Indeed. They are the emtional, unrealistic and oversabi Yorubas, if he is even Yoruba, that would not see the big picture decades ago and sold Awolowo and the Yoruba cause out, as OP is inferring, to the detriment of us all.

No Yoruba candidate can be President in 2023 other than Tinubu or any Yoruba Tinubu supports with all his might, political machinery and war chest as he did for Buhari.

If Yorubas are undone in 2023 it will mainly be the fault of weak links and myopic tools like that StaffofOrayan.

Can you tell me how Fulani can become president without the support of a southerner and how a southerner can be president without the support of a Fulani?

Who handed Obasanjo power? Is it not the Fulanis?

Who handed Buhari power, is it not the Yorubas?

Now both have handed each other power one time or another.

Then why do we always make it a duty to call the southerners that hand Fulani power backstabbers, betrayers, cowards and turn back to call those fulanis that handed southerner power are called kingmakers, superior, strategists and etc?

Can you tell me how a southerner can rule without the input of at least one part of the North and vice versa.

Moreso since 1999, southerners have ruled more than the North in a democracy. So what’s with all these things we say about Fulani domination. Why are the Southern president stupid to pursue southern interest like Buhari is doing for the North?

Will you rather blame the North for Jonathan pleasing them at the detriment of the south? Is it the North people fault that the Southern presidents always want to be more Jesus than the pope by pursuing equity in a crazy country like Nigeria where people don’t follow rules?

First of all, I will never support RUGA, not in this life or the hereafter. I hate it when you just throw out words just because you can on Nairaland.

Bro I understand your grievances and you have a point. You said the Fulanis kill the daughter of our leader and that naturally should get us angered which we all do. But do you even know the North itself is like a killing field? Bandits, Boko Haram, Kidnappers, and even the sultan came out the other day to scream about their insecurities.

Face reality, if we can’t defend ourselves as Yorubas against the terroristic Fulanis on our home soil, we will be stupid to wait for Buhari to help us defend our land especially when he can’t even defend his home state of Katsina.

You call me a pretender lol? If because the conservative side of the Yorubas supported Buhari in 2015 is the crux of your argument, then I can say it’s nonsense. The last time I heard Nigeria is a democracy where everyone has the right to vote for their candidate. Buhari fooled everyone, we saw in him a messiah in 2015 and like every politician known for their promise and fail, he failed us completely and turned out worse.

I would have let your last sentence pass but I hate it when a Yoruba like me is thinking like an Ibo man. Is Osinbajo a Muslim? Is Osoba a Muslim? Is Baba Akande a Muslim? Is Adeboye a Muslim? Is Bakare a Muslim? Is WOLE Soyinka a Muslim? Is Obasanjo a Muslim?

Do you know the above people supported Buhari openly in 2015 and Buhari got votes from both Muslims and Christians in the SW?

Ya’ll need to grow up and stop seeing the Fulanis as superior. Threachery and backstabbing have always been a game of politics which each tribe in Nigeria have used to their advantage and disadvantage. The Fulani succeed in using treachery because the South see themselves as 3 entities, while the North sees itself as one.

Coming online daily screaming Fulani this and that only show We South is an aggregate of alarmist who can’t hold our leaders accountable but falling for the trick of Fulani caused this and that to loot us dry.

What’s with you feeble minded Yorubas on this forum self? Why do you have to call me a Fulani and supporting an Ibo in trying to sow discord by saying a certain moniker is Fulani or Hausa?

All that rubbish started mostly after the end sars protest. All through my days on Nairaland, they have always engaged me as a Yoruba and suddenly during the end sars protest, the ibos started getting scared of what the Yorubas could do to them and they were cowardly calling me and other folks Fulani all of a sudden.

I have noticed you especially, I know you’re tired of Nigeria and you’re a proponent of Oduduwa republic. That’s nice because that what I wanted also. So don’t think because I’m here discussing politics or not helping you to abuse and insult the Fulanis online everyday make me less of a Yoruba.

I have seen that most southerners are stupid. You come online everytime to profess Fulani superiority and accuse them for every wrong bedeviling us. I chose not to see Fulani as a more superior mind like some southerners always see it.

It is politics, a game of numbers. The Fulani have understood that and they have blended with the Hausas to use that power of numbers. In as much as we practice democracy and a single country, they will always have a say in who rules the country.

So how can you wrestle power from them? The will and you must beat them at their own game of treachery. The author already showed you the treacherous nature of these guys and how they were able to dominate by putting people against each other and exploiting that to their advantage.

To deal with people like that, you should thread the same path because politics by nature is treacherous. All these talks of betrayal, coward, and bla bla bla is just nonesense. In politics, you need to betray, offend, and maneuver to swim the murky waters.

Ya’ll should grow up and stop blaming the Fulanis everytime, it’s getting stale.

But the beneficiaries of the "empowerment" are not complaining.

And I bet they are very grateful.

Very strange.

If the son is wise , he would hang is phone some were to video them, from his narrative the operation was long

ZZ22:
The difference is most Igbos call out these our evil politicians. We call them out, we even lay hands on them whenever we see them without their security details BUT that's not the case with these recruited Tinubu attack dogs on nairaland and the whole online forums.

For your information these handles you are calling Fulanis are pure Yoruba Muslims who do all they can to please Fulanis. Don't act like you don't know their allegiances is to Sokoto Caliphate first before any other thing. Muric comes to mind

Pierocash:
If Nigeria is 3rd, where does Libya belong? What of somalia? Pakistan and Palestinian nko?

Nigeria is more peaceful and safer than most of this Western, and Arab Nations

CSTRR:
Exactly.

Fowler turned FIRS to a Yoruba union.
And I heard from a confidential source that he had a lot of Yoruba side chicks and girlfriends on his payroll from federal money.

The North kicked him out and put their man in and the south looked on.

Why wouldn't we? He was serving Yoruba interests only.

Is it morning in Nigeria, it a really Sunny day in the starship Avalon, actually I'm chatting from homestead 2

AlexBells:
To me, The concept of Igbo presidency had always been a victim mentality, we should talk about South East presidency and when that happens, I would really be happy if an Igala man from Anambra or an Ette man from Enugu or any other minority tribe in the South East to go for president, Nigeria is built on selfish platforms, how could we keep talking about Igbo presidency, what about other minority tribes are they not Nigerians as well

Christistruth00:
Nigerians are incredibly blessed by God

My advice to FG is to please empower the Area boys and girls by employing them as at least Security Guards and Cleaners for the Station irrespective of if they are Educated or not.


They will not allow anyone to attack their place of employment

Haba Mallam. They arrested the one time most wanted terrorist in the world, Albarnawi. The US Government had pledged to pay plenty millions of Dollars for information leading to his arrest. CIA looked for him for years. Leave sentiment. Attack the issue

Conrod:
Wow,yet you hate and critisize ipob?

In these Dangerous times and Seasons, you have to Pray against the Spirit of Death and any other evil spirits..

Many of these things are not Normal

mightyhazel:
This excuse is flimsy.. support the igboman first,like the igboman has supported the yoruba and hausa man in the past.. never mind what happens after that.. just like the igboman never second-guessed what would happen in future before he supported hausa and yoruba

mightyhazel:
So be it..


The truth is that the igboman doesn't really care about who rules ,just make the ground level for competition and opportunities.. its the way hausas and yorubas carry on with the matter,mocking others as second fiddlers that's where the problems emanate from..

Now,the right thing (perhaps the next right thing) must be done ,or we remain in centrifugal motion.. Reno has already given us an insight as to has a better adaptation to centrifugal motions..

BastardWike:
The envy many Nigerians have towards Igbos is largely borne out of jealousy. I will give you an example. If you're rich, young and successful, go and live in an environment where most people are poor, suffering and hopeless, and see how they will hate you for no reason.

Go to the North and see Igbos owning the only big shops or supermarkets in their small towns and villages. Owning the only building materials or chemist shop. Providing services the locals can provide themselves at cheap rates and still cashing out. Living in decent houses and riding cars in the midst of poverty.

Go to the West and see them owning the businesses while the natives rely on civil servants salary or taxi driver jobs. While government will be delaying or paying them half their salaries, Igbos will be providing vital services and earning good profits in return. These are the basic things that bring envy on the Igbos. It's a sad reality.
