CONGRATULATIONS TO THE AFONJA'S

mfm04622:


I don't know how he came about the surname. However, know that even though not as pronounced as Fulani, Hausas have been living in Ilorin since it was established. However, he is Fulani since he belongs to the ruling family of Ilorin Emirate

the emir is a Yoruba man of Hausa not Fulani descent.

PigTormentor:


Yeah should have appointed young idiots like Thugnor Wicked Wike, confused Ayande, Audio Makinde (FAKE Governor) or Yeye Bello.

Nothing to write home about current crop of Nigerian youths. Some are worse than the old leaders.

Unfortunately your comment is the true situation of youth in government/ politics.Youths have faired better in business and some other things though.

Dpharisee:


He is as Americans will say like the house niggar (Slaves who see the slave master as a superior being because he provides food for them working in his house) and calling others (Yorubas) who are not willing to accept that status names

Not really he’s just confused how the Fulani strategy works
Popular yoruba Muslims names are Bakare, Mustapha, Ahmed, Razaq to mention a few

princdebola201:
allegiance in what sense.

Does sultan of sokoto have influence in ilorin historically?

Yes he does, when former Kwara state Governor Late Mohammed Lawal appointed a Yoruba Oba for Ilorin, it was rejected by the Sultan, who then ensured that Mohammed Lawal was never returned using Obasanjo who deployed Federal might to Kwara to ensure that Bukola Saraki was elected, meanwhile his father promised the Sultan that the Oba will be removed if his son gets elected and it all happened that way.

DonroxyII:
Present Gov Abdurrasaq Abdulrahman is Buhari's baby since CPC days ... so figure the rest!

Gambari is bigger than Gov Rasaq and Saraki combined.

He has been living and working in New York since 1974. And schooled in the UK/US before then

He is an international person. His last budget was 1.7b$. How much is Kwara's budget? He is his own person

lawani:
the emir is a Yoruba man of Hausa not Fulani descent.

The emir is a full blooded Fulani man
Fulani man will never mix with their subjects especially when it comes to royalty

Dpharisee:

Yes he does, when former Kwara state Governor Late Mohammed Lawal appointed a Yoruba Oba for Ilorin, it was rejected by the Sultan, who then ensured that Mohammed Lawal was never returned using Obasanjo who deployed Federal might to Kwara to ensure that Bukola Saraki was elected, meanwhile his father promised the Sultan that the Oba will be removed if his son gets elected and it all happened that way.

Yup that’s very true

princdebola201:
stupid idiot I wasnt talking to you.

Why is truth hurting you badly, she pointed out that a Fulani Emir of Ilorin with allegiance to Sokoto can never be Yorubanized

CreekCommando:

What are you even saying?
This man is a Fulani of Kwara Gambaris who are Fulanis just like Tunde Idiagbon whose dad was Fulani but had Yoruba mom. Buhari till death remains an ethnic g of the first order. Why not appoint a non-Fulani or a total Yoruba man?

So I'm back on track. Anti-Buhari for life

Yankee101:


Gambari is bigger than Gov Rasaq and Saraki combined.

He has been living and working in New York since 1974. And schooled in the UK/US before then

He is an international person. His last budget was 1.7b$. How much is Kwara budget? He is his own person

No he’s not
$1.7bn that’s a fat lie

Nice one from president Buhari

Loyalty. That is why the Igbo man who is the Nigerian ambassador to the United States of America which is considered as one of the "juicest" post is an octogenarian. Buhari is not the one to forget a good deed.

Adefatima:


Ok continue insulting me
I’m pro yoruba and a Muslim at that
This Gambari isn’t a Yoruba but a 100% Fulani
The emir of Ilorin is loyal to the sultan of sokoto

Please stop hurting him with the truth

Yankee101:


Gambari is bigger than Gov Rasaq and Saraki combined.

Agreed 100% ... His records speaks for him ... also He is a Buharist .... 1984 sets

Adefatima:


No he’s not
$1.7bn that’s a fat lie

Go and find the budget for UNAMID when he was special envoy to Dafur

chloedogie:


To those who called president Buhari an ethnic bigot, bubu don surprise you oooo.
And to those who says he is too found of old people, baba don show say una dey correct cos the man na 75 years old.

What is difference between Gambari and Fulani:
No be Afonja Join two of them together?

Dpharisee:


Please stop hurting him with the truth

I’m educating him not hurting him

Kaysalas:

Trust me, your life and purse could be so much better in a country with leaders who have the people at heart. But you will/may never know. Sobs!

You very correct man. Let's just keep doing good. It is already better for us.

FreelanceRebel:


What is difference between Gambari and Fulani:

Lol. This one na half cast.

kollinz1234:
my brother in politics, new cabal only comes with new administration. Stop sounding like a lay man

Just listen to yourself.. You didn't know that Abba Kiayra was the head of the old cabal. Now that he is dead, don't you think another person will want to take the leadership, and this person will not have the same mindset and ideology like Abba.

So you think you know more than the news media who reported about the new cabal?

You definitely sound like a lay man because in Nigeria politics anything is possible, even things you never imagined or had ever thought.

TheGiftedOne:
From KyaRI to GambaRI nna ihea na gbam gaRI

BuhaRI, KyaRI, GambaRI

I don't know why my maternal grandfather died at 80yrs. Who knows, he would have known someone who knows someone that can appoint him. After all, his age mates are the one in charge. He schooled at Unilorin. This Gambari may have been his boy .

frankson1:




I salute you for this response.

Bros I cant be dragging with people that are still being fathered. We need to move on. This is a public market. I greet you too my person.

Mynd44:
He is an uncle to the present Emir Of Ilorin

so he is fulani?

Yankee101:


Go and find the budget for UNAMID when he was special envoy to Dafur

That’s irrelevant to this thread

ernieboy:
so he is fulani?

100% there’s the Alimi ruling house that’s where the Fulanis hail from lol don’t be deceived

More Power to Lie Mohammed! Congratulations to him

Adefatima:


That’s irrelevant to this thread

You said his budget of 1.7b$ at UNAMID is a fat lie. How is looking it up irrelevant?

Meninmen:



You can play the pity card for all I care, that's your business. But anyone, who has seen the ethnic and religious inclinations of PMB in his appointments and now wants to justify him because of the appointment of another Northerner is not only a fool, but a useless fool.


As for you working for an IOC, good for you.

Yes sir. Truth is if you actually have just an element of comprehension, you will understand my statements
You dont need to be a professor of English to understand my lines. Go over it again. You are just giving yourself headaches ontop matter I dont even care about. If a Ghanaian becomes my president tmrw man, I dont give a damn. Politicians are in their own country we are in another. So enjoy your abuses. Me, I don move on. See ya....
