Why I Founded Yoruba Party In UK - Dr Olusola Oni by Ofemannnu: 5:20am On Jul 06
The YPUK wants the British public to know about the ...

That we did not cede the Yoruba country to Britain and Britain had no jurisdiction; that Britain stole our sovereignty in the act of Amalgamation of 1914...

Nigel Farage’s UK Independence Party (UKIP) has demonstrated what a small party could achieve without having a parliamentary majority. UKIP showed how a small party could change the course of the British nation. UKIP’s campaign was successful because it was focused solely on restoring Britain’s sovereignty. The UK left the EU to regain its sovereignty. That was it. Brexit was all about sovereignty. European and American support for Israel is all about sovereignty, Israel’s sovereignty. Sovereignty sells. YorubExit, like Brexit, is all about sovereignty. The question is how we Yoruba could play this sovereignty card, and make the people of Britain support Yoruba sovereignty. To achieve this requires that the Yoruba have a direct political voice at Westminster.

On 13 February 2024, I founded the Yoruba Party in the UK (YPUK), and registered it with the Electoral Commission in London. I founded the YPUK to encourage, energise and assist Yoruba people domiciled in the United Kingdom to achieve their full potential as individuals and as a group, and to encourage and assist them to contribute their all to the political and socio-economic life, and the development and growth of the UK.

By active participation in UK life, YPUK means

· standing candidates in local and parliamentary elections in the UK.

· changing the negative perception of the UK public of black Britons.

· showcasing the Yoruba culture and tradition to the UK public.

· advertising ancient and modern Yoruba achievements in the UK.

· campaigning for and publicising worldwide the Yoruba cause whatever that might be.

The YPUK has created a brand, a known entity, which the community could identify with and relate to. The YPUK shows commitment different from the usual stereotypes that the British have of black people. Best of all, YPUK gives the Yoruba access to electoral power in the UK.

The YPUK wants the British public to know about the Yoruba Nation: that we had our own independent country, which signed a treaty of friendship and trade with Queen Victoria’s Britain in 1888; that we did not cede the Yoruba country to Britain and Britain had no jurisdiction; that Britain stole our sovereignty in the act of Amalgamation of 1914; that we want our sovereignty back, and are entitled to have it back, just like Britain got its sovereignty back from Europe in the act of Brexit.

Our first test is the parliamentary elections that the Prime Minister, Rishi Sunak, is likely to call as early as July 2024. YPUK intends to have candidates for that election. If you are interested in standing for that election, please contact us for an election pack. Those who do not wish to stand for election could support us with donations – paypal.me/YorubaParty; please include with your donation, your name, phone number and/or email address for acknowledgement.

God bless you Dr. Olusola Oni. You are doing a great service for the Yoruba people all over the world by bringing Yoruba culture, values, history, religion and consciousness to the front burner of UK politics. May Eledumare continue to guide you in your quest for promoting Yoruba consciousness.

Go and rest. You don't have a defence for your tribalism. Aba has been called a no man's land since 1880 AD till today and no one is attacked during elections.

Are these Yorubas really extremely tribalistic?

Instead of the tribal bigot to enter labour party and win just like his mates won massively to UK parliament, the tribal bigot created a tribal bigot party for his tribal bigot kinsmen and failed woefully.

Pathetic

I still think it is an intelligent move different from ipob abusive words against UK and the free rein of violence.

It is a fairly new party,founded by one individual and maybe in the subsequent elections,they will win a couple of seats even if it is local.

That is how shallow minded they are, they are always so self centered without apologies. Imagine forming a yoruba party in another mans land, how will any sensible voter vote for such a party. I guess it's only yorubas that will vote for the yoruba party and that was why they failed woefully in the election.

The same way Nigerians see Ojukwu and AZik who were tribalistic and jingoistic.....the latter was alive when his own people were being bombed and shelling by the same people he collaborated with ( the north) to extinguish the light of secession in Nigeria.. grin grin grin

That is where you are wrong because he wouldnt be able to use Labour Party for their cause.
Labour Party has its own ideologies which are different from what the Dr wants.
If you go through his reasons,you will see that it is basically because of the Yoruba Nation cause that he founded the party.
This is why he named it Yoruba Party.
They are in the main eye of UK political ocean now.

Tribalism against who?
Britons?
He already stated in his words that the party was formed because of their Yoruba Nation agitation.
Igbos should learn from the Yorubas and stop maiming and killing themselves.
