I tot you has something to say..but I was dissapointed...bye

Tunami:
you don't understand me, i mean their alliance with fulani people in the of one nigeria. Example look at what happened in lagos recently, can that happen in hausaland?

Those Hausa people would not have done such if we had our own army and police in Yoruba land and yes Hausas have been worsted in attacks in Kaduna and Kano by Northern Christians even when they were in power. Its all about getting guns and there are Northern Christian Generals as well who would not sit by and watch when the shit hits the fan.

let the southern nigeria break first and every1 can go their seperate ways,if not we will be slaves to d north forever.

Don't be an idiot. Nobody is a slave to North and Northerners have been ruined more by their own leadership. I am in Nigeria Ogun state making these posts. The Yoruba do not need the help of other Southerners to get out of Nigeria and other Southerners or Northerners do not need the help of the Yoruba if they approach the matter in the right way.

A good portion of Yoruba land is in Niger, Kwara and Kogi state, so it is not a matter of South and North for the Yoruba. We are Yoruba, not Southerner or Northerner.

In the past, when people used to say the then General Buhari was sponsoring Boko Haram, I used to argue against them saying Boko Haram originated from Kanuris disgruntled with Nigeria and that the politicians so far associated with Boko Haram are all PDP and not from General Buhari's party, so he most probably knows nothing about the terrorist organisation. Meanwhile the former President Jonathan publicly stated that there were Boko Haram in his government. The meaning of the statement was made clear last year after President Buhari won the elections when the DG NAFEST, an Igbo man stated publicly that his men arrested 12 trailer loads of guns and ammunitions at a border post headed into Nigeria illegally and that it was the former NSA, Colonel Dasuki that came to release them by force. He said the NSA threatened him openly that he would finish him off if he tried to obstruct him in any way. The weapons entered the country and the killings of innocent people continued. The DG reported the matter to President Jonathan and nothing was done about it. The NSA remained in his position. President Jonathan was such an inept President. All he did was to publicly note that the Boko Haram are now domiciled in his government. Also, he himself was accused by no less a person than his fellow Bayelsan, Henry Okah the Niger Delta freedom fighter of masterminding two or three bomb blasts in Abuja in which innocent Nigerians were bombed to death. That is by the way.

I had thought General Buhari had no direct link with Boko Haram but how Boko Haram are able to maintain their hold on territories, confronting soldiers and etc remain a mystery as it requires huge funding to be able to do that. However, when President Buhari resumed as President, he immediately reinstated a police commissioner that was dismissed for facilitating the escape from prison of Kabir Sokoto, the Boko Haram bomber. He reinstated the police officer and paid the backlog of his salaries. He did not stop at that. There was a certain General Ahmed who commanded against the Boko Haram in the Northeast, men under him opened fire on his convoy, attempting to assassinate him for betraying them to Boko Haram and getting their comrades killed. An inquiry was set up by the last administration and the General was retired or dismissed from the army. That General Ahmed has been reinstated by the President Buhari administration. Also President Buhari released at least 182 Boko Haram detainess upon resuming as President. So President Buhari has shown himself clearly as at least a Boko Haram sympathiser. Thesame President Buhari was described as a dollar billionaire by Chief Okey Nwosu, so he might as well be the major Boko Haram financier as well. Why not?

Now, army officers who were really fighting the Boko Haram like the junior officers arraigned for mutiny and like Brigadier Ransome Kuti who was dismissed from the army for not sitting on his arse to wait for a Boko Haram battalion bearing down on him when half of his men were practicing Muslims are the ones that are being victimised while the Boko Haram collaborators in the Army and the police are being reinstated, promoted and decorated by the President Buhari administration. It is left for people to put two and two together to arrive at four.

Yoruba army officers and men, younger than myself, my age mates and older than me, with young wives and little children are being wasted regularly in the Northeast. This must stop. These people in the North east want Sharia. So they must have their Sharia, the country must break up and our people must return home to secure here. Those in the North east who don't want sharia must declare their own sovereignty, then the whole world will support them, if only to buy them weapons. I have seen many obituaries of army men of Ilesa origin who died at the hands of Boko Haram leaving behind their young ones and loved ones. This is not fair. They are not dying for a good cause.

The President can not be sending people young enough to be his children to go and die in the North east while he himself is a Boko Haram supporter. This must stop.

The only respite for the Yoruba is to be in a separate nation as the largest group in Africa, then set examples for others. A small nation like Switzerland has produced 133 academic Nobel laureattes while we have only one. That is a shame. We are human beings as well and we should contribute fully our quota to human development and that can never be possible while we remain members of an evil and insane entity like Nigeria. So we have to get out.

We need our army, police, navy, currency, control over our economy and everything. That way non Yorubas will never again be in a position to gang up and start destroying lives and properties in Yoruba land as some Hausa do and also as some Fulani cattle rearers do. It has to stop.

Let us get our acts together. All Yoruba cities from Niger state to the Atlantic ocean must as one opt out of Nigeria as a matter of urgency. We don't need regionalism or true federalism in Nigeria. What is best is a separate national identity for our people.

May God assist us.

Masterpiece. If most yoruba thought like this, we will all be happy. What you said is exactly what SE and SS want!

take easy bro, u can't be more yoruba than me. Point is yoruba can't just wake up 1day and say we want out. The easiest part is dat since the almagamation treaty signed in 1914 has expired last year, the southern can simply go to world congress and say we want out and after that everyone can form is own republic. Simple!!! Why do we have to shed unnecessary blood?

Which blood? Nobody will fight. The FG is owing soldiers presently. They can't fight and if they choose to fight, it means they are fools. The whole world has been expecting Nigeria to break up for years. Who will stop the Yoruba from pulling out of Nigeria if we want to?. Nobody can stop the Yoruba from pulling out of Nigeria. Nobody. The Yoruba started this country and it has failed as a corporate body, so we must kill it. If not for people like Sir Macaulay, the British were not favourably disposed to joining Nigeria together. We as Yoruba gained independence in 1956 and if we had wanted, we would have opted out of Nigeria but we did not at that time. No group is bigger or has more numbers than the Yoruba in Africa. We can break up this country easily without violence.

All the reps of our people, traditional rulers, custodians of British protection agreements and political reps can notify Abuja and the UN that we are opting out. The UN is more important. We have influential people across the world. There are 1001 reasons chief of which is that we are one people and nothing short of a country using one lingua franca of Yoruba befits us, Nigeria has been run down for decades, all our solutions and advises were not taken. We are a nation and can not be subjugated under a phony nation. Let Igbos, Hausas and etc form their own nations, we are no longer a party to Nigeria. Nigeria will be split with lightening speed and no lives will be lost. We will seize control of our destiny and start advancing as a people.

yorubas transcend d territory of nigeria u have to seize many lands before realization. U think fulani will leave ilorin just like that? Or u think republic of benin will give away their territory just like dat? Or south-south wil give isekiris or benin just like dat? Even among the yoruba kings there is cold war courtesy of sumpremacy.

There is no Fulani in Ilorin and Jebba that is 100 km North of Ilorin has an Oba even on the North side of River Niger. Igbomina and other Yoruba totally encircle Ilorin. Then the Emir of Ilorin is a Yoruba man of Hausa descent put there by the Sultan of Sokoto and Premier of Northern Nigeria just to spite the Yoruba. He did not put the Fulani people as Emir as it was impossible. Then the protection agreement of Ilorin with the British was signed by Balogun Ajikobi a descendant of Alaafin Abiodun and he is the paramount ruler of Ilorin in the eyes of the British, Ilorin people as at that time and all reasonable people today. Again the Balogun Ajikobi is Ilorin's paramount chief not the Emir of Ilorin. No Fulani in Ilorin though there are people of Fulani descent just like in other parts of Yoruba land. Yoruba land is contiguous from Southern Niger state to the Atlantic when we settle down we can form a union with Benin republic even up to Togo. Benin is a mix of Egun, Yoruba and Bariba. Badagry here too is Egun while Ajase or Porto Novo in Benin is Yoruba. When we get to that bridge we cross it. Again there is no Fulani iN Ilorin just some Yoruba of Fulani descent and such people are all over Yoruba land.

Which Fulani are you talking of? Are people coming from Sokoto over Tapa land and Jebba to claim Ilorin? Tapa do not belong to Fulani. Many Etsus are not Fulani. I think only the one in Bida is Fulani and some Tapa have been trying to unseat him. Suleja and Abuja have Hausa Sarkis. The Fulani are in no position to muscle anything with the Yoruba, they dont have the resources to do that and they can not jump over Jebba, Tapa land to do that. Ilorin is totally cut off from the sphere of influence. If they are able to continue ruling the Hausas, they should thank their stars.
