knoph2007:https://static.today.ng/wp-content/uploads/2014/11/Oba-Akiolu.jpg The palace of the Oba of Lagos, Rilwan Akiolu, has issued a statement, clarifying the Oba’s comments on his alleged threat to Igbos in Lagos to vote the governorship candidate of the All Progressives Congress, APC, Akinwunmi Ambode or die in the lagoon. Below is the statement; THE PALACE MAKES FURTHER CLARIFICATION ON THE STATEMENT BY THE OBA OF LAGOS. My attention has been drawn to a publication in a national newspaper where HRM Oba Riliwanu Akinolu was alleged to have threatened Igbos in Lagos to make them vote for Ambode. Last Sunday, all honorary Eze Ndigbos in Lagos paid a courtesy call to HRM Oba Akinolu. At the meeting the visitors praised the Oba for his fatherly support for and cooperation with Igbos in. Lagos. They assured him of their continued good neighborliness with other tribes in Lagos and support everything that’ll further strengthen that harmony. Oba Akiolu on his part acknowledged the enviable performance of Governor Fashola and his contribution to the growth of investments in Lagos. He gave the assurance that he is not disturbed or angry with South-East and South- South votes for President Jonathan as perceived by the Eze Ndigbos. The Obas thereafter called on the Igbos chiefs to show appreciation to Lagos State by supporting his candidate Mr. Ambode for continuity of excellence as they have earlier promised. He assured them of his continued support and assistance where needed and the meeting ended with the traditional breaking of kolas, alligator pepper, and bitter kola and pouring of liberation on the ground. It was within this context that that the tradition of Lagos with regard to the lagoon came up. It was noted that whoever works against the throne and the interest and peaceful co-existence of Lagos would end up in the lagoon as per tradition. 2.Oba Akiolu stated further that the Igbo people have not betrayed the throne. Lagos has also not betrayed the Igbo people. Lagos has done so much to make the Igbos comfortable and to prosper. For this, we expect reciprocal respect and understanding. The Oba of Lagos prays that the Lagoon and the throne will continue to bless and protect all those who reside and visit Lagos. 3. Oba Akiolu is the father of all irrespective of tribe, religion or political persuasion. In Lagos, we have an old traditional proverb that relates to the Lagoon. The Lagoon is unique to Lagos. The proverb stresses the need for unity and understanding when you do business in an environment and in this case when you live and do business in Lagos. Oba Akiolu prays for peace for the land of Lagos and prosperity for all its inhabitants. Signed: Chief Lateef Aderibigbe Ajose, Opeluwa of Lagos April 6, 2015 |
jamesjohn2010:I don't believe he said it as the nonsense Sunnews "reported." |
tpiadotcom:Psycho. You get talked to the way you deserve. You had it coming. Next time it'll be worse. Right now, I'll leave you to parade unclothed around the Nairaland market the way you've been doing for years now. Asiwere. ![]() |
babyosisi:The Oba is more than just a Kabiyesi at the moment. He represents a throne and an ideal that's larger than himself. A stranger wouldn't understand that. Any comments attributed to him that is not in quotation or verifiable is empty (fabricated) noise. |
tpiadotcom:B!tch! Do you get org@sms following me around? I'm tolerant but one day you might wish you'd stayed the f#ck off my ass! A very bad day for you it will be. I'm not g*y. Piss off! |
babyosisi:'His generation' are those of his age group; a generation is counted as 30 years. ![]() |
It's too bad that Igbo people are being used by enemies of Nigeria, politicians, and Nairaland tribalists alike. Jeje l'omo Ibo n se business e. What does he care which party rules Lagos. ![]() <<Throwing up my hands>> |
babyosisi: ![]() |
nduchucks:I agree. What nonsense. No Omoluabi would speak like that, not to talk of Kabiyesi Ikeji Orisa. The link to the online "news" story isn't even working. Sunnewsonline is to legitimate news what Vanilla Ice is to real rappers (Rakim, Tupac). |
macof:That post you responded to is one of the stupidest and most disturbing ones I've ever read on NL. What's wrong with (our?) people? Speechless. |
tbaba1234:Electricity! Electricity!! Electricity!!! TBaba, good to see you, bros! ![]() |

isalegan2: meforyou1:Show me the money! Shoooow meee the mo-naaay!! ![]() |
Thanks for that, Chelsea fan. I trust you've been well. Good to sight you. ![]() |
JingoOAU:I concur. |
nerodenero:And what better way to practise the politics/policy of inclusion than by rewarding those who don't even expect it or have taken it for granted? The quickest way to bring Nigeria together and move forward collectively to lasting progress is to reject marginalization, victimization and separation. |
Xandulyn:So it's always supposed to show under your clothes? Is it always white or can it be different colours to match your outerwear? |
AjanleKoko:Knew that. Where's your sarcasm meter? ![]() Anyway, now that fed is locked and loaded, onto gubernatorial. I'm not passionate about who gets in, but was told the contest in Lagos is gearing up to be competitive because PDP is throwing all their might into it and mobilising like crazy to get out the vote. I just assumed with APCs base in Lagos being a behemoth that it was no contest. You're in Lag, right? What d'ya know? |
TerraCotta: Actually, I now remember the poster from a previous run-in. I recall reading he changed monikers. This is his M.O.I guess because the OP 's moniker appears fem, that means all Tinubu admirers are women. ![]() Deja vu all over again. Ignored. Omonnakoda = Aribisala. |
omonnakoda:You show yourself for what you are. Continue. I blame those that are wasting their time on you when you start off your post insulting women. |
omonnakoda:Dude, your opening sentence is bullsh!t! I'm not inclined to engage you after seeing that nonsense. |
Desola:What does the above mean? Looks like Hausa-Yooba. ![]() naijababe:Nice one, British Awori heiress. . You don't know CAPITALISM until you've looked into the eyes of an American bureaucrat, doctor, or random social-climber, and seen dollar signs where a soul should be. The economic system that Yorubas and most Africans practice(d) is not the real, pull yourself up by your bootstrap, Darwinian, dog-eat-dog world, chattel slavery into the fourth generation, zero-wealth distribution, capitalist model. |
naijababe: ![]() Where's OlaOne, Kilode, Aja the gentleman and a scholar, OAM4multiplewivesJ. . .? ![]() |
Katsumoto: SirShymexx:Abiola = MKO Abiola. SirShymexx: naijababe:I understand what he didn't articulate. But I'm a 'Communist' sha, like Katsumoto said. By the way, what's all the 'great katz' this and 'wonderful katz' that? I taught that pretend Japanese-Brasilero all he knows! Kasunmu omo baba al'aisi water, you better ju'ba f'awon to laiye. ![]() NB, you annoying me. . . and not because of your Awo/Jagaban comparison. You're actually doing very well there. To the point of taking me back to an article - multiserial, I think - that I read in the old Newswatch about Awo's politicking, etc. < continues reading thread> |
MzJackBaueress:Berem, when did you previously say genbuhari is a disgrace to his moniker? He's a good guy nau. What did he do? Take it easy, please. Though I'm not sure about all he posted here since I haven't read everything, American foreign policy IS dastardly evil. Fact! Especially when it comes to the liberation and true independence of African people. |
You've got some nerve, buddy. ![]() Look at him with his shiny teeth. |
O ye o ye, my people! All is well. Katsumoto has been located. He resurfaced in Politics section. ![]() Good thing. And not a moment too soon, 'cos I was about to send out a search party for him. You know. . . a 'posse' of his greatest admirers and compadres, including the knights of my round table. ![]() |
Desola: mea culpa. I keep meaning to properly greet all my favourite people. Everytime I turn around a corner, I see someone I haven't seen in a while - mostly due to my absence and not theirs. Hi, Chucky! Ajatonlewolf. Everyone else. ![]() I'm not greeting you, Desola. Fuggetaboutit! |
Katsumoto:Your pal, Naijababe. And Desola. . . ![]() BTW, glad to know you're alive n' kicking, Katsumoto! |
AjanleKoko:How dare you call odindi OYB the M-word? ![]() Hi, Berem. Obiagelli, etc. Sorry I didnt reply your posts sooner. Still can't believe we made it! Sai Buhari! Sai The People's General! ![]() |
