Olatomiwami:



So this BQman no b Yoruba, Arakunrin not Alakunrin.

is Igbo or related.
But I'm very sure he's South East/South South but resides in Lagos

He mistakenly exposed himself years ago, but people like us no dey forget things

fergie001:

That you sue a Gov doesn't mean he must come to Court.

As I speak to you, Muhammadu Buhari is been sued over the Twitter Ban...he is a Party to the suit.

You can't compel him to come, but yes, you can sue him.

This issue has been decided very comprehensively by the Courts at different times.

Forget Buhari

That guy has been sued many times by Huaric (or what's their name self) and serap
I've lost count self

fergie001:

You don't understand.....the tribunal, Appeal Court and Supreme Court all agreed that it is a violation of the Constitution for Buni to sign as National Chairman.

The only way Aketi won was that Jegede didn't make Buni a Party to the suit.

Buni had already signed Uba's form as the Party's candidate and the form dey INEC hand.

Though, he has a window.... Substitution of candidates ends on Friday, July 30...the only way been that they sack Buni and substitute Uba as their candidate.

Gbam! I understand clearly now

Son of a Anthony general wey no graduate with First class

fergie001:

Everyone knew Buni's Chairmanship was in gross violation of the Constitution. Sadly, he knows that himself.

For any other APC Gov, I would be sad with this judgement...for Aketi, I am cool with it.

Let it go to the next victim

are you by any chance saying ..... Ubah
Meaning if they fail to compose themselves b4 Anambra election, they're gone.

Mynd44 FP plsssss.

fergie001:

4-3 was predictable? That was damn close....All the same, it is OK by me.

Na waoh... They escaped and have opened a hole for any member of the Party to go to Court.

You don't know how happy I am

Here is mine

SenecaTheYonger:
.

Which game is this bro?

senatordave1:


This is very dangerous for apc.they need to elect a new chairman very fast before any election or at least force buni to resign and the secretary john udoedehe takes over for now

Yes, else...hmmm

Congratulations to Aketi
I was really afraid that My Governor will be out of Alagbaka House

Tolani1122:
What party is the white head man from?

APC

senatordave1:


Very very.it was a pre election matter,was supposed to be filed by an apc aspirant.cc seer.ade.fergie001, come and give us the full judgment

The Supreme Court in 4 to 3 Judgment has dismissed the appeal filed by the PDP and its candidate Eyitayo Jegede against the election of Rotimi Akeredolu as governor of Ondo state
In a Majority Judgment the Apex court held that it is not in dispute that governor Buni is the acting chairman of the party in breach of section 183 of the constitution.
The appeal was based on the ground that Mai Mala Buni was holding position as the acting chairman of APC while a governor.
Governor Buni was not made a party as he was the center of the issue.
The governor who was alleged to have breached the constitution ought to have been made a party in the petition to answer to the allegations.
The court affirms the decision of the lower court that the petition was incompetent.
In a dissenting judgment Justice Mary Odili held that the APC submitted the name of Rotimi Akeredolu to INEC through its nomination form signed governor Buni who is a sitting governor.
She held that as a governor the constitution barred Buni from acting in dual capacities as a governor and party executive.
Aligning himself with the dissenting Judgment Justice Ejembi Ekwo held the position of the majority judgment that governor Buni was not added as a part is not attainable because when you have the principle you need not add the agent.
Justice Ibrahim Saulawa also adopted the minority Judgment.

DuwaRepublic:


It’s not wrong, Ondo state was part of the Benin empire

Which Ondo state?

If you say part of Ondo state, I'll agree or few towns in Ondo state, I'll agree

How come my town wasn't part of Benin kingdom

Throwback:
Well it is OK to borrow a name from a neighbouring tribe.

Gold Coast borrowed the Ghana name from the defunct Ghana empire in West Africa that was not anywhere near the territorial geography of modern Ghana.

Dahomey borrowed the Benin name from the defunct Benin empire in West Africa that is currently within Nigeria. So Dahomey became Benin Republic.

So I see nothing wrong that an Ijaw will provide the Igbos the name to call their Igboland, from the now defunct coastal description called Bight of Biafra.

The map of that Benin empire is wrong.

I can see it covered Ondo state

senatordave1:
m

Yes.update us on the proceedings

I'm not in Ondo currently and I dey somehow busy
I no wan come back online and heard he's been removed

senatordave1:


90 over 100.this case will likely decide apc fate in subsequent elections under buni

You mean 90/100 he will win

What are Aketi chances

jrjfjfj:
We the Real, Full blooded and patriotic Yorubas do not have anything to do with Either IGBO or FULANI.Because both of them destroyed Yorubaland with the backing of the corrupt English goverment at Westminster Abbey ,by suspending regional government which took away the power to control our land and resources,which i consider the greatest crime on earth .Both of them team up to destroy Yorubaland because they are both landlocked and have no single drop of oil in their region ,that is why they are both intolerant, normadic and dominative .I would implore Yorubas to stay away from this two ethnic groups ,because they are the genesis of Both Yoruba and Nigeria's problem.For Yorubas to be free ,We must deal with the English ,Fulani and igbos ,through the help of United states .We as Yoruba people ,we need stronger allies to defeat fulani, because fulani has allies who are the british ,We should not relying on charms ,,tortise shell ,dane gun and all sort .Yoruba needs chemical and biological weapons coupled with stronger international allies .We would have to lobby America in to support our interest by diplomacy and negotiations .Lastly Yorubas must know that Jesus or mohammed doesnt win wars ,but War s are won by people with superior tactics ,strength,firepowers and most importantly stronger allies.
GOD BLESS YORUBA KINGDOM

Awo On The Development of the Soul-Personality
"Throughout my adult life, I have learnt about the development of the soul personality, I know the law and the prophets, that is to say, that love is the cornerstone of the universe both visible and invisible."

My March Through Prison, 1988
Awo On Moral and Spiritual Reconstruction "There is an urgent and massive need for moral and spiritual reconstruction: the kind which will help to demolish morbid desire for naked power and domination ... and ensure justice equity and fair play for all."
- Lecture delivered to the Christian Laity of Nigeria. Lagos (1972): Voice of Wisdom (1981)

Awo On Human Desire For Power
"Let us make no pretense about it, every human being loves power; power over his fellow men in the state, or in business enterprises; or failing that; power over his wife and children, and over his brothers, sisters, and friends, or, in the case of children, power over his playmates. Of these categories of power, the desire for power over one's fellow men is the strongest."
- Address to Students' Parliament (1975): In Voice of Wisdom (1981)

Awo on Equality of The Blackman with Other Races
"The Blackman shall be absolute and undisputed master in his own home, and shall enjoy unaffected and un-patronising equality with the other races of the world."
- Press Statement (196/): Voice of Reason, 1981.

Awo on Power and How It Enslaves
"Power enslaves: absolute power enslaves absolutely. I have made a diligent search through history, and I have not come across a single instance where a regime, be it military or civilian, which has come to power at its own will, and has wielded that power for many years, has found it easy to extricate itself from the sweet uses and shackles of power, and then hand it to others outside its own hierarchy. It is possible, quite possible, that my search is not exhaustive and so, I stand to be corrected."
- University of Ife Convocation (1974): In Voice of Courage. 1981.

Awo on Africa's Dependence on Former Colonial Masters
"Today, Africa is a continent of COMPETING BEGGAR-NATIONs. We vie with one another for favours from our former colonial masters; and we deliberately fall over one another to invite neo- colonialists to come over to our different territories to preside over our economic fortunes ... Unless a beggar resolutely shakes off, and irrevocably turns his back on, his begging habit, he will forever remain a beggar. For, the more he begs, the more he develops the beggar characteristics of lack of initiative, courage, drive and self-reliance."
-Address to 4th OAU Summit in Kinshasa (1967): In Voice of Courage, 1981.

Awo on Self-Seeking African Leaders
"Africa has produced more self-seeking leaders than public-spirited ones. But, thank goodness, the masses of the people remain largely unspoilt and uncorrupted, and are developing fast the technique of differentiating gold from lead and real metal from dross. What is more, they have begun to show their preparedness for very rough action against any political leader who may be caught in the game of public trickery and fraud."
- The People's Republic, 1968

Awo On People's Revolt Against Bad Leadership
"A greedy, corrupt, and evil administration is bound to wither, sooner or later, in the face of obsessive desire and mounting clamour on the part of the masses of the people for a welfare regime which will benefit all equally. In the course of time there will be a clash of desires and wills between the exploiters and the exploited. These clash of desires and wills will stir the universal mind into action, and a situation will then arise which will bring about the termination of or radical change in the greedy, and evil regime."
- The People's Republic, 1968

Awo on the Wisdom of Managing Rivalries
"It is safer and wiser to cure unhealthy rivalry than to suppress it."
- Thoughts on The Nigerian Constitution, 1966.

Awo on the Danger of Not Practising What We Preach
"If we are in the habit of practising the opposite of what we preach, our admonition will not only lose their force and cogency, but also we ourselves will forfeit every claim to credibility. An ounce of example, it has been widely said, is far better than a ton of precepts."
-Address to the Congregation of the University of Ife (1970): In Voice of Wisdom, 1981.

Awo on Thoroughness in Doing Things[/b]
"A half-hearted slipshod doer may be likened to a fool who takes five steps forward and three steps backwards ... Again, a half-hearted doer may be likened to a man who sweeps a dirty room with a dirtier broom, and throws back into the room a good quality of the dirt which he has managed to remove from the room."
- Voice of Wisdom (1981)

[b]Awo's Self-Assessment As A Leader
"While many men in power and public office are busy carousing in the midst of women of easy virtue and men of low morals, I, as a few others like me, am busy at my desk thinking about the problems of Nigeria and proffering solutions to them. Only the deep can call to the deep."

Awo On The Risk That The Few Rich Are Running
"We have in our midst about 1,000 rich Nigerians who in the past cleverly rigged the sources of the wealth of our nation, and we are now tactically poised to oligopolise all the munificent avenues of riches that may supervene now and in the future. The rich, and the highly-placed in business, public life, and government, are running a dreadful risk in their callous neglect of the poor and down-trodden."
- Address delivered to Ondo House of Assembly (/980): Voice of Wisdom, 1981.

Awo on Secularity of Nigeria
"Nigeria should be a secular State ... As far as possible, there should be separation of activities between the States on the one hand, and religious bodies on the other."
- Thoughts on the Nigerian Constitution, 1966

Awo On A Motion For Self-Government
"Every time we talk about self-government, the British turn around and say if we depart from your country, there will be civil strife, there will be war ... But even under their rule, how many of our sons who were taken to Burma, were decimated in a war, the beginning of which we do not know, the cause of which we do not know, and in the declaring of which we took no "art or part". I challenge any Briton today to tell me whether the number of our people destroyed in their wars, are as many as those who had died in our so-called inter-tribal wars". .
- Speech given in The House of Representatives (1953):Voice of Reason, 1981

Awo on the Nigerian Federation
"Nigeria is not a nation. It is a mere geographical expression. The word Nigerian is merely a distinctive appellation to distinguish those who live within the boundaries of Nigeria from those who do not".
- Path To Nigerian Freedom, 1947

Awo On Nigeria As Created By The British
"It is incontestable that the British not only made Nigeria, but also hand it to us whole on their surrender of power. But the Nigeria, which they handed over to us, had in it the forces of its own disintegration. It is up to contemporary Nigerian leaders to neutralize these forces, preserve the Nigerian inheritance, and make all our people free, forward-looking and prosperous. "
- The Peoples' Republic, 1968.

Awo On Future Conflicts
"The seed for a future minority problem in the North has been sown by the Government. It will grow with growing political consciousness on the part of those who settle permanently in the North."
- Path to Nigerian Freedom. 1947

Awo on an Ijaw Presidency of Nigeria
"I look forward to the day - not in the far distant future - when an Ijaw would be President of our
Republic, and a Birom his Vice or vice versa."
- Speech at the UPN's First Campaign (1978): In Voice of Wisdom (1981)

Awo's Move for National Government
"At the conclusion of the Constitutional Conference in London in 1958, I had an overpowering feeling of foreboding ... that something untoward was going to happen to Nigeria. That it would happen, I felt sure; but when it would happen, I had no inkling ... At first, I felt there was nothing I could do about it. But later on, I thought I might do something about it."
- The Travails of Democracy and The Rule of Law, 1987.

Awo on Federalism for Multi-National Country
"I predict that every multi-lingual or multi-national country with a unitary constitution must either eventually have a federal constitution based on the principles which J have enunciated, or disintegrate, or be perennially afflicted with disharmony and instability."
- The Peoples' Republic, 1968.

Awo on Human Diversity and Political Autonomy
"You can unite but can never succeed in unifying peoples whom language has set distinctly apart from one another; the more educated a linguistic. group becomes, the stronger it waxes in its bids for political self-determination and autonomy, unless it happens to be the dominant group."
- Thoughts on the Nigerian Constitution, 1966.

Awo On Creation of More States for Minorities
"The creation of the Mid- West State will be the beginning of a journey which may be short or long but which will irresistibly bring Nigeria to the goal of true federalism and more States, and of individual freedom and happiness for all our people."
- Awolowo and Nigerian Federalism, 1988.

Awo on Population As Basis Of Sharing Revenue
"In a country where the accuracy of the census figures is so much in acrimonious dispute, it is gross and aggravating provocation to urge that population should be used as a basis of sharing what belongs to others who are much fewer in number."
-The Strategy and Tactics of the People's Republic of Nigeria, 1970

Awo on State Police[/b]
"Under my proposals, Police is a residual subject, because the immediate problem of maintaining law and order can only be properly and more effectively tackled by the State Government."
- The Strategy and Tactics of the Peoples' Republic of Nigeria, 1970.

[b]Awo on Peoples' Fear of His Death Arising from National Crisis
"Fortified with the justness of the cause we espouse in this crisis, and trusting in the never- failing providence of God, 1 can say with confidence that there, where my blood is shed, no grass will grow again, and no life is likely to flourish again. Undoubtedly, lives might be lost if the ugly crisis continues for long. But God, who sees our hearts and knows why we have refused to bow to blind tyranny, and are, as a result, in this politically helpless plight, will protect me and my colleagues from any harm."
- The Travails of Democracy and the Rule of Law, 1987.

Awo On The Nigerian Civil War
"It appears to me that the causes of the last Civil War lie embedded in the nether realms of such degrading and depraving evils as unemployment; mass ignorance; endemic and debilitating diseases; low productivity; abuse and misuse of power, bribery and corruption; favouritism and nepotism; ethnocentricity and tribalism; much poverty and much discontent."
- Address to The Nigerian Trade Union Congress (1970): In Voice of Courage, 1981

50 Quotes from Obafemi Awolowo


Awo's Motto Formulated On His 30th Birthday
"After rain comes sunshine; After darkness comes the glorious dawn. There is no sorrow without its alloy of joy; there is no joy without its admixture of sorrow. Behind the ugly terrible mask of misfortune lies the beautiful soothing countenance of prosperity. So, tear the mask!"
- My Early Life, 1968.

Awo on His Wife of 50 Years
"Throughout all the changing fortunes of my life ... , my wife, Hannah Idowu Dideolu Awolowo (nee Adelana) has been to me a jewel of inestimable value. She is an ideal wife ... The outpouring of her love and devotion to me and to our family is exceeding and beyond words ... I do not hesitate to confess that I owe my success in life to three factors: the Grace of God, a Spartan self-discipline, and a good wife. Our home is to all of us, a true haven; a place of happiness, and of imperturbable seclusion from the buffetings of life."
- My Early Life, 1968

Awo on Risk Taking
"It is, I think, enough for me to say that life itself is, from the cradle to the grave, a series of unbroken risks. I make no boast about this, but those who know me intimately will testify to the fact that I have never, at any time, shrunk from taking my full share of the risks which life, with its unending opportunities and vicissitudes, offers."
- Voice of Reason, 1981

Awo On "The Courage To Look"
"The gloom of the world is but a shadow, and there is radiance in the darkness, if we could but
see. To be able to see this radiance, all you need to do is to cultivate the courage to look, and the insight to apprehend the light which shines, at all times and in all places, for those who make Truth the object of their daily pursuit."
Speech to University Graduands (1967): In Voice of Courage, 1981.

Awo On Failure As Springboard To Success
"I have come to learn, from personal experience, that failure and defeat always serve as springboards for greater achievements for I, whom who never acknowledges their potency, and who is prepared to meet the challenges posed by' them - for they always pose challenges.
Statement on Attaining the Age of 67; 1976

Awo On Light and Darkness
"In the presence of light, darkness cannot exist; nor can the night of misery and suffering... The
compelling urge to be a harbinger of light over Nigeria has been my one consuming passion for
more than four decades now ... My yearnings for the descent of light upon Nigeria became so deep that they were soon transformed into an irrepressible call to duty."
- Text of a Broadcast on the Nigerian Television, Ibadan, 1979

Awo On Self-Discipline
"I will, more than ever before, subject myself to severe self- discipline. Only men who are masters of themselves become easily masters of others. Therefore, my thoughts, my tongue,
and my actions shall be brought under strict control always."
- My March Through Prison, 1985


Awo's View of The World
"I must take the world as I find it: with its sprinkling of saints and its multitude of evil-doers, ... ; with its source of happiness and its tons of sorrow. My duty, therefore, is to view anything that may happen to me in this world with Christ- like calm and equanimity and to do all in my power to promote the progress and advancement of mankind".
- My March Through Prison, 1985


Awo On His Lifestyle As Example To The Youths[/b]
"Those who desire to reach, and keep their places at the top in any calling must be prepared to do so the hard way."
- Awo (Autobiography). 1960

Awo On The Temporary Nature Of Human Problems
"In the long run, all human problems do settle themselves aright, whatever anyone or group of people may do. This is so, because all those who do wrong and injustice, are merely setting themselves against the powerful tide of Nature's or, if you like, History's dialectical progression. Temporarily, this tide can be held back; but certainly, not permanently. "
- Address to 4th OAU Summit in Kinshasa, Sept, (/967): In Voice of Courage (1981)


[b]Awo On Leadership By Example
"Those of us placed in a position of leadership must be prepared to grasp the nettle if we unite in doing so, and if, in addition, we set a worthy example and a marat on pace in probity, unselfishness, and self-sacrifice, the people will follow, all too readily, in our footsteps. "
- Call to Rededication and Reconstruction (1961): In Voice of Reason (1981)

Awo On The Law Of Sowing and Reaping

- Lecture at the University of Lagos (1968): In Voice of Courage (1981)

Awo On Good and Evil
"The touchstone of what is good, be it thought, or word or action, is LOVE. We are to love our neighbours as ourselves. That is the law and the prophets. Anything therefore - any thought or word or action - which falls short of LOVE is evil, and holds within itself the germ of its own eventual and inevitable destruction."
- Lecture at the University of Lagos (1968): In Voice of Courage (1981)

Awo On Man and His Environment
"Man is not born to grope in the face of adverse environmental circumstances and conditions: he is ordained, and endowed with the capacity, to comprehend the universe, conquer his immediate surroundings, and rule the world. But first, he must understand the world and all its phenomena: he must do so systematically and scientifically."
- The People's Republic, 1968

Awo On Man As The Sole Dynamic In Nature
"Man is the sole dynamic in nature; and accordingly, every individual constitutes the supreme economic potential which a country possesses. It is axiomatic that man can create nothing. But, by an intelligent and purposive application of the exertions of his body and mind, he can exploit natural resources to produce goods and service..... Therefore, other things being equal, the healthier his body and the more educated his mind, the greater will be his morale and the more efficient he becomes as a producer and consumer."
- University of Ife Convocation Speech (/974): In Voice of Courage (1981)

Awo On Development of Human Personality
"A man whose personality is fully developed never fears anything; he cringes not, and never feels inferior to anyone; His breadth of mind enables him to exercise his freedom in such a manner as not to endanger the interests and freedom of others. He is a citizen of the world - free from narrow prejudices. He is what he is because the three main constituents of his entity - his body, brain, and mind - are fully developed. Mens Sana in Corpore Sano!"
- Voice of Reason (1981)

Awo On The Cultivation of The Human Mind
"Whether we are conscious of or acknowledge it or not, the fact remains stubborn and indestructible that poverty, disease, social unrest, and instability, and all kinds of international conflicts, have their origins in the minds of men ... It is only when the minds of men have been properly and rigorously cultivated and garnished, that they can be safely entrusted with public affairs with a certainty and assuredness that they will make the best of their unique opportunity and assignment."
- Inaugural Address as Chancellor of the University of Ife (1967) Voice of Wisdom, 1981

Awo On The Cardinal Aim of Education
"Any system of education which does not help a man to have a healthy and sound body and alert brain, and balanced and disciplined instinctive urges, is both misconceived and dangerous."
- The People's Republic. 1968

Awo on Free Education and Free Health Services
"In order to attain to the goals of economic freedom and prosperity, Nigeria must do certain things as a matter of urgency and priority. It must provide free education (at all levels) and free health facilities for the masses of its citizens."

Awo on the Welfare of the Individual
"Man is the Alpha and Omega, the only dynamic means and the sole end, of all earthly human activities .... All productive activities, if they are to be meaningful, equitable,just and human, should be geared to one and only one goal- the welfare of the individual."
- The People's Republic, 1970.

Awo On Citizens General Well-Being
"He needs a healthy body which can be reared only on good food, adequate shelter, decent clothing, a reasonable measure of comfort and luxury, and a wholesome environment. He needs a sound and cultivated mind which is free to know and meditate upon the things of his choice. He has natural, conventional and legal rights which must be protected and upheld, with impartiality and inflexible justice by government and the society in which he lives."
- Voice of Reason, 1980

Awo On Full Development And Employment Of All Talents
"When all the talents in society are not fully developed, it is not the individuals that are adversely affected alone who suffer; the society as a whole suffers as well. Now, granting that every Nigerian is given an opportunity to develop his talents, it is imperative that he should also be given an opportunity to employ these developed talents. Full development of man and his full employment are not only social imperatives, but also inseparably inter-connected and complementary."
-Address delivered to Ondo State House of Assembly (1980): In Voice of Wisdom (1981)

Apart from his face being on 100 Naira notes, some other achievements of the late sage who hailed from Ikenne, Ogun State are catalogued below;

1.) He named Nigeria’s national currency as ‘Naira’ when he was the Federal Commissioner for Finance. The late sage took the name of Nigeria and collapsed it as ‘Naira’

2.) Awolowo introduced free primary education for all and free health care for children in the Western Region.

3. )He established the first television station in Africa in 1959.

4. )He also erected the first skyscraper in tropical Africa:the Cocoa House (still the tallest in Ibadan).

5.) Awo as fondly called was conferred by President Shehu Shagari with the title of the Grand Commander of the Federal Republic (GCFR), the first and only non-president to be so honoured in recognition of his sterling qualities and contributions to the service of the country.

6.) He was the first individual in the modern era to be named Leader of the Yorubas (Yoruba: Asiwaju Omo Oodua), a title which has come over time to be conventionally ascribed to his successors as the recognized political leader of the Yoruba peoples of Nigeria.

7.) The man widely believed by admirers to be the best President Nigeria never had was the first Leader of Government Business and Minister of Local Government and Finance and first Premier of the Western Region under Nigeria’s parliamentary system, from 1952 to 1959.

So no one here didn't register in 2005/06?

Haaa.!

If you assassinate them, won't you elect another crop of useless people to lead you?

[s]

Rosskiiku:
You people calling for break up of the country because of 'Fulani people' are not thinking straight.

Since when did Fulani become so all-powerful that Nigeria must break up because of them?

Why?

How?

All it takes is for Buhari to be voted out at the next elections, replaced by a southerner, possibly an Igbo man, and the so-called almighty power of the Fulani is HISTORY.

So what is all this nonsense?

When PDP were in power, what did Fulanis do? Nothing. The power was all over the country.

The south wielded heavy power.

Controlled billions of dollars in oil earnings.

So what is all this Fulani this, Fulani that, today?

Meanwhile, the Buhari experience will only make Nigerians more reluctant to vote in a Fulani president in future, so the democratic process will intervene to correct itself.

By the time another Fulani is elected president, say in 12 years time, the country would have been significantly restructured and arranged in a way that no president can alter it, whatever ethnicity he belongs to.

Plus, an objective person will admit that it has not been all bad with THIS Fulani president. He has done well in infrastructure.

Every cloud has a silver lining.

Why can't you wait for elections to effect change?

A mere 1 and half year's time away.

Organise for change at the next elections.

We're a democracy.

No need to break up this African giant.

Taleleyi?

nlreserve:
Itchekiri is Bini, Bini is Yoruba. Therefore, itshekiri is Yoruba. This is logic.
We are not after that. We are after breaking Nigeria into pieces so that the selfish politicians can be held responsible when they are living in your backyard. Nigeria is too big to be a country try in Africa. Until Africa develop, no Nigeria.

Gbam!

See the truth is.

Itshekiri palace is Bini

While Bini palace is Yoruba.

[s]

EzeNri:
Itsekiris traced their origin from Bini, so I don't understand why Yorubas are trying to blackmail them into accepting Yoruba as their origin like they did to Aworis and Ijebus.

Itsekiris and others voted overwhelmingly in the plebiscite of 1963 to exit the yoruba-controlled Western region to join their Bini brothers in the Mid-Western.

If they are Yorubas, why did they voted MASSIVELY to leave the western region?

Here is an extract of the history of Itsekiris from Britannica—the world's largest encyclopedia.


Just like Itsekiris, here are other non-yorubas, our yoruba brothers are fighting hard to smuggle into their yoruba ethnic group:

1. Ijebu

2. Aworis

3. Egbas

4. Ilajes

5. Isale-Eko

6. Ife (Igbo settlement)

7. Ugbo

8. Bini (their biggest attempt at land grabbing)

9. Eguns

Biafranboys:


I can speak for them because I was born there and I know what they want, forget the muric and Co as they do not speak for the yorubas, the yorubas are tired and even if they have lagos the fulanis are still holding them back.

The problem with the fulanis is because they don't know how to pretend they do everything with impunity, like nothing will happen

You can never see igbos and yorubas kill each other, but everything yorubas fight the fulanis

Look we are wiser now and you people can not break us anymore

True sha
