The rates of resources taken from Yorubaland to develop non-Yoruba regions in Nigeria remain alarmingly high. Yet, the Yoruba people persist, facing barriers, but always maintaining their determination to develop at their own pace. This is why the first and most compelling reason for advocating for the Commonwealth of the Yoruba Kingdom or the Oduduwa Republic is that the people of Yorubaland not only want but truly deserve democracy. Their will is powerful, clear, and accurate whenever an opinion is voiced. It has been expressed with remarkable calm and consistency over decades and has grown stronger with time. This would be reason enough for the change in a responsive and effective democracy.
