This is why I said u need history books.
Ur DemiGod who doesn't know that westafricsns were nude before colonization.
Is quite dumb..
Wait have u heard about olaudah equiano ?

Olaudah Equaino? What did he do for his tribe? He was taken as a slave and never came back, much like his modern counterparts who would rather be in hell than the potopoto land.

tossie101:
Read again and read slowly u are so unintelligent

You are too freaking slow and it is so glaring. Tell your kids your ancestors roamed about naked but not the Yorubas. We didn't roll like that. We are not osus.

tossie101:
Then he is dumb!!..
No wonder u are blind

Dumb enough to write the first primer for your language and dumb enough to translate the bible to your language and brought you some civilization, something nobody in your history even tried to do.
I like that type of dumbness.

tossie101:
U are pure mumu..
Let me remind u that pic and write up was when Nigeria media was still pure and without lie and propaganda..
Dumb man!!

You just too daft, what propaganda? It even says "Yoruba people and scarification" but you are too foolish to know that she wasn't just going about naked like your folks did.

tossie101:
And he didn't teach u that all West Africans were nude before white people came so he taught nothing

He taught me he brought clothes and literacy to your folks.

tossie101:
Trash!! .. U need education
U can't deny this familiar face

You are obviously too dumb to know that the main focus of this picture was the scarification. Perhaps you are too slow to know that this will not be possible if she was fully clothed.

tossie101:
U YORUBAs are embarrassment to Nigeria.
U need history books..
Look at the pictures of ur ancestors and hide it face in shame for ur ignorance.
What I'm teaching u now I learned it primary school social studies

Yeah, one of my ancestors taught yours how to read and write your own language. For that alone you should be eternally grateful.

tossie101:
See mumu, the pictures u were posting did u show links to them..
U too mumu o, or can't u read it clearly there?
Stop being ignorant pls

I wouldn't be too surprised if you don't know how to post links. Perhaps you are just being true to type by being dodgy as usual.
It is a historic fact that white people met your folks butt na.ked in the rainforest of southern Nigeria. No cities or towns or any form of civil organization.
It was every man to himself just like other wild animals in the forest and whenever they felt like they needed some protein, the neighbors flesh will do just fine.

tossie101:
Guestlander come and see..
I know u are blind but let me still direct u. see them pictures here.
No West African country is on cloth in olden days.. White people showed us how to cover our bodies properly.. U need history books.
I don't blame u I blame Nigeria who removed history from our educational curriculum.

It's a pity are from the "educated tribes" yet I'm still schooling you.

Why do you like to revel in ignorance like this? Why don't you just show me the link to the pictures of these naked Yoruba people?

tossie101:
Look again.. ;
They bared u naked..
U YORUBAS are very delusional.

Delusional? If you try to fight armoured tanks with your bare hands and cudgels that is delusional.

resurgent4oodua:
It's your innate bigotry and inferiority complex that is speaking.

Lmao. Very well said.

tossie101:
I don't need to argue with u again, they have proven u wrong with loads of pics
U guys are so delusional.
It's very shoking ..the so called educated tribe.
Lmao

What loads of pictures? I saw a picture of what looks like a kind of ceremony and a woman whose body scarification was being pictured. If that is your evidence of Yorubas not wearing clothes before colonization then you can't be helped.

tossie101:
Don't tell me YORUBAS have been putting on cloths that's a lie from pit of hell.
Even some white people were totally nude before the see colonization.
How can u people claim educatetd and still be this dumb..
NO AFRICAN COUNTRY especially west Africa.
Was on cloth before colonization.
Stop this self deceit.

This is a Yoruba woman in d past.

Talk about your own tribe. Yoruba wore clothes long before colonization.

Nbote:
D fact dat U and ur likes spend more time to talk about him dan even d Ibos U mentioned shows how insane U ppl are

He came back from the dead just as people are beginning to forget about him. If you don't want people to talk about him, then let him go back to being dead.

PrincessB1:
Nawa o
Jebus - JebuIsale- Jurusalem

Mo sha - Moshe - Moses

This is not in anyway to endorse Reno's write up but in some Ekiti dialect "mo se" actually means to pick up something.
I think Reno is trying to make connections where none may exist.

Nnamdi Kanu died in the python dance. His body double is roaming about like a vagabond to deceive gullible Ipobs.

ephemm:
That boy has surely spoken to a lawyer and they are trying to throw in a benefit of doubt.

Prosecution must be very smart otherwise this boy might get away with murder.

Scared! Yet the didn't inform the sleeping gateman, nor raise alarm after the assassins left.
How did blood get to your apron?
Why would the assassins leave the murder weapon at the crime scene?

He allegedly stole the victim's phone, that is not a normal reaction for someone who just went through a traumatic experience.

Sir Alfred Moloney (Colonial Governor of Lagos 1897)

I will save your excerpt for future references.

Things his Biafran allies in Nigeria didn't know. They were on the streets to celebrate his election as president.
They are at the moment cozying up with Israel, the same country that would pay black immigrants to go back to their respective countries.

Too many fake news from that part of the country. Wait for further details before wishing him a peaceful rest.

Duru1:
I guess with all these alleged robust economies in western region of Nigeria, the Yari.ba would have led the fight for disintegration of Nigeria. Could you imagine what your Oduduwa republic can look like? People will beg to emigrate to Oduduwa or even adopt the caravan-like approach.

We asked the colonial authorities to include a secession clause in the independence constitution but some greedy people thinking they will dominate everything in the new country opposed it. When it didn't happen that way they turned to violence.

OnyeOGA:
The bitter truth is that you don't know the real owners of Lagos till the colonial masters came. Before you start talking like a kid let of enlighten you a bit.
During the colonial period, the British disliked the Igbos, because of their supposedly uppitiness and argumentativeness. During military service in Burma and India, the pride of Igbo soldiers amongst other African soldiers was proverbial. In the company offices and orderly rooms, the first few words from the White officer speaking to an Igbo soldier was followed by “don't argue, you! Or “you want to be too clever”, and similar expressions. Their expressive and aggressive mentality which they enjoy in their culture at home, does not always allow them to accept false charges or accusations without responding. The late famous writer, Langston Hughes, observed “the Igbo looks proud because he is bred in a free atmosphere where everyone is equal. He hates to depend on anyone for his life's need. He does not mind if others look proud. He has much to be proud of in his land. Nature has provided for him. He is strong and able to work or fight. He is well formed. He is generally happy in his society where no ruler overrides his conscience. He likes to advance and he is quick to learn. He likes to give rather than take”.
Politically, the Igbos are very effervescent and volatile. According to author Dan Jacobs “for Britain and for the British civil servants who continued to work in the Northern Region, the Igbos have always been a troublesome element in the federation, a people with a democratic tradition who are not easily controlled. Many British were glad to see them out of a central position in the federation, as were those who had driven them back to their homeland and those who now held the civil service and other jobs they had left”

If everything you wrote was true then Lugard must have been mad to merge us in the first place.

immhotep:
Lagos remains 51% Igbo despite all the Igbophobia.

According to ipob bureau of statistics.

Odingo1:

The truth of the matter is that the British defeated the Binis in Lagos to conquer Lagos, if Yorubas are the owners of Lagos the British should have defeated Yorubas to took over Lagos instead they met Binis in lagos when they came. Where are the Yorubas then

This was history according to ipob history books.

Obi1kenobi:
I don hear. Let that Yoruba from Togo, or Benin or wherever come and claim our properties, nah. It's not that hard. Foolish chest beating online is no substitute for reality.

I'm dead serious. In a hypothetical situation whereby people are asked to leave Lagos, by the time a Babatunde from Republic of Benin is asked to leave an Emeka from Anambra would have been long gone.

Obi1kenobi:
None of the above. I don't give 2 shiits about who owns Lagos or who are strangers in Lagos. I leave you to have those primitive, useless arguments among yourselves. Just here to debunk the silly claim that we ran from Lagos after June 12, or the other keyboard warriors making threats.

You absolutely did and that for me proved the saying that home is where the heart is. How come Yorubas did not run anywhere?

Obi1kenobi:
Whether the country remains together or not, there is not a damn thing you can do to those with roots in Lagos. You're not here to engage in tribal back-and-forth, yet here you are.
Pointed out my debunking your silly lies. Again, substantiate your claims that most of us ran from Lagos during the June 12 unrest. Substantiate it or stop wasting my time with irrelevant ramblings.

Roots in Lagos? A Yoruba from Republic of Benin has a better claim to Lagos than you.

Obi1kenobi:
Really? Yet, we go back to our villages far more than you do and build in our villages, while you all claim Lagos to be your village. Still waiting for you to substantiate your claims that we all ran from Lagos during June 12 unrest.

I don't care what you do in your villages and you shouldn't care about what I do in Lagos or anywhere in Yorubaland.

Obi1kenobi:
In this Lagos. Maybe in some Mushin slum where you were, Igbos left. I don't know one single person that left Lagos at the time.

Mushin is alright for me. I'm good as long as I'm not in Mbaise or anywhere near your rainforest. I know a lot ibos who left, some did not even bother to come back.

Obi1kenobi:
99.9999% of Igbos in Lagos stayed here during the June 12 brouhaha. Your point is.....?

In which Lagos exactly? The one in Portugal or Nigeria?

Diiet:
Any yoruba man, irrespective of his state of origin is a bonafide indegene of lagos.
But the people who only spend three days in their villages during christman festival will forever remain non indegenes of lagos irrespective of their contribution or years they've lived in lagos.

We know the people Ambode is refering to and those people know themselves, they are already showing their displeasure here. Instead of picking offense with the statement, let it serve as a wake up call.
What the governor is trying to say is that you should start holding your leaders acountable instead of fleeing to yoruba land.

That question was already settled during the June 12 issue. We know the people who stayed and the people who ran back to where they came from.

SarkinYarki:
If this happened anywhere in the South that bird would have been eaten ..I know what I am saying

Lol
