

Ekt,


Yes and there were also fulani in the West even before Jihad.

Remember Yorubaland extended into Zamfara, which later became part of Sokoto state. Prior to Fodio's Jihad, Hausa states were sandwiched between Songhai, Oyo and Kanem.

Hausa never had an imperial state but they had kingdom. I won't be surprised that they (Hausa in pagan age) were tributary of Old Oyo at one time and this would explain the slavery account. They were part of the Oyo cavalry also.

There's nothing wrong in smoking weed. The abuse of it is what should be discouraged. Some people smoke weed like cigarette. . . . .one every two hours or so. That's abuse! Taken in moderation, weed has far more benefits to the osteopathy of the human body.

this is a lie. but let's assume Alaba was a swamp before Igbos got there, that's still not an achievement. take any swamp, move people there to start buying and selling.

</quote>

Let them know SuruLere was a swamp before Ijeshas moved in there.

LOL!!!! Obviously you aren't / wouldn't going / go anywhere in life! You sound like a girl in high school, talkative!

I'm glad you stopped and read the post.

@op,

Give their respective names and posts.

Dude,

What's the need for interpretation? Lmao!

Yorubas have been "sissified" by western education. We have come to accept aggression and assault as a paradox to what a gentleman or lady ought to be. Since we are particularly conscious of being socially accepted as a gentleman and a lady, we choose to relate with acquiescense and tolerance, even in direct threat of disposession, we walk away and yield to a threatening loud voice, rather than grab the loudmouth in his neck and choke his words and breathe. Incremental verbal assaults sent our way too long without a response has brought this situation.

Like I've said repeatedly and God is my witness, it is battle all the way. I'm not going anywhere until Ibo bow down.

Back in those days Yorubas ruled what is in modern day Nigeria and all the way west into Ghana.
Yorubas imprisoned, evicted, exiled and even sold white men as slaves.

The West has been politically wild for hundreds of years that British naval officers took caution and preferred diplomacy to direct confrontation with Yorubas, either of Oyo, Ijesha, Ijebu, Egba, Lagos or Bini. . . . . .in the 1851 war with British Royal Navy, Yorubas with Tapa killed the English sailors and their officers and sank three of their war vessels and they had to retreat and regroup with reinforcement of more war vessels. Even with that, they were held back and were contemplating giving up but by an act of accident a mortar shell landed behind the stockade erected by the yoruba warriors. The accidental shell landed on pile of munitions and set off rapid explotions which resulted in an inferno that burned parts of the city. This loss shifted the advantage to the British side and they were able to land onshore and take over the city. There is a cannon gun sitting in Oba's palace till today. That cannon was recovered from a destroyed naval vessel and ordered installed for souvernir at the palace by Kosoko.

Oyiboman has no sense, in this book they keep saying "Cabooceer". The idiots meant "Kabiyesi", a term of honor and endearment when greeting or addressing an Oba or Chief.

I schooled and lived in USA for over 20 years. The law says if you live in America for certain period of time you can vote and be voted. This is exactly why Obama became the president of America.

</quote>

So why didn't Okafor contest in USA where the law clearly allows him than fighting for something restricted to him?

I think Ibos in Lagos are too comfortable. Yorubas have accomodated them too snugly, they need a reminder for where home is.

Very long read in Google Books, requires patience. In here it is evident that the Yoruba diplomacy and negotiation skills in politics are ancient.

CAN must not form any alliance with East. We need to be talking about dissolution, not consolidation
