Mumu Talk...Na wa for this kind reasoning. So if another tribe praise person, e automatically make am useless? 😂
Olusegun Obasanjo don become military Head of State, civilian President, African statesman and one of the most influential Nigerians alive. Whether you like am or not, history don already write him name.
No be who praise person dey determine him value. Na wetin person achieve. Many people wey dey insult am today, their papa, family and generations never fit reach one percent of wetin Baba achieve for public service and international influence.
Make una stop this ethnic bitterness. Respect no get tribe.
All these insults, yet you still haven't answered the central question: where is the rule, traditional, legal, or cultural, that says a king forfeits dignity or legitimacy by celebrating his birthday outside his kingdom?
You're confusing your personal preference with an objective standard. The Obi's palace remains in Onitsha, his stool remains in Onitsha, and his authority remains with his people. A birthday venue doesn't relocate a throne.
If your argument depends on insults rather than evidence, perhaps it's not my comprehension that should concern you. Not every disagreement is a disgrace; sometimes it's just a reminder that opinions are not facts.
This isn't a wake-up call; it's a call to division.
Imagine if every ethnic group adopted your logic: "Our leaders only," "Don't sell land to outsiders," "Ban others from elective positions." Nigeria would cease to be a country and become 250 hostile enclaves.
You complain about discrimination and then advocate discrimination. You accuse others of rewriting history while trying to rewrite the Constitution, which guarantees every Nigerian the right to live, work, own property, and seek office anywhere in the country.
Lagos was not built by one ethnic group alone. Neither were Kano, Aba, Port Harcourt, Ibadan, or Onitsha. Nigerians from different backgrounds have contributed to every major city.
If your idea of protecting Yoruba interests requires hatred, exclusion, and ethnic scorekeeping, then you've mistaken bigotry for patriotism. Strong cultures don't fear coexistence; insecure minds do.
YORUBAS, ARE YOU NOW AWAKE?
My Brothers and Sisters,
It is time to become more conscious and more intentional about protecting our interests.
Yibo , Igbo , Ibo ARE:
- Changing our history to suit their narrative.
- Calling us cowards simply because we are peaceful and accommodating.
- Seeking to dominate our political space in ways that would not be tolerated in their own regions.
- Whitewashing individuals they once criticized, simply to advance political ambitions and gain Power (PETER OBI)
- Calling us tenants in our own land because we welcome others and do not discriminate in property ownership like they do.
Claiming they developed Lagos, while ignoring the contributions and sacrifices of the indigenous people, they do the minor jobs , check the companies contributing to Lagos largely, they are not there.
- Flooding our markets with fake and substandard products.
Enough is enough.
We must:
- Protect our history and heritage.
- Defend our interests and identity.
- Ensure our voices are heard in matters affecting our communities.
- Challenge false narratives about our people and our history.
- Stop being passive when our interests are undermined.
- Remain vigilant, united, and engaged in shaping our future.
Say NO to -
Them leading our markets
Yoruba Leaders Only
Them from participating in Elective Positions
Until a Yoruba man becomes Governor in Anambra, Don’t compete for any post here.
Don’t Sell Our Right Them.
Stop Being Nice
They don’t like You..
YORUBA, WAKE UP!
This is a wake-up call.
Add yours!!!
This isn't a wake-up call; it's a call to division.

Just look at what you've reduced your music career to. This is the same Falz who once had the industry at his feet, whose collaborations helped elevate other artists, and whose songs enjoyed massive airplay across the country. Today, however, relevance seems to arrive only when politics is involved.
The last time your music generated any significant buzz was during the 2023 elections when you released a politically charged song targeting the then INEC Chairman, Mahmood Yakubu. Since then, your career appears to have retreated into its shell like a snail avoiding daylight.
Three years have passed. In that same period, artists like Olamide, Asake, Davido, and Wizkid have consistently released projects, dominated charts, and kept their names alive through music rather than political commentary.
Yet here you are again, returning to the microphone not with a hit record, but with another politically motivated performance. At some point, you have to ask yourself a difficult question, are you still chasing a music career, or are you simply borrowing politics to stay relevant?
Because from where many are standing, it increasingly looks like music has already moved on without you.
You know get sense? Na your own preference be that, no be tradition or law. Person fit celebrate birthday anywhere and still love and respect him people. Obi of Onitsha palace never comot from Onitsha because him cut cake for Lagos.
And how you take jump from birthday venue reach "he no rate una"? Na wa. If person celebrate wedding, burial or conference for another state, e mean say he no value him people too?
No be every matter dem dey turn to ethnic competition. Make una calm down. Cake no dey relocate throne.
Who said the Obi of Onitsha is not a king? He is a king. The question is, since when did being a king mean you lose the freedom to travel or celebrate a birthday outside your domain?
His palace is still in Onitsha, his title is still Obi of Onitsha, and his authority is still derived from his people. A birthday venue doesn't revoke a throne.
You're arguing against a position nobody made. That's not debate; that's shadowboxing.
Cant you comprehend simple english. You're arguing with something I never said. Nobody said Igbos in Lagos are "diaspora" in the international sense. The point was that people can live, work, and thrive outside their ancestral homeland without losing their identity or connection to their roots.
That's true for Igbos in Lagos, Yorubas in Abuja, Hausas in Port Harcourt, or Nigerians abroad. Mobility doesn't erase identity.
So before calling people shameful, try reading to understand rather than reading to react. Debating a point nobody made only makes you look confused.
Attendance at events is not a blood oath. People decline invitations for countless reasons, and not attending one conference doesn't erase relationships or amount to disrespect for an entire people.
What's worrying is how quickly you moved from discussing an event to "noting people down for future reference." That's exactly the kind of ethnic scorekeeping that keeps Nigeria divided.
Yoruba and Igbo relations are bigger than social media grievances and guest lists. Let's debate policies and leadership, not turn every invitation and birthday into an ethnic conflict. Nigeria has enough problems already without manufacturing new ones.
Omotonsore now this is the kind of conversation we should be having. Nigeria building value-added industries, creating jobs, and positioning itself for future technologies is worth discussing and debating.
Not endless ethnic insults and bigotry over where someone celebrated a birthday. We need more conversations about economic development, education, security, and innovation, not tribal stereotypes and outrage.
Let's argue policies and ideas, not demonize people. Nigeria has bigger problems to solve and bigger opportunities to seize.
A few days ago, the President and the FCT Minister presented 40 houses to Court of Appeal judges as a goodwill gesture. As much as this is a commendable initiative, I would like to respectfully appeal to the President and the Minister to consider extending similar gestures to other groups who have dedicated their lives to serving our nation.
I am referring to retired police officers, lecturers, teachers, principals, and especially doctors—men and women who have sacrificed so much for Nigeria and contributed immensely to nation-building.
If this kind of support can be extended to them, it would not only improve their welfare but also boost morale and encourage a greater spirit of service among those currently serving.
From reports, billions of naira were invested in the housing project for the judges. While I acknowledge that the judges deserve recognition and support, I believe it would be even more impactful if similar investments were made across other critical sectors.
This is simply my opinion. I am not suggesting that the Court of Appeal judges do not deserve these houses—they absolutely do. I only believe that the government should broaden such interventions to include other public servants who have also contributed significantly to our country’s development.
Some Nigerians have raised concerns and speculated about the motives behind the gesture, with some even suggesting it could be an attempt to influence the judiciary. Personally, I do not subscribe to that view. However, expanding such initiatives to other sectors would help eliminate suspicion and demonstrate that the government values all who serve the nation.
Nigeria will be better when we recognize and reward service across every sector, not just a few.
