The Legacy Awolowo left behind is still standing strong, which sector in Nigeria can you even compete with Yoruba? Industry, Banking and finance, ICT, IT, Entertainment, even Sports, I checked the last National sports festival and no south east states in top 10 and Yoruba have four state in top 10 and Ogun was even second, highest number of Forbes billionaires in Africa, highest Grammy awards, we have Pulitzer and even Nobel Laureate.

As of today no tribe is as successful as Yoruba In Nigeria with 4 Yoruba on Forbes list that achievements alone pummel anything from any tribe, to put it in perspective most countries in Africa can't even get a single billionaire but Yoruba have four that's the highest in Africa and if you want to use nepotism excuse two of them made their money in UK and US.

Obafemi Awolowo’s free primary education policy in Western Nigeria, launched in 1955, was partially discontinued in the early 1960s, specifically after he left office in 1960 and following the crisis in the Western Region in 1962.

Timeline of Discontinuation:
1960: Awolowo resigns as Premier to become Leader of the Opposition at the federal level.

1962: The Action Group splits; political instability leads to a state of emergency in Western Nigeria.

Post-1962: Successive governments in the region rolled back or scaled down free education and other welfare programs due to financial constraints and political realignment.

While some form of subsidized education continued, the universal, fully free model championed by Awolowo was no longer fully maintained after the early 1960s.

How has the education helped in making the country great?
At the end those who are highly educated are relegated to the background.
China and other developed countries make use of their bright minds in developing their countries.
But down here, the main focus is who can play dirty politics effectively.

Even in the US, Shaboozy is has the record for most time at #1 on the billboard charts of any artist in history. So even in the global ecosystem...

Shaboozy - Bar Song
Digital Sales 7.343M US downloads
Streaming 912.6M U.S., ~1B Spotify
Hot 100 19 weeks at #1
Radio Songs 27 weeks at #1
Canadian Chart 25 weeks at #1
First‑week Album Units 50K
Awards Multiple nominations & wins


Shaboozey’s "A Bar Song (Tipsy)" has indeed made history. Alongside Lil Nas X’s "Old Town Road", it holds the record for the longest time spent at #1 on the Billboard Hot 100, with a remarkable 19 weeks at the top

Here’s a clearer breakdown:

19 weeks at #1:

"Old Town Road" by Lil Nas X (featuring Billy Ray Cyrus) in 2019
"A Bar Song (Tipsy)" by Shaboozey in 2024
So they currently share the all-time lead for the longest-running song at the top of the Hot 100 chart.

Stats is not always 100% accurate and say the whole story and this stat is just for a small group 18 - 24, what's literacy ? People that can read and write, for example the stats put literacy rate for Yoruba women 18-24 at 56% which is ridiculous, there's no Yoruba woman at that age that can't read and write at worst they may not be fluent in English but they will still be able to do so in Yoruba, which is still literate in Yoruba standard because we are not English. So far so good it is still the same Yoruba women that have the most female CEO in Nigeria Banking


You guys think if you propagate falsehood a
lot of times it will become true.

Most Successful African groups in what? Can you even boast the number of professionals Yoruba have? With not even a single rated Igbo billionaire, if being delusional is a group all you know is loud empty noise.

That Yoruba woman lecturer of LASU will never let you graduate with a first class if you are Igbo,even if you merit it..

We need to start investigating all our lecturers who are tribalist.

That woman should be selling akara by the roadside and not be in our classrooms spreading hate.

If I were Igbo and her student, I will fear for my CGPA. She must be marking down the scripts of non-yorubas in her faculty.

From your analysis above, we should also conclude that Hausas are richer than Yorubas because the first and second richest Nigerians are Hausas.

Why do you think Yorubas plotted to destroy the educational future of Igbo kids in the just-concluded JAMB exercise? Simple answer, to keep the Igbos down and hopefully destroy Igbos.

Igbos are sure to top the chart.

If u watch when Alex Otti met those children hawking,do u know what he ask them,he said hope u are in school?
He further ask,hope it is free education u are enjoying and they all said yes.

My point is not about the free education, but the part that ask hope u are in school.

Now,imagine if it was a governor in the north that met those children,he would have given them money because begging is the major thing over there.

And if it were in the west,it would have been "ko si owo onje" possibly the fate of the people.

Igbos,are schooling in virtually every state,federal and privates universities all over Nigeria,hence the reason for this authentication.
......and how have this transformed Biafran Land to the most developed in Nigeriahuh? or is it that most of the indigenes have fled to Bayelsa and Lagos to these areas because of insecurity?

If you go to America most Americans barely know anything about Africa, Asia, Europe etc in fact most only know about America and don't care about anywhere else yet America is still the most successful country on earth.

We can't speak English in Yoruba land and we are proud of it, you that can speak English how many Billionaires do you have on Forbes? How many Grammy awards have you won? How many of the university in your region is even rated in the top 10 university in Nigeria? Can you even match Yoruba industrial capacity apart from importing and 4 by 4 shops what else can you do?

Do you have more professionals than Yoruba in Nigeria?

How many Igbo can even speak good English? What want to eradicate your language is actually pidgin, something that will even sound like a barbarian speaking to the real English people.
.... Okay with all the Grammys Yoruba have won how have this transformed the Yoruba society, is it that kidnappinghave totally disappeared in Ondo and Ekiti or the yorubas with their highly educated indigines have been able to solve the epileptic power supply in the south west?

So what's your GDP stats suppose to prove?

Yoruba have 3 state in the top 10 GDP and Lagos alone is enough to pummel all of you.
