**PM NEWS OCTOBER 1994**
A Yoruba man clearly won the presidential election: Chief Abiola.
Following his victory, Ojukwu “ an igbo man “ called for Abiola to be punished, stating, “H@ng Abiola.”
What ultimately happened? Abiola was assassin@ted and never became president.
Arthur Nzeribe, another Igbo man, quickly paid a newspaper to publish the headline “NO TO YORUBA PRESIDENCY.”
During the Abacha regime, Ojukwu accepted money from Abacha and traveled the globe, drumming up support for the regime. In one of his speeches in Washington, D.C., he praised Abacha highly and claimed that the annulment of June 12 and the continuous incarceration of Abiola were good things, saying it would teach the Yorubas a lesson. He also supported the ex£cution of Ken Saro-Wiwa, asserting that it was payback time.
Ojukwu had previously gone to war with the North but later returned to ally with them and campaigned for Northern candidates.
These same individuals label others as “Fulani sl@ves,” yet they have aligned with the Fulanis more than any other ethnic group in Nigeria. When they feel betrayed, they return to blaming the Yorubas.
Every time the Yorubas have chosen a candidate, the Igbos have voted against them. They might say, “Oh, we voted for Obasanjo!”—but Obasanjo was the Northerners’ choice at the time. Clearly, the presidential race was visibly between two Yoruba men “ Obasanjo and Falae” ; Obasanjo was also the Igbos' choice within the party, the PDP, while Falae was the Yoruba choice. Igbos voted against the Yoruba choice and opted for the Northerner's candidate.
Many of us remember the damage that Igbos have inflicted on the Yorubas, which continues to this day.
Yorubas have remained quiet for years. We do not speak out; we simply go about our lives and still welcome you with open arms, despite all that has happened. You Igbos were responsible for the cold-blooded k:lling of the first Premier of Yoruba land, Akintola, in Ibadan. Yet, to this day, Yorubas have not reacted or treated you differently.
There have been various riots in the North between Hausas and Igbos, yet nothing like that has ever occurred between the Yorubas and Igbos because we are peaceful people.
Nonetheless, you continue to commit all sorts of crimes in Yoruba land—something Yorubas would never do in Igbo land. When we voice our complaints, you try to use tribalism as a bully tactic to silence us.
Now, because a Yoruba man has finally become president—a position the Igbos fought hard to prevent—you cannot accept the outcome. You started attacking Yoruba monarchs, leaders, culture, and heritage. For the first time, Yorubas are done being quiet and have started to respond with equal intensity.
Now you cannot handle it, reverting to playing the victim card: “Oh, they are bigots and tribalists.”
All that gaslighting won’t work anymore!
Some of us still REMEMBER!!!!!
