Must you talk just because he silenced you ? He don't have a point here ,he just want to buy a space ,sis they put Yoruba as minister in the Igbo state? Is there no Igbo representative in the high table of the NASS or what.
PDP remain a problem in Nigeria if you don't know

Honestly speaking, even if one is not vindictive, Igbos will cause you to be one towards them!
Tinubu has not been vindictive ever since he assumed office considering how he made a southern Kaduna Christian who were his avowed enemies during 2023 elections as chief of Defense Staff. This is because they have moved on after elections while IPOB/ Igbos are still in their usual fierce rivalry and hatred of others who share different political opinions.
It serves them well!

We are keeping records

Let Tinubu APC continue with there divide and rule politics that has almost brought the economy of Nigeria to her kneels.

Buhari tried it and it backfired on all Nigerians , Tinubu is about following same path and the disaster is already splattering on everybody faces .

Look around, all you see is hardship and avoidable deaths because the people appointed to head sensitive positions are semi illiterates who got appointments based on religious and tribal affiliations and not based on merit
Just wait and see. We will give you the most useless ministries. You never see anything. You want us to give you appointments for voting and rigging massively against us? You must be joking. You cannot work in GTB, and go to UBA to ask for salary

Have igbos ever been fair to Yoruba in history?
Dumbass question! Has a Igbo ever held executive power at the centre since ‘independence’!? Have Ndigbo targeted Yoruba properties in the south-east or threatened them in the south-east in any way!?

You people are as sick in the head as you’re evil, hateful and vindictive! But no surprises though! Any Igbo that expects you and your hateful ilk to have any sense of fairness and act differently to how you’ve just promised, is one naive Igbo that’s easily fooled!

Whatever you schmucks are dispensing are not ‘favours’ but the entitlement and commonwealth of ALL Nigerians! It’s not for you to apportion based on who gave you votes and who didn’t!

Why would Tinubu declare that it was his turn to become president knowing full well that if it's turn by turn, it's the turn of the Igbo to present a president for Nigeria in 2023?
Tinubu slapped every Igbo on the face by that declaration. He is so hatefilled and inconsiderate for the Igbo.
You are misquoting President Tinubu and taking his words seriously out of context which is unfair.

Bubu and President Tinubu had an agreement when their parties merged which was that Buhari will be the Presidential candidate of the joint party after which it will be President Tinubu's turn.

At one point the cabal, being fearful of not being able to control President Tinubu as they did Bubu, decided to encourage Bubu to lean towards an Osibanjo presidential candidate and of course Bubu did their bidding as usual.

That was why President Tinubu angrily clarified that he had a deal with Bubu and it was his turn hence emilokan (to be APC Presidential candidate).

Like Wike will say, A deal is a.....deal.

I don't know why Yoruba youths of today now derive joy in telling lies and believing devious lies told by their demonic political elites?



Goodluck Jonathan fought to make a Yoruba woman the first House of Reps Speaker, this same Bola Tinubu that you senseless Yoruba youths are worshipping today fought Goodluck and sabotaged that and ensured Tambuwal got it because he wanted to use Tambuwal to fight Goodluck.



Tinubu deceived you Yorubas and using you all to be fighting his personal political battle.



Tinubu's fall out with Goodluck started when Tinubu wanted Goodluck to appoint his cousin as Petroleum Minister which Goodluck ignored and appointed Diezani Alison Madueke.



It is well, make una continue sha, the few sensible Yorubas like this man, know that all is not right and well, but senseless youths like you think its all rosy and cool, continue

When you get home, ask the remaining elders in your lineage to furnish you with the list of political appointees from the South when Nnamdi Azikiwe was the ceremonial president. Tell them to give you the names of VCs Azikiwe approved/appointed to UI, Unilag, ABU & UNN.
Also asked them to give you the names of top leaders executives and legislative Arms of govt during Tafawa/Azikiwe, Shagari/Ekwueme and GEJ (that you Igbo successfully hijacked)

To you dingbats, Alex otti earmarking 160 houses for demolition abia and Soludo doing same in anambra is no problem. But when Yoruba want to do same to enhance environmental sanity in SW, it becomes "Targeting ndigbos properties" as if it is only Igbos that live and have properties in SW.

And we don't need his dirty appointments for an iligetimate president who rigged and bribed his way to power with dollars gotten from cocaine and heroine proceeds plus his money drilling family privatized state called Lagos.

Tinubu will return that mandate he stole and the real president of Nigeria will be declared. Na time.

All eyes on the Judiciary ☹️
Obi never said he won

He did when his legal team were about to file the petition on his behalf.

His legal team then never mentioned it again during the Tribunal proceedings.

Interesting that, right?

Obidients haven't stopped banging on about his stolen mandate though. Easy to say when you don't have to prove it.

Ogbeni, thank you for the ronu. My Ibo brothers that I know don't need anyone's patronage. They've been living without it, and they've prospered, nonetheless.
Awolowo, the tribalist, did it, it didn't work. Tinubu is doing it, it will fail.

Yeah!

Every Southeast state has a representation because the constitution statutorily stated so which lives the urine dispenser with no choice.

Even under Buhari, southeast still had 5 representatives.

The implication is that there’s no difference between Buhari and Tinubu when it comes to showing disdain for the Southeast people.

Maybe if it wasn’t a constitutional provision, we wouldn’t have gotten any representation at all.

But I tell you what, we don’t give a fork!

You can tell Tinubu to replace all the southeasterners in his cabinet with Yorubas if that would stop the expulsion of Yorubas from their ancestral lands in Illorin.

Dude, your initial dumbass question was: 'have Igbo ever been fair to the Yoruba in history?' Of course the way you posted it, you spelt 'igbo' starting with a small letter i, whereas in the case of your own ethnicity you spelt Yoruba starting with a capital letter Y as should be the case. Was this deliberate?

The bolded part renders your argument legless! I addressed this issue with another Igbo-hating who was also trying to use those appointments, by the Prime Minister of the time, as an excuse for the wicked, vindictive and hateful actions of Tinubu today! Being a ceremonial president, Zik had no appointive powers to the positions in question! At best he could recommend names, and it was the prerogative of the PM to either accept or reject them! Remember the PM then was a northern muslim and he was the one running gov't at the time, so why are you trying to heap ALL the 'blame' for appointments of pioneer VCs to UNILAG and University of Ibadan. Do you have any particular issue with the way Professor Dike ran UI....or is your grouse based on the fact that he's Igbo? I and most neutrals reading this doubt we'd be having this conversation had it been white men from the UK were pioneer VCs of both universities. Had it been the first republic wasn't truncated by that senseless coup, i'm sure that by now a number of Yoruba Profs and those of other ethnicities would have been VCs of UNN and Nigeria would have been the better for it! Remember a newly independent Nigeria was just beginning, and we're talking of a Zik who rooted for a Fulani man to become the first Mayor of the capital of the Eastern Region of the time!

Were those universities federal or regional? If they were federal, shouldn't your happiness be that the Western Region was chosen to host the pioneer indigenous Nigerian university?

So you're now accusing the Igbo of 'hijacking' the Balewa and Shagari gov'ts!? In what way? And remember there was a coalition between the two leading parties of both regions at the time. Attached is a link showing the names of ministers during all the Balewa federal gov'ts from 1957-66. I invite all to click the link see the names listed, and tell me how the Igbo 'hijacked' the Balewa gov'ts as this bigot i'm quoting argues:

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cabinet_of_Abubakar_Tafawa_Balewa

Attached is another link showing the ministers in the Shagari regime of 1979-83:

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cabinet_of_Shehu_Shagari#:~:text=The%20Cabinet%20of%20Shehu%20Shagari,terminated%20by%20a%20military%20coup.

Now compare the ethnic/regional spread of names in both links to what we had in the 8 locust Buhari years as well as the appointments made thus far by his partner in crime, Tinubu! Compare and tell me if these people are not inherently wicked and vindictive for trying to justify their hatred and exclusion of Ndigbo based on what they think happened more than half a century ago! And these are the people that sing 'one Nigeria' the loudest!
