Don't get mad at Igbos because Igbo women are beautiful unlike your ugly adaka-looking yoruba women. lol

sjeezy8:
binis will be a distant memory some time down the line see its already started- Edo peeps with yoruba names you'll never find a yoruba person with a bini name.

honeric01, i hope now you see how these you-robbers are, very suppressive people i hope you people never enter a country with them. your people with suffer dearly by these abusive tribalists.

Prior to 1967 and the creation of the States,[b] Lagos comprised of just the island of Eko. The word Eko means ‘wartime camp' in the local language, Bini. [/b]Available evidence suggests that the earliest known settlers of the region were the Aworis, whose primary preoccupation consisted of hunting and fishing. These people appear to have landed on the shores at Ebute-Metta, migrating to Eko from Ile-Ife in batches over a protracted period of time. Other tribes began to arrive in the region, the first of them being a substantial number of Benin warriors. They were followed by members of the Yoruba tribes, who had initially settled on the mainland and later fled to the islands of Iddo and Eko, seeking protection from wandering marauders constantly attacking Yorubaland.

Recent migrations to Lagos began in 1851 with the abolition of the inhuman practice of slave trade. Repatriates began arriving in large numbers. The first of them were members of the Saro tribe, who had been held captive in Yoruba itself. They were set free, along with their descendents, along the shores of Sierra Leone and were soon returning to their beloved homeland in successive batches. Most of these returnees had benefited from the influence of Christianity and western culture and, consequently, were able to utilize their skills and experience to educate their countrymen and modernize their country. Specific regions in the Olowogbowo and Breadfruit areas of the island were set aside for them to settle and develop.

Lagos experienced another wave of migrants returning home in the middle of the 19 th century. These were the Aguda from Brazil and the majority were skilled craftsmen – builders, masons, carpenters, etc. – who brought with them the typical Brazilian flavor in architectural styles. They were resettled in the Bamgbose and Campos Square localities and the magnificent buildings in the area reflect the background of its inhabitants.

There are two other major groups of people in the State of Lagos. The first is the Ogu, who are settled in the Badagry area and its surroundings. The second is the Ijebu, who are settled in Ikorodu and the Epe Local Government area.

According to tradition, the Ogu are believed to have migrated here from the ancient land of the Ketu Kingdom – originally a part of the Oduduwa Kingdom. They migrated to Accra in Gold Coast from Ile-Ife during the middle of the 13 th century. They are closely related to the Ga/Ewe (Aja-Ogu) speaking people of modern Ghana.

The traditional form of Monarchy (Wheno-Aholu) and governance in the locality of Badagry has an interesting history that goes back for centuries. The ancient town is divided into eight quarters namely: Jegba, Ahoriko Awhanjigoh, Boekoh, Wharakoh, Pesuka and Ganho and its adjoining villages on both the mainland and island. These areas have traditionally accepted the Kingship – Wheno Aholu Akran – of Badagry, right down to the present Akran, Menu Toyi I. He is the 17 th in succession and was crowned in 1977.

Badagry was initially known as Gbagle, which is a shortened form of the word Ogbaglee that is translated in Ogu as “a farmland near the swamp”. The term ‘Ogu' is very often wrongly spelt and pronounced as ‘Egun'. The town of Badagry has the distinction of having the first multi-storied building in Nigeria. It was built in 1845 and still remains standing on its original site.

The Ijebu population is settled in the Local Government area Epe and Ikorodu. Though their heritage is common to that of their blood relations in the modern state of Ogun, their commercial activities have brought them into close contact with the Nigerian riverine communities that are scattered all along the creeks and lagoons that finally lead to the Atlantic Ocean. This interaction has had a strong influence on the social and cultural fabric of the people. The cunning manipulation of the British resulted in the annexation of all the principal towns and other urban settlements of the two areas into the “colony” by the turn of the last century. With the amalgamation of 1914, the British succeeded in merging Ikorodu with the protectorate.

tpiah:
same reason why ibibios are not igbo.

ok, still waiting for ur point.

tpiah:
another irony.






last time i checked, dora akunyuli is igbo. So is soludo.

as per the rest of your post,  is ogun state also marginalized since bankole complained about the lack of federal presence there.

what about the other non-eastern nigerian states who can say the same.

Im still waiting for your point 

sjeezy8:
who jumped in tho convo and didnt know wtf was being discussed.

You mad because im stating the facts and you know im right omo.

Oh yeah and Odetola is known to be a thief even by your own people( the yorubas)  .

And about the kidnapping thing theres a lot of wealthy people in the East so why wouldnt the ones who arent wealthy try to kidnap them? lol. Use your brain.

sjeezy8:
If igbo states are wealthier in Nigeria then why the cause for kidnapping and crime in SE and the call for biafra?
You said it yourself that kidnapping in the SE is due to unemployment in the SE cause by the governement ignoring the SE.

If igbos are the wealthiest in Nigeria doesnt that mean they are the only ones benefitting from Nigerias structure?

I mean thats just common sense you cant complain about Nigeria margnilizaing igbo and the next minute say igbos are the wealthiest in Nigeria. which one is it?

Wrong the Igbo man/woman's hard work as an individual has nothing to do with the government of nigeria. However, when revenue,appontments, and federal structure is not appoint out to the SE as the other zones then that is what you call marginalization. Use your brain.

Nchara:
Igbos are the least affected by poverty. That has been shown over and over again. There are just about a few wealthy Nigerians and that is spread all over. Most wealthy Yoruba and hausa got to be wealthy from stolen, corrupt money.

Gbam!

seanet02:

seanet02:
@chz, if Nigeria is to fall into three, i will walk with confidence on lagos streets while you dude needs a VISA to enter here as we need no kidnappers in our area.

Stop claiming Lagos you know your not from lagos you Infidel. And thats exactly how you non-lagosian yoruba armed robbers keep disgracing lagos   


                                                                             STAY OUT OF LAGOS!!!!!!

seanet02:
Lowest poverty rate yet highest crime rate. Dude you inspire crooks in isolated jungles

Sorry infidel. Not the highest crime rate, maybe kidnapping just like armed robbery for you criminals. Get your facts straight Infidel . 1 for the East 0 for the west lol.

Even your footnote "odua Republic is nonnegotiable" supports what i said lol. i guess Baba Awo-lahoe really was the reason why your people are suffering in the beloved Naija(Marginalization ). lol.  No wonder your people kill their relatives and use their body parts for juju

NO MY BOY YOU ARE THE REAL slowpoke. LMAO

seanet02:
@chz, yeah you talk crumbs but whose fault it is OJUKWU and ZIK. They fail to provide you with good and qualitative education. What they left for you is kidnapping and militancy. Which part of Nigeria claims marginalisation all the time answer EAST PERIOD!!!!!!!!!!!!

Check the reason the sissy OPC was started and then keep talking  . And one Awo-ahoe left for yall was armed robberies and political assasinations  .

Im still trying to figure out how after Awo-ahoe finish stealing all of the Igbos moneys from their account and after you people the "highest" education like yall claim, the EAST still has the lowest poverty rate in the whole country PERIOD!!!!!!  


                                                                                                   INFIDEL

seanet02:

9jaganja:
Ask the Oba of Benin,  He doesn't speak Yoruba does he? NO. But does his people have ancestral and historical ties with your mainstream Yoruba? Yes!! I won't explain nothing to you and your Zombies here. No where did I use my friend say story. I know a primary source from someone I see everytime who happens to be Ewe, you are reading wiki and other sites. I have lived and worshiped our ancestors with Egun people, you post sites that doesn't prove me wrong. And I see you have no first hand experience with the Egun people. I will resign now since it seems you like analyzing people's post in your favour. Your ego must be hurting everytime someone proves you wrong or disagrees with you. I agree with you now don't cry,


@the zombies

Get a life. Say whatever to insult a people especially you ohshitshit.

Didnt you say that being yoruba is not only based on language but on history too?? so now your changing your story again.So why are Binis not "Yoruba" since yall have "historical ties"? Funny (laughing in Egun)  

This is the change they need, Hope he has tight security

Cabal, godfathers in PDP to go next month –Nwodo[/size]

By CHIDI OBINECHE
Tuesday, August 3, 2010


National Chairman of the Peoples Democratic Party(PDP), Dr. Okwesilieze Nwodo, took his message of change in the party several octaves high on Sunday night when he threatened to disgrace those who still bring “Ghana-must-go bags” to him. He also warned PDP governors and other aspirants for political offices to stop visiting him in his house.

He spoke to an elite gathering of party chieftains and editors in Lagos on his 40th day anniversary in office.
Nwodo, who was agitated, spoke with revolutionary fervour. He said: “In spite of my directives on my inaugural day that people should not bring “Ghana-must-go” bags to our office, they are still doing that. Anyone, who tries it again, I’ll disgrace him publicly.

“I have told our governors not to come to my house. If they want to see me, let them come to the office. Aspirants should not come again to the secretariat. Let them go and campaign, win the people’s hearts. Our primary elections’ll be transparent. You don’t need to see anybody, and nobody will change your result,” he said.
Unveiling his new agenda for change, Nwodo, who was National Secretary of the party for three years, said a mini-convention is being planned for next month to give bite to the new vision and “remove the last vestiges of the cabal” that has made it impossible for the best materials to fly the banner of the party.

He regretted that a few people have held the party and country to ransom over the years, despite the lofty dreams of the founding fathers.
Affirming his burning desire to get the party back on track in the best traditions of democracy, he spoke of far-reaching plans to halt the image of a “winning machine” which it has earned for itself, saying: “We won elections, but not the hearts of the people.

“We now want to win their hearts – no more a winning machine, and running civilian dictatorship.”
He said the envisaged reforms would be all-encompassing, beginning from the national secretariat with the soul aim of re-inventing the PDP.
“We want people to know the meaning of the colours of the party, its manifestos, and the umbrella symbol.
“We chose the colour white because this country has seen blood through colonialism and civil war. We want peace. We chose red because of the sacrifice of our leaders past, who fought and died for its unity.”

He warned that those basking in the magic of godfatherism, or use of national might to write results for them have missed it; advising all political office aspirants to work hard, campaign and win.
He lamented that the dream of making Nigeria a referral centre on health matters conceived in 1998 was aborted.
On the primacy of the party manifestos in the new scheme of things, Nwodo warned that nobody will fly the party’s banner again without reading and comprehending its manifestos.

“This is the covenant we have with the people. Time has gone when all those things happened. All they had was a mandate to line their pockets, to remain in office at whatever cost, and to settle their godfathers.
“We are working with experts to reform and update our manifestos, to make it workable. We have to make a change. There’s nothing absolutely impossible to do in this country. PDP has resolved to call upon courageous men and women, who can do it.”
Nwodo said plans were under way to embark on aggressive membership drive and on-line registration of faithful to advance the goals of inclusiveness and independence.

He said, “because elections were no longer competitive, attention was focused on how to get into the cabal and share the resources of our nation.
“No one can run this party anymore as a personal property, choosing, who to belong to the party and who will not.”
He said the membership registration fee of N1,200 and 5 per cent of the salaries of office holders were now compulsory to accelerate its financial leverage.
“Financial independence of the party will make it impossible for some people to control it. He who pays the piper dictates the tune. We will finance our candidates to a reasonable extent. We don’t want interferences by governments and moneybags.” Nwodo noted that the proposed constitution amendment next month will outlaw thuggery with a penalty of instant disqualification for aspirants found culpable.

He said that since President Goodluck Jonathan has vowed to deliver credible, free and fair elections next year, no stone would be left unturned in achieving it.
“The culture of indignity must go. If people do it elsewhere, why can’t we do it?
The slogan “power” had been cornered by godfathers and godmothers.”
He appealed to the media to assist in the new drive for a decent democratic culture, vowing to be willing to pay the supreme sacrifice in its pursuit.
“I took an oath in my church in Enugu before the blessed sacrament that a mustard seed must die for a new tree to grow. I offer my life, so that we can have great men to lead this country.”

[size=18pt] ‘New state may emerge October’
[/size]
Written by Kunle Oderemi, Lagos Monday, 02 August 2010



BARRING any last minute change by the authorities, new states may be announced on October 1, to coincide with the 50th independence anniversary of the country.

A source told the Nigerian Tribune in Lagos, at the weekend, that the thinking in official quarters was to make it a special gift for the agitators for new states on the historic date.

The source hinted that the plan was for President Goodluck Jonathan to announce the new states in his national broadcast to mark the independence anniversary.

But the source was silent on the level of collaboration of the presidency with the National Assembly, which had received hordes of memoranda for new states.

There was also no clue on the number of states that might be created, though the authorities had said the whole exercise would be based on merit.

About 25 requests for new states had been tabled before the National Assembly by various groups to replace the existing 36 state structure.

Some of the proposed states include Lagoon state from Lagos; Oke-Ogun from Oyo; Oduduwa from Osun and Savannah from Borno.

It will be recalled that the Senate President, David Mark, recently promised the creation of new states in line with the yearnings of the people.

sjeezy8:
If igbos want their own country GREAT - They arent the only ones theres people who want Arewa republic, Niger delta republic and Oduduwa republic- I dont hear people from those regions abusing other tribes or zones- Its only igbo people so obviously you guys have a problem.

you guys are funny sha  always talking about how biafra lost and blaming yoruba people as if all yorubas joined the army OR AGREED WITH THE WAR. Incase you guys didnt know the Nigerian army is an Army it may be dominated by ethnic groups but none the less Nigeerian army comprises of hausas, fulanis, kanuri, yorubas, edos, ijaws, urhobos, christians and muslims are in it. so get off yoruba peoples nut.ts

So obviously you clowns need to learn how not to equate everything in Nigeria with ethnicity, If the Oduduwa republic, Arewa republic and Niger delta republic can do it so can you people.

Point blank. Igbos dont care about the yorubas. Whatever yall want to do with ur people do it, thats your business( with an Igbo accent) .

philip0906:
^^
wat is dis one trying 2 say? d'u know d prof and d conversation dat went btw d both of 'em?

Gbam! exactly

sjeezy8:
its not us that will go crazy cause most yorubas dont even know or care about what hapen back then.

It was actually an igbo girl who was going all crazy about how yorubas backstabbed inigbos or whatever when an igbo associate of mine who posted some articles on facebook about biafra.-  I dont care about biafra- niggu and never heard of it before 1 year ago lol

Its igbo people who have their parents pass down all types of malarkey stories and lies about yoruba people and such
- Yorubas dont hear shiot about biafra nikku.

its you guy who keep reminding ever damn body. WE DONT CARE SON- yall cool lol hahaha

Igbos dont care about yorubas.lol. Nobody is concerned about yall. Its not beef about yorubas its the igbos wanting their own country so what r u talking about? lol

Ileke-IdI:
Interesting. But nah, I wouldnt know.

BTW, I met an Igbo lady at this thing up North yest. She was so sweet, nice and motherly. . . . I wonder if she's a closet tribalist. Do you think so?

Every Nigerian is.

@ 9jaganja

Because together we are economically powerful. We can be a nation of nations like someone said. If Igbos want to leave or any other tribe, they should be able to but not with the animosity some secessionists are showing here. It will be brutal. If we unite then peacefully divide, it's better than the way the separatists want it.

Individually you ar powerfully as well economically too and there is peace amongst african brothers by the use of respect and trade. You cant tell me that this wouldnt work better. No more tug of war between who owns what and this tribe is steeling out resources. and y should the separation be brutal? also the ideology of bring unity has been tried for along time and still hasnt been reach. the tribes just dont get along and trust each other and on top of that the country is corrupt and too big. So again, what is wrong with each region going its way and trading amongst each other for whatever is need?
