Truckpusher:yes , he will leave us confused. There was no protest anywhere elese because GEJ had the support of the north and the south south claims he is their son . He still had a good relationship with majority of the present ex PDP members now . It was only the south west that knew this scam was just to aid corruption. You really don't get it. Have you bothered to ask yourself why tinubu had always been a problem to whatever opposition , ask yourself , how many indigenes of APC southwest state are not pleased with their government.he is corrupt and Lagos is where it is , you are only deceiving ur self man. 3 Likes |

Jonathan,in trying to be all things to all men, playing politics of ethnic division and rancour again. What else is new? This ethnic baiting has always exemplified Jonathan's parochial and prejudiced outlook. One wonders how unintelligent our President is to be patronising the intelligence of a Yoruba audience by stating that he intended for a Yoruba to be speaker in 2011. This incredibly silly and ethnocentric attempt at currying favours from the Yorubas , ahead of the 2015 poll, will be offensive to the most intelligent and exposed Yoruba person who appreciate that it is ridiculous and hypocritical of GEJ to suggest he would prefer to influence which ethnic group got what instead of letting stakeholders (Reps themselves) determine who leads them. Is it too much to ask for a President who thinks before he says whatever comes into his Machiavellian mind? 5 Likes |

Redstone:Keep spirituality aside, let's us discuss with empirical facts. If Jonathan tells Yoruba people he wanted Akande-Adeola over Tambuwal as Speaker, what would he tell Hausa/Fulani people; he didn't want Tambuwal hence the Speaker's current problem? 1 Like |

majekdom2:Son,read this,your opinion contradicts that of your people,and therefore,it isn't true!. Marginalisation: Yoruba leaders to storm Aso Rock again DECEMBER 16, 2012 BY ALLWELL OKPI The pan-Yoruba group, Afenifere, has for the second time sought audience with President Goodluck Jonathan to protest the “political marginalisation of the South-West.” The Yoruba leaders, who had earlier visited Jonathan on the same issue, said they were not happy that the President had not taken any action to rectify the “anomaly” in the nation’s political structure, which they had complained about. A leader of Afenifere, Senator Femi Okunrunmu, told SUNDAY PUNCH that the group had already made request for the second visit, and were waiting for the President’s response. He said, “We (Yoruba leaders) had met with Jonathan to complain about the marginalisation of Yoruba, but he has not done anything about it. So, we have decided to pay him another visit. We have already made our intention known to the Presidency. We are now waiting for the President to give us an appointment. “We have the details of the situation which we intend to present to the President. It is as if the South-West has been excised from the country. If you look at all the top political positions and appointments in the country, it is not hard to see that South-West has been marginalised in this administration. “Check from number one, which is the President, to number 15, you won’t find a Yoruba person there. Look at the people controlling the economy, the finance minister, the Central Bank governor, no Yoruba person is there. The first lawyers in this country were Yoruba. Today, Yoruba are marginalised in the judiciary. In the National Assembly, the Senate and the House of Representatives: Yoruba people are not in leadership position. It is bad. It’s as if Yoruba are not wanted.” As you can see,the real issue isn't bad governance,but 'position'. |

SuperModerator: Shut up, if Yorubas are not tribalistic, why do you people hate people from the south east so much, why did your LAGOS governor deport the south easterners claiming they are destitutes, go to idi Araba and see destitutes, but because they are Muslims and northerners, he will never touch them. You are just deranged and frustrated, living in self denial of the obvious truth. Despite the fact that Fashola is a lawyer he chose to deny the south easterners their fundamental human right according to the nigerian constitution. Go tell your tribal stories to the goats in your fathers farm. Rubbish. You think abusing GEJ and calling him names will solve your problems or save you from that your bed of poverty?When OBJ was there, which tribe held the speakership position. Why didn't he give it to the south easterners if it wasn't about tribe. What you don't understand is the political equation upon which Nigeria runs as a result of its ethic and religious diversity. You are just a child and so your kind of reasoning is excused. |
