You just have to give it to the co-ordination of the Southwest Governors..

I like the way they are going about it to be candid. I just hope that this is not another move to garner supports and sell out after a while... it will be too costly

Conclusion, your Fulani brain is dead! Your nomadic Fulani brain have yet to answer my question on how Bini jumped over Ondo and Ogun to own Lagos? Or how Lagos was named a Yoruba word, eko? Or how Yorubas are the ones living in there and speaking Yoruba language. Your dead brain couldn't answer none of it.

Lagos is a Yoruba land. Sink that into your Fulani skull.

Let me put into your Fulani's brain that Oduduwa for example was said to have descended from the sky hence why the people of Ile-ife made him their king. He acclimatised into Yoruba culture and became one of them. Same was said of Prince Ado. It doesn't make Ile-ife or Eko someone else land.

Zombie Oduduwa descended from which sky? Are you copying Greek mythology?

Ife tradition, which modern Yoruba historians accord precedence, relates that Oduduwa was an emissary from the community of Oke-Ora, the easternmost part of the Ife cultural area which stretches towards the Northeastern Ijesa people. He descended from the Hills on a chain, earning the oriki Atewonro (which means 'one who descends on a chain'). He is said to have been a warrior that wore armor made of iron. At that time, a confederacy existed between the 13 communities of the valley of Ile-Ife, with each community or 'Elu' having its own Oba; the Oba of Ijugbe, the Oba of Ijio, the Oba of Iwinrin etc.

When Oduduwa rose to be a prominent citizen of ancient Ife, he and his group are believed to have conquered or gained support of most of the 13 component communities and deposed Obatala, subsequently evolving the palace structure with its effective centralized power and dynasty. Due to this, he is commonly referred to as the first Ooni of Ife and progenitor of the legitimate kings of the Yoruba people.

Ode. No one knows where Oduduwa came from. He was different hence why the Yoruba referred him as a sky god. Obviously he came from a place which no one knows. Anyway, he acclimatised into Yoruba culture and became one of them and the people in Ile Ife made him their King. That doesn't make Ile Ife belongs to anyone else! It belongs to the Yoruba! You get?

Wishing you an amazing week going forward.

Cheers!.

He is from Ijesa, who dash am sky God? All that is pure Greek mythology been sold to dummies.

Olidamotors:


I am not Igbo, but I am a student of history. Technically Igbo people together with some other tribes now in the south south were in a sort of Psuedo Confederation called the Aro confederacy, before the British sent their soldiers here in the 1900s and over 10,000 of the Aro soldiers were killed.

Most Igbo people would argue that before the Civil war, there were no igbo speaking clan that had any issue with being called igbo. they all embraced the igbo identity without questions, this obviously is no longer the case since the loss of the civil war. Hence the claim of most igbo people that the British government and Nigeria as a country has bastardized and balkanized igbo people.

I meant no disrespect, only intent was to inform without prejudice. Heres to hoping that you appreciate honesty, Fingers crossed!

Wishing you an amazing week going forward.

Cheers!.

In Greek mythology, the primordial deities are the first generation of gods and goddesses. These deities represented the fundamental forces and physical foundations of the world and were generally not actively worshipped, being largely unanthropomorphized personifications of places or abstract concepts.

Hesiod's firstborn (after Chaos) are Gaia, Tartarus, Eros, Erebus, Hemera and Nyx. Gaia and Uranus in turn gave birth to the Titans, and the Cyclopes. The Titans Cronus and Rhea then gave birth to the generation of the Olympians, Zeus, Poseidon, Hades, Hestia, Hera and Demeter, who overthrow the Titans, with the reign of Zeus marking the end of the period of warfare and usurpation among the gods.

How does this nonsense correlate to the topic of the discourse? Just like Oduduwa acclimatised into Yoruba culture, became one of them and was made a king in Ile Ife, so was Prince Ado in Lagos. It doesn't make any of these lands belonging to someone elses! They both belong to the Yorubas, have the Yorubas in the land and speak Yoruba languages. Sink that into your skull!

True talk, Lagos State is Federal Government project, Oba Dosunmu ceded it to the British in 1861, Britain handed it over to The Federal Government on 1st October 1960, before 1861, Lagos Colony was the property of the Oba of Benin as asserted by Oba Kosoko. Go read your history. That is why that Mumu Igboho was rattled by the Federal Government, who told him Lagos was Oduduwa?

just like yorubas own bini by virtue of oranmiyan ruling dynasty

Buckeyemedia1:
Why get into words with you illiterate punk? The first Oba of Lagos to be buried in Lagos was Oba Dosunmu, all other Obas before him were buried in Bini.

Oba ologun kutere was buried in lagos we are descendants of obalufon

You dey mind that Fulani? Bini that have their kings' heads buried in Ile Ife is the one that owns Lagos? They jumped Ondo and Ogun to own Lagos? Na ment?

Only Yoruba's deserve to rule this country.

Kudos to South West governors. This resolution looks matured and I don't see any other way it could be. But this is what a man called Odumegwu Ojukwu argued from the 1960's till it led to the British and Nigeria VS Biafra civil war.

In order for African nations or, in fact, any other colonized country to be successful, they must first discover themselves by understanding that their real identity is their ethnic nationality. And then, if we so much want to be called Nigerian, we must re-negotiate (as the able governors are doing) how we want to co-exist distinct from what European colonialists wanted us to be. Only then shall our diversity make sense because we'll unleash the best of our intellect participating in a nation that we the people created for and by ourselves.

You are like 10years late to the party and you are whining your mouth up and down like you said what no one else had said before you started reasoning.

That is my problem with ipob supporters (always quick to insult). If you can't spot the difference then I am sorry I can't help. Continue your chest beating in peace

DubaiLandLord:
Why do some of you just feel you have to abuse someone before passing an opinion. I hate f00lish people like you.

Government is continuous, you can't expect Tinubu to develop every part of Lagos between 1999 and 2007... If am as daft as you, I will also tell you sanwo olu have constructed more km of roads in ikorodu than Fashola.

I won't be wasting my time with hate filled person like you again. You go shock the way we go vote for him in 2023.

I moveeee

I think this your comment should be directed to yourself. you were the one who insulted me in Yoruba so i made you see the reality of your folly. Tinubu did nothing for Lagos but rather laid a structure akin to a mafia organization with him at the top of the food chain. He hand picks people and places them in positions and you call that continuity!!!!!!!! Bros have a conscience and stop all this image laundering.

I know the core north won't agree to most of this proposals but if the middle belt and the southern governors can agree I believe it can go through.

As usual the devil is in the details.

While SW Governor's are asking for local government council autonomy on one hand they are asking for the power to create local government councils.

Please what was the capital of The Old Western Region of Nigeria, (a) Ibadan, (b) Lagos? The right answer will correct your thinking. Mumudey Lagos State is Federal Government property.

Lagos state cannot be F.G property. Maybe Lagos island, VI and ikoyi. But mainland is staunchly southwest.
The whole of Ikeja, oshodi all the way to ikorodu and extending to lekki was part of western region.
It's just like claiming otta, Agbara or mowe is part of Lagos state because of proximity.
He go shock all of u when the map is redrawn and 90 percent of Lagos remain in southwest.
Any way, that's unnecessary; if Nigeria breaks up, Lagos will be fully incorporated into southwest including the okun people in kogi and igbomina in kwara.
U guys can have ilorin until they receive sense n regard omoluabi ethics above a foreign religion.

E don dey done!!!!

Ok it is you that will tell the Federal Government of Nigeria which part of Lagos belongs to them? because it was your ancestors that demarcated the boundaries? Nothing less than the Igboho treatment will be administered on you, the moral of the story is simple, nobody is going anywhere, where you own history stops, another person’s starts., anyone who tries any secessionist rubbish will be dealt with.

The Federal Government allowed the illiterate secessionist act the fool in Ondo, Ogun, Osun, Ekiti, Oyo States, I guess he saved the best for last, the second he mentioned Lagos, he became a thing of the past, history, a fugitive on the run.

This is why I love South westerners, they don't joke, if they want something, they will sit and discuss it and get it, not my confused leaders from South East, never speak in One voice.

Look at this Fulani Terrorist. You can do nothing to Igboho. If dey born the cowardly Buhari well, let him visit Igboho in his house! Who's Buhari without the federal might? He dey ment? Btw, it's Lagos who fed you fools, including the fg and the accursed North! Sink that into your nomadic parasitic skull!
