even among apc crooks falana is unworthy

You say whatever of deportation of destitutes on Lagos streets. Fashola did not go inside igbo's house in lagos for deportation, they were taking under the bridge. He defended himself before the senate.

The only people misinforming people here are you Yorubas desperately trying to rewrite history. Yorubas only did stage plays and Dramas not Cinema movies.

How old is clearance peters his father met his mother in a cinema movie called owo lagba by baba sala in the early 80s

ask your elder dont mislead people on net. Youriba has been exporting cinema films to Europe since 70s

winniz:
They were all local Yoruba Dramas not Cinema films watched only by you lots. So the only people who should be ashamed of themselves are You Yorubas trying to rewrite history.

Yes they were yoruba films watched in Europe . Tell your igbo film that shown in Europe in the 80s apart from things fall apart.

winniz:
Stop misinforming people, what Clarion Chukwurah did then were stage plays not Cinema films.

I am sure you were not born when the cinema was produced by moses olaiya known as baba sala . But you can ask your elders so that you don't transfer trash to children cos of tribal sentiment .

Noneroone:
Are you lots only being stupid or do you mean to annoy people with common sense.
we all know the difference between soap opera, cinema and home video. cinema and soap opera predates nollywood. both Igbos and yolobas started cinema and soaps before nollywood which was heralded by "living in bondage"
Before living in bondage there was ichoku, village headmaster, things fall apart, zebrudaya etc many actor of nollywood like nkem owoh pete edochie, pete eneh, fabian adibe, sam loco efe, justus esiri etc featured in things fall apar,t yet it is not considered part of nollywood because it was not on VHS

Yolobas only acted stage performances and later soapopera. Therfore Igbo founded and "owns" nollywood. even at that Igbos have more popular tv series and soaps. Dont get too emotional about it.

When people say trash on the net we will get emotional.
How can somebody say nollywood made olu jacob popular . Where was that boy when olu jacob acted in Cl5 an american detective serie in USA.
You can say an igbo coin the worlD nollywood but yoruba has been acting cinema and showing them to people in europe as far back as early 70s .
Igbo guys on nairaland should stop getting tribalise on educative discusion.

That only depicted why jamb will settle for 180 over 400 as cut off. I score 286 to get second batch admission to accounting in O A U.

My point is, igbo producers made them popular when they we're featuring them in nollywood films. These guys became popular and rich then started yorubawood championed by jide kosoko due to the tussle in leadership of actors guild.

This is known fact

You may be pardon because that is that your age can take.
Yoruba start doing films in the early 70s and were shown in cinema in Europe. Please dont teach your children this.

winniz:
Abeg see lie, which Cinema movies were Yorubas producing? Yorubas were only acting stage play and dramas.

it shows that many of you on nairaland are babys.
Ask your fathers about ogunde , Ade love and Baba sala their films were taking to Europe brtween 70s and 80s beforr your nollywoof came in.

Super story indeed!

Ojo ladipo whatever is yoloba concern. Do u know ichoku?

The world does not end in yoloba land. Nollywood brot these actors to national appeal.

U know the truth but trying to hide it.

Ask ur father, he will tell u better.

it is your father that never educate you about nigeria. Ogunde film , Baba sala film and Ade love films were shown in many western countries before you were born.

Just tell me one igbo cinema firmthat was shown outside nigeria , l dont mean your english film .

This is why u fail exam.

Acting on stage and acting home movie is not the same.

I never said he wasn't acting before nollywood, but nollywood made him popular and rich.

Started hearing about olu jacob during nollywood featuring.

How do u expect me a non yoloba to know olu jacob when he was acting on stage.[/quote

no yoi are wrong , where were you when olu jacob acted Cl5 in american after graduating from american film college in early 80s.

SO How would nollywood have made him popular .
Again that is as far as your age know , ask your elder brfore you will go write rubosh in exams.
national theater is a federal builfing not yoruba if you were not born when nstional theater was reigning let me no .

DikeOha882:
They think the world end in youruba world

No the world never end with yoruba but people can not come here to say rubish for us to accept it.
Olu jacob acted film on America after graduating from america firm college in late 70s and did life stage play and fo better for worse between 70s and 80s .
Yoruba dont take trash.

Thunder blast off Ur oblong head, anu mpama!

Go ask olu Jacobs who made him what he is. Ask him why he always act Igwe.

U are a cretinous bastard!

How old are you ? Ask your father when olu jacob sarted acting as a king on life stage film at national theater in the 70s . That was what igbo brother when they invited him to put flavour into nollywood .

you are a baby dont say what you cant defend .

yaskarahyelhope:
Yorubas are terrible bleachers. Unfortunately d non Yoruba indigenes av joined d bleaching game. Some of their films are educative but Y can't they do without visiting herbalist? If its not white garment wearers and fake prophets, na Mallam wey sabi yi karatu. Kai! Their diabolism is irritating.

MAJORITY of the american firm you love are about their culture and not yours , so herbalist and white garment etc are part of yoruba culture.

Maybe your tribe has no culture to exhibit.

U are accomodating lagoon.

U lots are ungrateful bastards.

Igbos used their money to start nollywood. Living in bondage. Igbos pumped money into this sector and made it attractive. Ask Olu Jacobs, Desmond Elliot, Jide Kosoko etc who brought them into limelight.

Today u ppl want to rewrite history as usual.

you are the trying to rewrite history. The firm industry has been in existence before you born.
I finished primary school in 1980 and my brothers do take me to national theater and watch Olu Jacob and his wife acting stage film .
Also Ogunde , Baba sala and Ade love (kunle Afolayan's father) did many of their movies before nollywood came in.
our Televisions were showing movies by many yoruba film groups like Ojo Ladipo (Aluwe, ogs bello, iya awero, jide kosoko etc) baba sala (it was one of his movies that featured clara chukwura and sinna Peters when they gave birth to a son.

There so many so film groups before nollywood was cpined by your igbo brothers.

I want to believe you wrote as your age can take. Nollywood never brought any of thos actor to limelight.

Its because of this dichotomy i had to leave my precious yabatech for uniosun.

Wise decision my guy

delectablegyal:
Nd lasan gan is equivalent to bsc, nt to talk of hnd.
In fact, HND is higher dan b.sc in terms of quality education. The p is just dat we have s.tupid govt.
Who prioritize b.sc over hnd.

If truly buhari belongs to everybody and belongs to nobody, polytechnics should start awarding degrees.

Why didnt you go to technical college instead of polytechnic ? This agitation will be fruitless because.
They were set up for different purposes. You made your choice but you what to eat your cake and have it. NO no

pet4ril:
I tire when some BSC's can't stand some of the ND holders not to talk of HND in some institutions. ..especially in terms of practical fields

Yes it can happen likewise some HND can not construct good sentence.

It cant happen in this country , the white paper for establishing polytechnic was for middle mgt.
But you may advice your sibling to go to university.

Lemon12:
bro Lagos was never a Yoruba land ....... Aworis The first occupants of Lagos said they are not yorubas

Then Awori must be igbo or hausa , the land still belong to some people but not igbo .
Come think of it , hausa or fulani never make such statement .

RickyTan:
Hello Brother - the debate is not whether Lagos had kings or not. We know the answer. Lagos is historical Yoruba land and Yorubas had kings way back when. The issue is that Lagos The Mega City - that we all love and are proud off became Lagos because of certain things that NO other part of Nigeria or City in Nigeria enjoyed. It was exclusive to Lagos - it became designated as Nigeria's capital city.

Now it has shifted to Abuja and Abuja has blossomed.

We are not debating history. We know the history.
Today Lagos is a Mega City and Lagosians are varied. It is a fact.

Leave inside it , enjoy your business and make your money. Remember it was only lagos and sw state that allow igbo regain thier property after civil war, norterner claimed all in their domain.
Nobody should call lagos no mans land. Abuja also belong to a tribe from niger and nassarawa state. Thanks

Lemon12:
for inciting genocide on a tribe

What did ojukwu did to his brother, inciting death on his tribe.
It was a stament that can have several interpretations.

AikayDaWrapper:
Well then our English vocabulary has combined two words for such people.

arrogant + fo.ol

hat was never a statement but fact , which ever tribe you come i believe you know your dos and dont. Lagos still remains yorubaland.
Tell igbo to learn kano killing upon all igbo investment in kano. You cant rule people in their land. Other tribe accomodate you to trade and make money. You want to slap them with your money.

Let your icc humilate our Oba, igbo are in for suck.

teamchocolate:
Then ur not yoruba.. a Yoruba Oba can NEVER apologise... he will rather die

That is fact

teamchocolate:
@ severus why are u cursing the Oba online.... if u live in Lagos and are so bold, u can go to his palace and go and curse him there... ode!!

There is only one tribe that has no respect for their elders. You only exhibite your cultural belief here.

Lemon12:
mark mine too

... Oba is on his way to jail

Jail for alteration , is that equal to murder ? Wake up from your slumber .

Rotimi47:
june 12 was majorly a Yoruba thing as all other tribes left the Yorubas to carry their cross alone, the igbos ran away from Lagos and everywhere they were leaving in the south west saying now the Yorubas most fight their own civil war; that I will never forget because your people left Lagos and the south west in very large numbers, it was like an exodus. So stop lying behind your teeth.

Thanks , igbo wanted 2000 yoruba casualties from june 12 but yoruba fought with brain not cutlass.
Tinubu that they all hate lead NADECO operation with radio kudurat that got international intervention which gave birth to democracy today.

RickyTan:
Of course Lagos preceded oil but it was NOT the mega city that it has become. Today Lagos is probably the biggest city in all of AFRICA. We are all very proud of Lagos. Trying to exclude anybody is courting disaster and problems.

Lagos grew to Mega City status because of Nigerian oil resources and because it was Nigeria's capital. Just Like Abuja has grown because of Nigerian oil resources and because it is Nigeria's capital.

Cut it short , most of you are lad and not well schooled. Discovery oil was not with jigger but money gotten from coaco, groundnut and palm oil.
Majoriy of the development in lagos was from sw, ask your elder the place call boundary and western avenue in lagos. SW then was from ojuelegba below.
Meanwhile, history confirm that calabar was the first colonial seat of power it also have river/port . What attracted them to lagos "development and exposure.

RickyTan:
He is your son, but without the critical contribution of others (infusion of Nigerian resources and federal capital designation) he will not be a world renowned doctor (mega city Lagos). He would have been like your other sons which did not receive the critical contribution (like Osogbo city). No big deal.

My point is simple Lagos is no different from Abuja.

Does it mean that lagos was enmity or without king before white men name it capital. Or why do you say it is for everybody.
That was the reason Awolowo strategically end civil war. It is work of brain and not musscle .

RickyTan:
Lagos is Nigerian land- Nigeria's former capital and was built with Nigerian oil resources. The international airport (Murtala Muhammad Airport and deep sea ports) gave Lagos big advantages.

Lagos belongs to everybody - Yoruba, Igbo and Hausa and others included. So go tell a Hausa land owner or Igbo land owner that bought the property with their hard earned money and sweat and tears that the land is not theirs.

People (including the Oba of Lagos) need to be more guarded in their comments. But it is also clear that the Oba of Lagos in the heat of election cycle mispoke.

Your iboland cant develop beyond you because you dont sell land to non-igbo but lease. Let see what happen all your properties in Lagos after you biafra succeded.

HungerBAD:
Have you not said things and you instantly regret it? And you hide your head in shame privately?

This is an OBA Who used poor words, but could not for the sake of the Office he holds, make a formal public apology.

But of course his foot soldiers, left and right were apologizing on his behalf, this included top politicians, common sense will tell you he sent them to apologize.

What kind of remorse did you want him to show? Take a full advertorial on a National Newspaper to beg?

You guys should let a sleeping dog enjoys it's nap, after eating biscuit bone.

If your culture donot teach you, Oba is next to God in yoruba land.he cant apology to his subject, your icc can do their worst. Where is icc when ibb and Abacha were kill the ogoni. You went to icc for mere a world of month.

tuniski:
u don't get it. Those SW states were already Apc before the election but, the middle belt states made a complete change from PDP to APC. Even benue that u reference Akume will be taken by pdp. The pain caused by suswan was what led to the revolt. The total margin of victory of buhari in the entire SW is under 600k but, kwara's margin alone is about that. The real effect is the middle belt. This spread to adamawa. U easily forgot that buhari won with only 2.5m margin not 25m margin. He is the president with only 3% margin for error. I don't envy him cos 3% is no safety in Politics.

A winner is a winner whether with a mark or a point or a minute as is the case in classor in race or on track. A winner will go with first position or gold medal while you looser keep saying its just a point. Learn accept defeat and move forward.

PROVACATEUR:
if the *uncle* apellation makes people rich then by now the yorubas will be exporting billionares.

With money igbo will disrespect father and mother, reason why igbo man rush to make money any how.
