Why i ask this question is because i have not seen any igbo claiming they are from kano, sotoko or Borno but they are quick they say they are from SW states especially Lagos with the excuse that they born them there, is it that they dont live or born in other places aside Lagos?

This is becoming weird day by day, why are igbos not claiming other states since its one Nigeria and they have right to claim anywhere they want ??

I hope this question is asked with pure intention and devoid of ethnic profiling.

The answer is yes, coming from someone who has spent quality time in the ‘north’ North. I've seen quite a few. They always have the northern accent and they seem cool and friendlier than Igbos in the West.

My best friend is Bauchi raised Igbo, dude’s the best man I've seen, he's more a brother to me than my blood bro.

So the Igbos who were your classmates in primary and secondary school, used to fill Osun, Oyo, Ogun etc as their state of origin?

What's Yoruba fixation with Lagos?

Its FEAR masqueraded with hatred.

They have opened another tribe baiting thread..but the funniest thing about it is that they are all failures and worthless idiots.

Let dem keep hating , while IGBOs have proven to be real NIGGAZ that bring value.

Sophisticated foolishness is generational...ask Awolowo...

Mumu man

Fear!

They dare not try any nonsense in those places you mentioned because the day they try it might be their last day on earth
They've been there many times so they know what's up.

I doubt they can even cross their boundaries in some SW states also like Oyo and some places in Osun

Don't go and hustle and make enough money and start buying properties everywhere like Igbos so that you will have bragging right like them too. You claim Lagos as Yoruba, but Igbos own the properties that makes Lagos what it is. Lazy ass

Lagos is a former FCT and therefore a nomansland. Kano does not have the same status.

There are even 4th Generation Yorubas in Kaduna that claim Ogbomosho Oyo State

Amumaigwe:


Lagos is a former FCT and therefore a nomansland. Kano does not have the same status.

Lagos Island was the Capital not Lagos State
Lokoja was also Capita
99% of Lagos State Land Mass was carved out of Awolowo's Yoruba Western Region in 1967
It wasn't part of the Capital and 95% of Lagos State Population live there

Amumaigwe:


Lagos is a former FCT and therefore a nomansland. Kano does not have the same status.

Why u no claim kogi state or calabar since they are all former capital.
Moreover only Lagos Island which is not even up to 4% of current Lagos state was former capital, you can see you still don't make sense

All of them are now claiming Lagos indegene. But we know that Shukwundi and Shinaza are not children of Oduduwa.

The Igbanke people of Edo are Igbos

They are Edos and have been in their location for many Centuries

AbaganaMiracle:

Because Lagos is Yorubaland
And Yorubaland is Yoruba Homeland

Doesn't matter in they've been there for thousands of years. From Igbanke all the way to Benue to Rivers....Igbos stretches across.

You're looking at boundaries created by the colonialists and military. The Igbos are in Edo, Delta, Imo, Enugu, Abia, Anambra, Rivers, Akwa-Ibom, Benue, Kogi, Ebonyi

Not even Tinubu is from Lagos, but claimed Lagos and became its Governor. Sanwo-Olu did the same

The Igbanke are even Edo and part of the Oduduwa Commonwealth
They answer to the Oba of Benin

Stop eyeing others territory

They're Igbos. Again, you're looking at boundaries created by govts. They speak Igbo language and their culture is Igbo

And every Taofik and Tijani from Kwara in Northern Nigeria is claiming Lagos state as their state origin.

Igbanke are part of the Oduduwa Commonwealth under Oba of Benin

It was not created by the Government the British met them there

Igbos don’t have kings

Igbanke do

Op your brain is as tiny as ewedu seed. What kind of a foolish thread is this.

Suit yourself, I have told you because I had close relationships with Igbanke people and we hear each other when we speak

Chukwudi and Chinaza are not children of Oduduwa and will NEVER be because God created them in His own image and likeness, they are already God's children and can't be children of a lesser god.

AbaganaMiracle:

They are not migrants to anywhere, their forebears built houses and settled down, as is their wont, in the Western Region part of the present Lagos state.

Because the government decided to create a new state that encroaches into Western Region does not make them migrants.

They moved from one Yoruba speaking part of Western state to another, chikena. They are at home and should be allowed to relax in peace within their fathers house, so to speak.
