yoruba will beg us not to learn yoruba or speak it wen e set.


now trouble dey sleep yanga go wake am up.

this is wat we should be doing, some of us already doing it long time ago.


Who loses certainly not us.

riverbird:
Some Igbos born in the SW bare Yoruba names, I know a few, you are right that's what the Fulani did to the hausa of northern Nigeria and today hausa is just a name in Nigeria.

Any where you go take their name and learn their language.


Same person speaking their language will occupy any office



They are bigots, make a fool out of them

DelphiOracle:
what will happen to a child who just came to Lagos from the north or east of the country and wants to gain admission into jss1?

lol in lagos right?


u don chop?



until then u will lknow.



nothing can stop them

let everybody add yoruba names to their language.


that is wat yoruba need.


Becos only a foolish man forces his language on the multitude, knowing fully well they are city dwellers



so they can colonise more of yoruba land with it.

riverbird:
One of the best ways to take over another persons land is to learn have that one thing that binds them together and that one thing is language, that way they won't be able to hide anything anymore..... facts check every conquest starts from the inside through someone who knows the land.....it has been written that an Igbo blood will rule that Lagos and every other land in the SW.

it already happened.


i want igbo people to learn how to take native names once they move into the area, and with the language, u are unstoppable.



that is wat fulani do.

DelphiOracle:
then u teach it to those who want to learn. Not forcing it on people.

Let them force, they will learn alll people are not the same.

some cannot learn it no matter wat u do.


besides the gov in public school will be paying somebody for this so that is a positive at least it is not all a waste of time.

Christistruth00:
That is still not an excuse for Gbadebo Rhodes to not speak or think in Yoruba


He must!!!

Did u force the igbos dat speak yoruba in lagos to do so with your mumu law?



U are wasting your time, people niot interested wont speak it no matter what ytou do.

babtoundey:
You keep saying English is lingua Franca, Lagos is cosmopolitan... The native and government said that is the rule. I don't think it calls for an argument or a cry for marginalization.

To apply for some schools, higher institutions included, in certain countries like China, Germany, Russia etc, you're compel to study and learn the native language. Many schools in UK and US don't care whether you've obtained a Phd in English language, as long as English is not your native language, you must write a proficiency iltest in English before you can gain admission or be employed. If you have no problem with that, I wonder why you should have problem with this. With those countries, it is either you accept the offer to be taught their language or you look elsewhere for your admission or job. It's as simple as that.

Every action and inaction of government should not always be interpreted as witch-hunting or systemic attacks on a group.

If the policy is implemented, even many Yoruba children will be affected. Many parents, particularly in Lagos and Ogun state who consider themselves elite prevent their children from speaking or learning to read and write Yoruba. So, this could be a way of correcting those educated illiterate parents and force them to see the reason why their children need to understand Yoruba.

Which native?

The people dat have told u to leave them out of your yoruba bigot agenda?


They dont identitfy as Yoruba.

I have never see people more greedy than Yoruba biggot.

Seaport only us.

Airport only us.

causing over population and log jam in Lagos and now SW.

Amaka is an old lady when she travelled abroad. She is just like me and you.

Do you agree we have lot of Yoruba/Igbos abroad that can’t even speak their language and don’t know much about your culture and tradition.

If you stay abroad you’ll understand me. In that same Lagos, there are igbos that don’t speak Igbo but speak/understand Yoruba. You want to tell me that won’t have an influence on them?

Did you pass any law for them to speak yoruba?


We all know yoruba, that is the point and we know our native languages too.]



what influence are you looking for? over population of Lagos and SW?



WEN FULANI ANE EVERYBODY START SPEAKING YORUBA DAT WILL BE OVER POPULATION.


MAYBE DAT IS WAT U WANT.

wen the bigotry becomes ridiculous.




u laff

or u want to pass law to ban us speaking our language at home



yoruba bigots!

wen calabar people reach house they speak calabar, likewise ijaw.


Outside English


we will learn yoruba as 3rd class language for fun



most of us already know yoruba and speak it anyway

in my house i dont speak yoruba but igbo and english.

get it!


learning yoruba dont make us yoruba

Gboom:
Speaking Yoruba generally will foster unity among Yoruba and other ethnic groups unlike somebody speaking a language that is different from yours and you will be thinking they are talking bad about you

Delusional, u cannot talk bad about anybody but we can talk bad about you in our own language.


U seen to think we will ever stop speaking English or our languages, we wont.

We will just add yoruba

chopnaira:
Lies. Ibos full public school well well. Time for them to learn Yoruba or they can always move back to Anambra

Igbo and other tribes learning yoruba will help you preserve yoruba.

Yoruba is second class language.


English remain tops

chopnaira:
And we are just warming up 🤣

U long lost even before the first yoruba arrived Lagos.


It may take two generations for you to concede defeat.


We die here.

And wen we say Lagos is a no mans land they get jealous that we want inclusion

Even Tinubu claiming Lord of Lagos is not from Lagos, may not even be a Nigerian with the way he keep running after French and the rumour that he is from Guinea Bissua.



As of today he is claiming Irabiji Osun state.


Ambode na Ondo state man.


Sanwolu is from Ogun State.


None of them are Lagosians.

See the real owner of Lagos here, non admit to be yoruba



Awori, Egun, Ijebu, Bini and the Brazilian returnees.




I think the ijaws claim riverine parts with illaje etc.

LegendHero:
I am sure you don't even believe the bolded. Yoruba is still more thicker than any other ethnic group in the South.

Track it abroad, Yoruba tend to speak their language and practice their culture more openly,.

U are the mandate thief of the South.

Some retard born and raised in Ogun State cannot come and be telling me about Lagos.


U will learn about Lagos from me.

I'm a Lagosian by birth and was raised there.


Igbo Lagosian

Which native of Lagos admit to be yoruba?

Awori, Ijebu, Egun and the Brazilian returnee

Ijaya123:
Yoruba people are asking students studying in Yorubaland to be tested in Yoruba language but you're here crying hot tears over Yoruba affairs.

What manner of obsession is this? Is your survival dependent on the Yorubas?

Lagos is no mans land.


How can it be yorub aland when the natives say they are not Yoruba?


All the governors are from Osun, Ondo, Ogun state

Ok u tell us the influence you want it to have on them because so far, in my case absolutely none.


A city is not your village, people will not speak tribal language when they are not required to do so. ''


English is stil the national language.

Strafudeen:
The igbos will learn your language and add French Russian, German, Arabic, and still go home to eat new yam.
Be wise, you can't conquer anyone this way.

Speaking good yoruba, u can just enter Ogun State.

Wickedfact:
We sell our land to Okeke, we use the money to call Wasiu and party.
When the money finish, we demolish your house and sell the land to Okafor.
We use the money for Ojude Oba.
When the money finish, we call nwosu developer to build plaza and we sell shops to Nwa boy.
Once money finish, we throw fire inside the plaza and demolish. We turn am to market.

You are hopeless fools without sense and we will keep playing you.

I said u were the clowns of Africa and u prove it.

Keep selling land.


We will keep buying land

yommen:
Buy land.

That land Dangote bought is just the beginiing, he will buy more whilst you shout na we get lagos and forcing yoruba on everybody.

Wickedfact:
You will be compelled to receive Yoruba tribal marks on your cheeks before are allowed to hawk gala in Lagos.
