My name is Adeyinka. I am from Ondo State, Nigeria. The above definite and clear expression can simply come from the mind of an unconscious slave. Nigeria as an identity was created and imposed by the British colonial thugs from England. Ondo State as a state of origin was created and imposed by the Hausa/Fulani immigrant thugs from Fouta Djallon. When you let foreigners define you, you are nothing but a slave. The name Yoruba Country appeared in a book titled Seventeen Years in The Yoruba Country written in 1851, 33 years short of the Berlin Conference of 1884-85 that triggered the enslavement of once a proud Yoruba civilization and 63 years prior to the British conquest and amalgamation of the different ethnic nationalities that make up the present day Nigeria in 1914. The British colonial thugs even recognized Yoruba as a Country and grouped all its tribes together as an autonomous region when they left Nigeria in 1960. However, the Yoruba Country, including Ilorin and Kabba, was quickly split into five states of Lagos, Ogun, Ondo and Kwara by the Gambari, and each of them was further split into Osun, Ekiti and Kogi states with others still part of Edo and Delta States without any regard to congruent boundaries nor tribal affinities in many instances. We called the British people colonialists and often remain very wary of their actions. How come we do not call the Fulani like Buhari, Atiku and their Emirs colonialists too, but want them to come and rule over the Yoruba again? I am not a Nigerian or from Ondo State. These are identities created and imposed by criminal thugs who are alien to the Yoruba culture, language, tradition, religious beliefs and norms and value system. I have four grandparents and they were from Akoko, Remo, Ondo and Egba. I am therefore a Yoruba citizen, but have lived most of life in Ibadan. Ibadan is my place of residency as a Yoruba. I reject the imposition of Ondo State as my state of origin as dictated by the Gambari. My nationality is not Nigerian but Yoruba. We cannot continue to claim that we are the most educated race out of Africa and act like stupid people. The above further explains why the Yoruba must keep the Gambari out of the Presidency of Nigeria forever. Already we have been divided along religion line by the Gambari over the 2015 Presidential Election, the same way they divided us along the state of origin. Use your brain power, the Yoruba Youths. The Yoruba are the economic backbone of Nigeria. For every N100.00 the Federal Government of Nigeria spends, the Yoruba contributes N49.00. The only way we can take charge of the money we contribute to the Federal Government is for Fashola to be the Presidential candidate of the APC. In the absence of Fashola as the APC Presidential candidate... four more years for President Jonathan. #ThinkYorubaFirst
