Many Yoruba, Ijaw, Bini, Calabar, Rivers, and Akwa ibom people were not allowed to vote because they looked like igbo.

Once you look fresh, clean, and wealthy, they will say you are an Igbo.

But if you look unkempt, they will agree that you are a Yoruba. What kind of mentality is that?

It's a false statement. Yorubas aren't dirty and no one is identifying people with looks.
Election has come and gone. Let everyone rest.

The election has exposed a lot.
The issue of being accommodating, hospitable, and most educated is gone forever. We can now have rest. We should make sure Seaports and Airport in Rivers, Akwaibom, Cross River and Delta are revamped and put into use.
SS and SE governors should form an economic pact, so in the next 10 years, divestment will follow as Millions of IGBOS relocate to SE and SS.

Shut up! I witnessed it . No Igbo person voted in the whole Somolu LGA. Even Yorubas with light skin were disenfranchised. Eediots!

I won't support thuggery.
Did every Yoruba in Lagos do the tribalism?
What about what others did, especially those that appeared to be of Igbo origin. The reports has been mostly one sided.
