laudate:victoria island/lekki experienced flood all over d place during rain pour. You will hate lekki/vi during raining season. Only ikeja GRA is ok but the rest of ikeja is sth else apart from allen avenue, adeniyi jones and awolowo road, the rest looks like normal streets in lagos. Ajao estate, the one in airport road or the one in anthony? which one? Cos they re not like new york to me. The fed govt need to fix up this places you mentioned cos the beautiful city of victoria island is dying , just companies and few residence. Mr edo man, I am in edo state now at lagos street,close to my friend hood. I don't like what am seeing. The roads re poor and your governor adams oshomole is just there doing nothing.

IGBOPRINCE: Am curious. Your previous post was about Lagos being dirty, which was why your friend left. And that was what informed my response. Now, you are talking about flooding, which is a different thing entirely. Yes, whenever there is a downpour, Victoria Island and parts of Lekki get flooded. But within a few hours, the floods recede and the roads dry out when the rains stop. A lot of drainages were unblocked by Fashola's administration, and canals were also cleared to allow for free flow of floodwater. This takes place, on a relatively regular basis. Ikoyi, Gbagada, Ikeja GRA and old Yaba are still in relatively good shape. Lagos streets are still relatively as good as those in other cities. And your jibes are totally misplaced. I am not Edo. Your ability to comprehend the truth is so sadly lacking, that you have decided to foist another ethnic group's identity on me. Usually, the modus operandi of you and your brethren is to label everyone who disagrees with them, as Yoruba... or in some cases, Hausa-Fulani. You have chosen to come up with the Edo label. I've asked you on several occasions to provide proof that Laudate is Edo. Yet, you keep failing this simple assignment with flying colours. How sad. |

laudate:am happy you agreed with me that flood disturbed those areas called lekki,ikoyi and victoria island. Pls , you re still repeating those places you mentioned b4 except gbagada. To me the road network in lagos is poor, I am not happy about it cos it s a mega city and home for all tribes. Gbagada is close to bariga, and it s not that bad but I don't really fancy the area. Lagos state gvt should work on their roads, there many places in lagos state that re very dirty and you will begin to wonder what a city? Sincerely,there re many dirty places in lagos and bad road networks esp in okota, ilasa, oshodi, ijesha,ajegunle,and bariga. |

IGBOPRINCE: Repair of roads in Lagos is an on-going project. At least in Lagos, the proportion of roads that have been rehabilitated as well those currently undergoing repairs, is quite high. Lagos Island is surrounded by lagoons, rivers and water channels. It has even been said that some parts, are a few metres below sea level. Am yet to see any city in Nigeria, where the entire road network in every single area or community, is perfect. |

Blainz: Well, it's unfortunate that the people who Enahoro served were not on throne to deny Ojukwu a celebrated burial. But you were wrong though. Ojukwu received a celebrated burial because he is a hero of a great people, Biafrans, who gave him a befitting burial for the sacrifices he made to save his people from invaders. 2 Likes |

yorubatic:You igbos are the most cursed race in the whole wide world, why do you always bring we the Yorubas into everything? The Igbos are known to be the most fetish people in the world, how do justify a tribe that openly wash corpse of a man and then force the wife(widow) of the dead to drink the water used to wash the corpse and at the same time shaving off the whole hair on the woman's head? The igbos are slaves to anything that have to do with money as they sold their soul to the devil since time immemorial, it is only in Igbo villages that shrines are openly displayed and nobody blinks. The OP made his point & instead of just making your comments, you dragged the Yorubas into it; I have nothing against the Igbos but silly comments from people like you made me turn around. Let me enlighten you a little; only cowards make noise on radios, TV's and pages of news papers without supporting it with meaniful actions. Your proposed biafra is landlocked as you exist in a beautiful country called Nigeria, you do not have any border with any country and neither do you have access to the sea. Tell me how can you win a war with Nigeria when you lost in 1970 with France and other 5 countries training and arming Biafra soldiers while you also have a border with Cameroon? The only chance you have is for your leaders to start having constructive meetings with other tribes outside you region in waua that will make them see reasons why biafra should be rather than all you're cheat beatings without action. If I may say, do you people think as you people are making noise about buying arms & ammunition other tribes/Nigerian government are throwing their own weapons away? Do know you lost the civil war because you attacked Yoruba territory called Ore which is a town in Ondo State which brought the Yorubas fully into the war. To me you Igbos are making the same mistake like you did then. Boko Haram backed their words with action & they also claimed they are defeating the Nigerian military but alas! They are now on the run because they are being killed in large numbers in ways the military don't want to disclose to the world. Starting another war will surely convenience you because the outcome will be the same except you leaders do the right thing by holding serious meetings with other tribes not all these name callings. 2 Likes 1 Share |

pazienza:Ojukwu reconciled with Nigeria and even had dinner with some of his adversaries during the war but many Igbo still harbour animosity against other tribes. People should learn from Ojukwu because he even helped form APGA a political party in Nigeria, if he didn't believe anymore in Nigeria he won't do such. 1 Like 1 Share |

Rotimi47: A people who harbour animosity will not permeate almost every nook and cranny of Nigeria, peacefully building and establishing business empires, and growing the economy of the locals and that of the country at large, and some of them even get married to the locals. It's not honourable to resort to campaign of calumny by falsely labelling the peace-loving Igbos, who have shown more 'Nigerianness' than any other group, as harbouring animosity. Ever since you were born, have you seen or heard anywhere Igbos are on rampage, killing people and destroying means of livelihoods for no just cause? The Fulani herdsmen who wield AK-47 guns and continue to rap3 and massacre helpless women and children in the dead of the night because of ordinary cattle are no problem to you. And few days ago they even extended their 'graciousness' to you by abducting a former SGF, Olu Falae from your enclave for N100m ransom. Who else harbour animosity than your likes that malign the Igbos for choosing to exercise their franchise rights and casting their votes for an Ijaw man in 2015, when in reality Igbos have worked with other ethnic groups to vote Hausa-Fulanis and Yorubas for the presidency at different political dispensations? Who else can be so bitter and angry at the peace-loving Igbos for being more successful than their 'host'? Who will not fail to use every given opportunity to remind Igbos that they should be grateful for being 'accommodated' in the same country as if Igbos are being given lands for free? Who else can be so bitter and will not hesitate to remind Igbos of the horrors of the civil war of 1967-70, caused by their greedy and wicked forbears who committed genocide on Igbos for daring to have a separate existence? Who else can be so bitter and enraged as to spew venoms against the peace-loving Igbo people for daring to seek self-determination? The Hausa-Fulani-Kanuri people have over the century propagated despicable, hate speeches in their mosques and still execute the unconscionable, cold-hearted waste of human lives and reckless destruction of means of livelihoods in the North and Middle-belt. A number of Yorubas even go to the extent of carrying wicked lies about how Hausa-Fulani-Kanuri people have been peace-loving and accommodative; that it's the Igbos that always provoke their hosts in the North warranting the pogrom and other heinous crimes against the Igbos. Yet in the same North and the Middle-belt the Christian minorities and other Southerners are maltreated, relegated to the background and even killed. You say that Igbos are arrogant, and that they don't respect their hosts while you subtly proclaim that the Hausa-Fulanis are peace-loving and accommodative. You don’t like Igbos but you still fought and killed them to be in this fraudulent union where fellows like you are favoured by the injustice, inequity and lopsided arrangement in the polity. And you still have the effrontery to state that Igbos harbour animosity for dare seeking a self-determination! Many of you hold the view that Igbos should be grateful for being allowed to live in their part of the country, in the same 'One Nigeria'! You say Igbos disrespect and denigrate their host when Igbos choose to exercise their franchise right. And you don't seem to see anything wrong in Oba Akiolu's threat to drown Igbos in the Lagos lagoon if they fail to vote for his anointed candidate! The same threat was backed by many Yorubas including Dr Ariyo in the US who even called for genocide. What other bile-filled animosity can be greater than this? Strange bedfellows, with irreconcilable value systems that are at best suitable for the individual selves, are not meant to be together! There's freedom of association and so you're ever free to channel your energy towards consolidating your OduaArewanistan republic. 2 Likes 1 Share |

Rotimi47: YORUBA - THE WORLD CAPITAL OF RITUAL-KILLERS Note this that there's virtually no week that passes by without one Yoruba person or Alfa being caught red - handed in ritual-killing. The Yorubas are the most fettish, juju-dented beings in the world. Yorubas shamelessly deploy juju and their fetish charms at work, play, church, market etc. A typical Yoruba person rarely believe that one can achieve success in life without resort to ritual killings. Yorubas are notorious ritual killers, kidnappers, cannibals and human parts merchants. If you are sincere you will remember the popular event about a RITUALIST den called SOKA in Ibadan, Oyo State, South-West of Nigeria. In the SE Okija is not up to a local government but the whole of two States in the SW is dedicated to deities and fettishness - Ogun and Osun deities. It's no longer news that Yorubaland is notorious for human parts business, with the headquarters situated in Soka Evil Forest, Ibadan. Consequent upon the discovery at Soka in Ibadan, other ritual dens in different forms were discovered here and there, a ritualist den was discovered by a fly-over bridge at ewekoro LGA on Abeokuta expressway, another baby factory was discovered at Adigbe also in Abeokuta, same goes for a baby factory at Akute in Ifo LGA of Ogun state, these baby factories are sometimes the “BLACK MARKET” for ritualists who either has money to cough out or the lily livered among them who dread the fear of the long arm of the law as well as jungle justice in the event they got nabbed for kidnap. Just when we thought we had seen and heard enough of this barbarism the news media was awashed with another rumour of reverberating sound of SOKA again in Ado-Odo Ota LGA and Ifo LGA. The Yorubaland is the undisputed world capital of ritual-killings and cannibalism! IGBOS SEEKING SELF-DETERMINATION The sponsors and supporters of Boko Haram are bloody cowards who instead of boldly seeking or declaring their own republic or caliphate chose to hide behind their ragtag militants while shamelessly pointing accusing fingers on some Southerners as being behind the group. Get this fact into your skull: seeking self-determination doesn't equate to calling for war! Being landlocked or not cannot be a criteria for self-determination. And why should that bother you? Yorubas have used every known tricks to attempt to quench the call for a separate state of Biafra. Many mischievous Yorubas have taken to the internet camouflaging as South-South people and South-East people, feigning undying fake love like never before and putting forth baseless theories why the idea of Biafra should not be allowed to fly. Recall that in the heat of their numerous nightmares frustrated Yorubas have created numerous threads on Nairaland in their desperate attempts to stop Biafra agitation. Due to the resounding responses they received on such threads Yorubas had to quickly call for such threads to be deactivated! Fact# The so-called invasion of Midwest/West in 1967 was simply a march to Lagos. The was no invasion of Midwest to expand Biafran territory. And there was no other quicker route to Lagos from the East than the Midwest. The Biafran army was even led by Banjo, a Yoruba man. The Igbos defended themselves against world powers-backed Nigeria with Egyptian bombers, and the war lasted about three years but when the big mouthed Yoruba tribe tried their gra-gra in 1993, it did not even last two days. And it took just one Abacha to silence the most successful man from the suffersticated and diabolic Yoruba tribe, MKO Abiola - the Field Marshall of Odua Kingdom and nothing happened. Fact# After 45 years of the Biafran war, the entire Yoruba tribe that is filled with loudmouthed, suffersticated and diabolic cowards dare not think of it, not to mention trying what a 30 year old Ojukwu did. Are you not bloody cowards? Aren't you ashamed that it took over 200 ethnic nationalities in Nigeria and the Western powers to stop a 30 year old brave man? Need I remind you also of how a Yoruba Army General, Oladipo Diya, wept like a kid before a junior officer because he was afraid of his life...after wilfully and knowingly plotting a coup? If you are even worth your silly rantings, you should have installed an Oba in Ilorin. But since you couldn't, you remain a piss in the wind! To every Yoruba person out there, the peace-loving people of the Great Igbo Nation are no cowards. Igbos never initiate clashes but they never turn their backs on any fight. They do not hide behind the handset or keyboard to sing war songs on the internet. It will do you much good to channel your negative energies towards consolidating your OduaArewanistan republic and stopping the ritual-killings pervading your juju-infested enclave. Warn your miserable Yorubbish folks to cease impersonating and camouflaging as SE and SS people on the internet to attempt to quench the call for self-determination. Tell them to quit running amok on almost every Igbo thread on NL. 3 Likes 1 Share |
