In 1993, Nigeria only free, fair and transparent election, igbos from SS/SE voted heavily for MKO Abiola a yoruba man.

Though an Hausa man made sure he never claimed the presidency.

Yet no type of name these yorubas dont call us.

They tell us on a daily baisis that igbo can never rule.

They lied and voted GEJ out becos they were trying to hide power from igbos.

Yet fail to understand that they only became qualified in 1999 to be president by the sheer negotiation power of Southern Nigeria.

The same south they betray at the drop of a hat. Now they are running back to shout southern Nigeria.

A yoruba man can never win vote in the SS/SE again. Go and mark these words.

As long as igbos have not had their fair representation in the presidency, let us see how a yoruba will ever be president.

Buhari did not die as they planned and looks like he will recontest in 2019. The disappointment want to kill Tinubu.

waternogetenemy:
The average SS/SE man is preparing to vote Atiku/Obi and escape doom from Buhari.

Atiku so far has not put a foot wrong, he appears moderate and considerate.

If buhari resign who will succeed him?

confusion247:
First, I am happy that you agreed that their was abandoned property saga after the war. I am also happy that you said there wasn't an issue of such in yoruba land, but be informed that a yoruba man spearheaded the 20 pounds policy just to make sure igbos lose all the money they have in Nigerian banks before the war. My question to you is, if we have one Nigeria, is it right for you to forcefully take over the properties of other Nigerians?

Rhino5dm:
Nna i tire for those people o.

In portharcourt. All the ibos properties in mile 1, mile 2, mile 3, lagoa, town. . . . . . . And so many aother places is been occupied by this lazy set of people. In the name of "abandoned properties"

>>>An ibo spend's  most of his life and savings, confort and enjoyment. I.e sleeping in his shop, taking garri and groundnut as a staple food. Compromising his children's education. To acquire land under one of the most stringent condition ever known to man, all of a sudden only to called it abandone properties. Wicked people.

>>> i remeber then in porthacourt, when i was about to rent an apartment my landlord was very clear to tell me that


" i dont want an ibo man in my house"

after prompting for a reason for making such statement he said

"they always want to buy off everything"

further he said

"   in my comminuity we dont sell land to ibos"

but ironically i later found out that the ibos owns more than 70% of portharcourt.


The popular notion then before i left PHC is that they are waiting for another abandoned properties to happen, can you beleive this!


>>> give the locals slots for work in companies the CLO of that comminuity will sell it out and buy new jeep, marry a new wife.


>>> i have never seen lazy people like this set of people. Drink and chop, carry woman to hotel, buy a new jeep, run gerator 24/7. Shikenan!


>>> my ibo freind used to tell that this time around no ibo man is going to abandone his property, instead there will be

"Abandone comminuity"

very sympathetic indeed!

@Funmijoyb

Kwara has slipped past yoruba. Truth be told. Inasmuch as I am concern, yoruba is a relegated to a second citizen in Kwara.

Check back the list of 'Obas' you post. Jubril, Abdulraman, Aldulsalami, Abubakar and you still sit down on arms chair to claim yoruba in Fulani/Hausa infested land. A butter fly thinks himself a bird - Ola Rotimi

VomeSchakleton:
Do not short sell your people. Being a homo sapien is not a compliment, and saying another race isn't is not an insult If that's what it's meant to be. But it seems yorubas intermarry a lot with Igbos, igalas, Nupes... Fellow homo sapiens then?

Nowenuse:
Pls get my point.
I did not say all Ilorin people are not proud yorubas, what i said is that some of them are not proud yorubas.
It is a simple cases of identity crisis just as u find amongst the Niger-deltan Igbos, some of them are proud of their igbo ancestry while some others deny their igbo ancestry due to the fact that they have a greater parr of their ancestry from another tribe or it may just b as a result of political incidences in the past.
Ilroin people were conquered by Hausa-fulani jihadists, so it is a normal thing for them to loose a significant part of their culture and acquire some of their conquerors.

There are some ilorin indigenes that are proud of their yoruba ancestry/origin WHILE there are some who deny their yoruba origin regardless of any political reason. It is just a fact because i have come across many instances of such.

Bluetooth2:
Serious ?

PStacks:
If Dangote is sincere enough, i believe he should be paying more attention and interest to rail..

rail is far more cost efficient than plying trucks on our high ways..


it is gross act of irresponsibility to have federal government construct roads with hard earned tax payers money and have dangote alone ply over 10,000 trucks on road built by the government with tax payers money. Dangote is only taking liverage from the poor masses.. these truck are neusances to the roads and hazrds to the roads and in most cases reckless drivers.

Rail would do us more good in haulage instead of road, or better still, dangote can support the federal government initiative to have all federal government roads run on dualised 5 carriage xpress lanes so as to have special dedicated express lane carriers for trucks like we have in developed countries, not to hav trucks competing with vehicles on the tiny one way the government has bee able to provide how many years after independence..

that obajana road is a complete disaster, dangote is supposed to have taken responsibility for that road long before now.. the okene, lokoja road is a mad death trap, kabba-obajana road where all of dangote cements come from are no go areas.

the earlier we deal with ourselves with sincerity, the better for us as a Nation.

bigboss80s:
Very unfortunate. This shows that:
1. He has no interest in investing in the rail which means he will lobby to ground the rail which Goodluck Jonathan struggled to resuscitate.
2. Nigerian roads are doomed. No country's roads (least of all Nigerian) can survive the pounding they will get from this number of trucks. So more money goes into road rehabilitation which is only a temporary solution to a permanent problem.
Nigerians should NOT laud a truck production company. Not at this time in our national development.
RAIL should be the focus now.

Qelvin:
But what payback are we suffering sef? Nigerian presidency abi wetin? Who presidency epp...all the years wey Aboki don rule, their region is still a bedlam of chronic poverty, disease, and terrorism...surely not the El Dorado anyone would have envisaged from years of presidency...your yoruba people are still basking on stomach infrastructure and might never even smell presidency again cause after Buhari, another Aboki will take over...Obj was your last shot at executive power and we all know he was merely a stooge to appease the North whom he favored more! so when you talk about payback can you be more specific? It's not us suffering from Boko haram or hunger like we see in the South west today.

femarse:
my people perish because they lack knowledge OK


so many idiot here blaming the coup so many idiot who will never en a book and read for themselves to know what actually happen open their dirty mouth to blame those coup plotters

well for your information that coup of 1966 is the only justified coup in Nigeria
the only time real youth are not happy about the useless balewa govt and they do the necessary things
just so u know, the corruption u heard so much about today had been there since 1960 the NPC outstanding the AG in the West the wetie of 1964 and the govt behaving like nothing is happening the political misnomer of post 1964 election and for your information PAM and co are also corrupt element who enjoy been with the top politician and yes he tip ironsi but not in a way that it was narrated here his tipping of ironsi was the only reason ironsi also escape that fatal death
like I have always said don't read my command by Obasanjo read why we struck from adewale ademoyega then you wi understand the heart of those that plan the coup they are fellow young youth like me and you who see that the only way to clean the nation of this sillyness is clean up those top politician
if not that this world is spoilt pass repair ask yourself all this govt here and there how many of their Ward can ever attend a public school again ?
can u point to one public primary or secondary school that is near anything call standard ?
they are administrator for this institution yet there own kid can not attend the same institution they administer rather it's me and you that had to attend
ironsi was just so lucky to escape death and his escape alone was what dent the good plan those guys have for Nigerians
I salute them and I will forever respect them
I am Yoruba so forget the IBO ish
politicians have been corrupt since 1960 okotie ebo is an Igbo too and was shot without blinking of the eye
you only need to read "WHY WE STRUCK " And you will forget this useless narrative
Obasanjo write some nonsense in MY COMMAND he was well aware of these guy going staging coup but was in India by the time the coup took place he was friend to all the coup plotters and they share room at one point or the other but by December he left the country he never got to know the main plan so forget his shit
u can as well read madeibo book
so forget this three line narrative
get knowledge
all this mad senators govnor president honorable ....one way to end corruption is to o a clean sweep of them all at a go in just one night so the next person that wanna raise bill for election will think twice

Fedayeen02:
When they say Biafra your tribesmen leave the hot amala in the pot and run to Nairaland to tell us a thousand reasons why a United Nigeria is the best.


Ndi yoruba o gini na afio

LordVarys:
Ribadu, Dankwambo, Lamido, David Mark should start building their profile for the presidency now, Same for Peter Obi, Ekweremadu and Okonjo Iweala for VP.
Primaries are going to be fair and democratic.....The APC will likely field Elrufai who lacks Bubu's Northern popularity

2) MOST oil blocks (88%) are owned by foreign multinational companies, are you angry that Nigerians have a paltry 12% share in their country's oil and gas business?
3) Are you aware oil producing States get 13% derivatives, Ministry of Niger Delta ,amnesty deal and CSR from oil companies? In addition to lucrative pipelines protection contracts, oil bunkering and illegal refineries?

I think, what you guys should do is to collaborate with one another (all the who's who in the oil producing areas) and form your own companies, that can prospect for oil ,transform your illegal refineries to environmental friendly and efficient refineries that can meet the petroleum demands of Rivers, Bayelsa and Delta States, then watch how you guys will dominate the oil and gas sector of Nigeria's economy and nobody will contest it with you. Its easier to control things with less controversies in the private sector without government interference which will bring jealousy and poke nosing from other Nigerians.

When the oil spills it doesn't destroy the water in the North "naturally", when they flare gas it doesn't disturb the air in the North "naturally" but when it's time to own oil blocks, it becomes a natural endowment for "ONE NIGERIA".

Can you see how crazy you sound? Until Southerners start owning groundnut blocks in the North, Northerners should stay off Niger Delta "natural" resources.

anonimi:
Stating the lopsided realities of the FORCED union called Nigeria does not mean giving the southern RULERS a free pass. If you are not a newbie to NL you should know that the they get more than their fair share of criticism, constructive and otherwise. GEJ, Tinubu, Akala, Fashola, Gbenga Daniel, Rochas, Orji etc are not northern rulers, the last time I checked!
Taking Niger Delta oil money to Abuja for sharing when no one shared the proceeds of groundnuts and cotton in the 50s and 60s from the north is HYPOCRISY and cannot go on forever.
You can also not ban alcohol consumption in the name of HYPOCRITICAL sharia but have no qualms collecting and spending the VAT money on the same HARAM things from the PROSPEROUS southern states.
Without these revenue sources, northern Nigeria will be so impoverished like their cousins in Niger, Chad, Mali etc.

BTW, how many of the roads and buildings were constructed and MAINTAINED by northerners since most of them are content with being almajiris rather than going to school

quid:
ok.
So why are yorubas crying now?

TPAND:
**** Someone proved you guys wrong, you saying his childish. Had Dino not come to Lagos, they will all have been on Twitter saying, that's why he can't come to Lagos, Jagaban will treat his f'up.

Coward of a tribe: Dino has made a statement you can go ahead and your worse

Almajiri1:
No military battalion under the command of tinubu buhari APC government would disobey a standing order issued against Oloye dino not to venture into south west.

This is a coup and a rape on the territorial integrity of tinubu south west.

Otumba dino has shown he is half human and half spirit by this conquest of south west.

Nigeria needs a strong mental and physical man as dino to rescue her from this current economic woes.

Otumba Oloye dino for president!

Revolva:
Saraki iss ffrom a fulani tribe dat settled in ilorin...now I know...cos dis man ainta real yoruba...maybe his mum is yoruba dats where he got the yoruba name bukola

TRADEMARK:
That Bad Guy ,Bukola Saraki will shape or alter the political destiny of this Country henceforth.He stands in a very strategic position and would be a unifying factor for various dissenting groups who are already getting impatient and disappointed at the lies and deceit of the APC troubled government .He is Yoruba/Fulani and most people in the South West ,North Central ,North West and the rebellious Igbos and South South would have bias and Key into the Saraki Project just to spite Tinubu and his Cronies .If Saraki remain controversial and in the news consistently,he would be the major beneficiary of the envisaged breakdown and fall out of APC,I only hope he knows he is the last resort of the Nigeria populace and stand by the majority of the masses .Saraki is lesser evil than Tinubu and most people will agree with me .


NB
What is the agbero Up here trying to Prove with this photo Here ,and so ? MuMu

Chimezie250:
This is why the country is so backwards, a country where it citizens can not freely vie for national political post, what we should be interested, his qualifications, achievement, his plans and how to achieve it,unity of the Nation, Nigeria will never move forward when some tribe or citizens are been treated as a second class citizens, the govt in power may favour your tribe, do you know what the next one will do, one thing I m proud of, we will never set our region on fire or join other major tribe to intimidate the minority tribe,

CandyDiamond:
Since all this years that Nigeria have not produce an Igbo president, have Nigeria become paradise on earth or has Osun,Ondo,Borno,Sokoto,Zamfara etc becomes better than other states in Nigeria, if you hold other people down out of envy, you are also holding yourself down

BRAV0O:
Here's one of the problem we are facing as a country on a serious note if ibo's will not only benefit hope of producing president in nigeria one day, then no need to waste their time even if nigeria will not be able to trust them by giving them power the whole thing will not make sense at all because it will one day turn around that the case between ibos and nigeria will turn to case that nigeria being the oppressor! and it will not turn out well at all by the time whole world will be calling for nigeria head!!!
