I just want to know the reason for the silence and inaction from the President of the Federal Republic of Nigeria, as well as the Governor of the Central Bank of Nigeria.

Firstly, Small scale businesses are folding up due to lack of patronage as a result of scarcity of cash to patronise thier business,

Secondly, productivity is getting low in both public and private companies because staff cannot come to work because of lack of cash to pay for transportation fares.

Farmers are loosing out too and are hesitant to go to farms because no one patronises them, because of lack of cash, as many of them don't have the bank accounts and internet facilities to empower them in cashless transaction

Many people are dying because of hunger and inability to meet their pressing needs as a result of unavailability of cash and poor banking solutions

In the face of all these and many more, the Supreme Court gave a judgement, yet the President and the his CBN governor are not bothered about all these? Is the devil in charge of Nigeria now?

The Oba of Lagos, Oba Rilwan Akiolu, has claimed that Lagos State is not part of Yoruba land.

Akiolu’s statement is coming barely a week after he publicly humiliated the Ooni of Ife, Oba Adeyeye Ogunwusi at an event.

In a statement from Akiolu’s palace, the monarch traced the historical background of the state and why it should not be regarded as part of Yoruba land.

The statement reads: “Coming from the palace, with what I was told by my late paternal grandmother who is a descendant of Oba Ovonramwen Nogbaisi and also reading from factual Historical books, let me share this Knowledge with you all on Eko/Lagos.

“Modern day Lagos was founded by Prince Ado, the son of the Oba of Benin, Prince Ado was the first Oba of Lagos, the son of the Bini King, Prince Ado, named the town Eko until the Portuguese explorer Ruy de Segueira changed the Maritime town to Lagos, which at that time from 1942 was Portuguese expedition center down the African Coast.

“It was a major centre of the slave trade until 1851. Lagos was annexed by Britain via the Lagos treaty of cession in 1861, ending the consular period and starting the British Colonial Period. The remainder of modern day Nigeria was seized in 1886 when the Colony and Protectorate of Nigeria was established in 1914 Lagos was declared its capital due to the struggle of the Bini King.

“Lagos experienced growth prior to the British Colonial rule and even more rapid growth during the Colonial rule throughout the 1960s, 70s, continued through the 80s and 90s till date. Thanks to the Awori’s, Bini’s, Yoruba’s, migrants across the nation and world at large, as no particular group of people can take the glory alone.

“Lagos is made up of Lagoons and creeks. The Lagos lagoon, Lagos Harbour, five cowne creeks, Ebute-Metta creeks, Porto-Novo creeks, New canal, Badagry creeks, Kuramo waters and Light house creeks.

“The Awori’s and Bini’s are known to be the first settlers of the Eko land. The Awori’s are speakers of a distinct dialect close to that of the Yoruba language with a rich Bini mixture. Traditionally, Awori’s were found in Ile-Ife, they were known to be the Bini’s who followed their self-exiled Prince, the first son of the Ogiso (now called Oba) of Benin Kingdom, whose step-mother was after his head.

“The exiled Benin Prince Izoduwa known to the Yorubas as Ooduwa (Oduduwa) was made ruler of the Ife people due to his powers and followers from the Great Benin-Kingdom.

“Izoduwa (Ooduwa) was made the first King of Ile-Ife in 1230 AD. His followers from his father’s Kingdom in Benin are the today’s Awori people who settled in Eko now called Lagos.

“In the 1300, the King of Benin-Empire heard from one of his traders who was a settler in Eko on how the Bini’s were treated by the Awori’s who lived in their area. Upon hearing this, the King of Benin commanded the assembling of a war expedition, led by his son, Prince Ado, which headed the settlement of the Awori’s and demanded explanation.

“On arriving Eko, Prince Ado and his Army were more than received. The Aworis asked the Bini Prince to stay and become their leader. Ado agreed on the condition that they surrender their sovereignty to the Oba of Benin, to which the people agreed. Hearing this, the King of Benin gave his permission for Prince Ado and the expedition to remain in Eko.

“The Oba of Benin sent some of his chiefs including the Eletu, Odibo, Obanikoro and others to assist his son, Oba Ado in the running of Eko.

“From the crowing of Prince Ado as the first Oba of Lagos (then called Eko), Lagos served as a major center for slave trade from which the Aworis, the Oba of Benin and his son the Oba of Lagos and all the children/descendants who took over as his successors for over four centuries supported the trade.

“The Oba of Benin was the head of the Benin Empire which are the present day Western, Southern and Eastern modern day Nigeria. The King never obliged anyone to speak the Bini language as he believed everyone was entitled to their own choice of language.

“The name Eko was given to it by the first king of Lagos, Oba Ado, the young and vibrant Prince from Benin. Eko was the land now known as Lagos Island, where the king palace was built.

“The palace is called Idugaran meaning “palace built on pepper farm” Oba Ado and the warriors from Benin together with the early Bini’s settlers in Eko and the Awori people settled in the southern part of Eko called “Isale Eko”. “Isale literally means bottom “. Must have been used to indicate downtown (as in down town Lagos)

“Until the coming in of the Benin’s 1300AD , Lagos geographical boundary was Lagos mainland, Lagos Island, the seat of the Oba of Lagos then consisted of a pepper farm and fishing post. No one was living there.

“About 1450 AD some Yorubas who hailed from Isheri in Ogun-state and Ekiti were allowed by the King to settle in Eko during a war, they came in a very large numbers thereby surpassing the numbers of the Awori’s and Bini’s. (Hence Yorubas claim to own Eko due to their numbers).

“Oba Ado fell in love with a beautiful woman whose father was Awori and mother a daughter to one of the chief; they had two sons and also a daughter Erelu Kuti, who begot Ologun Kutere who later became King.”

Ogbuefi2020:

These afonjas and shifting goalposts. Are every yorubas indigenous to Lagos. Go back to your brown roof

Workch:
you are only being paranoid dude. Be sane, don't be stupid.

You have psychological problems of tribal bigotry

Workch:
You are insane, always looking for excuse to be bigot... Anybody can become anything as long as Nigeria is one.

You people should stop being stupid

Workch:
Why are indegenes of Yorubas not complaining that Yorubas want to take over their lands?

All these Yorubas that are complaining in Lagos here are insane and bias. Tribal bigots who don't deserve attention.

Abuja people are not as biggoted as many Yorubas. Yorubas should work on themselves and their anti-igbo syndrome.

It seems they see igbos in their nightmare.

Skyview01:
He is looking for votes. DOA!

Goodvibes007:

Peter Obi is legendary for his divisive politics and politics of bitterness.

He loves to divide along religious or tribal lines. He even said Ngige (his fellow Igbo man) was anti-igbo because Ngige belonged to the APC.

seunmsg:
I have nothing against the Rhodes Vivour kid but his anti Yoruba comments are very disturbing. I’ve seen some of his comments calling Yorubas “Afonja”. He really needs to come out and disavow some of his previous social media comments.

If your preferred candidate did not win an election, you act as democrats and congratulate the winner and move on with your life.

I believe the Oba is learned and more exposed than those insulting him

Hello Nairalanders,

Please take a moment to share your thoughts and also vote on how this issue should be resolved.

Two persons placed a bet between themselves on what the outcome of the February 25th 2023 presidential election will be.

The two of them predicted what positions two particular candidates in the election will take and placed their bets accordingly.

The only condition stated when the bet was placed is that the bet will be called off if any of the three leading candidates dies before the election.

Election has been concluded and results announced by INEC.

One of the two persons is refusing to settle the bet, that is, refusing the winner take the winning amount.

According to the person who is refusing for the bet to be settled, their candidate rejected the result and has gone to court. As such, the two of them who placed the bet must wait for the court to judge the matter before the bet is settled.

On the other hand, the second person is claiming that the results have been announced by INEC and so the bet should be settled because no condition was stated at the onset of the bet about judiciary involvement.

So, in your view, who is right between these two bettors? Should this bet be settled based on results announced by INEC or should the bet be settled based on court judgement?

Please share your opinion on how this matter should be settled.

Please mod help move to front page for more exposure

The Kano state Labour Party chairman has said his party came out on top in the just concluded presidential election in Kano. according to him his party polled over 1 million votes in kano.

Mr. Kabiru has hence called for the cancellation of the polls

FieldMarshall06:
I am OBIdient and I remain OBIdient. I stand solidly on the mandate of the people; the mandate given by the majority of Nigerians; the mandate entrusted to Peter Obi to lead Nigeria as its President. On that mandate I stand and remain firmly. Neither corruption nor electoral fraud would shaken my stand.

As for Tinubu, I don't know him. He hasn't got my mandate, he hasn't got the peoples' mandate, he is an electoral thief. And I would NEVER be led by a thief. No way.

I Do NOT accept his authority as President and I would never be led by a man whose whole life is criminal and tainted. Good luck to INEC and good luck to the stupid governors who rigged and imposed a criminal on the Nigerian people. As for me, I satisfy myself that Tinubu is not and would never be my president.

Peter Obi is my president and on his mandate I stand. Call me whatever you like, I would never answer SIR to a criminal. Never. I would rather japa than salute a rogue.

OBIdients, be strong. Peter Obi would recover his mandate. And Nigerians would smile.

shariff84:
as I typed this all the newly elected senators, house rep. members, our governor are all in Abuja to celebrate with president-elect.
We the northern masses are still dissappointed with buhari under performance,we no dey carry election matter for head since when buhari do us shege. But we are now hoping and praying for the best from Tinubu.
Finally,lack of cash is also affecting people.

EdoBoy90:
I see Sen. Com. Adams Aliyu Oshiomhole as the NEW Chief of Staff to the President-Elect. Oshiomhole played a critical role for the emergence of His Excellency, Asiwaju Bola Ahmed Tinubu, President-Elect in the just concluded Presidential Elections on February 25, 2023.

Therefore, for the purpose of equity, fairness and commitment for job well-done, Sen. Com. Adams Aliyu Oshiomhole should be appointed as the Chief of Staff of the President-Elect. This will show that Asiwaju Bola Ahmed Tinubu, President-Elect rewards hardwork and trusted friends.

Sen. Com. Adams Aliyu Oshiomhole deserves the post of the Chief of Staff to the President-Elect

Might is Right!

As Ragnar Redbeard had predicted in his book “Might is Right” , those with more resources and strings can bend the consequences of defying moral codes to their will.

Jagaban and his minions just prove that but we shall see if his reign and End will be different from those who he copied his persona From!!

Majority Nigerians voted for Tinubu cos he is the only one whom they love

Mynd44:
Elections does not work like that.

Would those people have voted for Atiku in the South?

Would they have voted Obi in the North?

Some people will rather vote Tinubu than Atiku but will voted Obi

Some will rather vote Tinubu than Obi but voted Atiku

The actress, in a now-deleted post, revealed that the curses heaped on her would only work if she collected money from Tinubu
Toyin Abraham has continued to reply to every insult on social media because she chose to support Asiwaju Bola Tinubu of the All Progressives Congress for president.

What I know is that if Peter obi has enough proves and evidence, he will win Tinubu in court.
