That statement is actually from Agodi emperor Attack dogs, I don’t have anything against Mr Bimbo until today, that action is shameful and unacceptable, what do they need? Oyo have the population, they don’t need any immigrants to win elections if they do their homework….
“DON’T BRING TRIBALISM INTO OYO STATE ,WE ARE ONE.”
Yet Chinua Achebe placed these revealing words in the mouth of an elderly Umuofian during a kola-nut prayer at an Umuofia Progressive Union meeting in Lagos:
“We are strangers in this land. When the good comes, let’s have our share; but when the bad comes, let it go to the landowners, for it is they who know which gods to appease.”
Unity cannot be a slogan invoked only when it is convenient. You cannot demand a share of a land’s opportunities and prosperity, yet accuse its indigenous people of tribalism whenever they defend their history, dignity and legitimate interests.
