This is very terrible, Awo and Abiola must be rolling in the grave because of what their region has been turned into. Drinking ratak and poisoned tea just to preserve the ungodly unity wasn't worth it after all, spits.

Tinubu should step down honorably if he can't tackle what he swore an oath to do. He just wanted to answer the president nothing upstairs.

What a country where atrocious and treasonable anti-state elements are holding sway with full confidence when the barrage of a country's security agencies are seating as lame ducks because of politics.

Bruv, you should not have responded. Let them start their own thread of ethnic mischief and let them alone be the only contributors.

Some of us are enjoying the way things are playing out now with the instigators, pretending to be victims, now crying.

"No man's land", they mocked others with for decades in the pas, is no longer on their lips.

We are all seeing the result of their folly through the ethnic cold war some of us predicted would descend upon Nigeria inevitably.

Some people do not realise those they are bitter enemies of will never be on the losing side for the fact no one ever loses to those who need them more and cannot survive without them.

Let them carry on their antics online. We ain't online with action.
