Rants of ants!

That moment when the sleepy lion wakes to clear his throat, the barking dog begins to run for his dear life. 
That awkward moment when shouting mouth jams moving action, mouth becomes dumb. That time is here with us...

Now that you are sure its an ordinary rant, why not step out to show the stuff you are made of .
I saw how your folks were running away from one small masquerade yesterday, is this how you guys want to show us the so called " pepper? ".

the question to ask is.....what makes Lagos, Lagos?

It is the land, ILE OGERE A'FOKO Y'ERI ALAPO IKA.
Yes the land, the land of prosperity, the land that has Midas touch, anything it touches turn to gold.
The land that Oduduwa already foresaw before sending out Olofin from Ile Ife to go and " locate, occupy and rule over ". I DEY LAUGH O.

zendy:
[b] I want to remind people about something that will be very important in the event of the creation of Biafra. Embossed in front of every Nigerian passport (and any west-African passport) is the acronym "ECOWAS". What this is trying to tell anyone with this on their passport is that they are are entitled to travel, live and settle anywhere in the West-African sub-region without need for any sort of visa. This same sort of system applies in Europe under the "EU" and all member nation can travel at will to each other's countries with no travel restrictions. It is most likely that Biafra,a west African nation, will become a member of "ECOWAS" and any Igbo man will be able to travel and live anywhere in Nigeria without any visa. In the event that the Nigerian Government is crazy enough to pull out of ECOWAS because it wants to Igbos to go, it will also have to ask all ECOWAS citizens living in Nigeria to also go. The mass exodus of not only Igbos but Biafrans and west Africans and the repartriation of their investments will lead to the decimation of the Lagos economy. What makes Lagos s great place is not its sea-port but it's population. Take away that population and Lagos will just be a "coastal town" as it was in the 30's and 40's before the massive influx of people from other regions. Yorubas did not make Lagos what it is, Lagos is the result of the joint effort of everybody. With the Igbo population of Lagos now getting to 50% or half Lagos, take the Igbos out of Lagos and there is no Lagos. Frankly, I want my people,the Igbos, out of Lagos and back home with their investments so we can build the future Biafra. Onitsha, Nnewi or Aba can be bigger than Lagos in a few years if we do this [/b]

Stop deluding yourself Lagos is a gateway to prosperity, Lagos is like a gold mine were people go to seek fortune.
If Igbos move out today, other Nigerians and foreigners will move in. OJO NI WA A O BA ENIKAN SE OTA, ENI EJI RI L'EJI N'PA.
When the federal government moved to Abuja with all their billions it did not affect Lagos negatively, so how can Igbos moving out of Lagos cripple Lagos.
The success of Lagos does not depend on anybody but the owners of Lagos and their ability to mix freely with everybody.
And yes Aba can be bigger than Lagos provided your leaders share your dreams, but at the moment Lagos is the MAGIC WORD.
As for the ECOWAS passport i trust my people to fix the bugs in it, and why would any Igbo want to return to live anywhere in Nigeria after all Nigeria is zoo where Igbos pulled out from.

Senator Enyinnaya Abaribe (PDP Abia South), in his review of budgets, especially in the immediate past administration of Dr. Goodluck Jonathan, highlighted huge inconsistencies in budgetary processes and duplication of subheads which accounted for poor implementation.


Are you drunk? Can't you see he is a pdp senator?

...Wailing wailer!

He is mad.

Find out the origin and meaning of this saying

I like your boldness but you know what, enu o se.
When you guys are through making noise on radio Biafra, bring your war into Yoruba land, then you will know that Christianity and Islam cannot stop Yoruba's from doing what makes them an empire and not a clan.

BuddahMonk:
Why didn't they fight the Fulanis that took Ilorin ?

It was a punishment for Afonja and his children for his rebellion and for bringing Alafin Aole's curse on Yoruba people, which led to a civil war in Yoruba land in which our people were sold as slaves to foreign lands, or have you not heard how "Balogun Latosha and his boys" dealt ruthlessly with the Fulanis at Oshogbo and pursued them back to Ilorin.
Latosha was an ordinary balogun of Ibadan he is not even an Are onakakanfo but he was that tough, he even mark ground for them not to step foot into Otte and Ikirun which are like boarder towns to Yoruba land or else he will mobilize a coalition of Yoruba army from all over Oyo empire to pursue them further up north.
It was Latosha who single handedly foiled Fulani ambition of dipping the Quran into the atlantic ocean 'cause during this period there was a constitutional crises in Oyo empire after the death of Alafin Aole as the position of Alafin had been weakened, Latosha just took it upon himself to stop the Fulani at that time, we have so many that are even stronger and tougher than Latosha or have you not heard of " ogedemgbe agbogun gboro " Ikurunmi " Onikoyi " Agoro eru iku " and many more, all these people are terrible people who would rather sacrifice their families than loose a war.
So stop hoping to overrun Yoruba land because you dont even know who the Yorubas are . Abeg go find Yoruba history make you read o, so that you guys don't end up in the belly of a tiger you are hoping to ride.

pazienza:
Political power comes from physical
occupation: not historical rights, not title
deeds, not moral rights - only occupation.
Those people who occupy a territory
determine the nature of the society in that
region. - Arthur Kemp.

The way I see it, Yorubas are in a lose-lose situation, whether Biafra emerges or not.

If Nigeria persists, Igbo numbers will continue growing in Lagos until the critical threshold is breached and all hell will be let loose, If Biafra secedes, Yorubas faces 're colonization by the fulanis.

Don't even think about it, ordinary oro cult is enough to make you guys flee without your bags, i dey laugh o .
Hope you are not expecting Yoruba to engage you guys in any stupid wrestling match, because you will definitely see fire but you'll never know where its coming from, ordinary sand and needles will fix you guys for good, yeye dey smell.

Kaduna, Kano and Lagos too.

Sane mind i hope they will not call him mumu for giving them this wonderful advice.

Comparing death with sleep, continue.

My people go juba bishop, juba imam, juba pope dem, Fela don talk am say this people are problems.
I can't imagine any high priest of a traditional deity holding briefs for thieves talkless of a christian priest, Olorun a ri ejo da.
As for those shouting " smear campaign ", when Father Mbaka was shouting " from goodluck to badluck under the inspiration of the holy spirit" he was called all sort of derogatory names, the man has since been justified.
Father Mathew Hassan Kukah, Jehovah is watching you in 3D, continue with your Hippocratic mission i know God is not mocked, the God that rubbished Jonathan Goodluck and his deceit will make himself known to you.

Even their king is another omo Oduduwa, or have you not heard of '' oba Akran '' before?.

So iroko don ban okada? make dem go Ekiti na, after all PDP don promise okada people better life.

The truth is igbos are not in unity yet.They can't even marry themselves without stereotype.An Igbo man cheats his follow igbo without conciense . Even if Biafra stands anambara,Imo,Abia will start fighting for power .

An Igbo man is a natural capitalist, he never wants anything for free and he never offers any goods or service for free. An Igbo man will be the last person to steal a piece of land, he will rather pay a price for the thing he wants and a fair price too. The indigenous people of Lagos have nothing to fear from the Igboman. Rather his fear should be channeled to those who pretend to be their Yoruba brothers by day and orchestrate ways of taking over their land at night.

Can you believe that Tinubu, an Osun man is now the king maker of Lagos, he even influences who becomes the Oba of Lagos. Chai!!! What an insult to Lagos ancestors!! I don't know if you have met the true indigenous Lagosians before, man you should visit Badagry, somewhere under the bridge where they like to gather in sunny afternoons to drink palmwine. You would just love them for their peaceful nature, civility and hospitality.

I cannot say the same for these migrants. They are just so annoying, loud and lack basic manners. They actually have messed up the once peaceful Lagos state i grew up knowing, they brought Agbero, road side markets and other insanity you see around Lagos, they are also very dirty in nature. My Lagosian friends are tired of them but they can't do anything because they are very few.

Igbos will do everything they can to help send these Ogbomosho dwellers back to their evil forests and cursed lands. Why are they running away from their ancestral lands though? The worse is that they never return or plan to return someday.

Its like Ogbomoso people are dealing ruthlessly with so you can't say anything without metioning Ogbomoso.
Anyway my father is from Ogbomoso and your people are also in Ogbomoso constituting themselves into nuisance as you're presently doing in Lagos.
Don't say you're not warned, every Ogbomoso person is a potential black scorpion so tell your folks in Ogbomoso to be careful .

Did the Indigenous Yorubas of Lagos make you their spokesperson or what??
loool

Benin's former name was Igodomigodo before the Yorubas changed it to Ile Ibini... and later Benin
We Conquered it.....

You want to run a backyard game on Lagos ownership via Benin, I will run that same game on you on the ownership of Benin itself via Yoruba.

It was actually '' Ile ibinu '' the land of anger, and later to Ile ibini, some other names are Ile Ado now Edo.
If you get to Ile- Ife today, you will see the graveyards of ancient Obas of Benin, that place is called " orun oba Ado " meaning the " heaven of obas of Ado ".
The Obas of benin were also omo Oduduwa and so must be return to their roots when they die hence the burial at " orun oba Ado " in Ile-Ife..

anulaxad:
Nonsense, My grandma is 76 and was born in Lagos in the 1930's and we are Yoruba.

Please stop your foolish nonsense here, do not go any further in causing unnecessary trouble. Yorubas have lived in Lagos for hundreds of years.

Why do you waste your time answering this type of OP, my mother's maternal great grand father was Balogun Agoro, he was nicknamed ERU IKU for his exploits at wars, he was king Kosoko's defence cheif.
King Kosoko was the Lagos king exiled to EPE by the British colonial administrators over slave route, my father is not from Lagos but because of my mother i can also claim Lagos if i so desire.
And my mothers great grand fathers are combination of Olotto and Ojora, you will never hear any one of these people making useless noise anywhere in Lagos, omo eko mo ara won OP tell us who your forefathers are so that someone like me can begin to take you serious.

IgboGoat:
I believe an Igbo man will make a better leader for this country when compared with their Yoruba and Hausa Fulani counterpart.

An Igbo man attaining such position will be purely on merit and there will be less external influence and distractions. Also owing to the natural entrepreneurial and Management skills that God blessed the Igbos with (which is lacking to an extent in other groups), the Igbo man will be able to take calculated risks and wont be afraid of any person or group of persons when making decisions that will move the nation forward.

Before the civil war when the Igbos were virtually in charge of almost all sectors in the Nigeria, with the likes of Kenneth Dike a renowned educationist as the first indigenous VC of a Nigerian University, and other prominent Igbo in the helms of affairs of the public institutions. Nigeria was seen as the next best thing to happen to the world.

After the war, Awo with his nepotistic tendencies and his Northern cohort eventually turned this Nation to almost a curse to humanity. Now anywhere in the world where there are Nigerians Bad news, Yorubas specializing in fraud and human rituals, Igbos in drugs and Hausas in Terrorrism.

But all this can change if an Igbo man can be given a chance to pilot the affairs of this country. God himself will be happy about it and those changes we are craving for will effortlessly materialize.

I am not writing this for you to start criticizing, I want you to just read, reason and get some brain because Nigeria's solution lies in the hands of an Igbo Man.

Gbam.....

I would have love to say something but your ID is already a very good answer.
Igbo goat.

carnegiefan:
If the table were to be turned, Yoruba wouldn't teach their "rivals" anything that empowers them. FACT.
But knowing the Igbo, they would not hesitate to take anyone under apprentiship provided the person is HONEST, DISCIPLINED, LOYAL, and DEDICATED.
Those are the only secrets to the Igbo-style "trading".
I like the Fayose guy because he has been the only voice of reason from Yorubaland these days. But let no one think that Yoruba can overnight change to acquire those traits that make Igbo succeed in "trading".
I wish them luck though...

Skills?, no kill me with laughter abeg, like forcing customer to buy what dey don't like and beating the customer up for saying no?.
Or fufu blackberries, laptops and all sort of vices the only thing anyone can learn from you guys is how to make money by any means possible which is always not pleasing to the ears.
Eye don open " una jigg " is out, some of your " highly skilled and enterprising business " men were recently apprehended in armed robbery operation at Alaba international market, a market were one must sleep besides the container at night or else the container will be empty before morning, thieves everywhere, abeg make i hear word jor.

truefact:
I know you lot are suffercated and diabolical liars, but coward yorubas did not shut down biafra....Biafra is shut down by combined efforts of the Hausa-Fulani and the western world....

If yorubas shut down biafra, they should have been the owners of Nigeria instead of the Hausa-Fulani. ..

If yorubas shut down biafra, coward awolowo would automatically become a president
If yorubas shut down biafra, abacha won't have dared to kill the greatest son of odua and his wife, MKO

If yorubas shut down biafra, diya won't have cried before Hausa-Fulani junior officer

Try harder Benjamin black scopion, Olusegun Obasanjo and the GREAT AWOLOWO are not Hausa - Fulani.

Look like trying to bury the witness.

phlemzy:
A prayer of uninterrupted Change!!! A prayer of reduced looting,functional refineries, increasing power generation, etc. I feel your love for Naija. May we never go back to the dark days of those big-bellied million looting Chieftains of the People Deceiving Party.

Never again.

egobetatoday:
buhari will not be in power for ever. Every sane person should know that power is transient. AIT didnt have problem until they published something againt Apc. Apc is in power now hence the sudden 'headache'. lol

Thanks for reminding me that Buhari or should i say Tinubu robbed Dogperson and this is why he can't pay his staffs salary.
Dogperson should have remember that power is transient when he was collecting billions of naira to throw darts or should i say dirt at Buhari and Tinubu, and for Gods sake is Tinubu a presidential candidate? why should DAAR go to such an extent? did i just hear you say money?.
I want to see this case in court so that fools like Dogperson can learn that there is a limit to how far we can take others for grated, in his warped mind he didn't believe its possible for a sitting president to be voted out by Nigerians, so he thought he will get away with all the nonsense he did to GMB and Tinubu because he is sure PDP will not loose the election.
I AM A BELIEVER, I AM HOLDING ON TO THE WORD OF GOD THAT ALL THOSE WHO CONTRIBUTED IN ONE WAY OR THE OTHER TO MAKE THIS COUNTRY THE GRAVEYARD OF ORDINARY CITIZEN SHALL NOT GO UNPUNISHED, THEY HAVE SWALLOW RICHES, GOD SHALL CAST IT OUT OF THEIR BELLY " JOB 20:4-29 ".

Abugab:
It baffles me how Kukah has suddenly soft pedaled on the war against corruption knowing his vocal nature against it in the past.
So we should just let about $50 billion of corruptly stolen monies go like that? Report has it that with this amount those corrupt guys will actually be the 11th richest country in Africa if they were a country.
I beg make Father Kukah & Co cool down and let PMB do the needful

Yes now, so that we can make heaven how can we call ourselves christian when we double speak like this, father Mathew Hassan Kukah God is watching you in 3D.

afolwalex20:
So nothing is produced in kwara state

Grains and fruits are also produce in Kwara state.
They also have a place that reminds me of the Biblical Sodom and Gomorrah, that could be a great source of revenue through tourism, i am talking about a town named " Esie " visit the national museum of Esie to see wonder.

kaypound:
lol....AIT still has a case in court pending for slander against Tinubu. If they lose that case and they are asked to pay a fine inwhich tunibu is suing them for 150billion....na total die be that.

I am seriously waiting for the commencement of this case, Dogperson i hope those who gave this dirty job to do will be on standby to save your sorry butt.

Abeg make this guys get patent right for this invention, i don't want to hear about how Awolowo used indigenization policy to steal this invention for some Yoruba boys.
