Tell that to the Anambrans in the hands of The Ngiges.

We've never complained to you in Yorubaland, leave us. We prefer our type of godfatherism to that of Anambra

emkz:
Oyegun was docile. Under him, Saraki emerged Senate President and Dogara House Speaker. He was neither a reactive nor proactive leader.

Oshiomole was combative and reactive but never proactive. Under him, Saraki and Dino were kicked out of the Senate. But the party lost a lot of ground.

Neither of them can rescue APC. APC may not survive beyond Buhari's Presidency because Buhari and Tinubu are the rallying points holding that party. Towards the expiration of Buhari's tenure, the CPC bloc may want to decide who succeeds Buhari and would not trust Tinubu. Tinubu may take his men and leave.

Whose interest are they serving?

maasoap:
This shows a flaw in your thinking. Politicians govern you and determine various factors affecting your life, what does that make you to them? You are not smart if you haven't figured that out before

maasoap:
And so? Is he not the one giving you all sleepless night right now, chairman or no chairman?

Mylove55:
because oshomole stood by oyegun to finish his tenure before taken over from him

NGpatriot:
It's very hard to accurately respond to your post because it's muddled and unreadable. Even hard to see the point you are trying to make.

DCatt:
You are just allergic to truth and it's just going to keep you blind.

Ooni being oba is a product of Nigeria's politics, it has nothing to do with Yoruba tradition, even Ooni knows that he's just larping and prays people stay ignorant. Ooni's place is with the Orisa and not as Oba but as an attendant.

Infact back in the days, Aareonakakanfo was almost as powerful as Oba Alaafin and Ooni was distant 3rd after Areonakakanfo. Ask real and neutral historians who knew about Nigeria well before we became western Nigeria and they will tell you.

You and those that change Yoruba history by making an Orisa attendant to start acting like Oba and destroying the foundation are the problem facing Yorubaland.

Ile Ife under Oyo was the Yoruba religious headquarters when all Yoruba worshipped Orisa even Aareonakakanfo was based in another town

Yoruba tradition of old is what is guiding me and until Yoruba return to the way the ancestors arranged it, you will keep holding the short end of the stick.

Oyo has the complete Yoruba political system and that is why

1. Alaafin is the only one with palace,

2. Alaafin is the only one that can install generalissimos of Yoruba title like Areonakakanfo and other paramount Yoruba titles.

3. Alaafin is the only one with ALASE EKEJI ORISA praise, even my own very Oba Awujale who has been Oba before Ooni can't claim that praise, all other Obas burrowed it from Alaafin.

4. Alaafin is the only one who is also now an Orisa (Sango)

Ooni back in the days is the same as how most church goers see their pastors today. Back then Oso(wizards) were healers, infact they were what you call doctors today. That's where names like Soyinka, Soyemi, Sorinde and others came from. Ooni had the power of Adeboye and Dr. Carson combine and was revered but he still answered to his Oba which is Alaafin.

You guys need to let Yoruba tradition be so you can receive blessings of the land. You can see how the Orisas are tormenting Yorubaland right now and that's why anywhere you see chairs and tables, Ooni will be the 3rd item there as if he's part of event planners consignments, he's damn too cheap. Ooni needs to stop running around like someone with mental problem demanding respect everywhere from Eleko Oba Akiolu to Tinubu, respect will find him if he deserves it.

NGpatriot:
Who was their preference candidate and why did their preference candidate rejected??

You people sabi make up lies and rubbish sha.

DCatt:
First of all omo Eebo, most Yoruba know this and I have known this since I was 5 years old and I'm ijebu. When you talk to Cubans and Brazilians the king they know is Alaafin Oyo, it's now they are hearing about Ooni and that's because he travels a lot. They know Ooni as Orisa caretaker not king. I'm sure Awolowo did not do it with the purpose of what is happening right now. He probably thought it was just for a short time. Awolowo made Ooni governor of western region because they were both traditionalist and best friends and he didn't get along with Alaafin.

uruba23:
Jagaban influences his attainment to the throne....It is not necessarily disrespect...it is a different thing if it was in his palace...So you can call Jagaban the unofficial Baba Oba if that title exists...Abeg make you na leave Jagaban alone.

alBHAGDADI:
Fantastic....l love to learn, from your comment below I can see u are knowledgeable in the scripture
In conclusion Abraham paid the tithe after he returned from the war...
Sir this is my question, how many time did Abraham pay the tithe? After this I will now ask the second questions... Thanks

You people know nada, yet you pose like an authority on the Bible.

Look at how you are trying to rubbish Abraham's tithe by calling it spoils of war. Since when did spoils of war stop amounting to what you worked for? Or do you think fighting a battle is child's play?

Abraham fought and got the spoils of war. He gave God ten percent. He did that to acknowledge that he didn't win that battle himself but with the help of God. Or how else do you think Abraham and his 300 men conquered ten Kings and their armies?

It's the same thing as going to work and getting paid out of which you pay tithe to God because he's really the one that made it possible for you to have that job, not your might.

You don't understand the concept behind animal sacrifice. It was a picture of Jesus Christ the Holy Lamb. They sacrificed animals to pay for their sins in anticipation of when Jesus Christ will be sacrificed so that we will no longer rely on the blood of bulls and rams but on his blood as payment for our sins.

If Abel, Abraham and Jacob were alive today, they won't be sacrificing animals but relying on the one time sacrifice of Jesus.

Mind you, because the Bible never recorded that Abraham tithed again doesn't mean he never did. Or are we to conclude that Abraham never brushed his teeth or used the toilet because no such record exists?

Please just shut up because you know nothing. Shut up or God will punish you for posing as knowledgeable on top of your ignorance. My Frank advice.

Scream:
It is not...he doesn't have a place. That pastor has to do some asslicking to get the support of FG and other governors. Otherwise, he will be like an orphan on the election day. Lagos is not like Who...get that into your skull. Oshiomhole has goofed big time.

Jesusloveyou:
because oshomole is from Edo state and a national chairman of the party that produced both the governor and the house members,
so he has right to tell obaseki to do the right thing,
oshomole did same in bauchi when he told PDP governor to inaugurate the APC house members.

oshomole is not the only person that advice obaseki to do the right thing,
both national assembly, buhari and bisi Akande.
obaseki was proving stubborn, where is he today? he has lost his political career by joining PDP.

BabaO2:
NEC meeting to sack him as a member/an officer of of nwc?
NEC meeting to disanulle his annulled Edo primary screening/election?
Please wake up and go to school

tayebest:
Who do you think was the brain behind such brilliant moves? if it was very easy, Buhari would have won since 2003!

BabaO2:
It pained Giadom et Al ...I dey laff

tayebest:
Buhari doesn't know who he is trying politics with, lol. Someone who brought you to limelight after several trials.


Tinubu is just so wise than engaging himself with some sort of media rascality. Buhari on the other hand is so clueless for taking side in APC's rumble... Frankly speaking, is not only Tinubu that crown PMB as a president....is a collective effort....do u think only ACN or CPC or APGA can single handedly disthrone PDP....so is a combined effort from all major opposition parties then.....and they all enjoying it now......so let stop the idea of Tinubu make him Buhari the president....abeg

Bubu will be shamed today!

IlovePMB:
Is Oshomole from the north. Is Tinubu from the north that Ambode, a whole sitting governor cannot challenge. Sophisticated cowards. Nothing disgusts an Igbo man than public display of cowardice. Tufiakwa. Emere ya unu eme. See how they have reduced Osinbajo, a whole Prof and SAN to a mere toilet inspector. Abomination. Spits.

BERNIMOORE:
Shuiabu is a genius... Master strategist per exelence...

Jesusloveyou:
APC was already divided when they won ekiti and ondo.
In Edo, obaseki can not win his poling unit, ward, oredo, or Edo south senatorial zone.
While Edo north is already for oshomole.

TempleHouse:
You're a confused lad already,
You just only need to know there is only one APC .

omoiyamayor:
we see things from different angles bro,for me,if people can open there eyes,the administration is teaching people to understand what independence means and open their minds to ideas, the elites are the ones benefiting from Buhari policies,if you ask me why,i will say because people are looking for miracles or magic and are blinded to reality. Let us open our minds and stop expecting the likes of prophet Muhammad or Jesus to come lead the country because its not going to happen.
