This brief summary is not to incite tribal war, but to allow all the foolish tribalist youths on Nairaland learn from the past. Violence only begets violence.

In war, people die, children suffer, and lands are destroyed. No matter how terrible the national situation is, war is the last thing anybody wants.

"Life and history have taught us that conflicts are never resolved without effective give and take from both sides".... MLK

Let's tolerate one another; Youths, history repeats itself. History repeats itself.

Cc lalasticlala, Dominique, seun

those who rejects a peaceful change makes violent change inevitable.

This is judicial nonsense.

This write-up is a rebuttal to the crap posted by one by the monicker yanshdoctor which he titled ' ,What Lagos Yoruba's need to know about Lagos', in which he made some nasty and unsavoury comments about the Yoruba people as well as roll out false information about Lagos State. Ordinarily, I don't comment on nairaland. I usually visit the forum as a guest. But when I saw the extent to which the Igbo people are wont to badmouthing Yoruba people, peddling false information about them despite having been so magnanimous to the Igbo people over the years in the history of this country ,I have no choice but to join the forum so that records can be set straigth. I have to do this because if your neighbour are peddling false stories about you and you keep quiet ,it would not be long before others begin to believe their lies.

First, Lagos was not developed by the colonialists, nor by Igbo's (in fact Igbos contributed more than any other factor to the cripplling of the southwestern Nigeria economy) nor with oil money.It was developed by the Yoruba people. Before the discovery of oil, Lagos was already heavily industrialized. I am talking of as far back in the 50s. We used to have industrial estates scattered all over the southwestern states including Ogun ,Oyo ,Osun,Lagos, Ondo and Ekiti.

Up till the late 70s , these industries established by Yoruba people and foreigners alike were providing ready employments to fresh graduates from our Universities and Polytechnics. These were the times that people will mock you if you buy a secondhand car because the word " tokunbo cars" does not exist at that time.

It is also instructive to know that at that time, we used to manufacture practically everything being imported into the country today ranging from electricals,electronics, automotives, motor spare parts, tyres, textiles and clothings, footwears and other leather products just to mention a few.

The prosperity of the western side of Nigeria began to attract people from other parts of the country coupled with the the fact that Yoruba people are generally accommodating of people of other ethnic groups and discrimination based on ethnicity at workplaces in southwest Nigeria is generally absent.

This was also the time that the naira used to exchanged for about 75 kobo (N0.75) to $1. Brand new cars used to go for between N2000(two thousand naira) and N7000(seven thousand naira).

The problems of the southwest began when Shagari came into power and began granting import licences for the importations of goods we are already producing. The federal government at the time refused to listen to the cry of economic experts for the federal government to protect our infant industries.

I am sorry to say this, but it is the truth. The Igbo people latched on to the weakness of the federal government policy on the need to protect infant industries and the markets became a washed with cheap and fake versions of the highly quality products we used to produce at home ,all imported from the Asian countries. I know some of us reading this piece will remember " this is from Taiwan".

Mass retrenchments was what followed as the once burgeoning industries could no longer operate profitably. Over 40,000 industries have since close down.Our youths can no .longer secure good jobs after graduating from school and the naira exchange rate to world major currency have been depreciating since then.

Igbo's will never tell you how they bombed pen cinema in Agege , the then equivalent of Silverbird cinema of today, killing so many Yoruba people who went to see a movie with their friendsand families as well as planted IEDs all over Lagos in order to destroy Lagos and kill as many Yoruba people as possible at the beginning of the civil war which was not caused by Yoruba people. The Igbo's have always been envying and hating the Yoruba people for no just cause, hence the lies and devilish propaganda they have been spreading about us on the social media.

l wish to categorically state here that the economy of Lagos have been functioning perfectly well before Igbo's came and destroy it with importation of cheap, fake , adultrated, and substandard goods. The departure of the Igbo's from Lagos and southwest will only lead to the revival of industrialization of our region, because unnecessary importation of goods we can produce at home though at higher prices will stop. I am not saying the Igbos should leave, but they are free to do so if that is what they want but not at the expense of the unity of the nation.

Igbo's should stop badmouthing Yoruba people .We have always been forgiving you people for the harms you people have been doing to us and our economy. It is rather unfortunate that Igbo people think that our patience and gentleness is something that should be exploited.We are not fools.

the Yoruba that I know are not fools ,but you that write this text which I read now, you are a big FOOL. You build Lagos alone I agree.

Sheriff is a party destroyer.

So they still have a place to keep the girls after being technically defeated.

The stubborn dictator should resign or repent and give his ministers free hand to work.

Nnamdi kanu is like fire in the bosom of Fg, if they keep holding him there will never be peace and if they release him they will continue to leave in fear of unknown, so I said is a very foolish thing to arrest him in the first place.

If buhari don't know what to say let him shot up, how many youth is in his cabinet? A dictator who filled all positions with half dead men and women is talking about energizing the youth. Buhari and his cabinet should be in old people home by now.

Mr vendetta will never allow his fellow thieves go unpunished.

AntiIPOOP:
The last time I checked, all those you mentioned has only 1 PVC. The Ugu republic/ the Indonesians and the biafrog can keep wailing till eternity, I don't care

shot up and enjoy the hardship the illiterate buhari is inflicting on you.

busaritoyin:
I know some people will cry when they discover the oil in the North. Natural resources that some idiots claiming our oil like they put it there. No single brain at all.

Listen carefully, of those oil drilling companies should leave that side because of your ignorant and radical attitude, the rate of poverty in the land will no be measured. Eyin omo irankiran. Some foolish Biafra famzing some idiot saying they want their freedom without checking their may well and see they are not bordering any country. They have eyes but can't see

the last time I checked Taiwan borders no country but remains one of the richest country on earth, by the way,why are you caring if biafra have boarders or not, if biafra needs Nigeria more than Nigeria needs them, why is Nigeria keeping them? You only know how to use abusive words but have nothing in your head that is why you get upset at any mention of biafra. But either you like it or not biafra is a matter of time, it must surely come.

AntiIPOOP:
The 97%er are now wailers? Where did you get your facts? U think wailing on NL is a big deal, right? Go to Twitter and try those shiii and see how some badass niggas will roast your ass hands down

which Twitter? We have heard of zombies like oby, atiku,mbaka, junaid turning to waillers and these are rich zombies, the poor zombies have been wailing in their millions, my dear the zombies you see today are sycophantic zombies, by 2019 we will know the real diehard zombies.

Femich18:
Hmmmmm...Stop wasting your time. God doesn't listen to this kind of prayers.
You are praying for somebody's effort to be in vain and you want yours to be productive? God is not partial bro

buhari is undertaken a useless Labour by searching for oil, while the oil we have now seams worthless.

Anabel:
Whose labour will favour you? Donald Trump? When you make a prayer like this for the president of a country you live in, you think you are doing buhari? No sir, you are doing yourself. If his labour is supposed to take a positive turn, it will take a negative turn on you cos of your negativity

A Labour with mind of vengeance, a Labour in wrong direction and a meaningless Labour is what buhari is undertaken, we have oil in different parts of Nigeria which seams useless now, all what the dictator thinks is to use the scarce money to search for more useless commodity, and i am saying it loud again, let all buhari Labour be in vain. Ameeen.

God please let all buhari 's Labour be in vain.Ameeen

Remove buhari and Nigeria will get back to number one.

tsdarkside:
i am absolutely not struggling to feed myself!!!...do you know me??....abegi park well!!!.....

back to sender!...

kneel down let me pray for you, from now on i pray that buhari 's bad policies will never affect you as you seize to be a zombie now! Ameeen.

Pdp left a virtually empty treasury of 30 billion, in 2019 the report will be;Apc left a 30 billion debt on every Nigerian head.

tsdarkside:
my salary was not reduced till nau...i am a construction-worker...the demand for my profession is high...its not my faullt,that you learned something that is not high in demand...

Mr worker, you are struggling to feed yourself now because your our dictator president has made things worse even your construction company have layoffs some workers, so if you are not yet affected get yourself ready because you must go before baba finish his tenure.

It is only in the zoo you will see fools insulting their intellectuals and heroes.

tsdarkside:
no,nonooo,nooooooooooooo....we 95%ers are the true nigerians...the 5%ers are fake-nigerians...in a democratic-system...numbers always count....

sooooo....una can go hug banana-trees,for all what we care....but atleast you have the right to wail till 2023......

after 2023 we will tell you who to vote and what to do...because we are 95%ters....!!!...

but your salary have been reduced by inflation, thanks to 5%ers oil.And your hunger Will continue till 2023 when you will get sense.many of 97%are now waillers ,so I don't think there will be much zombies in 2019.

If 97% said they are the only patriotic Nigerians then they will never enjoy the country alone. 5% can never be worked over, buhari must have learnt that he is a president for all Nigerians.

Where is the equipment buhari promised the army before 2015? God have mercy for this jungle state.
