Nawa, seems even the southerners are now also getting clueless even with our education. How can the Fulani settle down across the states of the south and muster 25% population voting strength within 4years? Is that how population grow at a faster pace. This Henry Shield should be given a knock on his head. The gullibles just keep saying “I know” “I know”. Nigeria nawa o 1 Like 1 Share |

Politics / Re: Abia Secondary School Teachers Were Last Paid Salaries October 2018 – NLC by YorubaHero12: 7:23pm On Aug 10, 2019 |
Tinubu embezzled all the money meant for the payment of salaries in Abia state. Had it been there is no godfather in Abia state, the Governor would have paid all the teacher salaries and even given them bonuses. APC is a devilish party that owe salaries. If we had a PDP Governor in Abia state, he would have bought brand new Innoson cars for each of the teachers. Also, the Abians don’t care since this is not happening in Osun state. 111 Likes 13 Shares |

Rekhina: Firstly, Tinubu will not contest coz he won’t even win overwhelmingly in the Southwest. Secondly, the Yoruba don’t really need the Igbos vote to become the president, that’s a fact! Igbos are generally PDP, they won’t vote APC even if your son is on the ballot so no need of seeking votes in the SE. I repeat, the Yorubas don’t need the SE vote especially if we can bring out someone that is generally acceptable in the SW that can get the block vote. Then we form an alliance with the north by picking a strong Vice President that’s generally acceptable. If the Yorubas can’t challenge the north and always behave like the Igbos that feel defeated even before starting a fight (in case of presidency), then this nation would have been ruled forever by just the north. You are spoilers but APC should be wise enough to woo the core north and middle belt instead of concentrating on the SE. |

Bede2u: To be honest, it’ll be hard to muster the vote number to displace the north by the south. The configuration of Nigeria does not favor the south, hence the north will always be the kingmakers in Nigeria so far we maintain this form of democracy. We need a strong southerner to become the president, someone brave enough to challenge the current Fulani domination on Federal parastatals and all arm of government. The north wield so much power due to their population and they have their men in strategic places so it’ll be hard for any southerner to become president without the consent of the North. To break up Nigeria is not that easy and my fear is that the politicians across both divide will sabotage it coz a fractured Nigeria will limit the bandwidth of how much they can loot and plunder. The elite politicians are the main people destroying this country either Yoruba, Igbo, or Hausa. They become saviors while out of power but becomes tyrant while in power. We are all just pawn in their game of chess. I’m sure a southerner will be the president in 2023, coz the north knows its dangerous for the stability of Nigeria for them to extend power more than 8years in a row. 4 Likes 2 Shares |

Bede2u: Thanks for responding in a civil manner bro. Firstly, Yorubas supported Jonathan en mass after the death of Yaradua when he was still an acting president. Remember the likes of Soyinka, SNG, Gbajabiamilas, even Sahara Reporters with the constant awareness on the need for Jonathan to assume the presidency seat. Forward to 2011, we voted for him over the ACN candidate, infact I can still remember that most people in my area that gave birth to new babies then named their children Goodluck coz of the love we had for Jonathan. Osun was the only state that ACN won in the SW in 2011 and that was due to the Aregbesola factor because the people loved Aregbe so much that they thumb ACN from top to bottom on the ballot. Let’s be factual bro, Jonathan squandered the goodwill and he wasn’t strong enough as a president to checkmate his comrades coz they all looted without conscience. Boko haram menace in the NE coupled with the chibok girl kidnap is among the many sins of Jonathan. Let’s imagine, there is constant bombing in the SE and SW, and people are dying daily due to terrorist attacks and the terrorist already captured 12 local governments, in all sincerity will you vote for Jonathan again?? It’s justified to vote Jonathan out in 2015, as the mantra was anybody but Jonathan. Forward to 2019, honestly I regret that the Yoruba voted for Buhari again, although the results are close coz atiku won 2 states in the SW, but with the ineptitude of Buhari he shouldn’t have been re-elected. But honestly Atiku wasn’t an option too, they are both bird of a feather and that’s what made people feel divided on who to really vote for. Let’s be honest, each region is trying as much to become relevant and we are all just been hypocrites coz even with the 16years of PDP misrule, the Igbos made sure they vote PDP in majority whether they perform or not. The Yoruba in the same hypocrisy does the same in with Buhari because we thought our interest will be protected in APC. About the Yorubas and Igbos constant animosity towards one another, I really don’t know what went wrong coz we’ve coexisted in peace without any killings of any sort among eachother in our history, it’s just an innate competition to best eachother and to brag over each others achievement. To be honest I’m not sure there can be peace between the Yorubas and Igbos anytime soon coz the hatred has percolated through the main fabrics of our existence, both young and old hold some grudges against one another across both tribes, and the hate is mutual. Politically, we have different ideologies, and we express our grievances in different way. While some perceive the other’s expression as cowardice, the other view the expression as chestbeating. It’s a clash between two ideological mindset. Only God can bring peace among us. Peace bro! 4 Likes 1 Share |

highcollide: This is not true, the Igbos trusted PDP throughout the 16years rule, you guys only started hating on the Fulani the moment Buhari was voted in 2015. That’s a fact. Religion is not the problem here, the people are the problem. In all sincerity, have you even seen a Yoruba man kill on the basis of Islam? The earlier you guys start separating religion from ethnicity the better. The fulanis are some kind of vengeful, savages, and have no regard for human lives. These attributes has nothing to do with Islam, it’s mainly a mirror of their culture. Yorubas are Muslim first even before the fulani, Islam got here through the mali people and Dan Fodio came after several years to propagate the religion in Nigeria. 5 Likes 1 Share |

The Abia teachers don’t care so far it’s not in Osun or SW. The Governor was voted almost unopposed coz of the overwhelming vote he got, hence Abia teachers are happy with the non-payment of their salaries. Their kinsmen will start blaming Tinubu now. Just check the comments. 13 Likes 2 Shares |

Validated: The Jagaban of Borgu won’t contest for the presidency seat, coz if he does he won’t even win the south west with a majority. Atiku will be 76 in 2023, I thought you guys are clamoring for Kwakwanso instead. Both Atiku, Kwakwanso, or any more of you Igbo slave master will be defeated with the ballot.

Why are the Yorubas on here even disturbing themselves with the Ijaw slaves. The Igbos are a conquered tribe in Nigeria, they are the useful slaves to the north and they dare not contest for the presidency position! Even for the 16years of PDP, the party knows they are unsellable which made OBJ gave Jonathan the Vice President instead of an Igbo man. They will go for the north as usual and they will be thrashed through the ballot. The north are not that tribalistic as they made us believe coz Jonathan won some states in the north even in 2011. The Igbos are bereft of insight, coz if they can think well they will know that both PDP and APC will field a northern candidate in 2023. The north knows the country is already polarized and they won’t want to alter the balance of the union. Even if they present Kwakwanso, his invisibility is a myth even in Kano, we have Ganduje and Shekarau to deal with him while El Rufai man Kaduna. Buhari will be the voice in Katsina provided everything is alright by then. Infact, if I were APC, I will field in Fashola and El-Rufai, the SE and SS will not vote any Yoruba man even if he’s a Christian, so we should stop trying to even be politically correct. The North knows Fashola ain’t Tinubu stooge, coupled with the fact that he’s already made and also a Muslim. In the SW, religion is not much of a factor, APC needs to sweep all the SW vote first before even gunning for the north. 3 Likes 2 Shares |

splendour7: Really busy with work and let me respond fast. Firstly, it’s on record that after the Biafran war, the Yorubas are the only tribe that gave the Igbos back their properties en mass, infact my grand dad told us how some of the house rent were given back to them when the Igbos came back. You can dispute this but there are numerous examples to back the claim. Secondly, Yoruba through the ages gave every tribe a sense of belonging, in which you can do what you like without any form of discrimination , while this is not only peculiar to the Igbos, it’s mostly for all other tribes. Yoruba man in Soyinka was jailed when he spoke on Biafran war, which sometimes showed that the Yoruba are all not an enemy of Ndi’Igbo even during their trying times. Over the history of the Igbos in Yoruba land, there hasn’t been an instance of mass killing or ethnic cleansing amongst the two tribe. Although this is reciprocal coz Igbos too never killed Yorubas before. What I don’t understand is the source of the hatred among the two tribes, whether it is ego, competition, or just bragging right . I don’t have answer to that yet. I know if I keep arguing with the Igbo folks on here, this thread will keep going on and we will never reach a logical conclusion that was why I chose to stop responding coz it’s jist like going about in circles. Now directing the question back to you, in what way has/have the Igbos helped the Yorubas in Nigeria? 4 Likes 1 Share |

BaaleOko: I can understand what you meant bro by your analogy. Although something is not yet clear coz by your assertion you only frown at the fact that the Yorubas in your workplace speak their language to eachother and sometimes abuse other people in local dialect right? Is that your argument! On the second point, it’s a fallacy of hasty generalization to say the Yorubas are mostly kiss and tell while the Igbos are the reserved people in that context. Try to understand the connection first, Yoruba guys only date Igbo people Caz of the influx of the Igbo people in the SW and that does not show whether Igbos are seen as a medal or not, it’s just human nature. Infact there are lot of Igbos with lost identities in the SW such that iou may not even know they are Igbos expect maybe they bear their native name. If it had been that the literate Hausas settle in the Southwest in that magnitude also, it would have been the same scenario. The Yoruba demon phenomenon is just for a bragging right and sometimes it’s more of a praise than an insult. Although that cannot be denied sometimes, I think the effect is due to youthful exuberance’s and it’s nothing of great importance to discuss about. 7 Likes 1 Share |

Osagyefo98: In a country like USA where free will is enshrined in their ideologies, no policy can bar an individual from communicating with one another in the workplace so far they don’t communicate with clients with that. And to be honest, the Yorubas in the company will not be daft such that they will be talking to other nationals or clients in native Yoruba language. This is what I tried making him to see.

Ikenna0b: At least you took to correction for writing in paragraphs now let me reply you even if you never quoted me! You lot always use the English language to suit your narratives, sometimes you call the Yorubas cowards while sometimes you say we have a domineering mindset. With respect to Oyo empire, the ideology then is about expansion and that is mainly due to the civilization at that age and time. Kingdoms must expand to show their dominance and the military might. The Igbos then don’t even have a coordinated military and are majorly uncivilized to even wage an expansion. We’ve heard of several empires like the British, Greeks, ottoman, although the Oyo empire might not be strong like these but they tried in their aspect. To the second point, it was actually Azikiwe that formed a coalition with the north at the expense of the south, he should rather be termed betrayer rather than Awolowo. Infact Awolowo had to fight with Akintola when he tried forming alliance with the north coz he knows what the northerners are capable of. I bet you don’t know this!! Several Yorubas fought against the cabals when Jonathan was acting President to make him president and we also supported him in the majority in 2011 elections. Even Tinubu supported Jonathan even with the fact that the SW is ACN at that time. What did Jonathan use as a payback, he marginalized the Yorubas by listening to the Igbos. Yorubas waited patiently till 2015 and removed him with the ballot. That’s what they call superiority, we don’t go about shouting or wailing, we simply restraint ourselves and make our voice heard through the ballot. Well on the Buhari aspect, it’s a manifestation of the decadence of Nigeria political office holders, they are all the same. Buhari also turned out to be clueless but the decision to get him elected in 2015 was justified coz of the incessant killing by Boko Haram in the NE and the Chibok girls palaver. The mighty Yoruba tribe has shown some form of intellectual superiority over other tribes in a nigeria and that is a fact. We have learnt to live as human being and not savages which explains the reason why the SW is the safest place in Nigeria and with the height tolerance of both religion and ethnicity. 10 Likes 2 Shares |

They all speak Hindi at the workplace and even the Americans already accepted them the way they can. This is a truth that cannot be denied! Go to Visa, Apple, Intel, Infosys, SAP, Microsoft, IBM e.t.c, the Indians dominate and they most time speak their language in the midst of other colleagues. The Yorubas are people with proud culture and always make sure they speak their language especially when they are around their own. Sometimes I drive 1hr 30minutes to my friends place just because I want to speak Yoruba for you to know how deep we are into the language. I actually doubt your postulation that a US agency will ask people to not speak their language because the USA ideology is based on tolerance and free will. Also, what is bad in the Yoruba speaking their language among themselves? Did they communicate with other nationals in Yoruba or what exactly is the problem here ? Actually the Igbos are the one that envy and have the mindset of comparison with their fellow Nigerian anywhere they are. 12 Likes 3 Shares |

Infact, it shows the level of respect the government had for Awolowo to even give him the highest honor of GCFR even without being a president. He was even on the Nigerian currency note (#100) before they deem it fit to put Azikwe who was a former president.
