Who blocked a Nincompoop like you from coming to the East?
Everything starts in a day. The diversity and openness of Lagos state started in a day. But u people in the east don't want it. U want to benefit from the diversity of the south west, while u all want to shut down every non-igbos down in the south east. U are an hypocrite

Lagos was built by Yorubas. If you want to be schooled about the history of Lagos and its developments, stage by stage, epoch by epoch, including political structure, traditional heirarchies, social elitism, I would be more than happy to oblige you. It would declare for you once and for all that though Igbo has been living in Lagos for a long time, those that came behind you have gained permanent foothold in Lagos while you continue to struggle and beg for recognition.
We aren't arguing about the historic achievements of Lagos natives.
This argument is on the diversity that has built the Modern Lagos state which every Nigerian citizen can proudly celebrate.
No, Lagos was not built solely by the Yorubas irrespective of it's location on yoruba land.

Lagos was built by yorubas... I have asked you this question so many times.. Tell us the contributions of igbos in lagos? Lagos generates huge chunk of it's IGR from PAYE not 2*2 corner shops

A good number of famous establishments in Lagos are not owned or built by yorubas.

What makes a great society is the level of development and civility of its citizens not the traditional owners of the land.

Baba, You have spoken well because judging from the recent hatred words oozing from ipob members in the east hence enough to stop them from holding any political office outside their zones. You should know by now some of them want to eat their cake and have it back. Even if that wants to happen, no need to spew hateful words to your hosts forgetting you will need them in future. Can any tribe go to east to contest for political office? Let's even start from land purchase, they won't sell their land to non indigenes let alone from another tribe.

However according to the law, they have the right to contest for electoral post even now that it's happening in a domain dominated by them.

I have some handful liberal igbo friends in amuwo Odofin, Ojo, festac who seriously hate the recent agitation to secede giving strong instance to why one Nigeria would benefit them more than biafra.

Oga, how many times have you gone to the east with your money to buy land in a place that other people are doing same and they refused to sell to you because you are not from there.
You people just hide behind keypads and type unfounded allegations. The Igbo man doesn't care about who you are, as long as you pay him his money, him no send!
Most of you people peddling these allegations have never attempted to leave your region and someone else left his, came to your place, worked hard to get what he now owns, not even like you gave him free land and you wake up one day to ask how many plots of land your people own in his village.

The road to the east is wide open and everyone is welcomed oooo!

APC be careful, hausa fulani know these unpredictable people more than you and they keep them at arm's length, they never give them chance to operate in Kano but we allowed them to be yet they abuse Yoruba silly and slogan "Lagos is no man's land. I ofe nmanu hate Biafra with passion.

Thank you. If any Igbo man owns any property in the core north that property is inside the 'Sabongari' of the respective town/city. They are kept at arms length and you hardly see an Igbo man abuse Hausa/Fulani. They despise and them and hold them in contempt but they dare not say it out.

The Yoruba's welcome Igbo with open arms not just in Lagos but all over the Yoruba nation you find Igbo people owning choice property and deeply entrenched in the traditional & economic life of such communities even deep in the hinterland like Ife, Akoko, Owo etc. (there are places in Ibo land where you will never get property to buy as a stranger they just freeze you out)

Yet all you will hear is Yoruba is dirty, Yoruba is treacherous, Yoruba is cowardly. But they will never leave Yoruba land, they will stay there and prosper and raise their children successfully. There is hardly any Ibo you see that doesnt speak either Yoruba or Hausa too because they were brought up in these places. They gave you the space and you prospered. Yet you continue to despise them and you will never leave.

Nobody can eat his cake and still have it

One of the reasons why I'm happy being a Yoruba is because we have developed our land to the extent that we hardly migrate in search of greener pastures. . We believe we can make it here in our land, we have systematically diversified our economy to the extent that we control every aspect of the Nigerian economy.. A yoruba man can't just leave his village and decides to go to Aba when people from Aba are here in the south west complaining how life is difficult over there. .. That's why i said we don't do Urban-Rural migration. .. We had the first television station in West Africa at Ibadan even before France had its own... Awolowo had the foresight to build industrial Estates in ikeja, we had the tallest building in West Africa then built with proceeds from the sales of cocoa. .

So tell me why we need to start migrating to igbo villages when we have all the things you guys dream of having

Yes, my uncle.



Expect my pm later in the day. I have someone in Aba who wants to buy.



You made a thorough research on host. Good of you, now let me ask how about an Igbo governor/government appointing a yoruba man/woman in their cabinet. Can you reference one since the ardent of democracy from 1999?

About omo oriles, I condemn their act which is very disgraceful however ask yourself why other tribes find it difficult to troop into your region against you people coming to the SW.



If you understand adjective well, it can form various meaning in a sentence even though it portrays a primary meaning. The way I used the word "dominate" does not mean conquer but the show the population distribution of people from diverse culture in a territory.

So you had to lie, just to prove a point, your Uncle was not able to buy a land in Igboland because he was a Yoruba man, I hear you
Please which state and LGA did this happen? And when?

I'm strongly waiting for your PM, don't disappear or disappoint, but if you're just trolling, don't bother sending me any Pm, I don't have time for jokes.

How many Yoruba Governors have appointed Igbo people?, and how many Yoruba states? Isn't it the usual LAGOS, and I believe we have justified this issue.

How many Yorubas are resident in Igbo states, where will the Igbo Governors appoint them from undecided, probably the will stroll to Akure and pick up one Bamidele Bankole and bring him to Ebonyi state to be Permanent Secretary, Ministry of Health. undecided

Oga, be logical for once.
Igbos are highly populated in places the are appointed or elected, this is not nuclear physics, it's as simple as ABCD.
Lagos is a strategic place in Nigeria, no state can compare with Lagos, it has been structured since it's creation to be the economic hub of Nigeria, and luckily for Yorubas, Lagos is their Geopolitical land..
Now, Igbos are economic and business enthusiasts, so naturally Lagos is an abode for them.

Stop deceiving yourself that Igbos are tropping to South West, which kind south west undecided, say LAGOS.
one state in the South west, how many Igbos are in Osun state, Ekiti State, Oyo state undecided, do Igbos contest elections there too?, are Igbos appointed into political offices there undecided

Pls educate me!!!

Many Nigerians can't do without Lagos, I have explained this in another thread before, everything in Nigeria is concentrated on Lagos which is very bad
? Do you know that no Nigerian living in Nigeria can get a USA visa without coming to Lagos or sometimes Abuja
Do you know that, no Nigerian can import anything on sea without using Apapa seaport?
Do you know that most international Flights only depart and arrive in Lagos MM2
I can give you over 20 reasons why we come to Lagos, we are not really happy about this, that's why everyone is shouting Restructure, Biafra etc

Because of this lopsided Country, and Note the money used to develop Lagos, wasn't only from YORUBA ETHNIC GROUP, Niger Delta oil, other Government Revenues which is Nigeria's collective wealth was Channeled to Lagos, it was even a Capital before.

Oil exploration in Niger Delta degrading their environment, while Oil company headquarters in Lagos grin, nd you're asking why people come to Lagos, and BTW Igbos are natural entrepreneurs or small business owners, the are nomadic in Business, the move around investing and settling down anywhere the find their feet.

Yoruba are not like that, you guys are not really into nomadic business, by nomadic I don't mean rearing cattle, I Mean movement..

Yorubas don't even travel out of their region, the are the least traveled tribe amongst the 3 major Tribes in Nigeria, I'm talking about Traveling to other states in Nigeria, not Abroad.

The just stay in their region and be hosting and accommodating everybody grin grin, or the move to Peckham, London to continue hosting Britons.

I asked you to mention the tribe that you claimed dominate Lagos (nd don't make noise) more than Igbos and Yorubas, you started to talk about Adjectives and pronouns undecided

Don't be ashamed of Omo oniles, the are part of your people's hospitality and accommodation services

These stuffs you listed happened shortly before and after independence that doesn't mean that same was not replicated in the East. Before the war,the East had the best roads,some of the best schools and health personnels.
The Eastern regional government established cement factories, cocoa and rubber industry to facilate economic activities in the East.
The Coal and steel industry in Enugu was already functioning before independence.
Western Nigeria had it's Tv in 1959 and Azikiwe made sure that Eastern Nigeria had hers in 1960.
When you gloat over these things be sure to know that such was replicated all over the country.
I asked for the Yoruba cities and capitals that can compete with those in the South East?
Perhaps you don't know Igbos in the East are the top most urbanized people in Nigeria?
Avoiding Migration and exploration doesn't mean contentment ironically, it make you parochial, quiant, and myopic.
It limits your knowledge and interaction with other people and invariably make it impossible to think outside the box.
Every part of Nigeria is crying about negligence and decay not just Aba.
Once again,Igbos only travel for business pursuits.
