Lol, where did I say nobody has ever said Lagos is no man's land on this thread?

I bet hits on "Lagos is no man's land" from this thread made today will occupy up to a page of that link you posted yet not one person has said "Lagos is no man's land" today in the context you're alluding, multiply it across Nairaland and you see this your big reveal is just hot dung. In fact, if you check the link all 20 pages of that search term were made in the last two days when the whole "Lagos is no man's land" conversation has been at its peak.

Like I said, your big reveal is one of the worst uses of data I've seen on this thread...if you don't believe me take time to scan through the BS link you posted.

https://www.nairaland.com/search?q=Lagos+no+man%27s+land&search=Search

I'm sure if you check the link after I make this post you'd see my comment there and that's what's forming your big reveal on Igbo's saying Lagos is no man's land...change your ways young man cheesy
Dude, the build up to the No Man's Land being parroted didn't begin today. The violence of the elections didn't take place today. Filtering your search beam to today alone is being disingenuous.

Again, overtly or covertly through 'likes' and playing blind, stop edging on people who trigger whole groups of people with such comments. It makes you just as guilty.

Maybe the indigenous ethnics of Lagos are nicer. Calabar was an FCT for a few months before it was moved to Lagos. Try calling or insinuating Calabar is a no man's land and you'd be decapitated there and then on the streets. Not beaten - decapitated. Ask King-Tom to explain how Calabar South boys (the Efiks) would react.
Calabar is a multicultural mix too like Lagos.

If you won't take it - don't dish it.

Another response. I don't need to live in Lagos. I was born in and raised in Lagos, and visit when necessary. You aren't the custodian of Lagos.

Is this the part where you lots visit my Facebook account to post details because I called you out for enabling those who trigger others by calling Lagos a no man's land?

Don't go through the hassle - I'd post the information myself. smiley

Lol, your analogy is bullshit and stop pretending like you don't know it is. We've had pages upon pages arguing "lagos in no man's land" today and comments from this thread made today are part of your big reveal yet no one has today said "Lagos is no man's land" in the context you alluded today.

This "facts" of yours should rank as one of the worst uses of data I've seen on this thread.
Dude, you lied nobody on this thread has ever claimed Lagos is a no man's land. I brought evidence of Donjazet reiterating so and taunting those who think otherwise to cry him a river.

Even Izzou countered him there and then. Evidence Amoto and others have referenced over and over again. This was a few years ago. Not today.

Not to defend him but he was referring to replicating massively what Donald Duke did in Cross River with tourism in Akwa Ibom. Plans have already even begun for Ibom Carnival from the rumours I've heard, like the Calabar Carnival.

The Governor-elect is in the tourism sector. A hotelier with about 27 hotels spread across various states under the Royalty brand.

I'm not his biggest fan but what he said was deliberately misconstrued by the opposition that's why you'd see clips.
I'd have preferred two other candidates, the APC guy being one of them based on antecedence.

Comments from this thread are part of the link you posted and I'm sure no one has today said "Lagos is no man's land" on this thread... multiply arguments like the ones we've had on this thread across Nairaland and that forms the bulk of your "facts"?

Spy360:
Did people just wake up one morning and started declaring Lagos no man's land?

Or did they do so because GRV was contesting under LP? We know that GRV is a Lagosian and Sanwo Olu is not.

So why did the talk about Lagos being no man's land come up?

It was because APC thugs declared that those who are not from Lagos have no right to vote. Hat they have no right to exercise their franchise because they are not thorough Lagosians.

It was the same APC thugs that started using the language Lagos is not no man's land.
Let's be factual here. You should already know I don't do emotional reactions. There are at least 20 local search results pages on Nairaland of arguments being about Lagos being a no man's land, for and against it. 20 pages multiplied by 30 comments per page is 600 instances of back-and-forths about the topic. Please verify here: https://www.nairaland.com/search?q=Lagos+no+man%27s+land&search=Search .
And we haven't yet factored in hidden comments and the Nairaland Tsunami.

Local-search "Lagos no man's land" on Twitter and Facebook this minute, and you'd realize the proponents of that narrative are non-Yorubas from both the South South and South East. They happen to also form a significant part of Obi's support base as well as other candidates.

A relative few of such instances but it was repeated and re-echod over the years to get on the nerves. The extremists saw an opportunity but latched on to it.
Maybe we should have done more to quell the narrative. Maybe we ignored it and let the few voices become sparks and little fires. The extremists fueled that fire for political gain but they didn't light it.

I don't do emotions. I do facts!

So anybody blaming Obedients or LP supporters for the use of the language have actually fallen into the ethnocentric trap of the APC thugs unknowingly and many generally good Yoruba guys fell for it.

No body is dragging the Oba of Lagos with the Yorubas. It just a tribal slur invented by the APC thugs to discredit GRV and cause ethnic attack on non Yorubas especially Igbos.

Afterall the people that you are claiming are saying Lagos is no man's land actually supported the only true Lagosian in that election, while those claiming Lagos is not no man's land are fighting against the only true Lagosian in that election.
You do realize Obi, Tinubu and Atiku's supporters aren't monoethic support bases, right? They cut across. There are literally Yorubas on this thread who canvassed for Peter Obi more than Igbos, and on the wider social media.

Why do you ascribe my comment to being about Obidients? Man, I was "Obedient" - if you'd call me that - since 2018 and have posted my Nairaland comments backing up my claims - even when some where wishing ill of the man.

Don't make this about Obidients or the LP. This is about calling out erring people - a small fraction, even if they overlap as "my people".

You want the saner and liberal Yorubas to call out the hateful tribalists here? Then let's lead the way by calling out those amongst us who needlessly trigger people or fuel animosity with their disrespectful comments.


Again, two truths can exist:

- Anyone calling Lagos a no man's land or implicitly supporting it is a cretin, and;
- Any halfwit tacitly supporting the violence in Lagos and the hateful targeting of tribes has a blôwjob date with drugged piranhas.

DontBullshitMe:
So, if every resident of Lagos signs an affidavit declaring Lagos to be Yoruba or Awori land. What changes?

My point is : People accepting Lagos to be no man's land or otherwise changes nothing.

The fact that people are even congregating and making it a topic of discussion is funny to me. Honestly, it is like majoring in a minor issue.
Accept it to begin with for peace and respect's sake. Calling Lagos a "No man's land" is a devious attempt at erasing the identities and heritage of its indigenes. A man is nothing without his identity. He feels less without his roots.

There's a reason Black Americans and other displaced blacks from world over spend a lot on genealogy just for the satisfaction of knowing they have a source.


Two truths can exist:

- You can condemn the violence in Lagos, and;
- Outrightly condemn any attempts to erase the heritage of Lagos indigenes.

DontBullshitMe:
If I were a Lagosian, "Lagos is no man's land" statement can never be offensive to me though.

It makes me laugh when people get triggered by statement like that. It is insecurity and nothing else.
Stop the posturing. I'm not saying majority of non-indigenous people in Lagos say it but calling the lands of my ancestors a "No man's land" even once by a significant number of people would trigger me to defend my heritage.

The issue is, while a few pockets of dissenting voices said it to trigger people in online arguments, most people never refer to Lagos as a "No man's land". It was blown out of proportion for divisive political optics.

User09:
It's pretty obvious why though.

Those tribal past post of GRV coulda been a factor. Plus the switching of names across different election cycle shows he's not as oblivious to the tribal agenda as he would like to claim. One would also expect the typical drama and propaganda of an election from oppositions using these variables

Not sure the past elections had these factors
Maybe; then again, maybe not.

What's certain, however, is that many people, even on this thread, are justifying the hatred and violence.

The good thing is, if there was ever a doubt about where they stand on such socioethnic issues, those doubts are gone with the wind.
The next time those slighted cozy up to their "egbons" here, they should rationalize whether whatever favours they hope to curry outweigh being thought of as less than human.

But people have short memories or the envisaged favours stemming from greed can erode their self worth.

The prevailing topic today has been about the tribal-themed election violence in Lagos yesterday and the hateful tribal narratives all through. Out of the blues, you mentioned Akwa Ibomites and Cross Riverians are just as tribalistic.

I was never going to let that fly, characteristically, so I countered it with verifiable fact.

Focus on the topic or turn a blind eye, but don't falsely use my people as justification for endorsing the madness which happened in Lagos and the narratives leading up to it.

You related it to Akwa Ibom and Cross River so I had to respond.

Disst.roy my guy, you inadvertently proved my point for me, kindly go and read the last parts of my post and come back to this your quote. While you're at it, kindly tell us why Akon Ikpeme had a hard time before becoming Chief Judge in Cross River. I dey wait sir grin
The position of Chief Justice is too sensitive. Always would be. All Chief Justices and Governors should actually have solid roots in the state.

Ikpeme is a full Akwa Ibomite. She wasn't even born in Cross River or her family migrated there.


When Akpabio as Akwa Ibom Governor collected all 72 oil wells from Cross River in 2009 leaving them without any oil, Cross River politics being dominated by my people ( the Ibibios) partly and the Efiks was why they couldn't put up a good fight to at least get some. At least put up a strong fight.
Even some of us from Akwa Ibom felt Akpabio shouldn't have insisted on taking all from our brothers but it is what it is.

You need a Chief Justice with solid roots in the state to fight for that.
Would a Russian born and raised in Russia be made Chief Justice in America? Unlikely. Too sensitive. But with Russian roots and born ans raised in America? Likely.


But many commissioners from Donald Duke's time to Imoke and the current one were and are from Akwa Ibom. Many Permanent Secretaries in Cross River are from Akwa Ibom too. That nullifies your claims.

In Akwa Ibom, many village heads in boundary LGAs like Itu are from Cross River/ have Cross River roots. In the Oro-speaking axis of Akwa Ibom like Oron, Mbo, Okobo, Udung Uko and the likes, Cross Riverians are vying for office and being elected.

The Ibibios and Efiks dominate Akwa Ibom and Cross River sociopolitics but the current Governor of Cross River is from Northern Cross River, those considered minorities of minorities to and by us.


You want a list of Cross Riverians in SUGs in Akwa Ibom and vice versa, or in state governments? Several.

Add what I have explained now with you acknowledging Akwa Ibom or Cross River don't mind Igbos, Yorubas or others taking key positions in our governments and schools, and it completely erodes your claims of tribalism.

Plus the dynamics of Cross River is crazy. I'm glad I'm not from there in a way. Ikom LGA alone in Cross River has 17 languages and tribes. Good luck handling that.

KingTom, you didn't respond to this. I didn't expect that you would given your claims in the post I quoted are founded on falsehood.

Here's one to begin with:

Mr. Emma Owuala is the SA to the Akwa Ibom State Governor on Talent Hunt, and works directly with him and the Commissioner for Tourism and Entertainment.
He's from Abia State and his wife hails from Cross River State.

Facebook personal profile: https://www.facebook.com/emmanuel.owuala

Facebook page: https://m.facebook.com/mremmanuelowuala/

Go through his account and you'd notice him discussing indepthly about intra-politics in the state with nobody being tribalistic against him, not even opposition faithfuls.

There are several more examples in government and in various SUGs. I've compiled a number of them in the last few hours.

Donjazet, there was no precedence in Lagos of Igbos being targeted. Not in 2011, 2015, or 2019. Izu, I, and the others who vehemently countered your rhetorics did so based on precedence. You were asked to produce one instance of such but you couldn't.

Ikot Abasi is already home to many manufacturing industries (including non-oil) so has been getting electricity transmitted from Ibom Power Company since 2007 or so, including as host community of the power plant.

Eket is mostly oil compmanies and related giants.

Of the Constitutional amendment bills signed into law by Buhari, I’m mostly happy about the ones that permits states to generate, transmit, and distribute electricity; establish their own railway systems; and correctional systems.

I've been looking forward to this amendment for years. We are ready for it. My state of origin at least.


-Ibom Power Company: https://www.ibompower.com

- 190 MW already being generated and transmitted to my own LGA at least and the rest fed into the national grid. An extra 500MW capacity added a year ago: https://www.thisdaylive.com/index.php/2022/01/25/ibom-power-targets-generation-increase-with-new-500mw-plant/

While you are all making Emefiele the fall guy for the Naira redesign, Buhari appointed Aisha Buhari's biological brother as the Managing Director of Nigerian Security Printing and Minting Company just before he announced the redesign policy. It was Buhari's plan all along.

Multiple hundreds of billions have been earmarked for and spent on the Naira redesign but it's been a failure so far. Asiha Buhari is pointing at the cabals while her own brother is the reason we are in this mess.

Yet Emefiele is the fall guy and Buhari the innocent one. Let's make excuses for Buhari.

Voting LP from "top to bottom" just for the sake of it is illogical. It only makes sense when the candidates have lesser baggages compared to their opponents on the ballot. Scrutinise the alternatives you want on the LP platform like you scrutinised the presidential candidates.

For example, there's this guy, Harrison Gwamishu, running for State House Reps in Aniocha, Delta State: https://www.nairaland.com/7614401/lp-house-assembly-candidate-harrison .
If you were in the know about the most scandalous happenings on Nigerian Facebook between 2017 to 2022, you should know Harrison.

He endorsed and vouched for the infamous Chinmark ponzi scammer, got a car and other gifts which he refused to return when the lid blew open. He vouched for Ovaioza ponzi scheme too. Though he calls himself a human rights activist, he's a self-confessed cultist who also went to jail for a violent crime.
Don't take my word for it - local-search on Facebook.

In seeking to overhaul the "Establishment", we might open the doorway for dubious persons masquerading as people-lovers.

This Saturday, it's not LP from top to bottom for me. I'm voting individuals with the best credentials across party lines. It should be the same for you.
