ColonelDrake: LOL baba abeg leave my king o All these kings romance Jesus/Allah too much and it disgusts me. There's no way you'd subject yourself to immense rituals, take oaths at the foot of deities then upon getting on the throne you begin to shout Jesus and Muhammed; who are you fooling? 1 Like |

AkinPhysicist:Well, if that's the angle you're coming from, then you're right. Politically, we know the ass lickers and loyal slaves of the Fulani oligarchy. |

ColonelDrake: I think Tinubu has done some good work for the Yoruba nation. I think Akin is a future Jagaban. His mind is very clear and sharp. And he as pro-Yoruba as they come. I say give him a chance. 6 Likes 1 Share |

Efewestern:I wouldn't have said it better. Truth is, you would find thread as this with more intellectual contents than insults as opposed to the other people. The Itsekiris, though have their origin deeply rooted in the South West, do not share cultural similarities with the Yorubas. The guys here are intelligent, believe me. 17 Likes 1 Share |

AkinPhysicist:I see the foolery is getting to a few elements of Yoruba folks as well. You see that some ignorant folks are claiming that Oduduwa came from Meccah, because Mohammed was from there. Also when they go on hajj, they see the glitter of Meccah (which is a result of Saudi's oil) meanwhile forgetting that when Ile-Ife was an urban center of trade and culture, Meccah was just a small village in the Arabian desert. It even gets more ridiculous when the Awujale was claiming that Ijebus are from Sudan when their founder, Obanta was from Ile-Ife. At the same time, they worry why their brothers, the Remos who are sworn Ife descendants constantly disassociate themselves from the Ijebus. You cannot spit in a pot of soup and expect someone else to eat it with you. I know many Ijebus don't buy that nonsense, but there are some very unfortunate folks out there who would rather claim to be descendant from some far fetched place. Even with this, I agree that Yorubas are faring better in comparison to other ethnic groups. 11 Likes 4 Shares |

ColonelDrake: I agree with you. Some1 like Akin should not get into politics. Because if they are unable to co-opt him with money dem go 'off' the guy. But I guess Akin is too much of a Yoruba nationalist to be co-opted. So he better stay off politics for his own good. 2 Likes 1 Share |

YungMillionaire: YungMill, I will have to disagree with you and the colonel. The political arena is still the most consequential arena in any society. I would rather have the best and the brightest writing the laws than a bunch of mentally lazy hippos. We need to give a chance to young and bright Nigerians to look at the challenges of this country with fresh eyes. These old dogs are bereft of creative ideas and strategies. 7 Likes |

9jakool:Trust me few things are more vexing to me than this Mecca origin business - probably an idea promoted by some Arabs to promote Islam. It makes zero sense. And lacks zero cultural evidence. 9jakool:Thanks for the emboldened gem. 7 Likes 1 Share |

YungMillionaire: You are right, I am not interested. But I have no problem strategizing behind the scenes. I am currently working with a couple of candidates (Pro-Yoruba Nationalists) in my home state. Nigeria is nations within a single nation. All those people doing one Nigeria are avoiding reality. When the time comes each people have to be ready to move forward. 10 Likes 1 Share |

AkinPhysicist:Your story of the people you met in Brazil spoke to me. The funny thing is while these people are yearning hard to claim their Yoruba/African ancestry that was robbed from them, some of our own people are knowingly throwing away their identity. 8 Likes 2 Shares |

FisifunKododada:You're missing the point. Nigeria's current retrogressive political structure doesn't give room for independent thinking and actions. You have to kowtow to either APC Or PDP political whims and caprices. I'd rather support him as an independent candidate and not under any political platform. |

The ooni of ife is not my king. I cant respect a man worships a different religion from our's. I am agnostic but i feel irritated when i see that Ni-ger kneeling down in church to worship a Jewish god. If he is not ready for that post, he should leave it! Nobody forced you to take it. I wont be happy when is see the Oba of Ilesha doing same. Crazy man!!! 3 Likes 1 Share |

YungMillionaire: Well the Chinese are here (Nigeria/Africa) mainly because of the natural resources and growing market. Nigerian Democracy is big business for China. The Chinese can actually choose their 'own' candidate now. While in the past foreign investors had to deal with the powers that be at the time. Remember the Lebanese (when they came during the Military era) could only bribe the military administrators for economic access. The Lebanese did very well but no business like Democracy business - the Chinese are making a killing. If we are not careful, they will own 50% of Africa before 2050. 4 Likes 2 Shares |
