This is happening now!! Below is the normal and usual life of an average yoroobaman. Like Obj like Shoyinka like Akala like Tinubu like the criminal fashola. ![]() ![]() [b] A 45-year-old man, Alabi Bakare, has been docked before an Ikeja Magistrate Court, Lagos, for allegedly having carnal knowledge of a five-year-old girl. Bakare, who was accused of assaulting the child (name withheld), a commercial motorcycle operator, is married with two wives. The defendant, who is a neighbour of the victim’s parents, is facing a one-count charge of having unlawful sexual intercourse with the minor. The Police prosecutor, Mr Barth Nwaokoye, told the court that Bakare had allegedly had sex with two other girls, who are minors and whose names were simply given as Jumoke, aged four and Azeezat aged, eight, before he was recently arrested. Nwaokoye, said that the man committed the offence on August 3, 2012, at Oluwakemi Street, Alapere, Ketu. The prosecutor alleged that Bakare, has been sexually assaulting little children over time before he was finally caught. The prosecutor added that it was one Mr Kehinde Ogundare of the same address, who caught him having sexual intercourse with the little child and reported the case. Nwaokoye said that Bakare as an Okada rider and as a neighbour to the victim, was the one that usually takes them to school every day, adding that the defendant had access to the children as a result of the familiarity he had with them as their driver and as a neighbour. The offence is punishable under section 137 of the Lagos State Criminal Laws Vol. 44 No. 11 of 2011. [/b] http://www.vanguardngr.com/2012/08/man-docked-for-defiling-5-yr-old/ |

It is the deception and avarice of the Ibos (Igbo) that brought both Nigeria and Igbo nation to where they are today. Ezeogu Kaduna killed all the Hausa leaders including Adekunle Fajuyi , a faithful Yoruba man just to satisfy their self aggradizement leaving Okpara, Azikwe, etc to enjoy.They appointed only Ibos on the wealth of the nation and was commanding as if they were wiser than the rest. They started a war they could not finish and unfortunately desired to occupy Nigeria where the sagacious and intelligent Yorubas were. This is what arrogance, unnecessary ego and avarice caused for them- Death, debt, pain and evalasting regrets. IBOSSSS wake up and be wise. For Kwara- Yoruba elder then (Afonja) used the Fulani(from Sokoto Caliphate) to fight war in Ilorin and promised them to occupy there like his vangaurd while his people live as the occupants so it was not a conquest but an agreement ab initio. You can only see few Fulani in Ilorin but not in any other part of Kwara eg Offa, Oro, Igbomina part, etc. Pls research before you talk. 3 Likes |

Femi Fani-Kayode is a true son of his father. His father, aka, ''Fani Power'' was also a traitor and bastard . He was in the league of those Yoruba twits that created political problems for Awo and Yorubaland. The likes of Chief Adisa Oja'gbo, Chief Adelabu Penkelemesi, Chief Mojeed Agbaje, ''Fani Power,'' Chief Adisa Akinloye, Chief Richard Akinjide, and Olusegun Obasanjo were in their own individual capacity enemies to the Yoruba people in general and Awolowo in particular. So, brave Yoruba sons and daughters, don't be surprised if you see people like Femi trying to discredit Awo's good work and name. 2 Likes |

[quote author=Katsumoto]The problem with some Igbo sons is that they believe they are smarter than others. Zik reneged on several agreements with Awo pre-independence, Zik was part of the government that jailed Awo, yet Awo should have supported Biafra. It is important to contextualize Awo’s actions before and during the Civil war. To do so accurately, one must scrutinize the actions of all parties pre-Independence, post-Independence, and pre-Civil war. In 1957, the Governor-General, Sir James Robertson, gave the three regions the choice of self-autonomy and independence but it had to be a majority decision. Awo voted for independence for the Western Region, Ahmadu Bello said the North wasn't ready for self-governance and would prefer to remain under British rule. Zik voted to put off Independence for the Eastern region, preferring to wait for the North to be ready. Zik had the choice of a country for the Eastern region but he wanted Nigeria at all cost. Similarly, at the same constitutional conference in London, Awo wanted a secession clause inserted into the constitution but Zik and Bello refused. Guess who would later want secession. Now fast forward to the general election in 1959. The North won the most seats in the house. Awo offered to join a coalition with Zik, with Zik as Prime Minister (the PM had the real power) but Zik preferred to form a coalition with the North and accepted a redundant position as Governor-General with no real powers. When Zik aligned with the North in 1959, guess who got most of the ministerial and administrative positions allocated to the South? Yes, you guessed it, the Igbos. The Yorubas and other Groups were left on the sidelines until Akintola broke away from the AG with the help of who? Zik and Okpara who thought that Akintola would defect to their party but played a fast one by preferring to form his own party and aligning with the North. Now when the situation of the Igbo changed with Akintola joining Balewa's government with positions held by Igbo now going to Akintola's supporters, what do you think happened next? Coup by Igbo officers. In 1962, there were problems in the Western Region between Awo and Akintola who both belonged to the Action Group. Akintola was sacked but due to actions of NCNC (Zik's Party) members, the removal of Akintola wasn't effected. Balewa and Zik imposed a state of emergency on the West because of chair throwing in the Western House yet there were no states of emergency in the North and East for far more violent actions on the streets there (the TIV crisis and the Okrika riots). Awo was subsequently jailed on trumped up charges. Now after the imprisonment of Awo, Zik thought that his party NCNC would take control of the Western region but Akintola decided to form his own party (NNDP) rather than join the NCNC. In the elections of December 1964, NNDP took control of the Western region. The NCNC cried that elections were rigged. According to Fazil Ope-Agbe (Akintola's right hand man), the ensuing mayhem in the West was sponsored by Okpara and Zik. With the AG in retreat, NCNC calculated that if Akintola's party fell apart, the NCNC would be in a position to pick the pieces. This is not far-fetched considering Zik's antecedents in the West. With Akintola holding firm, NCNC didn't gain the advantage it sought. One year later, a group of officers who were predominantly Igbo, executed a coup that eliminated leading politicians and officers from the North and West. Despite the murder of these Northern and Western leaders, the Northerners, who were senior partners in the coalition with the East, picked another leader, Dipcharima, to replace Balewa. The East, even though it was the junior partner, had selected Madiwe. When the North refused to budge to this proposal, Nwafor Orizu, chose to handover to Aguiyi-Ironsi another Igbo man and in the process, Nigeria’s nascent democracy was truncated. Awo was imprisoned on trumped up charges by the Balewa/Zik government and thrown in prison. Awo wrote to Ironsi in March 1966 requesting to be released from prison but was obviously ignored. Awo would later be released from prison by Gowon and driven home in Murtala Mohamed’s car. Despite his time in prison and his political difficulties with Zik/okpara, Awo would assume the role of a statesman and try to find a solution to the impasse between the North and the East. That speech by Awo to the Western regional house was a very noble one. Awo would also travel to Enugu to advise Ojukwu against armed conflict. So putting all these into consideration, would any sane person expect Awo to simply just follow the East in a secession bid? Awo's loyalty was to his people. He did what he felt was best for his people concerning the circumstances. Despite all that, Awo advised Ojukwu not to go to war. When Awo offered to organise a meeting with Northern officers, Ojukwu replied, 'On the specific question of whether ther bless u man. 1 Like |

Farouk is just saying the mind of the average northern elite. Awolowo made a very great mistake by not supporting the south-east during the Biafran war. It was a just cause which he should have supported but because he wanted to be president pandered to the whims of the northern oligarchs and here we are today. The fact remains that we are living a lie in this country. Nigeria is a mirage and the earlier we go our separate ways, the better. Now, not even a sovereign national conference can save Nigeria.

If u are a Yoruba, then something is wrong with u just like Omolewa or whatever the name is, what mistake did Awo make. Do u see the Ibos as human beings or bunch of thieves and deceptive people. If they have a shop next to u, all they think of is how to send u away and occupy that shop. Awo did the right thing. The war was just to achieve Ojukwu's aim. If he truly wanted Biafra and not his own selfish target, let us view the following together: 1. Why did he run away, 2. Why did he beg and return to his vomit, same Nigeria he had vowed to seceed from, 3. Why did he contest twice to become the president of Nigeria; etc. The young ibos talking now are unwise, they need to seek knowledge, knowing the cause of Nigerian problem.
