We saw what yorubas did at ilorin.

Say what you like about ilorin but the fact remains that the Yorubas have the real power in Kwara. Forget story, Yorubas run kwara state, the current Governor is Yoruba, his predecessor Bukola Saraki is Yoruba, bukola's father, late strongman of kwara politics, Olusola saraki, was Yoruba. Emir Sulu Gambari may be Fulani but the real power lies with the Governor who is elected by the majority. Yorubas outnumber every other ethnic group in kwara, even though the state falls under a different geopolitical zone, for all intents and purposes it is a Yoruba state. Talk another one abeg. Now what will your people do about the "abandoned properties" in PH? Coz Lagos deja vu may be in the offing. grin

This will be the madness of the century and will be fiercely fought.

Are you yeeboes the only one in Lagos? The Hausa Bureau d Change have more investment in Lagos than you people but they dont chest beat nor make noise. Why not claim Kano as no man's land, why fixated on Lagos. You loudmouthed fl.atties come online to brag about non existing achievement, tell us how you develop Lagos? Is it the gala sellers or 2 by 2 yeeboe shops that build all the roads, hospital, bridge and house in Lagos. You are a disgrace to all living and dead Yeeboes. Pathetic.

Hope you know 80% of taxes and duties used to develop Lagos is paid by non yorubas...always keep that in mind whenever you see Fashola commissioning a project.

Examples of costs and projects funded with tax payers are government institutions, bridges, roads, e.t.c

More than 90% of the tax come from non yoruba, what tax can taxi drivers, agbo sellers, bus drivers, tailors, omonile, drug takers, cultists, gang rapers pay

You cant just come online to post jargons and expect us to accept it, give us proof of the junk you post above. So Mike Adenuga, Otedola, Otudeko, Okoya Thomas, Dangote, Jimoh Ibrahim, Prince Adedoyin, Dele Fajemirokun, ELizade Motors, Folorunsho Alakija, E.t.c are Igbos? Your lies can wake a dead horse.

You are obviously an ignorant cretin. How many non-Yorubas are in the Lagos civil service? The Lagos state assembly passed a law mandating the conduct of its affairs in Yoruba language. Fact is, your people will always remain settlers in Lagos. Fine, you can live and thrive in our midst if you are peaceful, however some privileges will always remain out of your reach. Live and deal with that. You may be born in Lagos but your state of origin will always be your father's (a SE state).

Go and help jos people reclaim jos north or kwara people reclaim Illorin, the landed property issue in port harcourt was one of the rewards by the unreasonable federal government to rivers people for supporting the federal government, if there was no civil war there would never have been abandoned property.

If igbos are smart enough not to be tricked or hoodwinked into another civil war where the same people they did coup to liberate their sage from a life jail sentence only for him to turn and fight his liberators then the issue of igbo abandoned property will never happen again in this country.

Go and reclaim your property first before talking about others. You have got no single shame in you, you are being kicked left and right by the Ikweeres who told you point blank that they are not Yeeboes but you are here lamenting over Ilorin. Is it not a shame that you all ran away from your cursed land and not even proud of it, but claiming another man's land. I saw a thread yesterday where they asked why Dangote cant even invest in Yeeboeland? No one want to waste his money on a cursed erosion ravaged land, reason many of your men run away in the middle of the night and never return there. It sucks to be you.

Lol. Bro, you can speak igbo in your various homes, enclaves, and to your customers for all I care (that happens everywhere in the world anyway), but as you rightly acknowledged it is what obtains in government circles and who controls the machinery of government that counts. We don't depend on Igbo petty trading and spare parts/okrika business to keep Lagos moving anyway coz we have our own industries. You are always welcome in our midst, as are other ethnic groups, just that I don't get why you all have to be meddlesome and can't just stick to your trading business rather than stirring up trouble wherever you find yourselves. As if you are the only non-indigenes in Lagos.

You still don't get it, no body is contesting for ibadan, oshogbo, Akure, Ado Ekiti, abeokuta with you.
Lagos has been developed to a federal capital territory with niger delta money, sweat and hard work of igbos, resources from the north, yorubas can not wake up from their hypocritical hateful slumber and start claiming what they never built.

So you mean you Igbos are contesting Lagos with the Yorubas? Interesting.

It is talks like this that makes Youbas (Lagosians) hostile to igbos. So because Lagos was once a Federal Capital Territory has now made it Igbo land? So anywhere the Federal Government spends oil money automatically belongs to Igbos (as i have not heard any other tribe claiming Lagos)? You are effectively saying no Yoruba built anything in Lagos, or that once someone builts on another persons land, that land automatically belongs to him and his ethnic group.

If you are not blinded by false ego and land grab syndrome, you would realise that all land in Nigeria belongs to the state government (except those acquired and seized by the federal government) and land ownership is only transfered or leased for 100 years, after which it reverts back to the state government. If after 100 years the state government refuses to renew the leases of land acquired by Igbos, it is you people that will call back and cry injustice.

The igbos has to talk to the few crack heads among you, they bring hatred to the whole race.

You are playing a dangerous game here. Land issues are emotionally explosive issues. If the Yorubas feel threatened by the increased migration of Igbos to Yoruba land, they mights use the same government machinery to destroythe economic leverage and even start reducing the igbo population by deporting them back to their states.

It's ok to dream bro. The ikwerres of Rivers state confiscated igbo properties after the civil war coz they saw it as an opportunity to right the past wrongs of igbo encroachment over their lands, and ironically till today no single one of those properties have been reclaimed. Even GEJ couldn't assist igbos in reclaiming those properties from ikweres (who are a supposed igboid ethnic group).

Now imagine what we Yorubas can and probably will do to you chest-beaters if you push your luck too far. If the ikweres could get away with that imagine we can do to you if we chose to go that route.


Abandoned property saga had nothing to do with the Ikwerres, infact the Ikwerres lost their ancestral lands to Ijaw, as a result of the abandoned property saga.

The ending part of this article might help people understand a bit more about what happened during the abandoned property saga, it was not about Ndiigbo, it was about Ijaws desire to get a foothold and ancestral claim over Ph, at the expense of the Diobu- Ikwerres, Ikwerres were the real victims of the abandoned property saga.

Liar!

In fact, they invented the term "Abandoned property". And they (ikwerres) are supposed to be igbos too. Smh.

Tis a dangerous game they stand to lose more as tryin to shift or change the demographics in that no man's land of over 17 million, generating billions for state and federal coffers would not only bankrupt the lazy government officials and locals but also would take massive controversial legislation never before seen that will break up the nation (thus giving the igbos a chance of self determinating Biafra)and now we are back to bankrupting Lagos government and Lazy yeribas...In all ways you look at it,tis a win-win situation

There is no market or business without customers. Without Yoruba customers Igbo businesses are dead in Lagos. That's why the Oba used the words "your end" that is he would bring about your end. The Igbos are trapped in Yoruba land and that worries me a great deal. Look closely at Igbos in Lagos and you will find that 90% are poor living hand to mouth, they mostly in arrears with their rent and lately cannot go home.

I have been to Yeeboe land and yes there are clusters of magnificent houses and settlements here and there but on the whole the place is sparse poor uninviting and barren looking. Although it can be developed with proper attention. The lure of Lagos, Abuja and civil war trauma is collectively disabling the Igbos. They really should stop making noise. All the money the get from hustling in Lagos goes to their landlord (rent), the state (tax) and other living expenses. The vast majority goes back to Yoruba people. Thanks Yeeboes.

The Igbos felt bad that the Ikwerres that sold them lands looked the other way, while the Ijaws claimed those lands, It was shortsightedness on the part of Ikwerres, they were so fixated on being a part of the the old Rivers state that they were too eager to please the Ijaws the Lords of the old Rivers state and the favorite of the Odua-Arewa gang up then, little did the Ikwerres suspect the Ijaws long term plan.

The Ikwerres for a short term gain, abandoned their brothers( Igbos of SE) and ultimately shot themselves on the foot. Now they must share PH with Ijaws, if peace is to reign in Rivers.
