The APC/PDP thing is not even cos i belong to any political party but PDP refusing to own up to their fault in the present state of Nigeria

I live in Abuja & from the civil service angle, they have totally mortgaged this country...

Only a good leader can turn back the hands of time..

but eni ta n to ri tie gbaawa, ko je ka ri oro so, he is taking his time like he has forever..

Lmao Yoruba please, it means 'Have a nice day', no?

Well my first landing was Abuja, thought it was hot, 'modern', dusty and the roads were big, smooth and clear

Generally speaking as I've passed through a few states, mostly North and South West, I'd say still hot, 'earthy', pot-holey (lol) and vibrant?

jstbeinhonest:

Do you mean regionalism?

Let Fulanis go and defend Buhari on their own. I won't be wasting my time on person non grata.

And Nigerian politics is just crap. We need regionalism urgently. We Yorubas controlled our land before colonialism, we need to take back that control.

I'm giving him a max of 12 months which is fair enough.

But one thing we should always bear in mind is "our tribe is 1st before country's interests" so i can't blame him much....

I've lived with them, they can't think beyond their own..

Until we get true Regionalism, all na wash but i believe this govt will be better than the last....

Don't mind our elekun yen, it would have been worse if they had returned with oil trading at 47$ per barrel....

True words my sister.Like i always say,I'm not interested in Nigerian politics generally,I'm only interested in Yorubaland.The emboldened is a clear message to the "One Nigeria" evangelists.Ko seyi to kan mi pelu PDP ati APC,to me they are all the same.Just the same characters going round the tunnel.The unitary system is our biggest bane to development and its really unfortunate this new government is not implementing the Confab report.ki olorun ko ko wa yo

IlekeHD:


Aunty, why can't Yorubas have the same "our tribe comes first" mentality in politics?





I've never said "WTF" in a good way lol.
An experience indeed. But we can only look forward to better days.

Dude, we're like twins, except you're like 5 decades older.....scary.

I'm tired of the whole APC/PDP saga.

Yorubas needs to steer away from Nigeria politics and should focus more on Yorubaland and Yoruba interest.

Too much iyan no good ooo ha! emi 5 decades older

I'm telling you.some years back,I been dey carry this Naija politics on top head like trailer ni oo.It just got to a point where i just lost interest.

Emi ati awon ore mi ta ma fee yo ese ti ra wa.

"No jega did this" "It was obasanjo that killed tamodu" "What did korikosun do when he was the minister" and some other bullch!t like that

The thing just tire me.

Yep.

Let's focus on admonishing Yoruba politicians [for Yoruba development] when need be and showing them support hen they deserve it.

If politics needs to be discussed, focus on Yoruba own.

modath:


Next visit to Abuja, let us know so we can tell you where it happens, but don't expect lagos kind of happen oo,

IlekeHD:

Assuming I visit? The whole point of going to Nigeria, for me, is to go to Ekiti.
Well I loved it. It's "earthy" like you said, clean, green boisterous. People were generally nice/kind.
I visited several cities/villages in Ekiti. I was happy with the development [even tho it was in a slow pace] Fayemi was achieving in several parts......roads/bridges/fixing our dam.
I spent 80% of my time in my lovely state and I didn't want to go back to Lagos.
I love my state.
I hated the unlawful okadas tho.

Aareonakakanfo:

Do they even care about our admonitions? Besides Fayemi, I don't know any governor in the southwest who screamed about the return to regionalism.He was always present at the DAWN meetings while other south-west governors only sent representatives.

Abeg help us preach the emboldened.I'm thinking of going into a music studio to compose a song on that since we can't use text to convince them.

1bkaye:

I had fun in Abuja o but I will still hold you to this, let me even screen shot this your comment for future reference lol


Haha

Nice! Yes I can definitely attest to the general friendly disposition of the people! Ah ann, but isn't Lagos where it's usually 'happening'? Or something lol

I was in Oyo for about a week, Ibadan for about two days which was nice

No okadas in Abuja yaass! That I saw anyway. Plenty in Ibadan, mehn see how I was fearing for my life as I was walking at night, okadas flying from every corner lol

I ate A LOT too...

lmaoooo. Imagining you @ the studio


The same Fayemi that's now on the national level, singing the "one nigeria" tune?

Ara yin oya ma .I never get your time.





I was about to say that.I'm starting to think our politicians are just powerless.Its very easy to give up in Nigeria.Baba gats chop you know.
