That's a true statement. Nothing to think about, good to know you people have small sense. Your worst men know they're out of their league when it comes to Yoruba girls.

Yeah that is because Yourubas hardly take risk, they hardly exploit and they are Industrious in nature. If they have these mentioned attributes there is nothing that will make larger percentage of Yorubas to remain in South West. Come to my town and see the number of Hausas living and doing business there.
if Yorubas hardly exploit then how come they are indeginous to Benin Replublic, Togo, Ivory Coast etc. If Yorubas hardly exploit then what are they doing in the UK, USA, New Zealand, South Africa, UAE etc.

Igbo people keep falling hand with weak arguments and tactlessness thats why your region is eroding rapidly as we speak.

A man the fought for three years can never be a coward.


But a man who drank rat poison is a confirmed coward.
Of course you're one of the 99% dumb igbo women prostitute kanu was talking about, IBB never and will never ever in his life make a stupid statement like that. He's not stupid like you people. He knows the Yoruba race is too powerful for him to utter that stupid remark.

Not after the Yorubas drove the Fulanis back north when they vowed never to stop Jihad until they dip their quran in the atlantic ocean.

Not after the Yorubas frustrated him out of his Head of state / Presidential seat, only to make a Yoruba man his replacement. See IBB may not be the sharpest tool in the shed but he is damn sure not a stupid igbo man.

The question should be directed to your people and your northern brothers.

Igbos didn't declare war,rather yorubas and hausafulanis brought war to them.


Even now Igbos never said they will fight you,rather they say they want to be on their own.
You people are the one threaten them with war now.
The reason the YORUBAs joined the war was because the east tried to take parts of the SW, especially Lagos. You know we can't let that happen.

Igbos should better start investing in their regions and stop making noise up and down. You great grandfathers and grandfathers always built their first house in the east, e get why. The day nigeria eventually gets dissolved, you go know say people dey wey get ekiti, Lagos, Ogun, oyo, osun, Ondo.

Go read your history again, you're the only tribe that has always been expelled from the west and north. Time has shown that history always repeat itself, OPC would be a joke compared to what's coming for illegal aliens in SW. People are beginning to wake up.

Like I said, I'll rather drink poison than sacrifice 3 million of my brothers, have u no shame? Defending someone that killed 3 million of ur people then fled with his own family, he came back after some years to campaign for same fulani people that killed his people, ojukwu isn't just a coward, he's also shameless

how are the Fulanis and Hausas people stopping you from actualizing Biafra?

the Hausa/fulani are not the United Nations that grant autonomy to new Nations.

The Yorubas have no Problem with you lots, we don't care about Biafra, are we are not in anyway an obstacle to your struggles. Are we? how?
Leave these delusional people alone shouting leave us alone. who's holding them if they want to leave.?? They should talk to their governors, senators, and politicians if they know they're serious. YORUBAs don't care or give a fuxk about Biafra.

Europeans interrupted the mission. Besides the fact that other Yoruba subgroups didn't care about Kwara then, they were busy fighting to free themselves from the strangle hold of Oyo which weakened the great kingdom. But if the Europeans never came, and once the Yorubas had gotten over Afonja's betrayal best believe we would've taken Kwara back.

Which South West be specific
Call Lagos let know where you are talking about
Apart from Lagos which other City in South West is viable.
Wait and watch the East in few years to come we will know the people who have made Lagos what it is today.

Mind you people did not fled East, the least community in the East is more developed than many State Capital of South Western States apart from Ikeja Lagos.
NBS and World Bank Data say hi grin

Onyeka Onwenu, an ace singer and actress, says she would ditch the south-west for her homeland if Nigeria breaks up.

Onwenu spoke on Tuesday during a virtual pre-book launch briefing ahead of the release of ‘My Father’s Daughter’, her memoir, billed for October 1.

The 68-year-old movie star, who is married to a Yoruba Muslim, said her decision would be due to her commitment to contribute to the development of the south-east, which she said, had been marginalised for long.

The human right activist cum politician recalled once joking with her sister-in-law, who is also a Muslim, that she would leave her children for “Biafra” if the country splits.

“If that happens (referring to Nigeria breaking up), I will go back to the south east because I want to go back home. And even if we don’t split, I want to do so much in the south east,” she said.

“So, I am not afraid…nothing spoil, nothing lost, we’re still going to love each other.”

Onwenu went on to enjoin those from the south-east to try and invest in the region, adding that such collective will is crucial to development within that part of the country.

“We have neglected the south-east and I am telling every Igbo person that whatever they are doing outside the region, they should go home and invest,” she added.

“It doesn’t take away whatever you are doing in Lagos or Abuja or wherever else…you are free to live where you like and trade but remember back home. We have been marginalised for a very long time, we are in need of development.

“We are going to develop other people’s places because that is what we do. But we must not forget that our investments are needed at home.”

Using her marriage as a reference, the music star also enjoined every Nigerian to uphold the country’s unity.

“We should stop insulting and denigrating each other. We are blessed with the richness of our culture,” she added.

She revealed that her forthcoming book, which contains over 450 pages, will examines aspects of her life which are hitherto unknown to the public.

If not divided Yoruba who do not know what they really want but serving as bridge between the north and east of Nigeria, what could make Fulani overshadow the Igbo in Nigeria?

She’s been yorubanized by the better culture and better people. At least in the SW, all her husband’s properties will be hers unlike if she was in the SE.

Most celebs keep their KNOWN name because it's their BRAND but if you check their travelling passport, they have their married name or real name on it.

When the country divides, u all will pay through your nose to offset Lagos loan and new loan been taken for lekki port.


Yorubas know why Nigeria is their last hope.

Already 4 states is already down. financially wrecked.
AGAIN......Yorubas DONT NEED to go to BIAFRA For our SURVIVAL but the reversehuh? In fact, I don't think Igbos can EVER survive WITHOUT the North or SW. UP TILL last night , Ekenedili buses STILL dropped off thousands of Ibos in SW. And I just noticed that it is the same "immigration pattern" in the most REMOTE Southwest Villages as well . You will find these dudes in Shaki, Ijebu, Ede, Shagamu .....KILODEhuhhuh? Then INTERNATIONALLY, you will find them in the WORST COUNTRIES in the World i.e LESOTHO,Nepal, Vietnam, Burundi.....I won't be surprised if they are in IRAQ or SOMALIA .What are they RUNNING FROMhuh? Oh I forgot....They were DEVELOPING these places.

Is this not Enugu?

Even Places like Madrid, LA, And other Western cities have slums.

Ibadan has slums just like every other cities in the world, are you saying Enugu, Owerri e.t.c doesn't..


The fact is that you can't compare the Developed part of Ibadan with Enugu, Owerri, Onitsha e.t.c

The Developed part of Ibadan is nicer than what you have down East, #Fact.
How long shall we deceive ourself with picture. If I tell you this is Ibadan somebody will want to post another fake picture from East and call Ibadan a slum and red roof republic.

those pictures were scenes from Phyno music video, directed by Clarence peters (I think connect music video)

the fact that you think Enugu does not have brown roofs shows that your delusional how can a city not have the old town? Abuja, Lagos all have old part where you'll see old houses with rusty roof, how can Enugu not have old town for goodness sake?

do you want me to open Google satellite for you right now?

some of you are just sick in the head.

the size of Enugu city is 556km^2, how can a place of this size not have old towns? are you for real?

Wishful thinking, if only donkeys, were horses, When is Nigeria going to disintegrate? Never, Before that happens, it will be a very good excuse for the Military to take over power, to defend the sovereignty of Nigeria, as it is mandated in the Constitution of 1999 (As Amended), so any Monday morning quarter back dreaming of a dissolution of Nigeria is wasting their medulla power.

We love Onyeka and she loves us too.
Please do not insult our wife for us!

She saw her kinsmen on ground before she married us.

You must not insult Onyeka because she is our wife and she born pikin for us if you insult our Wife and Mama we will fight you.

We and Onyeka will settle the matter jejely.

It is the tribal warlords of hatred that are creating problems even among themselves problems that God has already settled.

Even President Ibrahim Babangida was married to an Igbo Woman Mariam and he even made Asaba the Capital of Delta State instead of Warri as part of his Bride price payment to the joy of his in-laws.

What God has joined together let no man put asunder.
