berem: so all the yorubas threatening fire and brimstones on igbos on this forum are not lagosians? o ma ga fun awon eyan!

some are like desola. Likes of Samesir, Isale gan, 9ja something, Symex and co are lagosians too. In reality NL is just a joke We just hurt each other for some reason I don't even know

sincerenigerian: I wouldn't blame the guy for refusing to the amputation. I was exactly like that when the doctors made the decision to amputate my wife's leg on Chrismas day of 2010. I refused to accept it because I could not imagine something of that magnitude happening to my wife, but as I was crying and wailing, my wife said they should go ahead and amputate the leg. Our kids were 2 and 3 years old then and we just started to enjoy our lives. But doctors said she was likely to die within days because blood was not flowing through the veins in the leg. Her blood began to cloth in various parts of the body. She was put on blood thinner for some time and up till this day she is still on high dose of blood thinner.

We are still not out of the wood yet. The sickness almost claimed the second leg recently but God saved the second leg. The sickness (systemic lupus) is deadly. It has recently affected the kidney and we are just hoping for the best.

This thing is financially and emotionally draining. God is our strength.

this is just a phase my brother all is well. God is in control, please pray and fast. I really do admire your strength

Eko ile or iragbeji ile does not and will never speak for lagosians. Even his boss Tinubu is not a Lagosian

Lagosians and yorubas in general are not tribalistic. We lagosians love Igbos and other Nigerians without being bias.

Now let me some statements here

1. There are true indigenes of Lagos state and we are still Alive in number. In fact 50-60% of yorubas you see in Lagos are true Lagosians (undiluted blood) and I am one of them and we have them here on Nairaland as well.

2. Lagos is a yoruba state which is under Nigeria thus the culture and setting of the state is yoruba. Egun, Awori, Ijebu and Egbas are yorubas. I am half Awori and Egun myself and my name is yoruba, I speak yoruba, I dress Yoruba and I would always be associated with yoruba. Not only myself but the whole state.

3. This does not mean there is any discrimination against non-indigenes such as the Igbos. It is wrong and that is not what Fashola is trying to do. Fashola has nothing against Igbos

4. Lagos is not operating as a different country so there is no citizenship so to put it. Everyone can trace their root back to their village. What I mean is that even if you are the third generation lagosian, it does not make you an indigene. You can and will be sent packing once this country split unless the traditional laws are changed.

With all that said, we are all brothers so lets enjoy this country while it last.

ACM10: Get well soon Dr Eziachi. I thank God that you took the right decision to amputate the dead limb. Our family friend had a road traffic accident 4 days ago and sustained a deep laceration at the groin to the extent that it affected the major blood vessel to the leg. Delays made it impossible for vascular surgeon to intervene at appropriate time. The limb was gone after twelve hours. He refused the medical advice of the orthopaedic surgeon to amputate the limb. Requested for discharge against medical advice. Ordered for the tourniquet at the groin to be removed.

What happened next was shocking. I witnessed the phenomenon called "reperfusion injury" for the first time. He was in crisis. The kidney shut down within hours. In his crisis state, he consented for the leg to be amputated. But it was too late. He had his last breath before the surgeon and the physician could intervene.

He was only 36yrs with 4 kids. The youngest is 3 weeks old. He refused to heed my advice that half-life is better than half-death. So, I congratulate you for taking the wise decision. It is well with you.

This is serious but I don't blame the man. Trust me if you were in his shoes, you might have done the same

4 Play: I'm surprised Eziachi is a mature man as I used to presume that the tribal warriors on here are bored and idle teenagers or duogenerians. Get well soon and hope to see you back championing more worthy causes than ethnic division.

He was never a "tribal warrior" follow some his post on this site, you will observe that he has a deep sense of understand about politics in Nigeria.

Wish you a speedy recovery Brother. You a good writer and have always followed your analysis which has been very objective in it own right.

berem: A second and third Niger Bridge will not even guarantee him victory come 2015.

LOL I know but will he even build them before 2015. He never had SE on his mind from the on set, all he is trying to do is please the North and that is his greatest undoing. The sensible Southerners have seen this and are tracing back their steps. Likes of Ngige, Rochas, Ameachi, Uduagban Emma, Adam and ALL OF SW.

The SW have seen their new political messiah and it is not APC nor Tinubu but Fashola !!!Note Fashola carefully

one thing I can say is that we should wait for 2015 to come first. I am sure GEJ will not win the whole SE unlike before

Willy4Willy: Don't lie, you are not Christian but a Yoruba Babalawo man

No more middle-belt in the alliance ?

Afam4eva: Alhaji, long time. Which username have you been using these days?

username ? I am still alj harem, just been busy and watching how GEJ is destroying our country's economy.

from lagos but ebonyi looks like a very nice place with loads of potentials. God bless Ebonyi state

Adejoro74: Why can't these SWners do something and remain steadfast to it? Why must they flip flop all the time
Awo betrayed Igbos and is now begging in his grave
Tinubu betrayed Ribadu in the 2011 elections and later went to apologize and make up
Diya Betrayed Abacha and later begged
Fasehun Betrayed MKO (so far he has not recanted, but he will soon)
This senator now betrays the north after supporting them and voting for their child abuse
Oduduwa betrayed olodumare and was pushed down from the skies
The ACN governors pushed Amaechi to fight GEJ, only to turn around and ask him to make up with GEJ

I can go on and on.

i hope you know Olodumare means God

dayokanu: 1. Wole Soyinka

2. Obafemi Awolowo

3. Ladoke Akintola

4. Benjamin Adekunle

5. Kanu Nwankwo

Very complete list. I concur

sarutobie: You have to admit,Dangote is a strong contender.

actually Dantata part of the family

LOL these are leaders

Willy4Willy: Look at this Stupid Tiv Chief, Who cares if Fulanis want to wipe Tivs out from the surfaces of the earth, Don't you people have any Army General?, i dey laugh

Looooooooooooool, who cares really idiot

Messi j: For imposing cultism in our society, frm primary to higher institution. I usually ask, those killed by Boko haram, and wole inviegled cult, which are more?

Cultism ? such as the pirates ? which is know for peace ? Some of you are just mad

kakachi: What do you mean by Wole floging Achebe convincingly?granted Wole has done us proud,but Achebe has equally done
same.Achebe is not in anyway inferior to Soyinka in literarry works.And for your information Soyinka in all his glory
can never produce a work that will be as successful as Achebe's "Things Fall Apart"

Things fell apart and will further fall apart with the way this semi illiterate is ruling this nation

Splendid7: hello daft, if she is nt superior to you, then why nt affirm this ur comments in a national newspaper and see the outcome. I repeat, WOLE'S PROBLEM IS ENVY. HIS ENGLISH OR WHATEVER CANNOT LEAD HIM TO ASO ROCK VILLA

And how has her presences in aso rock made your life better ? Gej has rubbished this nation in the eyes of serious minded nation by allowing an okirika wife a default president while he is just a face. Unless nation

frederal: The problem is that these people like to "over magnify" the worth of their own, they are too tribalistic. She may end-up embarrassing him more.

The problem also with your people is that they so much tribalistic than those that over magnify their own. Your people are know for crime, tribalism, illiteracy, fake people and product. Likes of achebe, nnamdi and co have destroyed this nation.

this is embarrassing. GEJ needs to go

tomorrow it starts

kettykin: I Think being Brain Locked is the only thing worse than being Land Locked, Other wise how could anybody explain the case of some tribes men in Nigeria who do not want to Jump ship from the sinking ship called Nigeria and are fighting off other tribes who want to jump ship .

How can one understand tribes men who have one of the largest commercial coastal city states in Nigeria Lagos, an Oil producing state in Ondo, several states with large expanse of arable Land, well developed commercial cities in Lagos and Ibadan, very Large populace numbering more than 35 million bigger than 75% of the population of African countries,a fairly educated work force and business men, struggling to be a third class citizen in a failing country with crocodile tears of how they have been marginalized by the present regime and fighting off other tribes who want to leave the sunk ship.

How can one explain the intransigence of this group of people

by all means you can go

dayokanu: waiting for Yorubas to help them break out, Waiting for Yoruba to feed them Yorubas to accomodate them

Na wa o, Shey dem create us because of una ni

Gbam you just hit the nail on the head. Why can't they just break off without the yorubas

dayokanu: Well said waiting for sensible rebuttals

Am waiting as well because these people have never made sense. Any reasonable objective thinker would see what is happening in Nigeria without Ogogoro.

That is why likes of even Asari Dokubo cannot talk because he is also a parasite. A parasite to his people

[quote author=Rhino.5dm]Spewing all these thrash won't help you derail the topic. Parasitic organism [/quote]

BLOODY PARASITES. NEVER LETTING GO OF THEIR HOST (NIGERIA AND SS OIL)

ak47mann: which eye opener?if yoruba states where one of the major contribution, dnt u think that ekiti and other yoruba state apart from former capital "lagos" which every yoruba claim they came from,will be enjoying 13% like their fellow niger delta?sometimes,you lot behave like an illiterate may be u are

Yet in that ekiti and co you find Uche, Nnamdi and IK all working to earn a living, Why dont they stay in the Japan of Africa where there are more money and opportunity for them. You see your reasoning ?

ACM10: You are yet to upgrade your infantile brain. Please wallow in your ignorance. You are unteachable and I got no time to educate you. Nonetheless, I will engage you if you stay on the topic.

Abeg pack well biko !

What is there. why not answer your own question truthfully and let us rest.

Who is holding this nation together and why

Here are the possible outcomes due to interest

1. The president = He is not a northerner nor a yorubaman

2. COAS = He is an Igbo man who can easly do a coup and divide the nation

3. The most active militants which are MEND and Boko Haram = Both are not of yoruba origin

4. PDP = controlled by the north and SS/SE

5. House of reps and senate = SS/NORTH AND SE MINORITY SW

6. Even private industries can do a breakup = controlled by the most industrialised people on earth the SE

7. Oil = SS

From all these, it is a clear indication who is holding this nation. Do you see yoruba people invest everywhere ? NO !!!

What interest is this nation for them other than you people parasitizing on there resources and lying on Lagos.

[quote author=Rhino.5dm]Stick to the thread!!

Tell me why the self acclaimed industrious region is found Swimming with boko haram states, each beggar is trying to out do the other?[/quote] only the SS ( because of oil) and the SW (minus lagos which is about 200 billion thus the rest is about 134 billion which is still more than anyother region) are the contributor to this nation. The main parasites are the ones in the south that boast of more contribution than China and yet still beggers. SMH

ak47mann: another propaganda,but una still be learner

keep decieving yourself and others from your region. You know the truth but keep acting in denial.
