poshestmina: Its a lie. Zik tried to cooperate in 1965 and Ojuwku released Awolowo and see what happened to the Igbo man. Gej cooperated and did all he could for the SW and see what happened to the Ijaw man. The Yoruba are only interested in fulfilling and forming alliance with those who will promote and protect their interest, no matter how unethical, no matter if there's a betrayal, no matter what the cost is. Yes, it is their right to safeguard their interest, especially since their region lacks much resources and the people generally are not serious about real nation building or development. However the above OP should not infer that aligning with Yoruba is noble or that Yoruba people would protect other's interest because history has shown it to be quit contrary. 34 Likes 2 Shares |

No region can afford not to associate with thebYorubas, pure and simple. Their continued existence' prosperity and progress depends on the Yoruba's. The Yoruba's know this that's why they are not moved by threats or stupid innuendos. When the biafrans threatened to invade Lagos with their stupid protest, all Ambode had to do was destroy a few shops, they got the message and all thoughts of biafran protest were promptly buried. 17 Likes 1 Share |

huptin: Yorubas not moved by threats? Ambode destroying some quack outdoor spaces called shops? I'm sure Abiola and Diya would laugh at such silly talk. If at any, Yoruba people have for the last 150 years been the most moved by threats and talks of threats, which even the English found out upon their swift military camp over Oduduwa.

WhoRUDeceiving:stop distorting facts. Zik didn't cooperate. Awolowo met with him on ways to form a southern country, but Zik in his quest to dominate disregarded him and formed a party alliance with the North only for him to be made a mere ceremonial president. As for Ojukwu, he never released Awolowo. Why do you think Awolowo was made finance minister upon his return from jail? That's cos he was released by the government in power, otherwise he would have been arrested again if he was released by Ojukwu. Pls stop spreading falsehood. 20 Likes |

bloodyBLOGGER: You actually are a poor historian, despite the free and readily available info on the web and in print. Zik trying to dominate Nigeria or Zik fighting to free a bunch of Africans from their former (and even current) slave masters? Why Awolowo was made finance minister by Gowon and even accepted , yet you cannot use the brain given to you to think. You are joking right? Or perhaps you already know and are ashamed to say. To all my Ijaw kins, we know the Yoruba can never be trusted politically and I thank the creator that everyone in the Midwest and East have FINALLY come to see that. Nonsense 15 Likes 1 Share |

WhoRUDeceiving: Very sorry sir. Everything you wrote up there does not make a single sense to me. The English never camped around Oduduwa, they met a 100 years war going on, their approach to capture the south west was more of a collaborative rather than an aggressive one. They came with trade, education and religion, the Yoruba's welcome them with open arms, and when the Yoruba's had enough of them they simply asked for independence and they got it. I marvel at the way you people revise history, so Diya and Adisa cried and prostrated, yeah. But wait a minute, where is Abacha? Dead and buried, and did the Yoruba's not rule the nation for 8 years? Are they not the vice president and senate president now? Tact is a billion times better than bluff. 20 Likes |

As for me. The Northerners are the best to associate with. I will always pick them ahead of any ethnic/tribe in Nigeria. Look at the leaders that performed well during their time, most of them are from the North. Even our own sonn OBJ never contributed to southwest, his administration was corrupt like Jonathan. The senator made some valid point. If you like abuse him, he just said the truth. In the last election, the vote from the southwest helped PMB to win GEJ in the presidential election despite the rigging from SS and some part of SE. As for the Biafran people, if you want to be the leader of this great nation, you need to stop hating Yoruba/Hausa-Fulani people because your population is not up to them and stop supporting people that are corrupt just because they are from your region. 10 Likes |

huptin: Accept your apology, but of course, this is a very complacent writeup of what actually transpired in Oduduwa. The word collaborative means sitting at the high table drinking tea and accepting certain things as equal partners, and for a place once referred to as the Slave Coast, I think collaborative is far from the truth, especially with the British. Any group that welcomes a foreign power with "Open Arms" is by that very act, a serf, slave, vassal, or one aspiring or accepting such title. Abacha being dead? Well "yeah", but with billions wasted and those around him still in top positions (i.e. Buhari) you surely must ask yourself why the country has no airline till date, no better hospital, and it's still finding it difficult to trace some of the loot nearly 20 years later. And lastly, Yoruba being Vice and Senate President is a testimony on the sabotage of the hopeful Southern solidarity by the Southwest, and I 'm glad folks East of Ondo are hearing the truth spill out daily from una 6 Likes |
