One thing gave all of you away and that's the C and Z letters in your names cos Yoruba alphabet ain't got C and Z. By default, ibos already know they don't belong in Lagos or anywhere in the southwest.

Stop tagging those minor tribes cos they aren't giving us problems like ibos.
Ibos must attach by force. Na SouthSouth people I sorry for pass. Ibo will not leave them alone no matter how much push-back.

YORUBA NATION IS THE ONLY ANSWER

IT IS ABOUT CULTURAL PRESERVATION

YORUBAS CAN NEVER BE COMFORTABLE LIVING ALONGSIDE IBOS

BOTH CULTURES ARE ANTITHETICAL TO EACH OTHER

THOSE WHO WANT YORUBA TO REMAIN IN NIGERIA WANT YORUBA TO PERISH

Statista(edited) is fake, what a buffon. Many of the statistics are based on observation, consumer purchasing power, consumer spending power, Tax record with government, observed cost and standard of living in area. I am surprised you claim smart, but don't even know you all dont even have to be manually counted before your population can be estimated. You are such a mo.ron. I feel disgusted talking to you. I should be able to estimate a country's population for the next 50 yrs, through regression analysis if I have a standard well calculated determinants .

When asked to compare, eyewitness have always maintained that Anambra has the highest and most dangerous form of thugery and agboror system compared to Lagos. The streets are literal criminal dens. The disadvantage Lagos has is the execessive media coverage.

And you think there are no private schools that cost less that 5000 in the west, oh my God, Are you purposely trying to be dull to win an arguement or you are actually dull. Schools cost 1k here and they still have standard. There is quality even at lowest price.

Portable is an artist, No matter his behaviour he gives art, people are drawn to Art. There are Actors whose Lifes are bleeped and wickedly rude, but are still loved by fans because of their Art.




Lemme just tell you this straight up. You are not smarter or more informed than me so don't insinuate such on this anonymous platform.

Statista doesn't collect data they only cite and publish data from other others which they deem " credible ".

Where you blind to where I mentioned a sample size. Because an informed fellow will know that by virtue of using sample terminology, I understand that not everyone will be counted.

Nevertheless, there is no meta data / evidence of this sample size to even prove that whosever collected this data.

Extrapolating figures from regression analysis will be a farce if the " determinants " as you mentioned are not authentic and rightly calibrated.

Now be truthful is Nigeria transparent, developed or honest enough to represent data in it's purest form. A country that started forging population figures since colonial times inorder to wrestle political power. I doubt so.

Other countries have the metadata and even documentaries of how they perform their census and other data collection and analysis but Nigeria has nothing of such only a bunch of theives pocketing the operational budget and falsifying figures.

Those are the academic journals, published by international agencies statista uses. And the data about the poverty level of the south as stated by me before, probably gotten from this university sources too.

I will compare thugery in Lagos to Anambra.

Anambra is a glorified dirty underdeveloped poverty stricken slum.

The thugs in Anambra are hardened unsympathetic criminals when compared to the Lagos type.

As reported by eyewitnesses and different news agencies. They are known for very evil criminal deeds. "You dare not loose guard in the market" they say. I mean how can a place be so unsafe that walking in the street with an hand bag, now requires security protocols . These same bastards are the ones enacting Monday sit at home and slicing peoples private part and posting it on the internet. But you dare open your dirty brown Igbo mouth to blame Lagos thugs. You are demented

You already saying nonsense agains. NURTW is the one of the major cause of violent clash and havoc in the country. If it was not disbanded, Lagos state would be buried underneath a violent tussle for power by ruthless people.

Disbanding it and having the state controling is the right thing to do, That is how it is done in the saner climes. Government control the transportation. I thought you were informed.

Which boys. Lol. I go to deal with all of your flat heads, and that your face that looks like that of a thief is the one I will keep hiting till you start thinking straight.

Those same research are the ones that makes the UN and the likes give relief packages to your hungry kids, they are the ones giving the little smart ones in the country opportunity to further their studies abroad, those research is what is making the outside world understand what is happening in Nigeria. Those research save lifes.

I as a person know the system is tilted from the top to the buttom, that is why Yoruba comes first in my dictionary, till sensible people are ready and there to fix it. Eradicating bandits cannot take a serious government more than a year. Enacting serious policies can get the whole country registered for NIN in a year. I know the country is hell already.

If you mess up around me either Igbo or fulani, I will give you your size.

Seriously, you are a fool for thinking Nigerian Ph.d's are not important, Nigerian professionals are being recruited into the European Universities every year.

The funny fact is that the country is going no where, You can either leave or kill your self. One thing I know is that: Nigeria has come to stay.

Where did I claim all the data are stored? There are numerous sources to get data for numerous studies, is different from claiming all the data are stored. If I want to do a poverty study in the north, I dont need the data of the bandits .

THE DE-YORUBANIZATION AGENDA OF YORUBALAND

The agenda of "so-called" fellow southerners most especially many south easterners in the de-yorubanization of Lagos and other Yoruba spaces is real and not a conspiracy theory. This agenda is the same as the Fulanization agenda, only the methodology is different.

Starting from Nnamdi Azikwe and Jaja Nwachukwu, the rhetorics of no man's land was popularized by this duo in order to turn Yorubaland into a settler colony politically and economically. This allegations are historically correct and factual, if not why would an Igbo man from Onitsha be plotting on how to become the prime minister of Yorubaland right after
before independence. That was why Chief Obafemi Awolowo fought against siting of the capital of Nigeria in Lagos.

All intellectual discourse to properly educate this diabolical folks about the history of Lagos as a colony,as a capital and as a state has fallen on the deaf ears of many of this deluded individuals who hide their expansionist hegemony under the Nigerian identity while spreading historical falsehoods in order to destroy the indigenous right of the Yoruba people in those places.

One of their main point is to tell Yoruba people from other Yoruba speaking cities and towns that they do not have the right to participate in Lagos politics because of the state structures of the fraudulent Nigerian contraption.

A Yoruba man is Yoruba man in any Yoruba spaces and territories across west Africa no Fulani, Igbo, Hausa, Ijaw etc. have the right to tell the Yoruba people what he can do or not do in our spaces, politically, economically and militarily.

Another madness being displayed by this people is to start analysis of of Yorubaland politics by saying "South West, excluding Lagos"? As a patriotic Yoruba citizen you will start asking yourself why any mentally stable individual will utter such rhetoric. Is it possible to say South South excluding Rivers!!! South East excluding Imo !!! North west excluding Kano!!

It is visible to the blind and audible to the deaf why Southern Nigeria republic is impossible and why wholesome southern unity is a mirage. If the Fulanis utter such profanities we will bring out our guns to vilify and crucify them but some Igbos want to come on social media platforms to tell the Yoruba Nation to separate Lagos from the Yoruba future politically and economically? It is the highest form of blasphemy against the indigenous Yoruba people in those places and spaces.

The most important thing to any nationalist is history, Land and power, on these three pillars rest the survival and preservation of their nation. Anybody who continually attacks those pillars directly or indirectly is orchestrating the destruction of the indigenous people.
This is a wake up call to all Yoruba nationalists that the full Yorubanization of our spaces and lands is a must with every means necessary across west Africa.

I am Yoruba first and last. Think Yoruba First. No apologies.

Op whether you like it or not , Lagos was built with federal government money belonging to Nigeria as a capital mega city and state.
Other tribes that came in brought their own businesses , people buoght their personal spaces in form of private properties and estates, so what exactly is your problem ? Did any body force anybody to sell lands ,

Go to some South America cities like in Brasil and you will see yoruba culture flurishing, complete with language and Sango worship.

You better go and rescue your SE Region from those currently burning it to the Ground and into ashes instead of dragging Lagos with SW People

If you dragged Calabar and Port Harcourt with it's owners and it ended in Calamitous disaster for Ojukwu then dragging Lagos is a very foolish idea.


Why did your Fathers flee Lagos for the East during the 1993 Oso abiola Crisis when nobody was pursuing them ?

It was because they knew without any doubt where home was.



Ask any Igbo person in Lagos who was at least 10 years Old in 1993 about the oso abiola Exodus to the East when some were expecting War but God in his infinite Wisdom and Mercy did not permit it.


There were no Igbos left in Lagos except Igbo Women married to Yoruba Husbands

All the others fled to the East when General Babangida annulled. abiola’s Victory leading to the June 12 1993 Election Crisis

Next time you want to deceive yourself by claiming Lagos is not Yorubaland just remember oso abiola of 1993.

An Army of Ekene di Chukwu type buses were departing Lagos Night and day and everyday non stop 24 hours round the Clock for a period of about 2 Weeks while their Yoruba neighbours looked on in complete amusement, astonishment and bewilderment wondering what exactly was chasing Igbos out of Lagos and the SW

Lagos ran out of Salt they bought every bag of Salt they could lay their hands on. and took it back with them to the East because during the Biafran War of 1967-1970 Salt was scarce even more than food and some People didn't taste Salts for almost 2 years

For Complete 6 weeks there were no Igbos left in Lagos .


After 6 Weeks the bravest ones surfaced again and told all their friends and neighbours how hunger had driven them back , the Yorubas welcomed them back with joy and assured them no War was going to be fought over June 12.

Lagos has never been No mans Land. There are early settlers "The Yoruba" unless you kill them off, you will always be a visitor/refugee. Go to Abuja.

The capital then was just 20% of Lagos. The present Lagos is Yoruba to the core. From the Governor to the kings. WE ARE ALL YORUBA. That is why we make your children learn our language in our schools because it is our Kingdom.

At Independence the Capital was less than 5% of today's Lagos ,95% of which was in Awolowo's Western Region

The Dream that made Lagos an Economic Powerhouse was Awolowo's Dream

Awolowo was busy trying to Overtake Europe

It may seem hilarious in today’s Nigeria but that is the Truth

Awolowo built Ikeja including its industrial estates From the Scratch out of a jungle where Elephants, leopards, and Gorillas were still roaming around, into the Capital of the western region

Awolowo was building Modern Cattle Ranches all over the western region with Cattle Imported from Isreal in 1956 !!

Awolowo had big dreams for his People, Singapore and Dubai were too small compared to what Awolowo was aiming for

Mind boggling why they would take such myopic positions against all sensible advise and arguments.

Nnamdi Azikiwe- no referendum clause in the constitution.

General Aguiyi Ironsi- foisted a unitary system through decree 34 of 1966.

Remove these 2 errors and Nigeria would most likely have faired better today because the regions would have been more competitive in their development strides, pursued self sufficiency and definitely be more efficient for their people.

But people move freely in Lagos and other Southwest states and do not feel threatened by thugs, who have been integrated into the society as a stakeholder, and therefore acts as a first responder in the case of any emergency or security threat.

This is not the case in Anambra and other southeast states where innocent people are forced to sit at home by worst thugs (criminals) who murder them, and are even hailed, without remedy. But you are more concerned about Lagos and the Southwest, why?

Every region has its own socially neglected people, but the Southwest including Lagos fairs far better than all other regions as we can all see.

Absolutely no room for comparison!

You are right, most of those noisemakers and big mouthed yorubas don't even have a single property in Lagos.
They are predominantly occupying the slums of Lagos while those they hate are occupying the high brow areas of Lagos.
Lagos does not even belong to the Yorubas, even when the British was in charge of Africa.
They should go and claim their dirty Ibadan and Oshogbo no one give a hoot.

At Independence the Capital was less than 5% of today's Lagos ,95% of which was in Awolowo's Western Region

The Dream that made Lagos an Economic Powerhouse was Awolowo's Dream

Awolowo was busy trying to Overtake Europe

It may seem hilarious in today’s Nigeria but that is the Truth

Awolowo built Ikeja including its industrial estates From the Scratch out of a jungle where Elephants, leopards, and Gorillas were still roaming around, into the Capital of the western region

Awolowo was building Modern Cattle Ranches all over the western region with Cattle Imported from Isreal in 1956 !!

Awolowos western region had Television’ before France !

Awolowo had big dreams for his People, Singapore and Dubai were too small compared to what Awolowo was aiming for
With all humility , Awolowo outperformed the British

The dream that turned lagos into an Economic Powerhouse was Awolowos dream

Awolowo was Jailed for that Dream

I am not Joking
So the FG influence was even lesser and that sadist called babasolution was saying nonsense. Naturally Lagos is blessed and it is more blessed to have fallen in the hands of one of the greatest race in Africa. Without the Federal government's influence, especially OBJs trouble and the congestion brought upon Lagos by poor Igbo refugees, Lagos should be competing with cairo. But we have foreigners every where over stretching the limited resources and with no significant help from the FG despite the fact that we contribute the highest to her National treasury.
