Yoruba-Restructuring-Secession-Nigeria

I read his Punch interview. IMO, he espouses extremist yet thought-provoking views. I guess every ethnicity will have its own Grandson-type individuals. A lot of our people are already aware of the problems he talked about, but there's no consensus on the way forward. How do we address these issues? Our politicians across the political divide obviously don't see the need for a confrontational approach against the hausa-fulani dominated establishment in rectifying the problems/issues he raised.

I think that generally, our folks are evidently just not that motivated (for various reasons) to see the status quo changed, at least for now. Consequently, he's like a 'one-man army' coz I don't see most Yorubas supporting his methods. But at the same time I also don't see how anyone can gag him, nor why he should be gagged in a Nigeria where every other tribe is dishing out 'ultimatums' like akara. The reality of the social media age we live in makes it almost impossible to gag individuals and groups like Kanu, Grandson, the Arewa Youths, the Niger Delta militants, Boko Haram, etc, from expressing themselves, irrespective of their extremist tendencies. 

He has always raised vital points from day 1 but he messes it up at the end with his psycho ideas. It was on his page I first realized Lagos state govt isn't getting any percentage of her ports revenues

Which article are you referring to? Hope you're not confusing Ago Adebanjo with that Adeyinka Adebayo chap?

Sorry to say, but the question that interviewer asked at the end was really stupid! Is she trying to say that people above a certain age forfeit their right to have an opinion? What is this curious Nigerian obsession with "youths" (most of whom are far from young) anyway?

Here's a link to where I uploaded it at but doesn't seem to work when inserted here: ibb.co/dirVXQ

How were you able to ascertain their religion? 

Egbon mi, it breaks the heart to see how Yoruba folks are one Nigeria proponents and failing to see how the Nigerian project has short-changed us has a people for decades. I fear a regional system or Yoruba state may fail or never come into fruition considering how lopsided the proportions are -- in favour of pro-Nigeria Yaribas.

I agree, too many are not conscious and also, too many have allowed religion <Islam & Christianity> blind them to the richness of their own culture and how it can contribute towards creating a Yoruba oriented system. At least I think awon Baba Awo's set, despite being schooled abroad, were in tune with Yoruba culture and that influenced the socio political drive for the people oriented government of that day.
