Useless people. They should come to Alimosho where nobody says good of sanwoolu and spew that trash. Expect another shock, come Saturday. Ibos didn't shock tinubu in Alimosho, we did.

Lol. People come online for cheap publicity. Labor party and her Zombidients Igbos started all these when they threatened to vote massively against APC in Lagos. My advice for Lagos govt is to start setting boundaries for non Yorubas. What they are trying in Lagos, no one will try it in their state. On Saturday we will know how far.

Seriously, what do you people really want the Igbo man to do for you? When he talks about Biafra you will be the first person to oppose him. When he talks about one Nigeria you will denigrate him and resort to tribal bigotry. He comes to Lagos and hustle like his other brothers who had gone to the North or even South to make money. He buys your land, builds estates, markets and malls and other chains of businesses and pay tax to enrich your government but what they get in return is threat in every electioneering season.

You just want them to keep working and paying huge taxes to your government but you don't want them to come close to the position of leadership? You guys are wicked souls. Yes, there are Igbos that are boastful, but will you use because of the few uncouth ones to crucify the rest?

Listen, there is nothing you guys can do about this. Lagos have come of age. It is only the foolish Yorubas that will listen to you. And let me tell you the truth, we have been so mixed up together that we can not fight each other. Whatever you are doing is just gragra.

Listen, Lagos is going liberal leaving you conservatives behind. It is not only Igbos and Yorubas that are in Lagos. Every other tribe is represented here. If Lagos was developed by all then Lagos belongs to all.

Before now, I know that no matter how tribalistic you guys choose to be, a time must certainly come when Lagos will become a Lagos for all. But I never knew it will come so soon. We are not saying that the State is a South Eastern State or an Igbo State. But we want it to be for all even if it originally belongs to the Yorubas because the State has enjoyed so much from all.

The only thing that can change what is about to happen is unless Nigeria disintegrates. But as long as Nigeria remains one, a time must come when an Igbo man will become the governor of Lagos. A time must come when an hausa man will govern in Enugu. And to be honest, I might be that person o. Change is constant. Rishi Sunak is an Indian but presently the Prime Minister of UK. Who would have thought about that 50 years ago.

What we have been craving for is a moderate and a liberal Yoruba man to set the pace for a national integration in Lagos.

A new tribe will soon be born in Lagos called UNITY. And there is nothing your bigotted minds can do about it.

If you want Nigeria to be one then it must be one to the fullest. The only way that Nigeria can remain indissoluble is when we mix up. There should be national orientation for intermarriage and national integration. Listen, I am not mixing my words. If you fought to keep Nigeria as one then you must make Nigeria to be one indeed.

APC Reconstructing Lagos Guber Election As "War" Between Igbo & Yoruba - Soyombo

Nigerian investigative journalist, Fisayo Soyombo has stated that the ruling party (APC) are trying so hard to reconstruct Saturday’s Lagos governorship election as a “war” between the Igbo and Yoruba, IGBERETV reports.

To support his statement, he shared screenshots from a WhatsApp group ‘BAT RESPONSE SQUAD’. His tweets read;



He further stated;

Nigeria must be one whether you like it or not! Nigeria is one. Obidients are one. This is not a utopia, soon, that which seems impossible will become possible. I am fighting for my children whose mother might be from the Yoruba extraction.

Like I said, the only thing that can change what is coming is disintegration. But as long as Nigeria continually remains one we must indeed behave and act like one.

Dear YORUBA, if you think Igbo love you... Tell them to make Yoruba Local government chairman in Anambra.



The bolded is a typical crap that flows from the stream of thought of a tribally Yoruba punk without homestead. Did the commonwealth of Nigeria use to develop Anambra State as did Lagos State? It very ignorant not to think very structurally. Lagos State was the capital of Nigeria and commonwealth was poured into it with reckless alacrity.

Although I have made up my mind not to comment on the Election of the 25th of February again but I will make an exception today.
Soyombo the real indigenes of Lagos State are very very very angry with the boastful, immature and uncouth language the Obidients have been pouring all over the media( online and offline).
I was born in Lagos,had my primary and secondary education in Lagos and went to government school with the real indigenes of Lagos growing up.
My secondary school education in Lagos State was in a boarding house in a far flung location,where having an ibo name automatically disqualified you from getting admission into the school.
I was admitted because I had both ibo and Yoruba names.
The Crux of my story is I'm in WhatsApp groups with my primary and secondary school friends and the feedback I get everyday from the group is disheartening.
The indigenes of Lagos are very very angry with the loud uncouth noise of the Obidients especially those from ibo extraction.
There's anger from imota to isale eko,from badagry to Epe,the people are seething with rage,even the educated ones are unleashing beastly articles about the occupation that's happening on their Homeland.
The admin of my WhatsApp groups have deleted many inflammatory post in our groups to calm down nerves.
Soyombo should know the mood of the real indigenes of Lagos is that of rage and anger to what they see as a hostile take over of their land.
I pray Sanwo-olu wins with a landslide on Saturday,that's the only thing that can assuage the feeling of anger among those I have talked to.
I will play my part by voting APC from top to bottom on Saturday.
It's an error to keep calling Lagos a no man's land,there are people who call Lagos their state of origin,you must respect the feelings of these real owners of Lagos
God bless Nigeria

I think Sanwo-Olu’s track record is enough to overcome the opposition, and I hope he wins because he’s good for Lagos…

Nonetheless, the sort of CRUDE AND PRIMITIVE XENOPHOBIA in the highlighted above is DISGUSTING…
If any Nigerian (including Ibos) cannot “brag” ANYWHERE in Nigeria, why exactly do we have supposedly ‘One Nigeria’?!

Btw, it’s said “birds of the same feather flock together” and “people are known by the company they keep”…
Accordingly, it’s not good enough merely to attribute such PRIMITIVITY to “groups” you belong to. CONDEMN THEM AND/OR LEAVE!

PS: Nigerians always condemn “xenophobia” (and “racism”) in South Africa and elsewhere…
And yet time and again, Nigerians turn out to be some of the WORST xenophobes/tribalists/racists alive. SMDH

There's no thugs on your state, right? This is Lagos, it is the centre of excellence we will not hand it over to a learner or mediocre. We have a custom of learning and mentoring. We do not subscribe to experiment. Call this a war. Call us urchins. Just so, you know there was an affront the day you call "Lagos no man's land". The owners are reclaiming their land. Ok?

If you live in Lagos and you are from Igbo extraction, just make sure you don't brake any laws because I see Igbos being targeted after this election.. This election has caused serious tribal division.

My question is why are Ibos so OBSESS with Yoruba state politics? There are millions of Ibos in Kano but you never see that Ibo obsession with who governs Kano. They know that the Muslims in Kano will kill them but Yorubas are accomodating. I hope a time will not come when Yorubas turn violent. Operation wet tie will look like a child's play.

Ibo and their obsession with Yoruba state politics. You never see Okoros obsess with who the governor of Kano is (even though there are millions of Okoros in Kano). I think Yorubas have allowed you guys too much in their territory. Because you know in Kano if you do anyhow they will massacre. So, basically you're telling Yorubas to follow the path of Kano. Be careful what you wish for. E never happen b4 no mean say e no go happen.
