Remarkable:


I am calling my cousins in FESTAC to ask them to support and vote Jimi... how can you threaten an Igbo man? That's the last thing any wise Nigerian will do. Let's see when the heavens fall if some will be spared while crushing others. Nansense.

I am a yoruba man, I know the king might have been out of lead to have expressed himself that way but that doesnt mean he has no point...he only adressed it poorly. I wanna appeal to yhe Igbos to pls be fair and for once not act selfish in choosin a leader. just as the Oba was uttered disrespectul word so also has the leaders of yur tribe in lagos done worse. the yorubas gave wat we all know we can never get in your own land out of maturity and justice, the same law that giudes you guides the yy yoruba man yet out of wat id call greed or self centredness u say its not enough, u want the whole thing...the choice of words, the actions portrayed with the presidential election clearly states that. such actions tells u really dont respect the wishes of those who accommodates you with peace n love. u really dont mind destroying wat has been carefully built over 16yrs to have way to ur personal gains...to me ins not about jimi or Ambode or who ever...its the attitude thats disrespectul to the indegenes who offered you a level playing field that defines howyou would be seen after d elections irrespective of who wins

If this is true, the oba should be arrested immediately for threatening the peace of the land. And I don't think his juju is that potent. And his kits and kins are cowards.

I don't want to believe that the Oba of Lagos said those words. If it were true though, it is unbecoming of the Oba. When did he become a card carrying member of the APC? Is he saying that no Yoruba person voted for PDP?. He should be neutral. All power belongs to GOD.

Let people vote without fear or intimidation.
It is well by GOD's special grace. AMEN

SirShymexx:


What type of competition are you alluding to? Lagos state at the moment has embarked on massive project, and obviously based on how naij is, it needs a lot of soft-landing from the center. And it's only right that it aligns with it, to execute and complete those projects. After this, they'll have no excuse whatsoever. That's the only sane place in naija that looks like a proper city - why mess it up? The place needs special recognition, to attain its potentials.

Moreover, isn't the PDP guy the same clown who said he'll reduce the price of land in Lagos? The plonker is a cowboy!

I'm just saying Lagos don't necessarily have to align with the central before things get done. But I'm one undecided voter........ I also want to witness what will change if Lagos align with the central.

Guy, that is not the import of the Oba's stern warning. Igbos in Lagos contested for and won 3 or 4 HOR seats, under d PDP. These were seats hitherto occupied by APC. Pls tell me, in which other part of Naija is this 'madness' possible?
I told people around me after d result for Lagos presidential election was released that it is because d elders in Lagos allowed d 'madness' of Igbos clinching d tickets of pdp in Lagos, thats why the
slim margin btw gmb and gej in that election.
Now that same 'madness' is back to bite Lagos natives again, if care isn't taken, jimi go floor ambode dis weekend, and its gonna be attributable to d block votes of Igbos in Lagos.

That explain why Hausa people slay the ibos all time , they never ever respect their host. They make mess of their land , find favour in another mans land only to claim to it saying it belongs to them. A Yoruba man will not attempt all they were doing in aba or abakaliki and I don't see any South east state make a Yoruba man commisioner. So it's a choice, face the business you are here for and stay out of politics or you may as well go back home in droves and develop your land if you believe in fairness !

MayorofLagos:


Mbu was not posted to zone 2 in respect of democracy. He was brought in as a enabler to repeat Obanikoro shenanigans in Ekiti.

In his first week in zine 2 Mbu went around threatening and issuing intimidations, with promise of death!

Do you Ibos think we Yorubas are stuck at the level of political blindness that you find difficult to come out of?

We see and hear....and we take note!

You need others to embrace spirit of democracy when you are at disadvantage but when the wind of favor is on your side its because of your superior achievements.

Well use your supetiority to free yourself from this calamity bind.

First of all, I am not Igbo. I do not have to be Igbo to recognise hypocritical comments. How you can even try to justify what your Oba has said is baffling.

Secondly, I do not see how Mbu is relevant to this discussion. If he was used as a political tool by virtue of his office I don't see how his actions relates to the igbo community as a whole and the main topic of discourse here.

Thirdly, were Mbu's threats and intimidations issued to a particular tribe on the basis of their choice of candidate?

You need to avoid sentimental judgment.

Mumu like you...if you r sensible enof u will know that the economy of Lagos is built by the igbo residents. How many yoruba man pay tax here in lagos? Is it not agberoism that ur pple do? You can't force the igbos who they will vote because everyone has his/her civil right to vote for whom them deem right for them....Lastly I listened to the Oba speak yestrday and he never said all these but only said he wants Ambode to become the next elect.

I don't knw how true this is but its possible, considering the way he spoke to jonathan, when jonathan and agbaje visisted him.

If this man is a mouth piece for the yorubas...and they support what he said, well if the head is sick the whole body must be in trouble,evidently these are the words of a psyco. I can't blame his ignorance because the people he is threatning are probably his fellow fetish and ignorants like him.
These are the words of a coward, whose scared silly and if he has such powers he should use it on the electrote he's threatened by, why threaten peace loving people?

He's should go the the oba of onitsha and just listen to him speak..shame will cover his bleached out face.

The fact that it was reported in many national newspapers doesn't make it true.

many newspapers and tv stations carried all the false information abt Buhari. You hv been in Nigeria enough to know what politicians can do to get votes.

deception is everywhere. Don't be fooled. Vote your conscience.

I am beginning to ask questions if Jimi Agbaje is an Igbo man.
In democracy people vote who ever they believe spoke to there issues.
If Jimi did a better job convincing people why the threats and rants.
Is he less of a yoruba man?
Is igbo the only tribe in Lagos?
Nigerians have awaken to the choice of voting candidates irrespective of political party. I have a million Yorubas who are fed up with the present administration and it's power brokers.
Those people voted APC at federal level and have decided on PDP in Lagos state.

I really don't understand why the IGBOs are taking the blame for the failures of an outgoing administration.
This is a disappointment coming from a man leaning towards a political party who spent the past 4 yrs accusing the outgoing president of tribal and religious divides.

My people, don't let them divide us. Don't let this spiteful article by the opposition be the reason you give Lagos to the incompetent PDP. LET'S VOTE AMBODE FOR CONTINUITY.

The Oba is a well respected man, and will never such silly statement even if he support Ambode. Try to make use of your brain for once.

The Stvpidity of Certain folks on this thread is Alarming.

Despite their enlightenment, their tribal bigotry would get the average ab0ki staring in amazement.

A man threatens a human being like you for making a choice, and you go ahead to sing his praises?

This shows the kind of future that lies in wait for you and your generations.

So, the retarded thinking man thinks it's only his juju that is effective....tell him he has never heard of trans-oceanal juju.

What ineptitude and aggravated nonsense is this!

What kind of oppression and gagging is this.

undecided

My comprehension skills are very much intact sir.

Go through my posts again. I have been as clear and direct as possible. For the very last time: Neither you nor your monarch (if indeed he made those comments) can coerce free citizens of this Republic to vote for your preferred candidate. You don't have the right, authority or power to do so. For you to come on here to brazenly justify this attempted sacrilege it means you are not worthy or ready to live in a free and democratic society despite your pretense to the contrary.


On second thoughts - don't bother going through my posts again. You are very much aware of the key issue here since I made my position very clear from the onset. Your decision to go off on a tangent about Ozu River, Ekitigate, etc. undecided was a weak, poorly disguised attempt at diversion. I am not taking the bait.

You will be held accountable on this thread - any misleading information or assertion from you will be swiftly challenged. You can take that to the bank.


The Igbo's are a buncha thoughtless and senseless pack. Trying to talk sense into them will make no sense as this has always yielded no effort in the past. Coercion and violence is the language that activates their senses and the Obas message is appropriate, necessary and timely.
