Yoruba_Omoge:

Shut up, my friend.



Because you're the only nonyoruba mod in this section.

Why get defensive over a simple yes or no question?

Yoruba_Omoge: Afan, are you bias against Yorubas?

ba7man: This shutting down is long over-due. I remember someone posted pics of Ladipo market once on NL and a lot of people were quick to start pointing fingers at how dirty Lagos is. Now LASG is about to take decisive measures and some people are still complaining. Frankly, filth is not the only problem there but criminal traders are also plentiful there. The population has to be reduced there to give the market a saner face. We are past year 2000 and heading towards year 3000 and some people still want to defend backwardness, force is the main Language a lot of Nigerians understand. If you don't treat them like animals, they'll never learn.

OAM4J:

You called the poster you were responding to a fool before making your point. I have edited your post removing the insult and its now visible. Please lets try and be civil even when we disagree with each other.

Thanks.

manny4life:


I bet he'll close it down, an open market that controls the entire economy of Lagos, perhaps if he does, he will tell me all them taxes and fees he's collecting, where he will get them from.


More reasons why Fashola should not even be allowed to come near presidency because his thinking is just straightforward. You don't solve issues like that, you explore ALL possible options, and closing down a market because it's dirty is the one of the most stupid reasons I've heard.

I've always said this, and this is not about Igbos ONLY, but others as well, LAGOS is gradually becoming business unfriendly. People need to start looking for other alternatives, whether it's Ladipo or mile 12 or Ketu or whichever, it's WRONG.

manny4life:

This is ridiculous, LASG needs to rethink their policies. Last year I went to NY fashion district with my mom, and goodness gracious, from Penn station to Broadway, the filthy streets, pot holes with water, just eewed me, but I give them credit because there are dump trucks like few blocks away, street cleaners, so many people working day and evening to keep the streets clean. It was dirty but DAMN, I had to give them credit. Meanwhile this is city that controls billion of $$$ in economic activity

ilugunboy:

Well I sympathize with those traders but haven said that, the traders can protest and decide to leave Lagos en-masse so that when Lagosians suffer from that, the Govt will have no choice but to recall them and lower the rates....there is something call bargaining chip or more diabolically...blackmail...

manny4life: One thing I've realized from LASG is that though they have good intentions, HOWEVER, the way they go about is EVIL. An open market is usually dirty, how dirty or filthy is story for another day. Why shut down the market? This is what makes Oyibo people smarter than us, rather they will have dump truck, sanitation folks who come daily to pick out the trash, clean out everywhere --- win win for everyone.

nl.official:
[size=15pt]Shame on all of you that bring tribalism to every thread. We all know that the spare parts are usually brought used. [/size]

Billyonaire: Its a welcomed development, cos I went to that market once some years ago and it was terrible. Those traders are careless about their environment.

Mad Cow:



Hahahahahahahahahahahahaaaa


This is what you started. You brought this anarchy into our midst. You started the division of Nwanne against Nwanne. As much as I agree that I haven't felt Odumichis presence in a while which may be due to circumstances beyond his control as we all have our lives to live away from Nairaland, I still don't think you have earned the right to cast a stone at him.

If you want to help, advice our Imo State brethren to desist from attacking Anambra State and her people's. We shall not stand by and watch their Governor interfere and cause division in our midst.

Anambra people are peace loving, but are not shy to stand up for themselves. We have seen the antics of the Imo's and we are now fully alert.

9ja_I_hail: Umu igbo i am ashamed of this dance of shame we all are here dancing.

The worst part of it all is our NL Eze elected seem inactive. Yes i blame him on most of these things because where you needed him to act like an Eze you won't find him there.

Like someone rightly asked, if our NL eze failed to comment on threads or issues concerning igbos what else will him do for us as an online forum Eze? Building houses,bridges,roads,and getting us wives?

Eze Odumchi, i am sorry but i need to say this, you are not in charge of this administration and it is really becoming shameful that you are incapable to lead and you seems to be under influence of wrong advisers. I pray you are not what people claimed you are during the election, because if my memory served me right,during the election that brought you in as our Eze many igbo posters accused you of been a tools which other tribes planned to use to divide igbos hence many of these tribes can't stand the fact that Onlytruth was able to make igbos speak with one voice throughout his administration.

What is happening between igbos since few days on this forum is exactly the same situation i met igbos on this forum when i newly joined this site, igbos are always up against their self's but once we managed to arranged this ezeship and onlytruth emerged as the leader, igbos division become a thing of history now we are returning back to the same stupid attitude under your leadership.

I wouldn't mind to formerly resign my post as a member of ELECTORAL TRIBUNAL and form opposition that will bent on criticizing any Eze who feel he can sit on the eze throne just to answer name without DOING HIS JOB. It is our right that you should work for us because we all collectively voted for you to lead us,for the fact that we voted you in we must criticize you until you sit up and work for us.


I am not saying you must lead like Onlytruth rather i am saying you should make igbos notice that they have an eze on this forum, i bet you many new igbo members does not know we have Eze on this forum.

I refused to comment on this thread as a good observer i first of all checked the poster he/she is an Yoruba bigot who want igbos to tear their self's apart and he/she succeeded, if it were to be when onlytruth was in power he would be the first to caution everyone about the op intention.

Eze i am loosing patience and confidence in this leadership. Someone may argue that it is too early to complain but how long shall we watch you with your inactive and indecisive nature while igbo unity on this forum is tearing apart? Eze this is a call wake up, act now or declare yourself incapable to lead which is obvious.

Eze i am loosing my faith as a die hard igbo who never feel good whenever igbos goes up against their self's.

Thank you.

slimghost:

You are a bloody person, no need engaging you in a sensible argument. you are really empty and intellectually myopic!

PointB: Behold Buhari, the new face of Do or Die politics!

Onlytruth: I know within my heart that the Igbo nation would rather vote for a GEJ presidency under which Igbo are gradually but steadily taking back their rightful positions in MANY national spheres, than to rush into a second fiddle VP position in a party formed by die hard tribalists and religious extremists; those who see the East as a conquered territory.
I guess this would start to become obvious to all after the APC presents its presidential candidate. A lot of Igbo are still quiet because it is still very early days.
BTW I like all these political "conundrums" provided that "okuko na akpa nri, anya uhie akokwala ya o" -the chicken that is foraging for food must never lose proper side views!.

Onlytruth:

My brother kedu ije?
As long as we have Igbo with GOOD heads on their shoulders like you, we shall be safe in Nigeria.

slimghost:

Stop being ignorant Mr Man, nobody is talking about moving Nigeria forward. Everybody is looking after his and his tribesmen interest first. Tinubu and his cohorts felt marginalized under the present administration and felt the need to form an alliance to take power back. If its how to move the country forward, the Hausa/Fulanis should step aside for another alternative since their years of misrule put us into this mess in the first place. But No, for them, their people comes first before other Nigerians and thats why they need to have power back. Open your eyes nwokem

Mr. Globe:

APGA is not an igbo party but it has won major elections in Abia, Anambra and Imo. dumbass

Abagworo:

I dey laugh. Your tribalism has blinded you from the realities of disadvantages associated with self isolation. And don't come with that APGA being an Igbo party crap because there is no Igbo party. Even Ojuku pitched tents with IBB in 2011 and asked Igbos to support IBB. How silly does that sound. In Igboland our culture is "all man for himself" and neither Rochas, APC nor APGA can influence the collective interest of Igbos.


http://www.vanguardngr.com/2010/05/2011-ojukwu-canvasses-support-for-ibb/

Abagworo:

Why all these Igbo this, Igbo that? It is getting boring. Everyone is talking about how to move Nigeria forward and you are here talking about Igbo.

alkadriyar: @ OP, This is not "desperation of APC" it is the desperation of Nigerians.

berem: Moderators please move this thread to the sports section.Thank you.

rhymz: apparently, you are the one that does not understand his onw comment.
So am supposed to take journalistic embelishment like Rochas being the bride of the party or Igbo leader by the writer seriously to the extent of making these confusing comments you are making and continue to make.
Nwa nne, understand your own arguments first before rushing to cry blue murder. There is nothing else to discuss with you here.

rhymz: This is exactly my problem with you, arrogating some fictitious power to certain people to choose who which tribes or political parties have done enough to be chosen. Don't you see how you sound? The APC is just starting out for 4ck sake, it is neither ACN or CPC, it is a merger for crying out loud not owned by Tinubu or Buhari. You keep talking about their contribution, what exactly have they contributed to the merger that is even yet to take off? They don't even have structures anywhere, no constitutions, am not even sure INEC has recognized them and there you are talking about it like you were talking about an Igbo man joining Arewa or Odudwa congress.
Nobody has contributed anything yet, don't foretell stories here biko, they are starteing out and everyone has equal rights to contest for any position, nobody cares who or what made the move to form the merger, the major point there is that it is a merger of different political parties with one common aim, to wittle down the the strength of the opposition. Shikena. All that claptrap about controlling 36 states is BS and a redundant ruse that is self-serving and selfish.
By the way, I have read my Last post, they convey exactly what I mean.

pazienza:

And she is not fast in recognizing a non-igbo,parading himself as igbo,whose task is to divide us.
Nne,you are better than this. Mad cow is the same person as okija juju,he is an aboki,he has never been igbo,he majors in dividing us.

rhymz: Guy you are talking to yourself. I am also from Imo State and I understand that APGA is a very divided party caused by people with greed and self-serving plans even before the arrival of Rochas.
I like what Rochas has done and the way he spoke about the issue, he knows of course joining the merger was a neccessary evil that must be done especially when it is very clear that JEG has lost the support and goodwill of the generality of Nigerians and is so afraid of not getting the northern supoort than getting our support.
This is politics not some emotinal clap-trap about igbo-yoruba-hausa civil war rivalry. Many Igbos started PDP but where are they today? Abeg free Rochas jare. He is doing what needs to be done even when it makes him look odd.
