Ngwakwe: Most of you internet warriors should come down from your high horse and find a way to gain(get) the best out of the Igbos. We are endowed with talents and are generally hardworking.

The Igbos integrate well with their host communities thereby minimizing the clash of culture and civilization.

There is no level of online conspiracy that can break the ingenuity and survival of Ndigbo even in the harshest location in the face of the earth.

Instead of envy, take it as a challenge and motivate yourself to learn from and also teach that Igbo person nearest to you.

Do you all suffer from delusions of grandeur in addition to paranoia. I laff when you guys talk about envy. What is there to envy about you? Arrogance? Hitler mentality? Armed-robbing? Kidnapping? Drug pushing? Cannibalism? Product counterfeiting? Do anything for money? Your boorishness?
You need to get back to planet reality. Nobody gives a fuccck about you.
The message is clear -If you can't abide by laws of Lagos, pack your bags and leave to where chaos is allowed.

no Ibo are brash,boastful and generally insensitive to others feelings.I say with all confidence that anywhere in the world where you have a large number of Ibos their hosts always have problems with them.
Leave Nigeria and go to Gabon,Equitorial Guinea,Ghana Let us not talk about SA for now till the day the FG will send planes to carry their bodies. The sad part is the Ibo man has no knowledge or care of why he is so despised.
Be humble and stop boasting!!

PointB: The whole fiasco of closing a market and then setting up a committee to look into the problems that resulted into the closure portrays Fashola as someone who acts before he thinks. It could be that something more sinister is the motivation here, perhaps zenophophia and malice for Igbos as some have suggested. If that is the case, he will again fail woefully!

Otherwise, like many rational commentators have posited in this thread, what stopped Gov'nor Fashola from setting up committee composed of the traders and government official to understand and proffer solutions prior to the closure. This is even more so when Fashola did not provide some of the basic facility needed at the market.

Closing the market before setting up a committee to look at the challenges is simply putting the cart before the horse. Fashola as usual has goofed big time, and this, like some of his other ill thought actions, will certainly come back to haunt him.

Unfortunately for all of you and your pointless arguements, all that nonsense was proposed and tried, but you people refused to yield to reasons and cautions, you chased them away with dangerous weapons, you think you are the law, you think you make the rules, you think this is your land and where you can do what you want and get away with it, but you found out the hard way that this is not your show and you are far far away from your iboland and the only authority in lagos is the authority of the people of lagos state.

We know what you people respond to so all this Yeye rubbish is for the birds

You are so right. Ibos do not understand why they are despised by everybody. In their warped mind, they think their hosts envy them for selling spare-parts, kidnapping, drug pushing, armed robbing their graceful hosts. What an upside-down thought process!

The issue with Ladipo did not start this year ,the fact is that some people are trying to instigate xenophobic tendencies trying different methods see below how they tried using an agent in 2012

Firm threatens to revoke Ladipo market allocations

By Nwanosike Onu, Awka 27/04/2012 01:18:00

A firm, Paramo Investment Ventures, has threatened to revoke the allocation of shops at the Ladipo Spare Part International Market, Mushin, Lagos.

Its Managing Director, Mr Ajibade Olajoku [/color]said in a statement that some of the traders did not abide by the terms of the lease agreement.

Paramo has a 25-year lease agreement with Mushin Local Government on a build-manage-transfer basis over the market.
Olajoku said his firm’s agreement with the traders is that they would pay for 10 to 12 years in three installments as construction work progressed, but that most traders paid only one installment.
“The agreement was that they should complete the project and collect allocation papers, but what majority of the traders have is receipt of the first installment. No single allocation paper has been issued to anybody in the market.
“The traders are free to collect their money from us since they are not able to clear the payment, which implies that we can collect our property back from them.

“Besides, the traders have not been paying ‘stallage fees’ due to Paramo and Mushin Local Government for the past seven years.

“We are therefore left with no option than to call for the revocation of the allocation, to enable us re-allocate the shops to traders that are willing to pay our money so that we can recoup our investment,” Olajoku said.


But leader of the market, Jonathan Okoli, said Paramo has not fulfilled its obligations according to the lease agreement the traders entered with it.

He said Paramo “since inception has been causing trouble in the market,” adding that “they cannot revoke what they don’t have.”

“There is an agreement that binds the parties. Have they fulfilled their part? Those who have finished paying, have they given them their allocation papers? They have not.

“Did he (Olajoku) respect the agreement we have with his father’s company? He did not. Instead he’s causing trouble, laying forceful claim over the market,” Okoli said.

It's quite unfortunate that some individuals will hide their inherent and extreme boiling hatred against a people in this case Ndigbo in a nation where everybody has the right to own property.

Calling the Igbos migrant workers while Europeans are called investors is deliberate act of callousness and a shameful act in itself to the spirit of brotherliness called One Nigeria.

Ladipo Auto Market is like a faculty of Automobile Engineering and Mechanical Re-Engineering.

There are a lot of talents wasting in that market that Nigeria need to plug into as to make giant stride in Engineering technology.

Come tomorrow in one way or the other, you will directly or indirectly need their services.

Yes but markets are NOT the PLACE for Engineering work. It should be strictly for buying and selling. Not welding and reassembly of vehicles or other "engineering work" That should happen in an industrial area.What next NBL come and start making Gulder in the market and pouring their waste into the canal. I am sorry we will not allow you do to Lagos what you have done to Onitsha or Aba

Negro_Ntns: The comments and responses of igbos on this thread is proof that igbo culturally has no reverence for constituted authority. They respond and respect brute treatment and interaction and consider it a show of courage because naturally they are brute and ill mannered. A gentle and soft approach and handling of them will always be considered a sign of weak and cowardly character.

O ga o! Chief Negro_Nations, all right, forgive them. Be the Magnanimous Omoluabi.

Negro_Ntns:

I want to be Lagos governor for just one week.....5 business days, no more and I want them to act "ignorant" during my one week tenure. .

Insha Allah. Ndu Chucks will be your Northern Campaign Coordinator.

Where was your sense of brotherliness when you look down on other people while spewing your ibo supremacy nonsense and contempt against other people? Are you people bi polar?


Look here, these traders are like any other buyers and sellers all over lagos, they are not doing anybody any favors, they are providing goods and services like traders in other markets in Lagos so there is nothing special about their activities and shutting them down in a jiffy to set them straight is a clear indication and affirmation of all that in case you are still confused.

If you don't sell parts tomorrow, other people will just like this popular Yoruba saying. Ti oko kan kp ba re ejirin, egeb gberun e a lo. Meaning if any car doesn't want to go to ejirin, thousands of it will go.

Y'all need to take a chill pill with all that empty and shallow chest beating because their is nothing there...

I actually dropped in to engage in a constructive argument, but seems you're bent on throwing insults and tantrums around.
I don't do agbero-ism! Can you provide us with evidences in form of links that shows fashiola actually tried salvaging the situation by starting up committees before resulting to total demolishing of the market.
If the committee setting up method was tried and never yielded results as you are speculating, then why did he resolve to it agaiin?

I'm not here to exchange insults with, as usual, if you can't be civil with your conversation, I'd be happy to leave your thread.

Thanks.

There is no need for stupid commitees.Are these the only traders in Lagos.They were breaking the law and when cautioned they go and bring their tribal gang and governor.I am really disappointed in Fashola for even giving them audience or visiting the market.These same people who molested Local Government officials with their so called Baskad boys

Obviously, you know nothing about this issue, you found it and.just jumped on it without educating yourself even about the basic foundation and how it progressed.

The traders involved have admitted their errors and have promised to amend their ways and correct right their errors so its result pointless going back n forth with you and your redundant argument.


If you need to be educated some more, do all that on your own time.

i do omoluabi for my fellow yorubas, hausas, kanuris, tapas, tivis, edos, efiks, ijaws........but ibos and fulanis, for different reasons, both only respect and bow to omoapanle.


yes ndu_chucks will need to educate and caution his fulani people up there who is in governor's office and why it matters that not a single person, yoruba or not, be harrassed or assaulted anywhere in yorubaland during Negro's tenure.

Please leave other tribes out of this. This is not 1967. They are all aware of your Bigotry, backbiting, deceitfulness, and holier than thou attitude as a race. Learn to stand on ur own and defend what u believe in, don't always play for cheap support by springing up sentiments. Most of these other brothers u mentioned have put the war behind them and know where there enemies lye except the Yorubas. Don't hold on to the past just to prove a point even when its obvious u made a mistake. U have to understand that ur hero is a vilain to others and stop flaunting him in everybody's faces. Celebrate him if u like, but he is poo to others. I like you as a race but u have to cut other tribes that don't agree with ur ideologies a slack and respect their views. Whenever anything doesn't go your way as a tribe, u gang up and write petitions as if the whole world is expected to do whatever u want. It's called scheming and it's annoying. I like Gani Fawehnmi, Fela, Soyinka but i will never like Awo. The aforementioned fellows were selfless in their analysis of situations and proved themselves time and time again quite unlike many Yorubas. That said, please promote Gani, Fela, Soyinka more than u do this Awo if u want recognition from other tribes. Rubbing Awo to our faces is appauling.

^^^^^^^ Yawnzzzz. Broken record.

Please, if Fashola decided to close Ladipo with good intentions, good and fine but if he did it just to spite a particular people. Time will tell.
