onumadu:
Well there's a video making rounds in social media where Tinubu was completely ignored by SA president Ramaphosa while greeting other African leaders.
Nigeria's president looked like a houseboy who managed to find his way among leaders. He was simply ignored.
A whole president of Nigeria.
Chai.

Babangidapikin:
Thanks for stopping the misinformation.

onumadu:
wow, that didn't even take time to appear here.

God1000:
It must be a mistake

Babangidapikin:
It might be a honest mistake, or they know their man the COS is controlling the President.

0001Lagos:
South Africa president ramaphosa has snubbed tinubu as seen in a video that has now gone viral.

The South Africa president greeted other African leaders handshake by handshake but pretending like he didn't see tinubu even as tinubu looked him in the eyes but was still ignored .

This is a big disgrace to the once giant of Africa .

omoredia:
MNK has called the security situation in the east for what it really is. It is a false flag operation by the APC federal government and that's the truth.

Akenzua01:
Ijebu people are not yorubas, unity beggars..

When you're done insulting them, you now want to claim good people.

Two-faced hypocrites.

Akenzua01:
Can you imagine how the idiot was insulting the whole Ijebu tribe?

This yoruba people sef, no wonder why Igbos hate them so much, now I see the numerous reasons, mtcheeww.

christejames:
Quite informative...



More like a Homecoming!

Kalakulu:
Wetin concern me with Yiboo? I'm talking about how you other yorubas have maligned us Ijebus for so long and you are here shifting post. See how unstable mental case patient Kemi Olunloyo insulted the entire Ijebu people. Awujale must hear this 😠

Kalakulu:
Sharrap there, it's no secret that the other inferior yorugba groups are envious of the Ijebu people cause they don't like to be associated with yorubaas. Why did Akintola (an Ogbomoso man) connive with the North to arrest and charge Awolowo for treason? why did the political differences between the Ijebu and Ogbomoso people pitch the western region into a serious crisis that triggered the infamous "we tie" riots...you can deceive yourselves with your fake unity rubbish but history can't be hidden! Stop antagonizing the Ijebu people! it's not their fault they that are more sophisticated than the other yorubaas.

christejames:
E no concern me, na family palaver!






But she has a point, what is the essence of Ojude?

Zooposki:
How can they claim all the shoreline? You think other tribes in South South are stupid? It’s called Bight of Benin for a reason, and not Bight of Ijaw.

Nelsondiego69:
swears bro 😁🤣

Nelsondiego69:
these yoruba men be looking like monki"*es 😁

okoro:
One bullet to his empty skull would have been better

Bookhub:
We ijebus are not Yoruba's kemi mind you business.

Kalakulu:
She made particularly demeaning epithet about Ijebus by calling them cultists, ritualist and jealous & greedy people.

Personally I sense there are some deep-seated animosity, envy and disdain other yoruba groups have towards the Ijebu people, probably because thr Ijebu people don't act like typical yorubas as they are more educated, wealthier and much more unique in their undiluted Ijebu identities compared to the lower yoruba groups who are largely uncivilized. I can now understand why many Ijebus don't feel they are yorubaas or accepted enough because of their success.

gidgiddy:
That's because you are a Nigerian, Nnamdi Kanu is not

gidgiddy:
IPOB leader, Nnamdi Kanu, addressed the issue of Soldiers killed in Aba on May 30th, while attending court today. He maintained that IPOB is a peaceful organisation not interested in making anyone a widow, and that IPOB is only interested in freedom. One of his Lawyers opined to Kanu in the video that the whole thing was a false flag operation
