Very on point. You cannot believe the number of these Yoruba families I'm helping to feed in Lagos. Most of them from Ondo, Osun and Ekiti. Almost everybody working on my properties are Yoruba. From the Bricklayer, the Mason, Carpenter up to the project supervisor. They don't have any basis whatsoever to complain about the Igbos. They should rather be grateful.

That Owo Iyaloja is paid mostly by Igbo traders.

Alkanoicacid:


It is U igbos that think you're better than any tribe and hate us.

meforyou1:
Lagos is no man's land. even a prominent lagos indigene said it, that lagos belong to binis. all those yoruba from osogbo should go back to their rural slums. we developed lagos from when it was water and sand to what it is now, so we have the bragging right.

leezzz:

lagos is no man's land bcuz its d former NATIONAL capital
Ibadan was d former yoruba region capital not Lagos
and also all ds peeps sitting in lagos shouting SE is undeveloped lol a trip to d east will clear ur doubts

meforyou1:
house of rep member in lagos - igbo. house of assembly member in lagos - igbo. very soon, we will win governor of lagos. and nothing you or your brothers from osogbo can do about it

Bede2u:
u are not Igbo. Otherwise u should know not to wash ur dirty linens outside. This thread will not do anything other than insult Igbos who u claim to be one of.

Young man, am from the east and a red cap title holder (an nze). Just because a place was a former capital doesn't make it no mans land and it be of an advantage to the yoruba because of the mindset you keep developing lagos and neglecting the east. Try and check the meaning of no man's land.

This



WILL NOT HAPPEN IN LAGOS

Heavance:

It seems you are affected by my post, and I never quoted anyone.
Mind you, I am not from their land at all.
If they misbehave, must you join them?
Leave them, when they will be addressed they will be quiet, just like they're with Nnamdi Kanu right now.
Your hate speech is just destroying our unity more, and making the northerners stronger.

generalbush:
Lol

If Igbo's didnt develop Lagos, then who did?


Is it our father's who keep shouting Owo da at every bustop,

Or our mothers who sell Alomo and Agbo that will develop it??

Nawa ooo ... Lol

I very much doubt if you are Igbo with this azz-licking and ridiculous heading. You could simply ask Igbos to invest in Igbo land without having to bring up the issue of Lagos into it.

Lagos has never been a Yoruba Land. 97% of Yorubas in lagos are immigrants just like the Igbos, Hausas, Binis and other SS peoples. It is and will always remain a cosmopolitan entity for the entire nation. Yorubas are more in Lagos because of the proximity of core Yoruba states to Lagos.

Igbos are many there because of our ubiquitous and adventurous nature.

Igbos should invest more in Igbo states. I agree. But that has nothing to do with Lagos being 'no man's land'. Stop sucking up to Yorubas. that is if you are actually Igbo.

PointB:



Bro, abeg leave stories for the god. Anyone can claim Nze or any title online, with doggy proofs. If truly you are what you claimed you are, you'll know being and Nze does not elevate your voice far and above others in gathering of Umunnas. So please keep your title under your armpit, it's of no consequence here in cyber.

As per matter at hand, anyone can call any city whatever he feels especially under the anonymity of cyber. Situation on ground may be differ, but you cannot rob a man of his opinion because it threatens your interest.

Again my dear 'Nze', Lagos is "No Man's Land." I have goggled the meaning, but I do not care. Calling Lagos No Man's Land to the consternation of some simpletons is a way of telling them that I reserved the rights to exercise my freedom of speech without let or hindrance.

I don't have to be politically correct cos someone feels his ox has been gored, when it aint so.

Gotze1:
We don't want unity with igbos simple.

Gotze1:
Because he's not as stupid as you.

Abi, just like I like calling enugu n anambra a no man's land. Just as you said, it is to make yourself happy. So case close.

EponOjuku:
Mind you, the quiet Yoruba man is the most dangerous. The revolution would not be televised.

PointB:
Saying Lagos is "No man's land" does not in anyway means we are neglecting the East/Homeland. The idea is to maximize the benefit of Lagos to develop the East.

We must not lose sight of our contributions in Lagos, yet we must capitalize on the gains of those contribution to develop our homeland. We can't just pack up and leave Lagos, nor can anyone run us out of our investments in the growth Lagos. That's why we say "Lagos is No Man's Land." And that's what it will remain in the foreseeable future if Nigeria continue to exist as it is now!

Oga, cut the crap. You people say Lagos is a no man's land, simply because you want to spite the indigenes of Lagos, their cultural siblings and other ethnic groups living there.

And by saying so, you create enmity between the indigenes, those who share cultural affinity with them and others from different ethnic groups like mine, who have lived there for ages. This is because the Lagos indigenes and Yorubas, then end up viewing the rest of us from other places with hostility and suspicion, even though we have nothing in common with Igbo people like you, who make such asinine statements! Don't make life difficult for others, with your clueless remarks biko. Can you repeat this trash about Lagos being a no man's land in the heart of Olowogbowo, Ikeja or Isale Eko?

meforyou1:
which nonsense yoruba land. a prominent lagos indigene from lagos island said in clear terms that lagos is not yorubaland. https://www.nairaland.com/4185186/bini-original-owners-lagos-not

PointB:
I don't see people going about offline calling Lagos No Man's Land. Most of these banters are online. Most Lagosians can handle a joke, except simpletons like you who take everything to heart and over-analyze issues. Personally, I don't care if your ox is gored. If people suspect you it's simply because you have not carried yourself well. You should start improving yourself and face things within your control.

What I do online and offline is not within your control. Learn to compartmentalize; let what happen on cyber remain on cyber! You will suffer undue heartache agonizing over my action. I'm sorry, but your cyber existence is of no consequence to me. Bros, you do not matter, you are a text!

donb06:
am a niger deltan and bliv me we were taught to bliv dt yorubas are highly educated and the igbos also highly educated, are good economists....... these facts i found to b true. if you look at the set of people dt made nigeria proud in pre-independent and immediately after independence era - are yorubas and igbos.am from rivers and if you come over to P.H we realy envy these two tribes. almost all the competitions are won by them, entertainment dominated by them, sports, business world, religion, what i dont understand about this fight is.... is it a battle for supremacy? or is it a curse on nigeria, that the two set of people thats supposed to champion the nigerian course are busy hating themselves. the most disturbing part is that this hatred is championed by the future leaders. am here to say confidently that the biggest loser in this igbo and yoruba rift is neither of them but NIGERIA as a whole.

We the Igbos are very great people and maximum risk takers. The Yorubas are also great people.

We (Igbos) belief the best place to crack the egg is that at the Big End (we love to hit it big), but the Yorubas say they are very sophisticated. They think the egg should be cracked at the small end, they like playing small little tricks. But we have refused to do it their way, and they refuse to do it our way.

So we continue to fight!

laudate:


You would be shallow, if you think that such statements as the one you made, are simply regarded as online banter. Fake news and false stories such as yours' , have a way of spreading if it is not checked, and before you know it, such tales become legend.

If you like repeating such trash, in order to feel good about yourself, or because it gives you some kind of a high....continue. Just remember that to every action, there is an equal and opposite reaction. And if you make life difficult for others, through your clueless remarks, then worse things will be visited on you too. It is the law of Karma. Continue sowing petty propaganda and deceit, and see what you would reap!

SolidGenius:
True talk! Igbos must start to understand that Lagos will always be yoruba land.

The Foolish Obiano already poured kerosene into this madness.

MightySparrow:
Nonsense thread. Igbo's made Lagos what it is now. Igbo man will one day rule in Oba of Lagos's palace.
