My long time friend Peter Ahante, an Urhobo man brought this video to my attention and asked for my opinion. I can imagine that for a Non-Yoruba and one who is taken to the Obingo Movement and Giringory Obi he must be very thrilled by the words of this fellow.
I have NEVER heard of him until 8.20pm this evening when he was brought to my attention and I never bothered to know anything about him beyond what he says in the attached video.
I thought of ignoring him but then the poor and innocent youths of today and some adults who may not know may listen to him and get themselves misled.
For this reason I will attend to him.
Our Elders say: Ìsọ̀rọ̀ nì gbèsì.
When a man talks he will get response accordingly and in like manner.
To start with this man suffers acute ignorance on the political realities of Nigeria since inception.
Here is a country FOUNDED ON ETHNICITY, BALANCED ON AMORPHOUS AND FRAUDULENT STRUCTURES AND RUNNING ON AN INIQUITOUS UNITARY CONSTITUTION WHICH IS PRACTICALLY IRREVERSIBLE and he dares to insinuate that Yoruba of all people are tribalists.
That’s DUMB!!!!
Are we supposed to just lay still like lame ducks, children of death or simply submit our necks so we may be slaughtered?
ÒPÒNÚ.
- First he claims that the Yoruba people threatened IGBOS in Lagos and also other Yoruba people who weren’t supporters of Asiwaju Bola Tinubu.
This is IGNORANCE blended with STUPIDITY.
That he is able to say these things freely just as other people are able to say to T’inubu’s face is a testimony that Bola Tinubu is a reasonable person and Yoruba people are quite sensible, liberal and complacent.
If he was knowledgeable he would have known that NO IGBO MAN would have dared to talk about Peter Obi and/or his leprous Labour Party in like manner in the whole of South-East, and beyond and amongst the Igbo people in the days leading to 2023 Elections. Such. Man won’t even dare it till this date.
They will MOB AND ELIMINATE him very quickly.
In Onitsha, a parish of Anglican church was BURNT DOWN for the simple reason that the majority Yoruba congregation in the church demanded to have Yoruba Priest from Lagos Hqtrs so they could enjoy Yoruba service in that part of Igbo land.
In that same Onitsha a Yoruba man who had lived there forever was contemplating the idea of contesting COUNCILORSHIP post on the ward he reside.
He hadn’t even begun campaigns when they got him mobbed and eliminated.
In Anambra again, the Igbo people of that Ojukwu senatorial district, including Igbo people from Ojukwu’s household, vehemently rejected the idea of Bianca Ojukwu contesting a Senate sit simply because her father, Chris Onoh was from the neighbouring Igbo land of Enugu State.
In that same Anambra in 2023, we saw very clearly on video men who were beaten to pulp because they were suspected to be APC voters.
In Asaba delta State, in broad daylight and in front of TV cameras, Fred Ajudua, the 419 exponent, PUBLICLY BARRED ALL NON-PDP voters from coming out.
In Abia, a man from Anambra was conferred an HONORARY MAYORSHIP of the city of Aba. It sparked a RIOT.
In Enugu State, an Igbo man whose GREATGRANDFATHER had migrated from a neighbouring Igbo town inside the Igbo state called Ebonyi was told in broad daylight that he couldn’t constest Guber elections in Enugu.
Somewhere in Imo State there was a serious problem when the congregation rejected an IGBO man who came from another state from becoming their Bishop in Imo State.
Inside Church o.
There are several examples.
Now, do you think a people who are this passionate and violent even amongst themselves would have tolerated a Yoruba community living amongst them to be deciding for them ANYTHING that has to do with the administration of their space??
NEVER!!!!
They have ALL their Councilors, HoA, HoR, Senators, Governors and Deputy-Governors TOTALLY from their land.
They have a complete team of IGBO men/women representing them in the NASS. 15 Senators+ at least 30 HoR for a geographical space smaller than the size of Oyo State.
You won’t dare to interfere.
But in Lagos, since 2003, probably long then but definitely since that year, IGBOS in their customary IGWEBUIKE philosophy have been delivering EN-BLOC VOTES in Lagos in such a way that at all times they stood ready and capable to DETERMINE who your leaders MUST from Councilors and Chairmen of LGAs, HoA, HoR, Senators and Governors/Deputy-Governors.
They have good share of those slots with you from your space which they add to theirs.
The VOTES of the Yoruba people will normally be split been at least two major parties. The Igbo votes is and has always been EN-BLOC. They vote as ONE COMPLETE ENTITY. So whatever the Yoruba people come out with, the considerably large Igbo population can simply alter the balance and then DICTATE to the side of their choice and exact a bargain POWER SHARING on your space.
There are many other ethnicities in Lagos and everyone voted according to his individual convictions.
Not so with the Igbos. They always vote as a tribe. They always want to live and run their markets as a colony of tribesmen right on your lands.
In Lagos State, these people overnight moved HUNDREDS OF THOUSANDS OF VOTERS from the East into Lagos and other SW States for the singular purpose of delivering EN-BLOC VOTES
They DON’T allow you to do that on their spaces in South-East. They DONT do that, infact they DON’T bother to register for voting anywhere in the Hausa-Fulani North. They WON’T try it in Benin of Edo people, in Warri of Urhobos, Itshekiris and Isoko. They WON’T do it in Efik, Ibibio or even Ijaw lands. They WON’T dare it in Kogi of Igala people or Benue of the Idoma, Tivi and Egede.
Those guys will run riot.
But they will do it freely in Lagos, Osun, Ekiti, Oyo. Now, Ondo and Ogun are almost a given; they simply take those two for granted.
In Ondo, Betty Akeredolu became so carelessly daring she simply installed her kinswoman as LGA Chairman.
On the day of the last Presidential Elections in Lagos State, it was so bad that in many polling units in Amuwo-odofin LGA the rascally Igbo youths brutally chased away Yoruba people who were mainly APC voters, including APC polling agents!!!
In Lagos.
If there is any PEOPLE in Lagos State and indeed the whole of South-West who were and still are threatened, then it is the Yoruba people.
The Igbos of the South-East are unmistakably staging the evil ideology ZIONISM on the territory of Lagos.
They do these things freely, literally slap the Yoruba people in the face because there are thousands of IGNORANT IDIOTS like this Mayegun character pontificating human rights and all other stupid stuff in this video.
Ọ̀BỌ – Monkey!!!!
I will come to address the main issues he raised.
