Contrary to the traditional character of Yorubas to be the strength holding the sovereingty together when Nigeria is thrown into political uncertainty, in this 2015 election leadership from the Westerners is absent.

My opinion is drawn from a handful of observations on recent events and their aftermath. I will bring my dialogue questions in piecemeal and Yorubas are invited to share inputs and opinions. Let's jump right into it.

1. Foreign armies from Niger, Chad and Cameroon have been brought on the sovereign soil of Nigeria to eradicate a three year old problem that our incompetent President find daunting to tackle and fix. Largely, these countries and their soldiers are ethnic extensions of the Northern people of Nigeria. Therefore their presence on this soil is a political and a military risk to the whole country. In my view, Jonathan, by this decision, has created a precedence in one of many vulnerabilities and put us into a bind from which the country may never be able to regain its full strength. Someone has to speak up and rebuke the President for this poor judgement. Such public activism is the purveyor of the Yorubas. The leadership know and see how this calculates into the future but yet remained silent, not cheering the decision, nor rebuking it.

2. Jonathan's administration is dry of ministerial appointments from the West. It is therefore imperative that the few Yorubas in there should remember the home they come from and uphold the pride and dignity of their roots. This is the single message Yoruba parents give when their children depart on a new breakthrough in life. Ekitigate is a shame, not on PDP, but on Yorubaland. What went wrong in Ekiti is about character, and not partisan politics. We have a returning ex Governor who lost his sense of honour and humility and bullied a General of the Army infront of his subordinates. Why is such a man governing anywhere in Yorubaland? A member of the House of Representatives, the legislative chamber of our democracy, a man who writes bills that become the law that govern our order in society, openly flaunting the law recklessly and without self restraint. The Governor and House member, these are people we label 'Honorables'. Which honor? Obanikoro and Adesiyan, one over army, the other over police, used the power of the federal gun and injustice to harass and intimidate their fellow Yorubas, just so they can earn favour and esteem with the Ijaw on top.

Instead of rising collectively to condemn the siege on Ekiti, Yoruba leaders say they support Jonathan because he will implement the agreements of the Confab and devolve power to the regions. Does what happen in Ekiti look like the touch of someone ready to let go of the power he Presides over, or one who will bend rules and order to satisfy his ambition for expansion of power?

How many agreements, signed and sealed, by past regimes are sitting waiting for implementation...some have been nulled by subsequent decrees and statutes. What is going to make this any different? In fact, how is a man incompetent at fighting insurgency in just a section of the country going to have the competence to enforce the outcome of confab on those across the country that reject and oppose it.

Are these Yoruba leaders reasoning when they endorse Jonathan in exchange for him to implement Confab agreements?

3. Newly posted IG of Police to zone2, Mbu, went on air and in public to declare that if a policeman is killed, there will be retaliation and twenty of "you" will be killed in return. Who is this "you" he was referring? First, in the history of police zone2, who are the people that confront police and army? Yorubas! Who are the victims of police brutality and murder during political riots in zone2? Yorubas! So who do you think the "you" in reference is? Mbu wants to murder twenty Yoruba children for every one policeman killed in resulting riots after the election. Yorubaland has been rioting for political justice back when Mbu ancestors were still hiding their naked.ness with leaves and barks. The loss of Ilorin began as a political riot. Kiriji war began as a political riot. Operation weti e started as a political riot. OPC was born out of political riot. NADECO was born out of political riot.

Mbu even went to insult Yoruba leaders by pushing the assault envelope to include Governors in zone2....he wants them arrested if they go where he told them not to go.

Where is Yoruba voice which true to character would normally have come out and demanded for a replacement in the zone2 IG post?

They are sitting silent, not wanting to rock the boat and not get regionalism. The truth is, the writing is on the wall, Jonathan does not have the competency to devolve power. Power devolution comes with political savvy and stern control....neither of which he posesses.

Yorubas are going to end up slipping in judgement and return Jonathan to power. The foreign armies brought in by Jonathan are going to collude with their brothers up North and oust Jonathan....then what

Sorry, I don't read trash!!

Can you just keep quiet with the gej thing. If you can't read go back to school.

hmmm some ppl sha

Abeg jor

Yorubas may be "the character" but the Igbos are definitely the grease that oils Nigeria to keep functioning.

Igbos are the indispensable tribe.

Yolobass are chameleons, its only a m0r0n that will enter an alliance with a yoloba person and didn't make a way for an emergency exit door incase the chameleon turns another thing.

During Indirect rule, it was a sucess in North, a faiilure in East but when it came to West it was neither a success or a failure.

The colonial masters were intimidating Southern women, Igbo women took to rioting and brought the government down in 1929 yolobawomen keep running around like headless chicken cut with a razor blade.

Ojukwu, Awolowo and Gowon went on summit in Aburi Ghana, Ojukwu said his mind, Awolowo and Gowon accepted but immediately they came back to Nigeria Awolowo changed his tune and started yarning dust.

During Cartoon Riot there was reprisal attack in East but yolobass kept mute and buried their death in secrecy.

Its only in yolobaland that you will see somebody going to Mosque on friday, native doctor on Saturday and church on sunday....please how do you address these confunists called yoloba people

During Miss World there attack in East bc Igbos were killed but guess what yolobass buried theirs without any condemnation.

During the US invasion of Afghanistan, East took to the streets and started lynching the terrorist but yolobass kept mute.

100 Ibadan traders where killed in North with their money stolen, yolobass go about their normal businesses.

NYSC 12 happened yolobass where jubilating that Igbos were only the victims but when the result was called the donated half of the victims and today they have forgotten it but Igbos keep reminding Nigerians of the evil pasts.


If your scheming to stage a protest with yolobass in your crew, believe you will end up the scape goat because they will stab you at the back by aligning with the opposition so that they will regarded as nice people.

Infact am tired of these people walahi

I am still surprised that Yinka Odumakin will be gullible enough to believe Jonathan has any intention or the power to implement anything in the Conference report. The truth is the role of the President in constitutional amendment is almost nil,, other than encouraging the house to pass th law and then the next set is the State house of assemblies.

Till this moment Jonathan is not known to have a stand on ANY issue bothering on True Federalism. There is nothing he can be identified as championing similar to Barack Obama's passion for programs like Obamacare. At best his ministers will do all the talking and policy statement as the clueless one has nothing to say.

Even his party PDP does not have constitutional reform in their plan of action or manifesto for the next 4 years, yet Odumakin wants us to believe Jonathan will magically implement anything.

He also explained that the reason is not backing Buhari now after being his spokesman in 2011 is because of the quality of people surrounding him now, now that he is backing Jonathan he has not told us the wonderful qualities of the people surrounding GEJ or that is no longer an issue.
