A rather enlightening post...here's a reply I gave to someone who was promoting tribal inequality..I hope it gives some insights too.

ekiloui:


I'll just correct a mistake u made above..Lagos belongs to the Lagosians and not to YORUBAS...same way Ekiti doesn't belong to those from Ondo state. An Anambra man has as much right to Lagos as a Kano man and also as an Osun man. The only similarity between the later mentioned and a lagosian is their language and maybe one or 2 traditions.

2ndly Lagos is the former country Capital built with Nigeria's Money and not the money of lagosians, infact it has been developed with the money of Igbos, Yorubas and Hausas. So being a Yoruba man doesn't give u rights to lagos, I won't even pay u attention except u're a full indigene.

I stay in Abuja now and I've witnessed the development here, just like lagos it's being done by both Igbos, Hausas and Yorubas. Mind u Abuja Indigenes aren't Hausas but it's in the North. Does that mean that if the Capital moves the entire Hausa tribe will claim Abuja and chase the Yorubas and Igbos out? Ofcourse jugding by your post they should have the right since it's in the North.

Saying Lagos is no man's land isn't meant to disrespect anyone, infact the only people that should feel disrespected are it's indigenes and not the entire Yoruba tribe.

Let's put this tribe issues aside in Lagos state and move on..unfortunately Lagos has the history it has and you can turn back time or try to re-write it. The population of "Non-Indigenes" in lagos is as a result of it being a state capital and just like Abuja is no man's land atm, u can't change the history of Lagos

Meanwhile...while we say calm down and move on, if Agbaje wins then we shall see the effects of the Obas words today. And mind you, if violence starts because of those words all in Lagos will be affected. Let's pray for a peaceful election

I'm interested in 2 states
Alex Otti for Abia state
Ifeanyi Okowa for Delta state

#VoteAlexOtti (say no to T.A n his pdp thugs)

You can open a restaurant, or be different and open a pizza/Shawarma/froyo joint and maybe add a calabar kitchen to it, it depends on your environment tho...I stay in Abuja where such things sell but I don't know how Akwa Ibom is. I've had this restaurant idea for a while now but no money...remember food is an essential commodity and man must chop. But u have to be interested in any business u want to do...if u have no interest in this kinda biz then don't do it.

Goodluck

RIP guys.

ayusco85:


so ur saying because lagos belongs to igbos too? and that one day igbos will claim abuja too? i pity ur reasoning. Lagos is for the yorubas. #Kapish

You pity my reasoning? Lol...I laugh in Swahili. Don't pity my reasoning ooo...pity the fact that u don't have money to buy glasses and read well..or rather pity the fact that u have 0 IQ to understand what I wrote.

Funny how my post was written in a very simple form and u still have difficulty comprehending...Olodo

FYI, Lagos belongs to Lagosians and not "Yorubas", if you're from Osun, Ondo, Ogun or Ekiti that's the one that belongs to u

ayusco85:
I think the Igbos should respect their host, and try and do what will bring peace and peaceful co-existence. No one will go to Aba or Onitsha and try to claim relevance or drag rights with the true indigenes of those areas. Lagos belongs to the Yoruba's, like it or not.

Lagos does not belong to "Yorubas" it belongs to lagosians.

Stop mixing things up, Lagos of today was built by everyone, both the Igbos, Hausas and Yorubas. And they must have equal rights, infact lagos has been home to a lot of people for decades, it was once the country's capital and was built with federal Government money made from the East, West, North and south, so calling yourself a "host" simply because you speak Yoruba is nonsense...only the true indigenes whose ancestral home is lagos have the right to do so.

If the Igbos are visitors and then you're also a visitor who speaks the same language, the sooner u see Lagos as home to all the smarter u'd sound.

Tomorrow can 1 Hausa man come and chase all the Igbos and Yorubas from Abuja? After using the sweat of all the regions to build it.

As for Rochas...I luv u..but shut up!
Everyone has the right to vote their choice irrespective of the party or your selfish reasons.

I luv Buhari as the president, but his comment about voting APC because the Oba said so is a let down.

And as for the Oba not apologising, I can now see that Nigeria's not a real democracy, and monarchs are free to do as they please and hide under the guise of tradition and even get protection from the government, I pray Buhari works for us but honestly, I don't see things changing soon.

Idrismusty97:
If you like don't move on, it doesn't change anything. The highest you can do is vote for Agbage and that still won't be enough to make him win. Move on or go to hell!

You and the people who gave you 43 likes are non-entities...and you're all the problem that this country has...when people like you become properly educated then we can move on.

P.S You can still be an illiterate with a school degree

[size=14pt] If you are trying to play "smart' by this asinine post of yours, you actually exposed your stewpidity and Eediocy![/size]

"CHRISTIANS' did NOT bomb the "WHOLE NORTH".

1.) Nigerian Army bombed TERRORISTS located in "SOME" of the Northern States like BORNO.

2.) The Soldiers involved were made up of both Christians and MUSLIMS!

3.) The TERRORISTS (Boko Haram) were actually the ones KILLINGS Christians and MOSTLY MUSLIMS!

It is Stewpid "Closet Terrorists" like you who foment Religious Fanaticism......borne mainly out of IGNORANCE and ILLITERACY.
Now Gerrout of here before you "explode"! Ooloshi!!

Lastpage!

na u come display Eediocy last last sha. All he meant was that Christians would never do such

Are those ones candidates? I've never heard of them..infact they are non-entities.. Otti will flaw Mr. Pdp, and if T.A AKA Ocheozu rigs, there'll be problems. 16 years of no progress is enough! Say no to PDP

#VoteAlexOtti

P.S which Jazz these PDP people take do my fellow Igbos sef...e must fail one day

Kaeboy:
. so in other words lagos is no mans land hmmmn I bet even agbaje cannot dere elevate an igbo to oba of lagos..........I only pray igbo in lagos will nt bite more than dy can chew...........because by d tym it starts u will all wish u neva think dat way...while we r still neeting on how to correct ilorin misery u igbo in lagos came up again ook we shall see

I like the fact that you have boy in your moniker. Don't argue when mature minds are arguing...go and play with toys or something and stop speaking like your brains have been fried.

P.S you made no sense

RoyalPriesthuud:
I don't know much abou Abuja's history b4 being made d capital tho. I won't dispute ur opinion nor that of eurobomber, but I'll go against that Jimi Agbaje's claim of making an Igbo Oba of Lagos. We mix seperate tradition and heritage with civilisation. The Royal family, which obviously would be a Yoruba Lagosian should always produce the King. Even in d UK, u can't b d queen except u'r a royal blood.

Royalty is for the indigenes, I haven't disputed that. Ambode is from Ondo state, and is the fave to win this even over the indigene Agbaje, Lagos politics is totally different from any other state.

Royalty will always be with the real Lagosians.

P.S I was born and half bred in Lagos, so I do know a lot about both Lagos and Abuja hence my opinion

EUROBOMBER:
The recent happenings in Lagos have created so much tension between the Igbo and the Yoruba. There is so much bitterness and hate talk flying around and this will not do us any good.

When you try to break a wall using a sledge hammer, you need to apply several blows before it gives in. You might need to apply a 100 blows but one thing to note is that it is not the 100th blow that breaks the wall, it is a combination of effects from the very first blow. This brings me to the recent statement credited to the Oba of Lagos to the Igbos. I condemn the statement and I believe every right-thinking person should do the same in the interest of peace and civility. What I want to tell my Igbo people is that the Oba's outburst is not just as a result of the forth-coming gubernatorial election in Lagos but a combination of factors. I hear some of our people calling Lagos a no-man's-land and this is just too bad; this is the height of arrogance and disrespect. How can we move into a Yoruba land, enjoying God's blessings and prosperity only to turn round and tell the people that their land belongs to nobody, that we feed them, and that they cannot survive without us and all the other rubbish and provocative stuff??

Clearly the Oba has been harbouring this anger as a result of the arrogance and provocation of our Igbo people and just could not contain it this time and lashed out.

My Igbo brothers, can we sit down and ask ourselves why we have been so aggressive towards the Yorubas? What have they done wrong to us to deserve this provocation and arrogance? The Yorubas are a very peaceful people and we turn round to call them cowards and all sorts of names. What do we want the Yorubas to do to prove to us that they are not cowards, rise up and go on a killing spree? These Yorubas even returned all our properties to us after the civil war something even our close neighbours in the SS didn’t do!

What does it take to respect your host and do as they wish my people for Christ’s sake? We are prosperous in Yoruba land and are enjoying the land and have no problem with the people, all they are for is for us to know our limits and give them their respect is this too much to ask from us? Let me ask my people one honest question, why are we not shouting that Kano is a no-man’s land The Yorubas have been very nice and taking all these insults from us and we turn around to point our fingers in their noses and call them cowards! Jesus! We claim to be Christians and worship God, is it not written in the bible that blessed are the peace makes for they shall be called the children of God?

My Igbo people please see a sample of what is making the Yorubas very angry with us:

1. I WILL ELEVATE EZE NDIGBO TO THE STATUS OF OBA OF LAGOS - JIMI AGBAJE.

2. IGBO WILL DETERMINE WHO RULES LAGOS- IFEANYI UBAH

3. LAGOS IS NO MAN'S LAND.- IFEANYI UBAH DURING TAN CAMPAIGN.

4. IGBO DEVELOPED AND CONTROL LAGOS- JIMI AGBAJE DURING GEJ CAMPAIGN IN AKWA IBOM

5. WE MUST PRODUCE THE NEXT DEPUTY GOVERNOR OF LAGOS- EZE NDIGBO

MY QUESTIONS TO IGBOS,

1. CAN OBI OF ONITHSA ACCEPT ALL THE ABOVE MENTIONED?

2. CAN EMIR OF KANO ACCEPT ....?

3. DO YOU HAVE ANY SINGLE TRIBE IN YOUR CABINET IN THE EAST?

4. CAN ANY TRIBE CLAIM ONITHSA OR ABA TO BE NO MAN,S LAND?

5. CAN OBI OF ONITHSA ACCEPT THE ELEVATION OF SARKIN HAUSA IN ONITHSA TO OBI STATUS?

I want to use this medium to appeal to well-meaning Yorubas to forgive the childishness and foolishness of our people. Please drop any plans of violence being planned against our people and all other diplomatic ways of punishing our people in your land including Lagos.

We recognise that LAGOS IS A YORUBA LAND and will respect that. Please I appeal for calm and understanding. I am inviting some Yorubas I respect on this forum to help reach out to your people to be calm, I have personally decided to start a campaign to reorientate our people as God helps me in my own way to change the way we think.

Even God told Moses that if he could find just 10 righteous people he will not destroy Sodom & Gomorrah. Igbos like me are far more than 10 in Lagos and other areas of SW. Please do not bring out the beast in you and and please allow better judgement prevail over emotions.

I'll just correct a mistake u made above..Lagos belongs to the Lagosians and not to YORUBAS...same way Ekiti doesn't belong to those from Ondo state. An Anambra man has as much right to Lagos as a Kano man and also as an Osun man. The only similarity between the later mentioned and a lagosian is their language and maybe one or 2 traditions.

logica:
You need to come back to Gidi come do this assignment yourself. By the time you write:

1. Emeka
2. Emeka
3. Emeka

U go tire kukuma fill the page with Emeka.

15. Emeka
16. Emeka
17. Kunle

Anyway..point is he was wrong to tribalise it and that's that

logica:
Really? Name one...

Tomorrow go to Alaba Market, carry pen and paper ask them for their names, then come back and give us report.

I would have done it but I no longer stay in lag

The funniest thing is that some people see nothing wrong with this comment. Piracy isn't a tribal thing, there are Yorubas in Aba, dear Kunle some of those pirates in Alaba Market are Yorubas, if not for these same "Pirates" u wouldn't be who u are today...fight piracy and not a tribe

The obas statement was very crass and wrong, no matter who he is he isn't above the law. Nigeria is not a monarchy but a democratic country. Anyway if they say he didn't say that "all the better". We can continue to see him as a sensible man.

Meanwhile majority of the people here claiming Lagos as their land and calling others immigrants are not even from lagos, they are probably immigrants from the west and the only thing they have in common with the real lagosians is their language and maybe 1 or 2 traditions... Most of them weren't even born in lagos. Talk of kettles...

Anyways Vote Ambode!

this story is too good to be true,if he were an American or Indian I would belive but 9ja bros diz guy still dey play 4 sandsand with him tear tear pant and counter full inside him shirt with plenty rubber ring he no even knw d function of him pinini.@8

You can only believe the story if u read it. Obviously his elder brother showed him the way and no...it wasn't revealed to me in a dream, The OP stated it.


I wonder why some NLers choose to term stories as "unbelievable" without reading at all...abi them no sabi read?

Baddestguyp:
lies. u don't release sperm at age 7. besides how will someone wànk 8 times everyday. haba!!!

Try and read b4 commenting...he never said anything about releasing sperm at age 7..

babakb:
note: the childlessness is not the issue, besides their marriage is just 1 year plus, but since their marriage the timing and flow of the period changed,
sometimes the period doesn't come until after 2 months
and the flow is far less than what it used to be

If this is recent like about 4 months to six months, then she should go for a pregnancy test. I'm not a doctor but I like to research on things a lot and I know bleeding (which is usually mistakened for mensturation) occurs during pregnancy and some pregnancies do not show until late...so she might not actually be seeing her period at all..just bleeding that's if she's indeed pregnant. Let her see a doctor

Godstime1:
My people perish for lack of wisdom, that is the problem followers of APGA Guber factional candidate are suffering from if not they should have realized that their master is not going any further or closer to any power in this state because he is the Angle we don't know and don't even pray to know now.

PDP is for Abia State and that's final ,come April 11th ,OKEZIE IKPEAZU will emerge as the next Governor of Gods own state Abia and shall consolidate on the existing foundation and take Abia to a greater height in Jesus name, Amen!

VOTE WISELY
VOTE PDP
VOTE DR OKEZIE VICTOR IKPEAZU
TOGETHER WE CAN..........

Say no to underdevelopment! Say no to lack of change! Abians are tired of PDP...Alex Oti for Governorship...Say no to T.A Oji and his boys!

Amen! APGA will win in Abia state. Say No to Ochendu abi Ocheozu and his gang..no more pdp and their rigging antics in Abia..protect your votes and vote for Alex Oti

OneNaira6:


See this one. So you didn't know SA had the highest economy in Africa followed by Egypt and finally Nigeria.
Nigeria overtook Egypt few years ago and finally SA few months ago.
So you want to rewrite history and award yourselves the highest since beginning of time. Chei. Typical nigerian. I won't be surprised that yoruba you be or have a yoruba in your bloodline. Claiming other's achievement and Rewriting history na their trademark.

He's right!

Nigeria has had the highest GDP for a long time even when S.A "overtook" Egypt. The government must have "forgotten" rebase for almost 10 years.

Sweetguy25:
Delusions.
Nigeria cannot be super power with the current type of economic, governmental and socio-political systems and structures that runs in the country.
Lets stop deceiving ourselves.

in other words what you are trying to say is that nothing can change between now and 2040?

you're the only one that might be deceiving yourself.

kenonze:
Whats is all these crap all about.

Pls my Dearest APC, we shld behave oursef.
Why shld we be burying the opposition when they are still alive.
Let my enemies live and see what I shall become in future.

Thank you! The worst part is that they are destroying properties and threatening lives in some states. I expected that to happen if APC had lost but I can see that winning can't stop them. I like Buhari and I hope he brings in the change he promised but some of his supporters are barbaric

Oops...I meant for the training. We haven't been paid for the main job yet

Although I'm not a corper I participated in the elections as an ex-corper. We were paid N4500 for training (corpers inclusive) in the fct but info reaching us says some states were paid up to N10,500. Anyway the money for election as at 1st april has not been paid...I just dey look

How odd, your post has 69 likes

I wonder why Davido took up a gig in Kenya. Everyone knows east africans hate davido ever since he had that episode with diamond, look at that fool saying Nigerian music is whack...her people don't even have one well known musician in africa, so where's their good music? Besides these same kenyans were the ones insulting Inyanya for featuring in those ugly boys (Sauti Sol) song..their beef is with our country not our artists. Bad belle is allowed

innovativeame:

Well, I perceive a foul play and wrong computation of figures, because the last time I checked, Apga never had a presidential candidate. Pls, give us reasonable figures.

Adjust your glasses
