Lagos was built by Nigeria ...all major project was carried out by the federal government 3rd mainland bridge to the airport to the seaport

Yoruba claiming Lagos is like north claiming Abuja

If yorubas was hospitable as they want us to believe ...none yorubas would full ibadan ,abiokuta and other yoruba cities but that's not the case


Lagos is Nigerian project and that's a fact

Did you go to Ibadan and find Ibo missing there?

Have you visited Dugbe, Mokola, Ring Road, Challenge and did not see Ibo people selling their fashion wares and motor parts, or at Gates, selling their building materials?

Where are the Yorubas and the Hausas given the same liberty to sell in Enugu and Onitsha? If they try it, overnight all their stores will be looted by robbers supported by the whole indigenes.

Ibos want access to other people's lands while they are denying other tribes access to their own lands.

Very soon, it wiil be "back to your tents O Isreal" and then we will see who will be the ultimate losers.

What an argument. In elementary geography there is what is called the pull and push factor for population? The pull factors such as economic attractiveness, peace, infrastructure are not as much in the other Yoruba lands as Lagos, nevertheless you go to nearby Ogun state which is not Federal project as alleged by you and tell me if there are no considerable Igbo population as you claim.
Now, imagine if they stop selling land to your people because of such comment as yours, you will be the first to run outside shout marginalisation. Let us put behind us all these unprofitable sentiments and move forward.

Argue with prove from your region or state of origin


Childish!!!

Stop being a myopic retard .

If not for the foolishness of our leaders, you would have been smart enough to know that 21 million people living on an area of 1000+km is unhealthy, backward, uncivilized and retrogressive!!!

Keep deceiving yourselves but the future doesn't belong to Lagos. It will be a story to remember in the future. grin grin

If not for the political suffocation been subjected on SE/SS by the core Fulani cabals in the military. Lagos would not in anywhere compare and compete with hard working SE.

Don't use Igbo for instances, use your middlebelters for referencing .

Reread your comment and you'll see that you've made no sense at all. Yes Yorubas are hospitable, Hausas are hospitable too but Lagos still remains an effort of the entire Nigerians.

Igbos want access to people land ...as if they got the land for free

No tribe has ever given the Igbo man land ..we pay for everything we get ...even if igbos separate those lands belong to us and we would come for them

.......God go bless you what they don't understand is that if they like let them buy the whole Lagos which I am very sure is not possible by the time they get their Biafra they will still need visa to visit Lagos that's when they will know that Lagos is never a no man's land but Ule Oodua.

you crazy. Lagos can survive without the FG if Nigeria dissolves today. Infact FG stopped allocation s for four years to Lagos and Lagos survived. Question is can Abuja survive without a federal allocation today ??
Lagos will not survive without Nigeria, never.
If all foreigners leave Lagos , there would be no difference between it n togo or benin republic. You guys keep deceiving yourselves that Lagos proximity to the Atlantic Ocean is the reason for its development, but you forget that Benin n togo are also close to the Atlantic but where are they today. Despite the fact that the Benin ports are more active than the Lagos ports, yet they are no where near Lagos in terms of wealth. This simply points to the fact that Lagos is what it is because it has Nigeria as its back up. Lagos should be grateful to the british that chose Lagos as its first capital after the Nigerian amalgamation. That singular decision is the reason Lagos is where it is today amongst other states.
Lagos is nothing n will be nothing without Nigeria.

If Mc Oluomo sees this now,he will start pursuing the IBOs in Lagos and they will start crying like before. Yoruba people are sensible, they allow ibos to invest in their land and boost their economy. When it comes to election, they lock them inside their room and tell them they should behave or they will send them packing. The next thing you will hear from IBO is"leave them, Tinubu has used their head, I can not come and die in Yoruba land" .After election, we accommodate them again. You guys are our brothers, we love you. Just that your chest beating is second to none. I have many Igbo friends here in Lagos, they are doing well

That is absolutely incorrect. The funds that were withheld was LG funds and not state funds. Lagos got its regular month allocation from FAAC.

The same way you did during the civil war?

If not for the magnanimity of other tribes many of your fathers would have lost everything.

But this time many of us are fed up to the neck with your stupidity and foolish boasting. So when the time come to divide the nation, there is no coming back for your people to reclaim your lost or abandoned assets, because we would have commandeered all of them for our own use.

So thank you for beautifying our environment with your mansions which will become our own in the end.

so when will ur own village become Nigeria project too, is Ogun not Yoruba land what are ur people doing there, if I may ask since Lagos is no man land when will people from ur village become the govern of Lagos state? well with the look of things seems u are Igbo inside the east and not Igbo outside the east.

A city in the south-east region can become just like Lagos....if not better, with the emergence of Biafra or a homgenous Igbo nation. Lagos attained its present position because of Nigeria and inspite of just one particular ethnicity. Calabar or Port Harcourt would have been just as prominent if the Nigerian political-economy in place since the late 60s had given them the focus and edge it had given to Lagos.

Elections in Lagos are not free and fair....everybody knows this!

In fact Okotie-Eboh brought Berger & Bilfinger to Nigeria.
Lagos was shaped by people across Nigeria. And slave returnees. Benin even gave the place it's name: Eko (camp) being a war camp of Benin Empire.

Lagos is a melting pot. Very unique. It wasn't even part of Western Region in the 1960s. It was on its own.

Today we call it SW. It shows how Nigeria gradually veered into extreme tribalism since the civil war.
