If Bokoharam today endorses Obituary, you Zombies will stand with Boko haram. Omo, I have never seen people as foolish as Obituary supporters in this life.
In fact, no group of people on earth is as foolish as them I swear
Your party APC is analogous to Bokoharam, so you don't need to talk. Tinubu is close to his obituary, he can't even walk properly. He can't hold a flag. Stop deceiving yourself by tribalism. You no go gain anything.

I don't know why Nairaland is using Afenifere as a political advertorials for Peter Obi.

Firstly, it is a lie that Tinubu team fumes over Afenifere support of Peter Obi. No Yoruba ever expected Afenifere to support Tinubu. The Northern groups know Afenifere will never support Tinubu. Yoruba Council of Elders never expected Afenifere to support Tinubu. When the Atlantic Ocean was taking over VI what was the contribution of Afenifere to save VI, Lekki & Ajah from being submerged by Ocean encroachment? When the time spent from Ijebu Ode to Lagos was three or four times the hours spent to travel from Asaba or Port Harcourt to Ijebu Ode where was Afenifere?

Afenifere leadership during Jonathan era attacked Baba Bisi Akande because of Tinubu. They used Jonathan money to laundered the attack. On several pages of several newspapers they washed their dirty linens in the public without shame. They wrote the political history of baba Bisi Akande from Action group to UPN and to AD just to attack Tinubu because of Jonathan's money. I scanned the pages of the Newspapers for record purposes.

Yoruba Council of Elders has told the story of how Awolowo was betrayed by Azikiwe in the 50s. Pa Adebanjo has told the story of how Awolowo was stoned at Aba in the 50s. We witnessed the NPN alliance and the rejection of Abiola by the IBOS in 1993, the fall of South South Governors Forum meeting at Enugu in 2021.

The fact is that Afenifere or any group cannot dictate voters discretion in South West. South West is not IBO land where from time immemorial their discretion is if it is not IBO then nobody is good for it or the North where majority of people follow Arewa agenda. People said Tinubu brought money in Bullion vans for Presidential election, I told them, despite the money, the election result in South West is almost 50 : 50 between APC and PDP despite PDP not spending money in South West.

If Tinubu were to be an IBO, Ohaneze Ndigbo, all socio cultural organizations in IBO land and all over the world will support him. It is only Yorubas that destroys themselves. That is why late Chief Hubert Ogunde sang an historical music to awaken the consciousness of the Yorubas which he called " Yoruba Ronu".

The way you people lie in this forum hmmmm even Satan go fear. when was ever a time Ajah was threatened with Ocean encroachment?
you people should fear God oooo. This level of disinformation na wah oooo

Lastly, let me be clear sir. It is us against them. It is Nigeria against its enemies. It is yoruba against its enemies. Thank you.

Brother you have said it well, I share the same feeling about the manner our brothers attack every other tribes that is not on the same page with them.

But I look at it from 2 angles.
1. I think the major reason behind the lamentations and agitation is being marginalised, so of we failed as a nation to give them power, are we honestly not marginalizing them? Will there be peace?
2. I pray for this nation to be divided the marriage is no longer working, but none of these elite OJELU will either restructure or allow the Biafra to be and Yoruba will not stay with the Northerners.
3. Tinubu is our own but he has not being on the side of Yoruba when he ought to be. I understand he kept mum so as to be in the good book of the Northerners, is that not a slave? e.g. The killings by Fulani in Yorubaland that led to Sunday Igboho agitation for Yoruba nation, the founding of Amotekun etc.

Sir, let's look away from their misdeeds let's look at what we can gain as a nation. There is no perfect human being, but a better one. OBI is a better candidate at this period.

In Peace I come.

With all due respect in the world to Pa adebanjo, leader afenifere

Afenifere as a group is as insignificant as the letter 'p' in the word 'psychology' when talking about influencing the yorubas. So i guess they are just looking for mere cheap attention afterall, you will definitely get your 1-week fame. After that, the 'on your own' group 'afenifere' will crawl back inside the hole of insignifancy. Place befitting of a group that have vast history of never picking side with a winner before. Legendary bunch of losers.

Infact, nobody in the south-west gives a damn or heck about the Afenifere group opinion on political matters. Its opinion is personal to itself, and as such it's inconsequential, frivolous, inconsiderable, irrelevant, insignificant and minuscule.

May i remind, Pa. Adebanjo, with all due respect. That this same set of people wanting to rule Nigeria, invoke, instigate, abet and incite one of the greatest violence and destruction to ever hit one of the south-west region, Lagos state. They invaded our home, loot, burn, destroy our businesses in disguise of Endsarz revolution, even though if you can recall sir , that we openly accepted them in mass exodus into our region, we gave them suitable place to do business, sold them lands for houses... But all they could everly think of is to always bite the finger we use in feeding them repeatedly through deep hatred, insults, and going far as instigating us against eachother by using common words like Yoruba muslim,yoruba christians,Liberal yoruba muslim,northern slave yoruba muslim to divide us along religious line. They do this purely due to the hate they abhour towards us.


Sir, with due respect. I will never ever be part or party to any group of people, or be use as a tool that will bring onboard one of these children of hate that called this our beloved country which the yoruba is also an integral part a 'Zoo' .

People that refers to the yorubas as the 'Northerner slaves' and have never ever wish for the growth or stability of the yoruba region in general.

Infact let me be clear sir that if it is Peter obi only on the ballot, i as a person will rather not vote atall. I dont have a vote to waste on a chief tribal bigot disguising as a friend of the yoruba region just to actualise whatever desperate ambition he is chasing. Because if you can recall sir, this same man peter obi pulled a charade not long ago, when he acted like he was reading from a whatssap message supposedly sent by someone from a yoruba group according to him. You can recall vividly well without being sentimental that the only motive of reading that message was to cause an uproar and tribal tension between the yorubas and the igbos. A sheep doesnt change its clothe. So does an average yiibo person. They are all the same. Different person, same tribalistic soul. Nothing less, nothing more

Lastly, let me be clear sir. It is us against them. It is Nigeria against its enemies. It is yoruba against its enemies. Thank you.

Remi Tinubu and Afenifere are both Yoruba. When Remi said something Igbos didn't like, Igbos said Yorubas hate them.

But now you've forgotten how "Yorubas hate you" because Afenifere supports Peter Obi.

Keep the same energy.

We know who the dunce is here. Being a Yoruba does not automatically make you Afenifere.
Or you think this is your household where you claim to be smarter than everyone else? Afenifere has always maintained and championed the right course ever since we know them? How evil will it be to compare the pious Afenifere with Remi who openly called Omoluabi children beggars? You need to recheck yourself to understand your bearing and that is if you have any

Differing views is acceptable in the spirit of national inclusion and unification. This is history being laid down and reference to it in future has the potential to further solidify the unity of the south.

This is why Yorùbás can gladly beat their chest that Nigerian history is replete with their fight for justice, fairness and entrenchment of democracy for Nigerians. MKO, Kudirat sacrificed their lives for it. Gani Fawehinmi, the lawyer and human right activist, was a torn in the flesh of Abacha military junta. Tinubu, Wọlé Soyinka used Radio Kudirat to fight off the military junta. Wọlé Soyinka and Fálànà et Al fought to make sure that the doctrine of necessity required to swear in the vice president (who was being oprresed by the cabal then) when there is an ailing or incapacitated president is effected, something which effectively brought in Jonathan, a non-Yoruba, as the de factor president. It is the same Soyinka and with Bakare et al that condemned GEJ when he began failing in his duties towards Nigerians who voted him in. Please note that at this time, Soyinka and Bakare and indeed every other southerners who called out GEJ for his ineptitude at that time automatically became the object of derision and abuse for every Igbos that cared to express blind support for GEJ. Of those that condemned GEJ, the Yorùbás were called jealous, and the Ijaws/few Igbos were called bastards. Even the Ijaws (GEJ's south south people) were no match for the Igbos in the defence of their brother whom the Igbos already believed was an acceptable representation of south Eastern Nigeria in governance.

All these are to one end - justice, fairness and equity for the oppressed.

In Yorùbá, the elder is expected to be fair to all parties. A saying goes that "a newly born infant should not have a distorted head in the presence of an elderly person in the market place".

What I am however unsure of is if the Ndigbo will have done the same if roles were reversed and I have valid reasons. Some are as follows:

¶ The unnatural tagging of Lagos as no man's land when it is obvious that Calabar and Lokoja were once the nation's capital and yet not tagged such anathema by the Yorùbás. Even the audacity to tag Abuja the current capital city as no man's land cannot be mustered by any one.

¶ The mocking, though positive tag of the Yorubas as "accommodators" and the unnatural opportunism to use such to cause roforofo issues. Meanwhile such accommodative reception cannot be said to be offered to the accommodators when roles are reversed. Note that the back and forth of this particular name calling, when it was finally an acceptable norm among some Igbos, was what led to the eventual coinage of similar word by the Yorubas to counter the Igbos - the word "developers", which is meant as a derogatory term but a positive truth nonetheless.

¶ The deliberate and diabolical distortion of history to paint the liberal south west as the villain when it comes to narrating history, deliberately leaving out the good and gallant actions which are interjections of history by the Yorùbás, actions aimed towards fostering national unity, avoiding vendetta and entrenching togetherliness amongst folks in Southern Nigeria. Meanwhile the narrators paint themselves as the saint and the victimized at every turn of the narrations.

One example is the protection and caretaking of properties in the south west that belonged to fleeing Igbos during the unfortunate civil war and the subsequent return of those properties to the rightful owners when they returned after the war. This includes the rent accrued during the time of their absence.

Another example is the courageous death of colonel Fajuyi. Aguiyi Ironsi (from the south East) was his guest when the coup plotters from Northern Nigeria meant to assassinate him in Ibadan, the then capital city of the old western region. Colonel Fajuyi knowing that such has the tendency of negatively affecting history forever in southern Nigeria maintained that he will not allow them to assassinate Aguiyi Ironsi as it will give the impression of complicity of the Yorùbás particular at a time when the integrity of the thread of national unity was been threatened. He said they will have to go thru him first, and indeed they did.

They killed him (Fajuyi), then went inside to assassinate Aguiyi Ironsi.

I can go on and on.

The elders and honest leaders of South Eastern Igbos know all these history and some of them try as much as possible to tell the truth if it. Unfortunately their voices are being drowned out by the majority emotional and restless youths of today who believe that their hitherto friend has always been their arch enemy. They strongly hold believe these false narratives and therefore enact all their unwholesome attitude along these false storyline and further widen that gorge of disagreement between the two major owners of Southern Nigeria.

The disadvantage of these is that thes current youth pass these false narratives down to their offspring who also swallow such hook line and sinker. The same reasons why history was abolished from the Nigerian school curriculum is the same reason why these ones will refuse to make due diligence for private study to learn and prevent an enemy to tell their own history for them.



I highly doubt that you are. No Yoruba holds Awolowo with little regard, if for anything at all his drive towards free education and development of the Southern Region which many of our fathers enjoyed in those days.

He may not be perfect across board, but unlike the politicians of today, he had genuine and selfless plans towards development of the Yorùbás who owned the south west.

He established OBAFEMI Awolowo University, but against all "reasoning" of today politicians, refused to have it established in his home state of Ogun, but put it in Ile-Ife, the ancestral home and origin of the Yorùbás.

He was not overtly rich at death. He was modestly wealthy unlike our politicians of today who will steal their people blind while leaving them in penury and poverty.

You disregard him, but the British fear him because of his intelligence. They feared his collaboration with Enahoro who was equally brilliant and so they (Britain) blackmailed Nnamdi Azikiwe to back-stab the Yorùbás I order for the Northern oligarchy, which the brit saw as loyal to them, to clinch the prime ministerial position.

If your axe to grind is with Tinubu, I may not really have much to say in his defence because of his many fallacies even though he has his good parts too, but saying Awolowo is not a hero to a Yoruba makes me to doubt your ancestral claim.

Please history is there for us to learn from and plot our future.
Thank you sir.

Yes sir, they might have been in this world before me. My dad has been in this world before me ofcourse, but there are things i know, that he might never know...

Let me tell you something, to an average yoruba person, take away accusation of tribalism asides. This election is more than just an election.. It is a fight for right and wrong.

Just look at the charade obi pulls few weeks back where he was reading from a whatsap message, those deaming words he read out. Dont he have sense? Is that how an elder state person or respectable person behaves? If not that a sheep never changes its skin. So does an average igbos can never changes their altitude. Very tribalistic set of humans.

Stop trying to join us together because you have something to get from us... You hate us! You envy us! We know it, you know it!
Nobody is above mistake. A prisoner hardly knows those who are fighting to release him.
