Oh no, not again. Why do Yoruba people always cry for fvck sake, especially in their own domain? These folks are just too soft and stupid...they're the type of folks you slap and rob, and still go back the next day to taunt with what you robbed off them cos you know there won't be consequences. Weak muthaphuckas hiding behind pseudo-sophistication and being accommodating.

To all the Igbos I've attacked since I joined Nairaland for calling Yoruba people cowards...I hereby apologise, cos you never told a lie. In as much as I'm Yoruba and not a coward, and I don't know too many cowardly Yoruba folks (met a few cowardly ones from naij though) - based on ratio of majority/minority rule - I do accept that Yoruba folks are mostly cowards. I never knew Yoruba folks were this cowardly, but I know better now.

Effing sissified cowards. undecided
Am an Igbo man but I don't believe Yorubas are cowards...What I don't like is the way Yorubas keep on shouting that they accommodated Igbos, helped Igbos, bla bla bla is what we can't take anybody. Did any Yoruba man gave any Igbo man land for free? Did any Yoruba man rent any shop to any Igbo man for free? Did the Lagos State government gave any stall for free to any Igbo man for free? The answer is NO.

In 2012/2013, Lagos State government demolished Onigbongbo market in Maryland, Ikeja and rebuilt it. After that, they sold out the stalls each for #4M..Yes I know about this because my uncle bought 3 and also rented 3 from those who also bought. Now one day, one ediotic Yoruba man will come and tell my uncle some bullcrap that he accommodated him, have him food, bla bla bla...After collecting his money? shocked ....Meeeen that Yoruba is a bastard ediot and should go and die.. angry

[s]These are some of the dividents of radio biafra. Igbos know very well that they have thrived in urban and rural nooks and crannies of Nigeria by establishing a micro retail chain. This is only possible through peaceful coexistence which helped in relationship bonding in form of marriages, friendship and even property acquisition with the host communities.

The kind of danger this recent Jonathan's politics and its birth child radio biafra is putting Igbos will be unimaginable when the threshold is reached. Igbo elders should as a matter of urgency call the ignorant Nnamdi Kanu to order or we might wake up one day to read that 10million Igbos have been killed by a gang up of every other ethnic group in Nigeria[/s].

I thank you for seeing what i am seeing, i think the issue with balckman is the inability for us to see the long term, people have placed men in moon and have made great strides intellectually a reporter that went to school is still writing iyaloja in this 21st century. This is pathetic and i feel so sorry for this.
I appreciate your offer to buy me a car but i have cars, just trying to be modest. Tune to BBC, CNN and other international media house you will see countries asking people to come and invest. People go to where there is peace, one thing this has shown is that lagos is not the investment destination as it seems.
Why am i saying this, the other time Ghana peeps left Lagos just because of this, now what is actually wrong with Blackman, when Rhodesia was a country governed by whites it was a top notch economy in Africa, then Mugabe and his co travellers came changed it from Rhodesia to Zimbabwe and now this is it. If lagos doesn’t take time, it will turn to this.
I have travelled and i have seen, no wonder they say travel is the best teacher, in dubai you cant see an Emirati shouting we own Dubai, mehn those Emiratis i respect them, they are busy sending their kids to MIT and oxford. You don’t go to California and see the red Indians or apache Indians shouting they own USA or you go to Seoul and see the Koreans shouting we own seoul. For heaven sake we know that and that is a fact, why disturb us with that. These sane climes are busy attracting investors not chasing them away with one barbaric tradition of iyaloja,omonile and others, not only in Lagos even in Port Harcourt they have imported this mentality calling it marching ground money. I think that energy they use in doing these ill things should be channelled at understudying these dudes in their clime. We call this eclectics...the ability to draw inspiration from various sources. And to me that is not bad.
When a man keeps shouting to his wife and kids that i am the head of family...know that the man has lost respect in that family. Everybody knows that the man is the head of family so why drum it into people ears, what the man need to do is take care of the family and do his responsibilities as a man ..the full respect will be accorded not shouting I AM THE HEAD. This can be likened to Lagos situation and in some degree Nigerian situation.
We have to change our orientation. The other races are laughing at the black race, from Haiti to Somalia even yesterday there was a coup...what the hell is wrong with us?!!!!

I have to keep telling ndigbo this, because so many of you online deal with many un-enlightened yoruba and you can say many things and get away with it because they are ignorant. but I have to come in and clear the matter - NOBODY IN ANY PART OF THIS WORLD SELLS LAND. NO PLACE ON THIS GODS GREEN EARTH IS LAND ' SOLD '. LAND IS LEASED FOR PERIODS OF 100 YEARS. AFTER THE LEASE IS UP THEY CAN RENEW IT FOR YOU OR THEY CAN TERMINATE IT. YOU OWN THE HOUSE ON THE LAND AND NOT THE LAND. THE LAND IS CONTROLLED BY YORUBA DIGNATARIES. WHEN PEOPLE BUY LAND-THEY BUY THE USE OF THE LAND FOR 100 YEARS. IN SOME COUNTRIES THEY GIVE YOU 150 YEARS. but nobody really buys land. this is why el-rufai can come and bulldoze thousands of houses belonging to people is because you can never own land.

Big bredrin, I think it's high time we stopped defending these folks if they can't possess their possessions. In a competitive environment, especially a place that belongs to you - you have to fight with everything you have got. No rules are allowed.

If these folks are too weak/soft/cowardly to possess their possessions and defend their natural entitlement from invaders - they deserve whatever they get. They need to stop crying, shut the fuvk up, and deal with their stupidity. These folks just irritate me these days, I swear down. Igbos have taken over our market. Igbos have taken over lands. Igbos have taken over our culture. Igbos don't respect us in our own land. Igbos have taken over our money blah blah blah. Fight back or shut it. Dammit! undecided

cool The amala-eaters are seeing what the abokis have seen a long time ago, namely the akpu-eating flattheads are not to be trusted. Give them an inch they take a mile, give them a yard, they take a mile. Biafra will not come until the amala-eaters uproot those flattheads from Lagos. Until you deal with the chestbeaters they will never recognize how to show respect to others. Go to Kano now and see how nice and humble these flattheads have become. They will beating their chests until aboki started macheting them one by one. In Kano (and the North in general), you see the flattheads going about their business with humility and very little chestbeating(if any at all)- they dare not try any stupid nonsense.

Haven't said all these, lets not forget that the amala eaters and the akpu-eating flattheads are both a nuisance that need to shut up or go away.

Its the tribalist signing off.
you lied and exaggerated the issue of kano, i am sure is not the kano that i stayed for years. Igbos are thesame every where. I hope you know sabon gari majorly igbos and non indigene, nobody dares the igbos. Not even in other parts of the state. Igbos are respected for who they are.

Give us instances where igbos dragged land with any lagosian


Give us instances where igbos are fighting Lagos indigenes like fulani are doing in plateau.

Give us instances where an igbo that own property in Lagos died and was buried in Lagos

Give us instances where igbos installed eze in festac, or igwe in lekki.


If u have no answer to the above, then igbos are not Ur problem but ENVY IS.


Fooool I think u Jst dis embarked from a bus in ojota from ur village, even if dat is d case don't u av radio in ur erosion laden land called south east to listen to news, ar u also saying u don't av exposed pple in ur locality to brief u on d claims dat arises during d election period.


It really showed dat u struggled to finish primary school before u went into ur spare part business.

Talking abt envy, Wat do yorubas want to envy in illicit drug dealers, kidnappers, ritualist , 419ers, arm robbers, 90% sets of illiterates, fooools, arrogant bastarrds, no vision, no direction sets of people, if dat is ur version of envy, den u must be a confirm psychopath.

Now I know dat u ferry out ur stinking dead bodies out of South west to ur land of sorrow call south east, I tot as ur pple claim dat lagos is no man's land u would av equally chosen to bury ur dead.

Percentage of people told me dat u pple ar bunch of goaaats, I was even trying to communicate in a polite manner, but it seems lack of ur education be clouded u from simple reasoning.

the only problem with your opinion is that once we igbos see a new thing, we have a way of seeing how best to optimize it. doesnt matter if the yoruba start a new business, under a year, they will need another new one. grin grin

This report is what I call junk journalism

Where the igbos given shops for free..so the term allocated should not be used

What it the role of iya Loja

Why can't there be election


Why must iya Loja be an issue ...the Igbo do not understand the term iyaloja and they will not understand why an old woman with fat butts sits at one corner doing absolutely nothing will be collecting levies while people prostate giving it to her


I think in all honesty there are things that should be jettisoned and one of them is this iyaloja mentality


If the red Indians maintained their archaic culture there won't be new York

If the Emiratis had maintained their desrt nomadic culture we all won't troop to Dubai

I think the average black man has challenges with growth and the ability to think out of the box


Nations are begging people to come do businesses in their land some are busy formeting trouble with this iyaloja and omonile attitude

For heavens sake this is ICT period not Oyo dynasty nor Igbo ukwu kingdom



The black man must grow ...the black man must stop been laughed at by other races



Can somebody tell me the wholesome and value the iyaloja brings



Muslims don't take alcohol but the Emiratis understand that they need foreign money they forgot that and today in Dubai you can club and drink fine cocktail of cognac and vodka...that is how people should reason


Which one is more important

Is it the iyaloja thing or economic booming of the area



Good morning all

To further support your point.
Dangote is the richest man in Nigeria today because his companies are managed not only by foreigners but also by people from all over the country and not just his tribe alone. Thanks to him our export has increased as a nation(GDP 23rd largest). He has built large plants in Lagos and Kogi even outside the shores of Nigeria not just in Kano his state of origin.
He is also building a refinery in Lagos, and I want to announce to those who think that it will one tribe alone that will run the refinery, that they are making a big mistake. He understands the impact of diversity and does not play the tribalism card.
This is one of the reasons he keeps growing while those who chose to play the tribalism card are not growing any further.
Now if he achieved this feat mainly on commodities (sugar ,cement) alone, imagine what he would achieve in energy mainly oil and gas.
If he hadn't left his locality (Kano), he would not have gained global recognition or at least to this level.
If you doubt me check out all the millionaires before him, how they rose and how they failed. Some are still stagnant.
I wouldn't want to mention any names but look around you will definitely see why some people have not grown the way he grew.
Tribalism and ethnicity is not an option for anyone who wants prosperity, it is about synergy,it is about win-win.
We have everything we need in Nigeria, yet we can't see it.
Those who play tribalism might make temporary gains due to sight but those who truely understand diversity are prosperity have vision and insight.
Everybody is free to do whatever they feel, but our actions are without consequences. Good morning Nigeria.

[b]ahhh but you are not seeing the big picture. you are looking at the situation from a poor yoruba mans perspective who is on ground level who sees all these igbos owning shops or houses. the poor yoruba man is alarmed and thinks the igbo man is taking over. this is the myopic poor yoruba mans vision of the situation. now let me take you to the view of the rich powerful yoruba man hiding in the background controlling everything. men like tinubu who practically own all of lagos and his fellow yoruba land-owners. these powerful yoruba men know the land belongs to yoruba and they can lease it to anybody who has money. it pays you more to lease it to ndigbo because they can bring all their wealth to lagos instead of keeping it east. then people like tinubu can get the following benefits
1- you pay all kinds of taxes and levies on the land annually
2-you beautify and develop lagos when you build your structure on it
3-you pay millions of naira to lease the land
4-when you build your structure on it you employ lagosians to build it for you hence employment
5-the fact that you live in lagos means you spend all your money in lagos and keep commerce vibrant

so these yoruba dignataries are collecting money in 5 different ways from ndigbo who has leased land in lagos. it is sophisticated slavery. you are enslaved to yoruba but you dont know it because you have a house and think you are free. SO THIS IS THE VIEW OF THE YORUBA ROYALTY WHO CONTROLS THE LAND. BUT TO THE POOR YORUBA MAN HE SEES THE IGBO AS COMPETITION. BUT IN REALITY ? THE IGBO MAN AND THE POOR YORUBA MAN ARE ALL SLAVES TO THE YORUBA ROYAL CLASS[/b]
