any slumdog who still has d guts to insult the igbos is either working for
that useless oba or a fascist yoruba group.. i do not hate yoruba. but i hate the oba and anyone who
wishes any man dead for performing his civic duties .lagos is and continues to be no mans land.. igbos
developed that place and presently won a house of reps seat in oshodi isolo..we will never vote APC...
we dont need any seat in govt.. we dont need anything from nigeria.. igbos are Gods own people.. and
one day biafra shall prevail. Nigeria is bullshit .. nothing more than a bunch of tribalistic satans called
hausas and yorubas.... we the igbos have prooven to be above tribalism and ethnicity..and when we
finally develope that lagoon,that oba will still chase us back to the dry land.. there is no such thing as
the oba of lagos.. tout in regal attire

I wish to start by saying that the Oba of Lagos goofed by making such an unfortunate statement. Every right thinking person must condemned such unwarranted and ungodly utterances of the Oba.

However, while we are all calling for the head of the Oba, we should also remind ourselves that the Igbos through their representatives had at one point or the other made inflammatory statements that had the tendency of igniting a tribal conflict, but for the peaceful and calm nature of the Yorubas, those inflammatory statements were ignored to have peaceful coexistence.

It is wrong for the Igbos to claim that -

1.Lagos is a no-man's land - Lagos by its geographical location is in the Southwest of Nigeria and dominated by the Yorubas. There is no where it's ever written expressly or impliedly that a certain geographical location called Lagos was void and uninhabited. A certain tribe, group, or clan founded Lagos and this clan or group has passed down its traditions, ways of life, believes and norms to generations and generations, which many still belief on.

2. The igbos developed Lagos - This is a devilish claim. The development of Lagos started from the early 1900, this was aided by Federal might because was then a capital of Nigeria. In the early 1950 to 1970, the Oyos, the Ogbomoshos, the Egbas, the Aworis, and the Binis were the trade merchants involved in regional and international trade. During this period the Igbos except for few, were mainly involved in clans and local politics. It was in the early 1980 Lagos witness the upsurge of Igbos business activities in Lagos. So before the mass migration of the Igbos to Lagos, Lagos has developed and will keep on developing even if all the Igbos decide to leave Lagos.

3. Igbos are the ones feeding Lagos - The igbos can never and will never feed Lagos. If any tribe wants to make this claim, if should be the Hausas. Most of what are consumed down south comes from the North. In what way can the Igbos justify this ungodly claim. If an Igbo man has a business in Lagos, 70% of his employees are from the same ethnic extraction. When it comes to business ownership, the Yorubas have more business outfits than the Igbos in Lagos, and employs more none Yorubas in such organizations. The igbos need to expunge this claim from their brain.

4. The Eze Ndigbo giving a condition that the deputy governor of PDP must be of the Igbo extraction - Once a man contributes to any community he finds himself, he should be able to vie for an elective post. However, that should be left to the main candidate and his party to decide, not by a tribe insistence. Can an average igbo politician have a Yoruba man or woman has his deputy in the east? The answer is obvious. It is wrong for the Eze Ndigbo to every demand such in Yoruba speaking state.

5. The igbos are more superior in nature than other tribes in Lagos - The business savvy mentality of an average igbo man I appreciate. Their cleverness does not make them superior over other tribes. The mere fact that other tribes does not make noise or conjugate the ways the igbos does, do not make them inferior or less business minded. The Yorubas and Hausas are more successfully in business world than the igbos. Other tribes may not be dominate in the motor spare part or generator business, but in order area of business other tribes in Lagos preform far better and more successfully than the igbos.

The igbos need to expunge this superiority complex from their mind and come to reality.

Yorubas are peace loving, accommodating and God fearing people. The igbos should not allow their inordinate desires, affections and the evil schemes of the politicians to erode the long existing peaceful bond.


Yorubas are not cowards and we refuse to accept such label. Our inaction does not make us docile or lack the will power to act, when we act, we act decisively.

look here .. you are free to air your opinion just like i have aired mine.. but have any yoruba man been deported from the east before?,. have any yoruba man been threatened to vote apga in the east before?.. the igbos are not arrogant or complexed.. why would a whole oba threaten not just a person but a whole tribe?.. any responce you get should be merited because the igbos are very hurt... you do not beat a child and expect the child not to cry... so any word of hurt from the igbos now is justified because the oba is like d mouthpiece of the yoruba race and he is the custodian of all that yoruba represents... he has just spoken the mind of the average yoruba man... that is my case.. what he is receiving now is exactly what he brougut upon himself...
