soma042: Always united to confront our common enemies that's the blood in us, and thats why we were able to fight Nigeria and the western power for 3yrs . So help me tell your evil fashola not to dare us he can go ahead to deport ogun and the rest of Yorubas from Lagos we don give a phucky

3 years for what? How is 2 years 6 months and 9 days equal to 3 years? In any case the war events were dictated by the Nigerian Government, so they gave you lots of rest time and time to come to common sense! Be that as it may, it is history now. What is important going forward is to occupy your state, not a foreign state you are no longer welcome for we don't want ingrates, people who cannot obey our laws and respect our culture and leaders.

Roseey0: I don't care what and what Fashola has done or will do for ndigbo. That particular act was wrong. If he knew he was right, why drop them off by 3am,its only a thief that operate by that time. Besides, its head bridge peter obi's office?

You people should stop justifying nonsense.

WE don't care to have you in Lagos or any SW state anymore! We don't want ingrates in our states. You will leave by force or willingly, we don't care, JUST LEAVE!

remark D: The $tu|pid lies you lot tell yourselves is alarming...

Hear yourself "... our hospitality for cowardice..."

I mean what else could be more re-tar-ded than that? instead of saying that you believe that selling land to an Igbo man = hospitality; and that (Nigerians) defining a Yoruba man for what he is makes you mad... you end up making absolutely no sense.

and telling more lies on top of that...

anyways, what I really wanted to tell you is that it is not today that the Igbos know that you yorubas will stab them in the back in a blink of an eye....
so they aint gonna give you any chance to do that, okay?

so as you spread your "good news" to you loser friends, include that no Igbo man trusts a Yoruba man even with his tongue notorized.

coward modda4kers

No need for the long story, it was not by force you came on your own, now the owners are beginning to clamour openly that they don't want you anymore. It is their prerogative to decide who they want or not. The lands legally bought are actually leases that expire after a number of years and it reverts back to the government, held in custody by the governor. The choice that you must leave has been made and it is just a matter of time. The Ghana must go saga did not happen the actual decision was made.

PHIPEX:





A simple apology can end all these but everyone is allowing ego and sentiments create more cracks in our relationships.

No relationship for a disrespectful guest. If you cannot live by our laws and leadership that we trust, please go quickly and never come back!

Nonsensical article! Poor and un-researched! Was it not the ibos that were happiest when Northerners were taken back to the north? Same thing when Yorubas were re-integrated back with their families? Is that thread not on NL because it is! Well, here is the simple 123: Lagos has laws that do not respect people, even it's own people for those laws were made by the generality of the people! If you don't obey our laws, you will be punished even if you were just roaming the streets without anything to do! It might not be a crime to be a beggar, but we need to increase the quality of our environment, orderliness and so you have to be removed back to where you came from! Now if the people in this case think its because of their tribe, my question is why hasn't everyone in your tribe been removed? If we wanted you to leave we will announce it, Ghana must go anyone??

If Ngige will bring Anambra to a Lagos and SW progressive state that makes you troop there in millions and you reject him at the polls, why should the progressive people in Lagos or the SW care? Who will suffer? It is obvious that one of the reasons people will not go to a part of the world is economic and racism/tribalism!

Russia is one of the most racist countries in the world, most people will probably move to the US where you will more likely not be attacked by skinheads in the bus in broad daylight. Tribalism and racism are the same concepts, the Russia of Nigeria, east of Europe is Iboland, also East and most non-SE people would rather move to the SW or even north.

jjcbuthot:

And who loses in such war? The Igbos of course...

That market should be pulled down and rebuilt to meet international standard so sane people can do business there.

We must do the same in Alaba - we should pull down and rebuild the market to give it the look it deserves.

When we rebuild these markets, no petty fake goods sellers will be allowed near the market.

Babaloja will be appointed for each of the markets and we dont want to see anybody wearing dirty red cap around the market place.

I don't still get the argument of the ibos. Can the Mushin LGA, Oba and Babaloja make the announcement one more time and action should be taken immediately: 1. Read our laws, ignorance is no excuse 2. If you cannot abide by the law that states no foreigner black or white can be Babaloja (or any State down to the smallest units of governance or leadership in the SW except your own small company) except a Yoruba (verified to the past 5 generations) LEAVE immediately from our lands and take everything you legally own with you and never come back, we don't want such people 4. Even if you own all the money on this planet and we all had 0 naira, you cannot and will never be Babaloja or government leader at any point for our people, resources, leadership etc are not for sale!

Again, if you don't like or obey these laws, LEAVE for it is our right and duty to enforce our laws!

dinachi: No matter how much you play regional politics, a time will come when you need to come to the center. Tinubu is no fool.Why do you think he opted for APC? It is simple, there are certain kinds of achievements and development you cannot attract until you come to the center.Regional politics only worked in the sixties! That is the ingredients many of our people like you fail to understand.The North understands it that is why they are clamoring for it, the South South understands it that is why they want to hold on to it , the South West understands it that is why they merged into APC, we the Igbos need to understand it to remain relevant. Any way congrats to Soludo, my allegiance is to Chris Ngige. As has been proven before, mere certificates and academic excellence do not translate to good leadership. Sen Chris Ngige has performed excellently before, if not for the respect Igbos have for Ojukwu, Ngige would have won the election in 2010. Even then, he still beat Soludo to third place by a wide margin.

Very plausible! A tried and rested hand Ngige is way better than a guess work Soludo. At the end of the day, the people will vote who they want or the riggers will rig themselves in!

Goddex: Why is Fashola running from pillar to post taking pictures with Igbo men just to save face? He should simply apologise to Anambra state and Ndigbo generally.

Apologize to who? For what? I bet KAI are picking up more people to be deported as we speak! The only apology is for helping you people and kindly leave and go back as we will never change our laws or traditions or allow the continuos desecration of our lands and heritage by anyone ibos or not. If the law is too heavy for you, go back home where there is no law and you can do as you please!

Awake9ja: what is wrong with the yorubas?
by the way am not ibo but the truth must be said for Gods sake.

what kind of hatred is this? why is so much envy and hate about a particular tribe going on in the life of Fulani,yoruba and hausas.

sincerely speaking yorubas has beginning to irritate me like hausas.
a group that invest so much to develop your land only for you to turn around and stab them deeply.

You don't get it, do you? Ibos or anyone does not go to a foreign land to generously develop it at least if they are sane mentally! It is this misconception that is so rife in the mentality of some ibos and it is wrong but ignorance is no excuse. It is because a place presents desirable economic benefits for the business owner that he creates and invests in a business! If he needed a 100 storey building for the business and he buys the land (lands are no permanent property and reverts back to the government after 70 years or is it 100 not sure), has he done the land a favor? No! If there is a better place to go other than the SW, a business man will invest there! Get it? If anyone is doing any a favor, it is your hosts the Yoruba SW and never the other way round.

billante: You know this will turn political and you went ahead to deported them very close to the election, why didn't u wait until after the election!

The deed has been done and it has affected Ngige chances at the election, no amount of your coloration and fence mending explanations can repair the damage.

Another time think before acting.

How does not voting a potentially better leader for your state, your own house affect Governor Fashola? Who will suffer from mediocre or bad governance? Is it because Ngige is in the same party? You Ibos can be very funny for now you are advising that your leaders be hypocrites by doing things for political gains or not do it because it may cost them politically! If you like cut off your nose to spite your face, it is your problem! The South West leaders will always make decisions in the interest of their people, their lands and their heritage FIRST! There is no apology or approval seeking from any guests on the land, if guests don't like it let them leave immediately!

Yungwizzzy: we are been persecuted in the north, now west God pls help your children


if you believe that BIAFRA is still the solution to all this click something

Obeying the laws and respecting the culture of your host is NON NEGOTIABLE! If you cannot, it is better to move to Biafra where the solution to your problems lie. I am sure no host will be upset for a guest who leaves because they would rather disrespect the host or not follow his rules. It is really that simple.

Did you say he wrote a letter to the retardeen president, his buddy? So that he can do what? How will the most non-performant governor and non-performant president (at the same time, within a couple of years) look to one of the most forward looking, brightest and most capable administrators in Modern Nigeria in the eye? Anyway, I hope the South Westerners learn a lesson not just for now alone but also for the future!

Texas.Cowgirl:
You kuku just want to let us know that you're a software developer Back pain ko, crotch pain ni

Anywaz, are you in the USA? Send me a few internship ideas

I am not a software developer, take it a few notches higher How about software engineer, architect, master?? How do you mean internship ideas? What year are you now in Uni? I have two cousin in Texas sef, A & M things!

Blackteeth: Mtchewww. The pros never complain of back pain before you talk about lazy programmers on Nairaland getting back pain.
Next time dont program with a kitchen stool.

Very funny! LMAO! Wait until back pain gets hold of you!

bknight: Funny IT related pains. And that one of ur shoulder as a result of carrying laptop bag. I stopped carry those laptop bags but yrs on my shoulder still aches

I read about a developer who said later in his years after about 20 years of work mostly in software development, the pains were so unbearable, he had to get extensive medical help! Cost? About $ 20,000!

webdezzi: the edge of your bed can prove to be more ergonomic than you think.
av been doing it for years now. I get tired of sitting up for long.

Head of the bed, how? How are you going to sit at the edge of the bed looking at MacBook, 2 big monitors (24+ inches), writing, reading, mousing and snacking??

Decryptor: Why should you sit for hours at end because of your job? Abi na software to detect the identity of terrorists you dey work on? *just kidding*
Whatever you do, try to take breaks by walking around after about an hour. This is important so as to exercise both ur hands, legs, waist and even ur eyes.
I know what i'm saying cos sometimes when i sit down working on web projects, i experience the same but taking breaks and pauses eliminates those joint cramps.

Oga, na soooo! I go dey try rest but I am in crunch time now so there's a lot of work I need to get done really quick! I am the principal developer on a couple of projects and if I must be able to objectively and fairly question the progress or quality of work of any other developer, then I need to demonstrated that leadership by exceeding the standard requirements which means lots of hours!

Seun: Can you upload a picture of your current office desk and chair? It may be that they are just expensive for nothing.

I think a good chair should provide firm support for your lower back when you sit on it.

Each one of the executive chairs we bought for every programmer in my business has a special adjustable pad in the lower back area as well as an S-shape that mimics the natural shape of your spine.

Yes, lumbar support and a headrest is what I think I have been missing mostly. After really re-appraising the situation, I think the pains are caused by the un-ergonomic, unsupportive chair I use when I work at home. I had not been doing a lot of project work at home until recently and that is when I actually noticed the problem. My office makes every effort to get developers almost anything required to work and they changed all our chairs just about 2 months ago. Well with the increasing pain, I had to change my home chair immediately and I researched to find what good alternatives were and after reading reviews, I settled for the Markus! I think the pain has reduced since Sunday as I have stopped using the chair that wanted to break my back systematically! There are other chairs, way more expensive like $800 but they also had mixed reviews! So, I thought it better to start with the Markus and if there is no improvement in 40 days, I will just return it and buy another one or exchange it for another one. Here is Markus, the chair that is not only keeping me company now but helping to keep my back happy!
