The op maybe right concerning that of fashola reason been that names that starts with Ifa have there root in ekiti hence names like fashola , fabunmi,fasoro, faseyi is common over there

You are a fuuktard. If Ifa names are peculiar to Ekiti (which are not), why is it difficult to name his town?

PS:
Ifa derives from Yoruba religion, and Ifa names are common throughout Yoruba land.

The election will be competitive because the incumbent is not running. The battle is between political structures of leading parties. There is no doubt that Ambode has been campaigning throughout the state. If Ambode wins the primary (which he will) and there is less rancour, APC will win overwhelmingly.

Anything to replace Tinubu? Including replacing him with those capable of stealing the whole Lagos treasury in a day.
Tinubu is a class rogue that has cornered lagos to himself and stolen it dry since 1999.

I don't see were I insulted you to warrant this insult you giving me here.. Well I will pretend I didn't see that, its either you are not even yoruba or probably you are one of those that haven't taken their time to study the history of somethings in yoruba land. Go and do your findings about the origin of ifa worship then come back here and appologise. However names that start with ifa could come from other areas In yorubaland but it is most common in Ekiti state

Wow !! that JAMB form. It seems like no real indigenous Lagosian has ever governed Lagos. I was meant to understand that both Tinubu and Fashola are also migrants from the South West. so, if migrants from the SW can govern Lagos, why not migrants from the SE ?.
I don't subscribe to the view that a migrant from Osun or Ekiti has more claims to Lagos than an Igbo, Calabar or Hausa man born and bred in Lagos. I believe the national assembly is looking into the matter right now.
I will voting PDP anyway. no matter who they bring out for Lagos. We need freedom from Tinubu grip. Lagosians cannot breath freely anymore.

Igbo people and SE indegenes, please leave this thread. Your opinions are not needed!!

[size=15pt]Nigeria is a country of many nations and this is a Yoruba matter. Any man from Yoruba land is allowed to rule Lagos.[/size]

There are aspirants in the APC that are more popular and accomplished than Ambode. If he wins the party primaries, it'll be because of Tinubu.

Since you are a Yoruba, you've taken time to study Yoruba history and know that names "with ifa could come from other areas in Yorubaland", why did you state the OP/Aljharem could be right?

Can you also tell us why Koro is not behind bars since you called him treasury looter?

Fashola is from Lagos Island. Tinubu is also from Lagos Island but the story is that he's an adopted son of the Tinubu's. Since the Tinubu's are a well documented Lagos family but with strong ancestral ties to Abeokuta also, then Tinubu is by right of family a Lagosian.

The difference between non Yorubas and Lagos Yorubas who can be linked to origins other than Lagos is:

Their families have been Lagosian before the country existed.
They do not run off to a supposed ancestral village during Christmas.
They do not relocate to bury their dead in a supposed ancestral village.
They do not relocate to a supposed ancestral village for their traditional wedding.
Most importantly, they are well tied to Lagos by marriage.
Lastly they do not rant in envy of Lagos. This is their home, not a place they reside when it is convenient.

Politics is not, ultimately, about popularity. It has more to do with who controls the party structure. But a major fallout will spell doom for APC as it happened during Otedola era. Ambode will win, but he should in a free, fair and credible primary contest.

If Tinubu was a notorious Chicago cocaine pusher, why is he able to enter the US freely without any harassment? Is he above american laws?



If you can't quote where I called Koro a "treasury looter", then you are a liar.

Politics is ultimately about popularity, Ambode is going to ride on Tinubus popularity (or control) within the APC to win the primaries.

While you're right that "Fa" prefix is common to Ekiti state, it is not an Ekiti dialect hence not exclusive to Ekiti.

The same goes for "Odu" not being exclusive to the Ijebu.

So "Fa" holds no knowledge on Sola's Ekiti origin.

Tinubu is not popular in the true sense of the word popularity, but he is powerful when it comes to party politics.

I have very bad news for the ethnic bigots, the suferers of superiority complex, the racists, and narow minded folks on this thread.

The following provision will become part of the Amended 1999 constitution in a matter of months:

a citizen of Nigeria is an indigene of a particular community of a state in Nigeria if he was born in that state

One day, the governor of Lagos will say yammiri/yim miri (give me water) when he requests for iced water out of Alausa. lipsrsealed

"Ogun" prefix is even more common in Ekiti than "Ifa".

Correct! Lagos does not want a governor or deputy that will go "home" every Easter and Christmas to celebrate with "kindred" grin grin

How does that change anything, really? Would it make Emeka win election in Kano, Babangida in Ekiti or Ogunyemi in Enugu? Now, is there any law that bar them from contesting for election in those states? You folks think you can legislate unity into existence? Let them keep reworking a useless constitution until the whole country crumbles.
