Grv’s Only Sin, And The Hypocrisy Of The Yoruba Nation by Vado2(op): 9:27pm On Mar 20, 2023
.A son of the soil Omo-Eko, GRV has being denied of a Governorship seat, and being accused of being an omo-ale on the grounds that his mother is Ibo, among a number of other things. Yet, the fact remains that he questioned the “structure”, which is what stoked the tribal sentiments against him. Even individuals of little Yoruba descent have existed. James Faleke, a native of Kogi state, holds an office there and even uses funds from Lagos state to support his gubernatorial bids. The use of Lagos resources to fund an ambition, thats not even part of the a state southwest, and has not anytime be mentioned by any Yoruba leaders that I have seen.


They waged a campaign of slander against him, paid influencers to spread false information about him, and even included all the non-Yoruba tribes in the conflict, as they always do during any election cycle, simply because he dared to oppose the powers that be. Any candidate that’s against their structure they turn into an Ibo candidate.


Also, the horrible evil seed that this election has sown has been planted. These men are unaware that they have damaged the reputation of our country. Hahahha


And for the Yorubas who claim they are not involved in the local politics of others, just look at how they have transformed Peckham, England, into another Lagos, complete with churches, mosques, and private establishments. They even have two elected representatives in the house, and the Anglo-Saxons haven't retaliated against you or claimed you are encroaching on their territory, or you will soon claim there or don’t you think you’re disrupting another man’s local politics by getting elected into his parliament when you’re not even from there??

If you're go to Peckham, you'll believe it to be another Yoruba state. What makes you feel so uneasy around other southern clans?? Same reason why you folks portrayed Good-luck Jonathan as deserving of contempt because he came from a minority southern clan .

This isn’t even able the Ibos, but the subjugation of other southern clans. You will be able to grasp what I'm implying in the upcoming months, SS brothers.

Abdullahi Chinedu Akpan Okpanachi Gbadebo Rhodesvivour is a thief.

Let him contest Presidency in 2027 with the names given above.

He will still lose. You think we don't know their plan to loot Lagos Treasury to go and sort their lives in the East.

*Boycott Census in Lagos.*

Lagos is about 20million people.
By Law, more seats are allocated to states like Lagos in the house of Reps due to their large population...this population is made up of those of us who have been violently prevented from voting...we were told we are not Lagosians, we were told to go back to where we come from.

....And we have accepted.

Come May 2023, there will be another national Census and we won't allow ourselves to be counted as Lagosians.

We must "respect our hosts" and return to our states of origin to be counted. Or refuse to be counted as Lagosians.

You can't accept our population and Reject our votes.

The grouse of people against GRV is more complicated than most of you trying to make it. He is not the first politician in the SW whose mother/father is from other tribes. Governor Adeleke's mother was pure Igbo and he also speaks Igbo very fluently. Yet, people still voted for him as governor in Osun, a state that is a lot more conservative than Lagos. Governor Akeredolu's wife is pure Igbo and she has functioned well as the first lady.

I tend to see people who believed that GRV was not elected mainly because of his Igbo ancestry as tribalistic themselves, because they are selective in what they choose to see. They ignore Adeleke, Akeredolu and some prominent Yoruba people who stood by Obi's campaign.

What you should know is that if LP presented an pure Yoruba candidate, people would still have voted against that candidate. Rightly or wrongly, some Yoruba people see Peter Obi actively campaigning for a candidate in Lagos as an overreach. They believe Sanwo-olu was not performing badly too.

Another point is that GRV also has a history of making snide remarks about Yoruba people. It's all over the place. Internet never forgets. This makes some people to even doubt if he had any Yoruba heritage.

The election has come and gone, let's move on. Having seen all that has transpired from on all social media platforms. I can confidently say that people of all ethnic groups contributed to this bad atmosphere we have now. It would be insincere, tribalistic and hypocrital for any group to point fingers at another.

It seems you're obsessed with Yoruba but you lack basic Yoruba knowledge.
Who said Hon. Faleke from Kogi is not Yoruba?

You're a fool.
