Let Yoruba decide what is good for them........ Poke nosing will not help it..... Gragra method no work.... We are perfectly waiting for the best time

Who are these Yorubas waiting for the perfect time...
I'm sure the perfect time is when Tinubu becomes president..
Well the obas have spoken and they want the border opened...
We sensible, practical Yorubas not feeding off tinubu rent seeking system also wants the border opened for all SW/Yorubas exporters.
Not everything will wait for Tinubu self destructive ambition.

SuperBold:
If igbos have problem with the north or Hausa.... They should be brave to confront them not roping or using Yoruba as leverage.... This always annoys the Yorubas..... This is a trade war between the north and east

I really don't understand how some of u think..
Its not out of place to say the present generation of yorubas are the most indolent in modern era...or should I say it's the rent seeking political n economic system orchestrated by Tinubu at work....
The FG closed the border for 18 months n now decide to open it for just one person. Yet u see nothing wrong with it. Is Dangote the only exporter we have in Nigeria?

Go to otta n Agbara, those manufacturers are the worst hit with the border closure. The leverage they enjoy by exporting their products to other west African countries have been destroyed by the closure, their supply chain was equally disrupted. It severely impacted on their gain.

I really wonder the kind of economic system u people want for Yoruba land. A system where 1 or 2 persons control the market? Am not surprise because tinubu is already doing that in Lagos n u guys are very happy. Dangote can as well control the rest....

Brilliant that you don't live in Naija,why haven't you be on the $100k salary per annum?
You guys talk as if you have monopoly of google and the happenings in these places,you talk as if it's only your friends that resides in these countries.
Why not migrate and see what awaits you? you think is only the developing nation's that make up these informations to trap people?
when people talk of $100k jobs,they are talking about the peak salaries not that as a starting point.
I have loads of friends that had been in the state since 1992,some other went to college there and have their first and second degree,yet they are not in that salary cader yet,You wey you still dey run for immigration and police in that God forsaken country you are is here disputing what was confirmed by those who are in the system for decades.
Why not enter road go dey do the work now,sebi you don get all info for google? apply for Visa and start earning now.
Yèyé dey bath u

Peak salary in the USA 100k .....
Specialist nursing practioners earn more than that on average.

Have u heard of the word silicon valley b4? If yes, pls Google the average salary in the region.

U and your friends are the ignoramus Nigerians I talked about earlier, suffering in the midst of plenty. It's not about the number of degrees, but how smart u are with the degrees.
Did u watch the video I sent u.....the girl had to change her career to remain relevant.
Look here..I don't have your time this morning, I need to get ready for work.
Or else, I will flog ignorance commot your brain with facts.
I hate half educated people...very difficult to correct.

Solatium:
Make you dey deceive yourself,that figure been bandied around is the total worth, home's car's and investment Worth if there is any,not cash.
The problem with people living in Nigeria is that they don't understand all these things,they go around with half information.
I am standing here to tell you that as a Migrant, especially of a black descent NO ONE WILL PAY YOU $100K per annum,for you to attain such salary grade you must have worked yourself up with over 10yrs experience in the United States itself and it means there is no Native American vieing for that position.
Your friend wey dey run for loan knows why,if he collect am,na the thing wey go kill am be that.
You think say too much gbèsè for developed economy na better thing?
People dey run for ordinary credit card with spending limit of over $5k you dey here dey talk of collecting $1m loan.
Na house him wan take am buy abi na business him wan take am do?

Who counts liabilities as part of assets. Have u heard of net worth b4?
U sit down in your home n write nonsense ......
Instead of u to use Google to cure your ignorance.
My friend just finished his residency as a cardiologist n his first job offer was 300 thousand dollars.
Guys are picking 100 thousand dollar job right out of graduate school n u are here talking what I don't know.
Go n read about h1b visa. America issues 70 thousand of them every year. Check out the average salary of the visa holders.
U guys will not use information available online to improve your lives. Rather u will be looking for who to scam. No wonder there are few blacks in silicon valley. Bunch of ignoramus.

Thank God there are smart blacks, below is the story of a young naija girl who got a 200 thousand dollar job after graduate school.

And who told u I live in nigeria

planetx:
You are dumb and an illiterate if you think giving the US government $900k is worth just having a US passport. 99% of Americans will never see $900k till they die and you are saying because of electricity, Sars bla bla someone should go and dash US government $900k because America is heaven.

99% of americans will never see $900k till dey die!!!!!
Oga dey lie lie small small....we not all kids here.
U talking of America here, not some European country.
Those people get money die. Don't let their current social issues or recent China rise fool u.
America boast of 22 million people who are worth more than $1million...
Their adult upper class population is around 70 million. These are class of people that can approach a bank for a loan of 1 million dollars.
My friend who just qualified as a cardiologist already has is bank disturbing him to come n collect a loan of 1 million dollars.
That country is still the real deal....4get all these Canada, Europe or Aus. How many of them offers a fresh immigrant a 100 thousand dollars job? Something very common in the USA.

flokii:
This is not time for tribalism but you left all your bad leaders to start chasing leaders of other tribes.. Let us hear Tinubu from any bastard's mouth again..

Serpents!

Their bad leaders didn't send soldiers to kill innocent protesters...
They are way too smart n loyal for that.
But your Tinubu and clueless sanwoolu allowed the bloodshed of innocent souls in Yorubaland.
So whose house and properties should be burnt....

Buratai must end up in ICC and thrown into jail.
That should be the first step towards pacifying protesters.

luvmijeje:
Bullshi.t. Tinubu will deliberately not shoot himself in the foot and I will tell why he won't in 1 word.

2023.

Tinubu is finished. Get over it.
Despite his jagbanjantis, he was overplayed by bunch of semi-educated fulani politicians.
All because of greed.Thats what happen when u sacrifice ur people for some personal ambition.
As for 2023...It's going to be about restructuring n not one nonsense presidency.
U better go n learn handiwork...A restructured nigeria will be tough for lazy youths looking for crumbs from politician.
And a resurgent Yoruba nation will not tolerate corrupt n incompetent public officials. We will deal with them ruthlessly.
A lot of governors will not finish their tenure...They will abandon their office n run away.

ecolime:
Fight for restructure by destroying your own property?

This is Africa- things get done by use of force.
The only message an African govt understand is violence.
Otherwise they won't go to lekki n shoot peaceful protesters who were neither looting nor burning.
If u have a better plan, push for it.
Otherwise keep quiet...

GistFullGround:










Why is that nobody is burning properties in the North?

Demonstrate, but don't burn!

because there own is in power. It's always like that.
Reason why we must fight for restructuring.
Let every region handle their affairs and deal with their own leaders.

spendoon:
I hope it's not true bruh, because it going to turn into a deadly tribal war, the West should know better at first I was also angry with the north for backing off and not supporting the endsars protest but I later came to realise the whole thing had been hijacked by people who hate buhari because his a northernan and trying to end Nigeria.

Hijacked by who....
Army came and shot at peaceful protesters....
It's like some of u Yoruba youths are under a spell...
Fulani northerners that set up tinubu n sent army to kill southerners...yet u see nothing wrong in that..
What's the big deal about nigeria that it shouldn't end.
Whether u guyz like or not...It's either nigeria restructure or it disintegrates.
Yorubaland will be free and we will deal with all traitors, saboteurs and evil politician.

ibedun:
You will be shot dead for nothing.

Yes changes are required but not by arson, looting, criminality and anarchy.

The vast overwhelming majority of reasonable matured Yoruba people will vote for Tinubu’s protégés. Next time the vote Yoruba men will be ready to put down the dangerously misguided fools called youth. I hold Falz responsible for all the anarchy that had taken place in the last few days.

I no get your time.
Extend my condolence to tinubu..
Provided he knows u.

ibedun:
Mad man, you are destroying your region burning public infrastructure and you say you are fighting for what?

Tinubu this Tinubu that, are you a planned birth? Or your papa born you throwaway!

Oya keep burning everything, akotileta omo ale!

Show me the picture of the people killed, with their names, just 2! Oya!

This one is still on tinubu...he's done for n buried. Get over it.
better go and learn a craft, lazy fool.
No room for joblessness in the new republic.
If u think there will be 30k BMC job when yorubaland is restructured, u must be joking.
Hardwork will be the only way to wealth- no more free money.
We will deal with any nonsense elected public official ruthlessness...
Na small una see today.
Most governors will not even finish their term. They will abandon the office for fear of lynching.
Una never see anything...no wonder most present Yoruba politicians are clinging to this evil unitary system.

ibedun:
IGBO INSTIGATED THE FOOLISH SENSELESS COWARDLY YORUBA IDIOTS TO BURN DOWN LAGOS!

The foolish OBAs all over Yoruba land sat there like MUMUS watching Igbo migrating to our land without restraint or restriction. WE saw the result today!!!!

Igbo shops at risk everywhere.

Will u shut up...
Is it ibo man that sent army to kill peaceful protesters..
Is it ibo man that removed cctv at lekki toll gate.
Ode oshi.
Let's finish dealing with the useless traitors called politicians in Yorubaland.
Then we will come for u fulani ass lickers.
Yorubaland must be free...no more attache to any other region. No room for leeches n lazy mind.

hamzeiy:
Are yorubaz this stupid to realize this is an attack on them collectively...Educated people indeed. You can't even stand for your leader that is obviously been attack out of malice.
You should learn from what Kano youth did on Monday to the trouble makers.

If the leader u referring to is tinubu..then your argument is dead on arrival.

aribisala0:
Not necessarily .

If the person goes there to mess up they disgrace all Nigerians so there is nothing wrong speaking against their candidacy and everything wrong supporting them just BECAUSE they are Nigerian.
I would support Oby Ezekwesili but I can never support NOI.

I believe she owes greater allegiance to the West than Africa even when she was Finance Minister. Who knows which of her and her husband's secrets are in the hands of the US

The much touted "comptence" we never saw in Nigeria

All we saw was blunder after blunder, scandal after scandal

If kayode Ogundamisi had argued along this line, I'll understand his divergence opinion.
We don't all have to agree and not every Nigeria should support okonjo.
But digging up a dirt that bears no resemblance to present issue is in poor taste n gives room for people to think there's an ulterior motive.

babaolofin:
This is not a tribal issue. I believed you are not from Ogun State you are just living in Ogun State. Psychologically, and from intelligence reviews of what you posted above, I can pick so many things there. Firstly, Arunma Oteh was not among the first eminent Nigerians that defended Adesina when US and few foreign investors in AfDB rejected the probe outcome. Chief Obasanjo and major African leaders supported him. We know how the probe became tribal war between Yorubas and IBOs on various social media and government / International Institutions. Now, everybody can claim to support him. The issue you raised about paid campaign against NOI shows your tribal bloc and sentiments .

U very funny...
Adesina's late brother was our neighbour while growing up and he comes around to greet. That's to tell u how well I know him.
Check my posts...I supported adesina on this forum like no tmrw. Not because he's from my state or tribe, I was just pissed off with the way America wanted to rubbish him....afdb was a dead organisation until he came on board and brought life into the bank. He deserved his 2nd term.
Yes, some hopeless ibo tribal bigots on social media including nairaland mocked him. They accused him of nepotism, they said that's how Yoruba people behave forgetting most of his appt in afdb favoured ibos.
But eminent ibos like Peter obi n aruma oteh supported him, and that's what matter.
Okonjo is renowned banker and economist globally. Her credential is solid and deserves the post. We Nigerians should support her irrespective of tribe.
Kayode Ogundamisi is a renowned publicist of Yoruba lineage. His actions carry weight and shouldn't be seen engaging in such distasteful campaign. The best he could do if he's not happy with okonjo is to shut up.

babaolofin:
You the IBOs are very parochial and sentimental in your thinking. Very absurd and most times irrational on matters that require objectivity. Firstly, Nigerians have no voting power and the eventual winner is determined by several factors only known to the clique that controls WTO.

Madam Ngozi was the finance minister and head of the economic team under Jonathan - the government that made the highest revenue in the history of Africa till date but without saving one kobo, but borrowed heavily and spent over $20 billion out of the reserve Obasanjo left. That is the greatest fraud in the history of Africa. Estimated $100 billion got wasted / looted under her watch.

The IBOs can never see anything bad in that fraud because it favours them. The Yorubas don't support evil and as such have nothing against Ngozi, otherwise, Obasanjo should have written to the board of WTO to drop her.

Kemi Olunloyo has written against prominent yoruba citizens based on information available to her, Sahara Reporters have done same. We have internal political, religious and socio - cultural dichotomy in yoruba land creating rooms for diverse opinions. This is missing in IBO land. Fela sang against Abiola (ITT) and Obasanjo, they were all from the same town and childhood friends, in IBO, anything against them is hatred for the entire IBO, no objectivity at all.

Yes, I agree we Yorubas have a strong dichotomy on various ideologies, something I'm proud of n will strongly encouraged. Because at the end of the day, that's what makes us different and sophisticated.

But our independent mindedness is borne out of logical reasoning and critical thinking, not sentiment or emotions.
I'm sorry to say, but kayode's rhetoric pandered to the later.....

I've read okonjos plan for WTO- very forward thinking and insightful. She made it clear every member country should pay there fair share and the agency should face up to the global economic reality of the 21st century- something Trump has been calling for.
Besides, the dynamics and environment she worked in as minister of finance is totally different from WTO. So why apply the former template to the later.

I've always suspected the guy to be an ass.hole and an ethnic chavunist, and he just confirmed it.
He will do well to tweet more about the incompetence of buhari and the corruption allegation levelled against Tinubu.
Thank u.

seunmsg:
Is Sarah Chayes Yoruba? Can we stop Sarah Chayes from saying whatever she intends to say?

Kayode Ogundamisi shouldn't be quoting the smear n possibly paid campaign against against Okonjo. That's very stupid of him to do that....
Aruma oteh was among the first eminent personality to publicly back adesina during his own trial...
That's how it should be.

Okonjo iweala may have performed below par as finance minister but this is not the time to bring it up.
This is about nigeria, Africa and the black race in the global scene, n all he could do as way of contribution is to highlights her weakness on social media...
That's very mean n petty of him, and until he publicly apologise...he remains stu.pid
I'm from Ogun state by the way.

DerideGull:
The bolded indicates you are a pawn of globalists. It is very unintellectual to refer humans as "white or black". The earth I know is inhabited by ONE race and it is human race. You could do yourself good by being fundamentally educated. It is a shame the act of enjoying the free air by Africans depended on the free will of Europeans and Americans. What a lost course.

Forget this idealistic talk....race is still very much valid and important in the 21st century.
Why is China trying to displace America at the top in order to become the sole global superpower.
Power is shifting east and the West are concerned. According to u, why should they be worried? Are we not the same race?
Even within a country, race is everything. Donald trump refused to condemn white supremacist on national tv despite repeated attempt to make him do so.

Alexbell is right. U guys are just being emotional.
Nigeria will never breakup peacefully except the international community approves.
And right now, they love the present state of nigeria- big but useless, a non-competitive, largely consuming nation with dumb leaders that can be easily exploited.
That's what they wanted to make of Russia until Putin took over.
They also won't let Nigeria descend into anarchy due to the potential overwhelming refugee crisis.
Just like they did with Abiola, Abacha, niger delta crisis n even former president jonathan; they will rearrange the political system to ensure Nigeria unity continues.

The only time the western nation will consider breaking up nigeria is when a nigerian leader makes the country a powerful n productive nation, setting the pace for the liberation of the black race.

Realino:
this is the truth, but Nigerian don't like learning new things, they still believe in impossibilities, and this SAN is trying to open our eyes into the provisions we should really claim for ourselves as established in the 1999 CFRN, yet some people that are chanced to be on this platform to learn and be enlightened about these things so that they can teach the people that don't have such opportunity are the ones criticizing what they should be welcoming with appreciation, change starts from here my people, let us learn from little things before we start aiming at the ones that are very much far from us

Fashola should tell buhari to restructure the country.
This way, federating units will be empowered to take up more responsibility.
I just don't understand why those in position of authority always look for ways to absolve themselves of their incompetence.

Ehiscotch:
Nigerians can throw a fit and don't know how to react rationally.

Fashola just said the truth really but Nigerians take pride in being antagonistic and they love the Deja vu; I guess there is a thrill to it embedded in us.

Basic amenities like that are to be covered by the State Government. The FG can't be everywhere and they embark on projects that take years to accomplish: rails, roads, ports etc.

Nigeria has so much challenges that a government can achieve so little in eight years, especially with corruption so endemic and institutionalized.

Listen(sic), before you mention. You would keep moaning and groaning and wailing for eight years of Buhari and then the next government and then the next, until you realise the fundamental details of governance and hold them sensibly to it, devoid of emotions or sentiments or prejudice.

I feel a need to reemphasize. This is NOT about APC/ Buhari or what no. I am feeling the burning effects of the economic downturn but I am grateful to God for the ability to detach emotion for rationality.

I then hope u will support restructuring that will ensure power n more responsibilities go to the federating units.

smallsmall:
Irrespective of what all of you here are saying, No Hospital has the right to abridge a Patients Right to Freedom, without a valid Court Order!
It is called KIDNAPPING!
I am really fuming right now that a Hospital would do this, even after she has paid #160,000.00!
Look at the gilr that was able to produce that amount of money, does she look like a rich person?
And to think that the matter was reported to the Police and they didnothing? What manner of stupid Policement are those?

IGNORANCE is at play here! Our Hospital owners are taking too much law into their hands of recent and this must be curbed.
The worst the Hospital could do is to come to a written, repayment arrangement with her, which is enforceable at law but to hold her against her will will land that MD in Prison, if he doesnot release her immediately.
If you hold anyone against their will, it is Kidnapping, at Law, so iffs, no butts.
Even the Police are only allowed "limited time" to hold somebody without charging them to court, usually for simple cases, itis 24hrs otherwise you MUST release them on Bail.
For Capital offences like Murder, you have to charge them to court and the Court will most liley refuse bail and thus remand the accuse in prison pending trial date.

I will be petitioning the Human Rights office at Alausa, Ikeja over this nonsense but how come the NAME of the Hospital is missing in this Report or is it a fake story?

Oga help her pay the outstanding balance n stop speaking nonsense in the name of grammar.
If the hospital had refused her treatment, u guys will be the one insulting doctors...
Or she didn't know the road to govt hospital b4 carrying herself to private facility...

Haykinx98:
Then why did Trump only bark and bark on Twitter instead of carrying out his threat after Iran hurled 8 missiles at US military base at Iraq for Just One drone attack without fear of Trump's threat and still promised to do more if Trump wants war. US did it in Iraq and go scot free but they saw Iranians are ready for them

USA too is lowkey afraid of their threat,Make dem no use World Power bobo us

Iran supporters are shameless...
America killed the 2nd most powerful person in Iran n all u could do in retaliation was to throw empty shells aimlessly. The worst aftermath was headache for some US soldiers. Iran even killed her own people in the so called retaliation.
What a humiliation!!!

Nigerian definition of beauty is wack...
Yet some of them here will be dragging issues with iron galaxy on the other thread...
