You keep deluding yourselves
If you are in front it is merit and if not it is not merit?

How come you were not ahead before Nigeria was created?

Where is the evidence for this aheadness

Your states are the dirtiest in Nigeria

Yet you continue talking nonsense about Merit

Is it Medicine,Engineering? the arts IT or Agriculture??

When Wole Soyinka won a Nobel prize typically you said it was not merit it was a conspiracy against Ibos
Yorubas are your masters anyday
Not only that their land is blessed unlike your godforsaken erosion ravaged space



We know the inferiority complex that is part or your psyche and just find you entertaining?

You're just a tribalist! Tribalism has never taken anybody anywhere so it wont take you anywhere. You keep holding unto Ironsi and linking him with Zik. These people are dead, you wanna die because of them? If Yorubas wanna secede,
we will support you whether you like it or not, not out of love per se buy because this will help our own seccession
ibos help is the last thing Yoruba need. What am i saying self, maybe we'd rather accept defeat (which is never going to happen even in a million years to come) than ask for help from ibos.

Under 1 Nigeria, there is nothing like Igbo or Yoruba land. Supporting one Nigeria during the civil war has consequences. Currently, we have more Igbos in Lagos than Yorubas who are not originally from lagos. This is an effect of 1 Nigeria.

ibos have always insisted there's no south which is true though well there might be, Yorubaland is just Yorubaland.

But you know if everything is left for merit, Igbos will be forward not because of oppression but due to hardwork. Lagos is a matter of time under 1 Nigeria!

Re: Open Letter To My Yoruba Brothers by DMerciful(m): 12:59am On Dec 29, 2019
Igbos tried to do it alone in 1967 but failed. Yorubas has not attempted because they know it will fail. Asari is joining Biafra but we know the end game for him is Niger Delta republic but he understands they cant do it alone so he is being reasonable. Forget this your pride that Yorubas can do it alone, no single southern group can!
Kapeter:
are you by chance asking for help from Yoruba? At least be more civil about it.

If we are to seccede, we would surely do that, alone as usual.

forget your opinion about yourself and ask what are peoples opinion about me.
For example people generally see the igbos as bussiness people who can survive even in desert.
They are the most talented black people in the world which is why they are called the japan of africa.infact anything not foreign is simply aba made qhich is quite cheaper.
But they see their disadvantage as emotional people that cant play politics in naija(which is liaring,betraying,stealing and bacjstabbing).
Most spiritually active people has said that the hope of africa been great lies in the hands of igbos.
Now Ijaw
now most people know that the richestand most blessed black people on earth are ijaws.
They are also the strongest and bravest tribe in naija.that if they gets anget the fg will rather beg than fight them.
Our disadvantage according to popular opinion is that we drink and fuk too mych.but is nobodys bussiness.lol.
Try and find outt about popular opinion about afonjas and leave the stories told in ibadan agbo,amala and ewedu joint.
I bet you will be ashamed.

Are you drunk or high? Which popular opinion should we go and find out about Afonja? The fact they dominate every aspect of Nigerian life and by a country mile in certain sectors like music, entertainment, IT, the formal/organised business sector et al? Some of you need to think before you talk because the minute you open your mouth it is obvious why you are losing in life.

If you produced a list of the richest 1000 people in Nigeria you would struggle to find a handful of Ijaws in there so where do you get your asinine opinion they are the "richest and most most blessed black people on earth"? Abeg what exemplary things are Ijaws doing in Nigeria let alone even mention the world and Ijaw in same sentence? It is people like you, with senseless utterances, likely drunken talk, that attract insult upon your ethnic group with the reality check slaps others have to use to knock sense into you. Sorry, and no pun intended, but Yorubas are not the mates of Ijaws at anything at all in Nigeria, Africa or the World.

Igbos understand that times have changed so restructuring is a good compromised besides a well restructured country is like individual countries in a large entity
Kapeter:
whao. So you mean people that were bold enough to asked for restructuring in the 90's during millitary era now doesn't ask for it anymore because they don't want to offend same fulani they faced as military?

So does that mean that ibos too doesn't want to offend somebody since you said, your agenda switched from secession to restructuring?

Oshigun:


No contradiction buddy. Yoruba man is generally happy with his culture, State and life in his part of Nigeria to the extent he is least likely to be itinerant of all Nigerians. That does not make us insulated from the general political culture of Nigeria that produces incompetent leaders. When I said Yorubas are inward looking it was to counter your assertion we need to do this more. By the way they live, vote and discuss politics it is obvious Yorubas are already inward looking and focused on their leadership after candidates emerge through Party primaries and processes. Yet this concept applies to ordinary Yorubas and not leaders who , once elected, play by very different rules favouring themselves and their benefactors.

Choosing good leaders is not as simple as you make it sound because the electorate can only vote candidates Parties produce. I would suggest folks like you join partisan politics and try and influence things at levels that really matter, such as the emergence of great candidates, rather than deliver nice soundbites that sound good but do little to address our main issues. You insinuate Yorubas should disregard partisan politics. Perhaps you would like to tell me how the transformational candidates we need, i.e those who will deliver the governance we crave, will emerge then.

Through Sowore's crazy methods? Or by turning our back on the political process to then leave it to charlatans and looters?
I never said we should abandon national politics, my warning was to those that go about forming human right fighting for Nigerians that doesn't send them, they could instead use this energy to focus on slolely Yorubaland.
And then again, if trully we look inward we will surely always be able to choose a good leader. Political party shouldn't stop us electing a good leader. Mimiko was elected as a Labour Party flagbearer over the popular PDP and ACN in Ondo state. If we look more inward, rigging elections on our lands will be difficult cuz rigging something of very wide margin will almost be impossible.

Good leaders abound everywhere.

Indeed....and doing this 24/7 at the expense of trying to besmirch the reputation of the Yorubas, who are actually far superior to them in every field of life for those who work with real facts and stats, just shows that mental illness is a general malaise for some.

it's funny that you'd now use Yoruba in a context with southerner, it's no more ss/se? Yorubas aren't backstabbers anymore?

Well anyway, keep chasing your agenda and let Yorubas do what they feel is better for them too. This isn't too much to ask of course, right?

who invited you though.

Ibos don't believe in unitary, zik blatantly rejected secession clause, Ironsi destroy the wonderful regionalism that was going on. Even till today, you are still the only tribe that want to run for political position in another region entirely different from yours.

Keep deceiving yourself.
Your text here does not reconcile with your opinion in your main post. You look confused. Igbo people v never been confused or deviated from their position since the civil war.What they demanded at Aburi is what they r still doing today and you know it. Intact,the Yoruba people use Igbo's positions on things in Nigeria to play politics buying favor with other tribes. You will hear the Yoruba man telling the Huasa or other tribes that imagine how the Igbo hates the country and wants to destroy the country. They say all this in order to gain favor.That is why the Yoruba people can not be trusted of restructuring and when they go into govt,they abandon it.e.g.VP,Tinubu and other yorubas.So whether restructuring or secession, the Yoruba people r just deceiving themselves.

in all. What you are saying is that ibos have the right to be self determined ile having their own agenda but Yorubas can't have their own agenda. Why?

You want Aburi, keep chasing, Yorubas want something else, they chased or let me say they keep chasing. So how's that supposed to be a problem?

Must we have the same agenda?
Re: Open Letter To My Yoruba Brothers by DMerciful(m): 1:28am On Dec 29, 2019
We Southerners need to look beyond supremacy contest, when we achieve Biafra and Oduduwa Republics, we can compete countrywise like France and Britain but for now the focus is restructuring this contraption or balkanizing it. We are stuck together in a marriage we had no input in 1914 so the best is to work together to achieve the divorce.
