Does Peter Obi Support Prove Yorubas Are Naive? by MrMaestro: 5:07pm On Oct 07, 2021
I’m just sitting here wondering about the Peter Obi scandal. Not declaring all of your assets before getting into office is a crime. Period. And it’s quite clear that every Igbo on earth is making excuses and supporting this man. But my question is, when did Yorubas become so naive, and so traitorous?!? The Northerners have shown that they will NEVER turn on their own powerful politicians no matter what crime they do. The Igbos have shown they will NEVER turn on their own powerful politicians no matter what they do.

So why is it only Yorubas performing SOPHISTICATED slowpoke AND BEING TRAITORS to other Yorubas by throwing Tinubu, Sanwo Olu under the bus? And when did this start? Does anyone have an answer?

On Obi, it is clearly against the law to hold office without declaring all of your assets. Because when you DECLARE it, the government can ensure you are not using your position to give your business more money. If it is undeclared, how can it be tracked. But regardless, stealing or not, not declaring it before taking office is a crime. Just see the people below making excuses for this crime boldly and shamelessly.

First of all, there’s no tribe that holds their corrupt politicians to task like Yorubas. The thing now is that people have begun to fabricate corruption and criminal charges on people like Tinubu/ Sanwo Olu with ZERO evidence or proof. And Yorubas are busy swallowing it like chicken. Meanwhile you have investigative journalism PROVING Obi committed a crime, he even admitted to having a business overseas to evade tax and not declaring it while in office (which is a crime), and igbos are boldly saying he’s innocent. There’s a difference between the two.

@MrMaestro: You see the Yorubas that are kissing ibo azzes, especially on social media, are doing so for optics; to appear 'woke', sophisticated, and detribalized. Not realizing that ibos no send them; ibos will only like you if they feel they can intimidate and dominate you. These yorubas know quite well that 'saint Obi' is no different than any other Nigerian politician, but they're blinded by a want for validation. Tinubu has helped more Ibos than Obi has cared to help yorubas, but none of that matters because there's an agenda to demarket him in order to elevate ibos like Obi. The same Obi that is a renowned bigot and ibo supremacist. It is what it is.

You are right ,i just pity some foolish Yorubas that dedicate their entire lifetime to attack tinubu just to please other tribes .Meanwhile this was the same thing some dumb Yorubas were doing for awolowo back in the days ,they said he wont be president ,and busy attacking him .I still pity for some Yorubas that are blind to see that Fulanis and igbos are their enemies.Igbos will protect their criminal leaders from backlashing like Orji kalu and peter obi and curse and abuse Yoruba leaders ,just like how they killed Ladoke akintola and left their own premier in 1966.Same with fulani who will always protect their criminal leaders .But foolish Yorubas ,will call other tribes to join them in attacking their own leaders

Someone like seun osewa also needs to answer this question.

But let me play the the devil's advocate and answer the question.

OP, despite our many flaws as yorubas we believe alot in democracy and an egalitarian society, it's why the British hated Yoruba's so much.. we were too uppity for them, it's why we have more civil rights activists compared to other regions, it's why the egbas rebelled against my ibadan ancestors, it's why we have Fela, falana, Joe odumakin and the likes.....On the other hand you can't deny the existence of self serving yorubas who are naturally sycophants and asskissers who either do it for clout, or material gain.
And there are those who also do it for sentimental and emotional reasons(my mama na igbo, I am half fulani)
And there are those who are more loyal to political party than their tribe.

It goes both ways, some Yoruba's would join abokis to bad mouth a Sunday Igboho who is their fellow Yoruba and come back to complain when equally foolish Yorubas like them bad mouth tinubu with the nyamiris

Let the Anti corruption agencies in Nigeria swing into action and persecute Peter Obi of he has committed any crim. Not you disturbing is online.


All I see here is a staunch Tinubu fanatic trying to emotionally blackmail other well meaning yorubas into supporting Tinubu and Sanwo Olu who both supported the Buhari in opening fire on armless yoruba youths

I see some stupid idiot Yoruba's now talking about south west agenda/ SWAGA or suwegbe but were active critcs of Sunday Igboho mocking him for Yoruba nation.... I'd say it's far worse with SW BMC dullards who sometimes make me wish that SW isn't given presidency for the treachery they display online......you can sell your self out but never sell your people out....I have great disregard and disrespect for such people and actively take mental notes of such individuals to ensure not to relate or do any form of business with them.

The one's usually supporting nyamiris are usually largely politically ignorant and emotional. Their excuse is either "I grew up with igbos" "I am married to Igbo" or just social media bandwagon effect (usually on Twitter) or probably because some religious bias. Unfortunately some others can also give the same excuse of growing up with fulanis or ghanaians. The group that usually gives excuses like these are usually the young ignorant ones.

But OP....at the end of the day, on the flip side of things.

Look at which region has experienced more peace compared to other regions in Nigeria.

North is dealing with banditry and terrorism.

South east is dealing with unknown gunmen and ipob.

South south just finished dealing with militancy not so long ago.

With all their clannishness and agenda what has it brought them except for sorrow, pain and tears. The only downside is the increased in flow of economic migrants into our region. Yorubas just need to learn how to balance the liberalism and conservatism, be more logical, politically aware and tribally conscious.

You are right.

Then they start shouting tomorrow about Fulanization and continue to still blame the same Tinubu for every wrongs bedeviling they SW.

Then they will be shouting Osinbajo Osinbajo while killing Tinubu. How do you even get Osinbajo to power when Tinubu lose influence? But the kill him liberal don’t have that foresight, their own is to just act the script other people make them act without knowing.

This thread is a stupid attempt by Ovamboland and his ilks to shove Tinubu down the throats of well meaning yorubas through emotional blackmail.


Making reference to the Tofa and Abiola election in which most of us here werent even born then or old enough to vote. Let me remind you that as recently as 1998 and 2003, Igbo voted Obasanjo, a yoruba man, massively over Alex Ekweme and even Ojukwu.

The funny thing is that this same issue of Ojukwu losing to OBJ in the East, when it suits you, you will use it to make fun of Ojukwu, like two faced snakes that you have been know for

Do you mean I mocked Sunday Igboho or why exactly are you quoting me?

I support Tinubu and I support Sunday Igboho too. So maybe you might want to direct this mention to someone else.

Yorubas in Oyo and Ondo state out of stupidity want to have Atiku as president and replace Osinbajo with Obi, this is something Ibo has never done for Yoruba since world history.

Even during June 12 elections, MKO Abiola lost the SE to Tofa of Kano at a time Kano people voted for Abiola.
Shows the kind of mindset SE people have for Yoruba.

If the hands of Ibo should set on Artillery, they won't hesitate to level Lagos let every region go back to the same level.

Last time I checked the governor of Ondo state is an APC party man, and ''constituted authority" of blessed memory who was the former governor was also an APC man before he ruined the image of the party in Oyo state. I suspect you're an APC Northerner who is expecting absolute support for APC.

Only dumb Yoruba don't know that Igboho represent a Yoruba political tendency envious of Tinubu political success and will rather support Fulani or Ibo candidate against Tinubu or any of his associates in any elections.

That's why Arewa or Ohaneze will always support their tribesman to have advantage while only Afenifere is supporting candidate of other faraway tribes when their own fellow Yoruba are at last lap of easily clinching the presidency.

Only Dumbo's think there's a real plan for a Yoruba nation, even the old man leading the fringe campaign will be shocked at the manner he was used for high stakes politics with the snatching of his project by thugs representing Yoruba political class out of power.

How many northern states were able to rightly divide local issues by voting different parties at state and federal level? Who is supposed to be sophisticated in politics? Even if you have issues with Ajimobi because he talks too much not that he failed to perform, why on earth will you want to replace Osinbajo with Obi in Aso Rock? What exactly will Obi do for Oyo or larger SW that Osinbajo will not or has not given?
That's shallow thinking and emotional voting that even illiterate northern voters are starting to overcome by the ability to switch between local issues and strategic group interest.

Every region positions to take central power, how really does making Obi VP or Atiku president in 2019 help SW move closer or take power in 2023? Maybe you can explain.

This is the power that ibo have now started killing themselves including Ibo professors over. That's what sophisticated Yoruba want to throw away because Ajimobi now late, spoke in a lousy manner.

You might say herdsmen, will getting farther away from power make solutions come faster? Will giving it to Ibo make SW a priority to protect SW? Make it make sense.
