Good to know this airport was named after that great literary bulldozer.


Also, I'm pleasantly surprised to learn that we might have indigenous Yorubas in Anambra.

Those who can't afford beer say that it is bitter. Do you honestly think that South East is not doing well in terms of economic viability? Or, you just want to destroy something because you envy it as all failures do?

In case you are ignorant, let me educate you a bit: South east is the only place in Nigeria where you have whole towns devoted to unique industries powered by local manpower from top to down. Think of Nnewi and Aba. If not for small Southeast, there would have been no indigenous automobile maker in this big country. And all these without government support and amid government oppression.

Some of you only try to see all these from the negative angles because of your dirty minds by saying that they are copying other people's products. But then, you go to China to buy products copied from the United States.

[size=14pt]Pan-Yoruba conference update: The Alaafin, Stakeholders’ pains[/size]
on NOVEMBER 20, 2011 · in INTERVIEW
     
By BASHIR ADEFAKA

The Yoruba nation is in search of unity amid concerns that a section of the people that matter in the in quest to move the race forward is being left out

The first pan-Yoruba conference, held at Ikenne,Ogun State, on Thursday, October 6, has come and gone but the fall-out from that supposedly first-of-its-kind meeting, aimed at charting the way forward for the Yoruba race, remains an issue.

The Alaafin of Oyo, Oba Lamidi Olayiwola Adeyemi, was conspicuously absent at the meeting which the Ooni of Ife, Oba Okunade Sijuwade, convened with the matriarch of the late Chief Obafemi Awolowo dynasty, Mama H.I.D. Awolowo and first elected governor of Lagos State, Alhaji Lateef Jakande, who were visibly seated on the high table.

Though the conference held, it couild not be said to be a total success due to what people like the Afenifere chieftain, Chief Ayo Adebanjo, and many of the traditional rulers present blamed on the Alaafin’s absence.


Oba Adeyemi, Alaafin of Oyo
“Without the Alaafin on seat,” Adebanjo said, “nothing can be said to have been done. Before we can say this meeting is a success, no Yoruba son must be left out.”

The Alaafin said that Yoruba race would not get anywhere so long as its leadership control was placed in the hands of sitting public officers or politicians, who, he said, had always ceased to function after their tenures of office and thus disappeared.

Former Military Governor of the defunct Western Region, Major General Adeyinka Adebayo, corroborated the Alaafin’s position in an interview with Sunday Vanguard during which the President of the Yoruba Council of Elders (YCE) said the Yoruba problem was not disunity per se but political.

The Alaafin said: “What I am saying is that the Yoruba should resuscitate its own pressure group to meet the challenges of national exigencies. To me, the institution of traditional rulership around should be an agency for uniting rather than dividing the political class, which is what the Obas are doing now.

“Do they want to say Yorubas in other political parties are not leaders in their own rights? What of other political office holders like Yoruba members of the National Assembly?”

It also disturbed the mind of the sole custodian of the customs and traditions of Oyo Empire that Yorubas were not utilizing their human resources well.

Chief Obafemi Awolowo became acceptable as Yoruba leader long after his time as premier of Western Region and that it was about that time or thereafter he was picked into the General Yakubu Gowon’s Federal Military Government as Federal Commissioner for Finance, where, seeing himself as representing the Yoruba at the Federal service, he caused his performance to beat the imagination of many people, nationally and internationally.

The Igbo, it was said, still remember Awolowo’s role in how they failed to secede into the Republic of Biafra. That was the typical Yoruba leadership being talked about and a return to that age in the race’s forward-match process, the Alaafin of Oyo said, would help in quick arrival.

“In the 1967 experience, the Obas worked assiduously in bringing all the warring political interests together, especially against the backdrop of the rancour between the Action Group and the NCNC. But what do we have today? Obas and governors alone charting a course for the Yoruba. We have to look beyond transient position holders,” said Alaafin before the October 6 Ikenne conference.

I somewhat disagree with you post even though l agree with the spirit of the post. Nigeria is a huge success because it fulfilled the purpose for which it was created. It was never created for success and benefit of its indigenes or hodgepodge of nations. It was created by Britain to serves her imperialist interest. Do you have a Facebook handle.

Caseless:
We don't even have a collective national resolve that we want to make progress or grow, there's only a national resolve to steal. The resolve is, those inside should steal their own now, and those outside are waiting for their own turn to get inside the system and steal their own, too.

When those inside are out, they begin to complain about what they failed to fix while they were there, and those outside before, who are now inside stop complaining about the systemic problem or ignore them completely because it's their own turn to steal and feel insulated from our general problems. You don't talk while eating.

When they're out, they begin to complain again and the "circle" continues. That's what you see Jonathan doing now. That's what we always do.

His Goat and Yam theory is the best way to fight corruption, i've come to realize - even though he was not really serious about fighting corruption.

We have the most selfish population in the world. People hurt the system for their own gains and it's the norm.

No nation grows operating like we do and something is fundamentally wrong with us as a people.

Can you tell us the tiny part of Lagos which was Federal capital.

ElSudani:
The question is legitimate. Why couldn't Iwuanyanwu focus more on developing Iboland?
The part of Lagos which was Federal Capital was tiny and the rest was under the Western region.
What is the Ibo obsession with Lagos?
Federal government did not build Ilupeju, Ikeja, Apapa industrial estates Western region did. Ibos came to take advantage of what was already on ground.
This is not a bad thing on its own but to suggest you built Lagos is nonsense and unnecessary provocation.

Kudos to the late sage for this very kind gesture. Only very few leaders would have done something as generous as this. Today, nobody talks about this good deed.

No matter our good deeds towards them, they will always pay back with hatred and envy.

Somewhat agree with you! SS are the biggest losers and useful political idiots.


Educhelssy:
U deserve your flowers, Apt! 👏👏👏👏
quote author=SoNature post=127375975]

The biggest beneficiaries of one Nigeria won't let that happen. To be clear, the biggest beneficiaries are the South West and Islamic North.

In the north, people are mostly agrarians. So, they don't directly benefit from the system. However, the the wealthy among them largely depend on politics and government appointments to get by. That's why they control a significant percentage of Niger Delta oil wells.

For the South West, Nigeria has made Lagos State one of the biggest economies in Africa. Now, the growth of Lagos is spilling over into neighbouring states, which is a win for the South West. When I saw Sunday Igboho calling for Oduduwa Republic, I just told myself that this one knows nothing.

Then, the Niger Delta states are the biggest losers. They feed the entire country and get nothing in return. If the resources of oil producing regions are left for them alone, they will be as rich as Qatar if properly managed. Oil-producing states are the reason Nigeria cannot be restructured because the fear is that they will be more powerful than the centre and that may lead to secession.

As for the South East, what the region has experienced is mostly being cut off from the centre and absence of federal presence. However, the region has also benefited from petrodollars. Although South East states have oil deposit, not as much as SS states. So, technically, the SE benefits from free money. To survive, Igbos are turning to education, sports, business/trades and travels. As for travel for greener pastures, that's why there's hardly anywhere you don't see an Igbo man.

Of course whenever the chieftains of northern oligarchy want anything done in the colonial contraption called Nigeria that will overwhelmingly fall within their socio-politico-economic interest, they have willing southern dancing partners to take the floor.

Whether it is the so-called One-Nigeria, quota system, Kaduna refinery or moving capital city to the northern region of Nigeria, there are insurmountable numbers of southern Nigerians ready to do the biddings for chieftains of northern oligarchy.

The blame of regressive Nigeria, manifested by actions of northern oligarchy, should partly hinge on the shoulders of moronic southern Nigerians.

yoruboid:
Just like Nigeria struggled to make Anambra what it is today

The first and second Niger bridges were built from our collective commonwealth. The Niger River as dredged by the FG and as such Anambra is no man’s land.

The thousands of kilometers of federal roads and bridges in the East were only made possible because of revenues from other regions because as it stands, only Lagos and Ogun can survive without FAAC allocations

Billions of Naira from the FG has gone into fighting erosion in Anambra, Enugu, Ebonyi and Imo. These are problems that no other region is responsible for but have had to fund.

If not for the FG, the East will have no idea what a rail system looks like as billions have been sunk into the eastern rail project

Nigeria has built Eastern Nigeria and as such everywhere in the SE is no man’s land and belongs to Nigeria
