For the sophisticated suffersticated ones I imagine it will be horrifying to contemplate Obi winning the 2027 election.

Wrong.

Many intelligent Yoruba are Obidient. Only the Ronus and Sharia Yoruba are suffersticted.

flokii:
What stops your State Governors from building seaports if your States have commercial value?.. don't we see States building airports in same Nigeria?.

Lagos is naturally ahead because of her positioning close to interntional water bodies, you can't ask Govt. to be building seaports in landlocked regions who have no direct access to sea.
Calabar port is there, Onne port is there.. why are the naysayers not using them and abandon Lagos seaports?.. hateful beings that bad belle will destroy.

So Lagos ports were built by Lagos state government?
Why are duties higher in eastern ports like Calabar, Onne and Warri if not to discourage people from SE and SS from using them? One country indeed. One day, these people will see through your Yoruba and their Fulani masters treachery.

Bribe for 2027. E no go work o. Unless Obi no dey ballot.

mightyhaze:
Before igbos cry,your people don bleed out from their eyes ..


Check recent History... Some leaders were brought in to pepper igbos ..but before igbos even felt anything, the people were already bleeding from all pores

Suicide everywhere in the SW o. They're still teaching Igbo lesson.

Slytiger:
- Fajuyi
- Banjo
Both died defending Igbos.
Its more like alot of Yorubas have learnt their lessons.

Stop the lies. There's no single proof that a Yoruba man has ever died for himself, talk less die for an Igbo. The Fajuyi dying for Ironsi lie has been busted long ago as another Lagos-Ibadan expressway media lie.

Yoruba Muslims make bad presidents. In fact, Obasanjo did well because he gave the most sensitive positions to Igbos.

Had he dared the military and announced Abiola winner.

The last time some naive Igbo tried making a Yoruba man prime minister, it turned into a calamity for the Igbo. The very Yoruba these Igbo officers tried to elevate joined hands with the British to push the Igbo coup narrative. Convenient delisting members of their own tribe who participated in the coup.

Have you noticed that it's mainly Yoruba fighting against honoring Prof Nwosu? This is despite the fact that he staked everything in a bid to make sure Abiola became president? Thank God he wasn't too foolish like the naive Igbo officers to announce the election results.

Like the 1966 guys, the Yoruba would have still betrayed him. Are you even aware that Abiola was already warming up with the classic Yoruba betrayal? Even before the election results came in, he said he could do without the Igbo? That's why people like Arthur Nzeribe dealt with him.

As we warm up for 2027, let's bear in mind that as southerner, a Tinubu presidency will never favor any southerner outside his tribe. It's a dilemma of sorts...

JAMO84:
The igbos can only get to aso rock as second fiddle, unless they cooperate with Yoruba.

Their alliance with the north is always a one way traffic. It only benefits the northerners. When it's time to support igbos, they will remember the 1966 igbo coup that killed Sardauna and Tafa Balewa.

My igbo people, your only way to inclusiveness is to drop the unnecessary hatred for Yoruba, it will only lead to regret.


However, with or without your support, we can always get whatever we want in this country.

God forbid. The last time some naive Igbo tried making a Yoruba man prime minister, it turned into a calamity for the Igbo. The very Yoruba joined hands with the British to push the Igbo coup narrative. Have you noticed that it's mainly Yoruba fighting against honoring Prof Nwosu? This is despite the fact that he staked everything to make sure Abiola became president? Thank God he wasn't too foolish like the naive Igbo officers to announce the election results.

Cindypresh:
There's nothing like the turn of the south when tinubu connived with Buhari to snatch and give it to northerners??

Turn of the south tupia your mouth there

ATIKU/OBI 2027

Not tenable unless it's Obi/Atiku. Otherwise let Tpain continue peppering Nigerians. As far as I'm concerned, Atiku lost his chance when he betrayed Jonathan for Buhari APC. Tinubu is currently serving what would have been Atikus second term. Let him take back seat and mobilize for Obi or let Tpain continue

buckeyemedia:
Not a Political Zombie like yaself.

I agree with him. You're a known zombie around here.

Ttalk:
Which kind obsession be this. Sebi Tinubu is not their president, why are they doing familiarity and gumbody with the zoo president, Obi their authentic president will honour coward Humphrey Nwosu at the appropriate time

Even if he snatched and ran with the mandate, which he obviously is clueless what to do with, simple assignments like giving honor shouldn't be too difficult na

LegendHero:
RIP to him. I agree to this.

IBB destroyed what would have been Prof. Nwosu greatest legacy.

You could be reasonable atimes, making me doubt you're really an APC zombie. Are you sure you're a Yoruba Muslim?

Africa is incredibly rich in natural resources—diamonds, gold, oil, and more—but the benefits often don’t reach the majority of its people. This is due to a mix of historical exploitation, systemic corruption, and global power dynamics.

Colonial powers historically extracted resources without investing in local communities, leaving behind systems that prioritized external profit over local development. Post-independence, many African nations faced challenges like weak governance and corruption, where wealth from resources often ended up in the hands of a few elites. Additionally, multinational corporations and foreign governments continue to play a significant role in resource extraction, often negotiating deals that favor their interests over those of local populations.

For me, I think resource control by natives may be the solution. A first step solution. Secondly, I think most Africans whose land bear immense resources should clamor for independence from colonial contraptions. Them they all must halt exploitation of their resources until they build the capacity to do so themselves - exploration, extraction and processing should be indigenously done. European contraptions like Nigeria, Angola, Congo, South Africa, etc are profligates meant to serve the white man, not Africans.

Putinofrussia:
Nigeria is not damaged.
Nigeria is healing and will grow,develop and be the best economy in the global South before the end of the first tenure of Tinubu.

A Yoruba man actually told me that "

a typical Yoruba man has expertise in denying reality

"

I never heard truer words from a person from that tribe.

dominique:
Emotional blackmail tactics, why can't people see through this bs? She's even calling on strangers to come and take care of her so-called 6 months old baby, does she not have relatives? I'm 100% sure there's no suicide plan or any 6 months old baby anywhere. She (that's if she's even a she) just wants to guilt-trip people into sending money to her. People should stop falling for these shams biko. Anybody that wants to go should do and be going abeg. Laslas, we're all going to die one day

I had a friend whose friend asked his friend 'jokingly' what he would do if he committed suicide. The friend told him he should greet Tupac for him if he did unbeknownst to him that the guy was serious about the suicide thing. He actually did kill himself.

In these things, I think it's better to err on the side of caution. Someone is already angry on X that it was an Igbo man who bailed out the Yoruba lady. I think that's wrong. Our humanity comes first. Anything anyone could do to save one soul is sure worth it. Everyone knows that the wicked politicians of Africa are mostly working for the devil and it won't get better anytime soon.

That's why I hope that somehow, a person like Peter Obi would make it to power. A man who really cares.

Peter Obi obviously clearly won the 2023 presidential election. The reason why he gives Bola Tinubu's henchmen sleepless nights.

I agree. Yoruba men with Igbo wives make good leaders.

helinues:
Gosh.

Why do we have so many educated illiterates in Nigeria like this?

Even companies have their own capital punishment, must it be death?

Capital punishment from NYSC. Is there any punishment in NYSC that said capital punishment must be by death?

Those are the people we have been wasting our time to engage with. Just imagine

Nairaland dickhead

Every country have their terrible. Have you heard of Ivan the Terrible? Not a bad idea that Nigeria has Tinubu The Terrible. By the way, how is the coalition doing? Heard Nigerians are waiting to vote out the terrible

According to Ronus, this is the only Igbo from SS part of Nigeria.

Are Ronus not clever?

Ikaeniyan0:
Opobo is not part of Igbo land

Opobo is Yoruba. You know there are no Igbo in SS except Nzeogwu/

Brenbentondiaz:
You will always fall for it. It is expected. You're the flimsiest of souls. If Buhari comes tomorrow to press your mumu button (which is the easiest of mumu buttons to press), you will run after him. He only needs to say dogsh*t like "only igbos can save nigeria", and you guys will be beaming like deranged mooks. Only for you to find out you've been used, then you start your world-renowned wailing again. "Smartest tribe in Africa" for a reason.

Is Buhari not better than TinubuisTerrible?

AdesegunSanni89:
By “southerners” the OP meant SW and SS. SE is inconsequential in the matters of Nigeria.

Jonathan's people abi?

Salewa97:
Wike is always right.

I love that man. He is a true Nigerian.

You corn people love people who grab, snatch and run away with people's mandate, we know.

Ikaeniyan0:
You Igbos love causing wahala sha

Is Wike who is causing the wahala in Rivers Igbo?

Mr Yakubu chose to write his own name in the mud.

Wike said Funara is not an Ijaw man.

Copilot:

Nyesom Wike, the former Governor of Rivers State and current Minister of the Federal Capital Territory, has claimed that Siminalayi Fubara, the current Governor of Rivers State, is not an Ijaw man. Wike stated that the Opobo clan, where Fubara hails from, is not considered part of the "real" Ijaw.

Wike himself is from the Ikwerre ethnic group, which is distinct from the Ijaw. The Ijaw are one of the largest ethnic groups in the Niger Delta region, while the Ikwerre are primarily found in Rivers State and are often considered part of the Igbo subgroup, though this is sometimes debated.

There's a historical argument suggesting that the Opobo people, including the founding of Opobo town by King Jaja (Jubo Jubogha), have ties to the Igbo ethnic group. King Jaja himself was of Igbo origin from the Aro Confederacy before establishing Opobo in the Niger Delta.

Over time, however, the Opobo people have developed a distinct identity, shaped by their coastal location and cultural interactions with other Niger Delta groups, including the Ijaw. This blending of identities makes the question of ethnic classification for Opobo more nuanced, as it sits at the crossroads of historical and sociopolitical contexts.

duro4chang:
Abaribe should be sent to prison for supporting a leader of a terrorist group

Are you aware you could become a victim of the bullet of thousands of BH members integrated into the army? Of course that's not your concern since people from your place love their stomach more than their lives. Kanu stood against possible ethnic cleansing of natives and was declared a terrorist, while your government actively and aggressively support the real terrorists by pardoning and rewarding them. I know you'd rather die than see Igbo exit Nigeria, not because you love Nigeria but because you're from one of the parasitic regions living fat on resources of others.

Good you're aware he's the angel that could rescue Nigeria from the demons holding her hostage. You're making progress.

It's not yet weeping time. That's 6 million votes despite APC rigging and voter suppression. 6 million votes without Rivers, Akwa Ibom and Edo North due to Wike, Akpabio and Oshiomole.

Weep Not Yet Child

zero8zero:
Face your region for once, open thread about Bokoharam, banditry, Fulani herdsmen that have ravaged the North and killing people in the south. Expose them, your traditional leaders and Indigenes collaborating with bandits, create a thread on how Al-majiris can be taken off the streets, how the North can catch up with the south. Help yourselves for once. Don't only devote your life worshipping Atiku and scavenging Twitter for gossips or poke nosing into southern affairs. You opened numerous threads attacking igbos during Buhari's Administration, stop being double faced.

And this goes to your fellow Atikuloosers as well ;

Seun of Nairaland, don't you have a rule against spamming in your forum? This idiot posts this same lines in all his comments and it's just as if this is not a moderated forum. Imagine this nonsense on Quora or even X.
