THE YORUBA:A PEOPLE MARCHING TOWARDS ANNIHILATION By Niyi Oyedele

Through a rare combination of historical hatred, erosion, landlockedness, and activities of IPOB Unknown Gunmen, the Igbos have made their lands uninhabitable. In the same vein, through a combination of religious extremism and intolerance, the activities of Fulani herdsmen and Boko Haram, the Fulani have “secured” the exclusive preserve of their own area.

So to the ignorant and gullible Yorubaland who contribute over 60% of the GDP, and are willing to allow their youths to be unemployed and their girls become “olosho” in order to be be christened as liberals they must relocate.

Sooner than later, Yoruba will become minorities in their own land. And since democracy is a game of numbers, and since Yorubaland has been decimated by a massive emigration to Europe and America, it is a matter of time before Yoruba is being ruled by foreigners and eventually become hewers of wood and drawers of water on their own land.

By then, it will be too late!

It is so sad that even a Yoruba governor of a prominent state is willing to allocate contracts to people of Igbo extraction.

Yet this was the same Governor that the Igbos almost ran out of office. It is the same state that the Igbos asked for five commissioner slots in exchange for support at the previous election. This is what even the Bible in Deuteronomy 28: 43-45 posited when it says:
“Foreigners who live in your land will gain more and more power, while you gradually lose yours. They will have money money to lend you, but you will have none to lend them. In the end they will be your leaders”.

Rather for my people to RONU, they are busy rejoicing at the appointments of Yoruba to “juicy” cabinet positions. As commendable as these appointments may be, I often ask myself, how do these appointments benefit the Yoruba. Was it through appointments that Awolowo created the best economy in Africa that benefited Yoruba of all ages and generations?

To make matters worse, these appointments will be reversed without a moment’s notice by the Fulani when power is eventually transferred to them. Maybe Dwight Eisenhower was right after all; *“a people that values its privileges above its principles soon loses both”.*
