seunmsg: Ultra-modern state of the art water supply system designed with 7D technology and delivered vide supersonic energy to the people of Sokoto by the almighty holier than thou Peter Obi of the Gbajue republic 🤣🤣🤣
This agulu fraud is an idiot and busy scoring own goals. Pictures of all these funny looking boreholes would be used as campaign arsenal against him in 2027.
The reason SE is even number 2: Their people are scattered all over the prosperous SW trying to make ends meet and are sending remittance home. SW is like Europe+America to them. As I am typing this, several new arrivals are disembarking at various night bus parks allover the SW region
dequir: Peter Obi is seriously courting the north like an ashawo on heat.
Wishing him the best of luck, but he is bound to fail.
And come to think of it, with what political vehicle is he going to win the northern votes? Is it with the LP which is now in complete disarray? All the northern votes are held tight within the PDAPC political clan.
Also can the "abokis" ever vote massively for the "nyamiris"? Let's wait and see.
Lol. For him to win in the North, the LP would have to win the state house of assembly elections in Northern states, HOR and whole lot of Senate seats which we all know it's as good as impossible. Those politicians would be delivering for PDP and APC.
amnesty7: If the guy abandons his "religious war" rhetorics and build real bridges and make the right alliances devoid of unnecessary sentimens, it will greatly increase his chances in those states that he could not penetrate.
Yes daddy - religious war and church, wake up and take back your country tape and video recordings would be played repeatedly in mosques and shared on whassap groups come 2027.
Thank you for your interesting insight. While your accusation against the Government and the Yorubas may have some merit, if one is paranoid, perhaps we should consider what cannot lie: the facts.
How come the same government that is prosecuting Bobrisky, a Yoruba man, for, according to you, the sole purpose of targeting unknown Igbo people, also facilitated Air Peace to become the only Nigerian airline to have direct flights to the United Kingdom via London Gatwick Airport, which is owned by another Yoruba man, named Bayo Ogunlesi?
If the Nigerian government and the Yoruba are as anti-Igbo as you postulate, would it not have been very easy for them to frustrate Air Peace, bearing in mind that a Yoruba person is President of Nigeria, while another Yoruba owns Gatwick Airport and two other UK airports?
Do you know how easy it would have been for the Tinubu administration to have frustrated the Geometric Power Plant currently providing almost uninterrupted power supply to Aba? But rather than frustrate it, they facilitated it.
For eight years of Buhari, the Igbo did not get one service chief. Today, our beloved Ndi'Igbo people have the Chief of Naval Staff. But when President Tinubu appointed Vice Admiral Emmanuel Ikechukwu Ogalla as the CNS, it was our own beloved brethren from the Southeast who accused him of being a "non Igbo speaking Igbo". None of us even knew that such a thing existed before the accusation was thrown up.
Emeka, are you really sure your enemies are external? Is it possible that they are internal?
Emeka, is it not possible that Bobrisky's is just a routine arrest of a person who violated the law and has nothing to do with the person's tribe, religion and gender? A similar thing happened to the more popular Funke Akindele.
Culturally, it is the Yoruba who spray Naira as a custom. If anyone is to be arrested on that score, it is more likely to be a Yoruba person. This is just pure mathematical probability.
Please fact-check me: one of the traits of the psychological disorder of narcissism is to constantly claim to be a victim, when, in fact, it is another person who is a victim. In this case, Bobrisky is the victim, but you, who have not been arrested, have instead dismissed him as a victim and taken that toga for yourself.
Anyway, thanks again and may God bless you and may God bless Ndi'Igbo.
A good example is the OP. He hated Asari for visiting Tinubu, but now he has been singing for joy all around Nairaland because Asari is now against Tinubu and Wike. Arse lickers
Emir is just title in Ilorin just like Oba is a title in Benin.
I agree that Oba of Lagos should return to Benin, he should join Oba of Benin there and both of them move to Ile-Ife where they both originally came from.
With this beef with the oba, I now believe the word 'oba' was originally Yoruba introduce to Benin when oranmiyan took over.
We might ask oba of Lagos and erelu kuti to return to Edo so they could from there return to Ife.
The concept of Ife is a place in the eastern Sahara and not Ile ife in osun state. The different wave of migration had the oduduwa coming from ife with his entourage to conquer and rename the city ile-ife.
You are correct. In ife today during the olojo festival. The coming of Oduduwa and usurping of Obatala is always re-enacted. There was nairaland thread of the event some years back.
babasolution: There is lazy system of history which the Yorubas are fund of .
They rely on only a limited source of written histories or tales and they rely totally and absolutely on these limited sources without question.
There are several and numerous researches even by Yoruba researchers on various Yoruba groups and neighbours, some are available online while some are only accessed via libraries.
In history studies all sides must be considered and conclusions are hardly made until authentic proofs are found.
What I have observed about Yoruba people is that they focus on few probably not well researched historic texts and jump to conclusions especially those that elevate the Yoruba status or claim other groups are derived from Yoruba.
This is a very unintelligent way of understanding history and origins what more from a people that claim to be intellectually advanced and sophisticated.
The popular claims of ile-ife origins of various nonyoruba groups have been severally debunked by independent researchers but they refuse to accept it.
Even within Yoruba itself ,various groups have different origin claims,eg the ijebu and parts of ondo and ekiti.
The Benin IFE relationship is dynamic and the claim of the ancestors of the oba of Benin being Yoruba is complex and cannot be as simple as the Oduduwa son ,oromiyan claim.
Some research as even faulted the claim that oromiyan founded Oyo.
There are modern books written that debunks alot of the IFE Oduduwa claims.
The fact is the Yorubas who were one of the earliest western educated groups in Nigeria propagated these ile-ife claims that elevated the Yoruba status among tribes,many other groups who received their early Western education later,in some cases via these Yoruba people unwittingly distorted their own history by picking their sources from the Yoruba documentation,modern research as debunked alot of these fake histories and claims by the Yoruba.
Akoko-edo is not Yoruba
All these lamentation.
Even the oba of Bini called himself som.of Oranmiyan and grandson of Oduduwa.
