That’s the same thing they are doing to Tinubu

The same thing they did to Obasanjo, a Yoruba man by massively voting him twice against all other Igbo contestants.

Efulefu

So the yorubas who were not even born when the stone Awolowo 100 years ago will use it as an excuse not to vote for a man that will change their life for good and reduce their suffering. Is only a person who has nothing to offer or who is not qualified will be looking for excuse to discredit a well accepted man. I thought APC said Nigerians should vote on competent and merit not base on religion or tribalism so why have they gone back to bring what happened 100 years ago is really a pity and it shows that some people don't ever want this country to move forward and they derive joy when innocent people are being killed and suffer cus of our wicked and selfish leaders. Either we get it right 2023 or it get worst and scatter finally.

Front page material

See the sensational headline they gave it.#


They won't highlight this part of his statement. ''According to him, Awolowo once told him during his lifetime, “No, you must work with the Igbo because you cannot defeat these Fulani people alone”.

Awo insisted according to this article that Yoruba's need Igbos despite the incident but they want to ridicule and misinterpret what the old man is saying

The MODs are actively looking for anything that favours a certain candidate.

I posted many pictures of the Labour party conference holding in Abuja today.

2 MODs read it and moved on

This will hit front page in no time

Dear Ipobian, assuming you had a brain, you would have known that the statement above showed that Awo was a man with a big heart. Despite getting attacked by your fathers, he still wanted them. I won’t say he did it out of sheer benevolence tho, that’s what we call diplomacy and that diplomatic, gentleman acumen and character, my guy, is alien to alaigbo

Morphinne:
That is why we call them children of hate and perdition. No be today e start. Imagine the Yorubas stoning the great Zik it’s just not in our culture.
Indeed, apple doesn't fall far from the tree.

I ve seen Jakande stoned , on a visit to Lagos, that I saw with my own eyes.

People of substance states points that are meaningful to the times to
douse foolish tension.

ChukwuObe:
Trust me, not Igbo. No Igbo will be allowed to precide the affairs of this nation. You can hold on to your biafra but never our haters

rich of you to assume you have a say or choice in the matter. 2023 isn't far small boy. Your tears will.be premium grade.

Did you see this part of that statement. According to him, Awolowo once told him during his lifetime, “No, you must work with the Igbo because you cannot defeat these Fulani people alone”. I bet you didn't read the instruction of AWO to the elderstates man because your heart is full of evil hatred

You can go to Anambra and burn buses. but if they catch you, you will be killed. The guy you have in court that burnt BRT buses may be innocent but it won't serve the narrative people like you would want to hear if the news came out and it was one Oluwole, hence, they have arrested one innocent Igbo man. Was there CCTV or any evidence to prove beyond doubt that the man burnt those buses.

Igbira boys moved from Kogi state and killed over 50 Yoruba indegenes in a church, You and your leaders are quiet because its not Igbo that did it. If a single Igbo man was on that list people like you would have been venting.

chill, Igbos are people you don't know what to do to. They are like wind. everywhere. you can't trap them.

Did you read the names of those people that died before this ya conclusion

Chidex50:
I want to ask BAT supporters and media handlers,if you end of dividing these country with your antics,what will be left of it? And you're campaigning to govern the whole Country. Can't you have an issue based campaign rather than politics of bitterness and wickedness? The country is so sick and you all are busy speedily sending it to the grave.

Have you IPOBians ever stopped attempting to divide Nigerians along ethnic, religious and sectional lines?

Look at even your leaders doing so shamelessly, on behalf of Obi, this very moment and you are still attempting cheap deception. Only mumu Yorubas will fall for your deciet.

Omoale ni e,Truth is bitter.The baba has said things how it happened.The truth
This same Baba supported Obi Presidency because he's Igbo
I support Obi also.but until the campaign start.if Tinubu can't freely campaign in the east without any problem..Then to your tent everybody..break Nigeria
Clearly I wont vote for Tinubu.if not for age.And how he kept silent to the cry of the people under this regime.He's far better

Unfortunately, Tinubu will never be the president of Nigeria. Maybe of Oduduwa Republic, that's if they will allow him get that. The Yoruba's are too sophisticated for such a criminal.

Likewise Peter obi

This is for some of the sophistico Yoruba youth that fell for the antics of Ibo people that always say they hate Tinubu not because he’s Yoruba and bla bla bla.

Awolowo was stoned when he went to the East to campaign back then and this is Pa Adebanjo the same Afenifere guy laying claim to that. Is Awolowo also a bad person like Tinubu according to the Ibos? Or why was he stoned?

Azikiwe campaigned easily in the SW but Awo was stoned in the SE for campaigning.

That’s the same thing they are doing to Tinubu. They are making sure he won’t be able to campaign in the SE, where they term any Igbo that support Tinubu as efulefu and always cancel them.

Yet the same people want to be left alone to campaign in the SW while some Yoruba guys with severe confusionists complex will be sheering them on.

The Yoruba are the only tribe in this country without tribal consciousness and it is as tho something is wrong.

So why did Thiefnuibu's Oba of Lagos threaten to sink Igbos in the lagoon over APC matter in 2015 if all these things you said are true

godsboy4eva:
Igbos living in Lagos were told on Sunday to vote for the governorship candidate of the All Progressives Congress (APC), Mr. Akinwumi Ambode, or else they will die in the lagoon.

A visibly angry Oba of Lagos, Rilwan Akiolu, in an unconcealed threat, stated that he was not ready to beg the Igbos, but if they repeated what they did on March 28 when they voted for the presidential candidate of the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP), President Goodluck Jonathan, then they should be ready for the consequences.

The governorship elections are scheduled to hold on Saturday, and it is believed that Igbo residents in Lagos will vote for the PDP candidate, Jimi Agbaje, just like they did during the presidential and National Assembly elections that led to the victory of PDP candidates of Igbo origin and from Delta State in three federal constituencies in Lagos.

The victory of the non-indigenes of Lagos, THISDAY gathered, has not gone down well with the Lagos chapter of the APC.

Speaking at a meeting with Igbo leaders in the state, according to an online news medium, Freedom Online, the first class monarch, who failed to recognise the cosmopolitan nature of Lagos, said: “On Saturday, if anyone of you goes against Ambode who I picked, that is your end. If it doesn’t happen within seven days, just know that I am a bastard and it is not my father who gave birth to me.

“Jonathan is my son and I speak to him everyday. By the grace of God, I am the owner of Lagos for the time being. This is an undivided chair. The palace belongs to the dead and those coming in the future.

“On Saturday, if anyone of you, I swear in the name of God, goes against my wish that Ambode will be the next governor of Lagos State, the person is going to die inside this water.

“I’m not ready to beg you. Nobody knew how I picked Ambode. Jimi (Agbaje) is my blood relation and I told him that he cannot be governor in Lagos for now. The future belongs to God. I am not begging anybody, but what you people cannot do in Onitsha, Aba or anywhere, don’t do it here.

“If you do what I want, Lagos will continue to be prosperous for you. If you go against my wish, you will perish in the water.”

The monarch said anybody against Ambode did not wish the state well, adding, “I am for the progress, growth and development of Lagos. Ambode is highly cerebral, he’s a symbol and he is going to deliver the message which I, the Oba of Lagos, have said. And he will govern the state for another eight years.

“He is going on a mission and God will give him the wisdom and knowledge to fulfill that mission. Almost a year ago, I declared that Ambode will be the next governor of Lagos and it will not change.

“From time immemorial, the previous occupiers of this house will say what they wanted after consultations with other people. And this hasn’t changed and it will not change at this time,” he said.

In a veiled reference to one of Jonathan’s predecessors, Akiolu stated that the crisis Nigeria was facing was not caused by the Jonathan administration but by another person he refused to name.

Continuing with his tirade, he said: “If not for the appeal from Asiwaju (Bola Tinubu) and my highly respected maternal father, the Awujale of Ijebu-Ode, all what is happening today is not the cause of the present government. The man who caused everything knows himself.”

Check the Igbo well, before now, the media space is all about IPOB and Nigeria is a zoo.

As soon as Obi got the ticket, they all switched mouth and started campaigning massively for Peter Obi and started tagging anyone that speak against them an efulefu and cancelling them.

But the same Igbo will attack a Yoruba supporting Tibubu by calling them tribalists and yet over 99% of them are always speaking in support of Peter Obi.

But some Yoruba lack self awareness, they are being gaslighted and used by the Igbos and forming woke on social media and getting guilt tripped.

As a Yoruba, you can support Peter Obi, Atiku, or Kwakwanso but if the reason you are supporting any of these guys is due to the gaslighting by other tribe , then you are foolish.

You're very correct on this, some gullible one among the Yorubas falling to their religion and youthfulness card,

meanwhile they continue derogatory words against the personality of Tinubu.

Yoruba ronu.

Obi that couldn't reduce the suffering of Anambra people is the one you think will reduce the suffering of Nigerians. I laugh.

I think this guy's should let igbo nation be ..........
Send ibos back to their place to form their own nation ...
Afenifere Sir please stop apologizing to them

The man is having partial dementia.
His memories have gone turpsy-turbo.
Chief Awolowo was stoned at the Enyimba City in 1978.
That was eight years after the Biafran War.
The stoning of Chief Awolowo in Aba was a lesser act of bravery on the part of Aba residents.
The higher act of courage would have been to shoot him dead.
He dared come to Aba to campaign for the votes of the same Biafrans against whom he initiated a policy of starvation and blockade leading to the death of millions of women and children (non combatants)
Aba was boiling and waiting.
As soon as Chief Awolowo's helicopter touched the ground he was received warmly with a hail of stones from all directions. His pilot quickly took off again.
Awolowo did not campaign in Aba.
Neither was he injured in the melee that happened when his helicopter landed.
A mass murderer of Biafran children came to Biafraland barely eight years after the genocidal war to ask for votes, even with the abandoned property policy victims yet to find settled life, even after seizing every Igbo money in Nigerian banks and dashing them a measly 20 pounds! Such audacity of insult!

butterfly777:
This OBIdient movement is so strong and ethnic sentiment can't even reduce the momentum. E no go werk.

Everyone of us can remember how we once had fights with our own brothers and sisters and even friends. But it doesn't make us eternal enemies, we resolve and move on. It is part of life.

Now, regardless of our past differences, Hausa, Igbos and Yorubas, and other tribes in Nigeria have risen above the pettiness of tribal sentiment to vote out the wicked party and reject those who want to continue the maladministration where Buhari stopped.

God forbid bad thing.

Omo Yoruba ni mi. Mo fe'ran Omo nna.

Deception. FAKE yoruba sighted.

aribisala0:
The official Ibo position is that if it comes to crunch and a Yoruba person is likely to win instead of one of their one then it should stay with the Fulani
They are very entitled to hold that view and the Yoruba are also entitled to an appropriate response
The Yorubas should know that as far as they are concerned

The Ibo
Plan A is Obi
Plan B is Atiku
The Ibo are asking Yoruba to make Obi Plan A

that is Ibo sense for you

Well said.

In 2015, Yorubas give Igbos 3 House of Rep seats in Lagos as well as House of Assembly seats. How did Igbos pay back? Insulting Yorubas and calling Yorubas cowards, this and that.
2019, all seats were promptly collected back by Yorubas.

Yorubas are tribalistic. Yes.
You can go to hell.

Ipob did this same nonsense to Kumuyi. Your brothers banned Tinubu from campaigning in Igboland.
We didn't even know your fathers had stoned Awo.

trutharena:
Are you ashamed of those that stoned Awolowo?

Are you ashamed that your progenitors stoned Awolowo during campaign and that your current generation swore to do the same to Tinubu?

I don’t blame you guys, I only blame the Yorubas sophistico with no ethnic consciousness among us.

Imagine an Ibo boy arrested today for burning BRT in Lagos. He left his region to Lagos to burn our buses and yet Yoruba won’t speak up.

What has happened to the Yoruba for heaven sake? Can I go to Anambra to burn public buses and come back to Lagos alive?

No!
Igbo's will make sure you goes six feet below and dump u in a river or pit. I like the Igbo's but they are just who they are and that is why they are still struggling and fighting for years. They needs to look inward and fix themselves instead of blaming others . like we know. Every human need to take responsibility for their actions

F4ku:
Don't mind the bast3d OP..

Infact he invariably brought up more disdain towards their Principle..
Now the Question is why didn't Awolowo declare A Yoruba Independence Immediately after Ojukwu did?

Because if he had, there is no way the Fulanis would have gone to war against the 2 regions at the same time. It would have been recipe for disaster to them.
Infact the Fulani would have lost the war even before it started.

It's a pure fact that Awolowo never wanted the disintegration of Nigeria, rather he wanted to be seen as a peace maker, unifier, messiah.
Just to fulfill his selfish Ambition to be president.

Awolowo is not zombie...so face your zombidend

Yoruba will regret helping any ibo man into power, just like they're regreting apc/buhari government. The hand writing is on the wall already. What Fulani is doing now would be a child's play on what is coming on yorubas in this country with ibo man in corridors of power. We had a glimpse of it during GEJ.. Our best bet is secession. This is not about tribalism, but a plain fact.
