jp philips:

there you go again, s1lly, daft and stup1d are no insult for some Nigerians whose buffoonery knows no bounds.
courtesy did a great disservice to pretend or shield a stup!d person from his stup!dity.

some people are who they are "stup!d" and i cant do sh!t about that, I disagree with courtesy on this one, I have the right to say it to their face.[/color]

agbameta:

Take a deep breath, reformulate your thoughts without insults for proper response.

0monnak0da: How can you compare Federal project in Anambra to Lagos The FG project in lagos are businesses not Charity.The FG gets over 40 billion naira a month from Lagos on VAT this does not include custom duty or Excise duties not to mention the Airport. Lagos state gets about 13 billion from the FG in a good month so all in all Lagos is actually subsidizing Anambula state.

But the seaport in Lagos has been operating and bringing in money before 1900

so much money in fact that there was electricity with street lights,a telephone exchange and trains in Lagos before 1900 and that Carter Bridge (1st mainland) was built in 1901

berem: Everyone understands what Pele is. it's either Pele in Yoruba which means sorry or Pele the Brazilian football legend.

St_Black:

...NA NA NA NA NA. I DISAGREE.

Haba, im sure all she said isnt conc. You as an Igbo should be able to grab dat, .....but i marveled when u could say "pele" but not get what she posted.

Anyways, seeing from her post, i am sure she's someone who has lived donkey years in her (you know ) before any movement to anywhere outside SE in Nigeria......which is why she can do dat & but u cant.

lekkie073:
This gives credence to d fact dat was Lagos had achieved d status of a metropolitan city way back. These ibos came after the Biafra war and things degenerated. We are not saying all ibos shd go but at least 99% shd. Pls don't be offended

berem: hahahaha! see talk? So since you started visiting nairaland, you never noticed i was born and bred in Lagos from my posts? My studying in IMSU and marriage was the only thing that made me live in the east for 7 years before i relocated to lagos in 2009.And since 2009,i just travelled to the east after 4 fuccking years last week. Even though i lived most of my life in Lasgidi, i still speak and write Igbo fluently. Guy, abeg abeg respect yourself! shuuuu!!!

St_Black:

Haba, ko ti to yen
Nwaaaaanyi, Any ibo on NL can claim been Lagosian since 1 B.C.E , so far its a faceless forum !!! . i was born in IB city but moved in to LAG late 2004.
....
Anyways, Lagos or Imo or Gombe, nobody is more Lagosian than anyone (but some are tribes sha )

SE O SHA DE TI TO ?

Very annoying how people form opinions from fallacies, as at 2011, Americans in china were totaling 110,000 at a time American's population was less than 350,000. yet somebody is claiming Americans don't seek for greener pastures or evade competition like he put it.

Even if i was that dumb, i wont ever say it in public.

berem: t
even though you are yoruba, you are not more of a lagosian than i am. Am not saying lagos is my state of origin, but Lagos is my second home. so ti get ba yi! so ma ba mi so oro to ma bi mi nu, so gbo?

ok na shop knuckle! ko si were!

u can choose not to believe me since its a faceless forum where any bushman/bushwoman from Esa-oke or Nsukka(where i served ) on the forum can claim Lagosian since 1 B.C.E !!!

jp philips:


Do you have the least idea how many Americans live in china, south Korea and Britain? you are completely dumb, myopic and stup1d mixed together, shaken and runneth over.

Are you asking me to furnish you with Embassy documents for free? you think im as stup1d as your fore fathers, if you want to know about the American interests outside the US, then you pay school fees and take a history class.

who are you to ask me for information? am I ur father?

Katsumoto, please am apologizing on his behalf. don't take it personal.

You are not dumb, but you are still spewing numbers and rubbish without facts... Makes no sense.

Katsumoto:

I am going to shred the fool so much, he will resort to his other monikers.

And don't think I didn't notice your remarks.

ACM10:

Bros don't sweat it. That folk is known to make silly analogies, then argue with it.

Red_Mullet:

It's very dangerous for Ibos to look for trouble in Lagos....Fashola has subtly warned them during the deportation saga...the stakes are just too high to contemplate going into any skirmishes.



Those shade of red are dangerous territories before Ibos can reach any where near the comfortable zone.

Yorubas surely outnumbered Ibos in Lagos...since Lagos is not just about the Lagos Island and mainland.

You guys should use your head and stop talking carelessly.

Biafra diplomat:

Igbos are not trouble makers but at the same time, they are never intimidated rather they will fight for a cause they believe in even to the last man standing. The civil war is a case study, even with millions dead and the overwhelming imperial and federal allied forces attacking them from all sides and harangued by hunger and starvation with the blockade effectively in place, they kept on till the end. I don't think any other ethnic group in Nigeria could have the guts and resilience to stand the rest of the country as well as the imperial forces. The east was destroyed both the infrastructure, social demography, etc and it took the Igbos many years to recover irrespective of their natural instincts on turning waste to wealth.

Lagos would not survive an implosion of the magnitude that ethnic war between Igbos and Yorubas would cause, there are many Igbos that were born in Lagos who have never been to the east since they were born as well as hundreds of thousands of others who invested millions who would rather die defending it than running away. If the Igbos could fight the whole of Nigeria to a stand still then I don't think the Yorubas alone could overwhelm us.

LETS GIVE PEACE A CHANCE IN NIGERIA!

Katsumoto:

Do you know the meaning of standstill? Do you think the war ended in a draw?

It appears you folks learned nothing from the last war. Your mouths and fingers write cheques that your body can't cash.

One would think Biafra won the war with the constant boasting.

Lesson for you, boasting is the preserve of winners.
