whitecat007: Foolish ibo poster! Why didn't you use Onitsha or Enugu as examples? Just because your ancestors lived in forest should not blind you from reality that Yoruba lived and still live More in big towns, that's is the reason you see the biggest cities in SW and none of SE states is larger than a local government in SW. I really hope your obsession will let you open your eyes and see that Lagos is some people's hometown just like Enugu, Owerri among others, and must be respected. My maternal family trace their root to atleast 7 generations in Lagos. Which new home town are you going to create for people like this?



Hope u ain't referring to me

It haff tey'd o! Chai.

The last visit I made to my hometown was in 2007. I have few relatives there at present. It's a fine place though: could see myself staying there on vacation in the not too distant future.

Who else wrote the epistle without stating the bush you came from? of course! I'm so referring to you! I will not sit back and let you slippery slime take a swipe at Lagos at every chance you get. Lagos is mine to protect and yours to obsess.

Kalvan: Only Our "Jewish" ibo brothers don't know their hometown. Too busy trying to claim another man's land.

Do you have to derail the topic with your idiocy?whether you like it or not our Igbo brothers are good examples worthy of emulation, an average Igbo man visits his hometown at least once in a year with his family, he builds his first house there before any other place but we *omo oduduwa* we tend to forget our root once we find peace anywhere even if it is sambisa forest. Pls my brother let's stop this tribal war and respect each other,OMI IYA DUN.

Nice try at Yoruba proverbs but misses! I don't have a village, maybe you can make one up for me. You still haven't told us where you are from, is it because it won't sound like where people would love to move to? Both of my parents are from places with bells and whistles with a last name that will make you wish you are me. You can tattoo that.

Why should I visit home town when I don't have any business there! Or is there any importance of going home regularly?

Visiting your hometown is good for some, bad for others.

You need to find out what kind of hometown you have before visiting all willy nilly. For some , going to your hometown means you will meet your maker, while for others, it is not so.


Imo, it is wrong to condemn people for not visiting their hometown when you do not know their reason for not doing do. Not to mention whose business is it if people visit their hometown or not.


Like I pointed out before, watch the episode of married with children where they visited their hometown, and give feedback on that.

Ancestral enemies are real, likewise haters are also real. The whys and wherefores of why anyone decides to hate, are irrelevant. Just accept hatred as a fact.


For those whose hometowns welcome them wholeheartedly, good for you, nothing wrong with that.

and regardless if you visit often or not, just consider yourself a diasporan towns-person of wherever you're from, if you want.

And btw, folks are just too nosy nowadays, always in business that doesn't concern them. Not referring to this thread alone.
