PoliticsRe: Gen Yusuf Appointed New Guards Brigade Commander by skullbaba: 11:42am On Jul 23, 2015
Reference:
So tribe is alive and well. Tomorrow the same you, yes you will come here and say, under this new government we are seeing competence replacing sentiments. I think we are just..... wasting our time. Without restructuring this country, nothing will ever change. You can change government all you like, you cannot change the Nigerian mentality and psyche, which drives everything and is the reason why we are the way we are. I don't expect Buhari to do otherwise because I have not deceived myself. It is not his fault and it is normal. Nigeria makes you sectional by default.
. Hello, there is no country where there is no sectionalism, in a nuclear family of two children the father will love a child more than the other it nornmal and humanly. The so call united states is under the influence of the caucasian even though they try to diversify. That is why all their top agencys are lead by white, the directors, billionairs are mostly white. You know how they did it ? It is Simple, it is called 'organised' the latinos that brought drug to the will be arrested, the blackman that sell it will be arrested but the whiteman that control the price, hide the money and use it at wall street will escape. The problem of we africans is that we are not organised, the ndigbo are organised in business structure by taking over the country business, the NORTHERNERS ( igala, hausa,fulani,jukuns,tapa,berom,etc) are organised in taking over politics, the yorubas are organised in academics and journalism. Until will learn to marry this organisation that we will succed. Even if nigeria split there is going to a race e.g in Biafra some are anglican, some are catholic, some believe in eze some don't, this petty things will divide us. There is always tribalism that is why there is racism in us and europe. To heal tribalism is tough than any other wound. With time we will understand that that there is nothing like tribalism but an element of capitalism to make profit

PoliticsRe: Fayose: Buhari Forfeited Half His Salary? I Am Ready To Forfeit All Of Mine by skullbaba: 12:32pm On Jul 19, 2015
Fayose should understand something his tenure ends before that of PMB, he should dig his grave too shallow so that when he will be push inside he will be able to get out easily. I am a buhari fan(sic) but truth need to be told military men don't forgive easily. And Fayose can't claim his hands are clean. He think he can do a 'tinubu' by leading the opposition, he may have the charisma but he lacks the resources ( money, media, disciples, international connection etc). Ekiti funds can sponsor another state local government election, talkless of using it to win another state. He should be careful

PoliticsRe: "the More States We Have, The Nearer The Government Is To The People" Quote By Senate Pres by skullbaba: 1:04pm On Jul 03, 2015
Op please edit the topic to ex- senate president. I will keep saying it , Nigeria should not have more than 15 governors. Ekiti and ondo should be merged, oyo and osun, ogun and lag. Southwest should have max 3 states. South east should have two states, south south two states, north central 3 states, norht westt 3 stattes and norht east 3 states total 16 plus abuja. These will be able to generate their incomes themselves, the cost of running govt will be cheap, what we need are majors since we have rendered our royals useless. There is always going to be minority issue this can be take care of in the house of representatives

Hope you know senator ndume's case is still in court after donkey years. you take this boko haram thing too simplistic.
how can I take an issue that claim lives, happines, infrastructure, econmy with levity hands. It is the job of the C in C to take control. Legislators don't have immunity, if he is guity charge him to court like Ndume. Even Ndume that was charged to court claimed he was negotiating on behalf of the government and the FG can't deny it

Azazi of blessed memory vindicated buhari by saying BH sponsorers are in PDP and he lose his job and life for saying the truth. Jonathan later confirm it that BH financiars are in his party and cabinet. What did he do. To them ?

My dear, aren't you in Nigeria? a lot of senators are walking freely when they should be sentenced to death the Indonesia way.
Don't tell me this is party politics unless you want to make it now in defense of yours... Will he agree to it... so the GEJ administration was witch hunting him is that what you are saying? Think please!
bro that was my point BH killed indiscrimatly. He won on the platform of PDP, he even defeated the incubent governor then in Ali modu sheriif who is from ANPP. Ali modu is now now in PDP, a lot of findings point out to Ali modu an one of the early sponsor of BH. Nigerians want somebody to be prosecuted whether witch hunting or not just prosecute somebody. OBJ witch hunt Tafa balogun, alams etc but the question is are they not corrupt ? Let him be prosecuted like kabir sokoto and let the cout judge

From what I read from the links provided, I don't see where this Man threaten Nigeria. What he did was attacked the federal govt of their irresponsibility. On the Boko boy arrested in his house, he denied and said it was in Ali modu,s house the BH commander was arrested. Guys let drop party politics, if this guy is guity did youu think the Govt, military, Ssss will let this guy go. We should stop twisting this guy speech, he accused the Govt and they blackmailed him simple. Senators don't have immunity why don't arrest, investigate and charge him to court ?

I don't want him to sole it in 10yrs. Problems are solve step at a time. The only problem he solve is the 'facts/indexes' he gave which I believe we need for the incoming administration to use as springboard

well u v a point, buh then, let's look at it together..

Do u think all dos indexes and facts about d transformation in d agriculture sector dropped from d moon..? No..as little as it is, he tried..its not easy standing out in a wasteful administration..
bro u just got my respect. You pass ypur opinion to me without insult or an intimidating tone. You are right one of the problem he solve is the fact and indexes he pointed out. Nigeria is having a big problem of of not keeping or tracking 'numbers/fact' but akinwumi stand difference and from my 'findings' South East is dominated by local rice and the Northern region is also trying on Agriculture the proble is We southwesterners that control the media. Having said that the Govt is too wasteful like you pointed out and our custom is too corrupt. We need stricter laws on importation
PoliticsRe: Dr Akinwwunmi Adesina: How I Met President Jonathan by skullbaba: 9:48pm On May 15, 2015
To me he is just marketting himself as usual. He is good at dosing out figurs from his head/paper without correlation/reflection with reality. With all his big numbers we are still importing rice, so what did do ? I believe he was 'successful' because he was media friendly and he has a good oratory skill. That all. People are going to agricylture using the old obsolete skills because of poverty, we need a sound government backed agricultural sector

Bro you started well until tribalism enter your brain. Didn't your stupid yes stupid Zik not a british agents, isn't Ojukwu father a britisg puppet to exploit Nigeria wealth to britain. All our leaders are guilty of seeking western recognition including GEJ that said America will because it is their money, didn't he seek Obama recognition before coming out to contest in 2011. I am a tribalist but you are a bigger one because you wake it in me. Insteafor both of us to join hands together to question our leaders who ise divide and rule tactics on is we are abusing tribe. All tribes are part of Nigeria problem and it is going to be All of us that will make her great. One Nation One people
akigbemaru:
All of them are gleefully taking pictures with Mr Blaire like my four year old will do with a father christmass. Nigerias political elite now needs British/western validation before they can feel comfortable in their skin! I don't know whether this is a sign of habitual inferiority complex or not but what has become very self evident is the fact that in their desperation to solidify the hausa-fulani/Yoruba political dominance in Nigeria, politicians from this part of the country have more or else smuggled Nigeria back into colonialism. . Unleashing a very anti nigerian brand of politicking that neglects the ordinary Nigerian while auctioning off this countrys economic assets to western multi nationals. We are more or else a colony my people. . , beholden to the whimps of our western overlords ably represented by some empty politicians always excited at the prospect of exchanging a handshake with any prominent western politician of 'note'. Zik of Africa must be spinning in his grave.

Lmao so Oyo created Oduduwa story
Tell me more. ...
Oh! Nd it was the Malians who called Oyo Yarriba

While Ekiti are an old people. .elements of pre-Oduduwa is still present in many towns but We were influenced by Ife as much as other groups
What Oduduwa did was uniting the whole nation under a strong political leadership and pass it to his son oranmiyan. Oranmiyan took this 'power' to Oyo. That why Ife is the religious home of the yoruba but Oyo the capital of the Nation. Oranmiyan built a strong political and miltary town of Oyo just like he did in bini. Mind you Bini has been existing but the political turmoil 'then' make them seek ife help. We yorube never created bini and vice versa we only help them. If you are doubting my history ask any babalawo where did OGUN and ESU went to heaven, they will tell you Ekiti. I am oyo boy/man, ekiti is older than oyo but is as old as ife so how come no historian mention them until the rise of Ibadan. What of ojo and ada two old town in osun. They are both beside ede. These towns are historical towns but because they own no military,political or economical and population advantage they are cheated historically.

falopey:
What do you know about history and ekiti people. I am an indegene of ekiti. Or do you know the origin and history of ekiti people more than the ekitis and their traditional ruler s who are the real custodian s of their historical origin? Or you just want to believe what white men and politics want you to believe? For your information, every ekiti Obas agree and share in the history of how their communities came to be that they migrated from ile ife. No one can rewrite their history. You don't start propagating what is untrue of a people you know nothing about just because you read what some gullibles want you to believe away from reality. When you want to know the origin of a people, you ask the traditional ruler of such communities. Ok?
bro/sis you never negate my point. I never said I know the history of ekiti better than you. What I am saying due to military and political power the oyos has over the ekiti before the ekiti parapo war has made the Oyo to distort history to prove their superiority and 'pureness'. Go and read samuel johnson, youw will think ekiti is not 'existing' prior to the rise of Ibadan. Ekiti is one of the 'pureress' yoruba tribe because of the terrain in that part of the country which make ekiti an enclave but we oyo treat them less before the ekiti parapo. If you go to the babalawo for consultation, you will hear them chanting ese-ifa or ayajo, and in these literary corpus you will hear them talking about ekiti and orunmila and other Gods telling you how old the ekiti is but in the oduduwa history Ekiti is neglected for the powerful kingdom 'then'
CultureRe: Seven Interesting Facts About The Ancient Yoruba Culture by skullbaba: 3:24pm On May 09, 2015
Not all yoruba are from oduduwa. The oduduwa story is created by 'WE' oyo to show supremacy, and this story was propagated by the likes of samuel johnson and co. If you check earlier writings like lagos census you will notice that it is only OYO that is call yoruba and others were represented with their own name too like the ijesa,igbomina, ekiti,ijebu etc there is even evence that it was the hausaa/fulani jihad that named the oyos 'Ya ri ba' which later change to 'yoruba'. To those that believe in oduduwa story what are you going to call the ekitis that never appear in the history of yoruba but appear in the more-guilded Ifa literary corpus that even oRunmila once lived and ruled part of ekiti before going to ile-ife. Any history anybody want to relate should try and compare his/her story well with Ese-Ifa cos it is more reliable than most assumptions because of it religious usefulness. One thing is certain 'WE OYO' are the Political and military guidance of the Yoruba Nation which helps us in distort history just like the former is also trying to do. Please Non-yoruba if you want to add to the discussion/argument/debate please use evidence from the Yoruba nation Only. Any evidence from other nation be it igbo,hausa,bini or europeans will be rejected by ME but people from other NATION can contributes. Thanks
