Dede1: I mean, Babangida made Abuja the FCT, Asokoro people are part of Nupe ethnicity thus if Babangida can see it happen and relocate the indigenes, then it is easier for people to work on the land without hassle since he knew the consequences. Have I made myself clear Agbaya dede |

Very true. Nobody can take it from them. Credits should be given to whom it's due. The Yoruba miscreants on NL like dayokanu are not the face of the Yoruba people. Yorubas are very accommodating. 1 Like |

alj harem: If I should follow your misguided logic, it is correct to argue Yoruba peeps were easy to bully since the British made Lagos capital of Nigeria and handed the leadership to northern political elites who deliberately held the position of ministry of capital territory till the capital was moved from Lagos to Abuju, olodo. |

Abagworo, because you see Igbos in Ibadan and co does not mean they are many number-wise. In London, you see blacks everywhere but we are actually a minority (1.5% of the population);yet we are so easily noticeable, why? Its because most of the people walking about the streets (don't have a car) or working in sainsbury and co, hence, they are the first people you'll interact with or likely to see. This is not to denigrate the Igbos but most of the "chemist", students and "spare part sellers" in those states are Igbos and since you are more likely to come in contact with them more often, it seems as if they are populous but that might not be the case. Its not just Igbos but ALL ethnic groups. 3 Likes |

lagcity: Honestly, Yoruba worldview and philosophy is simply amazing. Yorubas see life in a very simple way and just try to enjoy it as much as possible without creating divisions and making a fuss about everything. That's why we don't have caste system like Osu in Yorubaland! It is just too much headache for us. We are very comfortable with differences, be it in religion or whatever. Hausas and Igbos are the biggest troublemakers we have in Nigeria because they just can't live without drama in their lives. Hausa man will bring his religious drama while Igbo will bring his paranoia and stroke-my-ego drama. If you live in an apartment with Hausa man, you have to tiptoe around the house because if you accidentally step on his Quran, he will shout and call his brothers to come and slaughter you. If you live with an Igbo, you have to always stroke his ego and tell him he's the best thing since bread. You can't be blunt so that he won't have an emotional meltdown and whine about things he brought on himself. Too much sensitivity. Always REMEMBER to use the magic phrase "World class". For EX, Hey Mr Okoro, you have a world-class walking stick! and your village is also world class !If you live with a Yoruba man, you can just BE YOURSELF!u said it all my friend... Am from edo and am alway proud and will everly be proud to be associated with yoruba people... They are simply wonderful... Oduduwa agbewa o 2 Likes |

alj harem: Your illogicality is beyond moronic. If Asokoro peeps became accommodating because they were/can be easily bullied regardless their territory was chosen as the seat of Nigerian government, the same goes to Yoruba. However, if Asokoro peeps are accommodating due to sheer magnanimity, Yoruba peeps are too, olodo omo jigbiti. |

Dede1: aru o naya gi ? Oga Dede can you not comprehend Yes ofcourse Asokoro people are accommodating as well moreover it was their son Babangida that wanted it. With the Yorubas it is a different case entirely same with Jos indigenes, it was forced on them. |

For the upteenth time, i will remind Yorubas that what lagos is today has nothing to do with the Yorubas. Yorubas had no say and still have no say in who lives in Lagos. They did not offer any accommodation, the accommodation was taken. First by the British and later by various military regimes before they decided to move the seat of govt to Abuja. FYI Lagos forms the biggest obstacle to Nigeria splitting up today. 1 Like |

I don't know why those who hate Yoruba so much, are the same people who can't live without them... Yoruba are no accommodating; yet you live in your millions in their part of the country... Yoruba are dirty, yet you have substituted your culture with theirs.... Yoruba are cowards, yet you blame them for the ill-fated civil war.. Ibadan is a big village, yet your people live there in their millions... Lagos is a big slum, yet when they showed "Welcome to Lagos", most of the slum dwellers there were not even Yoruba. And you're always quick to let people know you make up a large chunk of people living in Lagos.. I rate Yoruba people a lot, you guys are the 'bestest'. 2 Likes |

People forget every country in the world, which is made up different indigenous people is territorial... As it is in Nigeria; that's the same way it's around the world... I can cite examples in all the developed countries around the world... Even China, India, and Russia are not left out of the party... That's the way the world is, humans are naturally territorial.. I know the indigenous people in Abuja will definitely start claiming Abuja in years to come... Even in America, the native indians, and cherokee have more rights than the average American citizen.. Heck, they even have their own passport. |
