In your days, did you guys even have uniforms? tongue

Of course, Lagos tries to flow with "megacity standard". Nigeria will never have the likes of Fashola again. The man was too much!


Which days are you talking about? You mean our days? grin cheesy

The Ambode guy looks like he's here to mess up all of Fashola's work.

I remember watching his pre-election debate with Agbaje, I wasn't really impressed

Agbaje was really eloquent and came up brilliant ideas but he was a fffff.oooooo.lll so fv.ck his Ideas

But I'll still give Ambode some time though,I think its still too early to rate him.The Governor of Lagos is like the Governor of Nigeria so he has a lot on his shoulders

The worst part of it is that 5 out of the 6 South-west states are on Red(Shortfalls) and some Yoruba otondos be jumping on biafran threads insulting romanis forgetting our own issues.Awon otondo meji grin cheesy

They won't talk about their own issues, instead they jump around the whole place calculating Anambra figures whether it's higher than that of South-west states.Some of our people no dey shame

Iya Agba we can make non white-collar jobs look cool if we can modernise them.Its all about packaging.If you want to be a carpenter, be an educated carpenter.

I believe by now, after several political successes and failures, Yorubas would reflect on the import of the phrase "Oba mewa, Igba mewa".

Let's get away from the mindset of comparing and start demanding for delivery. Fashola had what he was good for and Ambode has what he is good for. The two are never going to perform at same level but each must deliver what he has withing his capability to make happen. What we want is a build up so each successor picks up at value point a and delivers at value point z for the incoming administration to build more value on.

I'm so pained by the stats above with respect to Osun state.

Osun state's fiscal policies need a complete overhaul.

Aregbe, though has some good plans and policies in place, lacks the intellectual wherewithal to manage a financially decrepit state like Osun.

No doubt, he has failed the people of the state.

However, the background story/history and demographics of these countries are different from Nigeria. It is better to have a small and functioning country, than a big for nothing shyte that Nigeria is.

I won't talk much about Brazil cos it is similar to America. Slave and slave owners, with few natives. And according to racial classification, Brazil is about 90% white cos the Pardos see themselves more as Caucasians until recently.

Let me start with India. There is a reason why the old India was divided into two: India and Pakistan. And Pakistan also got divided into two: Pakistan and Bangladesh. The current India is predominantly Indo-European and they're mostly Hindus and Sikhs - hence there is caste system there. Also, it's easy to govern cos the Indo-Europeans control everything. I won't even call India a shinning example cos it still has a long way to go, but they're getting there and they have the right structure to turn their fortunes around.

With China, the country is over 90% Han Chinese, with a civilisation that is over 3,000 years old. And despite the fact the they are basically the same, you can't move from one region to live in a next region in China without permit. Hence it is easy to govern. Same people, same language, same religion and within a structure that enhances evenly distributed developments everywhere.

Now let's talk about Nigeria: apart from only having huge population in common with these other countries - what else do they have in common? I'm not against having a big country that can actually work/prosper...but once you analyse Nigeria properly, it lacks everything required for a big country to prosper. I would like you and/or anyone to cite any country in the world, with the same ethnic demographic as Nigeria - where three groups are almost the same size, and with evenly divided religions that has ever prospered. Once I see one, I will start supporting Nigeria with everything I have.

I just want to see a black country that is actually working, no matter how small it is, in my lifetime.
Valid points, but we must do a lot differently not to end up like every other African country that seceded. I see a common identity in the people of Eritrea, south sudan and others yet they worse off than they were.

Re: Yoruba Commonwealth and Politics by zimoni(f): 10:56am On Nov 10, 2015
Thanks quimicababes, you've contributed immensenly to this thread.

To me, that table is an eyesore. Osun State sits in the last on the table. My dear Osun State.

Aregbesola, may Sango punish you this morning for putting that state into mess. Your economic team you brought from Lagos did a very bad job. Osun guys have been running that state successfully until you brought your quack economists from Lagos.

Senate need to pass a law that will take solid minerals from FG's non-exclusive list. Illegal miners are smiling to the bank now while states are languishing in poverty.

FG need to encourage states to look inward. That will control illegal mining and push state governors to look for investors because they know what are going to get monthly from mining of the solid minerals in their states.

Say 35% for FG, 35% for Investor and 30% for States(20% for States and 10% for LGs).

Something needs to be done urgently before Nigeria becomes another Zimbabwe.

But please, I beg you curse these folks with whatever voodoo you have at ya disposal. Whatever mod that moved the thread and whoever reported the thread should be cursed and let the gods do their part.

I saw the snakey biitch, isalegan, viewing this thread earlier. I bet she was the one who reported the thread. And I suspect one of the handles that posted on this thread is definitely one of her alternate handles. The diabolical sket is the biggest anti-Yoruba snitch on this forum.

Surely the Alamalas are crucial to the society and every Omoluabi should wish them well

What's life without the Alamalas?

As per them Oloso,of course its the same mawffughs who roam about during the day running things in the night as well

In Lagos,Dem shinanas are the ones running things.They own the Oloso industry cool and their population is huge shocked

Chances are Its shinanas running things in Ibadan as well

Shinanas are the romani version of Olosos grin but you know they will always tower above their Yoruba counterparts in that aspect wink


See as my egbon dey roll out prayer because of food grin.

Thanks for schooling me to what shinanas are, at first I was lost like, ewo tun ni shinana. And truly, dem many for that angle.

If they switch characters by day and night then I'm hoping to run into some of the regular chicks playing hard to get doing their thing at nights so the game can change. cool
