Tominiola:
So Jude and Cheta are also from the west? Okay o

prince985:
All of dem Yoruba

Pritypussi:
Osus won't talk about that.. it's why and how they brought in Buhari that concerns them.

I wonder why Turai didn't poison badluck then when he was in her captivity.. we would have been in a far better state now

deji15:
It does not matter. They are minority and few in numbers. The fact remains that the Yorubas sent their Otuoke kleptomania son into political oblivion and there is no apology for that. Ayi to eyin ka ni a n fi owo bo.

Tominiola:
It does matter. Look Nigerian will never be able to move forward ti aba towo omo wa ba sho. We need to stop pointing fingers and stop being so damn triblastic. It is only us that see are selfs ass different. We stay generalising. No wonder why Nigerian is a damn mess. Do you think Oyinbo people can differentiate an Igbo people from Yoruba person? Lmaoooo! Hello no! At the end of the day... all I'm saying is a house divided CANNOT and will NOT ever stand!

0b10010011:

The tradition and ideology to stand by what we believe-in has brought the Yoruba race this far. Call us names, It won us every accolade we have today.

Tell me what your ideology has gotten your region in the last 5 decades till date? Under-Development? Marginalization? Hate? Political Irrelevance? Sporadic Migration to the West you detest?


Tell me more.................

Nigga44:
Yorubba people are eternal slaves

Tominiola:
Gbayi! Don't mind them Awon under cover fans.

ipodstinks:
yes oo, including chita nwanze and Jude. They are Yoruba. Even okorocha.

mr1759:
this post is to remind buhari that Yoruba ppl put him there,

so that buhari came leave the government for osibanjo


but Hausa say na lie, na we do our thing

the Yoruba are noise maker who take credit for making noise

Tominiola:
Receive sense pls! Yoruba people put him that? do you have concrete evidence to back up this your theory/statement ? Cuz you seen one small list does not mean yorubas put him there. As we nation (I.e. Yoruba, Igbo, Hausa, Benin, Calabar) we put him there

0b10010011:
And what have you masters-Afonja`s, done this time?

MichaelUweh:
I repeat myself again that President Buhari will never die for a Yoruba man to automatically become the president of Nigeria, the reason is that they are too greedy that is one of the reason they betrayed GEJ...Bihari must complete his tenure because of yorubas

Yemi Adamolekun
Is the Executive Director of Enough-is-Enough a coalition of Civil Society Groups formed in response to the perceived corruption and policy inconsistencies presented by the GEJ government in response to the removal of Fuel Subsidies and fuel price increase. They state their charter as 'EnoughisEnough Nigeria (EiE) is a coalition of individuals and organizations committed to instituting a culture of good governance and public accountability in Nigeria through active citizenship. We are non-partisan, neither are we a platform for the actualization of any individual’s political ambitions'. Yemi maintained a profile as a dogged anti-corruption activist throughout the government of GEJ. Interestingly and arguably Enough-is-Enough appears to have had enough as they are thoroughly lacking in the same gusto with which they pursued accountabilty under the previous governement. Almost lurching into oblivion they came back into recent reckoning with the controversy surrounding the nomination of self styled celebrity 'Bobrisky' as a panelist on one of their social media sensitization seminars.

Babatunde Rosanwo
Online Twitter intellectual, whose missives served to highlight the plain stupidities of the GEJ government and the potential gains of a Buhari government. Rosanwo campaigned actively for PMB offering 'storified' 'fact checks' in support of his principal, not surprising as Rosanwo in 2014 had already began laying foundations for the justification and viability of the APC as a megaparty, as such he was arguably an 'early adopter' which may be why He raised dust in a lenghthy online rejoinder over Jude Chideonwo and Adebola William's alleged proclivity for profit over 'principles' when they switched sides from doing Public Relations business with GEJ to the PMB Campaign organisation.

Olusegun Dada
For someone who was at a loss as to the inferred legitimacy of the 2011 Jonathan bid for the presidency by many in spite of the antecedents, actions and inactions of GEJ, his unabashed support for the person and candidature of GMB/PMB smacks of a concentrated dose of selective amnesia. It is also interesting to note that his observations with regard to what the previus governmemnt did or did not do with regard to the Fuel subsidy issue apply to the current government viz high cost of fuel, insecurity, opacity in governance, corruption in high places and the burgeoning debt profile and so on. Nothing, it appears has fundamentally changed. Olusegun's gift of the gab was utilised to spur the younger generation to political action and garner support for GMB/PMB having been a registered member of the CPC the party under which PMB launched his 2011 bid for the presidency. Olusegun's resolve to actively participate in the politics cannot be faulted, however the choice of principal remains to be justified.

https://fabmagazineonline.com/wp-content/uploads/2014/02/Book-Review-Secret-Lives-Of-Baba-Segis-Wives-Lola-Shoneyin-FAB-Magazine-2.jpg
Lola Shoneyin
An avid Buharist whose father incidentally was incarcerated by PMB (incidentally, Shoneyin senior is an active senior member of the APC), Lola Shoneyin sought to justify GMB/PMB's candidature at every turn. The writer and poet put pen to paper and 'gifted' the world with the article titled 'How my Father's jailer can offer Nigeria a fresh start' published by Guardian UK and made for a fitting romantic narrative of GMB's turtous and self sacrificial quest to attain the presidency and lead Nigeria out of the current (then) quagmire. There is yet some irony in the title of the afore mentioned article as Shoneyin, a writer would be familiar with the use and import of words - 'offer' retains a weighty sense of entitlement but never mind. She travelled with the Presidential Campaign having been embedded for just over three months and from that experience surmised that Nigeria cannot afford to be handled with kid gloves hence the need for someone who supposedly personified anti-corruption. A thought which hints dangerously at the manifestaion of Stockholm Syndrome. It turns out that the 'anything but Jonathan' mentality birthed a blinkered army of possibly well meaning and often priviledged 'youths' for whom emotion overwhelmed reason.

Tola Sarumi
The London, England based social commentator offered constructive critiscisms of the GEJ conundrum and subsequently amped up the volume with offers of the positive prospects of an alternative government headed by PMB, incidentally the debate on the veracity of issues raised and the points offered in defense by Ms. Sarumi have since been eclipsed by recent events in an almost classic case of "I told you so". Ms. Sarumi was quite vociferous via her online outings in pointing out the ineptitude of the GEJ government, regaling her readers with the arrogance, impunity and 'silent traetment' on key National issues which had become the hallmark of the GEJ administration. Between intermittent bursts of objectivity she marshalled her reasons why even with his downsides General Buhari's unassailable integrity was the much needed antidote to Nigeria's maladminstration, a 'cure all' or 'gbogbo-ise' if you will. Her penchant for stirring up debates lent her the 'international exposure' tag after tweeting recently that Nigerian's in the abroad (or diaspora) are better placed to offer solutions to Nigeria's many woes and 'take charge' having lived in a 'working sytstem' stating that 'international exposure' is a prerequisite. Beyond there appears to be no evidence that Ms. Sarumi has been as critical of the current administration as the past one and one only wonders why?

Feyi Fawehinmi
Known to many as 'doubleph', Feyi Fawehinmi turned on the taps with a series of articles in the mold of a 'Global and National Economics for Dummies' volume. He made previously complicated topics easily understandeable helping to break down previously unheard or misunderstood terminologies that were the preserve of bespectacled university dons. Mr. Fawehinmi wrote about the rebasing of the economy via GDP indices, the deregulation of the oil and gas sector the new mortgage policy and covered several topical issues in many more articles featured on his blog aguntasolo.com. Mr. Fawehinmi's knack for distilling the key issues from the usual ambiguity surrounding government policy lent him several references and features on main stream media, having provided a 'man on the street' braekdown of the (mostly negative) consequences of the GEJ led administrations policy direction . Mr. Fawehinmi however took deep offence on the 'youth' involvement in the organisation and handling of the 'Lunch with Jonathan' event oragnised by Messrs Debola Williams and Chude Jideonwo, his primary grouse being the alleged sharing of money to participants and the opacity with which the whole event was prepared.

Cheta Nwanze
From Daily Times to 234next to being one time managing editor of Y-magazine (of the Y-Naija, Red Media organisation) a staple feature on omojuwa.com Cheta Nwanze or Chxta as his twitter handle suggests has always been at the forefront of digital media combined with intellect and wit Mr. Nwanze has lived on the edge of bucking trends and pushing for revolutions however subtle, he joined the ranks of the online and somewhat offline opposition and 'youth voice' in the previous administration via his being a founding member of the 'Enough is Enough' platform along with Gbenga Sesan, Chude Jideonwo and Adebola Williams even lending his 'voice' to the '100kVoices' campaign organised by the Kola Oyeniyin founded GenVoices. His recent writings suggest a hankering for 'President Osinbajo' amongst a flurry of remonstrations on the deceitfulness, inadequacies, ineptitude and so-called northenisation of the current government. In one article Mr. Nwanze was bold enough to assert that the previous government was better than the current one. Why then was he so convinced that PMB was the answer and not anyone else other than PMB?GEJ? For someone who hosts a 'history class' column it appears he hasn't quite learned from the past.

Omoyele Sowore
This dogged self styled citizen reporter and activist has cut a profile as a controversial whistle blower who sometimes allys with his prior targets to bring down new targets as showcased in the El Rufai / Sanusi saga where the GEJ government allegedly attempted fairly succesfully to unseat the CBN governor. Mr El Rufai and Sanusi had been previous targets but were now allies in reporting the story blow-by-blow. It is also curious that Mr. Sowore has since turned the tap off on reportage of public officials previously covered who are now operatives under the current government eg Fashola (Illegal leasing of LASG helicopter to Caverton) and Amaechi (Controversial Port Harcourt Mono Rail).

These guys and gals literally 'live on' nairaland 24/7. Some used all manner of words You know their exploits feel free to 'travel back in time' with their posts

intrepid:
I noticed that also. Only about 2 of them aren't Westerners.

They never learn. From pre-independence alignment of West with North and eventual dribbling of them by the North, even up to 2015, they haven't learned.

Ojukwu and Awo had an agreement about Nigeria when the former released him from prison but, what happened?

The north used him against Ojukwu but later dribbled Awolowo, they used Abiola to dribble him again later and finally, they dribbled Abiola himself in 1993.

Now, they have dribbled Tinubu again.

I hope, you guys will learn.

That is not how human beings work. If you invested emotionally in a cause, you will convince yourself that you were right all along, despite all evidence to the contrary.

I doubt that any of those guys will come out today and say they erred. The most they will say is that Buhari has made some errors before seguing to: GEJ was worse anyway!
