babaolofin:


When did Oba says Lagos is not Oodua Land? The present Oba of Lagos merely spoke of the the throne. No King of Lagos has ever said that . The land of Lagos belongs to the Idejos who are the grandchildren of OluIwa. This is known to the Aworis. There is a little difference between the Ibos and Binis.

Yebosola:
Baba, enough of this epistles, re invigorate your PDP and win Lagos, then form your Govt with Lagosians, Awon agba tio tole, are they not Yorubas again? This are set of elders giving Omoluabis bad names, before u know it IPOB miscreants will flood the thread and be vomiting gibberish.

Interesting
It seems a lot of tribes are claiming Lagos
Igbos
Bini
Hausa
Indegenous Lagosians
Foreign Lagosians

What do I know self

obembet:


So all your Party members in Lagos are lagosian? Or all ur candidate are lagosian?

Mr. ex convict, don't divide us please.. We Yoruba are one.

Aregbesola is from kogi and govern Osun state for 8 yrs. So leave that matter and focus on how ur party will will Edo and Ondo state

SaintBeehot:
Lagos belong to people from epe only. Since it as being seperated for the western region, it became a no mans land.

NOC1:
Some post are worthless, if they are not Lagosians who are they?
According to history the only people who can claim to be true Lagosians are those from Badagary, who eventually migrated to island with slave traders.
If you are looking for true Lagosian to govern Lagos it might be impossible. But those guys know not any other home except Lagos, they where born and brought up in Lagos.

thesicilian:


What a flawed argument. So anybody whose parents built a house in any state is automatically an indigene of that state?

Not that I myself am a Lagosian by birth, but having lived, worked and paid taxes all these years in Lagos I consider myself a Lagosian except the constitution of the state says otherwise and clearly spells out who is a citizen or not.

Besides it is a well known fact that for almost any place that experiences rapid development, the lines between indigenes and foreigners become blurred over a period of time that you can hardly tell, especially when they bear the same names and speak same language. The last president of America was of African descent and the current one is part German.

AgbariOjukwu1:
Same Bode George that gave slots to Igbos to contest in Lagos State. After trying everything possible to win Lagos, he has resorted to politics of division which obviously won't work.

TEDHorsePower:
The original Lagos indigenes have spoken. Yoroobas should leave Lagos and go back to their villages in Osun, Ondo, Ekiti, Ogun, Oyo

Aregbesola from kogi kwa! Stop political talk!

Caseless:
ipod, what says thou? The hypocrites won't support bode george or pdp on this wild goose chase because this position goes against their belief of 'nomanslandness' of lagos.

Throwback:



Above is the classic case of what I have opined several times.

Bode George and his group are protesting against fellow Lagos politicians, but a typical clansman with victim mentality has made the protest a matter of "Igbo envy".

Must these clowns find relevance in every matter that does not concern them, while posing as the victim of the matter?

Please, what is the correlation between the topic and the insecurities of the Igbos?

The clown who is talking about envy might even be a gala hawker who daily retires to his 1room in Ajegunle.

Tinubu is very influential, No one can be like him in Nigeria for now, Akpabio tried and failed, Tinubu influence won Osun election, Now Oshomole want too try his luck, we will know who re the real politicians by 2023 after all Ex-Governors tried to tow Tinubu part.

Kriss216:

Lol
Your mother's tribe betrayed their true brother Ambode for a foreigner Sanwo Olu.

Noel19:


Werey, Oponu! You'll Continue screaming Ipob, Igbos and bla bla bla until you die. Even your children will take after you while Igbos will continue strategizing, working hard and smart and making money.

ykalhaji:


Yes, let us be one in your own father's and Motherland. If Yoruba are one why can't we be one with all Nigeria. The Yoruba's from the hinterlands are really the ones taking a piss on the real indegenes of Lagos not Nigerians from the east. Imagine 3 Senators not originally even born in Lagos. What the Bleep

You want to dominate Lagos and you say trash about Lagos being Yorubaland, no bro Lagos is Aworiland and Aworis are cousins to other Omo Odua children from Brazil to, US, UK, Sierra Leone, Ghana, Togo, Benin, Ife, Ibadan, Ondo, Aniomaland in Delta. But we are 1st and foremost Awori.

Omoslim26:


shameless bunch of idiot

go to other forums you would see people make meaningful and intelligent comments on a discuss but here the only thing you and your lot have to offer is this childish yoruba vs igbo nonsense

ifeele ah di e mee unu

Noneroone:
quit saying trash. This has been going on for long. Even the oba of Lagos says that Lagos is not yorubaland. its not politics, it's a known fact.

emkz:
But Mr Bode George was governor of Ondo State (1988-1990), why did he not reject the appointment since he wasn't an indigene of Ondo State?

If Lagos (the center of excellence) had been thinking so ignorantly like this, that state would have been backward like so many other states.

Bayo Osinowo, James Faleke, Ben Akabueze, Yemi Osinbajo, Rauf Aregbesola et al are not indigenes of Lagos State, but they served the state meritoriously. Jeb Bush, originally from Texas, was governor of Florida; Hillary Clinton, born in Chicago, was a US Senator from New York. So long as you deliver, who should give a rat's ass where you come from? Perhaps, we should interrogate Bode George to explain his family ancestry, and what qualifies someone to be a citizen of a state and having equal rights as so-called "indigenes".

BTW, two members of the LSHA representing Oshodi (where Ladipo market is) and Amuwo Odofin were Igbo and PDP members. An Igbo man even won a House of Representatives seat under the PDP. If PDP wants to ever be relevant in Lagos State, it may make sense to start looking for the best and pushing them forward, and stop playing indigenes versus settlers politics. We are sick of these games. Present your plan for the state. Tell us what the ruling party is doing wrong and how you can improve. Preparation to Buhari winning in 2015 started in 2011. You cannot be asleep and wake up few months to elections and start campaigning vigorously, expecting the people to take you seriously.

I don't understand, so the criteria for leadership in Lagos is that you must be Yoruba even though you are not from the state whereas an igbo man or a bini man cannot be governor even though he was born and bred in Lagos
