Don't you get tired of this tribal e-war?

At some point it must get boring, right?

This is not for tribal e-war.

This is meant to educate people.

What's the correlation between Yoruba and lazy ass African Americans?

Lagos and Yorubaland flourished in different businesses way before the first Igbo man left the forest - and when you leave, we'll continue with our commerce. We don't need you guys and your fake stuffs, and you can take take your rubbish nollywood with you as well. Yorubas started theatre and home videos in Nigeria - andeven the few decent nollywood films which comes out from time to time are produced and directed by Yoruba people.

Lagos is too overcrowded any ways - take your businesses to your erosion ridden red land - we don't need you guys.

I'm sick and tired of you arrogant people.

I still find it amazing to believe that just a few days ago you were the person claiming for an end to e-ethnocentrism and a 'union of the black race'.

Anyway... there's some sense in what the op is saying if you choose to analyze it from a purely economic perspective. Igbo people form the majority of Lagos' (and Nigeria's) business class. Driving out the Igbo people from any city is like driving out a taxable income base and commerce. This applies not only to the Igbo but also to any people (or persons) that stimulate commercial activity and economic growth.

Now look at it from a fresh perspective: imagine all of a certain city's Hausa traders were expelled. How would that negatively affect that city's (or region's) local economy? Well first of all, the price of meat would skyrocket making previously cheap things like goats unaccessable to the average person. Secondly, gold prices would soar, and this would probably negatively effect the city's international commerce (to some extent) since the Hausa are renown currency converters.

I hope you see what I'm getting at. The op's argument can apply to basically any other group as well.

Shymex,

must to always rise to the bait? This whole tribal tirade is getting old. Rather than engage mindless bigots in their jealousy, why don#t we create threads to discuss how to move our region forward and forget about no gooders leaving them to dwell in self pity?

The fact is that if ibos truly wanted to leave, they would have long done so and not continually move into the Yoruba region in their droves daily.

Leave these tribal wars and lets concentrate where it matters. This time in our history is crucial and our generation have the opportunity too make Yorubaland great once again, that, should be our primary focus and not showing how big our co.ck is.

Desola: Shymex,

You need to check my profile, and see I'm from Lagos.Lagos is home town to me, and I can't let silly people run their mouth because we allowed them to settle there. I don't care how you take it, but we the REAL LAGOSIANS have had enough - and if other people don't like Lagos the way it is, they need to leave and return their home state. Lagos was booming before they came, and will continue to boom when they leave. I want the old Lagos my pops used to tell me about - not the overpriced slum it has become. The whole damn city is overcrowded and people are still coming there in their millions. If you don't like our hospitality - return to your home state, period.

My comment has nothing to do tribalism nor being a tribalist - Lagos is home to me.

I am equally a daughter of the soil through and through but it gets to a point where you have to see people for who they truly are. All the nl ibo bigots do is just to get you riled to respond to useless threads. You need to see that and move past the anger. Our prerogative is to get Lagos great again and it requires strategy. Rather than exchanging words with them, why not come together to find a lasting solution?

These ibo losers on NL and elsewhere have very low self esteem and are very insecure, this is why they are always crying, comparing and playing victim, they are also attention who-res and this is why instead of taking them seriously, I mock and make fun of them. Sometimes I even feel sorry for them.

^you talk about self esteem where else you jump from one thread to another trying
to get their attention.
Why not correct yourself first before pointing to some millions people
