Yeah please continue praying for Nigeria.

Your sweetie eh? Please you can tell me, is it Oziomatv? lol. Just joking. No wonder your not even taking this mini-battle seriously you have other 'peeps' to attend to. I have to admit sometimes I get a bit too engulfed in these arguments, like this is where things begin and end. If people don't listen here I have to remember that there are others out there who probably will.

sorry if i offended you, i apologise.

How can you call someone are racist and then do worst?
@wendymanda
I wasn't trying to disrespect your folks in anyway, i just hate ethnocentrism and when some dude who is soooooo frustrated with life starts spewing hate, i decided to put him back in his place and tell he ain't so special at all and that he is just like every other human being in naija irrespective of ethnicity, so he should stop having that sense of entitlement or superiority to everyone else of a different  ethnicity in naija. His people are just actors on the stage like every other ethnicity in the country or in the world and there is no "special" or "chosen" race, y'all just human beings like everybody else in the world. Nigerians are nigerians, and they are entitled to reside in any part of the country end of story. Here in yanki, we boast of our diversity and not that any ethnicity or culture is better than the other but all should be appreciated, in naija its the other way round. Can you imagine how the world would be if we were all one skin color and one culture, it would be extremely horrible and bland, God has taste and variety that's why we are not all homogenous.

Re: Are Igbos Taking Over Lagos? by naijawebe(m): 7:57am On Jan 04, 2008
What exactly is our problem in this country. Igbo, Yoruba. The same old story and taking us back to 1966 civil war, now it will be ethnic cleansing. What a shame, never proud to be a Nigerian. 419 - The rush to be a millionaire, same igbo and yoruba. Do I get a flap for this, absolutely you bet. I am sick of your TRIBAL SENTIMENTS, and please get off it. It is high time we all see ourselves as just ONE NIGERIAN, and not a part of a whole. AWO and ZIK are gone, and please lets live life as normal human beings do in the civilized WORLD

HAPPY NEW YEAR TO ALL.
MAKE PEACE AND LOVE, AND NOT WAR!!

@davidif

I could have called you names or use few choice words to qualify a jackass such as you but it will not guaranty dividends because you lacked what used to be known as common sense.

If Aba or Onitsha was declared capital of Nigeria and national resources were being lavished on either of the cities as the country did with Lagos since 1950s, Aba or Onitsha would have been better than Lagos in considerable phases of human endeavors.

Aba and Onitsha are not even state capitals yet they are the only cities in the jungle mentioned in some capacities with Lagos. As a city formerly known as nation’s and state’s capital, Lagos is a stereotype of failure and epitome of social malaise across the jungle.

once again it has turned to a tribe issue.

Anyway now, i think that In that country there are only 2 tribes:

Tribe 1  : The people stealing all the money.
tribe 2  : The  suffering masses.

chikena!!!

Come what may,there will only be those 2 tribes. The rest are here  dragging and killing themselves for zilch.

Una dey here dey drag while IBB and Nzeribe dey play golf for germany while OBJ and Abacha son dey watch.
Una dey crase for here. cheesy cheesy cheesy
