Lol! You called Nigeria an independent nation. I know that Nigeria is not a nation, but since you believe Nigeria is a nation, I want to hear your definition of a nation.

So, go on, indulge me.

According to the bigot OP. Abia sacked all non indegene from there civil service, its a good development. Fashola reunited destitutes Igbo, Hausa and Yoruba then Fashola is bad and must die.

Nnamdi Kanu call on his people to kill all Yorubas/Hausa, he said any bus with Kumuyi poster should must be destory and they must it, to the Igbos Kanu is a hero and freedom fighter. Dr Ariyo said Igbos should be careful and stop insulting people of Lagos and calling there ancestral land, no mans land that what happened in SA might happen if the owners of Lagos are pushed the wall, he was nearly killed and he later apologized but my Igbo people said they must run down his business and he must die. Another hypocrisy.

Yoruba voted for GEJ in 2011 and no project in the SW all through his 5yrs, they changed and voted for another choice then Igbo said Yorubas are betrayal even when GEJ is not Igbo and we have no agreement with anyone. Fayose, mimiko, ffk, obanikoro and many others stood by GEJ till the end but still they insult us daily that we are betrayals even when we know those that first troop to Abuja to pledge allegiance to Buhari.

A Yoruba man Victor Banjo fought on the biafra side, he won some battles and was even killed by Ojukwu yet Yorubas are coward and betrayals. No one blamed Ojukwu for his death but they still call us coward and betrayals. Wole Soyinka was jailed for supporting Biafra but he was later called mad professor and insulted daily by the Igbos for supporting Ameachi(SS) against PEJ/GEJ(SS).

Hausa people have been killing Igbos for any slighest provocation, but Igbos are okay with it. Yorubas have never killed nor attack Igbos since they have been living together yet they call us ediot and coward. Its not really una fault anyway, I blame the Yoruba people. Just leave us alone and face your biafra, no one is holding you from going. This site is owned by a Yoruba man and he allow you guys denigrate his tribe daily, he even help push different topics to FP which i know an Igboman will never allow. We are not holding you from going abeg, but we wont sit back while you insult us or our king and not expect a crazy response. Simple.

Lagos was developed with Niger-delta oil, let me agree with that premise. But isn't it very obvious that Anambra, Enugu, Imo, Abia and Ebonyi were equally developed with oil revenues also? So, why the fixation on Lagos only? Isn't this becoming a case of severe obsessive-compulsive fixation? @OP, i believe and know that you're a confirmed core tribalist no matter how much you hide your idiosyncracies on this subject. You have written several dirty comments against the Yoruba ethnic group on Nairaland and I guess that is the thing that gives you daily ecstasy!

Yorubas are very slimy snakes. They are the ones trying to say SS is different from SE. If they love SS so much and want to 'protect' them from SE then why do they not speak out about the attacks on Cross River and Akwa Ibom?

The muslim man Kumuyi has not condemned the attacks on SS.

Slimy cowards.

OP, its a pity your post smacks of falsehood and lies. As regards accomodation you cannot compare Lagos and Anambra. You said Anambra is home to all, how come i was attacked at Onitsha bridge head a few years ago, just becos i am ndi Yoruba? How many non Igbos are in that your home for all compared to Lagos?
You did not see anything wrong with Achebe's rants about Yorubas in his books? Arthur Eze's insults? Nnamdi Kalu's incessant incitement for all Yorubas to be killed? Asking Ibos to boycott all Yoruba churches etc.

But you keep talking about the Oba and Ariyo. So how many Ibos have been attacked in Lagos or any where in the south west since then? Your assertion that Lagos is built with Oil money is terribly false, as at 1979 when Lagos was already a big city oil was contributing less than 30% of total government revenue, even now Laglos generates more than 70% of government's non oil revenue. Lagos generates far more revenue to government than it receives, so how can you say Lagos was developed by oil money?
Lagos has ceased to be a federal capital since 1991, how come you people have not gone to Abuja en masse to claim the place as no mans land?

This is not an ethnic attack on any tribe but a moment of reflection ...this write up is coming not as a result of any phobia but due to uneasy tension in Nigeria and this is unacceptable...this was the state Europe was centuries ago so we should out grow this

I notice that anambra state used the term home for all and they are okay to do that and they will invite strangers to come do business there just like Dubai but when it comes to the issue of Lagos which was Nigerian former capital built by the collective sweat of all Nigerian especially niger delta oil..some group of people are claiming they built Lagos . it baffles any logically thinking mind how they built it..its like gwari will come out tomorrow to say that they built Abuja ...yet we know that oil money from south south built Abuja not the back burden carrying tribes (with respect to their culture ) built Abuja


Coming to frosty and nasty tension or relations between igbo and Yoruba in Lagos ...I experienced where a Yoruba man was telling an ibibio man to go back to his village I personally asked the man where are you from he said his father is from ekiti... Then I told him he is not a lagosian also. I think xenophobia is high and mind you igbo still have 101% right in Lagos so is the Hausa ijaw or edo man...

If you look at this

The people in Lagos had a head start
They were the first that interacted with the European first

They had access to education first by the virtue of their location

They had the space when igbo were fighting war of Biafra for three solid years
So they should have capitalized on this

They had most of the firm during the infamous indigenization decree of 70s which favoured the west becuase igbos then were having post traumatic stress from war and broke with just £20 left for them

They also had the space when they scared and chased the Ghana people away ...

They have produced president two times


But igbo never had these opportunities yet they are making a mark with their niger delta counterparts . what I am finding it difficult to understand why the hate


Personally I think this is inability to compete ...in today's global economy nobody runs a welfarist system and igbo are competitive in nature and I think other tribes such as Yoruba should be competitive . ijebu to my own understanding is . it will be nice if we can live together as a country and not treating one another as a virus

As you read this ask yourself why the hate, ask yourself why the lagoon talk ask yourself why was Dr. Ariyo honored ask yourself why is Daniel Kanu venting anger and firing all cylinders

To me it boils down to one thing..Blackman propensity to violence and pull him down syndrome


Let us not be jealous of people success let us understudy and compete with them. Yoruba should learn how to accept others the way they are and not expecting others to act like them and igbo with their south south cousins should learn how to let go and not offend the sensibilities of others with their culture ..Yoruba are cultural and averse to changes so they should learn that also and don't use civil war to judge others .I have seen good people from yoruba ijaw edo etc so its pointless to hate

We should compete and think our of box instead of making ourselves a laughing stock globally


That was what china did to USA


Have a blessed day

Re: Igbo,ss And Them All In Nigeria by Nobody: 7:50am On Jun 23, 2015
As a neutral observer,I hope Yorubas do not fall for this shallow attempt at addressing issues between Yorubas and Igbos. The truth is that many Igbos hate Yorubas even when they try to deny it.The relationship is similar to Whites vs Blacks.You don't love people who hate you even though you all occupy the same country.Tribalism like racism is something we wish will go away but it will not because the reality is that humans discriminate and hold on tightly to their respective group identities.

More Yorubas need to wake up and smell the coffee for what it is,not what they want it to be.You extend a brotherly hand to Igbos and in turn that is interpreted as you being a coward,lazy,selling your father's land etc.Failure to wake up to the reality of what you all dealing with ,will be a case of you all being subjugated in your own lands.See one of the posters idea of dominating Nigeria.How can that lead to a meaningful co-existence between the tribes?

People rarely give up privileges no matter how much it might oppress others..so the likelihood of you all being able to get back on y'all feet should you all be subjugated will be extremely difficult.Especially knowing how Igbos can be clannish.

[b]Just carry your perverted gospel to those that need it. So Yorubas are not accommodating? yet you couldn't cite a single case where ethnic related violence were perpetrated against Igbos anywhere in the whole of Yoruba land in the history of Nigeria. Nigerian Oil money was used to build Lagos? which money was used to build Imo, Ph, Abia, Enugu, Anambra, Kano, Cross River, Kogi et al? Zimbabwean money? Lagos ceased being the capital 24 years ago. your write up smirks of hypocrisy and your likes are not fit to preach to Yorubas about being accommodating and peaceful because Yourubas have always being known to be accommodating and peaceful. Both the Igbos and Yorubas do often make disparaging remarks against each other no doubt about that, and it's not a conduct that should be accepted or encouraged but if you have any atom of sincerity to salvage the situation, you should carry your advice and charity home first. because you are not fit or worth to give the Yoruba nation any "ALABOSI" advice. Your brothers need it more. The xenophobic venom being spewed by your "hero" Director Kalu is a million times worse than Oba Akiolu's outburst.[/b]
