Yoruba is the language of Lagos
So your remark about assuming everyone speaks Yoruba is offensive and stupid
That is their homeland

What happens in Luanda, Sao Paolo , Beijing, Paris or Bogota. ??

You go to their homeland and say they assume everyone speaks Yoruba. If you cannot make an effort to learn do not go there.

The fact that you slavishly accept anglicization does not mean everyone else will or must. We view English as a mark of enslavement and will discard it one day.
You can continue teaching your children English if you like.

Lagos is a Yoruba state not a global city . It is not for you to make aspirations for the owners of the land on their behalf. You people just open your mouths to vomit shit

Concerns over growing population of destitute in Oyo, Ogun

By Seye Olumide, Ibadan
30 December 2024

There are mounting concerns over the increasing population of destitute and the threat they pose to the environment, especially in Oyo and Ogun states. Residents and motorists said it was high time governments of the Southern states had taken proactive steps to check their influx

Apart from the increasing number of destitute, residents lamented that their presence on road medians, carved out spaces in motor parks, junctions and roundabouts, in deviance to environmental laws, are worrisome.

Unfortunately, destitution has allegedly become a money-making venture across the South-West states, where thousands of people from the North and other neighbouring countries found their way through Kwara and or Kogi to Ogbomoso, Oyo, Ibadan, through to Ogere in Ogun State, and then to Kara, from where they dispersed to other parts of Lagos.

The Guardian gathered that some travelled in droves to the South-West without checks. An Ibadan resident, Kunle Adesola, said part of what also encourages them is that many unsuspecting Nigerians bring food items, used clothes, and other disposable materials to them” as a form of sacrifice to appease the gods”.

According to him, the majority of the children produced by these destitute are not given any form of education or vocational skills. “They rather continue in the begging ventures of their parents,” Adesola said. They are often found around Mokola Flyover in Ibadan, Ojoo, Challenge Bus Stop, and Akinyele in Ibadan.

“But as of today, the destitute are fast spreading and stationing in other strategic places like Gbagi and Bodija,” he said. In Ogun State, commercial bus operators at Ogijo Terminal, under the Sagamu Local Government, yesterday lamented how the activities of these destitute are becoming an eyesore, adding that they have also converted the drainage behind them into their convenience.

According to a driver, Isiaka Mayowa, they dump their refuse, urinate, and also defecate inside the drainage. He said this is daily and “you can see how dirty the drainage is”.

He added that the government should find a means to regulate their activities, mainly how they affect the environment. One of the street sweepers, who works under contract with the Lagos Waste Management Authority (LAWMA), Abike Nureni, said it wasn’t easy cleaning the Ikorodu Roundabout daily due to the nuisance generated by the destitute.

It was also learnt that the Oyo State government has routinely taken steps to address the issue of the ubiquitous destitute. Former Governor Abiola Ajimobi once resettled them at Akinyele, while the incumbent governor, Seyi Makinde, has taken several measures to address the menace but with little effect.

A trader at Mokola and another at Ojoo said: “We recall how often Task Force officials come to raid the destitute, but they keep returning to the spots.”
When contacted for comments, Oyo State Commissioner for Environment and Natural Resources, Mojeed Mogbonjubola, stated that his ministry could not speak on the issue.

However, his Ogun State counterpart, Ola Oresanya, stated that the state government has always taken up the responsibility to provide convenience to the destitute.

He explained that since the laws in Nigeria do not discriminate against any citizen from whatever part of the country they came from, the Ogun State government takes the issue as a challenge. Oresanya also disclosed that his ministry liaised with leaders of the destitute communities across the state on ways to handle their conveniences.

Mo saleh is a Muslim faithful. I condemn this picture. I condemn it, I condemn it.

This is blasphemy against the Most Holy Prophet Muhammad (SAW).

Under our sharia law , the punishment for this, is death by stoning.

Mo Saleh must be punished so others who may want to embrace same blasphemous Act will learn a lesson.

May Allah have mercy on Mo saleh

codemaniacs:
there is a lot to fear about sh:ar:iah in the Yoruba nation...

it means muslim employees can sue their non-muslim employers to sh:ar:iah courts which means non-muslim employers will reduce the amount of muslims they hire which will indirectly lead to more poverty amongst muslims.

it means muslims and non-muslims can no longer talk casually anymore.

it means non-muslims who can empower and uplift muslims will stay clear of uplifting muslims which means more poverty amongst muslims.

it means non-muslim schools will not give muslims admissions anymore or will have muslims sign agreements before they are given admissions..

it means non-muslim financial co-operatives and unions will no longer offer help to muslims.. e.t.c..

millions Yoruba muslims already have it bad in the SW.. sh:ar:iah will make their situation worse and give an edge to non-Yoruba muslims in the same SW which they are indigenous to...

No Yoruba traditional celebration in Ilorin again.

Nigerians and stupidity is like madman and dirty cloth, you cannot seperate the two

Airports with high traffic does not mean best Airport. That's just about number of passengers travelling through the Airport

Ask any travellor who have travelled through Kotoka, Mutala and Nnamdi Azikiwe Arport and they will all tell you Kotoka Airport is the best all round.

Richtaiwo:
Go to the airport, aircrafts are still landing and taking off every 15 to 20 minutes. And most of those aircrafts are filled to capacities. Where do you think those passengers get money from?

When that useless meat factory is established, you will see endless queues of Nigerians around there to buy factory meat. If you go to shoprite, you will see processed foods like rice with price tags. People are still buying them.

So forget it, in this country, the more you look, the more confused you get.

You don't know Lulu Briggs because you don't know who is who in nigerian, Anyway Lulu is one of the billionaire in Nigeria ( he is into oil business from PH) he died here in GH. Many nigerians have been referred here base on the kind of fercility gh offer and not because of waiting time like that of the UK( you said it is the reason for choosing Nigeria). Many top politicians have used GH hospital. The likes of eyadema of Togo for example.

Times higher ranking is the most commonly refers to in the table of ranking . And by their own standard , they have ranked a Ghanaian university ahead of her Nigeria counterpart , that is the bone of discussion. And if you go thru the ranking from the same institution, you will realised Ghanaian university have been dominating the lost for long .

It is not about the number of universities,it is about the quality and academic standard
