Terrible, impatience, just like the Lagos BRT Driver that tried to cross the track quickly even when some passengers were asking him to wait and caused the death of 16 people.
There's no way the driver would not have noticed he was crossing a train track, even kindergarten kids are thought to look left and right before crossing

Na government go dey hold the hands of impatient adults to cross roads and train tracks abi?

I understand you perfectly.What if the train didn't alert other road users that it was approaching the junction?What if it was a tanker loaded with petrol that the train crushed? Railway staffs are supposed to be there 247...There suppose to be a barricade to stop vehicles from passing when a train is approaching...It happens everytime in ilupeju bye pass..Even Yaba that is busier is safer than this ilupeju own..

richie240:
It's not the duty of govt to induce 'patience', Oga.

You don't understand my point..Ive lived in that area for decades and I know that spot very well.....If you know that junction very well, you should know that there are solutions..There used to be barricades there being operated by railway staffs but nowadays, no railway staff is there..A friend lost his parents there almost 25 years ago in that same spot.

The dss doesn't know that Okoya is one of the pillars of Lagos state..

CoronaVirusPro:
They are hate filled and will look for anything to blame His Excellency, President Asiwaju Bola Ahmed Tinubu (GCFR)

Don't mind them..merchants of fake products.

Are you not aware that Shettima already visited those locations.
These people sha

babasolution:
The major influence were not the Ibadan but yoruba missionaries,and British colonialist who promoted the use of Yoruba as lingua franca like they did with Hausa in the north,
Yoruba influence has been watered down over the years however

This was what you said "Yoruba became an influential language there,around the time of the Ibadan invasion there from the 1850s"

Why was Yoruba language not promoted in the south east, benin city etc but only in Akoko edo.

Warrior99:
These people are exporting crime from their region to the SW and the North!

From fake drugs, fake wine and drinks to baby factory, child trafficking and kidnapping!

Something has to be done about this...

Fake drugs, fake wine, fake drinks producers are killers..They are supposed to die by hanging..Looking at it, these are the reasons investors are leaving the country.
God go punish all these fake products producers laslas

babasolution:

Does it mean we can call the place a Yorubaland by conquest.

babasolution:
Akoko-ondo comprises some from Yoruba origins while some including idoani have Benin origins,but Akoko-edo are mainly Edo originates

There are Igbiras in akoko edo, yorubas and benin..Why didn't they choose Benin as their lingua franca but instead chose Yoruba language.
I think Yoruba influence is more visible in akoko edo than other tribes.

Tjra:
You sef sabi am...

Taylor92 moniker don cast, guy man don rebrand himself to Aquafina.

These guys are always too ashamed to be identified with their region. Same region they want independence for.

Selling car seatbelts at Ikokwu spare part market in Portharcourt does not make one a Rivers boys neither does Selling Gala & Lacasera in Lagos traffic for years make one a Lagosian.

Be proud of who you are just like Yoruba people.

This inferiority complex is sickening.

That's why they easily lost their history once they leave their region.Northerners sef dey use them catch cruise..

babasolution:
Is Akoko-edo not in northern Edo,it is not yoruboid, you can simply Google it,their languages are all edoid,except akpes,ikaan which is unclassified, ogori-magongo is independent

Ogori magongo is in Kogi state

babasolution:
Akeredolu is from owo not akoko

True but they are Yorubas.

peckhamboi:
Every group wants to be Yoruba.

Greatness is not by force.

Greatness no be by force nor attache..The other upcoming tribe will not like this news.

Everybody dey rush Yoruba tribe..Yoruba lagba...Unlike some mediocres claiming they are from Isxxxl..

AqualinaXYZ:
Exactly



Tell your Yoruba leaders to let my Governor breath

Taylor from Abia you again..why can't you be proud of your origin

illicit:
They were Yoruba

They assimilated or were assimilated by other languages and culture overtime

Met several Ibilo and Somorika folks that have Yoruba names


🦖

Imagine saying Akoko Ondo are not Yorubas..Go and tell the Akeredolus that that are not Yorubas..You go explain tire.

Foxie:
Yeah. At at about 9:10pm

Can't the government do something on that road to stop these?.. May God see us through in 2023 and beyond.

Ilupeju bypass again??

PoloG:
Seun is falling for igbo gimmicks.

they are calling you tribalists because they are at the receiving end.

why them nor call zukerberg or musk tribalists too as the wotowoto sef reach there?

we love nairaland as it is.

Igbos are a cursed people who like to always play the victim card. They will bring hatred but want you to love them in return.

yoruba is not fulani you were insulting anyhow during buhari tenure.

If you bring hatred, you get hatred promax

Let me go back to twitter and insult igbos the more jare

God bless you..
Yorubas dey give them wotowoto online and offline.
These are the same people that were happy when Nairaland was down because Nairaland is owned by someone from another tribe.
Those people are complaining because they are not having upper hand.We know their antics.

You have enough evidence to retrieve your money. Waste no time in taking action. Visit their office this morning with a lawyer and some security personnel.

After placing your winnings as void, their next step is to disable your account. Act fast and be aggressive. Don't dull

They may disable the guy's account. The guy should just screenshot whatever he can on the page

walefresh3:
We love Enugu.... We love brown roofs

This is Ogui layout..The funny thing is Ogui layout is Enugu business district oo like their own Marina...Obiagu and Uwani are other areas with brown roofs in Enugu

These people always like to align with the government at the center.

Among Tinubu's children, I think Seyi is the closest to Tinubu.
Lovely family photo.

OGwales:
Make Una help us beg our SadEast blurdas, the makers and distributors of everything FAKE in naija.

Una know Una selves. Una even keel Una own sister, Aunty Dora

Imagine, they want to kill everybody with their fake products..Na God go punish them laslas..its too much

Is adulteration of renowned brands not enough to scare investors? These are same set of people giving the country a bad name outside the country and later blame the President all because he's not your tribesman.
We need to change our attitudes in this country. Some people see just wicked...Imagine giving human beings what is not good for human consumption to drink just because they see it as a business. It's well oo.

Dpharisee:
Very stupid explanation, as if Nigerians abhor leaving in luxury but loves living in old dilapidated rustic buildings.
What you see there is a reflection of the economic situation of the country and not just Ibadan.

Dubai, Medina, Mecca and Rome are older than Ibadan and should have retained their thatched houses from the days of Prophet Muhammad to preserve the history of Islam and Christianity.

Some of those cities he mentioned in England cost the City Council so much annually to maintain the integrity of those structures for historical purposes and many are even unoccupied because of the cost of modernising them, how much does our state governments spend to maintain the rustic buildings across the country, all they do is bring up statistics that 4,5m people in Oyo or Enugu state still defecate in the open and lack access to portable water, where does these 4.5m people live, its in those old rustic buildings.

Reno should rest abeg, Tinubu has heard about his Ronuing activities but doesn't have space for more appointments in his cabinet

Please don't be emotional..If you don't agree with Renos post, you are free to object with proofs..Reno just said there is a bye law to preserve the old buildings for tourism purpose.Meanwhile, they are new residential areas in Ibadan...Ibadan is larger than the areas with red roofs you see.

opamoses1:
I actually learnt a lot from Reno's post. That guy is very knowledgeable.

Not only you bro..I heard for the first time that there is a bye-law to preserve these old buildings for tourism purposes...Ibadan to the world.

Okwyjesus:
Na so PH quiet. I drove out and everywhere looks dry.
Everyone is important

Even Enugu town is deserted...All major towns are expected to be because of the long holiday and it's end of the year.This is not about tribe.

COMPAQ:
Which elumelu. Elumelu that was forex round-trip per with crystal bank and standard trust before buying uba.

Fact..luckily for him, He escaped with his loot.

Ayus34:
You better leave those people with their propaganda.

Several government agencies has patronized innoson,even states in the southwest such as Osun state aswell but they will keep shouting marginalization,their problem is entitlement mentality.

He even claimed that innoson is the only indigenous automaker in the country,when we have Proforce owned by a typical Yoruba man and have been in business for years,same as Nord motors.

We also have several indigenous and local automakers that assembled heavy duty vehicles like dangote trucks etc.

So I always like to advice people to ignore them and allow them to Celebrate their ignorance.

Its annoying the way they always claim they are being maginalised.They will never blame their state governments.They lie too much

SharingIsLife:
Good to know this airport was named after that great literary bulldozer.


Also, I'm pleasantly surprised to learn that we might have indigenous Yorubas in Anambra.

Those who can't afford beer say that it is bitter. Do you honestly think that South East is not doing well in terms of economic viability? Or, you just want to destroy something because you envy it as all failures do?

In case you are ignorant, let me educate you a bit: South east is the only place in Nigeria where you have whole towns devoted to unique industries powered by local manpower from top to down. Think of Nnewi and Aba. If not for small Southeast, there would have been no indigenous automobile maker in this big country. And all these without government support and amid government oppression.

Some of you only try to see all these from the negative angles because of your dirty minds by saying that they are copying other people's products. But then, you go to China to buy products copied from the United States.

Innoson that is enjoying BOI loan and federal government patronage...Proforce in Ogun state is also an automobile maker.

Goodvibes007:
Regionalism favoured us till our brothers from the east scattered everything. And as expected, the region is still the most prosperous in Nigeria till date.as it was back decades and centuries ago.

They will say otherwise....Thats why Yoruba elders have always been at the forefront of regionalism unlike their own elders that cunningly want one Naijeria because they are gaining from it.
