The Oba of Bini village must not allow Obaseki touch those Yoruba artefacts.

Yoruba?

TalkTalkTwins:
Ibadan landmass: 3,080 km²
Imo State landmass: 5,530 km²

If you want to act ignorant, it shouldn't be in a public forum

metropolis I different

AlexBells:
Look 2023 is an open ticket, but you guys have declared war against Fulanis and the first thing that they will make sure is that you don't get the presidency, now if you want to fight the Fulanis, they are not a pushover people, they have sovereign alternative just like you Yorubas.

Now I had always maintained that AlaIgbo shall be neutral and unless the Yoruba side or Fulani side attacks us, we are most likely not getting involved, we don't know when these whole issue started, in fact these issues between you and Fulanis is older than Nigeria, however since both side is our friends in recent times, we are open to leading dialogue and less costly ways of settling these issues.

Fulanis might have terrorist amongst them but that's not enough for us to declare war against them as Igbo people, we would rather set up a counter terrorism apparatus but it is clear the case with Yorubas are different and if Igbos found ourselves in such scenarios as we have such scenarios also but not with Fulanis, but we must exhaust all less confrontational approach before going offensive.

War is terrible, no one ever came out of one without counting serious losses

Better see them as your enemy
If not for Yoruba fought many times with them
Your name might be Abdul Oge

I don't care who the president is as far as he isn't a Fulani
We will show them
They might go extnnt
CAR will be a joke

Bifwoli:
And who or what tribe are the "Okoros" if i may ask as an outsider? (non Nigerian)

okoro is a tribal slur for the Igbo
As well as Afonja is for Yoruba
Those names are popular surnames

Where are you from?
Don't take these online brawls seriously
Na cruise

fourboys:

Easternblood:
Obasanjo na Ewe man?

Obasanjo is on his own

Fahdiga:
I reject it in Jesus name Amen

AlexBells:
So who owns the Ilorin and its environs lol, is Ilorin not the biggest and capital city in Kwara, did Fulanis not use Illorin/Kwara as a war camp against the Yorubas on two consecutive occasions, as at today, who owns Illorin. Ofcourse you might tell me as a Yoruba that to own Ilorin, can we hear the Fulani part of the story that's why there is no end to this menace, invasion and intrusion in into Yorubaland

we will deal with them like we've been doing for about 200 years

I'm planning for 2023

fourboys:

I live in otta
Abiodun is a disgrace

fourboys:
Apart from federal roads, no other road good for Ogun

lies
Federal roads are bad

Ogbuefi2020:
Onitsha and Nnewi will merge at oba and become a larger urban metropolis than lagos

If wishes were horses

Veggieseedies:
You are a man

Thanks for this truth, let's stop this unnecessary argument.


A man does not need comparison

Thanks jare
No need for all these

Easternblood:
Is there any real difference between yorubas and Fulanis?? I mean both are very greedy , vicious , corrupt lots and you both will get what is coming to you all soon

you mean between Igbo and Fulani?

AlexBells:
Oga stop the propaganda, every Igbo is not currently agitating for Biafra, you forgot Chukwuma Kaduna Nzeogwu, Emanuel Ifeajuna were both Igbos who preferred Nigeria until a referendum is conducted in Igboland, Biafra remains an option while Nigeria remains our country, so don't decide for the Igbos, we got no qualms with Fulanis afterall both Fulanis and Yorubas fought us during the war, today both Yorubas and Fulanis are our friends but we cant say same of Yorubas and Fulanis being friend, Ownership of Kwara state is still a heal to climb between the Fulanis and Yorubas

We own Kwara jointly with Nupe
All governors have always been Yoruba

Only Ilorin and environs is ruled by the Emir.

TMKsouth:

TMKsouth:
Yep, i've noticed from my 3 years here. That's why i avoid the politics section, could step on way too many toes. I just roam travel and foreign affairs.

Boudiccao:
Show me pictures of your people wearing clothes in the 17th century.
Even the science behind the so called clothes you talk about was first discovered in Mali and Igboland.
Yes, igbo civilization predate other Nigerian civilizations.

dey wine yourself
2,3,6 century Yoruba sculptures wore clothes

Mali ko japan ni

ahnie:
Hello sire
Pls may I ask you a question?

Yes.
You can. ma

I am not "sire"

eduj:
google translate go kill you bro.

mba means many things in igbo ,

mba with intonation means no

mba without it means a tribe/people

mba also means speaking in a harsh tone

Abegi leave Igbo for igbo's

mba miri basically means people of water

I didn't use Google translate
The mba i know is NO

Good

Where is he?

SensualMan1:
How dare u compare Ibadan to Oba?
Oba is miles ahead of Ibadan as a city and oyo as a state.

U should compare Ibadan to a village in Abia state next time.

fools everywhere

Boudiccao:
Ironically, Igbo civilization predate Yoruba civilization. Igbos are your elders!

older yet started wearing clothes in the 20th century

dejol88:
How have I brought ethnicity?

South West does not have worst federal road that is very untrue. I doubt you have ever left Abeokuta before.


I have never seen where northerners calling for good governance and fellow northerner will challenge him. Just imagine some suggesting for tax to be placed on a section of the country.

I have lived all around the SW

TMKsouth:
U should consider he's walking a tight political rope within his own party which is split in the middle among Zuma supporters and his own. So everything he does has to be a fine balancing act - things take twice as long to be achieved because of negotiations and opposition.

But this attempted coup is the final nail in the ANC coffin, it's definitely gonna split. Very soon the masterminds (including Zuma) will have to be prosecuted and Ramaphosa will gain full control of the ANC leaving Zuma supporters with no other option but to form their own party.

Then Ramaphosa will be able to implement all his promised reforms to kick-start the economy (the guy is one of the richest people in the country - he knows what needs to be done, corrupt incompetent Zuma faction has been sabotaging his efforts thus far).

well what do I know
Nigerian politics is complicated enough

dejol88:
Are you saying money is not made in South East for federal road to be neglected? If you juxtaposed number of fg roads between south west and south east roads , which region have the worst road?
Current state of the road you mentioned, is not better than this Onitsha Enugu road ?

Instead we should be calling FG to rise to their responsibility you bringing comparison.

Mind you this road has been bad for more than 10 years

You were trying to bring ethnic sentiment
I had to remove that

Forget that stuff
I live in Ogun State
SW has the worst federal roads

TMKsouth:
The reasons South Africans loot and burn things is historical - inherited from the struggle against apartheid where people wanted to render that regime ungovernable. It has unfortunately been carried over into democratic SA, especially now that the ANC has been corrupted and neglecting the poor.

The only time they respond to community grievances is when the people protest violently, so other communities replicate the behaviour because they see it works.

This time around the massive looting was exacerbated by the year-long lockdown, and just on Sunday the president had extended it again without much financial assistance for the poor outside what they normally receive. So these scenes were not surprising but nonetheless shocking and unprecedented.

Everyone is to blame for this, Zuma and his attempted coup was just the spark, but the conditions on the ground were fertile for a popular revolt after many years of neglect that began during his years in power.

That's just a little bit of context.

true
But this Ramaphosa guy seems incompetent to me
Like a playboy
A SA version of Trump

dejol88:
But there is money in construction of roads in other regions, abi.

stop this
Have you seen the Lagos-Abeokuta or Lagos-Ibadan roads? Where mad money is made?

heniford2:
is normal Ibadan is fine just like every city in southern states in Nigeria but on a serious Note Eastern states are on another level of development if I show you Enugu brother you will ask is this place in Nigeria..

It's because they smaller and have population density

EMMY76:
Mumu is not about the size can you campare small countries like Switzerland, Dubai and Singapore to ur big for nothing nigeria?

Bigger places are harder to develop
See Brazil Russia even US
