You can’t encourage people to preserve culture and tradition and still want them to erode it. Sallah happens every year. So is Christmas. No matter the situation. The world still celebrate them annually. You can call out the government without attacking people’s tradition. If you didn’t ask for Sallah or Christmas to stop, why are you asking for Ojude Oba, a single day event, to stop. It is performative at best.
Asking for a halt won’t fix anything if the government doesn’t step up to beef up national security. It’s like taking panadol for high blood pressure. The event has been happening since 19th century specifically to the ijebus. This is one of the ills of the internet. The viral sensation the event has acquired in recent years will definitely be met with criticism at some point.
He got Location (gumbody) and Anybody (solo) with 100M+ Spotify streams in 2019.
He got Own It (gumbody) and Real Life (lead) + 23 (solo) in 2020 😂
In 2021 where he got Loved By You (gumbody), he still had Kilometre (solo) 😂
You purposely omitted 2022 cos he literally got 3 solo songs with +100M streams on Spotify that year (Last Last, Alone and It's Plenty) 😂😂 Why you no put am lol
In 2023 when he got Talibans II (gumbody), he still got City Boys (solo) with almost 300M streams 😂
In 2024 when he got WE PRAY (gumbody), he still had Higher (solo) that's heading to 100M streams right now 😂
In 2025 when he got WGFT (gumbody), he also had TaTaTa (lead) and Love (solo).
He hasn't dropped a single this year yet and he has already bagged a global hit.
Notice how he's doing well all round? 😂 He does crazy numbers on features and still does crazy numbers on his own songs too. Now I dare you to recreate for Wizkid, let's see who is actually relying on other artists and gumbody here 😂😂
Slandered on release, called a flop, said the grammys were bought and lobbied, said it had no hits
6 years later the album is still making impact and growing by the day.
This will go down in history as one of the few afrobeat classics of the 2020s
If you want to preach against tribalism in Nigeria, use your state as an example.
Stop saying "but Yoruba can contest in US". instead, say "but YORUBA can contest in anambra"..
Use your fucking state as an example of how we should be liberal and not be tribalistic!!
@mkayswagooo Person whey be fool😹
Them no care about their welfare or their pikin one bit, na how dem wan use ‘Islam’ as excuse to kpai people dem go dey find😹
E no rate us south west Muslims, e think say I rate am too😹😹
You think we care about your rating?
The kind of Islam you practice over there that gave birth to insurgents and terrorists.
The one your politicians are weaponizing to keep you guys poor while stealing your wealth for demselves?
You think we’ll care about that kind of rating?😹
Muslims from Lagos, Ogun, Ekiti and Ondo state, I dont rate them
I know in recent times, Lagos been have greater number of salafis but their lifestyle there mehn. And Ogun with the like of Usdsth Qamorudeen Yunus and Ondo with Sheik Idris Sekoni.
Most others are just .....
In Akure, Olusegun Mimiko built the Mother and Child Hospital for pregnant women. He also introduced a ₦100,000 stipend for every pregnant woman who used the hospital.
Guess what? This service was not restricted to indigenes of Ondo State alone. Women travelled from places like Enugu State and Kaduna State to give birth in Ondo State. This was back in 2012.
For as long as I can remember, every state in the South West region has accommodated indigenes from other regions. They have also won elective positions in the South-West and are allowed to live and operate freely. Why are we still the ones being asked to give more? What more can we possibly give? This is preposterous.
If you want to start this activism please do not direct it towards the Yorubas, we are the most liberal region in the country, direct your angst towards other regions who are very rigid with non indigenous people.
I remember 2023, when I had this nasty fallout w my Dad.
Cos of that he didn’t send allowee for months and I didn’t bulge.
Mum persuaded me to beg but I refused.
6 months after, my savings and side hustle tanked, and i was barely eating a meal per day.
I called w tears o😭😭

Ethnic bigotry she's there

I wonder how the husband she's been hiding copes with her.
The Yorùbá men directing the film are grandsons of retired Brigadier-General Godwin Alabi-Isama, former Chief of Staff of the Nigerian Army’s 3rd Marine Commando Division during the Biafra War, where he played a central strategic role in the federal war effort and survived Biafra himself.
The documentary will be released on June 1. Until then, you can turn to Alabi-Isama’s book, a better historically grounded account of the war than Chimamanda Adichie’s Half Of A Yellow Sun, which remains a work of historical fiction.
The era of Radio Biafra propaganda is long over.
