Just as your ancestors were chased out of Isreal and your fathers were chased out of Nigeria, you flatheaded miscreants would soon be kicked out of Yorubaland.

A few months ago, the Hausa Fulanis chased you ingrates out of Hausaland but your shameless fathers went on a regional begging tour to all the Northern States.

My people lets stop saying this nonsense. Orji Kalu started this rubbish - as a political plow to distract from his abysmal failure in Abia state. If you like say this thing a million times - It does not change the reality that Yorubas run Lagos. Have you lived in Lagos? I lived there for many years, so I know what I am talking about.

We need to stop all this nonsense and concentrate on building and developing the SE. All this time we have been shouting Lagos is no man's land where has it gotten us? Biko lets buy sense! If we concentrate our efforts and divert more of our resources back home, with 2 decades the SE will become the envy of not just other regions but of the entire African continent.

Mods, Please take this to front page so I can have this discussion with my brothers and sisters. Thank you.

I am not Igbo, but God bless you !

That's the difference between Yorubas and most Igbos. We're analytical while Igbos are emotional.

You're looking at it from the angle of 'e pain am', I'm looking at the next 99 years when your C of Os would expire.

Lagos is a no man's land and the narrative is simple............. The yoruba may more in number but the no man-ness of Lagos is economically based.........

Every Nigerian contributed/is contributing to the growth of Lagos, the federal government used/uses money gotten from all over the country to build Lagos the more, all ethnic group in Nigeria are scampering to Lagos in other to gain back their resources used by FG to build Lagos, Thus making Lagos A NO MANS LAND.......... If e vex una ask federal government to construct federal roads, ports and airports in other region just like it's in Lagos..............

Lagos = NO MANS LAND

AND NNAEZE NDIGBO PROVIDED MONEY USED TO BUILD IGBOLAND grin

IF NOT,THEN THE WHOLE IGBOLAND IS A NO MANS LAND GOING BY YOU IPOB TERRORISTS LOW I.Q LOGIC

I very much doubt if you are Igbo with this azz-licking and ridiculous heading. You could simply ask Igbos to invest in Igbo land without having to bring up the issue of Lagos into it.

Lagos has never been a Yoruba Land. 97% of Yorubas in lagos are immigrants just like the Igbos, Hausas, Binis and other SS peoples. It is and will always remain a cosmopolitan entity for the entire nation. Yorubas are more in Lagos because of the proximity of core Yoruba states to Lagos.

Igbos are many there because of our ubiquitous and adventurous nature.

Igbos should invest more in Igbo states. I agree. But that has nothing to do with Lagos being 'no man's land'. Stop sucking up to Yorubas. that is if you are actually Igbo.
Oga, tell your father to jump over ondo, osun, oyo and ogun states to be the gov of Lagos state since it does not belong to yorubas. At least, no one will challenge you in your imaginary no man's land.

Bla bla bla. Analyze my black arse. Keep fooling yourselves, as suffersticated.

You analyze your city into 'No Man's Land', and analyzed yourself into Buhari's scrotum. Keep analyzing!

99 years indeed. What about those that have expired as we speak? Or is Lagos less than 99 years old? Do you even have an idea what "change" can cause tomorrow?

On the contrary, I don't want Igbos to stop calling Lagos no-man's Land and I'll state my reasons.

Yorubas welcomed Igbos with an open hand and returned their abandoned properties after the war. Meanwhile, Igboid groups in present-day Rivers and Bayelsa states refused to return confiscated Igbo properties.

Nigerians from all ethnicities come to Lagos, live, trade, work, build and retire here. However, Igbos ignored the landowners and contributions of everyone and are selfishly but are foolishly claiming they developed Lagos.

The problem some Igbos have is that they have short memories. They've forgotten that as at when the Portuguese landed in Lagos, they had not yet finished trekking from Isreal or wherever they were downloaded from.

Yoruba are very welcoming and accommodating but won't tolerate nonsense. When these Igbos started this noise, we warned the liberal Yorubas but they said we were paranoid. Now, a lot of Yorubas are seeing the hate and bitterness that Igbos wish upon us and are now waking up.

During the last LG elections, all LG seats in Festac, Ojo Alaba, Amuwo and other areas with large Igbo population were collected and are firmly in the hand of Yorubas. In 2019, we're collecting our seats from those Igbos representatives and HOA members.

The environmental sanitation is presently political. When we're through with that, we move to other areas. By the time we ban gala and Fan yogo hawking in Lagos and the economy of a whole Igbo state crumbles cos of that, maybe you'll have sense.

Let Igbos keep calling Lagos No man's land, it serves to wake up the consciousness of liberal Yorubas. Mind you, the quiet Yoruba man is the most dangerous. The revolution would not be televised.


I am igbo and support whatever you wish to put these menace away

Normadic tribe!!! IBO's must leave their land in order to survive. There must so much poverty in that land. If your land is developed, I see no reason why you must travel en masse out of it.

I guess by this analysis, the European who left their lands to colonize Africa did so because they were poor and their land undeveloped?
Keep looking for reasons why we travel, while we target other yoruba cities to colonize! grin grin grin

Check them well, they are from other Yoruba states not Lagos, I don't know why they see the Igbo's (fellow Nigerians) as an enemy, thinking because they are from other parts, they are entitled to claiming Lagos.
They fail to acknowledge the truth.
