Kperogi Reverses Himself on Yorubanisation of NNPC (17418 Views)
Komu1048(m): 12:44pm On Jan 05 |
blabulu2000: Even though you are very right, and my brother a corp member was beating black n blue and his phone stolen in Ago palace(Lagos) by the igbo just because of P.O. He didn't do anything ooo. But You people only switch to Yorubas when u need Yoruba for your personal gain, when it's time to enjoy do you also reason your kinsmen. Are we not facing the same hardship in Lagos. If P.O enters today some Yorubas n Hausa will benefit from his govt more than some Core igbo tribe. I've risen above all this sentiment. Let's see y we need to vote Tinubu don't tell me because he is Yoruba |

albert2512:You're not from Okun. We have different dialects, but that doesn't stop us from being Yoruba. Ekiti, Egba, Ondo, Ijebu, Ijesha are distinct Yoruba dialects, different from the modified Oyo dialect we all speak generally. Are Ekiti people non Yorubas according to your foolish logic? 2 Likes |

What kind of divisive jingoism is this? There is no difference between you and El-Rufai then! "We want a better Nigeria but that is if my brother is leading it. If he is not then Nigeria can go to hell"... this mindset has held us down as a nation and would continue until we do away with it. Kpete... whatever you are one of Nigeria's problems |

albert2512: The Okuns(A Yoruba sub-ethnic group) have their own own dialect same way other Yoruba sub-ethnic groups like the Ijebus, Egbas, Ekitis, Ijesas have theirs.. A dialect is a genre of a language.. If you go to England, different parts have their own dialects same way the Enugu dialect of the Igbos might be different from Anambra people.. It does not invalidate the fact that the Okuns migrated from ancient Ile-Ife just like most Yoruba sub-ethnic groups to the present day Kogi State. In fact, there is a town called Iffe(coined from the word Ile-Ife but spelt with the double "f"...) in Okun land. Please stop displaying your ignorance in the public space. 1 Like |

Komu1048: Brenbentondiaz: Stop hitting your head against the wall like a slowpoke. You cannot know his tribe more than him. Okun is not Yoruba and you are still exposing your ignorance instead of doing your research. Igalas have some similarities with Yoruba but that does not mean they are Yorubas. |

d142475: Stop being daft. Kwara is among the 19 northern states and have always gone along with northerners. What people like you fail to educate yourselves about the north is that you assume every northerner must be a Hausa person. An average northerner knows that the north is composed of several dialects and tribes. |

iwaeda: Just say the truth Prof, I am sure those planning to remove our beloved President caution you not to spoil their target of Northern minority votes as usual, the one North myth when they are desperately looking for power. The reality is that there is nothing like 19 Northern state anymore, the middle belt has resurrected a long time ago and has come to stay, 8 years of killings and land grabbing didn't produce the desire results for the caliphate, this country must move forward for the benefit of all. We have forgiving you but trust me we will never be used again for the caliphate agenda only to be 2nd class citizens of the North |

Alas,he has crawled out of his shell to speak the truth! Imagine - how can El- Rufai be against Buhari - Fulani Vs Fulani,is that possible, even though they are Minority but having tasted Power,they just Push the Hausas away! Toh! |

Wrote an epistle and ended up explaining nothing ![]() ![]() Meanwhile.. "Bayo Ojulari, who is rumored to be Tinubu’s pick to succeed Mele Kyari as head of the NNPC, is not merely a Yoruba man but a Yoruba northerner from southern Kwara State. This distinction fundamentally alters the narrative". Afamed,helinues and other Apcheat minions should come and explain this one o ![]() ![]() ![]() |

numericalguy: Those guys are right. You are the one that should try and get some education. If I decided to speak my town dialect to an Oyo man, he won't have a clue about what I'm talking about until I interpret to him in central Yoruba language. My town is in Ondo state and we are Yoruba 💯. All Okun people identify as Yorubas but some trolls on NL that haven't been to Kogi West like to cause confusion. 4 Likes 1 Share |

numericalguy: Mumu what is his tribe, FYI I am also an Okun man, Okun is still under Yoruba. There is no single Okun name that doesn't have its root in Yoruba even the Okun/Owe dialect. It's like someone saying I am Ijesha I am not Yoruba or I am Ijebu I am not Yoruba. Fools like you are finding it difficult while Yoruba is so great n u r finding loopholes upandan. Instead of you to learn, you're displaying ur inherited ignorance. oloriburuku 5 Likes |

iwaeda:Indeed, Farooq MUST learn to do his proper research and due diligence next time so that he doesn't have to go back on his words after making wild or unfounded claims in his articles. Farooq has to write his articles after wide consultations and FACT checks have been concluded, then wait for at least 3 days before sending his posts out for publication online and offline. Give it up for Reno Omokri. A significant number of articles Reno writes and posts are fact-checked and clearly correspond to my own body of knowledge over the decades. Where Reno has gone a little off the trail, then he gets duly corrected on his online platforms with alternative facts. There's NO time for absolute nonsense here. Period. 1 Like 1 Share |

Lithiumite: Judolisco: Tflex01: That is why I laugh when ignoramuses talk the way you do. Having similarities among tribes does not mean you belong in that tribe. Try and expand your knowledge a little bit I know loads of Igalas and Ibiras that bear Yoruba names, does that make them Yorubas? I know Igalas that bear hausa names, does that make them Hausas? I know Igalas that bear Igbo names, does that make them Igbos? 1 Like |
