They deceive yourself. Then why can't igbos or Hausa compete for governorship position in Lagos, why only Yorubas.

Ambode said he will make Yoruba language compulsory in higher institution, why not Igbo or Hausa language.

My brother, Lagos is what Yoruba want it to be any day, any time. Take that to the bank.

Sanwochukwu just won primaries I heard.

When Lagos became capital of Nigeria and a cosmopolitan city, it lost its uniqueness to a tribe, it now belongs to all Nigerians equally. Proximity has given Yorubas advantage wrt numbers but igbos have more investment in Lagos than any other tribe. Abuja also is for everybody with igbos having the largest investments

Lagos is for everybody but Anambra is for the Igbo lol

Igbos have the largest investment in Lagos hehehe

Lol, I just hope he controls his emotion this time around. The last press conference was a no no, I still feel that press conference did more damage than good to him. So I sha hope he has learnt
Now that he lost, it sure going to be worst.

He might agree to a script well planned by decamping to a lesser party that is not PDP..Support buhari in the general elections and decamp back to APC once he wins the governorship elections..In politics anything is possible cos is all about interest..Just be smart!
He would fail woefully.,

True but agbaje is waiting for him there and boy will it be a messy fight. If I were to be ambode I'll damage apc, risk impeachment, decamp and be d flag bearer for either labour party or adc
And does that make sense?
When he stands a chance of a compensation soon, remember nobody knew him and by his performance in the primary where he couldn't put up a good fight,I doubt if he'll be able to muster 100k votes in the election proper and that means eternal political Oblivion for him

globemoney:

Yes, it is the only state where an Ambode from ondo can contest and become governor
odogwu125:

Of course it is. You better wake up to that sad reality

The thing is my mum is from Lagos. Lagos Island to be precise. She can trace four generations back to her family house in Lagos Island. The history of Lagos from the period of the aworis showed that yorubas dominated the landscape prior to the Oba of Benin expedition. Every Oba of Lagos has been yoruba. Historically, yorubas have been the dominant tribe in Lagos even before Nigeria became a Nation.

Saying that Lagos is a melting point for everyone is acceptable. After all it is the commercial capital of Nigeria and so many tribes have lived their entire life here which is why its a melting point. London is another classic example as the curent Mayor of London is of Pakistani Origin. Look at the way Nigerians are moving to Canada for better opportunities in droves. Canada is also becoming a melting point.

I cant imagine the Mayor of London now saying simply because he is of pakistani origin, London is now a no mans land. Or, the millions of Nigerians and Africans who have left for Canada should now turn back and say that Canada is a no mans land simply because maybe one Nkechi Adebunmi is now Prime Minister of Canada.

The thing is when you say Lagos is a no mans land, you actually attempt to diminish the cultural ties that generations have had in Lagos prior to migration. Based on almost every known record, yorubas were the orignial settlers in Lagos. If I now move to Enugu or Kano and i am popular in my community there and i speak the language and i win a seat in the house of reps there, can i then also turn arround and say Enugu or Kano is no mans Land ?

Lagos is a melting point. You can say you are also a Lagosian. It can be our land together if you want but to say its a no mans land in the context you say is offensive/insensitive to say the least.

This is my submission.

You mean ezendigbo who are or is not recognized by law? Ask the British, US and other foreign countries including the FGN who the King of Lagos is and they will point at Akiolu, Oba of Lagos, same way they recognized Sultan of Sokoto, Emirs of Kano, Zazau, katsina etc, Alaafin of Oyo in Oyo, Ooni of Ice, Obong of Calabar, Obi of Onitsha, Asagba of Asaba etc. Stop deceiving yourself over Lagos, rather, focus on how to develop Igbo land.
