Flyoruboy: Listen small boy, you can lie to yourself all you want, you can even downplay this truth but the minorities are crying everyday about the colonization of their ancestral land. Is Ambode from Ijebu, Epe, Ikorodu or Awori? What is his business with Governance in a place that is not his ancestral land. Why will an Ondo man even have the guts to contest an election against an indigene and even win and nothing is being said about it? Nobody can take that nonsense. It will never happen anywhere else outside Lagos even in Ondo, Osun or Ekiti that claim to be Yoruba land. |

anulaxad: Many Lagosians were also born in Ekiti, Oyo, Ondo and Osun but they won't even dare contest a local Govt election there. The day they try, they will be reminded that their parents are not indigene of the state. Tell me one non-indigene who has contested an elective position in your ancestral state. Anyone? Gerrarahere! Freaking migrant. |

huangcheng: I hope this response will silence you for good, but if doesn't then you are nothing but a fool and attention seeking punk. You asked if Ambode is from Lagos? Personally it doesn't matter to me whether he is from Lagos or not as long as he's Yoruba. But I will present to you incontrovertible proof that he is. I just hope after this you will bow out in shame and finally shut the fvck up :

scholes0: What is the name of your village? Does it sound like Ikorodu, Eti Osa or Ifako? Why are you not proud of going back to your ancestral land? Come December most Igbos go back to their ancestral land and leave the indigenous people of Lagos to at least have a private time in their land but not other Yoruba migrants. Why fight over something that doesn't belong to you? No wonder you migrants keep trooping into Lagos in your thousands everyday so that you can further dominate and subjugate the minority indigenous Lagosians. Such crass wickedness!! |
Re: Some History On Lagos And Yoruba Migration - Nigerpeople by Nobody: 12:09am On Aug 17, 2015 |
scholes0: An Anambra man will not dare contest an election in Imo state even though it's Eastern territory. An Osun man can never contest an election in Ekiti state even though it is Yoruba territory. A Kano man can never contest an election in Yobe state even though it's Northern territory. So why do you think it is cool for an Ondo man to contest an election in Lagos state when there are indigenes vying for that office? Honestly, the day true Lagosians decides to send you migrants packing, we Igbos will be right behind them chasing you back to your abandoned slums in Oshogbo evil forest. Mark my word, it will happen real soon. We are tired of the noise from Yoruba migrants talking about "host" in this once peaceful state. |

Flyoruboy: You asked me not to believe politicians but unfortunately you are the one believing a politically motivated press release from a political Oba. Is his WAEC registration where he clearly stated that he is from Ondo state false? Leave Lagos to Lagosians and concentrate on Oshogbo or wherever the hell you all migrated from. |
Re: Some History On Lagos And Yoruba Migration - Nigerpeople by Flyoruboy(m): 12:23am On Aug 17, 2015 |
huangcheng: Hahahaha. You are a CONFIRMED Fool. YOU accused Ambode of not being an indigene of Lagos and I presented you with incontrovertible proof. But instead of towing the honorable path and admit your presumptuousness, in the usual stubborn goat igbo fashion, you are still arguing blindly. You reject the Oba's declaration, and in effect Inec's and the courts' jurisdiction to declare him fit to contest and occupy the seat. Please who the fvck are you? ? Of course your opinion or view on the subject is irrelevant coz in the overall scheme of things coz you are a nobody. As for me, I will go bed a glad man for exposing your foolishness and mischief.

Flyoruboy: No name calling small boy. The only Lagosian on this thread has walked away after i called him out. Not because he doesn't have what to say but because he's diplomatic. That's a true Lagosian, they are naturally very peaceful and hospitable unlike you migrants from the evil forests of Ogbomosho. You migrants don't care about the feelings of the minority, you have overtaken their state and have relegated them to the background. You never see the wrong in your covetousness and when they try to complain you scream "Awa Omo-Odua". I will be here waiting for the day when the pressure cooker will say enough of the suppression and explode. You will be very surprised how many Igbos will be right behind them when they send you all back to your abandoned animal kingdom. You think Igbos don't know that the real trouble makers aren't the indigenes but the migrants? Grab as much Lagos state resources as you want now that you have the chance, the clock is ticking. I'm out of here. |

On this topic, its a simple clarification. There are several independent accounts of who occupied Lagos, who owns Lagos, who owns the throne, who the land barons are, who the elites and socialites of Lagos are....and uptil today none of it has Ibo in the numbers. Ibo is excluded in the who is who of Lagos! So what else do we need to discuss about ownership of Lagos? Bloody Lagooners!! Crazy Five Percenters .... 3 Likes |

anulaxad:Yes, she was born in Lagos. Where is her father from? Go and ask her very well. She definitely will tell you. The truth is that most people who parade themselves as Lagosians are migrants from different parts of Yorubaland. The original indigenous owners of Lagos are the Aworis and the Binis. These days it is most disheartening to find immigrants from Osogbo, Ogbomoso, Ile-Ife, Oyo, Akure and many other hinterland Yoruba towns all claiming Lagosian. Maybe they're right in a way. Constitutionally, if you live, work and pay your taxes in Lagos, then you should be addressed as a Lagosian. If you were also born in Lagos, same applies. |

Political power comes from physical occupation: not historical rights, not title deeds, not moral rights - only occupation. Those people who occupy a territory determine the nature of the society in that region. - Arthur Kemp. The other Yoruba migrants in Lagos like Tinubu, an Osunite, Ambode, an Ondonite and the Brazil returnees have occupied Lagos for a long time that they are now making political claim to it, if you give the the Aworis/Eguns/ Ijebus chance, they will repeat the Ogba/Ikwerre/Ekpeye scenario in PH, greedy politicians amongst them will seek to wrestle the control of Lagos from the current mainstream Yorubas. A future Biafra Army must make use of this. If Nigeria, however continues to exist, and Igbos continue to migrate to Lagos, our numbers will reach a critical mass.... 1 Like |

fx45: I am tired of these crafty people honestly, i am talking about their systematic colonization of the indigenous Lagosians and they're talking about Ibos claiming Lagos. Which Igbo man will want to claim Lagos? We can only lay claim to the piece of land we bought lawfully in Lagos. By Christmas we all head back to our land and leave the true Lagosians to have a quiet time to discuss private pressing issues in their land but these migrants don't ever leave to their cursed lands, they now claim to be Lagosians. They are always the first to scream "Lagos is Yoruba land". These MIGRANTS should know that Lagos is not "YORUBA LAND", Lagos is Lagosians land, Osun is Osunites land, Ondo is Ondoites land. Leave Lagosians to their land and go back to your evil forests. The earlier the true Lagosians start making noise about this issue the earlier they will reclaim their ancestral land else these Oshogbo dwellers will take over the place and install their sons to rule over them.

fx45: Who are you? My Grandma is half Sierra Leonean while my her father again is from Lagos, unlike you I know my history. Most Yoruba people who live in Lagos are originally from Lagos, the Yoruba lagos dialect is the most clearest out of all Yoruba dialects, this is not because they are the most educated but simply because hstorically they're Yoruba has been like that. I have told people like you a billion and one times, Aworis are Yorubas, Binis have no link to Lagos other than through the King and some settlers, Yorubas have been living in Lagos for hundreds of years. Look why are we even explaining this to you. My mother was born in Ibadan while her family was from Lagos, she lived most of her life in Ogun state. My dad's side is from Ogun state. Yorubas don't divide themselves, everywhere they go they are the same. Stop your pettiness. 3 Likes |

pazienza: An Igbo man is a natural capitalist, he never wants anything for free and he never offers any goods or service for free. An Igbo man will be the last person to steal a piece of land, he will rather pay a price for the thing he wants and a fair price too. The indigenous people of Lagos have nothing to fear from the Igboman. Rather his fear should be channeled to those who pretend to be their Yoruba brothers by day and orchestrate ways of taking over their land at night. Can you believe that Tinubu, an Osun man is now the king maker of Lagos, he even influences who becomes the Oba of Lagos. Chai!!! What an insult to Lagos ancestors!! I don't know if you have met the true indigenous Lagosians before, man you should visit Badagry, somewhere under the bridge where they like to gather in sunny afternoons to drink palmwine. You would just love them for their peaceful nature, civility and hospitality. I cannot say the same for these migrants. They are just so annoying, loud and lack basic manners. They actually have messed up the once peaceful Lagos state i grew up knowing, they brought Agbero, road side markets and other insanity you see around Lagos, they are also very dirty in nature. My Lagosian friends are tired of them but they can't do anything because they are very few. Igbos will do everything they can to help send these Ogbomosho dwellers back to their evil forests and cursed lands. Why are they running away from their ancestral lands though? The worse is that they never return or plan to return someday. |

anulaxad: Just shut the fvck up man. See how confused you sound, your mother was born in Ibadan, she lives most of her life in Ogun state. Your dad is from Ogun state bla bla and somehow you became a LAGOSIAN. Man you are an Ogun man and not a Lagosian. Go back to your fathers land or wherever the hell you migrated from, your family probably MIGRATED to Lagos in the early 60s and you're quick forgetting your ancestral land you lost child. |
