Kemi is ipob

Yorubas and Fulani are one according to Emilokan

Lol. This girl is angering abokîs oo. But she talk truth now. They hide their tribal tendencies under radical islam. What gives the sultan in Sokoto the right to interpret quran supremely for someone in Ogun or Edo state?

Shevchenkko:
Yorubas and Fulani are one according to Emilokan

Obi will say that too if it gives him votes.

SeverusSnape:
Kemi is ipob

Some of you guys deserve the tantrum often thrown at you. Must you drag in your ethnicity or group into every discussion?

Stick to the topic and if you have nothing to offer, you skip to the next one

This is going to be brutal

Kemi identifying with her ethnicity rather than nationality is going to turn the tables round. Here's the paradox

Members of her ethnic group are presently the most pro-Nigerian than any other ethnic group in Nigeria and they have been the ones bashing her for what they believe to be her anti-Nigerian rhetoric. But she just pressed the right button with them by embracing her tribal heritage.

Members of other ethnic groups particularly the South East have been her staunchest defenders because they share in her disillusionment with the present political and governance setup of the country.

With this her latest intervention, her previous enemies will suddenly develop a soft spot for her, remind everyone she's omoluabi and deserves to be whatever she chooses afterwards, while her previous friends will remember she is "afonja", a treacherous snake that should be killed without batting an eyelid.

Just watch

Kinda like this BADenoch....straight up

If only Biafra War was a success

It’s like you people do not know that this Olosho girl is on drugs. Those of us nearby know that she is

Because she says that the North are enemies of YORUBA?

If she said IGBO..you would have praised her abi? You are all delinquent ijiots.

You can't be Yoruba and not support your sister calling out the Northerners.

What is your take?

She is IPOB?

Op, whats your aim tho?


Kemi is a UK citizen. Her matters shouldnt be dominating our space

You are sick.

She is not Yoruba again?
She is not omoluabi, because she smashed Abike Dabiri your foolish sponsor and all other Government nuisances that empower your foolishness

Get the fvvvck outta hia...

Nonsense

EmperorCaesar:
Op, whats your aim tho?


Kemi is a UK citizen. Her matters shouldnt be dominating our space

Looking4Trouble:

You are nowhere near her.
Only in your dreams can you be "nearby" a person on her level.

Yeah, Kemi is not a Nigerian , she is a brit.

Infact, she is even taking a risk by giving this interview, because her detractors will say that she identifies as an African more than being British, which would lead to complications. She should be careful

As for her comments about Hausas, well, Nigeria is a contraption of over 300 tribes that have nothing in common with each other. Even before colonial rule, there was no such thing as Yoruba or Hausa nation. When even Yorubas were taking slaves from other Yoruba polities, ditto Hausas and even Igbos. Unity was forced upon these tribes by colonial rule which meant that everyone had a common enemy, and people sought to unite, and thus tribe became more important than origin.

NIgeria, as I said is a contraption. The problem is, breaking it up would lead to chaos. Before whitey united us in countries we were not all holding hands around the fire singing kumbayah. We fought each other, took slaves from each other, and many tribes were divided into small countries and nations. Infact some people who are supposedly Yoruba , Hausa or Igbo were once separate tribes from the big three. Colonial rule brought about tribal unity. Otherwise, when whitey came around, there was civil war among the Yorubas, and IBo land was a divided piece of realestate. *Yes, go and read things fall apart, where Okonkwo remembers the war against isike...those were not people from another tribe, they were IGBOS. Hausa land was divided into several kingdoms which fought each other, and were only united by Danfodio...and even then all he did was replace the elite with Fulanis. (and the fuianis are divided self, even today).

All in all, Kemi is lost to our country. She is a black briton. She is no longer Nigerian...if she ever was.

Loyal koneheaded structured slaves will soon rise in defence of their masters..

I stand with Kemi. There's nothing wrong with she said. People should be proud of their tribe.

EmperorCaesar:

a potential future prime minister of our former colonial masters. Dey play

OkpaNsukkaisBae:

using this logic why should white people allow her be conservative leader or even a future prime minister?

SeverusSnape:
Kemi is ipob

so Afonjas are IPOBs now

You see.. she said clearly she doesn’t identify as a Nigerian but as a Yoruba. Tinubu said the same thing in 2001. Awolowo said the same thing about Nigeria that he identifies as Yoruba and that there is nothing like one Nigeria but just “mere geographical expressions ..” so that when the hypocrites start wailing about the independent people of Biafra you will know the actual enemies of Nigeria who hate Nigeria but claim to love it due to their jealousy towards Igbo progress and greatness

She is right. Even I see myself as a Yoruba first than a Nigerian. Chimamanda also said she sees herself as an Igbo first.

Nigeria is just a geographical area that we were all lumped into by the British.

Truth be told, I will feel more comfortable, and at home, in Porto-Novo in Benin Republic than in Owerri or Kano. Same reason Benin Republic refused to give up Sunday Igboho to Buhari (a Fulani).

When I was at Uni in Canada, the Northerners (from Katsina) then in some classes I took were in the same reading group as the Niger Republic coursemates we had. They had a common language which is the Hausas which they proudly speak to each other most of the time.

As per the enemy in her statement. Truth be told, Yoruba and igbo quarrel, na online e dey.
But you see the hausa/Fulani quarrel, they always take it to the street where they k!ll themselves every now and then. I have lost count of ethnic clashes between the two ethnic groups. A good student of history, pre-Nigeria would also tell you that the Yorubas greatest threat are the Fulani.

You said the truth. Most of the Yorubas, especially the ones on this forum just support the Northerners and Nigeria because of votes and oil. Just imagine.

ednut1:

It's her choice if she doesn't want to identify with those who promote islamic terrorism, Sharia and Boko Haram. Is there Boko Haram in the UK? Shey dem get Sharia law there?

It's her decision and choice, people should respect her.

OkpaNsukkaisBae:

some Muslims in the UK are demanding for sharia law . some have waved banners asking for sharia law in uk

Zooposki:

That's policitics and policiticians for you. An average Yoruba man trusts the Igbo more than an Hausa/Fulani. If they were to select in real life, they will gladly go with the Igbo. You can't sleep with both your eyes closed with a northerner.

I can't count the amount of school days I missed due to Yoruba/Hausa and Fulani clashes in Agege. But since I was born, I have never heard of a Yoruba or Igbo ethnic class and I am over 40.

During the religious riots in the north, Hausa/fulani would be the ones to point your hiding location to the k!ller mobs.

You did not answer the question.

every Saturday Yoruba and igbo dey marry each other😂

I join to share in her perceptions.
She has my undiluted support any day anytime.
Nothing amazes me about a disorganized, distorted and a Lawless nation.
IF you are happy and fulfilled at the state of things in that country then you should be arrested for being the perpetrator.

I've always held that opinion.
We need a working Nigeria, more than regional secession.

If Biafra comes, the oil regions will claim leadership.
Imo and Rivers state will go to war over their shared oil rich boundary.
Enugu will still keep hating on Imo people.
Ebonyi will be the minority/underdogs.
Hausa vs Fulani
Niger delta already has internal wars amongst the ijaws and other tribes in the delta.
Lagos will press their neck in the west.

Infact, instead of eldorado, we'll become the next Somali land or Sudan

We are not the same and never will

Yorubas have a strong cultural heritage and we have values and traditions which we cherish

That’s why I keep advocating for regional government
