Why won't u find it funny when all u do on nl is to be looking for anti-Igbo threads to spite them?

I expect Oba Akiolu's statement to be condemned by all. Well except by people like you and dr Ariyo

When did voting a candidate of your choice become a crime in Nigeria? Exactly!!!!!


Oh by the way, proudly 5%

On Nairaland, they seem to...


Not in real life. .... The tide was just against Jonathan this past election , not forgetting that The same Yorubas voted for an Ijaw in 2011, and even this year, he still won at least 35% of their votes.... is that your definition of hate?
What you see happening on nairaland is called 'Group act" or group behaviour.
You will be surprised an Igbo woman with a Yoruba husband will still come here with a secret moniker to poke fun at her husband's people.

Lagos is Nigerian land- Nigeria's former capital and was built with Nigerian oil resources. The international airport (Murtala Muhammad Airport and deep sea ports) gave Lagos big advantages.

Lagos belongs to everybody - Yoruba, Igbo and Hausa and others included. So go tell a Hausa land owner or Igbo land owner that bought the property with their hard earned money and sweat and tears that the land is not theirs.

People (including the Oba of Lagos) need to be more guarded in their comments. But it is also clear that the Oba of Lagos in the heat of election cycle mispoke.

Yeah?? What did the Oba do?
He didn't even mention Igbos in his entire speech, mind you.
He spoke metaphorically (but everyone knew he was referring to Igbos) about the situation. So what did he do exactly, because all I know about is just his speech.

Also, If only you can read global Geo-politics, you will know Nigeria as it exists today, is going no where.
The most that can happen is Fiscal federalism of the country's constituent parts.... ala 1963

What about the Igbo that were actively present when the Oba made the speech and cheered him on? They even clapped after he had made the speech, sef. I hope their names were also tabled before the ICC. undecided

The people that filed the claim should withdraw it. This has got to be the most stupid thing they have done. Lets just assume that the Oba is charged and is arrested. What will be the after effects on igbos in Lagos.


What should be the resultant effect on Igbos? How does making a man take responsibility of his actions got to do with the Igbo Lagosians?

Imagine the devilish hypocrisy of those people. They assume sleeping dogs shouldn't be allowed to lie yet want us to, just like Reverend Kukawa, let bygones be bygones over Jonathan's regime's unmitigated stealing.

I condemned the Oba statement then and still hold the opinion it was very provocative and unbecoming of a figure his standing in the society- but some people who see people like Nnamdi Kanuwa et al who preach the extermination of a people as role models have no right whatsoever demanding such justice.

Did you even understand what I wrote at all What do you mean by "have you proven the bolded"?? People are saying Jonathan's regime is gone and we should forgot about probing him and just move on (let sleeping dogs lie) and you ask "have you proven the bolded"?? What manner of upside down reasoning is that?? What exactly should I prove: that he shouldn't be probed or that you guys don't hold the opinion he shouldn't be probed??

As regards how it relates to this issue, I'm saying you people are hypocrites to say we should let sleeping dogs lie on over Jonathan's regime while in the same breath state Oba's case should be investigated. But I'm not surprised though, warped logic has always been the cornerstone of you guys' MO.

And for the record, I don't give a beetle's fart your opinion on how I used to argue then and what it is now. I don't know you, neither do you me. I bet if it wasn't for this forum, perhaps I never would have had the misfortune of crossing paths with most of the scoundrels that populate the forum.

Of course Lagos preceded oil but it was NOT the mega city that it has become. Today Lagos is probably the biggest city in all of AFRICA. We are all very proud of Lagos. Trying to exclude anybody is courting disaster and problems.

Lagos grew to Mega City status because of Nigerian oil resources and because it was Nigeria's capital. Just Like Abuja has grown because of Nigerian oil resources and because it is Nigeria's capital.

I hope you are okay upstairs? Who told you freedom of speech guarantees you the liberty to threaten people? For your information your freedom of expression is limited when it threatens other peoples right

What rights were violated? Did anyone get hurt or died as a result of the Oba's statement? These are just some of the questions the ICC would look into when determining whether to take this joke seriously! I know you are used to living in a world where you can't express yourself freely but I repeat what the Oba said is still part of his fundamental right to free speech, now if people were actually killed as a result of the statement then there would be a case for inciting violence or "genocide" as some of your comrades put it.

Get a life! Isn't it a Yoruba man that God used to make Jonathan a ijaw man the first vice President from a minority tribe? Ain't it also the Yorubas that protected that Jonathan be made President when yaradua died and the North didn't want him to be President? The Yoruba used mass media, protested on the streets of Lagos and abuja; in some cases they were tear gassed, where were the igbos, the ijaws and other minority groups then? What did the Yorubas get in return from Jonathan and his tribe? Insults! He even went to the east after he won his first election, that's about 2 years after he was sworn in as president after yaradua's death and he was shouting at the top of his voice that they the Igbos are the pillars of his administration. That's were he missed it and this led to him losing the 2nd term, his none performance inclusive.

Igbo has never been slave to Ijaw. Ijaw has never been slave to Igbo.

You are only a small-mind personality, like many in your group whose duty is to create enmity between the Igbo and the Ijaw and others in the old southeast region. Objective? So that as the resources in the old southeast region are being exploited and the environment polluted under one Nigeria, there can be no strong opposition group from the old southeast region to shout out against exploitation and environmental degradation.

Your divide-and-rule tactic is outdated.

How many Yoruba youths do you hear making noise about June 12? Besides, June 12 wasn't a Yoruba thing, it was a Nigerian thing...a Democracy thing. And about the killing of 2 million people, it was a fuccking war, what did you expect? It is not like Nigerian soldiers weren't killed as well. You guys make it seem like your people were just sitting by themselves, minding their business, and Nigerian soldiers went and started killing them. It was a war, and they were the casualties of war, PERIOD!

The beauty of free speech is that it can be negative or positive, you can agree with it or disagree but it should not be restricted. We've seen politicians said worse things and they were not crucified, you people need to get over yourselves! Personally I feel the Oba was wrong to make such a statement but expecting the ICC to sanction him is just plain ridiculous!
