You got it, the [b]aworis [/b]have already disowned them -[b]yoroobas. [/b]So now the aworis needs Igbos to properly evacuate all the Yorubas from lagos afterwards lagos does not belong to the awori people.  

They have sold all their land and run owambe party with it. Silly sick Yorubas  

Yeperipa,

Very soon your IBO unions(Obiagu1 and co) will claim :

Aworis are not Yorubas.

Aworis are Ibos.

Even LA is not meant for all Americans, Money rule the world
if you have it come to the table, if you don't, pls pack your poverty stricken self to oblivion

Its a good thing you recognize that because Ibos have been living in Lagos since the time of Ojuku father. . . and then Zik came in and then more of you came in. . . .yet, Lagos rulership has never been in ibo hand.   Yoruba has been governor, Midwesterner has been governor, Midbelt has been governor, Northerner has been governor. . . . . but ibo, the chief financier and group that bankroll the economy (as you put it) has never been in power.  

what does that tell you?   You are a looser!   Peple that dont have property or finance Lagos are ruling over you.  Arent you ashamed?

This time around we wont accept only 3 million poor souls like 1970, we are going to end it by cutting off the head of the snake completely. Common occupy Nigeria protest they couldn't open shops in  Lagos due to fear of Alaye boyz. Them fit!!!

Let the Abokis reduce them by 30% from northern angle, then we move in and run them down. They keep on making mouth while Aboki are killing them even in the east.

1970 blah blah blah plsssssssssssssssss
thanks for the info, so it took us just from 1970  to take over Lagos, interesting
so by 2050 we would have taken over SW.
cos Lagos gone, my people are taking over ogun state now
talking about muwe, agbara, all the private esates by lagos ibadan express way, and still counting
tell me more

rule what
keep your ruler-ship, we cant afford to be distracted from making money
as long as we buy over Alausa and make you tenants their no problem
we are peace loving people nah

It saddens me that Igbos dont really understand the capacity of their POWER!! We dont need to be in the government house before we can dictate policy of the government nor control economic and political ideologies!! Thats why I called you bunch a grass eating goats!! In America,people know the financial muscle of the Jewish folks and know that they play important role in Americas government policy making,yet,they are prolly the smallest yet everybody fears them!! You have no brains at all!! Fashola your papa knows this; Igbos are determined to hijack lagos not culturally but economically!! I will not say much here before you start killing my ppl in lagos out of ur uncontrolable hate!!

haha too much political filaga filetable going on here that most of the comments are not even worth reading. but i find this comment to be very true


"The SE is live and let live, while the SW thinks everyone must speak and act Yoruba"

^
bros, no be lie!

and even people who do, they would rub it on their faces that they are not the real yorubas but assimilated yorubas

and i can't stand some of the other dumbshit they say. imagine someone telling u, u nor spell ur papa name well becos the real yorubas nor dey add "k" join "p" as if say na yoruba invent alphabet a to z.

Why una no fit open shops during occup Nigeria? No bi una bi majority? No bi un get Lagos??

Aboki still they call Igbo "oga" but when to sluagter Igbo reach him go close im eye slaughter Igbo like nama. Igbos like to they make mouth, yet they keep burying their deaths like chicken, time after time without reprisals.  

Look at how they fled Kano en mass?? last year, Adrew Uweh was baosting about how mighty Igbos are in Kano and their ability to face anybody and all that, just two suicide bomb attacks all the Igbos are shouting "MAYDAY!" from Kano

Why didn't you use your ECONOMIC POWER to stop the killing of your people in the North.

. . . . but you dont control the economy of Lagos.  Before you got to Lagos. . . there were Ijebus, Egbas, Binis, Hausas, Offas, even Lebanese. . . . .old powerful and aristocratic wealth.   Elitism go with power. . .aristocracy go with power.    You have neither!  your control is in mouth, not reflected in the tangible indicators of wealth. . . . political power, earistocrat influence.   You get the gist now?

Hahhahahahhaha.
I have never seen a specie like yorovas.

They were waiting for the stock market to do owambe party, but when the stock market eventually crashed they all went to the street begging like their hausa cousins up north. Bunch of baboons

Una still dey wait for stock market. eddiots

Economically that is the key word
when you put up Alausa for sale don't forget to telll us

WE NO BE MATE, NO NEED TO HATE

Its good that Oba of benin and many other now know Igbos for who they are, if you try to do any business in yiboland they will make sure you don't succeed but they like to swarm other people's land like bees looking for nectar. To a Igbo man money maketh a man no wonder they'll do anything to make money even if involves killing their own!

I'm not surprised they want to lay claim to benin becos they know they'll not be able to feed themselves after getting their biafra now they want fertile benin land to farm knowing fully well that in Igbo land you need tons and tons of fertilizer to grow some few kwashiorkor like cassava no wonder there are many vultures in yiboland.

which gist  
i get am before no be property
i hope you have paid this year's rent (to ndigbo)
economic power have changed hands a very long time ago
stop living in yesteryears  

occupy wetin
banks were not opened , so where will you get money to pay for the goods
and where will i deposit the millions i would have sold that day
you see its all common sense bro

yorubas you've all disgraced me. yall know tha silence is the best answer right so why get involve with this madness, infact you guys should refrain from answering any insult directed at yorubas cuz haters will always hate on what they can't have or be, infact let them claim all yoruba land hmm na dem sabi, edo's have spoken they wanna be with the east so be it, less burden for the SW if Nigeria eventually splits.

^
i pray they heed ur advice and let the thread die! but knowing yorubas they will always want to have the last word esp the likes of tufia.

and btw, when nigeria splits the SW will be the ones to suffer most from igbo domination, because apart from economics, igbos have been able penetrate yoruba households with igbo pvssy coz we all know yorubas are the ones marrying igbo women in numbers while looking over their own. but igbo men for most part do not marry yoruba women. so which yoruba man go get liver carry gun to kill e wife papa and family? haha

This got me laughing so loud!
Actually there are Igbo boys getting married to Yoruba women these days.


Can you believe that before the war Igbo men were getting married to yoruba women at a high rate but all changed after the war?
Yoruba begin marry Igbo women in high numbers after the war. E just be like say their eyes just open for Igbo women.

But things dey almost dey even now.

No ask me for source.

"Actually there are Igbo boys getting married to Yoruba women these days."

"But things dey almost dey even now."

errr, i don't think so, but if u say so . . .ok!

yes thanks we will suffer from the domination, no thanks thread closed.

^^^ once nigeria breaks up,we will collect back all our Igbo daughters who married yoruba men,together with their children and take them to Biafra.It is no secret that most people born to Igbo-yoruba intermarriage do not get along well with yorubas,they are more confortable with Igbos and other southern tribes.We will not abandon our sisters to hostile in-laws and yorubas in yorubaland.

please you can have them, more wealth to go round

^^^yorubas will keep on disgracing themselves.you shouldnt be surprised.

I wonder if the level of Igbo-Yoruba rivalry on Nairaland actually exists. Most people involved in this seem to be Lagosians. Here in PH, Yorubas and Igbos get along so well and we talk less about Awololowo,Ojukwu and Zik.

Maybe most people on here are old enough to bear old time grudges. I just can't understand.

Ovbia Oba Edun Agharese Akenzua, in his book: Ekaladerhan, tells us that while the Oba of Benin was visiting Ife on November 11, 1982, the Ooni said in part……”As we have mentioned briefly during our historic visit to your domain not too long ago, we said that we were there to pat you on the back for a job well done. Your present visit we regard as a short homecoming, where you will[b] have an opportunity to commune with those deities you left behind[/b]. Now my son and brother, long may you reign.” “The address suggested that the people of Benin, or at least, the Royal Family, owe their origin to Ile-Ife. In the prelude of his response to the Ooni’s welcome address, the Oba of Benin tacitly rebutted the submission.” “The Oba said: If the Ooni of Ife calls the Oba of Benin his son and the Oba of Benin calls the Ooni of Ife his son, they are both right.” “The Oba did not elaborate, but in the womb of that innocuous assertion is the fetus of a story, which had never been told in full. In both Benin and Uhe, the story is told with varying details.”

^^^^
How about this?? ?

Besides, the most sacred name for Ife is ‘Uhe’ a (non-Yoruba), deep and strong Bini word, meaning virgin or womanliness depending on how it is pronounced, and is interpreted in myth as ‘innocence,’ ‘the birth canal,’ or ‘the source of life.’ Also, no major Ifa ritual or ceremony in Ife even now is considered authentic, blessed by or acceptable to the gods and ancestors, without the presence and involvement of relevant Bini traditional faith custodians. The dress culture of Ife chiefs and priests is from Bini court.

^^^^

. . . and this??

As far as am concern you guys can keep on #occupying your stuupidity!

I don't think Uhe means virgin/innocence/source in Edo, that is a different uhe, with the e at the end pronounced differently.Uhe is the same word as Ufe, which is what some Yorubas still call Ife. Uhe/Ufe/Ife are all the same word. The uhe referred to as meaning innocence/virgin/source also can mean the lower end or lower part of something (and hence the source), and the e at the end of that uhe is pronounced different from the e at the end of Uhe meaning Ufe/Ife.  The notion that the latter is derived from the former sounds like conjecture to me, but I may be wrong.


[edited, noticed an error]

The dress culture of Ife chiefs and priests is from Bini court.

Just wondering, but do any Ife chiefs or priests wear wrappers today? Because I haven't seen any. The Ife bronzes show rulers or dignitaries wearing wrappers, but I think they've all changed style since long ago to the kind of agbadas and other outfits seen elsewhere in Yorubaland. Even if the dress culture of Benin and Ife were at one time the same or similar (although wrappers seem to have been used throughout parts of West Africa), the Ife court dress culture today is obviously different. All the pictures I have seen of Ife chiefs are in modern Yoruba clothing.
