They all speak igbo and bear igbo names, igbo market days, Igbo food, igbo everything. The so called oba was adopted recently. Also other Igbos in Rivers have Eze including Ekpeye

JASONjnr:
Tinubu might be very poor with his economic plans... But he's sure getting in the right tracks.

The bank merger plan is another angle that will help the country's economy.


But we hope he holds his minister accountable and ensure they get sacked if they fail to deliver.

So far, no minister is doing enough. Everyone of them seems to be sleeping on duty.

christistruth01:
Eko is the way the yoruba Ijebu pronounced ereko after ereko Market on the Island where King Kosoko's European and Slave Markets were located and where he traded with the Ijebu who sold him slaves from the hinterland

Eko (ereko) means field in yoruba and erekosun means Island

ereko Market is still on lagos Island today!

There is eko Ende (field at the back ) and eko Ajala ( Ajala's field) Towns in Osun State .

eko Ende was one of the Locations of the Jalumi War of 1878 against the Ilorins



By the way Benin is from a Yoruba Word Ile Ibinu which Prince Oranmiyan of Ile Ife called them but we're are not interested in dragging Benin or it's History with them

WorldRichest:
Oba of Lagos means Oba of Isale Eko. It doesn't mean Oba of Lagos State. The Oba of Lagos is not superior to Ayangburen of Ikorodu or Osolo of Isolo. As a matter of fact,but us actually Akran of Badagary that can fraudulently claim to be the Oba of Lagos State, not any other king in Lagos.

Unfortunately, Oba of Benin doesn't know that Lagos State is more than Lagos Island which Isale Eko is a small part of

EmperorCaesar:
You just confirmed that you guys are so obsessed with Yorubas you'd swap anything to see them lose Lagos


That's the lowest of lows any group of people can go... Igbos too dey fuvk up

pachigo001:
So the revelation made by oba of Benin few days ago shows that igbos were right all these while by saying Lagos is no mans why are they dragging them when is the gospel truth they are saying

Pakute:
Ibos are not even going home to patronize the hotels, the ones at home could not even afford it.

Starboytwo:
Omo, the thing tire me.

Any new building wey fine like this na Hotel.

Infact, 9 out of 10 new buildings are hotels.

Na 20-30k hotels dey pay worker. Highest 15-20 workers.

We need more industry in this country, factories, anything other than hotel. All the youths here do nothing but drive Keke.

Pakute:
And they came back with a king with Benin ancenstry, dey play

Pakute:
Benin settled in Onitsha, does it mean they founded Anambra?. Which part of your brain is hot?

Biodun556:
He is not the supreme ruler in Lagos. He was made chairman Lagos traditional council due to economic importance of Lagos island and because Lagos island was the seat of the colonial masters then reason for the title oba of Lagos but in actual fact his authority does not go beyond Lagos island ( isale eko precisely)

Biodun556:
They use their military might to suppress the Aworis just like the egbas did in Otta, Able Egba side

Biodun556:
The word 'founded' is wrong. Like the man rightly said in the video Aworis, ijebus, Nupes, and even the Tinubus (from Bornu) have been in Lagos before the arrival of Bini invaders

Biodun556:
Out of 52 officially recognized traditional rulers in Lagos, only 1 has Benin ancestry. So how does Lagos belongs to you?

Raf4:
Cracked head, shey you know that you igbos travel for economic survival? Abi how will about 30million of you confined in a 5 acres of barren land called SE survive without migrating to other people's land to seek economic asylum?

descarado:
I'm not even a man. If you can't decode that from the tone of my numerous comments on anything anambra, how will you know where I come from.
People like you and anambra first son cost us the presidential election and will continue to cost us more if you won't stop being emotional and throwing tantrum everywhere.

Most people( not your kind of people anyway) here even know how many kids I have. Not everybody is a raving lunatics and and a sadist. Not everybody sees things from the lens you guys use. Has it added more coins to your account.

Who are you to tell me to get the f'off.
Indeed, faceless forum is so good
Gosh, men behaving like adolescents.


Your and your type's antecedents were so glaring during the presidential election I wonder what it would have been had obi won the presidential election.
You have started again. Non of you ever learn from history.
Chest beating for nothing.
Nigeria is having it bad and we assume we igbos are packing millions into our account. All igbos are not affected. We are all billionnaires. No poor person among us. We are all successful business people. All of us are into business. We come here to gloat everyday. We say we are highly intelligent, is this it?
You and your peers attitudes online sucks. Sucks really bad.
You always think you are the best yet poor and backward North have been dealing with you for decades. Other tribes join too. Majority of you guys still sing praise of Jonathan yet he is the highest betrayer of igbo in the last presidential election. I'm sure majority of you are so blind to see Jonathan betrayed obi. Wonder why it is so.
Obi has learnt his lesson. Has any of you learnt yours except business as usual here?
You profess to love obi but will never emulate him. His character made him outstanding.
You suck a lot.
When I read before that obi fanatic fans will cost him the election, I never thought it was possible but if I can go back on how a typical anambra man is behaving online, I wonder if I didn't come from the same state and then again, I know my people offline and not surprised at all. Diasporians from all tribe started obi movement but you guys took over and spoiled everything. We anambra made obi anambra candidate not even igbo candidate. Let's not go to Nigerian candidate. By the time obi knew what was going on, simple conviction from tinubu fan that anambra people will deal with them if obi take over made these people answer Tinubu's bidding. Can you see what your type has cost us.

And hey, I give you this news free. Obi is very diplomatic else he would have giving you the same message too. This is a yoruba forum but see how we behave here. Like we own it.
The owner has shown most of us he is indeed a yoruba. When he decides to ban your account, you will stay off for sometime and come back with new account, continue Chest beating in a yoruba man's forum. Can you see why I said you guys are idiots. Especially the one you are defending. He is back with another moniker, trying to promote his youtube account in a forum of those he hates,baiting them everyday. Baiting all other igbo states. Now he is telling the world how otti is this or that and soludo is angel.
I remembered telling him not to fall for those who want to create division among igbos as they knew him very well but he actually indulged them. He is yer to know why his enemies do that and when somebody sitting and observing from the side dare to tell him, his attack dogs like you will come out to yarn rubbish. Stupidity at its peak.
I am not from anambra cos I tell you the truth?



The day we will stop chest beating is the day the world will take us serious.
Chest beating is not an achievement but mark of low self esteem and my dear, we have loads of it.
Consult a psychologist to know more.

I remember how invictus was glorified by the same guy here.
Once he hear anyone is a millionaire, he will start ringing his bell.
Pathetic.
Oti mkpu.
Yet he laugh and mock others who do that.
Exactly what he does.
Even at the lowest level.
Ihere mee ùnù.
Ndì eze onye agwana m.
