For the benefit of your readership do well to post such news/comments where all the issues I raised where duly addressed by Yoruba leaders.

If any apology or redress were made the Deji of Akure would not invite an Igbo leader to his Palace only for him to unleash his 200 touts who molested him few days ago.

If there was any redress for the injustice and evils perpetrated against Igbos in Lagos Yoruba touts would not go to Alaba international market to loot Igbo shops and lock a section of the market few weeks ago.

If there was any redress Yorubas would never accuse Igbos of abducting Olu Falae a couple of weeks ago even when Falae revealed that Fulani herdsmen kidnapped him for ransom.

Are you not aware that people were maimed and killed and properties destroyed by OPC during the June 12 saga?

Have you heard of Igbos maltreating any Yoruba person in Enugu, Onitsha, Aba or Umuahia?

Have you heard Igbos making noise and boasting in the media of accommodating Yorubas who are basically tenants in the SE?

It's really ridiculous that you're still lying and feigning ignorance of the extent your tribe goes to malign Igbo people using every available media outfit at their disposal just to prove a point.

Do you see Igbos engage in such campaign of calumny to short-change others and achieve undue political gains?

Ever since you were born, have you seen or heard anywhere Igbos are on rampage, killing people and destroying means of livelihoods for no just cause?

Have any prominent Igbo personality insulted or maligned your father or Yoruba race?

In the build up to the 2015 general the likes of FFK, Fayose, Fashola, Tinubu, Lai, El Rufai, Junaid Mohammed, Obj and Sahara Reporters made careless utterances thereby heating up the polity. None of them is Igbo. So, what ails you?

If Igbos are the problem with Nigeria why would mischievous fellows like you become embittered that Igbos seek self-determination?

Why would Yorubas always weep and wail at the mention of Biafra as if your life sustenance is being is taken away? 

Stop spreading lies, falsehood and propaganda to score cheap points for your Yoruba tribe!

It's honourable to be objective in your analysis of issues instead of being an unrepentant hypocritical bigot!

Before you sign off for the night read the message Sanusi Lamido Sanusi, the current Emir of Kano, has for liars and history distortionists like you:
YORUBAS ARE THE PROBLEM WITH NIGERIA - By Sanusi Lamido 
"In sum, the Yoruba political leadership, as mentioned by Balarabe Musa, has shown itself over the years to be incapable of rising above narrow tribal interests and reciprocating goodwill from other sections of the country by treating other groups with respect. Practically every crisis in Nigeria since independence has its roots in this attitude. 
   * The Yoruba elite and area-boy politics;
    * Igbo marginalisation and the responsible limits of retribution; and
    * The Yoruba Factor and "Area-boy" Politics.
My views on the Yoruba political leadership have been thoroughly articulated in some of my writings, prime among which was " Afenifere: Syllabus of Errors" published by This Day (The Sunday Newspaper) on Sept 27, 1998. There was also an earlier publication in the weekly Trust entitled " The Igbo, the Yoruba and History" (Aug. 21, 1998)...

Yoruba community alleges marginalisation in Enugu
By Emmanuel Nzomiwu, Reporter, Enugu




Yoruba community in Enugu State has cried out over what it described as total neglect and marginalisation by the present Enugu State government led by Sullivan Chime.

The aggrieved members of Yoruba community, who made their feelings public through their leader, Mr. Ade Johnson Adeyelu, regretted that the group which was formed in 1990 and registered under then Anambra State Government had never before now experienced marginalisation in the state.

Adeyelu said that his people voted for state government during the last general election and wondered why Chime’s government has since inception not cared for their welfare.

His words: “We have passed through series of military governors and military administrators down the line to the civilian governors.

“Over these years, we have enjoyed some sort of patronage from the government, patronage in the sense that some Yorubas then were given the opportunity to be members of the Muslim Welfare Board. As a result of that they were given one or two slots to participate in Hajj Operations in Medina. From that 1990, down to when Chimaroke became governor, we still enjoyed the slots that were given to the Yoruba community in Enugu.


“There is no doubt we are facing a lot of problems in this state. We have not benefited anything from the present administration in Enugu State. We as a community we have participated in almost all the activities of the state.The last straw that broke the camel’s back was the present Hajj operation, which we recommended people to participate. But up till now, there is no single Yoruba man that belongs to the Yoruba community that was given any slot to participate in the Hajj operation.”

Adeyelu recalled that since governor Chime came on board, he had written about five letters seeking for audience with him, to let his government know the problems of the Yoruba community but unfortunately none of the letters was replied.

He also expressed disappointment that Chime does not care and had not asked leaders of non-indigenes in his state the problems their various groups are facing in the state, just as he regretted that the immediate past administration cancelled the allocation of land given to the Yoruba community to build its secretariat by the former military governor of the state, Navy Captain Mike Agbaje.

The secretariat, he said, would have served as a centre where the Yoruba cultural heritage would have been sold to the people, adding that all the promises of re-allocation of another land to the community made by the past administration, did not yield fruitful dividend until its tenure expired in 2007.

Besides, Adeyelu advised all members of the Yoruba community in the state to remain calm, law abiding and loyal not only to their host state but to the Federal Government as there is still hope for a better tomorrow for them.

The Anambra State Government has debunked claims that its ejection order on traders at the Head Bridge section of the Onitsha-Enugu Expressway is targeted at Hausa and Yoruba traders.

At a press briefing after State Executive Council Meeting in Awka on Tuesday, the Commissioner for Information, Culture and Tourism, Chief Maja Umeh, said the ejection order was meant to clear the way for the construction of service lanes and shoulders on that section of the road.

The Hausa and Yoruba traders at the goat markets, however, maintained that the ejection order had ethnic colouration.

Umeh said alternative sites had already been allocated to the traders, who refused to relocate.

Umeh said, “Following the commencement of beautification works on Km zero-three of the Enugu-Onitsha Expressway to complement the ongoing reconstruction work on the road as promised by Governor Peter Obi, it has become necessary to direct all the illegal occupants of the service lane and road shoulders to relocate immediately.

“These illegal occupants, especially those who have been allocated alternative locations like the goat sellers, 911 Lorry park users, and so on, are hereby directed to relocate to their sites immediately as their continuous stay there amounts to obstruction of the beautification exercise.

“The state government takes the beautification of the Bridge Head-Upper Iweka Roundabout very seriously since it is the main gateway into the state and will stop at nothing in bringing defaulters of this directive to order.”

The Hausa and Yoruba traders described the state government’s ejection order as “biased and ethnic motivated.”

They said they were legitimate tenants of the Federal Ministry of Housing and have valid receipts for payments for their allocations that would expire by 2014. They insisted that the plot to forcefully eject them by the state government was undemocratic.

The leaders of the traders, Chief Lateef Balogun, and Alhaji Tanimu Ibrahim, said the state government had concluded plans to lease the plot of land to a major transporter in Onitsha, adding that they were not given an alternative site to relocate to.

The trader leaders stated that the move to throw them out of the place of business they had occupied for over 40 years without a plan for compensation or relocation was a subtle way of sacking the Yoruba and Hausa communities in the state.

They recalled that the last time the state government tried to forcibly eject them with soldiers, 11 of the traders were killed.

They said, “What they are planning to do is to subtly sack us from the state but as Nigerians, we have the right to live and do business in any part of the country without fear of intimidation. We shall resist any plot to stampede us out of the market by agents of government over a flimsy excuse.

The Special Adviser to the Governor on Parks and Markets, Chief Sylvester Nwaobualor, had said the move to eject the traders was not motivated by ethnic considerations but a measure to clean up the Bridge Head which is the gateway to the state.

The government had, about three years ago, initiated the ejection order on all the traders, but the move failed as the traders resisted the quit notice. 

Goke7:
The earlier the ibos get over the loss of GEJ at the polls the better for them cos since the last elections the ibos have been allowing their emotions run riot all over Yoruba land. The Yoruba's in Lagos are still liberal compare to the Yoruba's outside Lagos. If they are in doubt, they should try out their skills in Ife or ijebu land.

Its time for the ibos to move on, 2019 is not too far away, they can start restrategising now to get better. If the likes of papa Clark the ijaw nation and even NOI have moved on, why can't the ibos for Christ sake.

Kagawa10:
The deji will have his say though! If it pains you, go and jump into the lagoon!
Heck, there will be no more eze in Ondo!

FreeGlobe:
Why I didn't say much on this issue is I don't support igbo population in yorubaland (not Lagos for emphasis) likewise the north but this this thug called Deji very foolish. Why is he dabbling in the running of an ethnic association of a different, culturally unrelated people in Ondo state. is he the governor of the state? What gave him the audacity to tell an independent association under the Nigerian law who should be their Eze? Was he the one that formed the association for them? This is why Tinubu said yoruba obas are useless. The last one battered his wife and was dethroned for this thug. This Deji should be arrested for inciting violence and constituting public nuisance.

cleatoris:
Mr sophisticated, you will always agree with them even when they insult your king and curse your land in front of you. You are far worse than your muslim counterparts who pledge allegiance to the sokoto caliphate to the detriment of their Yoruba ancestry based on mere political acquantance.

Truly, the present day Yoruba youths are a sell-out. No passion. No fire. With this trend,Yorubaland wil go extinct in less than 71 yrs
Very unfortunate.

Ebukaobi:
Colins Amadi, we know ourselves so no need to deny please

Dont you think it is time you stop attaching yourselves to the SS?

No kobo from igboland has been used to develop Yorubaland that you all troop to on a daily basis.

What is the percentage of Nigerian oil resource base located in the SE? Less than 2% . Ondo, Ogun and Lagos have 10 times the oil in the whole of alaigbo.

Apart from that, Yorubas have been feeding igbos since the end of the civil war when Ojukwu wasted millions of life due to the typical igbo behavior of disrespecting fellow Nigerians.

There is no village in Yorubaland that you will not find igbo refugees seeking comfort and livelihood. They run away from their own villages and towns to escape poverty and desolation. Yorubas have always helped Igbos to rebuild their lives but igbos will always act like ungrateful peasants,

Look at the case of Akure, millions of 2 by 2 shop owners bought a jeep for an illiterate igbo man and called him Eze and he decided to step on Yoruba toes. You know the result. He was flogged like a common goat and now igbos are protesting like kids.

Igbos will continue to be flogged like animals until they see sense and recognize their immigrant status. Even if igbos spend 1000 years in Yorubaland, they will still be igbos and cannot disrespect Yoruba laws

These are the rules

1. Recognize your immigrant status. Igbo can never be Yoruba. You are guests in Yorubaland

2. Obey the customary laws of your host communities. Failure to do so will result in the type of disgrace faced by the useless eze.

3. Nigeria is a country but there is a reason why we have states and different jurisdictions. The SW is Yorubaland. Millions of igbos see the SW as Canaan that flows with milk and honey. If you cannot obey the laws, stay in Alaigbo and starve to death if you want.

4. Yorubas dont care if you seek independence from Nigeria, that is your business. But keep Yorubas out of it. They are not your nannies. You dont need to seek their consent or approval or cry like babies everyday.

Ebukaobi:
Amadi, you are not making sense.

Are you drunk because you sound incoherent.

Igbos only voted for Jonathan and by extension, GEJ because they were ordered to do so by their Ijaw masters. Dont get it twisted, Igbos were rape.d by Ijaws at the last elections.

Igbos voted Apga at the senatorial and HOA level but because of igbo shortsightedness and stupidity decided to vote for their PDP IJaw overlord for the presidential elections. What was the outcome? The PDP stole the mandate of Apga with reckless abandon. I will also remind you that Igbos being lazy people did not turn out in their numbers to vote. The SE had less than 20% voter turn out.

SS and SE are not the same and can never be. This has been discussed and SSners have rejected any association with Igbos. The SE is an under-developed region in Nigerian, very resource poor and cannot sustain itself. This is the fact.

Sunday Oliseh with middle name - Ogochukwu publicly denounced any useless igbo heritage. Rotimi Amaechi publicly said that Ikwerres are not Igbos. Even the Wike that igbos are now worshipping dare not say that he is Igbo. So much for SS/SE unity

I think you are mistaken. The SE region has never ever contributed 1 kobo to the development of any part of Yorubaland. Rather Igbos have benefited immensely from Yorubas and the opportunities their land provides for poor igbos that troop there everyday.

Apart from Yoruba funds that are transferred to keep igbos alive in the SE, Yorubas also accommodate, feed and provide opportunities for destitute igbos refugees. Remember that it got to a point that Igbos were deported to alaigbo when the problem became too much for Yorubas. Igbos still cry about it till today.


I have never heard of a Yoruba person that is proud to live in alaigbo. It is considered a shame and a sign of failure for Yorubas to live in igbo enclaves but the reverse is the case with igbos. There is jubilation whenever they arrive in Yorubaland because they know they can have a chance to be proper human beings with dignity.

Igbos hate the success of Yorubas. They hate their collective intelligence and unity of purpose. Forget the internet bravado, 99% of igbos secretly admire Yorubas and their tradition.

The poor hungry ones like you are the people shouting Biafra. Most Igbos will commit suicide if they tell them they no longer have access to Yorubaland. How will Igbos exist without Yorubas? Remember that the only reason Igbos are angry with Awolowo and Yorubas is because they did not join the Igbos to exit Nigeria. Igbos cannot be happy or fulfilled without Yoruba's approval.

Yorubas will be the happiest people on earth if igbos can achieve their Biafra dream because they can stop feeding you and concentrate on their own people.

Mogidi:
It would be wrong for him to call himself the Eze of Akure, if however he was the Eze Ndigbo of Akure, I see no justification in the Deji meddling in the affairs of his Igbo subjects.

chrisblack:
what are you saying.Akurere is a very old kingdom.with recorded history of over 1000 years.tell how many of the so-called Igbo even know their own history and tradition. Their is know king of Igbo again in Akure.its going to be reffered to as chief of Igbo.That's what the kings says.Get you its is domain.Go and read the history of Akure. It does son take the kingdom and effort to send them away.They will of their own accord leave willingly. Hear what happened between them and idanre years back then you will know what am saying.they are very humble but tough in their resolve.

MrMbaM:
I know those cursed wanderers can only protest, a shameless and worthless tribe of cursed animals. There eze was flogged and they are protesting, those coward can only rant online. Igalas continue to behead them in Anambra but they are begging the government, never seen a cowardly tribe like this before, same they protest in Imo when Fulani raped there women. Bunch of cursed nitwit. Spits on all yeebhoes.
