There was no election in 2003. OBJ just allocated votes.
How do you expect someone that was born in 1998 to have cleared picture of what transpired in 2003 election.

I still don't know how Obasanjo of all people can be so loved by igbos and Soyinka is so hated.
After all Obasanjo did to their forefathers!

It’s the Yoruba Muslims that are the noisy ones. The Yoruba Christians are quite sensible, the only issue with them is they are too docile, too quiet. Soon, one might start thinking all Yorubas are Muslims cos the Christians amongst them are too quiet. It’s exactly what happened in the north.

Yoruba Muslims are the problem!!!

Yen yen yen! Even the famous "Yes daddy" couldn't help your obi, so I suggest you quit trying this exercise in futility. Ekiti state, a Christian dominated state voted for Tinubu while Osun state voted Atiku. The Yorubas are not like you, they are not driven by genetically ingrained hatreds passed on to offsprings via tales by moonlight at various village squares. By now, you should know that Religion is our strength and not weakness.

They are victims of their own emotions and warped self-awareness. They naturally hates anyone or anything they can't conquered

Who are "they"?... Show your bigoted head and stop cowardly throwing side jabs ... You know you want to say it so let me help you, by they are you referring to Yorubas ?

Ok .... yes we ignored Obasanjo what did you expect ? You think we are sheep like obidients ? We think!!! What do you think ronu means ? and if Obasanjo is sidelined you bet that is where he suppose to be at this present stage in his life.

Oga expand your mind and stop carrying tribe on your head... If you were born in Ghana as a Ghanaian all the things your bitter about would not even cross your mind.
Also you can not say we are not tolerant becasue the evidence on ground as I type shows that we are .

He is batified now, which is a testament to your two-faced nature, never loyal! The Easterners stuck with the PDP for years because of the liberal market policies the PDP operated while they held power and even when they lost, the still held on until PDP did not allow Obi who was their best person then.

You brother abandoned Obi within a short time because of the usual double mindedness.

you seem to have had personal experiences so can you share? Becasue what you are insinuating is alien to me, but let me give you an instance of an intolerable Igbo man ... I have a childhood friend who is from abia state, we have been friends for ages, but ever since I started supporting tinubu even before he won the election, my friend cut all communications, becasue he is trying to be obidient. I tried to reach out but from the body language I decided to let him be for now. Now that is a personal experience, what of you ? What drives your position ?

I have several personal experiences which i don't wanna mention. I have seen surveys online where people asked the most tribalistic ethnic group....the overwhelming majority pointed to the Yorubas. Just do a little research, you'll see it

Its impossible for everyone to be on the same page and Chief Obasanjo ways is always anti Yoruba, so if Yorubas decided to ignore him, then let those people his supporting embrace him now.

At Least no one disrespects him. Even Asiwaju accords him respect by visiting him during the campaign period and whats the result.

Besides, why did the OP suddenly becomes Obasanjo spokesperson?

you have a strong position with no concrete base besides what you read online in a survey that you purposely sort out to reenforce your preferred standpoint. Well I have no reason to want to convince you but take your time and look on this forum and tell me which tribe is fund of that type of behavior ... Oh I forgot... You can't be unbiased becasue you are conditioned to see a certain way.

They have disowned Obasanjo because of his choice but they are attacking others for not tolerating other people's choice.

Their new lie now is that Obasanjo is not a Yoruba man. That Obasanjo was never Yoruba's choice for presidency. They accuse south east of going against their choice, Olu Falae in 1999. But have never accused north of going against their choice. Obasanjo won in 15 northern states and Abuja while Falae claimed only 3 northern states in 1999.

If Falae was really their choice, why didn't SW vote for Falae in 2003?
If you want to lie, records are there. Falae defeated Obasanjo massively in all southwestern state, and from epistle up there Yoruba's never owe igbo's any support because from inception Igbos are anti -Yoruba.They are jealous of Awolowo,and eventually send him to jail, killed Akintola, orchestrated the annulment of June 12, 1993 election,voted against Falae, Voted against Tinubu. Yorubas will rather form an alliance with south south than having a south eastern president.
https://www.electoralgeography.com/new/en/countries/n/nigeria/nigeria-presidential-election-1999.html..
Infact Igbos voted for Bashir Tofa against MKO Abiola. So Yoruba's owe them nothing and we will always stand as opposition to a BIafran president from a wicked region.

The only known criminal we know is Peter Gringory Obi who invested government funds a bank he has interest in and a brewery he owns.
Peter Obi is the drug lord that was arrested in London.

I don't take their stance seriously, most of them only support you if they have something to gain. Their entire support for Buhari was because they hoped to gain the Presidency. If Tinubu did not gain it they would have revolted immediately.

Double stance is their bedrock.

Remember to tell that to Akintola and MuRIC that told Yoruba Muslims not to vote Yoruba Christians especially Osinbajo. All these I have Christians in my family Jagon is only used to decieve the Christian segment of the population when it comes to politics.

see I am Yoruba , but even I myself have issues with somethings with some certain Yoruba people I come across but not withstanding it doesn't make me prejudice it only makes me more cautious.. I prefer to judge people based on thier individual characters and that is how I navigate this world. Like I said on this forums the most people if you want to be unbiased, the people who are fund of the nasty character you proscribe to Yoruba people are igbos. So for you to hold the position you are standing on, it is informed by your lack of an open mind. Just do a little research on nairaland and you will understand

I'm not talking of nasty characters(I agree we can be rude and aggressive sometimes), I'm talking of tribalism specifically. Yorubas have a lot of good behaviors but tribalism is one thing I know is prevalent in SW

This one is still wailing of elections Truormer.... Did obasanjo tell you he was abandoned?? Yorubas are more wiser than to stay with who have lesser hope and offers to a vibrant and hopeful leader like Tinubu. It his right to pit Tent anywhere he likes but he can't expect everyone to follow him bcs His humanitarians and capital investment in the south west is not up to what will make people to follow him up and down anyhow.

I really want to know like a specific example so I can really put a grasp on it becasue in my life I am yet to see where a Yoruba man is tribalistic towards an Igbo man... Like for instance a landlord that will say he doesn't want to rent his house to an Igbo man in Yoruba land ... Maybe it happens but I have not come across something like that .. something similar happened here on nairaland to me one time when I was saying Igbo people buy land in Yoruba land but igbos will never sell land to Yoruba man only to find out I was wrong. And becasue I prioritize knowledge over most things I did my research and I learnt. That I was deducing my position from unfounded truths and I updated. So let me know an example that makes you hold your position

Re: They Claim To Be Tolerant But They Disowned Obasanjo by DMerciful(m): 3:59pm On Jun 18, 2023
An example is Yorubas protecting themselves even when they're wrong just because they're Yoruba. Long time ago, in my work place, a Yoruba guy did something wrong and admitted but when the boss got to know, he changed his story and all the Yorubas there supported his new story even though they knew he had changed it.

My wife was serving in a secondary school around Oluyole in Ibadan when we had our first child. She resumed school after about 4months after delivery. I met the assistant principal who is a woman ,to appeal for my wife to come to school only during her teaching period because the baby is just 4months. The woman declined but that was not the issue. She said you Igbos think you are very wise.why will you request for your wife to come only on her lecture days or periods.I find her reference to my ethnicity as the basis for her decision distasteful.
