Good

Human and intellectual resources are our greatest strength as Yorùbá. That's what places our region as the most resourceful, developed and sophisticated. Although Ondo is the only major oil producing, other regions struggle to even tail behind us. From the elementary level of yorubas being 6 of the top 12 JAMB candidates for this year UTME, the rest is history as we parade the best and finest of educational infrastructure in the country

A Nigerian Yoruba Woman. Good One👍👍

If the woman was Igbo and an Igbo person simply commented "Igbo amaka", you and your ilk will come in here and start foaming from your mouths about how igbos love to brag and beat their chests, whereas you just wish you could do the same. The truth is that you're jealous that they have more bragging rights, and to you, bragging rights on the internet is very important.

Congratulations Ayobami,greater heights for you in Jesus name. How I wish I can get this things too. You grow big by starting small. You know you have 'A spell of good things' and you're being mocked and criticised by people for hawking your goods, working hard,farming and earning little as a graduate.Then tomorrow you start earning big from your handwork and become the Dangote,Otedola,Bill Gates in the world
