Forget all the banters, let's be practical, the Igbos have been shouting about the Islamization of yorubaland by the likes of Raufu Aregbeshola even before the emergence of Buhari.

They observed that yoruba politicians of muslim extraction were always sympathetic to the Sultanate. Many of them are ready to sacrifice the blood of the yoruba christians to the advantage of the Fulani Jihadists.

Does anyone still disagree that Igbos are not foresighted?

GworoChewinMaga:
Afonja's 1817 rebellion and subsequent Jihadist raids by Awusa/Fulani/Yoruba Muslims from Ilorin had done so much damage to the power and stability of the Odua people. Lagos was invaded by British forces in 1851 with little or no resistance and formally annexed in 1861. The British maintained Lagos as a strategic port city from where they traded with the hinterland natives, mostly in slaves in exchange for guns. The British will arm both the Jihadist and the Yoruba resistance up until they were asked to broker a truce between Ilorin and Ibadan. The outcome of this, was the establishment of a full-fledged Emirate which became an extension of the Sokoto Caliphate. Sokoto never forgot this good will and as such were open to talks and trade with the British invaders. Then the Kiriji wars began - an inter-cine civil war among the Yorubas in their shrinking empire. The 16 yr conflict began from 1877 up till 1893. The British continued to support each warring faction to both elongate the conflict to further weaken the remnant of what was once the great Oyo empire and also to benefit financially from the senseless conflict.

The Yorubas will then approach the same British to help end the conflict and come and rule them. It is from this point that the British got a solid footing into Nigeria and in just 8yrs (1901) later, the entire Nigerian territory was declared a colony of Britain.

By 1914, out of financial and administrative exigency, the amalgamation of both Northern and Southern protectorates was declared by Lugard.

The period 1914-1960 were the glory years for the Yorubas as they witnessed no wars and Yoruba unity began to emerge.

In 1960, with the British departing, the Yorubas almost immediately began their unnecessary squabbles. Riots and electoral violence were a hallmark of the old Western Region electoral process. It seemed the Yoruba were not capable of deciding their leaders through democratic and civil means.

The fallout of the political crisis in the old Western Region has been linked to the motivation of the misplaced Marxist coup which will later kick start the Nigerian Civil war.

The Military era between 1966 -1979, saw a cessation of Yoruba acrimony and senseless warring among themselves only for it to rear it's ugly head during the civilian era of Shehu Shagari. The pattern of peaceful co-existence within the Yoruba peoples continues with subsequent military dispensations up until the return to democratic rule in 1999 and from where the Yorubas began their incessant warring over the ballot-box.

It is thus safe to assume the following;

1. That for all the talk of civility and sophistication, the Yoruba is incapable of deciding in a civil and democratic manner whom to lead or represent them.

2. SW Nigeria has been the pioneering region of all democratic vices such as ballot snatching, thuggery, voter disenfranchisement, voter enticement and what not.

3. That the Yoruba requires a powerful third party to administer peace and Justice among them.

Is this then no wonder why the average Yoruba is afraid of an independent sovereign state knowing fully well that a Yoruba Nation will be an anarchist pipe-dream.

Let us ask Azikiwe and Ironsi what happened to their Igbo foresight when one insisted that secession must be made illegal, and the other ensured that regionalism was supplanted by Unitary government.

Both policies have continued to be lamented over by their own tribesmen since 1966.

Yet the "myopic" Yoruba politician, Awolowo, warned on the need to have a secession clause. Such would have prevented Igbo misery and anguish a few years later.

Yoruba4Life:


At least they're NOT troublesome pple like Igbos. They tend to live in peace among us without any form of arrogance or foolishness... I'll choose that anyday over Igbo pple. The Igbos feel so pained that we Yorubas prefer to relate with the Hausas than you guys.
Until you guys learn to be civil and NOT Savages/Cannibals, then we can talk...

Bede2u:
Azikiwe was born in the north and empowered by lagos and accra. His world view is not a typical igbo man's world view. He is more of wazobia and would have been the best leader of a united Nigeria.

Aguiyi on the other hand is core Igbo warrior. Decree 34 was meant to help the military administration govern until an election can be made. There was no way a military administration will succeed if it was not in control of who becomes governor in the four regions. The decree was not meant to be transfered to a civilian constitution. So dont ever in ur life blame aguiyi for killing regionalism cos he didnt. The gowon govt created 12 states while the murtala govt created 19 states. And den the obj govt legalised it all in his 1979 constitution.
Pls learn ur history well.
