In this era of political rumor mongering, it is gaining currency that a repeat of what the Yorubas know how to do best – BETRAYAL, is in the offing!
Who would have expected Yemi Osinbajo to have the audacity to contest against the man who God used to elevate him to the apex of political Eminence ?
Yemi was a brilliant Professor of law, no doubt. Tinubu, good at identifying egg heads to man political positions, brought him from a poor position of a Law Lecturer at the University of lagos to become Honourable Attorney-General and Commissioner of Justice in Lagos State for Eight years.
When Tinubu was told to bring a candidate for the position of Vice President to Buhari, he didn’t think twice before nominating Yemi Osinbajo to the coveted office.
It is known in political circles that, Tinubu has never masqueraded his greatest ambition, which is to become the President of the most respectable and largest nation in Africa, and take Nigeria to greater heights, in spite of our malfeasance and corrupt tendencies that has no semblance or equal in the whole world. So, there was a gentleman’s agreement that Tinubu would get automatic nomination in APC to slug it out with whoever is nominated by PDP. But no sooner Osinbajo became the number two citizen than the rumour mill had it that he had surreptitiously set up committees to plot the graph towards stabbing Tinubu, his boss, in the back and getting Tinubu out of the way for him to succeed Buhari, whose political taciturnity is legendary. It is the traitorous Yoruba blood of betrayal that is being manifested in Osinbajo.
The Are ona Kakanfo under Alaafin Aole , Afonja was the first traitor in Yoruba history. He was sent to Ilorin by the Alaafin to superintend over the Yoruba Town.
He betrayed Alaafin by conspiring with Alimi the Fulani cleric from Sokoto who made Ilorin his permanent home of domicility to independently take over the rulership of Oyo without taking instructions from the Alaafin. The Fulanis are masters of political and military intrigue. They encouraged him to disband the Yoruba soldiers under Afonja because they can not be trusted when it comes to their unbreakable loyalty to Alaafin but they promised him protection of the highest pedestal. No sooner the Yoruba warriors were disbanded the Fulanis killed Afonja and took over the rulership of Ilorin till today. Samuel Ladoke Akintola also betrayed the greatest Yoruba man in contemporary history, Chief Obafemi Awolowo by aligning with the Sardauna of Sokoto’s NPC and abandoning his mentor, the great and cerebral Obafemi Awolowo.
It was the Yoruba traitors led by Olusegun Obasanjo of the Egba extraction that conspired with IBB to annul the most transparent election in Nigerian history, which was won by Chief MKO Abiola, another Egba man, in 1993.
Obasanjo even had the effrontery to make a stupid proclamation that ABIOLA IS NOT THE MESSIAH NIGERIA WAS LOOKING FOR. Is, he, Obasanjo the messiah? He ended up being one of the most tyrannical, despotic and wicked men ever to rule Nigeria. He not only betrayed Abiola but betrayed the Yoruba race.
With a satanic synergy with the Americans Abiola was poisoned in detention and another man who died recently, an Egba man for that matter, Chief Earnest Sonekan was deceived by IBB to take over as interim President.
It was a plot by the Northern cabal to return power back to the North.
Abacha eventually sacked Sonekan and took over the rulership of the country. He was brutal and inhuman in all its ramifications.
That is the kind of treachery being unmasked by Osinbajo and his cohorts like Fayemi another Tinubu’s boy who Tinubu brought from the diaspora to become the Governor of Ekiti State and later, a Minister of the Federal Republic of Nigeria. As we are writing, Ibikunle Amosun, erstwhile Governor of Ogun State, another man assisted by Tinubu to taste power as Governor of Ogun State for eight years would soon declare his ambition, being supported by the Northern Cabal in Buhari’s government, thinking Tinubu is too vivacious, brilliant, intelligent and irrepressible that they would not be able to manipulate him
By the grace of God, the Yorubas are determined to torpedo their unwholesome ambition of use and dump. As SLA Akintola betrayed the Yoruba cause and became a villain, Osinbajo and others would become lepers in the Yoruba Community, for being traitors of Yoruba cause.
We would support Tinubu as the candidate of APC with all the energy at our disposal.
Since we are not members of any political party but only interested in the progress of the Yoruba race, for the umpteen time we are making a clarion call on Ayodele Fayose and Bode George to contest the primary election in PDP so that two Yorubas will face each other and at the end of the day we would have a Yoruba President come 2023.
We appreciate the efforts of those making Campaign Posters and pasting in strategic positions all over the country and describing Yemi Osinbajo of what he is,
‘A TRAITOR’
It was the treachery of Yorubas that scuttled Nigeria’s Democracy in the First Republic. Let us learn from history.
But where is AFENIFERE in this quandary? This is a time Pa Ayo Adebanjo and the leadership of Afenifere should lend their voices and let all Yorubas speak in one tone. In the interest of Yoruba race, they should rally support for the candidature of Asiwaju Bola Ahmed Tinubu.
The silence of the leadership of Afenifere at this time in the history of Yoruba race reeks of suspicion.
This is a clarion call to all Yorubas to call the traitors within us to order. Let us all unite and shun treachery.
Yorubas are very proverbial
They say:
‘A TRAITOR MAY HAVE STUPENDOUS WEALTH;
A TRAITOR MAY HAVE MANY CHILDREN;
BUT THE LIFE OF A TRAITOR ENDS IN DISASTER’
Yoruba, e ro’nu.
