Zombie, ask the idiotic fool if he didn't meet people in Lagos. Ask the idiotic fool why he's not claiming ondo and ogun.
And the idiot didnt explain how the jump over ondo and ogun to Lagos.

Binidefender:
Which part of lagos is Yoruba land?

Oya, tell us how your parents jumped over ondo and ogun to Lagos. You and your irrelevant bini

Agboriotejoye:

Binidefender:

[[s]quote author=castiello post=87391071]Let me educate you Incase not to make this stupid comment next time

LAGOS MY STATE.
WHO OWNS LAGOS? HISTORY 101:POINT OF INFORMATION

"By 1872 Lagos was a cosmopolitan trading center with a population of over 60,000 people. Colonial Lagos developed into a busy, cosmopolitan port, with an architecture that blended Victorian and Brazilian styles.The Brazilian element was imparted by skilled builders and masons who had returned from Brazil The black elite was composed of English-speaking "Saros" from Sierra Leone and other emancipated slaves who had been repatriated from Brazil and Cuba.
By 1872 the population of the colony was over 60,000, of whom less than 100 were of European origin.

In 1876 imports were valued at £476,813 and exports at £619,260. Telephone links with Britain were established by 1886, and electric street lighting in 1898.
In August 1896, Charles Joseph George and G.W. Neville,both merchants and both unofficial members of the Legislative Council, presented a petition urging construction of the railway terminus on Lagos Island rather than at Ido, and also asking for the railway to be extended to Abeokuta. Lagos history is rich in Yoruba tradition,trade and commerce, infrastructural development and cosmopolitanism." -EXTRACTED

With the little facts above, I would like to educate some illiterates making stupid assumption from blind sentiments that they developed Lagos.

Lagosians had telephone presence in 1886, Itu and Calabar got connected to Telephone in 1923, while between 1946 and 1952, a three-channel line carrier system was commissioned between Lagos and Ibadan and was later extended to Osogbo, Kaduna, Kano, Benin, and Enugu.

Communication technology is a major signifier of civilizations and if Lagosians were already making telephone calls more than 70 years before Igbo citizens, where then did you get the warped idea that you came to develop Lagos?

By 1856 Cable and Wireless Company of the UK had commissioned a submarine cable link between Lagos and London and in 1851 a post office was established in Lagos; all these before the emergence of Nigeria as an amalgamated country. If I may ask again, where did the stupid idea that Igbo developed Lagos come from? Or that Lagos was developed with Nigeria's money when Lagos was not even part of Nigeria until 1914.

I always feel embarrassed anytime I read and hear even so-called educated people from the East making these stupid assertions.

The first Yoruba lawyer Christopher Alexander Sapara Williams was called to the English Bar in 1879 whilst the first Igbo lawyer, Sir Louis Mbanefo, was called to the English bar in 1937.

Again the first Yoruba medical practitioner, Dr. Nathaniel King, graduated in 1875 from the University of Edinburgh whilst the first Igbo medical practitioner, Dr. Akannu Ibiam, graduated from another Scottish University in 1935. Again I ask, where did the ignorant hypothesis of the backward Yoruba race who needed development by the superior Igbo race come from?

For the sake of our generation and posterity, we need to teach factual history and not just cook up some cock and bull ego-centric concoctions as facts. The attitude of recycling long tales steeped in empty arrogance should be discarded before you miseducate your kids with fictions.

Awolowo will continue to be the Yoruba hero not because of blind followership but because he gave his people the system of free education, free healthcare and he introduced Television to the Yoruba; making Yorubaland the first region to have a TV station in Africa, all done with revenues from Cocoa. It is crass ignorance and naked buffonery to claim Lagos was built with Nigeria's money. In addition, where did the foolish idea that the Igbo brought civilization to Lagos and Yoruba-land come from?

The aim of this post is not to deride any tribe but to correct the dangerous misinformation trending among some Igbo youths and common in their narratives that Lagos is a no-man's land and that their fathers built and developed Lagos.

Ancestors of Igbo people came to Yoruba-land like all other settlers and we appreciate their contributions. But the stupid claim that Igbo built and developed Lagos is a gross display of stupidity because Lagos was already developed before Igbo ancestors came here from their villages and towns.

The first storey building in Nigeria was built in Marina, Badagry in 1845, long before some of hinterland people gave up the idea of conical mud houses with thatched roofs which some boastfully called 'ancient mansions.' How can you now claim your grand-sires developed Lagos? Please if you are one of those spreading the fiction, I expect you to desist from self-delusion and collective amnesia forthwith.

The first Igbo alphabet-character set and Igbo primer (Isoama-Ibo) was published by Bishop Samuel Ajayi Crowther (a Yoruba man from Osogun) in 1857. How can you now claim superiority over the Yoruba race and even carelessly affirm that your forebears should be thanked for bringing enlightenment to Yoruba Land?

While I do not see all these achievements as a sign of Yoruba superiority over the Igbo or any other tribe, for I do not believe in racial superiority; I will not also tolerate any attempt by bigots who stoke ethnic hatred through incitement and arrogant claims of superiority over others.

Itesiwaju Eko!

Binidefender:

Tell your father to come claim it.

edochie12:

Whiteangel1234:
Go and ask your Grandfather

Do you mean your own grandfather is a useless fellow?

Op, if you won see, go to America or Europe. There you will find many yorubas doing big businesses. Yorubas love it international.

manuelreports:
Point of correction Lagos is not your father's Land, Compare Osun, Osogbo, Oyo with any State in the South East not Lagos which belongs to Edo people. The Last time I checked your bill people were drinking dirty mud water, a scenario you hardly encounter in any place in South East.

You are pained. Today you say bini land, tomorrow you say no man's land, next tomorrow, ijaw land. Don't you see how confused?

Hmm

I know he's not talking to me.

BULLIONVAN4:
eaten

afonja warrior that can't make a good command of english but always ready to attack the Igbos with their grammatical blunder.

No wonder AJ and other Nigerians reffers to yorubas as loud mouth and machine-gun mouth.

Okay, lol, you no see the man with good command of English. Stupid osu that doesn't understand Concord is here to correct someone. Is this not why they say you should remove the log in your eyes before trying to remove that of others. Other Nigerians refers.

Concord you don't understand, spelling error.
Foolish osu.

Anambralstson:
Can you show me evidence of Hide carrying drugs? , I believe you forgotten Yoruba man that beheaded British army, may of your kinsmen are more in Britain prisons than Igbo

According to ipob bureau of statistics. But if the British brings stat Now, we know the result. No be today. WHO, Forbe comes to mind.

Ngozi123:
What does egusi mean in Yoruba?

Egunsi is a Yoruba word for it. Even Hausas eat egunsi.

Yoruba calls it Efo elegunsi
Igbo calls ofe egunsi
Hausa calls it Miyan gushi.

Everyone prepares it differently. You people do your own with little oil and pepper. Yoruba prepare their own with lots of oil and little more paper cos it will make them spit if pepper not added properly.

I don't know how hausas prepare theirs.

So it is not igbo soup.

Anambralstson:
Loud mouth tribe


No tribe can be comper To Igbos in sports in Nigeria this is fact everybody know

Herbie Hide Herbert Okechukwu Maduagwu former professional boxer who competed from 1989 to 2010. He held the WBO heavyweight title twice between 1994 and 1999, as well as the British heavyweight title in 1993

The only boxers we know now are yorubas Joshua and adeyemi. Both are undefeated.

EVILFOREST:
I Love Everything about him but he lied about the YORUBA EGUSI SOUP.

Even the Ooni and most Yorubas know that Yoruba soup is a national threat to the body's system..

POUNDED YAM, I can Agree.
But Yoruba soup is a BIG NOOOOO.
They Know they haven't done justice in that regard.

He doesn't know that they usually arrange soup from neighboring IGBO/EFIK RESTAURANTS for him.
He thought his people have improved.

Lol, ewedu is eating widely in Yoruba land, Egypt, some North Africa nations and in Brazil. You can ask Kaka and Ronaldo delima. However, can you mention just one nation or other people that eat shit you call white soup with you?

Does your nsala has any nutrient without putting fish?

Does it has botanical name?

Ngozi123:
The guy is saying that his favourite meal is pounded yam and egusi soup, which is an igbo dish and you're saying this.

Just be proud of your people without mentioning Igbos, ok?

When did pounded yam and egunsi soup become igbo dish? Why una like claiming what is not yours. Does pounded yam looks like Akpu to you?

perpeling22:
Thank God you said "Ignos"
I wonder what Yorubas have that is lacking in other tribe

Other tribe don't have Joshua

Chris2863:
As if yorubas sabi cook Egusi or pound yam�

Start a competition between your tribe and Yoruba tribe.

Ogilinsaka:
He didn't know or have any tangible thing to say at an event as this hence the blabbing about Egusi and pounded yam..

You that have tangible thing to say. Go there na. Hater.

LordAzubuike:
When will this kid realize he's British and has no business with Nigeria.

Go to him and tell him

NOwazobia:
Better he say it now because he may not be able to use that mouth when he meet with Fury.

Osu hater. Son of serpent. He will destroy you and your osu tribe again.

maxbj:
In as much as oyedepo is right that Buharis govt is the worst in the history of man. Apc is also right by saying what dey said. He is a business man cashing out from members hard earned money.

I don't think the members are complaining. But I am sure you are complaining about your useless government

valarmorghulis:
Is the university free?

How many of your government schools are free?

iTearHerToto:
