Nigeria has three major ethnic nationalities: 1. The Yoruba Nation with Edo and Itsekiri as kith and kin. 2. The Hausa Nation with Fulani immigrant relatives. 3. The Ibo Nation. Of these three nations, only the Yoruba is yet to plan a coup or truncate democracy in Nigeria. Yoruba is also the economic backbone of Nigeria and has the highest population of the country. Major General Johnson Thomas Aguiyi-Ironsi, an Ibo, truncated independent Nigerias first constitution that established a parliamentary democracy with executive power vested in a Prime Minister and each of Nigerias three constitutes unit; Western, Eastern and Northern regions also with its own government and Premier in 1966. Major General Muhammadu Buhari, a Hausa/Fulani, truncated democracy that overthrew civilian President Shehu Shagari on December 31, 1983. It is 31 years ago today. These two individuals: 1. Major General Aguiyi-Ironsi 2. Major General Muhammadu Buhari, were the only Nigerians to have committed a treasonable felony. The first was killed within six months. The latter, Jihadist Buhari wants to rule over Nigeria in 2015, that would be 32 years after he truncated democracy. He must be shamed! #ThinkYorubaFirst #StandWithJonathan #RejectBuhari
