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?
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

Honestly I was surprised to read this post too..the guy is one of a kind.

Dat niggur aint igbo, even if he is he has been brainwashed. We call people like him ndi igbo lagos.
Check properly a yoruba man is feeding that foool.

Many.

.

The dude is delusional and have refused to learn from the history of his people, he lives in a fantasy world, but fortunately for Ndiigbo, he is on his own, strictly OYO.

Achebe talked about people like him in the book " there was a country".

LAGOS- BELONGS TO THE YOURBA'S

ABUJA- BELONGS TO THE GWARRI'S

IGBO SHOULD BE VERY CAREFUL WITH THEIR STATEMENTS.

IF THEY TRY THE NONSENSE THEY ARE DOING IN LAGOS, THEY WILL BE ROASTED. grin

He Preach Peace.. Fine!!!

But he messed up by putting almost the whole blame on Igbos !!

All i know is..
To ur tent oh Israel!!

This is one of things that led to the holocaust,
Hitler wasn't always a nazi, peoples' utterances and actions made him one,
Let's be very careful of our utterances on here,
You can't fight a tribe in their backyard and win, America tried it, with all it sophisticated weaponry, for 14yrs the couldn't defeat the taliban,
Peace is all we need,
peace is all we seek

.

What we all should be concerned about right now is how to move our country forward
