Abiola Ajimobi, Governor of Oyo State who spoke at the flag-off of the governorship campaign rally which held at the Oke Ado state party secretariat, Ibadan, stated that it’s better Tinubu imposed guber candidate on Oyo people than Igbo man Secondus.

According to Ajimobi, Oyo people should be worried about a non-Yoruba in the person of Secondus who according to him, chooses and determines the party’s choice for the election.

He said, “Before I said Adelabu would be the governor, God spoke to me. And some people said it was Tinubu who told me.

“Please is Tinubu living in Ibadan with us? Even if Tinubu had even told me, is it not better than Secondus, who is an Igbo man, to tell them who should be their flagbearer?

“You all should know that with all these that we are doing, God is really with us because when we started, what we asked God was that if we will do well, God should help us to get there and if we won’t do well, he shouldn’t allow us to get there.

“How many politicians can say that? It is almost eight years and you all can see how well we have done.
“Before we came into power, when they tell you someone is an NURTW member, do you stay close to him?

“How well do you pass through Iwo road and other places around town? Is it not in fear and anxiety? But the story has changed. There is peace and even the NURTW members are now peaceful and gentle people.
“God sees my heart. It is God who made us choose Adelabu. All those who aspired for the ticket, there was nobody among them who was not qualified. We had people with first class and second class in various fields, but the scripture must be fulfilled.

“Among all those who contested for the ticket, God told me that I should pick the youngest person in age and when you look at the bible for the story of David, you will understand better.

“Please, the remaining of you that you contested for the post, I beg you to forgive me. Adelabu did not put himself there, God put him there. He only used us to get there and I assure you, he will not misuse it.”

When you think things cannot get worse in Nigeria... Ajimobi is supposed to be educated. I see no evidence of that here

Since the days of Awolowo, the average yoruber man is filled with an unlimited amount of hate, bitterness, obsession and a very high level of ignorance about igbos. They may not always openly show it but it is deeply rooted in their hearts. BTW Uche Secondus is not even Igbo SMH.

Warship:


Uche is an Igbo name but unfortunately, some Igbos think they are not Igbos but descendants of Bini who migrated to Igboland and yet when you ask them why they don't speak Bini or bear Bini names, you see them wobbling and fumbling.

Fatherofdragons:


My brother I tire, dem go deny say dem be igbos but on the national stage or to outsiders, if dem do bad thing na Igbos go take all their wahala.

This exactly the problem , there is a family friend of us a woman from edo, those part edo close to delta, I was shocked the day I heard her brothers name is onyeka.
But they claim edo.

OK imagine if that onyeka commits crime of rape or fraud.
It will be reported "onyeka raped a woman"
And this afonja here will gather to shout igbo igbo BECOZ of the name onyeka.SMH

mynd44 and seun, this is serious,
Calling a tribe useless.
Violate rule 2 and 3.

Heartbender:
The problem with Nigeria is WAZOBIA...this educated illiterate brown roofed governor doesn't know the difference between Rivers and South-East and the Igbos are mischievous enough to agree South-South is an Igbo region. At the end, the Hausa man lumps us all and butchers like a demented meat seller whenever there is crisis in the North. I wish Middle Belt and South-South can have a pact and leave these mad people

Equity311987:
No Yoruba man can trust ibo because as a Yoruba, if you hear the name of the tribe called Ibo, the first thing that will come to your mind is fraudsters

Fatherofdragons:


Honestly, it's very troubling but the man is an andoni man and the their pronounciation of uche is different from Igbo pronounciation and has different meanings.
