Yoruba Nation: ‘Mugubriosity’ in Secession? -By Isaiah Ogedegbe
Following her audacious declaration, there was later an unexpected attack by a set of armed men on the Oyo State government secretariat.
“The fake nationalists were exhibiting traces of the mental disease called delusion of grandeur, a mental illness characterized by a great divergence from reality”. – Wole Olaoye
In a fit of ‘mugubriosity’ (my newly coined word for foolishness), Late Chief MKO Abiola’s widow, Modupe Onitiri-Abiola, who seems to have a propensity for clout chasing, recently challenged Constituted Authority when she broadcast a video of herself declaring the creation of a Democratic Republic of the Yoruba, to the consternation of some Yoruba Nation leaders and other patriotic citizens of the country.
