Who takes Yoruba serious?
At the mention of Biafra, IPOB, Nnamdi Kanu even Oduduwa your progenitor will be wailing in nairaland.
Yoruba and Igbo are not mate in Sovereignty Nation matter.
You can only compete with Kanuri Nation.

Typical idiocy of the average Igbo on display here. Go and do something productive with your time. You're a kid mentally. Read your own response, below, I responded to and tell me if you are not the fool I call you.

It is only an Igbo man, in every sensible discussion all stakeholders can temporarily sheath sword over in support of the greater good, who remains a hateful idiot and big fool.

You are not talking your irresponsible and callous elected leaders in ala Igbo to do more yet you remain obsessed with insulting and shading Yorubas. Of course you are a fool. A hateful one too. Same as most of your kinsmen.


Igbodicool:
No way!

Even if every other tribe leaves, the hypocritical and nepotistic Yoruba will remain in Nigeria till eternity.
Trust a Yoruba man at your own peril.
No be only Yoruba Nation but emi lo kan candidate.

I think so too. At the end of the day, issues boil down to the readiness of us all to put ego, traditional thinking, historical hatred and entrenched beliefs aside to note what is our greatest existential threat today and what we need to do to defeat this threats that is external so we can survive to thrive

Yes SW, SS and SE can be disdainful and suspicious of each other but very important to note the need to now work together for mutual benefits in present day Nigeria.

Very true. We have to work together otherwise, the zones might turn to refugee camps due to insecurity.

Mumu. Yorubas are not two-faced, patently greedy and covetous as Igbos are. That is why, even with our flaws, we still enjoy a good reputation universally.

You're foaming at the mouth against Yorubas about "sovereign nation" yet you do not see that the silence of Igbos about Biafra currently, now that you're all 'Obidient', is powerful proof you people are the most insincere, most two-faced and most covetously greedy Nigerian ethnic group to exist.

Your historical pretence of wanting a sovereign Nation is again exposed as nothing but fake noise you think you can use to disguise the reality of how you remain obsessed with controlling all Nigerians and the wealth in their historical land of origin.

The despicable and two-faced Ojukwu, who would later contest to lead Nigeria, went to war pretending he wanted secession for Biafra when the reality was that he only wanted to be in control of Niger Delta/SS oil wealth everyone realized back then was potentially stupendous.

You always want to control Nigeria at the centre and you also wish to go to every corner of Nigeria to have a free run of the 'manor' whether in politics, business or industry.

When that is not possible , because you cannot gain the Presidency to control Nigeria at the centre, or you cannot dominate others in their States and region, as is the case with Lagos and the SW, you begin your divisive and fake agitation for Biafra.

Where is your Biafra noise today? Is Prof.Akintoye not writing Buhari about Oduduwa Republic at a time Tinubu , his kinsman, stands a chance of becoming President if Nigeria?

What of the SW governors from APC who are part of the centre yet demanding to leave it, as seen below, while your wretched leaders continue to prop up 'one Nigeria' as currently constituted? Bro, you are a fool and a disgrace. Only primordial hate of others does not allow you to see that.

This is the bottom line. Nigerians don't even have to like each other. Folks from Houston may resent New York peeps. Liverpudlians may despise Londoners.

Still, they can all build progressive lives away from each other in semi-independent space.

We should all seek the same for Nigeria if sure of our capability to lead ourselves progressively from our respective regional base.

I am 1000% sure Yorubas are ready for it and willing to commit all resources and effort towards it. What is obvious is that Nigeria must adapt or die.

Every responsible adult should acknowledge that reality and support what will help us gain a new structure that will serve Nigerians better or we win continue to die, starve and be deprived.

100% correct. You are ideologically sound. Indeed we should not seek to agree on everything but security of life and property is sacrosanct in any society and the cornerstone of societal progress and success.

Should we all continue to die and remain at risk in our own land because of 'one Nigeria'?

Let's fight to achieve the right to be our own security provider and gaurdians. It is ridiculous Malians, Togolese, Sudanese, Beninois etal can just breach our borders to waste Nigerians cheaply because we have an overpowerful Presidency that can be hijacked unpatriotically by the private agenda and allegiance of one man.

This is why I am an unrepentant and unapologetic fan of regional governance. Yes I spam the forum with the image below but I am trying to promote, in my own little way, the awareness in well-meaning Nigerians that we must all work for more independence over our own lives and destinies rather than continue to indulge a Presidency that is very strong and can be hijacked malevolently as it appears has happened with Buhari

Let's all work to free ourselves from the 'one Nigeria' bondage first, through regional governance, and we can take care of other issues later. Without life on earth, nothing else is more important or worth it as far as human beings are concerned.

History has proved your assertion otherwise. I still can't understand why Zik was against having a secession clause in the constitution at the eve of independence, why Ironsi collapsed the regional structure and why Ibos are so possessive of Yoruba land. That Zik and Ironsi, two Ibos who have ruled Nigeria since its creation, stood against secession and regional autonomy in words and actions as echoed by some Ibos' shout of "no man's land" in flagrant display of covetousness is at conflict with your confession.

The difference between some Ibos and Fulanis is like the difference between 10 and a half of score. Both are normardical and covetous of other people's lands. While Fulanis want to come aggressively through the front doors, Ibos are coming cunningly through the back doors. The objective is the same though the approach is different simply because the Fulanis have upper hand by being in charge of security.

You're saying the truth all Ibos know. I've noticed this fear in them of what becomes of them should Nigeria breaks or be regionally structured. They call Yorubas all sort names to blackmail the Yorubas in order for them (the Ibos) to get what they want to get in Nigeria generally and SW specifically. Unfortunately, some Yorubas are falling for this. They know it's only the SW that can easily accommodate them with all their natural shortcomings. They take the Yorubas civility due to their level of education and nature as weakness. Marrying a Yoruba is a great achievement to some of them as they see it as an opportunity to naturalize in Yoruba land. They're not sure of the SS and Northern people as they see those guys as being naturally aggressive. Till today, they have not been able to justify why Zik was against having a secession clause in the constitution and why Ironsi collapsed the regional structure even though the reason is obvious to them.

Don’t vote Tinubu, he will divide this country.

It's very likely. Remember he promised to fight dirty. Since Buhari has said he won't rig the election for him, Tinubu knew it was game over for him except he acts fast.
He really wants to be a president come next year, whether of Nigeria or Oduduwa he just doesn't care. After all, president na president.

True my bro. While Igbos try to actualize their own takeover of the SW by stealth and through insincere 'famzing' of Yorubas.

Yorubas will always work to change that though. It is a cold war against several others we are fairly confident we will win politically in the end.

You should not have responded to that person. Anyone with that level of ignorance does not deserve serious responses.

People should always attempt to educate themselves so they do not lag behind other adults, or even smart kids, per useful and informative knowledge.

The report below was written many years ago and is 'ancient' in terms of the reality of Nigeria today. Things are even more overwhelmingly in the favour of the SW in todays world that has changed significantly, in a socio-economic sense, compared to when the article below was published.

The SW too has gone on to consolidate itself immensely as the socio-economic beginning and end of Nigeria today. Not sure Lagos was the 6th biggest economy of Nigeria it is today (a feet achieved independently of the resources of any other region) back when the comments below was made.

Today, the SW is the hub of new-age money in technology and IT. Considerations more valid for the future than focus on crude etal in a world many Nations are now obsessed with achieving energy transition targets. I.e nations moving away from fossil fuel to aid usage of greener and universally safer fuel sources.

Bro, there is so much more that has now made the SW the first economy in Nigeria and the most advantaged by far.

Just that some people are too ignorantly dangerous to themselves to see the writing on the wall. They are still boasting ignorantly about 1965 reality in 2022.

I agree with you. Nigerians misguidedly continue to focus on the upcoming election, fighting and insulting each other, promoting their own personal messiah and Saint they think can come in and wave a magic wand to make everything alright.

Not possible. Nigeria is not working and cannot work until her fundamental structure changes to stop making it easy for us to rob, cheat, underdevelop, regress, humiliate, disenfranchise and kill each other cheaply and easily.

I have my own candidate for 2023 but not for the purpose other Nigerians seek a President. I want a candidate who can move us close to achieving what is shown below that I believe is the panacea to all the woes of Nigerians. Anything else is a waste of time.

Indeed. Incisive post. It is the patent dishonesty of Igbos that prevents them admitting the truth in their heart which is that they love everything about other Nigerians and their land more than even their own land and people. This is why the Abian who has never ser foot in Lagos is always more concerned about Tinubu and Sanwo Olu rather than Ikpeazu.

You're right that they are taking advantage of our civility but that will stop because it has to and not because we Yorubas want it to.

I still tell Nigerians to take a lesson from brexit but they won't listen. I voted for the UK to remain in Europe but majority voted to leave but I now understand and respect their decision.

Like the SW, the UK is relatively wealthy and more desirable a destination than nations of the EU around her whose citizens had the privilege to move to the UK and settle there.

In the end it became clear to the UK they were becoming poorer and less able to meet the needs of Britons because they had to share jobs, resources, accommodation and even healthcare with folks from several European Countries.

Yorubas are now in that phase and I have seen this mood before. Same mood, driven by what had became an existentialist fervour, especially among older adults, pervaded the air before Brits shocked David Cameron and the world by choosing to Brexit.

I really pity Igbos because they are so materialistic and simplistic they really never see properly or appreciate what is nuanced but obvious.

The North, for example, know precisely what's up hence their desperation to hold on to power even at the risk of opening a Pandora box by truncating the North to South transition of power that is the only thing that keep the peace and still makes Nigeria somewhat predictably steady.

If Igbos had any sense they'd be agitating desperately with Yorubas for regional governance. Yet the part of your post in bold captures their reality brilliantly. They are genuinely afraid to go it alone and afraid of a Nigeria where they do not have access to the resources, land and markets of others.

They only ever make Biafra noise to blackmail Nigeria for power. No bigger proof of this than how Biafra noise is now non-existent because they think Obi stands a chance of winning.

Intelligent people are never fooled by the vapid and vacuous pontificating of Igbos.

I understood the reason why UK was pushing for Brexit then and I indeed supported the move. Thank God it wasn't too late for them. I respect the late sage so much but I've reasoned within me that Yorubas should have asked for total disintegration at independence or supported the British to continue ruling Nigeria until the other regions accepted the idea of that disintegration.
