EUROBOMBER:
It will not stop some of us from trying our very best to ask for peace. We will bend low to do it and leave the rest to God.

StBlack1:
Ichidido, you are only talking rotten beans. Can you even face me if I challenge you even in Ibo-populated areas in Lagos?

Running your mouth wont do any magic. [s]Why not ask your brothers why they fled for the fear of June 12 before spitting rotten beans here? Why didnt they stand and fight Yorubas in Lagos?[/s]

I CAN BET IT you will be nowhere to be found on this forum when the ridicule against your vain boasts of a face-off against Yorubas hits the highs.

jumper524:
hausa and yoruba=peace
hausa and igbo= tribalism
yoruba and igbo=fight
igbo and the two= hatered. So who's the problem here?

StBlack1:
This nails it on the point. You are wise Bro.

Curtailing the political ambitions of Ibos in Lagos by removing them from sensitive positions will do the job of ensuring a peaceful coexistence as you'v said. In addition, instituting a regional policy of ''..can vote BUT cant be voted for..'' against non-Yorubas in SouthWest will sum up a great move that will correct the situation on ground. I also dont wish for unnecessary hostilities against hosts in Yorubaland. Yorubas are peaceful and we still want to keep that pride.

ChinemeOkpan:
The Oba has a right to give instructions out to his subjects.

[s]The Ndigbo community in Lagos are his subjects and he has spoken[/s]

Long live Oba of Lagos

MzJackBaueress:
Mr. Ambode, the statement by Oba Akiolu has caused so much damage already.

The Igbos are yet to forget the deportation saga by Fashola,then this disgusting statement by Oba Akiolu?

Just pray you win the election. If you don't, hold Oba Akiolu responsible for your loss to Jimi Agbaje.

MzJackBaueress:
This issue is becoming a serious one.

Too bad!

profGinger:
Oba has indirectly campaign for JIMI,my ibo brothers pls dust your pvc and vote for PDP we ibos can't be cajoled after repatriating our brothers back to head bridge. It seem this APC will be worst than PDP.

PDP propaganda, this Oba will never make such a statement carelessly.

Ofei land houses 90% of all industries in Nigeria, 55% of all economic activities in Nigeria takes place in just 2 states of Ofei land - Lagos and Ogun. The only viable port in your country is in Ofei land. Heck Ofei people can even decide to throw you all into poverty and mystery if they wish- imagine blockading the port for just day- the land of the importers and exporters will simply go into extinction Ofei people controls Naija, they know it. Thats why they take your threats with a pinch of salt..... without their land yall gonna die of hunger.

huptin:
so when all the igbos ran away, did that stop Yorubas from getting the presidency for 2 terms? And they waited for just 5 years b4 installing another vice president and of course another Yoruba man is just about to get the senate president seat. Isnt that better than losing millions of your own people in a stupid war and never to taste the presidency again?

SegzyJoe:
Interesting, Igbos are flexing their muscle in Yorubaland. How could a people be so politically naive? They must really be thinking their population could determine the outcome of guber election Lagos. No wonder they thought their weight will determine the outcome of the presidential election. Even after their gross political and strategic miscalculation over GEJ, they are still embarking on another trip to failure.

They are so naive to the extent that even, if their weight in Lagos could determine the outcome in favour of Jimi Agbaje, what would be the fall out of traveling such a path among their host population of Yoruba people in Lagos. It is only Igbos that think this way, Hausa or Yoruba will never choose a path hostile to their host community. There is a strategic error in Igbo political thinking for them to think that being antagonistic to your host population is a path to victory. Even, if such victory is assured at the polls, it is not a victory at all, because hostility of the host community will be detrimental to Igbo business interest in Lagos. It is like winning against your boss or against your landlord. Anybody that consider winning against his boss or landlord a thing of fun is naive to say the least.

The question again is , why must Igbo be embarking on a path that will put their strategic interest in jeopardy? Is hatred for Yorubas or rivalry. Sincerely, I am a Yoruba, and I have never seen Igbo as competitors because all my friends are Igbos, but when it comes to politics, I always see a different line of thought which I will say is highly not strategic and emotional. I have even heard arguments, how Igbo population is more than Yorubas in Lagos State and how Igbos owned Lagos, yet during the ensuing crisis after June 12 1993, more than 80% of Igbo population ran away for Yam festival. It so so funny. I hope Igbo political strategist will chart a new political path that will not compromise the interest of their kinsmen in political landscape called Nigeria, as they just done in 2015 presidential elections.

ccollins:
am an igbo but what you said is very disgraceful and shows you are a tribal hooligan or some frivolous noise-maker.. Go , read and think about power in unity of Nigeria and other countries alike.. Why division Is it every persons in nigeria that benefit from oil proceeds.. The amnesty contracts from oil awarded to touts and miscreats in Niger-delta and also the collosuss amount of money being awarded from oil companies and refineries.. Has that changed the life of an average Niger-delta person for better. Solve corruption and I see other problems of Nigeria as one - nation dying instantly.. This is a spontaneous cure to the madness raging over nigeria for several years.. [s]Even in powesful countries like U.S.A , there are many different tribes culture and languages.. Yet they still derive strength, sovereignty and an envy of the world in their UNITY[/s] Does it mean every where in USA produces oil??!!!! Use your head and stop being hateful.. Nigeria has been existing for more than 100 yrs and you just want a deadly miracle of secessionHmmm.. Thank you very much

All the people you mentioned above are all greedy folks.Do they even like theirselves? Onye obuna n'ezu ori ga balia ulu! Shame to all of them!

EggovinMma:
Nna God bless you for saying the truth. All the igbos I begged in my Area in abuja to vote buhari are now regretting. Right now, some are avoiding me like plague. I know that's shame. Peter obi is a bastard who betrayed nd igbo for selfish gain. He wants to be a minister, now where is jona? He should Bury his head in shame! Chris Ngige, a known wise and good man was rejected based on his party and not his personality. I am really not happy about this. Since a lot of them here on NL is still claiming they have no regrets,wetin person won do? You will see how massively the Yorubas and hausas will fix up thier indigenes soon.

abduljabbar8:
They should drink their oyel

sleeknick:
aAnu mpama i came to research on the ibo mentality, and so far i have not found anything worth appraising...even if you eventually get what you want, your selfishness and greed wont let your biafra last long before it splits to something else.

be wise my brother...

Scatterboss:
Chest beaters everyWhere. When am bored, i rush to nairaland to laugh my ass out. Ahahahahsha

KingsleyTMTTM:
[s]am an igbo, and i think they should jail whosoever own and operate that channel.
we igbo are a bunch of comedians and any matured igbo still expecting biafra is the dumbest human.
they said PRES.GEJ is their brother yet on that election day a lot of them did not vote, they are claiming to be biafra and yet you expect your brother to win, we igbos I'm laughing at us in igbo language.
do we really expect at this age and time a pot belly igbo importer will leave his monthly millions he is making in Nigeria and join your biafra dream, sorry ooh
but i know my fellow igbo if you are not talking egò you are talking arant-nonsense[/s]

eCollynzo:
Isidaehomen Nicholas, concenterate on your studies at Abia poly and stop dabbling into matters that do not concern you. Those guys aren't as far as you think.
Mind your business and stop playing with fire.
