Chai! see what an Oba has caused now! *grabs mic*...*in JEGA's Voice* Oba please let us be careful of what we say or do so that we do not disrupt a process that has ended peacefully

Oduduwaboy:

Those statements by the Ndigbo & the Ndigbo-Yoruba Agbaje are very inflammatory ...hope wé wont have à lagos pogrom very soon no matter who wins .

Maccoy1:
People should stop managing this issue, we should look at it plainly...when PEJ said something about stoning anyone who wanted change, everyone turned against it, even i was angry at her statement...AMBO will surely loose in lagos state

babamadiba:
Anyway, I stumbled on this and feel it's worth sharing. COPIED: Dear Lagosian, Yoruba are very decent and reasonable people.No tribe will entertain On their Land what is going on in Lagos. We all condemn the statement of OBA AKIOLU.But let us ask ourselves one important question,WHY IS OBA AKIOLU ANGRY WITH IGBOS? My answers are: (1), I will elevate Eze Ndigbo to the status of OBA AKIOLU of Lagos- jimi Agbaje. (2), igbo will determine who rules Lagos- Ifeanyi Ubah. (3), Lagos is no man's Land- Ifeanyi Ubah during Tan Campaign. (4), Igbo developed and controlled Lagos- Jimi Agbaje. (5), We must produce the next deputy Governor of Lagos- Eze Ndigbo. My Questions to IGBOS. (1) Can Obi of Onitsha accepts all the above mentioned? (2) can Emir if Kano accept...? (3) Do you have any single tribe in your Cabinet in the East? (4) Can any tribe claim Onitsha. or Aba to be No Man's Land? (5) Can Obi of Onitsha accept the elevation of Sarkin Hausa in Onitsha to Obi status? My conclusion: We have been living together as brothers and sisters. For years in peace,You must respect our Tradition and Institutions.Ifeanyi Ubah should stop Jumping around Lagos beating drums of War. God bless Yoruba,Hausa, and Igbo!!!!

prettyboi1:
Beautiful reply. We are all Nigerians first before any tribal labels. In fact I strongly suggest that our government should start punishing strongly anybody who tramples on other people along the lines of religion and/or ethnicity.

Larryfly:
But seriously Joke's comment got me thinking. They were igbos there when he made the statement and they applauded......what does that mean?
Are we not blowing it out of proportion?

SurePresident:

Yes, Don Jazzy put Nigeria first before being an igbo and he refused to make imbecilic statement like most of his kinsmen. This is how it should be. Civilized nations like America and others that we aspire to be like will always tell you Country first before tribe. Jazzy is one of the very few intelligent igbos that I admire. Majority of igbos have fart-filled craniums, they've been brainwashed since young age. Whenever an igbo heads a Govt office, he never employs other tribes despite better qualifications, only igbos. tribalism has eaten so deep into igbos that other wiser tribes can NEVER vote an igbo as President. This is the major reason why an igbo shall never rule Nigeria. It's a verified fact that there are triple Nos of Hausas than igbos in Lagos, yet the Hausas give us no head ache whatsoever. But igbos with their leaky diarrhea mouth, are hated by both Yorubas and Hausas in Lagos. For real, I can see where tribalism is guaranteed to end these senseless igbos.

ngozi is the best! Bless put ur hands 2gether for her[/size][size=8pt]

Spot on. I will urge one of the Igbo leaders in the meeting to come and clarify the situation because I find it difficult to comprehend the applauding after the statement.

Ambode will win with landslide victory even with or without your votes. The oba made the comment not Ambode, like you said PEJ made stoning statement but PEJ is the wife of GEJ.

Oba and Ambode are two different people not related by blood or marriage.

As for Joke Silva, she said the right thing. If the Ndigbos at the gathering didn't take it serious so what's the wahala all about?

The Oba was just angry at Igbos towards their attitude at the presidential and he's worried cos he want continuity in Lagos and it is only Ambode that can do that.

You actually should re-examine yourself, you are filled with hate. Smh

Mariojane:
you all are taking paracetamol over someone else headache. cant this story just die down and Nigerians live as one?

Nutase:

This is a very silly comment oga blogger. I have loads of respect for you but this is poo. Was he angry with them because they voted according to their beliefs? Is he their father or their conscience that he should dictate how they should vote? The beauty of democracy is in the freedom of choosing your leaders. Democracy is a game of numbers not a game of intimidation and bitterness. If GEJ was like him this country would have been burnt down.
If God almighty who has all the power in the universe does not force us to do what he wants then nobody including a power drunk mortal should not even attempt it.

Oby Ezekwesili reacted to the audio tape of the Oba of Lagos,threathening Igbo's. She said she was shocked that people were clapping while the Oba spoke..
Respected Nollywood actress,Joke Silva replied her, saying that means the Igbo leaders understood the context. In essence,they knew the OBA didn't mean those words to be taken as threats.

Oby then told her,there is no justification for those statements. What do you think?
