simeonT: What many people fail to realise i̶̲̥̅̊S̶̲̥̅ that when you don't have something meaningful doing in any state of the federation you should be returned to your state of origin. There, no-how you will find something to do. Thou it might be little. Yoruba, Ibo or Hausa does not count here. I overheard a Yoruba tout telling his colleague to get ID-Card because Lagos state Govt. Would soon come and raid them again. They all said they had got it. The Yorubas men will always learn semi-skill work like carpentry, Bricklaying etc if they can't go to school. All these tout and agbero you see in Lagos have one occupation or the other. But majority of the Ibos will be learn how to sell market if they can't go to school and hausa will not even learn anyone they do hard jobs initially and later turn to beggars when the power i̶̲̥̅̊S̶̲̥̅ no longer there. Therefore when Lagos state task force get them they can't defend theirselves. Hence, they are returned to there state of origin.You have stated what you feel could be the reason for the intra-national deportation action by the Lagos State, but Fashola has not made any pronouncement to this effect. If this action is constitutional, why does he not announce and publicize it as the Traffic Laws and Environmental Laws so those jobless people could find skills if "skill-less-ness" is the factor here. |

Billyonaire: I do not know what qualifies someone to be a Lagosian, I really do not know what criteria they use in determining who a Lagosian is. This is my main grouse. If someone from Osun state who can speak Yoruba and has a Yoruba name is just as likely to get deported than say an Ibiye or an Emeka, then I have little problem with the law (even though I think it is a tad dumb and very short sighted). |

This useless lie should not be in this forum to start with. What a silly joke. Anyway , for those who do not know, there are no natives of Lagos. The only part where there are natives in Lagos state is the Badagry axis. Yet they are not Yorugbas. Hence, no sane yoruba man/woman can claim Lagos as his state of origin. Why cant those yorugbas in Ikorodu, Epe etc go back to where they came from?. 1 Like |

Sky Blue:The question should not be whether the people deported are Igbos, Yorubas or Hausa rather we should be seeking to find the reason for their deportation and why a Nigerian should be deported in his/her own country. |

Dudu_Negro:You are a primitive man,so all yorubas that are living outside their home land should be deported to their respective homelands.Your reasoning is so LOW.Your kind of person does not make progress in life,you sound envious-jealous of Igbo people.On an equal ground you cannot compet with any igbo person.You will definitly be floored. 2 Likes |

Sky Blue: The customary laws of Lagos state recognizes the traditional and cultural kinship that exist within the Yoruba commonwealth.....from one to the other there is a tie of kinship and brotherhood. A Yoruba from another state is not a foreigner in Lagos. A non-Yoruba in Lagos is a foreigner on the land. You are either "Omo Kaaro o jire" or you are not.......we dont recognize alloyed nativity in our customs. |

All that remains is to check passport at tollgate. Otherwise, the exercise is a waste of tax payers money. People dat get deported in Europe return in a matter of weeks and months, how much more Lagos. Lagos deportation makes alot of sense and should be adopted by other states. We are getting there.

profola2be:Why are you so biased ? There is no city in the world that is totally occupied by the 'locals'. Lagos can not be termed Cosmopolitan if its only occupied by 'Locals'. Lagos is Cosmopolitan cos nationals of diverse countries live and work here not just Nigerians from other states. Infact, majority of the Houses in Lekki Phase, VGC and MayFair gardens, are owned by Non-Lagosians and it there fore means that, Non-Lagosians control the Commerce and Entertainment centres of Lagos and deserve accolades for making Lagos what it is. Remove all aliens from Lagos, and Lagos will become a tomb, an amala joint, and ewedu kitchen, and an advance Ogbomosho. Lagos is for everyone. 1 Like |

Things are taking shape. Fasola has completed the regional deportation of fellow Nigerians He has deported northerners, fellow westerners and now Easterners (these current deportees include Igbos and non Igbos from the East) One question I have though is how he arrived at the decision to deport people who are not from Anambra, many of whom are no even Igbos, to Anambra. Or it is it simply just to discharge them at Onitsha, the gateway to the East, for every deportee to then find their bearing from there? IMO, this act is not based on tribalism. However, Fasola has completely sealed any presidential ambition he might have. Some of us will campaign against him based on this deportation of fellow Nigerians. He is not fit to lead anywhere outside Lagos State. Who else will ACN field to contest the presidency? Tinubu? 1 Like |

profola2be: Interesting post but Abuja is not congested. If anything more 'normal' Nigerians need o move there, Abuja Central is too elitist, it really wasn't a city built to cater for people who are not rich, and I find that disgusting considering it was built with Nigerian money (or to be more precise oil money). |

Dudu_Negro: Let me tell you one very important reason why we are not compartible by nature despite being Africans and Nigeria.In yoruba culture there seems to be approval for treachery and ambiguity.Being straight forward either as a good or bad man does not seem to draw respect quite unlike the Igbo culture.The Igbo and south south people has a culture that 'says' be straight forward wether as a good or bad person.No ambiguity.That is what draws respect and not being a saint now and a criminal then;neither here nor there. You claim to have given Igbos their property.Why was Ojukwu in court? Why did you support the abandoned property arrangement in portharcourt,why did Awolowo use seized moneys of the Igbos to offer free Education later. Don't u know that Owambe parties in its true sense started when many You-robbers were made rich with Igbo seized money and indigenisation policy. Let me point out that indegenisation policy is what drove away investors from Nigeria till today.The whole europe and many Asians knows what happened,so they are scared to invest in Nigeria.The foreign investors wept when the yoruba,out of greed and short sightedness of tribalism introduced a policy that forced investors to reliquish billions of dollar assets at give away price.The ivestors wept and left Nigeria for good.Those investors can only consider Nigeria as a market rather than a place to stay and manufacture.That is You-robbery and sophistication. When many You-robbers bcame millionares overnight they threw owambe parties all over Ibadan and Lagos.Since then,Owambe bacame a phenomenom 6 Likes |

Germannig: Things are taking shape. Fasola has completed the regional deportation of fellow Nigerians Thats not his headache to sort out. Onitsha is where the foothold of iboland begin. When they get to Onitsha you all sort out yourselves. You should thank him for training and giving these hoodlums some trafe skills at all. |

Re: Lagos Deports Anambra Refugees by naptu2: 10:27am On Sep 26, 2012 |
Before we go on, why is there so much emphasis on "Fashola"? These laws were inherited from previous administrations. The Tinubu administration also returned destitutes, etc and this action is being taken by the Lagos State Government (Ministry of Social Welfare). |

Dudu_Negro: Igboland does not start in Onitsha. The SE may start in Onitsha but Igboland starts in parts of Delta (Asaba, Ogwashi uku, Agbor, etc). 1. So why did he not deposit the beggars there (in Delta Igbo), the first Igbo port of call of Igboland. Why Anambra specifically? 2. Why did he deposit non-Igbo beggars in Igboland? 3 Likes |

Germannig: ...because we do not recognise anything before Onitsha to be iboland. You may have ibo speaking people living there but thats not iboland. I suggest you guys go open the archives and gazzettes of yestrryears and read up on the formation of native authority and how the old Eastern region was formed. Read up on the congregation of igbo tongue for missionary campaign so you can properly understand what is meant by native land. States have no meaning to us.....we hold dear to our native lands. States may be your holy glory...but to us states is just a drawing on paper....artificial lines of scribbles. |

Re: Lagos Deports Anambra Refugees by naptu2: 10:44am On Sep 26, 2012 |
Now, my criticism of the article. 1) They did not interview Lagos State Government officials to get their own side of the story. 2) They did not interview the people that were "dumped" to hear their own side of the story. 3) It is clear to me that the story is designed to inflame passions (particularly with the use of the words "deport" and "refugees" ). |
