Before A Hate For SW Brews Up by Nobody: 4:35am On Apr 02, 2015 |
Since the incumbent lost the presidential election, a lot of threads and comments have been flying across social media, majority with contents against the yorubas and coming from the Ibos. They claim the yorubas betrayed a southern solidarity. I really believe this has to be nipped in the bud before it fester into something uncontrollable. Our fellow southerners have to exercise the spirit of sportsmanship and move on. Hate comments won't get you anywhere as it has never done before. Maybe there are some things they fail to understand, I don't know. Dissecting their argument, one would realise they are bad students of history. You claim the yorubas are always betraying the southern solidarity just cos they refused to make GEJ win their region in 2015. If that's true, what will you call what Nnamdi azikiwe and his tribesmen did with tafawa balewa against an awolowo? what about the Ibo alliance with the north against thesame awolowo during the time of shagari and ekweme? Where was the southern solidarity then? The yorubas never whined about it, they just believed you did what was best for yourselves. You also claim they jilted GEJ when he needed the southern solidarity. I'll tell you that GE squandered the goodwill he was given on a platter of gold by not only the SE and SS, but also the SW who voted massively for him against a buhari who had one of their sons(tunde bakare) as running mate. It is very clear that the yorubas only vote based on performance and not ethnic and religious sentiments. It is so pathetic how the Ibos come from nowhere to claim ownership of a project all nigerians worked for. Where were they when the yorubas and their OCCUPY NIGERIA campaigned with rigorous protests against turai yaradua who was performing the role of president when we had a vice president jonathan to fill in for the sick president yaradua? The protests started at freedom park ojota before it moved to NA at abuja. Left to the northern oligarchy, turai would have finished Yaradua's tenure. The yorubas didn't stop there, they went ahead to vote for him massively in 2011, where he won the region save for osun state. They were tired of a PDP led federal administration but still voted for him on the auspices of voting for a gentleman and not his party. It is so annoying how the Ibos came out of nowhere to claim him as theirs alone. He belonged to the south and was a southern project that failed. He failed the SS, except if you are fooled by his empowerment of militants. He failed the SE, except if you are fooled by a picture bridge that will be tolled if it ever comes to light. Yes, he gave you people more political appointments and called you the pillar of his government, but were you truly the pillar? The pillar of his government are the yorubas who were also the foundation. They fought for him to be president and still voted for him. That's not even where it started. A yoruba man, OBJ, picked him to be VP and went against all odds to make him president. Left to GEJ alone, do you think he would have been able to cruise easily against the northerners? Now, where's the betrayal in voting out a president that neglected the SW in terms of projects, appointments, recognition etc? This same man made situation worse for himself neglecting the country. He neglected the northeast, allowing boko haram to thrive and only realised he had a winning formula few weeks to when he needed them and reasonable nigerians. The yorubas truly love nigeria and are ready to sacrifice for its unity. Had it been he performed in our region and neglected the NE, we would have questioned him and still vote him out. It's simple! We stand by others during their trying times cos we would want such, cos who knows, tomorrow may be your turn. But the bigots and haters laughed at the NE while they cried, they rubbed mud in their face, called them people who give birth to children in large numbers and abandon them. The worse that can happen to a race of people is allowing a complete failure to continue ruling you because he's somehow related to you. It amounts to patting a man on his head for sleeping with your wife cos he's your neighbour. The SE has now directed their hate towards the SW just because of an ijaw man whose tribe aren't even crazy about. They have now realise that the north is just too powerful for them to handle and now think the yorubas are easy pickings. Guess what? This election has now opened the eyes of the yorubas to your hate for them and for nigeria. Your foolishness is about to bring out the beast in them. Before it's too late..... 69 Likes 11 Shares |

chukwudi44:as it stands, the north owes the SW. They won't be stupid enough to go against the SW, who kept them away from power for close to 16yrs and finally brought them back. I know your wish is for enmity to ensue between both regions, but it won't work cos they have now seen the hazard of aligning with the SS or with the SE. Right about now, PDP should go about guarding its jugular cos APC will be coming after it to ensure the party gets reduced to the level of APGA. You are about to be shown how to use federal power. @bold. You see why you guys never progress? You always harbour hatred. I wonder why you are tagging the SS along. Maybe it's the usual attache by force. 17 Likes 1 Share |

OP I say let them bring it on I can authoritatively tell you that high ranking APC officials in the SW have this on their agenda as well, It was the lack of support from the govt at the center that hindered them Some are going to deal with the Ibo problem once and for all We the Amala people according to Arthur Eze in the presence of Jonathan are ready to show our Amala ways Their APGA is now on the same level with KOWA Southern SOlidarity ko, Southern mumurity ni 18 Likes 1 Share |

Re: Before A Hate For SW Brews Up by seunfly: 5:35am On Apr 02, 2015 |
I don't like this tribalism stuff I thought we are beyond that, anyway I blame Jonathan's useless government who tried to use religion, tribalism and hate campaign to cover up his clueless government. That is what you get when you have a very bad leader who is not mature and ready to progress. For God sake why will you continue to stick with a failure all in the name of tribalism and ethnic prejudice when you have option to change him for potential better option. I don't care who is gorverning the country provided the country is moving forward ( food is on my table, infrastructures are provided, hospitals are working properly, good roads are provided) or what is the benefit of siding with my tribal or religious mate that can not provide for today and guarantee tomorrow. Kai!!!!!!!!!! I don't know why some people are so backward and shallow in thinking. @OP please do not descend so low to their level, they just want to blame someone for sticking with a failure, that is what they are known for and that is who they are. 5 Likes |

chukwudi44: Frankly, even many Yorubas don't know who he is, even Buhari couldn't remember who he was during those "rally" events MayorofLagos: This is the realest post on Nairaland this week (even though I too mentioned it). Igbo people and their kins in the "Niger-Delta" for some reason refuse to accept that MayorofLagos: Yes, Igbo are from 40-50 percent, but it is not there papa land. Instead of developing the East, they still go to the North and west. But there are Yoruba who also do it. Funny enough, 2 Igbo folks will be representing Lagos in the HOUSE i hear. MayorofLagos: I think in the past, there has been a lot of mistrust (Chiefly because of the controversial positions taken by some Yoruba and Middle Belt Xtians) against the East, but a lot of progress had been made...until its time for election. In 2011 there was no reason for Yoruba to vote against GEJ, that would have totally been obviously foolish because the game was only at half-time then, but surely during injury time Tinubu substituted Amaechi and Rochas for Buhari and Osinbjjjo, and the Mallam referee awarded them penalty kick... 5 Likes |

Lemme comment as a northerner.. I wish we will all let this tribalism die off.. Honestly they love I have for the to yorubas at the moment is at an all time high, respect no, unparalleled, Every time vp osibanjo open his mouth to talk I respect them even more. However my ibo brothers I pray you all get healed from this hate and become like ameachi and the great rochas. For only by being like them can you all become a part of the national political landscape. Look where hate has led you to, no president. No VP. , no senate, maybe no speaker see.. and yet you all continue the hate. What happened to, love thy neighbor as much as you love yourself... . Pls let start seeing ourselves as Nigerians first and tribe second. Love y'll 8 Likes 2 Shares |
