As the 2023 elections approached, there were threats against Igbos living and doing business in Lagos. They were told not to participate in Lagos elections, their places of business were sabotaged.

70 year old Frederick Nwajiagu, the self styled 'Ezendigbo Ajao estate' makes a video where he rants about inviting IPOB to protect Igbo investments in Lagos. The video goes viral, and Yorubas call for his head, call him unprintable named, urge the security forces to get him. security agents swoop down on him, and he is charged for terrorism

But there is another group that have been terrorising and killing Yorubas in Ondo, Oyo, Ogun and Ekiti. The same group recently killed 3 Yoruba obas.

However, the same reaction that followed Ezendigbo is not seen with those that killed Yoruba Oba's, no shouting and screaming anywhere

Why did the mere words of a 70 year old man, angry at how his people were treated, mean more to Yorubas than those actively killing their Oba's?

Is it because Ezendigbo is an Igbo man?

mdimefields:

Igbos are disadvantaged in Nigeria because of the seemingly disunity among the Bia speaking people, however, Yorubas are cowards. They lack balls to face the real dangers which happens to come from the north.

I saw them calling South Africans xenophobes but they forgot the tribalism they spearheaded in Lagos during the election and still happening. Hypocrites!

BeninRefugees:


When you realise that 200 years ago theres no body called Yoruba but odua

They don't have identity

The yar!!!ba they're answering was given to them by fulanis


When you know all these you won't be surprised

christistruth01:


Yorubas were being called Yorubas before the Fulani entered Nigeria
Around the 16th century the Gobir Hausa were Nomadic Warriors who were military allies of Oyo after they had lived in Oyo for 10 years Alaafin advised them to establish their own kingdom instead of moving from place to place as Nomadic Warriors.
The Gobir Hausa accepted Alaafin's advice and with an Army the Alaafin gave them to help them they established the Gobir Kingdom.
That is e Gobir Hausa often have Yoruba Ancestors in addition to their Hausa Ancestors

The name of their King was Bawa
The Gobir Hausa were the ones who called Oyo people who they had lived and intermarried with Yorubas

The other Hausa later started calling all the Ife Groups Yorubas since they didn't know the difference or who was Ijesha Oyo Ondo Awori Igbomina Ekiti and so on, it was only the Gobir Hausa who had lived and intermarried with the Oyos that knew the difference

The other Hausa just knew they all migrated from Ile Ife and spoke the same Language so they used Yoruba as a blanket term for all of them

chiagozien:
They are worst than the South Africans



Those that attacked the supposed country Men for coming out to vote has no right to talk against xenophobic attack by South Africans




Their hatred for Igbos is legendary

happney65:
It is actually not Yoruba people in General

It is supporters of Tinubu that were throwing ethnic rife here and there

But now,kings are being killed in the SW and we have not seen them throwing their fists here and there like they did when it comes to electioneering

Chimarto:
3 Obas? this is historically..........there ha-te for I-gbo is blood related

Rahkman:
shut up oga there was nothing like yorubas...there was the ijebus the aworis the ifes yoruba has no meaning the word yoruba was gotten from the word yaribawa meaning shady and unreliable

Jeans601:


More kings have been kidnap and killed in the SE region than any other in the last 2yrs.

I just wonder if you guys really think people don't know what happens in your region.

This hypocrisy is always disgusting.
