The beauty of free speech is that it can be negative or positive, you can agree with it or disagree but it should not be restricted. We've seen politicians said worse things and they were not crucified, you people need to get over yourselves! Personally I feel the Oba was wrong to make such a statement but expecting the ICC to sanction him is just plain ridiculous!

Let's meet in court at hague

Okay 1/40 seats for you = no man's land
even the minorities in the UK parliament have far more than that, and no one is shouting "no man's land"
I just pity you lot, with this attritious attitudes of yours. ... you guys have this special ability to cause friction between yourselves, and others around you... and for what exactly? silly reasons.

You are really despicable and pathetic!! We're you not the people taunting them of not having any seat? you listed the appointment made by Ambode and he didn't include ndigbo and you were mocking them with that! only for you to turn around and blame them... Thunder will visit liars

RickyTan:


Of course Lagos preceded oil but it was NOT the mega city that it has become. Today Lagos is probably the biggest city in all of AFRICA. We are all very proud of Lagos. Trying to exclude anybody is courting disaster and problems.

Lagos grew to Mega City status because of Nigerian oil resources and because it was Nigeria's capital. Just Like Abuja has grown because of Nigerian oil resources and because it is Nigeria's capital.

Cut it short , most of you are lad and not well schooled. Discovery oil was not with jigger but money gotten from coaco, groundnut and palm oil.
Majoriy of the development in lagos was from sw, ask your elder the place call boundary and western avenue in lagos. SW then was from ojuelegba below.
Meanwhile, history confirm that calabar was the first colonial seat of power it also have river/port . What attracted them to lagos "development and exposure.

Point of correction, Yorubas don't despise Ijaws.
Do you say this because of the events of the last election

Liars and ritualist!! I know you people like my hand! you cal GEJ drunkard! I know how you despise ijaw! one of you told me that they'll continue to milk you and they can not do anything. You liars are evil I must say!!!

@ severus why are u cursing the Oba online.... if u live in Lagos and are so bold, u can go to his palace and go and curse him there... ode!!

SeverusSnape:

Oba Akiolu is a Stu_pid fool. Yes, I said it. He's a foolish and uncouth neanderthal.

Now do your worst!

... Oba is on his way to jail

Rotimi47:
june 12 was majorly a Yoruba thing as all other tribes left the Yorubas to carry their cross alone, the igbos ran away from Lagos and everywhere they were leaving in the south west saying now the Yorubas most fight their own civil war; that I will never forget because your people left Lagos and the south west in very large numbers, it was like an exodus. So stop lying behind your teeth.

Thanks , igbo wanted 2000 yoruba casualties from june 12 but yoruba fought with brain not cutlass.
Tinubu that they all hate lead NADECO operation with radio kudurat that got international intervention which gave birth to democracy today.

That's the point you yeeboes don't get! An Oba can never apologise..thats why they are called kabiyesi.. meaning kabiyor osi.. no one can ever ask u..he does things and gets away with it! Until u understand yoruba culture to some extent,u lot will keep having problems in Lagos, which I must remind you is yoruba-land

Rose2014:


Me thinks if he had offered an unreserved apology, the matter wouldn't have escalated.

Jail for alteration , is that equal to murder ? Wake up from your slumber .

Then ur not yoruba.. a Yoruba Oba can NEVER apologise... he will rather die

AikayDaWrapper:

I'm not ibo but I'm sorry to say this is a silly statement.

Nobody! Even if you are the president of the gaddamn United States is beyond an apology.

aresa:



Last time we checked after June 12, you lying cowards forgot that Lagos was no man's land, you packed your load, your goats, your family and formed ekenedilishuku exodus back to your villages..

Do you clowns and cowards know who stayed in Lagos to defend Lagos? Lagosians/Yoruba people, the real owners.

When Hausa people slaughtered over 60,000 ibo people up north exactly what did you do? You stayed and fight? No, you formed the same exodus like cowards and ran back to your villages?

When Ojuku got his asss whooped nko? Exactly what did he do? The coward picked race and ran out of the country dressed like a woman...

You people are shallow and empty cowards with zero sense of worth and belonging...

Sadly, you village clowns don't know your history, but we do and we'll keep reminding you always..

Gbam!!! Preach brother

There is only one tribe that has no respect for their elders. You only exhibite your cultural belief here.

I don't reside in Lagos. But that doesn't change the fact that Oba Akiolu is a monumental disgrace to royal fathers nationwide.

teamchocolate:

That is fact

am yoruba and i know that was a silly,unwise and racist statement by the king..

nigeria works because most yorubas go to school,most ibos are into business and most hausa are in the military and also into farming,many other tribes into different sectors that makes nigeria work as a nation

although we might survive on our own,there's a lot of advantage in our unity

p.s: d ibo people castigating the king should do same to those shouting biafra, many of them have made worse racist utterances than the king here on nl and outside..racism is wrong no matter who commits it

SeverusSnape:

To whose royal fathers? Yours. Definitely not ours.

The best manner of protest is you villagers showing your displeasure by leaving and going back to your villages....for good but you won't do that because your land is socially and economically bankrupt and unproductive...

Lagos (in South West) was the capital of Nigeria from 1914 up to 1991, until Abuja officially became Nigeria's capital on 12 December 1991. It was on 14 November 1991, the Presidency and other federal government functions were finally relocated to the new capital city of Abuja.

Get informed and stop feigning stupid ignorance in the public domain as if it was the proceeds from cocoa that developed Lagos to its mega-status while belittling the immense contributions of virtually all the tribes in Nigeria and the ever free flow of petro-dollars from another man's backyard.

AikayDaWrapper:

hat was never a statement but fact , which ever tribe you come i believe you know your dos and dont. Lagos still remains yorubaland.
Tell igbo to learn kano killing upon all igbo investment in kano. You cant rule people in their land. Other tribe accomodate you to trade and make money. You want to slap them with your money.

Let your icc humilate our Oba, igbo are in for suck.

kernel501:


Saint Hun, why have Yorubas not forgiven Saraki and Dogora?
Rather than forgiving him you prefer blackmailing him daily.
Why is Tinubu hunting Fashola ? The world now understands you better.

You were making reasonable comments before you delved into
tribal bigotry.
Oba Akiolu goofed with his statement but that doesn't give
you the right to cast aspersion on an entire group of people.

Jobos:

Does it mean that lagos was enmity or without king before white men name it capital. Or why do you say it is for everybody.
That was the reason Awolowo strategically end civil war. It is work of brain and not musscle .

Hello Brother - the debate is not whether Lagos had kings or not. We know the answer. Lagos is historical Yoruba land and Yorubas had kings way back when. The issue is that Lagos The Mega City - that we all love and are proud off became Lagos because of certain things that NO other part of Nigeria or City in Nigeria enjoyed. It was exclusive to Lagos - it became designated as Nigeria's capital city.

Now it has shifted to Abuja and Abuja has blossomed.

We are not debating history. We know the history.
Today Lagos is a Mega City and Lagosians are varied. It is a fact.

RickyTan:


He is your son, but without the critical contribution of others (infusion of Nigerian resources and federal capital designation) he will not be a world renowned doctor (mega city Lagos). He would have been like your other sons which did not receive the critical contribution (like Osogbo city). No big deal.

My point is simple Lagos is no different from Abuja.

so we are on the same page then. lagos is not no mans land

Lemon12:

What did ojukwu did to his brother, inciting death on his tribe.
It was a stament that can have several interpretations.

Ibos and their Ezes and Igwes should jump in the Lagoon if they dont like what Oba said. Simple as A..B..C! No be by force to live in Yorubaland.

sukkot:

Brother - did i say Lagos was "no man's land?" I said Lagos - the mega city belongs to every Nigerian. We know the history of Lagos. It is historical Yoruba land but it blossomed into a mega city because of Nigerian resources and because it was designated Federal capital. Same thing happened to Abuja.
