Peacemaker5128:
Saraki in not coming back to Senate
Save this post

I will save this post for people who care much about you because by the time @Saraki returns back to the senate WITHOUT stress, you might have committed suicide.

All these chickens brought together cannot defeat Saraki's boys, not to talk of Saraki himself. Before primaries, their noise was overwhelming and all over the place, now, it is fading away gradually.

It doesn't matter any longer. This rerun is no longer about personality, it's drawn along party lines.
APC is going. Osun people need a change of government. An illiterate will do it better than someone who owes 3-year salary

Put all of them together as one candidate against President Buhari come 2019, they can't defeat him.

Check the result from 1959 when the first general election was held in Nigeria to elect Nigerians till 2015 during the last general election. The North has always decided the election.


So sit there and speak grammars on social media from morning till night about who becomes Nigerian President while the North goes out to vote enmassed for their choice of candidate

Bekwarra:
5. Ijora/Orile
I grouped these two together due to proximity. Ijora I can say categorically has the highest number of brothels in Lagos state. It is a slum where people live in squalor and poverty. The abode of all sorts of society rejects. Wherever you see brothels, then you know all sort of criminals abound there from armed robbers to fraudsters and drug addicts. A trip to Ijora might save me the stress of trying to describe an area of chaos and sodomy. Not that every other person you see in Ijora is bad, there are good people in some parts but the huge slum on the swamps and the dump sites along Orile are something else. At times you might want to think there's no government presence there. Light robberies, bag-snatching, drug peddling etc are the order of the day. Ijora, Badia, Orile are not for gentlemen.

4. Oshodi
I don't think Oshodi need introduction to any Lagosian. If you don't know Oshodi, then you don't know Lagos. Arguably the busiest bus stop in Lagos with inter state parks scattered everywhere. Oshodi is so notorious and despite Babatunde Fashola's best efforts to sanitize it, it still retains its notoriety. London Boys and Railway Line guys are still holding it by the jugular. The de facto emperor of Oshodi Musiliu Akinsanya AKA MC Oluomo is still holding sway with occasional gun battles for the soul of the NURTW cash cow by the different factions. The Railway Boys and London Boys are perennially at loggerheads. There are scammers, fraudsters, pick pockets and bag snatchers everywhere. When you are in Oshodi, always hold your pockets or bag firmly. Never allow a stranger you don't know hug you or get too close to you. Don't stop to talk to anyone claiming he just returned from Cotonou with good and looking for direction. Enough said for now.

3. Ajegunle
Twale 23million times. Is there anyone in Lagos that has never heard of Ajegunle? Chai! I still have a girl in Boundary sha *licks lips*. I respect Ajegunle a lot when it comes to being notorious. All crimes I mean all crimes you can think of as far as Lagos state is concerned are situated in that slum called Ajegunle. Apart from producing some of the best musicians Nigeria has ever known and some of the craziest lyrics and dance moves, Ajegunle also has many ugly side including but not limited to prostitution, drug-peddling and abuse, fraud, scam, thievery, vandalism, robbery, kidnapping etc. A real definiton of a slum and a ghetto.

2. Mushin
Well, I grew up here and I can rant about Mushin for the whole day. Mushin is notorious to a fault. In fact when you tell anybody that you are from Mushin, their countenance changes immediately. Mushin strikes fear into the heart of many people. Too much of everything chai! In fact some people find it hard to believe their are actually cool peeps in Mushin despite the fact that there are some totally perfect gentlemen. Mushin is so blessed with some rough neighbourhoods that will make even angels shiver with fear. Idi Araba, Morgan, Kekere-owo, Olushoga (OPC), Oloruntosin, Idi Oro, Ojuwoye, Moshalasi, Oju Ina, Wey, Akala, Olateju, Olorunsogo, Ile Epo Isale, Itire, Ladipo, Alasalatu, Alhaji Otta etc. These areas are just too notorious and not for gentlemen. You can't just walk through them anyhow. Robbery, fights, scam, fraud are in abundance. There was a time that hardly will a day go by without you hearing gunshots. If you are a policeman and you are posted to Mushin, go and beg the police service commission. Cultism is a thing of pride and most guys are engaged in it. It is so rampant that it is gradually becoming an identity. There are robbers, scammers, gangsters, fraudsters, kidnappers everywhere. You might not know your neighbour whose room precedes yours is an armed robber. You might not know that guy who plays the keyboard in church is Aiye Number One. Mooshine City is something else. God will one day deliver Mushin from Baba Alado guys, Idi Araba guys, Moshalashi guys and Ojuwoye guys. I miss that place though.

1. Island
Personally I think this is the only place that can trump Mushin in the whole of Lagos state. Lagos Island popularly called Isale Eko has been notorious since the 60s. They have the most vicious gang battles, they engage in fraud, they do forgery (Oluwole things), they are scammers, they "wash" currencies, they rob, they process travelling documents etc. Do you know how much they collect before containers can be offloaded. It's only in Eko that you'll see guys with singlets, dirty jean trousers, WHITE dunlop slippers and a chain worth hundreds of thousands of naira on their necks. SMH! They are the omo onile, they sell lands as if God is their biological father, they disturb developers, they can kill at the slightest provocation and they have real "instruments". English toh bad.

Mr Man, I would have agreed with your own rating with the exclusion of Ajegunle of today but i think you still have a proper rating. Ajegunle of today is x3 peaceful than other areas you've mentioned. Old Ghetto area of Ajegunle is known for this rating

i agree with the list but in a reverse order
Ilorin
Abuja
Enugu

This is abject persecution. if throughly Saraki is guilty of this offence, he should be given a fair hearing under a fair Justice and court and not like Justice Umar and this CCT court
