We would not vote for anyone that is going to restructure Nigeria, case closed

tollyboy5:
Imagine the audacity, who are you?

They are a large collection of illiterates.

Even their leader Gani Adams became infamous, an illiterate. He later went to school as a grown adult.

Be careful when taking the advice of illiterates, that's why i can never support Igboho.

LegendHero:
I have a question for OPC.

You said what we Yorubas need is restructuring (100% correct). How exactly are you going to get it if you fail to support someone that have at least 60-70% chance of effecting the restructuring?

If you can’t support Tinubu/Osinbajo/Fashola etc publicly, then at least let us know who you’ll rather support coz to even get restructuring, the nation need to keep working and you will need to have a president that can at least support it to an extent.

Are Ona Kakanfo that doesn’t know how to be diplomatic as a leader. Even if the Northerners don’t like Atiku, they won’t come out and be talking like elenujawaya like this.

Oga diplomat, they dropped the name of your organisation that you were present at a meeting when you were actually not present there.

Will you keep quiet or voice out?

Where is the assurance that Tinubu and the other dogs are interested in restructuring?

Had Tinubu ever shown serious interest in restructuring other than paying lip service?

sokera:
only a Igbo person and yoruba bastards will believe or trust OPC under Gani Adams … OPC under Gani Adams and Afenifere are all working for PDP… Jagaban is our next president…

according to a foolish tinubu supporter..
premise 1- the only real and authentic Yoruba is one who support tinubu and his party.
premise 2- all other Yorubas who don't support tinubu and his party are bastards...
lol...omo oko and omo ale are now determined by party affiliation..
orisirisii

Like Afenifere like OPC. They are both PDP errand dogs, they follow nothing else but money.

but you can take the advice of tinubu the scammer who has turned Lagos to tinubu united fc..
a man determined to scam his way to the presidency using Yoruba people but has shown not to give a FCK about Yoruba people but his own inordinate ambition.. Lil

Dsalvo:
OPC is right with the quote below. Yet someone has to bell the Cat as Nigeria will not restructure herself. A resolute President is required to do it and I believe Tinubu or Osinbajo will.

In my opinion, OPC is merely seeking attention, and possibly flirting with the PDP, with this announcement because they can wait for clarification before making negative public statement that can create needless division in a vital Yoruba project.

A project that needs absolute unity, focus and for all Yorubas to pull their resources and might in the same direction.

We don't need attention-seeking rebels.

OPC just like IPOB are the militant wing of PDP

Have you forgotten the events of 2015 elections so soon? Gani Adams have never being able or even willing to mask his support for PDP,was that not why GEJ rewarded him with pipeline protection contract in the run-up to the 2015 elections when the nitwits shut down Ikorodu road to press for postponment of the election by 2weeks when it became obvious that PDP was headed to a woeful defeat?


Gani na their, PDP na paymaster. Dem be Papa and pickin disguising in public

israelmao:
Tinubu has not been forthright with the issue of restructuring and in some key moments which the issues or matters of urgent national importance and discourse cropped up he remained stony silent where and when people least expected.Osinbajo has been speaking with tact and finesse on some key issues that will ensure continuous existence,unity,progress of Nigeria even though he lacks power to make some things happen as a Vice President.Fayemi has not been that vocal on the burning issues in Nigeria.

So, to you words speak louder than action when many universally believe the opposite is true?

Why do you want to put so much importance on what Tinubu says or does not say when you have the living and breathing example of Lagos State as an embodiment of Tinubu's political/administrative leaning and socio-economic thinking?

Obama talked the talk yet his Presidency ultimately disappointed many.

Also, have you considered that Tinubu might be circumspect in speech because he know the nature of Nigerian politics that consists more of enemies of progress, willing to use anything against others, than productive reformers as Tinubu himself is?

Stooping to conquer is a golden tenet of life.

Look at Governor Buni who junkets around as APC coordinator rather than busy himself with the affairs of leading Yobe.

He is doing nada for Yobe and always talking and making snide remarks about a "strong man" hijacking APC.

Are those empty and failed/falling 'talkers' the sort we need or tried and tested Tinubu who showed exemplary and productive focus on the affairs of his State as Governor?

If we want talk then let us back loquacious FFK, always saying what people wanf to hear for personal profit, and ignore the crucial fact he failed in government office.

Meanwhile let us condemn and reject Tinubu for not talking and ignore the exemplary and universally lauded reality of how he transformed Lagos into the 6th biggest economy in Africa and Nigeria's only nation-State.

Does Tinubu need to be shouting about his beliefs when the direction he took Lagos in, and the successes he achieved, speak eloquently for him?

They will support whoever PDP present as their flag bearer because that's where their own money will come from. Lol. It is all about stomach infrastructure

oshigun and story writing.. some things don't change..even in a new year.. apoda

Dsalvo:
Well said brother. 2023 will indeed be sweet. It will separate the wheat from the chafe. We know the North do not want restructuring.

We also know Igbos are a confused people who are not advocates of good governance per se and will swing behind anything depending on what they have to gain.

They can reject restructuring at the drop of a hat if made a "cornerstone" (as GEJ described them) of Atiku's PDP Government.

It is the SW that needs restructuring vitally because the troubled years under Buhari and Jonathan has shown us that we may go down with other hopeless regions if we don't restructure to gain a system somewhat akin to regionalism.

Yorubas are in exactly the position that led Britain to Brexit. The comparative economic success of Britain made her the top destination for migrants from other EU States.

The Brexit vote simply confirmed that more Britons believed the nation needed to control her border, and the influx of those seeking a better life, to protect British people.

We cannot 'Yorubexit' from Nigeria. Yet as a proud and capable people , we now uncompromisingly want solutions that means we are able to use our talent and endowment to secure a better existence and future for Yorubas.

Believe me bro, this is all SW Yoruba intelligentsia now talk about everywhere I go and a political discussion ensues. It seems many Yorubas now see the situation as 'restructure or die'.

When the heat of the battle rages, I would really love to see, given the many negatives we Yorubas have suffered the most because of 'one Nigeria', the Yorubas amongst us who would dare work for the PDP Fulani candidate, indicating 'more of the same' for Yorubas and the SW, or try to sabotage an APC Yoruba.

I believe all this is 'demo' and ashawo runs by OPC. They will eventually be put in their place because Yoruba intellectuals, who believe it is their responsibility to agitate on behalf of even uneducated Yorubas in the the most remote Village, are not joking with restructuring, as an uncompromising demand on the next President, that will give us more control over our affairs.

We sprung behind Buhari because we believed he had the qualities and personal character to uncompromisingly push for it. Indeed Buhari has actually now proven to many Yorubas that Nigeria can never be restructured, benevolently for all, under a Northerner.

Most Yorubas now feel restructuring restructuring is something that is inevitable. It can be delayed but not denied. In fact this is the reason the OPC is using it to drive their personal agenda. They know restructuring, and changing the core nature of how Nigeria works, resonates strongly with every Yoruba today.

OPC will be shocked by the raw vehemence they will face over a goal many Yorubas now feel is bigger than the self-interest of any individual or group. Na me talk am.

All these long stories because you want someone to chop on your behalf.


You have the VP, the Speaker and "National Leader" we've not seen their might in helping Nigeria. What are their position on restructuring and what have they done so far.

What's their position on the killings and their economy. Look at the naira.


Fayemi was told there was no road to Ekiti and he laughed it off. Are they not in power?

All I see is just ethnicity at play.

Hmmm 2023 is around the corner

sapoyoro:

They're not in any position to portray themselves as being neutral. I don't care what your thoughts are about "Tinubu and his gang of thieves".

ScamHunter:
This is the first sensible word coming from the Yoruba nation. OPC may yet write their name in gold. I do not comprehend what is wrong with Africans. From Middle-belt to the core north, a group has been empowered with the license to kill at will and are progressively destroying native communities and these stupid people called Nigerians care all about sharing proceeds from crude oil in the guise of governance. It is only a matter of time before all of Yorubaland becomes another Ilorin and their stupid politicians care all about going to Aso rock to steal money. While their tribesmen who wouldn't even benefit anything apart from "na my tribeman's turn to steal" hype them. Kudos to OPC. I hope you guys aren't singing a discordant tone because you want to be ''settled'' because this coming from you guys is surprising. Let me add that it's refreshing to see Yoruba group not acting deceitfully like the rest of their people. Reminds me of that Yinka Odumakin, the late Afenifere spokesman, one of the only two Yoruba men I respect. One dead, one alive.

All the response castigating OPC is from APC members and their hired media guys that are working for their paymaster.

Can Nigeria move forward without proper restructuring? Capital NO is the answer.

Any newly elected President cannot be different from all the past President. Greediness, corruption and self ambition which they have all be known for will not allow them to give us good governance.

Until we regionalise we are going nowhere just as have not made any progress under this government and no right thinking Nigerian will support the Country to continue like this under this foited

Are you serious? If you know what restructing is then you will know lagos, by far, and of all Nigerian States, exemplifies it the most courtesy of Tinubu's socio-economic thinking.

Let me give you a few examples. Tinubu in office deliberately pursued aggressive IGR increase so Lagos focuses more on it own endowment to sustain herself rather than remain addicted to Abuja handout.

What exaxtly do you think that is? Skelewu dance?

Tinubu is the Nigerian pioneer of PPP (private public sector partnership) to fund the delivery of critical infrastructure rather than indolently waiting on limited FG allocation for that purpose.

Tinubu also delivered the first IPP, independent power plant, in his effort to ensure Lagos gains better power supply bypassing the incompetence of the federal government and it national power grid.

Abeg Professor, explain to us your student what all that is.

I will never understand why Nigerians readily make statements , that is the opposite of factual reality, to back their stance when they can easily tell the truth .

Just say you dont want Tinubu and leave it at that. Don't go over the top trying to represent him as something/someone his career and achievements show he is the direct oppostie of. That is dishonest and does not speak well of you. Even your worst enemy you must never lie against if principled and upright.

To claim Tinubu is not interested in restructuring is bullcrap and you know it. He may not be shouting restructuring from the roof top, as deceptive politician with nothing to offer do, but action always speaks louder than word.

Tinubu's historical leadedship actions shows he will restructure Nigeria no doubt.

What does OPC has to do with politics, I beg go and sit down

Show clear evidences of how Tinubu pioneered PPP and IPP in Nigeria

Omoboricash:
Have u forgotten how OPC publicly supported PDP in 2015 and 2019 general election. Prior to 2015 election OPC was awarded pipelines surveillance contract worth billions of naira.
Gani Adams and Tompolo of Niger deltal militant got the contract. Opc started destroying Apc poster in lagos. Tinubu suddenly became OPC enemy.
So im not surprised if OPC did not support Any of Yoruba aspirant from apc. OPC and afenifere are wings of pdp.

The question is, between the party OPC supported 2015 and 2019 and the buhari party/govt you supported 2015 and 2019,who has brought more untold disaster and hardship and hunger and poverty to the people?

Listen to yourself. Are you making sense? If we cannot restructure Nigeria unless a President backs it then is it not obvious we have no choice but to keep changing Presidents until we get one who will?


Let's even indulge your argument. Forget 2023 for a minute. This challenge is for you and the facetious OPC you are supporting.

Given Buhari is flatly against restructuring, present a feasible plan here and now for how Nigeria can be restructured today.

Don't just give us the APC is this and that crap. Tell us precisely how we restructure so we see your sincerity and depth of understanding instead of concluding you are simply another deceptive 'concerned party', like OPC, with a hidden private agenda.

Delivering attractive rhetoric like "until we regionalise we are going nowhere", without telling us precisely how we "regionalise", is disingenuous.

Even if he suggests one,you and your ilks are still gonna condemn him as long as it's not coming from the stables you expect.
OPC just did and here you are,so what else do you need?
You yourself, what's your own plan, cos you've been talking,what's the way forward as regards restructuring?

Agba kii fi gbogbo enu s'oro

That's my concern exactly. Why coming online to ridicle your own when others are pampering their own..

I don't like Adams version of OPC because of his betrayal tactics but in Nigeria context, OPC is a necessity tool in as much as North had BH& Bandits, SE has IPOB and SS has militant. Even SW Agbero is also necessary tool to balance Nigeria madness.

There some issues that just require silence

If your so called nationalist,tinubu,feels very ok and comfortable that in his APC government,there ain't no south eastern representation at the helms of affairs in the presidency, the senate and House of representatives and even the judiciary then I wonder...also for 8 years running, buhari sidelined the easterners from his service chiefs!!!!

Obvious you are a mischief-maker with his own private agenda. What solution exactly does it appear OPC suggested from what they said below?

“Even if an angel emerges the president of this nation today, without restructuring, nothing will change for the better.

“Our position on the future of Nigeria is clearly stated in our belief in restructuring. That is why we root for regionalism as the best option for peace and stability.”

Have they told us how we will gain regionalism knowing we have a constitution that will need to be amended to facilitate it and make it legally binding and implementable?

Many are too smart to be taken in by the empty rhetoric of OPC that hides the nefarious agenda of it's leading members.

Gani Adams is now the embodiment of integrity, and your hero, when he is the same person who accepted pipeline protection contract from the GEJ government, a bribe to keep a desperate Jonathan in power, before the 2015 election? Just because he is offering meaningless rhetoric against those you hate?

Per you question about my plan, I already made myself clear.

If we cannot restructure Nigeria unless a President backs it then is it not obvious we have no choice but to keep changing Presidents until we get one who will?

Nigeria has a constitution. The executive arm (the Presidency) must work with the legislative arm to secure the necessary amendment that can restructure Nigeria legally.

Why is OPC then talking as if ignorant of this simple fact? Are they all illiterates? Why speak against SW Presidential candidates, most likely to deliver restructuring because of the regions current negative experience with 'one Nigeria, when the discord that dissenting voices in the SW causes can only benefit PDP that will never restructure Nigeria in a million years?

This coming from OPC, led by PDP manservant called Gani Adams, makes sense to you ba?
Myopic Southerners like you will continue to be the problem of the South.

Abeg, "omo Igbo", take this elsewhere. Your Igbo-centric rant and ethnic jingoism is not needed here. This is about OPC, like illiterates, suggesting we use a car without wheels to reach a destination 100 kilometers away.

I am still challenging you and OPC to tell us how we restructure, and go back to regionalism, without constitutional amendment a President needs to support officially as head of the executive arm.

Why do you think virtually all Yoruba leaders, with some razor-sharp intellectuals, are desperate for a Yoruba Presidency while OPC alone is now coming out with this "sabo" stance?

Stop supporting what is obviously wrong because it is done against those you dislike. Your main issue is that there appears to be disunity in the camp of the Yorubas.

That is why you speak in support of the idiocy of OPC here and not because you give a toss about restructuring or Nigeria even.

The problem of the south are those Omo ales who brought the worst ethnic northerner to power 2015 against a fellow southerner simply cos they stupidly believed GEJ was serving the interest of the east.
God will surely judge the real enemies among us southerners.

You open your mouth a D say the north will never do such public thing to their own,very true but you people are the best at that.
As bad as buhari is,the north will never vote against him for a southerner!
What is your public stand against Afenifere?
Gej gave contract to OPC,is that a bad thing?
And you people still go about saying Gej never did anything for the yorubas!
Gej did,you condemned him. He didn't do,you condemned him.
You people don't even know what is pinching your arsses
