Unfortunately, you're not looking at long term interests. Stop thinking like the political illiterates who shape the political movements of the SE.

The political stance of Yorubas in 2019 would take the SE approximately a decade to decode and another decade to understand.

Chai you wicked
There's a reason why we are politically Sophisticated

Markfemi2:
I have never seen a case of poor defeated tribe like igbos who abuses people that conquered it
Today their governor is saying no to restructuring and seccesion lol

Unity beggar we are leaving you to enjoy ur barren north colleagues

shukuokukobambi:
What nonsense right? Is it about right? or about what is necessary for Yoruba nation? Of what importance is an Osinbajo presidency right after a buhari presidency beset with so many problems? What is in the aso rock sef? After OBJ? After Osinbajo?

So you need me to tell you that all that quit notice to Ibos and the rants against Osinbajo is simply pre-2019 politics? Where is the Dr Farouk who wrote an Op-ed accusing Osinbajo of tribalism which our OSU chest beaters took up? That one didn't sell so they've commissioned another option which is this one today. Only people who are afraid adopt such tactics of crying wolf.

For you to compare this scenario with the GEJ-Yaradua scenario is sad because it shows you have not thought this thing through. Are they the same? Did Buhari not transmit a letter? Is there a vacuum in aso rock? Has the constitution being flouted?

Thank God most Yoruba are not rash like you. We might not have survived till this point in this treacherous country. We'll pick restructuring or disintegration over an Osinbajo presidency anytime!!

I salute your cowardice.

Stop forming sophistication here. Behind it all is an unfounded fear for the north

It cost Tinubu an 'arm and a leg' to oust a sitting president and replace him with a Fulani man.
And now you are saying Osinbajo should not reap the fruit of that labour as providence would have it?

GEJ was sponsored by Yoruba all the way from VP to presidency. It cost him almost nothing.
Yet despite being a minority clueless Ijaw man he took the bull by the horn and sought a second term against the zoning principle in his party.

So Osinbajo is only good as VP abi?
If the presidency is useless to Yorubas, why did we even take a far less significant vice presidency slot at all?

Why did we even participate in national politics and oust GEJ if we didnt stand to benefit anything thereof?

If PMB returns to contest in 2019 and renominates Osinbajo as VP, will you still express this sudden 'hatred' for national positions?

Do you need any more evidence that you are just a fearful coward?

shior!

All I see is sheer cowardice and fear of the abookis masqueraded as sophistication.

I'd rather Osinbajo contested and lost in 2019 than he chickened out of the race because of fear of what the abokkis will do.

The abookis themselves will salute our cowardice if he did that.

It is easier for the abookis to agree to restructuring under Osinbajo as president than under a Fulani.

The ball is in our court.

Infact, I see PMB backing an Osinbajo presidency in 2019 from wherever he may be.

No you are not leaving them. You are angry that they are not following you. It's infantile and wise adults always see through the childish antics of children.

We did this sort of things when we were kids-you know like when your friend keeps repeating 'I am going' 'I am going' because he wants you to beg him to stay or for you to follow him.

Keep on deluding yourself.
No more oil for you.
No more cheap labour in the name of NYSC.
No more free loading off the South

For the life of me I don't know how this atavistic desire, this ethno - tribal sentiment to want a man from a particular ethnic group to be President, Ambassador, Minister soothes people. Of what benefit is it to you, as in you if a man from your ethnic group becomes the President of Nigeria apart from the fact that it just gives you empty bragging rights? Okay even if you do benefit is that how we should be thinking in this age and time? How has such thinking benefited us as a people?

Gowon was Military President for 9 years- the average Plateau man has nothing to show for it, Murtala, Shagari, Buhari had their time-there's still soul wrenching poverty in the North, Babangida ruled for 8 and Abdulsalam - Minna is a spectacle of disorderliness, Abacha ruled yet his people are poor till date, Obasanjo was President for 8 years and Yorubaland is not an Eldorado, Yar'adua did his time yet Katsina State is a broken place ravaged by poverty, Goodluck was there for 6years or so yet he did absolutely nothing in Otuoke, Buhari is there now yet the commoner from Katsina suffers privation.

This is our political experience yet we are not savvy enough to see that there are just two tribes in Nigeria - the elites and the rest of us. I will never be deceived to think that the ordinary Yoruba man, Tiv, Igede, Ijaw, Fulani, Igbo, Hausa, Nupe is the problem of this country. Never! It is the culture formed and perpetuated by the elites drawn from whatever ethnic group that constitutes the problem of Nigeria.

Oil for me? What has oil done for me? Is Nigeria Libya? Even a 6 months old baby can see through you. Get savvy please. This your approach is too staid, too pedestrian, too weak and I like the high ground and deft way the Yorubas who posted on this thread took-they refused to swallow your bait!

Oil? I guess you have drank enough of it.
Look in the mirror - that's who is deluding himself.

vanbonattel:
Of course we can move into any part of Nigeria to do business and make money. Doesn't mean the natives are living better than us. Yoruba towns are living in abject poverty, to the extent that they have to cut human parts to survive. Most others turn to touting and agbero to stay alive.

What is the use of your IGR when they are using it to build infrastructure I will still enjoy? I am your king and your ppl should work and create more IGR for me The power plants you build, no be who pay for light them go give light? How much do you have to pay for power? Poor people just making noise.

I know that the international airport is giving your people nightmare as you fear lagos airport will be used as car park.

Hmmm......
Good one here......
I think osibanjo presidency is the pawn we need to restructure this country.......
We should only support odibanjo in 2019 if he agrees to restructure.....
I know deep down osibanjo wants this country restructured n if given the chance he will do it......
We should push him to do it........
There's no better time to restructure this country than now.......
The present state of the nation demands it.......
Osibanjo should only agree not to contest in 2019 if the northerners agree to restructuring between now and then.....

Nice. If you observe, since PMB has been away, the northerners have been agitating in diverse forms.

They are no longer comfortable with the system.

Just change Exclusive List to Inclusive List.
Make the States Fully Autonomous.
Make them contribute uniform rates based on their individual Preceding Year's Earning to F.G.
Restrict F.G to Foreign Affairs, Military and Treaties.
The North, SE, SW etc will beg Osinbajo to set the Ball rolling.

Everything you said here was true. The elites are all for themselves and no one else. Though I think Buhari is different, he's just ill. I think he has good intentions.

chuksanambra:
Point of correction. The Boko Haram-ravaged North-East posted higher revenues than the disgrace that is known as South East.

The leaders in the East are worse than Boko Haram.

chei!! Internet has truly suffered.

Tinubu lost an arm and leg? Why not come out openly to say Tinubu planned Buhari's sickness all along so he can kaput for Osinbajo to become president? So the childish nonsense you wrote here is proof that you're a fearless guy?

Once again, thank God that even the Tinubu you so eulogized here has more sense than the drivel you just put up there. Even the ibo we say are tactless would exhibit better control and wisdom.

So long guy

Stop, stop, stop it! Buhari is no different. He is steeped and dyed in the same hue as are other politicians. Don't give any excuse for him. Don't!

You are a small boy!

If you dont know the meaning of providence, arm and leg, why not use a dictionary?

Nigerians will decide if Osinbajo remains in Aso rock in 2019 and not fearful dullards like you.

All.these anonymous keyboard warriors that keep fighting imaginary battles sef. He used a figure of speech that even his puny brains can't understand

Who will chain this alariwo of Africa? Why not wait for the 'battle' to start before expending your little sense and muscles on this so called threat? Is your courage failing you? Are you afraid? Why are you sounding like a terrified OSU screaming coward everywhere?

Idiot who wants to fight Tinubu's battle for him doesn't even understand the English he's trying to use. The dunce doesn't know that "arm and leg" as used in his post is a figure of speech. Who paid your school fees?

Abo oro la so fun omoluabi, to ba de inu e, a di odindi. Now let me break it down for your mumu a$$ since you're not an omoluabi

The threat or ultimatum by those clowns you're scared of up north is of no use as long as buhari is alive hence why sensible omoluabis like myself, Tinubu and Osinbajo ain't perturbed. Tell them to kill buhari first then we know. But for now, Osinbajo isn't bothering about that. Only the jobless low life political thugs like you are making noise

If you still don't get it at this point, your case is irremediably bad

Oponu! Oya tell me what figure of speech it is: irony? metaphor? Pun? Personification? Oxymoron?
Just tell me!!

And this argument is about Osinbajo contesting in 2019 in the event that he emerges substantive president between now and then and your attempts to give cowardice-inspired excuses masked as sophistication why he must not run.

Stop shifting the goalpost.

You're a dunce. Yoruba are too discrete to go on the roof top to be shouting about their plans for an event that hasn't happened. Wise men keep strategies like that to their chest. Have you killed buhari yet? Idiot oshi

Have you head tinubu, bisi Akande or any of the Yoruba APC leaders speak on it? Its because they have that inate Yoruba intelligence that plans in silence while the adversary is raving and ranting. Of course you're too dumb to know this.

How many Fulani have you killed so far since their ultimatum? Internet warrior oponu that wants to fight for tinubu's "arm and leg" that he lost in the battle to install buhari

I won't support Osinbajo for 2019 presidency because we have bigger fish to fry at home. Go and die if it hurts you

Olodo ni e!

An arm and a leg is an idiomatic expression. No wonder you spent 3 hours trying to figure out what figure of speech it is. Ode oshi!

Osinbajo does not the support of lily livered cowardly loooonatics like you who give up before the game has even started in 2019.

Go and die!!
