The real question should be, Is your father among the "achievers" in your tribe? Or your family's job is the gather names and sing praises.

Question goes to everybody

**grins** [s]Lol. When Olaudah Ikwuano was writing the first ever Black man's Biography in 1700s, the yorubas were still killing and eating themselves in kiriji. Even crowther the creole wasn't born then. **grins*[/s]*

Mckennedy:
Then how comes after yoruba man teaching them how to read & write, igbos over took and became the VC of UI & Lagos?

Orjioorji:

You must read the link I gave you...this is not time for lies and propaganda. I DEAL WITH FACTS...READ THE LINK BELOW. All top SW institutions had Igbo VCs after the whites left...Colonial whites handed every SW institutions to Igbos...they couldn't find any yoruba who could continue their scholarships. Just as they handed the military to Aguiyi Ironsi. THESE ARE FACTS...READ BELOW.

YoruBanger:
Poppycock! You all feasted on this thread, gunz blazing, hoping to have a field day talking shyt about the same region that is host to your armies of destitutes all over the SW region. You bold o, sitting there talking about SW people and poverty in the same sentence, compared to your nomadic ethnic group. Last time I checked, Igbo traders are in every nook and cranny of the SW region, selling their wares and coming in droves as economic migrants. We gave you all a market, bigger, more robust and better than anything you can match in your region. That is why we are your preferred destination anyday! Who are those buying from your traders? No be we Yorubas? Y'all invade our region coz you know we have the spending power and moola to buy your goods, without which y'all would be bankrupt! # FACT.

Go to the Agric section of this forum and see what young and energetic SW youths are doing in Agric, making more than your traders can only dream of. Just coz we don't make as much noise as y'all don't mean we're stupid. We're just silent achievers, that's all. Yinmu.

Olufemi Atoyebi, Ibadan The Ibadan Elders Forum on Tuesday mediated in the crisis between the Oyo State Governor, Abiola Ajimobi, and the Olubadan of Ibadanland, Oba Samuel Odulana, over the elevation of Senator Lekan Balogun, a former governor of the state, Rashidi Ladoja, and seven other Ibadan high chiefs. The IEF held a meeting at the house of its Chairman, Ambassador Olusola Saanu, on Tuesday evening at the end of which the matter was settled. At the end of the meeting, which was attended by Dr. Lekan Are, High Chief Adebayo Akande, and Ashipa Olubadan, Chief Eddy Oyewole, the governor said the matter had been resolved. Ajimobi added that the elevated high chiefs could retain their present status while the papers would be perfected to reflect due process. “We should thank God for the elders. Our elders are committed to peace in Ibadanland and our king has shown that he is a good monarch. He contributed to my success as governor. “In this case, brothers are fighting and elders have intervened. There is no cause for further misunderstanding. We will perfect the papers because the issue has been resolved by men of impeccable character. Due process will now take place. Sometimes, we get married before perfecting a marriage ceremony,” the governor told newsmen after the meeting. Others at the meeting included the Olubadan’s son, Prof. Femi Lana, and the Otun Olubadan, Senator Lekan Balogun. It will be recalled that the high chiefs had been elevated by the monarch but the state government described the action as illegal because it did not go through due process. The state government said the action was carried out by the Olubadan despite its directive that the high chiefs should submit their medical certificates of fitness before the monarch could elevate them. The matter reached a crisis point on Monday when the governor issued a 48-hour ultimatum to the organisers of the elevation ceremony to reverse it and maintain the former status of the affected high chiefs. A source who preferred anonymity had told our correspondent earlier on Tuesday that contrary to the insinuation that politics was beneath the whole issue, the government was only concerned that its directive was set aside before the elevation.
