having stayed in Nigeria from a while and having understood the political landscape, i will say Lagos state governor is a tribal-list , i went through his commissioners lists and other positions, i could not find any ibo on the list, please, isn't this bad for a state that the ibos control virtually every aspect of the economy, what if the ibos decides to park their belongings and go back to East wont this affect Lagos state ?

Does choosing state commissioners now require the approach of federal character? No

The governor picks whoever he wants to

So

Too early to start a tribal cyber war

Lol any Yoruba person who takes them satellite-dish heads here seriously needs help cheesy grin

Off Nairaland, it's a different ball game and serious people who see the comments of the Gigbo touts
here just laugh cheesy. Comic relief kind of grin

The No man's land garbage, the controlling of economy yarns are just Grade A entertainment offline.

They live in fool's paradise.. A world where they create their own lies, the things they want to believe and
the things that helps surpress their inferiority complex and consistently repeat it to themselves cheesy grin

For a state as evolved as it is, lagos should be lesson to other states, a
nomenclature of zero tribalism, unity, accountability, equity and every other thing that a nation require to thrust ahead. i asked for the list not because i want to find out if igbos were appointed, but to know if at least anyother non indegene was included. if this topic refered to another state wouldn't mind.

i would say this again, lagos wouldn't be where it is today without the contributions of non yorubas.
however the governor is free to choose whoever he wants in his cabinet.

If I give you slap from my PC, no be only 5 na 100 cheesy grin There are only 2 of them. Nwoolu and Orji. Oghene is not even Gigbo
and chances are it will take another 50 years before a Gigbo gets in again grin

There is no Gigbo LG chairman in Lagos even in Ojo LG where y'all settle your flat-heads cheesy. I swear una
own don spoil

And there is only one Gigbo in the Lagos state house of Assembly i.e Idimogu

Even in that Lagos state house of Assembly, a lot of members are beginning to get tired of his red-mud ass
because he's always against anything Pro-Yoruba but unfortunately, one man can't change anything

That's something y'all should be worried about considering the huge population of Gigbos in Lagos

Let's just say overall, there are just about 4 Gigbos in the Lagos state Government and they don't even
occupy significant positions

Una never tchee anytchin. Na our generation go worse pass with all these hate cheesy
