You are already talking out of context. You said other people can't live in SouthEast while those living in SouthEast that are not Igbos are what Ghosts or half-humans?? Always changing goal post.

I said people can't live in SE in large numbers, I believe u didn't see that one, u are not even in context before u know what we are talking about.
Go to Benue, count d lgb0s u meet in a street, go to Enugu and do same, u will realize that all d forèîgñèrs in Enugu combined from all trîbès are not up to half of d number of lgb0s living in Benue.
SE is too hostile for non lgb0s, very tribalistic region.
I have been to all 5 SE states, I know how u folks behave, discrimination àgàinst one another is ur Daily bread.

EmekaA125:
Blame ur people for not exploring or travelling beyond their region. Igbos can't force you from ur red mud in Oshogbo or Ogbomosho to come and live in SouthEast. Those with the boldness are doing well for themselves and have integrated with the society. Benin-City, Bayelsa, Cross-River, Benue, Taraba, Nasarawa etc are not Igboland yet ur people are very few there. Primitive mugus

I am not from SW.
The ratio of lgb0s in Benue to that of Benue people in SE is 50:1, same as Nasarawa, Taraba and all d states u mentioned.
No trîbè can live comfortably in SE, nobody wakes up from his state and say "I want to go and live in SE" and make a life there like u lgb0s do in other regions, why?
SE is even hostile to lgb0s talk more of non lgb0s.
I once had a friend in d building material market in my place that's dominated by lgb0s 97%, he had a challenge and I told him to approach his fellow business men, he told me that the level of h8 and pull down syndrome in their line here is too much, he said if u want to grow, doñ't ever ask anyone in this line for support, they are rather looking to pull each other down.
They are all lgb0s in a strange land showing each other h8red.

Godspikin:
Igbos are not even tribalistic but clannish. It's even worse than being tribalistic cos clan is a subset of tribe.

Imagine Abia State government sacking civil servants who are from Anambra, whereas in Ondo state where I am from there are so many igbos in our civil service, same for Lagos State.

Some parts of the South East don't like marrying from Ebonyi. Yet we Yorubas intermarry with the Igbos.

When others are showing you that you can be accomodating and allow others thrive in your domain, you want to ride roughshod over them.

Within Enugu, it's difficult for them to marry from Nsukka.
Do u know d weight the description "Ony'abakiliki" carries in Onitsha?
Sounds Iike that person shouldn't be in same society with them.
U described them with d perfect word.

PPIA:
Distinguished Nairalanders, Ladies and Gentlemen,

It is with great pleasure that I stand before you today to celebrate the remarkable victory of Reverend Father Hycenth Iormem Alia in the just concluded gubernatorial election in Benue State.

Reverend Father Hycenth Iormem Alia's victory in the election has been nothing short of spectacular. He won in a massive landslide victory as the flag bearer of the All Progressives Congress (APC), defeating his closest rivals from other political parties such as the People's Democratic Party (PDP) and the Labour Party (LP).

This is a victory that speaks to the courage and resilience of a man who has dedicated his life to the service of God and humanity. Reverend Father Hycenth Iormem Alia's journey to becoming the Governor of Benue State has been an inspiring one, and his victory is a testament to the power of faith, hard work, and dedication.

As a man of God, Reverend Father Hycenth Iormem Alia has always been committed to serving others. His vision for Benue State is one that is rooted in the values of equity, justice, and progress. He has promised to lead with integrity, transparency, and accountability, ensuring that the people of Benue State are at the center of his administration's policies and programs.

Reverend Father Hycenth Iormem Alia's victory is not just a victory for the APC, but it is also a victory for the people of Benue State. His victory sends a powerful message to the rest of the country that leadership is not just about politics or power, but it is also about service to the people.

As we celebrate this victory, let us not forget the challenges that lie ahead. There is much work to be done, and Reverend Father Hycenth Iormem Alia cannot do it alone. He needs the support of the people of Benue State to make his vision a reality. We must all work together to build a better future for our state, a future that is prosperous, just, and equitable.

In conclusion, I congratulate Reverend Father Hycenth Iormem Alia on his historic victory in the just concluded gubernatorial election in Benue State. I wish him all the best as he assumes office and begins the task of leading our state towards a brighter future. Let us all unite behind him and work towards building a better Benue State. Thank you.

I would have loved to see d results, u have d link, I don't want IReV.

pillarmaria:
Fr Alia is loved but I hate the fact that he promoted Tinubu in Benue, and he puts his political ambition ahead of the Church and people that believe in social justice.

He promotes a leader that will work with him and help him deliver his vision.
It's simple.

That's a fact

EmekaA125:
Where in SouthEast had what happened in Lagos today ever happened?? Show evidence that Igbos are tribalistic

What happened in Lagos today cañ't happen in SE because SE is not welcoming to other trîbès.
Few weeks ago, elders in Enugu had an open meeting where they swore that someone whose grandfather was from Ebonyi will never rule Enugu.
U lgb0s are so tribalistic other people can't live in ur place in large numbers before they think of doing half of what u are doing in Lagos.

Goodmarlian:
Watch out! This year go full of katakata,Tinubus government will be like no other in Nigeria history thanks to hatred displayed by his brothrrs i dont expect much from the southeest because them no get liver but trust me something will happen this year,Nigerians voted jonathan,Nigerians voted buhari,but Nigerians never gave emilokan the mandate to rule over us Inec voted tinubu not Nigerians Revolution or division is inevitable this year urchins will not believe it they will insult me as usual,Nigerias case is already decided in the spirit realm just manifestation na him remain brace up and store food for your survival.

Threads like this come up after u see ur emptiness at the polls.

Jnkay:
Tinubu is the worst thing that happened to the Yorubas. See how we Yorubas showed our true colors of tribalism and hatred. How would we feel if Igbos did these to us in Onitsha or Aba. I am really ashamed of the immaturity we Yorubas displayed in this Election. I thought we said we are more educated.

SE is the only zone in Nigèria that has less number of forèîgñèrs.
U are talking about a Yoruba trying that in Onitsha?
Even an Enugu man will not dream of doing that in ABA or Onitsha talk more of a Yoruba, they will sqûàsh u before u think it through.
U don't know SE, u think it's friendly to other people?

Asgard13:
The myopic brain of a typical Yoruba man without common sense

Tribalism has eaten this one brains like food .. he likes food anyways .. maybe he don eaten his brain join

Fani kayode is a typical Yoruba man.. a Yoruba elite and sophisticated almajiris..

Sense is far from him .. like ewure ..

No trîbè is more bîgóted in Nîgèrîa than the lgb0s and I am not a Yoruba.

padi94:
See the people that started this rubbish is APC politicians... They are the ones making it about tribe... There are many omoale that are tired of APC. the Igbos supported GRV cos of party affiliation and Peter Obi links. If you sow hate you will reap hatred. Before now did the Igbos not support SANWO, TINUBU and APC in Lagos??

Igbos are a tool... Use them in Lagos they have the numbers. But instead APC decided to fight them hence the election outcome. LP will depose some of the APC and PDP state House of rep members cos of this APC sowing division along tribal lines. Politics does not have permanent friend nor permanent enemy, just permanent interest.

After the presidential election where APC lost Lagos they decided to instigate the obidients, who are made up of 50% Igbos, 30% Omoale and 20% other tribes. and combined these make up over 80% voters in Lagos.

A sword has two sides if you hold the sharp edge you're in trouble, but if you hold the handle they are in trouble, APC decided to hold the sharp edge, with their political gimmicks by muddling up Igbos and obidients into one. But they are different people.

Ps: I am neither Igbo nor Yoruba. I am just speaking from a neutral point of view and in fairness to the situation.

U prèteñd u didn't hear what d lgb0s were saying after d election two weeks ago right?
U prèteñd u didn't hear them emphasizing they own Lagos because Obi won in Lagos right?
lgb0s built this particular fire and çrying foul today.

MESSAGE TO IGBO PEOPLE IN LAGOS.

One of the few lessons I learnt from today's gubernatorial election in Lagos, is that I have no reason to engage in local politics among the indigenous people of Lagos. I think this should be my last time to campaign for any governorship candidate in Lagos. I will urge all Igbo people resident in Lagos to withdraw from supporting or voting for any gubernatorial candidate of any party during gubernatorial elections in Lagos. We need to give the Yoruba people chance to select or elect whoever they like to govern them. We will support whoever they elected as their governor. Tribalism and ethnic sentiments are real in Nigeria.

If we want to campaign for a gubernatorial candidate, lets campaign for any candidate of our choice contesting for elective position in our various states of origin even though we lives in Lagos. This is not only applicable to Lagos but all the Yoruba and non Igbo states. Remember that we Igbo people has ability to relate with anybody even if they elected king Nebuchadnezzar, it is not our business but we will relate with the governor and still get what we wanted.

We might be tempted to support a particular candidate we felt is better than whom the indigenous Yoruba people felt is their choice. But we must resist every attempt to endorse anyone of them. It is time we start to disassociate ourselves from any Yoruba politician hoping to win an election with the block votes of Igbo people living in Lagos. Enough of this please. Let him go and convince his fellow Yoruba people to vote for him and stop hoping to win election with our votes. The Yoruba people must stop seeing every election in Lagos as contest between the Igbo people and the Yorubas.

It is also high time Igbo people begin to transfer their polling units to Southeast for those of us living outside Igboland but would like to participate in governorship election of our state. We will travel down to Southeast when it is time to elect president and the governors. But if we can't transfer our polling units to SOUTHEAST, let's stop voting during gubernatorial election in each state of the federation. But we can go out and vote for our favorite presidential candidate.

It is obvious that many Yoruba people that supported Peter Obi during presidential election did so because of fear of Tinubu's Muslim/Muslim ticket. They voted Peter Obi not because they like him, it is because he is more preferred than having Tinubu and Shettima in Aso Rock . If another popular Southwestern politician was contesting for presidency with Muslim/Christian ticket, they would have voted him than voting Peter Obi. Only few Yorubas are supporting Peter Obi based on his capacity and competence.

Today's gubernatorial election was a total waste of taxpayers money. This is not an election. Now I agree that NIGERIA is a failed state. Police couldn't even protect the themselves not to talk of protecting the voters .

As for me, let Peter Obi withdraw his court case against INEC and APC . Let him concentrate on snatching all Southeastern states from our good-for-nothing politicians and raise a crop of 21st century politicians that will govern all the states in Igbo land and turn them into livable and prosperous states.

Many Nigerians are not ready for real change. They wanted to change failures we have in Aso Rock as leaders but they never wanted to change same corrupt politicians operating in their states.

Copied

How much did Obi himself transform Anambra into a liveable and prosperous state in 8 years?
He ran away from his fàilûres.

Ayodeoba:
imagine obizelensky the shipopotamus woman talking thrash when their own house is burning in southeast, na Lagos matter dem carry for head

Na Lagos be thèîr problem.

Antivirus92:
harassing you online which other parties apc included did too...

Harassing you is same as stabbing people, threatening them or beating them up.....



Remember, you guys started this.....

U started urs since May, making videos, and all sorts of mûd smearing, why complaining about choice now when u practically took away people's power choice from them.

Proudlyomonna:
Says who??
Nija is one Country and so anyone can be in Lagos doing their business legitimately.
Btw you are on your own,You can't tell anyone to go when the true owners of the Land awon omo Ibile Eko has not said so.
Na your village for Ogbomosho, Oyo, Ibadan etc you go go do that nonsense.
May the reign of whoever wins bring peace and prosperity to our beautiful Lagos State.
Eko lo kan.
Up Labour everywhere.

Ok.
Don't complain again then.

LAFOCUZY:
False. And stop. You can shut a people up for speaking about their preference. Or are you supporting this??

Ok. Am old enough to know that good and evil gravitates to those who promote it

The last time I checked, LP supporters are d ones harassing other people for their preference since May 2022, why playing d victim card here?

Ayodeoba:
I swear the ignite the fire by threaten, bullying everyone that doesn’t support their candidate, now my people have decided to give them back! Fire for fire

After the presidential election, they started talking like it was lgb0s that gave Obi Lagos so they will do it again in this election and now they are beaten.

ejimatic:
How many have you seen now? They are in INEC IREV. You can assess them and calcute them. APC is leading!

The images always download before it shows, does it happen with yours too?

Proudlyomonna:
Shut up,the true owners of Lagos State awon omo Ibile Eko do not have any issues with Igbos or anyother Tribes in Lagos.
Nah APC thugs and zombies dey ferment trouble bcus all the APC structure is ever known for is electorial thuggery and criminalities.
We stand with the Landlord of Lagos State this time not His brothers from Ijebu, Oyo, Ibadan, Oshogbo etc.
May the reign of whoever wins bring peace and prosperity to our beautiful Lagos State.
Eko lo kan.
Up Labour everywhere.

Go to ur yeast.

fatdick:
We definitely expected all these narratives from them. It's their modus operandi. After causing problem, they quickly hide and claim victim. Same thing with the civil war. And they will never learn, that's the saddest part.

Always playing vîctîm card.

So by this, we all agreed Grooves is an lgb0 càndidàte.

Peritome:
"Truth" don't do argument. Wait & see.

U said Tinubu didn't win, tell me who won then

Yagier:
what they are trying in Lagos can’t be tried in anambra….too much hypocrisy

lgb0s made d election tribaI and they are playing d victim card now.
They don't tolerate each other in SE.
Onye Nsukka, Ony'abakiliki.
They have a nasty way of dissing each other.
Listen to their radio stations and u will be hearing them argûîñg who is d real lgbo or not.

Peritome:
You & I know Jagaban didn't win. Even the birds of the air know that.

So who won?
Can u tell me?

APC would have lost the election big time.

Peritome:
Yea, true. I was actually rooting for him before Obi came into the space. APC & Tinubu made a huge mistake. Tinubu would have remain like an elder stateman still issuing directive from behind through Osinbajo.

But God open our eyes through Obi & the OBIdient structure. God knows best.

A huge mistake?
After winning elections?

LocalStandard1:
I Thank God Obi came. His coming opened my eyes about the Yoruba and many things in Nigeria.

If not for Peter Obi I would have sheepishly followed your Osibanjo and gulped down every sh*t these bigots put up. Now I am awaken, I can say I have learned something from the 2015 elections that's all about raw propaganda and gaslighting.

Then if you look at it well again, Peter Obi's coming has sort of liberated the Middle Belt people. With a small party like Labour Party winning states like Nasarawa, Plateau, Abuja and doing well in Taraba, Kaduna, Benue. There's almost no way to describe this sweeping. We have a Labour Party Candidate in Kaduna too, let's see how it goes.

With a third big political party in Nigeria today the people will have the options to choose who they want based off of the performance of the various Party governors.
Peter Obi is a miracle!

What did LP win in Benue?

YorubaSamurai:
if igbos dont want hatred, they should fight and get biafra

lgb0s dish out h8red as much as they get, they instigate d h8red against themselves with their mouths.
As it stands, they have dèstróyèd thèîr agitations for at least 8 years, they have to boycott federal elections to prove they are not interested in Nigeria.
Right now, they have blown their slim Biafra chances.

Taba21:
The best thing for Igbo now is to start agitating for Biafra cos they won't bear this hates for 8 years.

I always told lgb0s ñèvèr to abandon their agitations, now who will take them serious in another 8 years even with agitations?

God1000:
But it's too early, why not wait till tomorrow when things will be clearer.

So far Labour party is still sweeping some places

U are seeing the streets, results from all polling units are already on his table.

GogetterMD:
I get you, but regardless, he is still the flag bearer for APC, so you can't separate the party from the candidate

He is a better option for them than PDP.
U don't expect them to follow what u want to satisfy ur sentîmeñts while they suffer under PDP.
