The claim that the igbo helped to develop Lagos
is hogwash. The major institutions of the south-
west were developed by the diligence, hard-
work, industry and sweat of the yoruba people.
This is a historical fact.

I agree with him. We built our city! Heck, my great great grandpops still has a Victorian building standing tall in Lagos named after my ancestral name - the pic of the building is in my parents' living room. Can't post the name on here!

Why's this man into conspiracy theory? He must be an Alex Jones fan.

Anyway, the Rothschild family don't control the world - the family is just part of the "blue bloods" and the owners of the world.

Nwa oguta: this mumu still dey a live?

please let's be matured and tact in our response. The mods appeal for moderation and respect for each others tribe should be on top priority. Together we can make it work......., https://www.nairaland.com/1383624/put-end-ethnic-rivalries-hostilities

Ok.

in this instance, disprove the points [if you can], not the personality.

Mods,please can we FP this to test run if your appeal and caveat have impacted on the tribal rascals on NL? Me inclusive

as per rothschild, surely he's heard of them before?

conspiracy things.

100% true he said the truth

now this tribalism is getting out of hand if FFk can tweet those thing meaning many big politician are on NL reading all tribal slur btw YORUBA nd IBO,this not gud for future generation
SHUN TRIBALISM pls.

The money generated from cocoa in ibadan used in making southwest what is it today.

The first university in nigeria.. ibadan

First TV station in Africa..... Ibadan

Do you guys want more?

emmydeep: All these things unfolding is The APC AGENDA. Ive always said it, all these APC toothless bulldogs are evil.
Nigeria Was never one, is never one and will never be one. YORUBAS ARE VERRY UNGRATEFUL, TALKING FROM EXPERIENCE.

can we please exercise some level of restraint and decorum please, we should be able to have discuss without resulting to ethnic bashing. We don't have to be slaves to our parents undoing.
Our generations ought to have gone past this tribal inequality. Let our old folks wallop in it, not us. We should be forging a vibrant United front that will have them hanging their heads in shame. I know the question of our ethnicity is inevitable, but we can address it devoid of hate and suspicion. I'm guilty of this too, but I'm turning a new leaf, after thinking it over deeply, and ironically reading OAM4Js and one other post for the need for us to bond with each other . There's a massive inter marriage between tribes nowadays than in any point of our history. Does this not mean anything to us? I've met some very very humble and honest Igbo men in my lifetime, so also the not so good. So is it with the yoruba man. A man is a man, A race is a race. Let's all foster in unity and face the major enemy, who are the political class, that are taking us to the gallows, piecemeal by piecemeal. Yes, let's direct our hatred and suspicion towards them, for truly, they are the enemy.
God Almighty bless the Nigerian youth and masses, AMEN.

Sorry not trying to insult ya ok but are you a descendant of the Creoles or Saros? If you are then there is a possibility you aren't yoruba. Sorry

I do not know where this "I developed Lagos" mentality came from.
We all know where the FCT Was when Lagos was the capital.
The small area around obalende where you have federal ministry buildings and many Lagos state institutions
The 19 state liaison offices in Victoria island. That is about it.
The rest were under the Lagos state government and to this day , the capital remain at IKEJA .
What did the federal government add to Lagos ,
1Third mainland bridge is the most notable which the state could have done without with proper planning.
2 the expansion of ikorodu road and the Lagos -badagry express way(federal roads)
3the unkempt national stadium ,national art theatre , festac town ,

Even these cannot be claimed as a privilege based on the sheer amount of revenues the federal government has been collecting in the SW.even many federal institutions like power sector are unviable without latching on to the revenues generated in the SW the southwest earns her keep. Only the SS contributes more for the federal government
The universities ,schools,Lagos island, hospital,Most of the roads,bridges,water plants,industrial estates were built by the AG

More Lagosians should wake up

sometimes this man blows hot and sometimes he blows cold like a woman in her menstrual cycle, he must be manic-depressive,........am not saying women are crazy shs but una sabi wetin i mean

so if someone says that Tpia being intelligent is a hog-wash.... you'll call that a "point"?

and if the person that said it has earlier stated emphatically (and believes) that goats can fly or that yorubas are brave... wouldn't that mean sensible and rational minds should not take anything he says seriously.... especially when making blanket statements?

Did I hear he is a lawyer? sure he knows (and any sensible or rational person) that the credibility of a witness or anyone in a court proceeding is always a factor in determining how serious to take the persons testimony...
