The more you speak, the more it's obvious you are a yoruba hiding behind another group to spew your hatred. Lady we are used to your cowardly ppl act. The minute you started knowing "Nigeria tribes" and very invested in Nigeria gave you away as one from the clan of cowards. This your post actually proves some more cause only the waste excuse of a human space tribe drag others during their dance of shame.
First the only African group known to call AA lazy are yoruba. The reason why Nigerians are hated among AA community are fucking yoruba hence the tribe they always drag during their belittle of Nigeria are predominately Yoruba. If you doubt me, head to any AA forums and read their own comments. Next time you want to run your mouth and lie like the little yoruba cowards you all are, then be sure not to try and twist a story infront of someone that reside among the AA community.
Yes your people are lazy. The only tribe in Nigeria, excluding northerners, still till date depends HIGHLY on government and foreigners to feed them are Yoruba. The only tribe that goes to another person's region and demand free lands, foods, etc are Yoruba. Even the freaking northern don't do that. The only tribe whose leaders actually bribe through food just for vote are Yorubas. You can't deny wtf you people are. YOU HAVE AND WILL ALWAYS BEEN A LAZY COWARDS. Everybody knows that and it's not a secret in Nigeria.
Try your fucking worse. All you people know how to do is loudmouth and take credit of others winning of a fight. Every fighy you people have been in, You've been whupped. Even damnoey women,emphasis on WOMEN, defeated una strongest warriors. The north kills you people in your lands and in their lands and what do you Yorubas do? Deny it as much as una can. The only fight you people ever won at is actually a wrestling match among eachother h ence you lazy clowns try desperately and pathetically trying g to take credit for "winning" the Biafra war. Despite it was MB and northerners soldiers that did most of the fighting and the West countries supplied most of the weapons. All you lazy fools did was sit una fat @ss suggesting starvation and waiting to take credit as usual. Like we said, try your f2king worse!!! Let's not forget outside of BH and militants, the last group that pushed nigerian police force were Bakassi Boys. Better go and recheck which tribe predominately made up of Bakassi boys. Ewu!!!!

No Igboman was handed a piece of property when he arrived Lagos He got it by his blood and sweat Yet an agbero posting on nairaland expects to talk trash expect he won't get a good response
Igbos are in Lagos not because it is yorubaland but because it is the commercial nerve center of Nigeria Same reason Lebanese and Chinese are also there buying up land and property You don't hear gwaris of northerners running around like touts complaining of Igbo property in Abuja or that they are taking over Taking over what? They ought to be confident in themselves if they say the land belongs to them Not crying at every turn
See the shameful way an oba acted You don't have any word for it Threatening free citizens into voting for his candidate And you expect that stoopidity not to be met with stern language
Violence is never one sided Lagos has grown beyond Yoruba and that was how it started During the time of regionalism it wasn't even included in western Nigeria It was a province of its own Western Nigeria had its capital in Ibadan ,not Lagos Lagos was the capital of Nigeria,developed with nigerian resources and a collection of Nigerians including Igbos It just happens to be in Yorubaland and that doesn't give any Yoruba tout the right to dictate who lives there The Igbo man has as much right as any Nigerian to live and work there till Lagos becomes a sovereign nation

Re: A Plea For Peace Between The Igbo & Yoruba by Nobody: 2:19pm On Apr 07, 2015 |
EUROBOMBER: The recent happenings in Lagos have created so much tension between the Igbo and the Yoruba. There is so much bitterness and hate talk flying around and this will not do us any good.
When you try to break a wall using a sledge hammer, you need to apply several blows before it gives in. You might need to apply a 100 blows but one thing to note is that it is not the 100th blow that breaks the wall, it is a combination of effects from the very first blow. This brings me to the recent statement credited to the Oba of Lagos to the Igbos. I condemn the statement and I believe every right-thinking person should do the same in the interest of peace and civility. What I want to tell my Igbo people is that the Oba's outburst is not just as a result of the forth-coming gubernatorial election in Lagos but a combination of factors. I hear some of our people calling Lagos a no-man's-land and this is just too bad; this is the height of arrogance and disrespect. How can we move into a Yoruba land, enjoying God's blessings and prosperity only to turn round and tell the people that their land belongs to nobody, that we feed them, and that they cannot survive without us and all the other rubbish and provocative stuff??
Clearly the Oba has been harbouring this anger as a result of the arrogance and provocation of our Igbo people and just could not contain it this time and lashed out.
My Igbo brothers, can we sit down and ask ourselves why we have been so aggressive towards the Yorubas? What have they done wrong to us to deserve this provocation and arrogance? The Yorubas are a very peaceful people and we turn round to call them cowards and all sorts of names. What do we want the Yorubas to do to prove to us that they are not cowards, rise up and go on a killing spree? These Yorubas even returned all our properties to us after the civil war something even our close neighbours in the SS didn’t do!
What does it take to respect your host and do as they wish my people for Christ’s sake? We are prosperous in Yoruba land and are enjoying the land and have no problem with the people, all they are for is for us to know our limits and give them their respect is this too much to ask from us? Let me ask my people one honest question, why are we not shouting that Kano is a no-man’s land The Yorubas have been very nice and taking all these insults from us and we turn around to point our fingers in their noses and call them cowards! Jesus! We claim to be Christians and worship God, is it not written in the bible that blessed are the peace makes for they shall be called the children of God?
My Igbo people please see a sample of what is making the Yorubas very angry with us:
1. I WILL ELEVATE EZE NDIGBO TO THE STATUS OF OBA OF LAGOS - JIMI AGBAJE.
2. IGBO WILL DETERMINE WHO RULES LAGOS- IFEANYI UBAH
3. LAGOS IS NO MAN'S LAND.- IFEANYI UBAH DURING TAN CAMPAIGN.
4. IGBO DEVELOPED AND CONTROL LAGOS- JIMI AGBAJE DURING GEJ CAMPAIGN IN AKWA IBOM
5. WE MUST PRODUCE THE NEXT DEPUTY GOVERNOR OF LAGOS- EZE NDIGBO
MY QUESTIONS TO IGBOS,
1. CAN OBI OF ONITHSA ACCEPT ALL THE ABOVE MENTIONED?
2. CAN EMIR OF KANO ACCEPT ....?
3. DO YOU HAVE ANY SINGLE TRIBE IN YOUR CABINET IN THE EAST?
4. CAN ANY TRIBE CLAIM ONITHSA OR ABA TO BE NO MAN,S LAND?
5. CAN OBI OF ONITHSA ACCEPT THE ELEVATION OF SARKIN HAUSA IN ONITHSA TO OBI STATUS?
[size=16pt]I want to use this medium to appeal to well-meaning Yorubas to forgive the childishness and foolishness of our people. Please drop any plans of violence being planned against our people and all other diplomatic ways of punishing our people in your land including Lagos.
We recognise that LAGOS IS A YORUBA LAND and will respect that. Please I appeal for calm and understanding. I am inviting some Yorubas I respect on this forum to help reach out to your people to be calm, I have personally decided to start a campaign to reorientate our people as God helps me in my own way to change the way we think.
Even God told Moses that if he could find just 10 righteous people he will not destroy Sodom & Gomorrah. Igbos like me are far more than 10 in Lagos and other areas of SW. Please do not bring out the beast in you and and please allow better judgement prevail over emotions.[/size]

Why is the op now all of a sudden concerned after years ibos spent degrading Yoruba? Is it because Yoruba are about to treat their f'ups?Where are the letters he wrote to his people pleading with them to stop taunting Yoruba?

Actually No. You might want to go and recheck that thread about your oba making those statement. Majority of your yoruba brothers supported him, even went to the extent of taunting igbos. The insults to your oba is what resulted out from you people taunting. That's one thing I can't stand about you people. You ppl try to lie through your teeth and play victim.
When that hausa boy went on twitter and requested for the killing of Igbo ppl during the presidency election..how many igbos went crazy over it? Very few and that's because we actually saw the northerners condemn the boy in Linda ikeji, twitter and other blogs till the point the boy started recanting and lying he was "hacked". Even though, we know the north did the whole swamble to save face and there defense most likely wasn't their true intent but the fact they did it calmed down nerves. While for this one, all we saw was out right justification, applause, agreeing with the Oba and even taunting. Now that una gra gra have finally caught many attention and your oba is getting insulted daily, you ppl want to recant and play victim. Spare us una usual act pls.
Not all of us are like this coward OP. Not all of us will twist it like it is just to appease you people hateful, vile and despicable hatred una bore for the average igbo person. When I read most of the statement in the thread, it followed a pattern . The oba did something wrong the ibos castigated him , called him names, abused him and cursed him . Because of the reaction of the ibos , some yorubas felt insulted and replied negatively due to their reverence for the post the oba held . You can see that the issue has shifted from "what the oba said", "if he is right or wrong" to "what can you do if the oba said so " . Most yorubas do not accept what the oba said , but they reacted to the ibos reaction, these reaction is what u are also reacting to thereby shifting the issue from the statement of the oba to the issue of cowardice, hatred and all others. If the ibos have waited for the yorubas to tell the oba he is wrong without recourse to abuse and threat, the issues might not have resulted to this. You cannot compare the statements made by a citezen to a statement made by an oba, both are handled differently . In yorubaland , high ranking obas are well respected, and their is a process of solving mistakes made by those who occupy the seat. Abuse of that post might make the subjects react , the reaction and the subsequent re-reaction is what I do not know or want experience. And if you also do not want to experience such , the catalyst that assist such reactions should be taking away. When you call a man coward, lazy, dirty, u tell him his land does not belong to him , even if it is true ,I wonder how you expect him to view you, with love and respect? Naa! , I dnt think so . You can punch ur friend and he might laugh it off, u might even slap him and it will end up being solved over a couple of beers, but you poke him in eye! , friendship will be trown into the dustbin . 1 Like 2 Shares |

When I read most of the statement in the thread, it followed a pattern . The oba did something wrong the ibos castigated him , called him names, abused him and cursed him . Because of the reaction of the ibos , some yorubas felt insulted and replied negatively due to their reverence for the post the oba held . You can see that the issue has shifted from "what the oba said", "if he is right or wrong" to "what can you do if the oba said so " . Most yorubas do not accept what the oba said , but they reacted to the ibos reaction, these reaction is what u are also reacting to thereby shifting the issue from the statement of the oba to the issue of cowardice, hatred and all others. If the ibos have waited for the yorubas to tell the oba he is wrong without recourse to abuse and threat, the issues might not have resulted to this.
You cannot compare the statements made by a citezen to a statement made by an oba, both are handled differently . In yorubaland , high ranking obas are well respected, and their is a process of solving mistakes made by those who occupy the seat. Abuse of that post might make the subjects react , the reaction and the subsequent re-reaction is what I do not know or want experience. And if you also do not want to experience such , the catalyst that assist such reactions should be taking away. When you call a man coward, lazy, dirty, u tell him his land does not belong to him , even if it is true ,I wonder how you expect him to view you, with love and respect? Naa! , I dnt think so . You can punch ur friend and he might laugh it off, u might even slap him and it will end up being solved over a couple of beers, but you poke him in eye! , friendship will be trown into the dustbin . I didn't even read this. After reading your first sentence and seeing the out right lie and playing victim, I knew the rest is going to follow through. My answer to your lies, make sure the evidence is not still out. https://www.nairaland.com/2239278/guber-poll-oba-lagos-readsHere you go. Compare and contrast on just page 0 alone, how many of your brothers supported and taunted igbos based on the obas stupidity rants to how many igbos insulted him or even how many Yorubas condemn him. After you do so then read the entire thread from beginning to end and redo the same comparison Mtchewwwww. You people lie no be small to convert una feces. Btw: this is not all. This is just the first thread that started it all, if I drag all up here, you'll hang your head in shame for outright lie |

EUROBOMBER: The recent happenings in Lagos have created so much tension between the Igbo and the Yoruba. There is so much bitterness and hate talk flying around and this will not do us any good.
When you try to break a wall using a sledge hammer, you need to apply several blows before it gives in. You might need to apply a 100 blows but one thing to note is that it is not the 100th blow that breaks the wall, it is a combination of effects from the very first blow. This brings me to the recent statement credited to the Oba of Lagos to the Igbos. I condemn the statement and I believe every right-thinking person should do the same in the interest of peace and civility. What I want to tell my Igbo people is that the Oba's outburst is not just as a result of the forth-coming gubernatorial election in Lagos but a combination of factors. I hear some of our people calling Lagos a no-man's-land and this is just too bad; this is the height of arrogance and disrespect. How can we move into a Yoruba land, enjoying God's blessings and prosperity only to turn round and tell the people that their land belongs to nobody, that we feed them, and that they cannot survive without us and all the other rubbish and provocative stuff??
Clearly the Oba has been harbouring this anger as a result of the arrogance and provocation of our Igbo people and just could not contain it this time and lashed out.
My Igbo brothers, can we sit down and ask ourselves why we have been so aggressive towards the Yorubas? What have they done wrong to us to deserve this provocation and arrogance? The Yorubas are a very peaceful people and we turn round to call them cowards and all sorts of names. What do we want the Yorubas to do to prove to us that they are not cowards, rise up and go on a killing spree? These Yorubas even returned all our properties to us after the civil war something even our close neighbours in the SS didn’t do!
What does it take to respect your host and do as they wish my people for Christ’s sake? We are prosperous in Yoruba land and are enjoying the land and have no problem with the people, all they are for is for us to know our limits and give them their respect is this too much to ask from us? Let me ask my people one honest question, why are we not shouting that Kano is a no-man’s land The Yorubas have been very nice and taking all these insults from us and we turn around to point our fingers in their noses and call them cowards! Jesus! We claim to be Christians and worship God, is it not written in the bible that blessed are the peace makes for they shall be called the children of God?
My Igbo people please see a sample of what is making the Yorubas very angry with us:
1. I WILL ELEVATE EZE NDIGBO TO THE STATUS OF OBA OF LAGOS - JIMI AGBAJE.
2. IGBO WILL DETERMINE WHO RULES LAGOS- IFEANYI UBAH
3. LAGOS IS NO MAN'S LAND.- IFEANYI UBAH DURING TAN CAMPAIGN.
4. IGBO DEVELOPED AND CONTROL LAGOS- JIMI AGBAJE DURING GEJ CAMPAIGN IN AKWA IBOM
5. WE MUST PRODUCE THE NEXT DEPUTY GOVERNOR OF LAGOS- EZE NDIGBO
MY QUESTIONS TO IGBOS,
1. CAN OBI OF ONITHSA ACCEPT ALL THE ABOVE MENTIONED?
2. CAN EMIR OF KANO ACCEPT ....?
3. DO YOU HAVE ANY SINGLE TRIBE IN YOUR CABINET IN THE EAST?
4. CAN ANY TRIBE CLAIM ONITHSA OR ABA TO BE NO MAN,S LAND?
5. CAN OBI OF ONITHSA ACCEPT THE ELEVATION OF SARKIN HAUSA IN ONITHSA TO OBI STATUS?
[size=16pt]I want to use this medium to appeal to well-meaning Yorubas to forgive the childishness and foolishness of our people. Please drop any plans of violence being planned against our people and all other diplomatic ways of punishing our people in your land including Lagos.
We recognise that LAGOS IS A YORUBA LAND and will respect that. Please I appeal for calm and understanding. I am inviting some Yorubas I respect on this forum to help reach out to your people to be calm, I have personally decided to start a campaign to reorientate our people as God helps me in my own way to change the way we think.
Even God told Moses that if he could find just 10 righteous people he will not destroy Sodom & Gomorrah. Igbos like me are far more than 10 in Lagos and other areas of SW. Please do not bring out the beast in you and and please allow better judgement prevail over emotions.[/size]

Alfamann:
We are buying it up. If they don't want, the oba should just ask his people to stop selling land to Igbos. you can buy it up its none of our Biz but it still remains Yoruba territory. babyosisi:
Tell me of any Igbo man that walked up to a Yoruba man and claimed his house,his wife,his children or any property of his Show me a single incidence Instead it is yorubas that dupe Igbos and others constantly in land matters and constitute themselves into agbero groups extorting money from hard working men and women No be so I think am done with you most of your thread and talk are based on tribalism.. You even called the oba a fool... |
