Who ed who to wicked anybody.

From Zik through to Ekwueme down to Peter Obi in PDP, Nigerian politics has been littered with Ndigbo politicians enjoying their house negro status to the North.

When Awo was alive, he wouldn't let Ndi Yoruba align with North on that basis under any condition.

The ones that came after him like MKO, OBJ and President Tinubu broke that mould of under any condition but still insisted on being at the head of the top table at some point.

Which is where we are presently, Ndi Yoruba president with strong Ndi Yoruba representation in important places in government.

Fair play to Peter Obi, he too is breaking that subservient mode, but as President Tinubu showed him, shoe get size.

You are welcome to the free history lesson.

But Akintola was a house negro to Sardauna. Awolowo worse was a house negro to Gowon. Arisekola was house negro to Abacha.

Before the discovery of oil in the Nigeria Delta, what was the financial position of each region in Nigeria? Which of the three regions plus Lagos was topping in all economic indices? Kindly do your research and post your answer here.
Just the sea port , just get in a government that truly wants Nigeria to develop and open and encourage other seaports and airports to operate without sabotage from the south west and let’s see what will happen

We dont want any regionalism talk, we are all one Nigeria.

Tunde, just one question for you; tell me just one thing one Nigeria has made you benefit that would have been impossible achieving that as a regional or divided entity

It is just a few in the North who are against the bill. Please, get a copy of the bill and read up. How would Nigerians have a sigh of relief from hardship if the north continue kicking against the bill?

The bill will not reverse the hardship inflicted on this nation by Tinubu's bolekaja' economic policy prescriptions

Which bold move?
This is a yoruba-sponsored bill meant to feed their selfish interests, seeing that lagos and ogùn states genertate more VATs because of their strategic advantages/locations.

This is not a bill you'll expect all southerners to because they too, just like the north, will be victims of the reform.

Lagos wants to keep all its huge VATs, which every Nigerian directly or indirectly contributes to, while at the same time partake in sharing the revenues generated from the natural resources in other regions.

If the yorubas who are pushing for this bill are serious, they should go for full resource control.
I'm sure they won't do that.

I think you should read up on the bill, it has been brilliantly explained by a lot of people on here.

For you to tribalise it suggests you haven't or someone who hadn't explained it to you.

Oga stop mentioning igbos and talk to the person you claim you never voted him, but you are doing hatchet job for him here tacitly ing him.
Oga stop the lies and indicate you voted him with your full chest and stop lying.

The person I responded to talked about Ndigbo and Ndijaw.

I am not perfect but would be lying if I said I voted who I didnt.

That I didn't vote the government doesn't stop me hailing their achievements, I am not a bitter Obidient.

This question is for the person I responded to who said SE legislators "condemned" the bill.

I go by what people say, if you can prove the poster was wrong, I would be happy to delete my post or modify it to reflect the facts you provided.

I have done so before more than once.

Again this is where i have issues with you where is the link with Biafra on this bill. You guys always use this to attack igbo. Oga be very careful with this incitement.

Again I made my comments based on what was posted.

I said "maybe" to the Biafra aspect of my post, I am sure you can see why it is plausible if SE legislators are against the bill en-masse. There was no disparagment of Biafra in my post as it happens.

If you read further, instead of seeing red at the mention of Biafra, I argued against the poster's assertion that South Eastern states were particularly basket cases.

How sure are you that the person is an igno person. Why must you mention igbo in this?

I have encountered cr7lomo a few times.

Based on his rabid bitterness and anger about anything Ndi Yoruba, I can confidently say he is an Ndigbo Obidient that is still unhappy about President Tinubu slapping the taste out of Peter Obi's mouth in the last elections.

Besides, Ndigbo did vote PDP everytime, except last time when they voted LP so what I have said about Ndigbo is right giving the context.

I will always say it igbos are the most useless tribe in Nigeria. They can never lead this country. Bad people

Tinubu just want to test how popular he is in the North. They will show him shege promax. If that bill es, you know that it is not North we are dealing with. Their interest comes first and their interest is revenue from all sources including from your beer and expensive champagne

You clearly are tweaked by the house negro reference, you must get over that by yourself.

I am not going to waste my time defending Akintola or Arisekola.

Awolowo was certainly not what you described him as. A group of military people went to beg him to be a central part of their government in trying times for the country.

When the war ended and he realised the military boys were not ready to handover to civilians, he resigned on principle. This is despite being begged to stay on board.

Gowon is still alive, go and ask him how important Awo was in his cabinet.

There is a reason why some policies in Gowon's istration are clearly ascribed to him, when he spoke, the rest of the cabinet listened and implemented them without question.

You mustn't just look at my post, you must look at the poster and post I am responding to in order to see the context.

I have a nasty feeling these people are planning a repeat of 1966. That's the only plausible reason they've repeatedly failed to promote government policies and success but rather focused demonizing one particular tribe for no sensible reason. I pray I'm wrong but history is a stubborn donkey

They are just bluffing... However, the unity of Nigeria is in the hands of the Yoruba; the very second they unitedly say they don't want anymore, it would be game over.

Why Tinubu is secured in 2027 (if you like vote or not).

Yorubas cannot decide the unity of Nigeria.

Yes, it has been ''brilliantly explained'' by the yoruba ers of the bill. I don't need their explanations.

Your last sentence presupposes i can't understand basic things by myself. That's absolute nonsense!
Btw, what has Tinubu not tribalize in his istration?? How many Igbos are in his government, even where federal character is needed?
Why do you guys always focus on those who follow the steps you have chosen, instead of on yourselves who took the wrong step in the first place?

How will the North wait for him in 2027 elections? When the South is supposed to use 8 years? Which means if the North wants to come back in 2027 they will use just one term instead of two. And believe me they won't want that. And they know that BAT is very stubborn. The worst they can do is what Ndume has been doing in the upper chamber . They will just sit and be watching him all through his 8 years so that they can have their own 8 years in peace.
If Jonathan was able to lose re-election to a northern candidate thanks to tinubu, then anybody can.

It's just a matter of forming the right opposition.

Bros forget nothing will happen if that bill doesn't . You cannot threaten anyone, the greatest mistake Yorubas will make is to attempt any secession now.

No one is threatening anyone. My point is that Yoruba's always find ways to get what they want as valuable people are able to do. When Buhari held the entire South to ransom with Fulani herdsmen menace who acted, while others looked on helplessly like mumus, to create Amotekun and unilaterally ban open grazing in their region?

Abi any of your governors ed Yoruba governors to make the demand below in 2021?

You people should thank God for putting Yorubas in Nigeria because you all make a lot of empty braggart noise but when evil shows face you all hide bar the Yorubas. I know this and so does the North so no need for long back and forth. We will see how it goes with the bill.

Jonathan is not Tinubu and Tinubu is not Jonathan. Even you yourself acknowledged Tinubu up there for defeating Tinubu. that in 2003, PDP won all the SW states except Lagos. The political strategies are still there. Let me share you a secret; before Jagaban won 2023 election; he had already planned for 2027.
One thing I learnt from his political journey; before you carry out any action, plan ahead for the worst case scenario. That will enable you to block every loopholes.

Please do you care to explain the above? Was Jonathan not the president for 6 years? Didn't he surrounded himself with technocrats that are of igbo origins? Was Obi not part of Jonathan's economic team? What happened to your people in negotiating seaports and airports when they were in power indirectly? Or your governors and technocrats in power forgot to negotiate about that.
The Lekki deep sea port we are celebrating in Lagos today was initiated by Tinubu when he was the governor then but due to legislative act and funding it didn't manifest on time so when Tinubu was initiating it then what were the SS and SE doing then? Blaming SW for your woes. Kwantinu you hear and don't hold your state governors responsible.

It never a must that Tinubu should do 8 years. Constitutionally it is the electorates that would determine who and who will occupy the seat of president.
This awkward mentality is what is getting some regions upset.
The presidency rotation between southern states and the northern states is just a mutual understanding and not cast in stone because it is not constitutionally. Just mutual understanding within political interests.
Let me ask you, did heaven falls when Jonathan didn't do second term? Just to let you know that doing two wasn't cast in stone but just a mutual understanding on political ground.

Ok, he should pull out with South West. The South South will stay if we get the presidency. There will be no regional government nor resource control on our end since that is what a BAT presidency also means. Checkmate.
They play... If SW pulls out, you think the average SS or Middle belt will stay with the North? Or you've forgotten the shege the North shows your son, GEJ when he was the president? Just dey play. SW pulls out; the SE and SS will have no choice than to pull out also.

And that mutual understanding must be respected. And as for Jonathan; so many forces were against him. Obasanjo was his godfather then. But he refused to listen to his Godfather and his godfather er his enemies (BAT and Buhari, Saraki and G5 governors) and he was defeated. Jonathan had so many enemies and they ganged up against him.
Jagaban has no godfather; he is the godfather himself. The kingmaker! So how do you expect a kingmaker to lost elections? The igbos hasn't tasted the presidency for so long just because they have refused to learn the political strategies. My brother or sister; only God can stop Tinubu.

Mention what Buhari did that Yorubas challenged and igbo kept mute? Did Tinubu challenge Buhair when herdsmen were sacking your villagers and turning you to IDPs in Benin Republic? Oga stop being stupid.

Please, did Igbo governors not sit on the fence over open grazing while Yorubas decisively championed and enforced it? Simple yes or no because history exists that shows the spineless actions and inactions of Igbo Governors, too petrified of Buhari, during that time.

Amotekun too, or similar, Igbo Governors were too scared to even mention till Yorubas initiated the moved and gave the security outfit legal status through their State houses of assembly. Only after Yorubas had worked to deliver Amotekun that your cowardly opportunists rushed to create Ebubeagu.

Look, there are too many examples that shows what Igbo leaders, and Igbo men by extension, are. It is why Bianca Ojukwu said Igbo land is no longer producing men but "one man down" opportunists.

I bet as, usual, you will argue blindly and aimlessly since Igbo man never respects facts and documented history but instead prefers to make rubbish up, tell "Buhari is dead and cloned" lies or create fake news. Oya na, insult Bianca for her claims below since you lot love denying korokoro truth. No one respect Igbo leaders whereas Yorubas, whatever their fault may be, are generally respected and regarded.

•••SAYS WHAT WE HAVE ARE MEN THAT ARE NOT MEN

Bianca Ojukwu, Former Beauty Queen, and the widow of the late Igbo leader, Dim Chukwuemeka Odumegwu Ojukwu, has described Igbo men as cowards,

She said ,“Until 2023 we will that power has fallen when Dim Ojukwu died. We miss him particularly in Igboland. Why do we miss him? It is because in Igboland today, we have deficit of credible leaders. What we have today in Igboland are men who are not men.

“What we have today is one man down, one less competitor. That is why with what is happening today in the country we don’t have men who can stand up to speak for Ndigbo.”

They just love making wild, ludicrous and unsubstantiated claims so they appear victims always while insisting others, like the Yorubas, are perpetrators.

Imagine the idiocy of publicly making the ridiculous claim Yorubas prevented the siting of ports in other regions of the South outside the SW when Tinubu achieved some of greatest feats for Lagos, like Eko Atlantic and LFTZ, while opposition governor with a President who hated him ionately in OBJ.

Somehow Igbos could not reverse all the negatives they stated was done to them, courtesy of the Yorubas, when they were the darling of GEJ's cabinet for the five years he was President.

Anyway, what does one expect from a people who had the audacity to insist Buhari had died to be secretly replaced by a Jubrin from Sudan? Totally delusional and dishonest folks who don't care how they appear with their outrageous claims.
