gingerxy, let's assume you are from Mbaise, you yourself have a right to say "This Mbaise is a sh*thole", I as I am not from Mbaise, do not have that right to use the exact words, even in the same context. It's called common sense or common courtesy.

Bàbà Kékeré used the words "No man's land" in a certain context, trust me, the various Nairaland Obidients used those same words in a very different context to him.

You only need to read the other words they typed after or before they typed those three words to see it was "pregnant with meaning". Quite frankly, Obidients using those words are doing so as a form of abuse and insults (something they are admittedly quite good at).

Feel free to go to any European country or the USA and denigrate their country or land in front of their natives, you will quickly realise it is not just Africans that focus on the "petty things".

The thread topic is about protecting indigenes of Lagos, lots of other Tribes live in Lagos, how did it morph into an anti Igbo thing? Maybe if you open a thread with the question of "what bad things are Ibo's doing in Lagos" , you might get an answer.
You should give me your own example the bad things Igbos are doing in lagos. The only time someone has used that word was with respect to how things can be happening to you in lagos and no one bats an eyelid. No not really that lagos doesn't belong to Lagosian or there are no indegeneous lagosian. There's never a prominent person or leader of any other tribe that has ever come out to say lagos is no man's land. It's quite unfortunate that you will say Igbos said this and that while it's just the opinion of whoever that is saying it , and doesn't represent the opinion of Igbos.

Or else if you are ignorant of it albinitio, I know about it long time ago that the statement "Lagos is no man's land" is attributed to Lateef Jakande, a man from Kwara state and is done in supposedly good faith to suggest Lagos is land of opportunity where all can make it, even though I belief the man would have been circumspect in such speech , if he had known that such statement will be misdirected to mean " Lagos doesn't belong to any particular indigenes, unlike other states that if you arrive Lagos this morning you can begin to raise your shoulders in the afternoon claiming you are also the indegenes of the place , and that's is what " a no man's land " mean in direct interpretation and such has been expressed many times , which is wrong!

If they describe your father's land as no man's land, the direct meaning of it and with such cautiousness in people , the result you've been getting in Lagos is what you will get.

Indigenes of a state can be given some quota in state civil service for instance, bursaries, catchment in University admission, Subsidy in education, health services e.t.c

This is Federalism , a state is not just in a name , they have their indegenes and if you call it a no man's land , then people can leave your father's land say Anambra this morning and land in Lagos and also feel entitled and demand for was listed above with immediate effect , what they should enjoy in their state, that is what " a no man's land" mean.

These are some examples, other exist in other areas , it's not everything a state has in mind for his indigenes , that others will be making a noise or lamenting about.

This is different from outright discrimination since non - indigenes will still live in the state and enjoy some benefits, a reminder that indegenes exist in every state and we have state of origin and not state of residence in this country, but Lagos has been cheated, raped and dominated overtime by outsiders making ungrateful comment and tend to forget their origin.

And stop this stupid act of personalizing the issues , am I the one making the plans, is it not issues in the news that is on the table?

" Concentrate on petty things and ignore the important ones " nonsense!
I'm glad you can recall that the statement was attributed to lateef jakande . That's one point to note, You also made mention that we practice federalism which classifies everyone to a particular state of origin before residence right? You also said lagos state indegenes should be given some quota in the civil service and I can boldly say that statement is wrong and doesn't portray the lagos indegenes as being in charge of their polictical space. It's should be the lagos indegenes giving some quota to those within the catchment area maybe every SW state which is right. But here you carefully stated that some quota should be given to Lagos State indegenes, and I ask who is the person and where is the person from that is supposed to give them some quota in their own state? The lagos polictical space which makes the law is filled with other Sw state indegenes in the government house is not occupied by indegineous lagosian. Check the senators , house of reps and even state house of assembly they're not filled with indegeneous lagosians. Now who are those occupying those positions? Those are the people marginaling the indegineous lagosians. Not people that came to Lagos with their business plans rented shops or bought lands and established their business without government grant. You also made reference to what I said in the other post. That the government shouldn't dwell on Petty things and ignore the important thing . I really feel it's important if the look in to the welfare of the people from makoko slum which are historically part of the settlement of indegineous lagosians and other parts too. Give them grants to start their own business, pay them bursary and subsidize education for them and make sure their people take the number one sit in the state , and represent their people at their different senatorial zones.

Very welcome development. Lagos permits too much nonsense that other states won't even tolerate. Yoruba people are saying enough is enough. Anyone that feels one kind about it is free to move to another state.

indigenes tolerate a lot of NONSENSE from other Yorubas from other states to be governors for too long

I have never said Igbo's are doing bad things in Lagos, please focus on what I said rather than what you think I said or want me to say.

I have said Obidients on Nairaland misuse those words "No man's land" and explained why they knowingly do it.

I know all Igbos are not Obidients and I am sure all my posts without exception reflect that so please don't suggest I said anything about Igbo's as a whole.

It is in the Obidient playbook to lash out at everyone, we are expecting a Tsunami of insults when the Judges at the Tribunal have their say whether or not it favours their man. Of course enough Tinubu people are here to give them back wotowoto.

Try not to conflate issues, people here are facing Obidients squarely, not Ibo's.

It is understandable when there is a good reason for doing that, but when you do that just because Obi won Lagos or because of mere propaganda then you should expect the worst from the people, this time it might lead to tribal unrest because your people in other states will bear the consequences. If you guys really know the demage you are causing your fellow Yoruba in other people's state, you won't even go near the thing you are doing now. Believe me even if the governor should come up with a good reason to revoke people's land in this present time, people will till see it as the wickedness you guys have in mind against non indigenes, beside you can't collect one person land and you now decided to spear that of a man from Ogun just because he is a Yoruba man, the fact still remains that a man from Ogun is also a non indigene. You guys just have to be careful with your actions.

You are crying foul when none exist.


There is no law that has been enacted but you are already enumerating on the side effects and target of the fixated law.

However, LASG can and should protect her indigenes for instance, the descendants of Mosan ,Okunola and Ipaja whose ancestral lands were acquired to build Gowon Estate , Shagari Estate and Jakande Estate can be identified and their children placed on Scholarships. The LSPDC in partnership with PPP can redevelop some of these places and give them some blocks after usage for 30years.

I won't be surprise if this places you are talking about are dominated by Yorubas because as of the time those estates were set up the non indigene then we're not so much interested except for non indigene that came from that same south west.

Oga rest.

Whether they are dominated by Yoruba, Togolese or Ebira, does it negate the fact that the indigenes of these towns/villages should not be denied the right to laying claims to their ancestral lands like all other Nigerians?

Does it stop their children from getting LASG scholarships and employment?

Does it stop LASG from sponsoring their descendants abroad to acquire modern skills in AI, ICT, Aviation ,STEM and other areas to be better equipped to compete in the ever changing World?

Canada, USA and Australia have special 'packages' for the indigenous peoples, what is bad if LASG took into the plights of the indigenes of the State?

That is your problem, you are acting as if it is only Lagos such things are happening, what about Bayelsa where the major revenue of the country is coming from, how many things did fg did for them after collecting their land for crude oil drilling. Don't used stupid excuse to forcefully collect land sold out by thesame people your are defending. The other day I went to Epe, for something which I won't disclose, in my present one of the Baale of Epe came to settle a dispute based on him selling large size of a particular land to a person and part of the land he sold entered into another person land so they have to call him to settle it

Jakande or no Jakande, the statement is not as bad as those who have misunderstood it and acting badly, that's apart.

And it's erroneous of you to term someone's statement as wrong when you don't understand the breakdown and nitty-gritty of the point.

When you say it's wrong for Lagos indegenes to be given quota by those who you say have dominated them and it is Lagos indegenes that should be given quota to outsiders, this position is fair but if you want to be realistic, you know you can't just purge out those who you say are dominating the indegenes in Lagos State at once , just like that.

You say those dominating indegenes are in State House of Assembly, government house bla, bla, bla ..... are you saying there are no true Lagos indigenes in these and other positions too?

Let's assume there are very few or no Lagos indigenes in so many positions, this bill or this proposal will bring about change even if it's a gradual one.

It's like moulting in snake where you will have to shed the old skin and the new ones will emerge.

With this policy , Lagos will truly begin to be for Lagos and no more anyhowism in getting political and other offices.

And during the course of this evolution, you and your people who came from the south - east to come sell markets (goods), should always calm down, talk less and generate less controversy because it's a political evolution for indigenes of Lagos and not necessarily against outsiders , let's wait first.

Imo State alone is more developed that any states in southwest accept for Lagos, talkless of Anambra

So you are now satisfied with the development in your region and. there is no need for development again including those dirty places in Aba & co.

Ibadan, Akure, Abeoku e..t.c. are better than your region you wanderers don't want to stay in.

It is more stupid than wrong if you ask me, and even more stupid to think legislation needs to be passed against it.

If a Yoruba person goes to Imo or Katsina and says it's no man's land, which they can indeed say though some level of insanity must be involved, Igbo and Katsina people should watch him claim that so called no man's land for himself and see how far it gets him.

Land belongs to the title holder regardless of origin. But I guess Lagosians must fear. They must have heard the next Oba of Lagos is from Imo or Katsina or somewhere like that, or they'd just laugh at any idiot who says Lagos is no man's land.

It's not a legislation against the mere saying of " Lagos is no man's land" per se, but to legislate /move against the odd indulgence/action/control of outsiders that truly gives the impression that " Lagos is no man's land.

No, its not clear at all. You can not pass a law against people talking nonsense since their talk does not make it so.

You can say Lagos is no man's land as much as you want so long as you pay me your Lagos rent when due, and if you don't pay, the law allows me to evict you from the so called no man's land which you are renting from me since saying Lagos is no man's land does not mean you then get to be the man that owns the land.

It's not a legislation/move against a mere talk of "Lagos is no man's land" alone, but the saying is in their cautiousness , they are pushing more than talk , feeling of entitlement, no more see things as privilege, so reason for a reset button to be pressed and put people where they belong.

1) LASG policy doesn't involve the FG, they aren't asking for more allocations.

2) Bayelsa State is free to implement whatever laws and policies they deem fit to protect their people. The FG already made lots of concession to them e.g 13% Derivatives, NDDC, Ministry of Niger Delta Affairs, Presidential Amnesty Programs, Corporate Social Responbilities of IOC etc

3) The Lands used to build the National Stadium, Gowon Estate,FESTAC, Jakande Estate, National Theatre etc were acquired from the indigenous peoples by Gov't and don't involve you or your tribe, so I don't know why you are wailing over it.

4) The LASG sending her indigenes abroad to acquire further competitive skills or giving them grants to buy shares of companies to drive the State forward doesn't affect you in any negative way.

Clamour does not make a thing so, and the constitution of Nigeria would hopefully not allow states to pass laws that would not be favourable to the anyone, because after you pass laws unfavourable to Igbos, laws unfavourable to Catholics, or Baptists, or Muslims might follow, and laws against light skins people or dark skin people, or people who worship Ogun too.

We'd just accuse those we dislike of the so called crime of clamour, then pass laws to discriminate against them.

It's just a proposal to put indegenes on right pedestal , no noise , other people , various demographies will still reside in Lagos.

What IAM I saying? what are you saying? you were just ranting , bla , bla, bla and I don't think you are in contradictory with me , what I think is there is misunderstanding somewhere,

When I say "non negotiable" I put "no" before the statement, and IAM saying that our unity is not automatic, it's not a must.

That if we are going to be together, there must be things we have to ensure or allow.

For me , do i give a fvck about Nigeria's unity , is it a must, if Nigeria will divide , let it divide now! my wish is if it can come peaceful why not!? Because people are dying avoidably In this contraption called Nigeria.

Unity is not by force ! I know but while we are still together, we must give ourselves sense to an extent , or we truly make it a full blown zoological garden, a zoo where we eat ourselves raw! Survival of the fittest.

You no get Dubai, and I haven't seen any one person who owns Lagos even as it is a Yoruba State what exactly do you think Yorubas should enjoy in Lagos that other tribes shouldn't, just tell me that one thing.

Lagos is in Nigeria and uses Nigeria constitution I don't see where you are going with this. Dubai is a City in UAE and everyone from UAE have the same right as people from Dubai. Have you been to Dubai before? Indians have the highest number of new businesses there.

Yoruba currently and will still get more benefits in Lagos at the expense of Igbo just like Igbo people get more benefits in Anambra or Imo at the expense of Yoruba for example there is no need for unnecessary list .

Where all can do their businesses in the states , but the indigenes or the ethnic groups will get more chance in their respective states civil service , considerations in University admission (catchment area) , Health services, Bursaries e.t.c. infact. they have the soul of the state compare to strangers.

Dubai is a city opening to tourism and investors for benefits obviously.

So they will allow people in, including Nigeria and India you mentioned but they still have restrictions and can adjust if people abuse benefits just like what they did recently against countries, including Nigeria.

There are no lawless cities or countries
( where there is no war ) , a place can't be without those who control it .

Nonsensical nonsense, Lagos is a No man’s land, they want to steal Portuguese Annex


Lagos is Yoruba land, Portuguese shi**t, so Christopher Columbus did not meet red Indians in United States?
"Lagos is no man's land" is a stupid utterance, a stupid position.

Mumu there is no host community.Ogun and Osun visitors insulted a son of the soil like GRV

Get your thinking right, there are host communities , one isolate for political reason like GRV should not make you lose your reasoning.

Lagos indigenes in APC are also part of those who worked against him.

So it's politics, don't pretend it's not.
