I have read this Oba/Igbo squabbles and I feel so irritated that the revered royal stool is being denigrated. What Kabiyesi Akiolu said was inappriopriate and uncalled for but we shouldn't allow that to be a platform to insult the Oba. If not for his age but for the seat he occupies. No catholic will be happy to see the Pope insulted neither will a Bini son smile when Oba of Benin is abused. We should try to refrain ourselves from causing more damage. Open confrontation is not the best way to douse the situation.

Vote Mr Jimi Agbaje(Lagos)
Vote Nyesome Wike(Rivers)
Vote Captain Iheanacho(Imo/APGA)


Wise talk but u can not confront him secretly otherwise he will not notice he done wrong. I use to think dat the Obas, Igwes, Emirs are very wise people dat examine their taughts b4 voicing them out as words. But in this case not. They are always abusing the powers that are bestowed to them by the people they rule. Is a shame!

He made his unwise utterances publicly,
forgeting dat Nigerians have embrace democracy and rule of law.
And in democracy dat u dont force or threaten ppl to do ur will.
To me, he failed his community, his local government, state government and nigeria
as a whole. He did not learn from the hate SPEECHES made by PEJ. Which was one of the major
down fall GEJ.

I guess He has caused Ambode a lot of harm.

Let Nigerian choose who they feel will do the Job and not to be forced
or threaten to vote for anyone that will bring Nigeria backwards.

ENOF IS ENOF FOR ALL THIS PPL DAT HAS PERSONAL INTEREST IN THE GOVERNMENT.

SHAME ON THEM!

Don jazzy is only saying this because APC paid him to do so. For him, this is business as usual. Don jazzy unfortunately whether PDP or not is why the OBA decided to turn to an Agbero. We really don't care. What we want to see is how he'll drown igbo in lagoon if they don't vote who he wants.

This is between igbo and that useless oba. Not jimi, ambode or whoever. This between us and that their useless king. Let's see if his gods is as strong as he think it is.

Truth be told....until JK started his campaign, Lagos didnt have Igbos, Yorubas or Hausas. All she had were Lagosians. The hussles and buzzles...the hard life...the struggle for survival...from the bus conductors..to the bus drivers...passengers...commuters...agbero...bla bla bla...they all spoke a common Lagos language...with the common Lagos sharpness...common Lagos alertness and a common Lagos vision...the vision for a better developed, and peaceful Lagos of greater opportunities. This bond had built their drive for prosperity...from Tinubu to Fashola...working hand in hand with a very ethnic rich cabinet...made of pat utomi, joe igbokwe, ben akabueze, and a host of others, lagosians had always been lagosians. But like I said...that was until JK started his campaign.
Just like PDP is known..taking devilish advantage of our differences... Religious differences on a national level, ethnic differences on a local level..and even academic differences on certain occasions...this has been the hallmark of pdp.
Lagosians should look beyond these difference as always...vote for the party that has always offered the best. Feel free to vote Ambode or JK ... But keep tribal diff out of the way...because at the end of the day...everyone shares the same struggle.

For those who say Fashola repatriated some Igbos...I ask...What abt the mad men repatriated to ibadan? And the beggars sent back to the north. Let us stop seeing things from a tribal perspective.

pat utomi,akabueze,joe igbokwe and a host of others, namely
please let's not deceive ourselves. I've been around for too long to know that these have been a long time issue in Lagos. the ethnicity and tribal discrimination problem. I was born,bread,buttered,mayonnaised and whatever else u add to bread in lagos.I grew up on the streets of Lagos and hustled with Yoruba friends in Lagos too.it is not just as bad as it is in the north but there is no denying the fact that it exists. Igbokwe is nothing but a macinery that the APC as a party use to carry out their dirty practices and am telling you cause I know.He stays a street away from mine and am giving you that info first hand for free. I don't count him as someone the Igbo would or should be proud about. so coming here to tell us Lagos has been one united people hustling each one for her daily bread in peace and without any brawl or badmouthing until jimi agbaje's campaign is so not true. Need I ask you, the issues raised in that little flier u have up there are they true or made up by the PDP. of course campaigning would mean bringing every thing you consider anti people or antidemocratic in your opponents dealings in time past to score a cheap point but it doesn't mean it is never true what the opposition party have raised. lagosians are dying to know,who would take these urchins called agberos who harass the common man,off our streets?, who would rescue lagos off this evil and seemingly tight grip of Alpha Beta magnate that has exploited us for the past 16 years. who would value the common lagosian for the Nigerian that we truly are and not only for our vote while they would bundle us and dump us in our various states after they emerge victorious at the pole with our votes eventually.these are questions we are begging to be answered not more and more hate statements by some old man who rants ugly cause he feels the hands that put food on their table at the expense of the common lagosian is threatened and you hear his benefactors come here to defend and twist what we heard and have seen with our own eyes evidently telling us the oba who has wined and dined with APC chieftains over the years could have been indirectly canvassing for Jimi?! what do you people take us for?? fools?? chain,we son suffer.smh.

What type of TRIBALISM IS THIS
You defend your territory they call you a tribalist.

You support them for elective posts in your territory you are still a tribalist.

They call your land a No man's land Yet we are still the tribalist.

They abused our elders we are still the tribalist.

You lease them your house and they will tell you to sale the whole building for them, we are still a tribalist.

Please, nobody should quote me about being unfair, I made this to drive a point, that Jk isn't the cause of segregation in Lagos as opposed to what the post I quoted suggested.

The MOST INTELLIGENT write up I've read since this wahala started......
Onyebuchi Ememanka writes ~

What is the principal interest of the Igbos in Lagos? What do we seek to achieve in our sojourn here? My take is simple. We seek a prosperous Lagos that is economically viable, peaceful....a mini Nigeria of sorts where all people are able to live and pursue their livelihood without let or hinderance.

As a people that thrive on commerce, Igbos want a Lagos where there are government policies that promote the growth of commerce and business.

A Lagos where government builds roads, bridges, hospitals and is generally alive to their duties.
Education is free in Lagos and our children enjoy this.

No Igbo child has been sent away from any public school in Lagos. Lagos state government pays WAEC and NECO fees for all students in Lagos....our children enjoy this too.

What do we really want in Lagos? The truth is that we are strangers here. Lagos belongs to some people, just like Onitsha and Aba. Let's not carry on as if this place is a no man's land. It is not(LAGOS IS YORUBALAND)!

All of a sudden, Jimi Agbaje has become an Igboman....we have adopted him as our son.....the same way we adopted President Jonathan in the last election against our strategic interest as a people...a decision that has left us in serious political confusion and our senators begging to be admitted into the APC.

What is the difference between Jimi Agbaje and Akinwumi Ambode? Is any of them Igbo? What is our problem? I believe that we have a fair share here. We live in peace unlike our people in the North. I don't think there are more Igbos in Lagos than there are in Kano, yet we live peacefully here.

Yorubas are highly politically sophisticated people and they understand that it is better for them to have a government in Lagos that belongs to the same party as the party at the centre. Igbos cannot love Lagos more than Yorubas. This is their land. If anything happens here now, we will all leave and return home. These people own here...
this is their home and we must respect their feelings. Every person living in Lagos wants more federal presence in Lagos. We want a 4th mainland bridge, we want so many other things that the federal government can do.

In the years past, Lagos hasn't enjoyed much federal intervention because of political party differences. Now they have that chance and we want to spoil it for them by being more catholic than the pope.

Let everybody vote any candidate he wants but I reject any collective Igbo move to vote against the strategic interests of the people who own the land where we live and make our living. Lagos has been good to our people. We have succeeded here in business and the professions.

Let's not disrespect the people of Lagos. I will not support any move that will create an impression that Igbos are against the interest of the owners of Lagos. Nobody has murdered our people here like what we see in the north. Lagos remains the only state in this country where Igbos hold top government positions.

Even our neighbors and brothers, Rivers State have never given us that privilege despite our huge population and presence there" . . .

Do Nigerians still remember that the Oba of Benin once expressed his preference for Oshiomole when the later was seeking a second term in office? The Monarch was only angry at the obvious desire of the Igbos to undermine the decision of the Oracle. Agreed, he ought to have been more discreet and circumspect. But, notwitstanding the hullabalo occassioned by his threat-lace statement. Ambode will still emerge governor. The Oracle has made his pick, and nothing can assail. ;DDo Nigerians still remember that the Oba of Benin once expressed his preference for Oshiomole when the later was seeking a second term in office?

The.fact remains that No amount of words used to twist previous declaration to kara or conscientize the igbos will hold water. That TOAD (oba) had shown clear, proven die-hard mem of APC for donkey years, the damages are hanging somewhere at the ceiling.
Telling us that he.might be working with JK is a political statement to have an already consumed cake; just take water to push it down cos trying to throw up mak tins messy.
