mejai: A lagosian is an ugly man wit sango tribal or facial marks, who does nothin but 2 claim landlord, plays 'draft' wit his taxi waitin at d park. In d afternoon, he eats ewedu & amala, den wknds goes for owambe party, simple discussion wit his mates, he shouts( thinkin it's an argument). He's lazy, chewin stick in a mega city & always ready 2 abuse u. Funny enuf, richest yorubas r not frm lagos sef, ogun state & odas r d way.
If e vex u, find d nearest railway & hug an on comin train. Shoot me if u can. Ogun state........ Pride of yoruba land. Wer rich men wine & dine, yet dem Bleep up.

truth4meal: if they ask you for ur state of Origin - you will say "Lagos" abi? If they ask for your Nationality you will "lost tribe of Isreal" - you pple don't exist and its not ur fault u lost ur sense and history to d civil war

Oh boi, I am not igbo. Infact, I am an Ife Prince from the Oshikola ruling family (The same fam that produced the former governor of the Western Region). cool

The op asked for meaning of a lagosian, I don't think he is asking for "state of origin". I was born and bred in Lagos, sure that makes me a lagosian but I am not indigenous to Lagos.

Stop chatting bolocks here. Yorubas born in London claim London as their city and even use U.K passports. Why can't you fools reason for once. Why can't others be Lagosians when you also claim other cities as your own. I pity you clowns.

Chinom:

Abuja is the "new" Lagos. When El-Rufai said that 70% of the properties in Abuja are own by Igbos, he is basically saying that Igbos own Abuja. But Abuja is sooo young compared to Lagos.

Good, I just don't understand why Igbos love the idea of investing in real estate in regions alien to them. Nigeria is a very fragile country, have you ever thought of what would become of those properties should all hell break loose. Anyway, that's another discussion for a different topic.

It seems you have the same mental health issues which Rashidi Yekini had. One minute he is normal even chatting with Taiwo Ogunjobi etc. The next minute he is the market centre barefooted.
For your information, Yorubas invest elsewhere outside Yorubaland e.g Kaduna, Jos etc. The issue here is about riches. A lot of them who do not invest outside yorubaland are as poor as church rats.

Try and get an education about the history of Lagos before you make ridiculous claims about People from Benin being the original settlers.

We are here to learn fact not hearsay and propaganda. Sir, if could be kind to oblige your hard earned knowledge, that would be noble. I repeat without being coerced Lagos is home for all.

and transfering dirty rubbish yorubas to their caves and villages .


The Special Adviser to the governor on Youth and Social Development Dr. Dolapo Badru, who disclosed this at a ministerial briefing yesterday in Lagos, said 3,044 of the beggars arrested had been sent away in the last one year.

Giving a breakdown of the statistics, Badru revealed that Sokoto State had the highest number of beggars with 196 arrested on Lagos streets, followed by Oyo State with 83, Kano State 75, Osun State 67, Ekiti 21, while Ondo State had seven.

Yours is a very sensible comment. Being a Lagosian is NOT the same thing as being an Indigene. Let's not get the 2 mixed up. Of the near 20 million population of Lagos, i'm not sure Indigenes make up to 5 million. Besides all Yorubas are not indegenes of Lagos.

I agree with you completely. It was a very clean and orderly city though, and then...Kabooom! Ekenedili started coming with full loads and returning empty!
Re: Who Is A Lagosian? by Benito69(m): 4:15pm On Sep 26, 2012
A lagosian is defined as one that has the following characteristics
1. Has stayed in Lagos for at least 5 years.
2. Can survive being stuck in traffic for at least 3 hours.
3. Though he/she may not be fluent in yoruba, he/she may insult fellow lagosians, greet fellow lagosians, and interact with the bus conductor.

that is exactly how failure use to start. Lagos state govt deported majority non-igbos as igbos to anambra. Even yorubas are among the deportees. We will transfer them all back to lagos state. And now we've known ur governor even more and his feelings for anambra and igbo race in general. Let's watch and see who the winner will be.

If I have any Political future It would be in Oyo State and never from Lagos
