I knew your sentiments will make you oblivious to the points of my reply so I highlight them out for you here.

1) Agbaje is running against Sanwo-olu in Lagos State. Sanwo has never for once whipped up tribal sentiments. He has never disregarded Igbo people. if you say Agbaje was referring to 2015, Sanwo-olu didn't campaign in 2015, so how can you blame Sanwo for that? if Na Ambode JK dey run against now, you for get talk.

2) Where did Igbos ever report that they faced harassment in Lagos only because they were Igbo? where? Bring links of news reporting this otherwise you're a stone faced liar. If you want to talk about where shops were demolished to make way for road construction, Igbos alone weren't the victim. Never were there the sole victim.

3) Let me make it clear to you, where in any states of the South South that an Igbo man came from Abia, Anambra, Enugu etc to hold political posts? Where? After all, There are sizeable amount of Igbos in that region too.

Truth is, if any Igbo want to run for office in Lagos, it's a privilege and not a right. Never a right. You are even talking as if if a Yoruba man wants to run for office in Ebonyi, Igbo people would agree.

Abeg, commot for here joor with your victim mentality! You talk of ethnic hatred like that same hatred isn't embedded in Igbo people too.

A very close friend of mine, liberal person, just came back from Orlu in Imo state for some work. He never believed how Igbo people in that community treated him because he wasn't an indegene, yet alone Igbo. But you are here trying to paint Igbo people as saints with no hint of ethnic bias and prejudice in their blood. Mtschew!

If you want the truth here it is. ignore it if you want. I'm done squabbling with you.

Why am I not shocked. When pointed out the discrepancy and the lack of liberalism from Yoruba unlike what you all have decieved us and yourselves with automatically the person is Igbo to you people. In the beginning, Yoruba ignorance and low tolerance of anyone you all view as not the main tribes surprised me but not anymore. Social media exposed alot. I'm starting to get use to you all poor mentality. I'm not Igbo. I know you people like only Igbos addressing you and your discrepancy but, unfortunately for you, I have eyes, I can see and I'm human just like you so I'm going to say what's on mind despite very likely your grandiose thought that only those who are main and have higher population can address your shortcomings. As far as I'm concerned Yoruba population means absolutely nothing to me. You all are in the same huddle as my people so yes, I will say my thoughts.

1. Did Agbaje address Sanwu-olu or was he addressing APC which is the party Sanwu-olu running on? So because Sanwu-olu may not have used tribalism as of yet, noone should point out that APC is a ethnic bigot party who uses hate and tribalism as campaign? Agbaje should not point even though every aspect of APC shows it. That's the logical liberalism of yoruba is it according to you?

3. Chisom Dike is a representative in River State but family from Abia state. I have equally heard Ejiogu is from SE, I'm not sure how true that is but according to Etche people I know claims he was born and raised in etche but family is from SE plus Wike have appointed several Igbos in his administration despite Yorubas attempt to color him as a bigot. I'm very positive, in other SS state it's the same way but isn't highlighted because noone cares. Noone cares what ethnicity a politician is in SS as long as you do your job as descripted. Despite APC BMC despite attempt to accuse ss having a bigotry aspect of my son. The only set that follows that mentality is ironically, the three main tribes that decieve themselves that their population means anything. This is the reason why Nigeria is not developing because the self imposed majority are so tribally backwards.

Where did I state or imply Igbos are saints? Do me the favor of highlighting exactly where I stated or implied that? As usual, avoidance of shortcomings because others display your shortcomings.

Greedy politicians stealing what's meant for our development

richie9093:
And what exactly is the truth please? Are Igbos having their shops locked up in Lagos?

Are Igbos being refused land to build houses in Lagos? Are Igbos being refused apartment to be rented in Lagos?

Are Igbos having their goods seized unlawfully in Lagos?

What is this truth you speak of that all of us don't know?

Lagos is a yoruba state located in the Southwest, it is only right for Yoruba people to contest for power in it. Is your truth contrary to this?

Rivers State is almost culturally diverse as Lagos and filled with Igbos. how many Igbos are contesting for public offices there?

Igbos have a sizeable amount of people in Delta state, how many Igbos are elected there?

Then what is it about It Igbo people wanting to run for public offices in Lagos.

Again, I ask you: What is exactly is this truth you speak of?

Was that what Agbaje was addressing? If that's what you read from what he said then you prove his statement accurate. What he stated was that APC supporters, especially those of Yoruba origin, whom uses ethnic fighting, ethnic hatred especially towards Igbos as their political platform and ways to campaign. This is indeed an accurate statement and truth. Informing Agbaje not to mention it or shame him from speaking the truth is itself deceptive.

Yes, the Igbos have reported more than once harassment of their shops and their properties, closing of their shops without compensation by Lagos government especially ever since APC took over on this website. We've all seen the numerous topic created by them on that aspect as well as the mocking from Yorubas about it. People are not blind on this website. I don't know why you people believe people aren't aware of what's occurring in your side especially since both yoruba and the Igbos embarrasses and exposes eachother on daily basis on this website. It's ignorant to believe everyone cannot read.

The comparison to River State and Delta State is iggrecious. I don't know where you get the misconception there aren't Igbos who hold electorial position or contesting for a electorial position in River State or Delta State. There are Igbos whose origins is River State and Delta State so why wouldn't there be Igbos who holds titles or running for a position in either state? I'm from River State and I know there are several elected politicians in River State that are of Igbo origin and there are still Igbos running for position. I don't know why you people have this misconception that everyone follows an ethnic politics just because Yorubas does it. In River State, nobody highlights what ethnicity a politician running for a post is because it's irrelevant. In SW, especially ever since APC arrived, that appears to be the number one factor and tribalism is their campaign so shaming Agbaje from stating that accuracy is indeed wrong.

MadamExcellency:
Most comments on Twitter and here are truly stupid and inflammatory.

These tribalists and bigots never cared to address his comment to condemn the hate speech Akiolu made in 2015.

The Akiolu's statement was made on behalf of APC, yet APC didn't care to condemn Akiolu with the most strongest terms rather will bounce on any Yoruba who sees the hate and bigoted speech for what it is.


Bunch of clannish hypocrites.

I don't believe there is a difference between these candidates in Lagos State accept the colonial influence.

They are trying to find a reason to support Tinubu's candidate and decieve themselves it wasn't because of Tinubu. Afterall, what Agbaje stated is accurate. I've yet to witness any APC supporter who isn't an ethnic bigot. All their BMC uses bigotry on this website on daily basis to promote their wasteful party. When Atiku choose Obi, everyone saw the amount of topic created by them to bash Igbos yet, the same are advising Agbaje from ethic politics. The hypocrisy is nauseating. They should vote Tinubu's candidate as instructed and stop pretending to be liberals. I've yet to witness any liberalism from Yorubas as of late.

richie9093:
That was wrong then and this is wrong now. When Akiolu said that he received a lot of backlash, most especially from Yorubas.

2 wrongs don't make a right.

Hiding the truth is also a wrong. In this case, advising Agbaje not to say what's clearly the truth is also not a right

I just love how APC bigots, I'm sorry I forgot BMC, are the ones condemning Agabje for saying a truth We all can see it. I've yet to see any APC supporting BMC that is Yoruba who does not use tribal attacks, tribal bashing especially towards Igbos on daily basis. Such hypocrites. As if what the man said is not the truth.

He looks about the same age as his wife. Isn't he twice her age?

felixomor:
He keeps addressing "clone"
Rather than "impostor"

Because he probably is and they trying to throw people off. As much as they focused on the accusation, I'm starting to believe Kanu.

This is why I don't like APC. Everything about that useless party is tribal based. They don't care about anything else but being tribal and staying in power. Complete useless and failures

bantudra:
i dont understand you igbos....una always say northerners have a born to rule mentality,but you are the same people still giving them rulership....

what type of reasoning is this,mbok....??

Will you shut up. So you want Igbos to be as tribal myopic as you Yorubas? Ever since that Buhari took over, there's been more killings, death, corruption, poverty, etc but yet, you people still want that fool to continue all because you believe the North will hand you people the next presidency. You don't care about the well being of the country, the people or anything, all you people think of is being greedy and selfish on a dream that very likely won't happen. Yet you want Igbos to join you people in your selfishness. It's because of you Yorubas that the terrorist Buhari won and now It is still you people trying to push him back to control the country even though he has failed in every way. Even his northern people are not following him as much you people and out of greed, you lots are still pushing for him to win. It is sad that the people who claim they don't vote by tribal thinking but rather good governance are the set pushing that failure to continue. May God have mercy on you people's soul. Useless people.
Don't you dare deny to be Yoruba and pretend to be Niger Deltan to me because we all know you're not one of us.

Real love and affection is going to the people and the people welcoming you with love and, happiness and affection. Something Atiku can not command in his life.

I wouldn't have posted this pictures if I was you. I actually contradicts what you're saying. In admist of what the OP posted, which are cheerful crowds, the crowds in your pictures look gloomy as if they are being forced to be there. Heck some had their body turned to the side as if they are leaving. The worst pictures ever to use to compare to the OP's picture.

I'm not shocked. A terrorist will always be a terrorist even if you dress him up in nice clothes. Expect heavy rigging from the so called man of integrity. And when that doesn't work, expect him to send out his foot soliders like he did in 2011. Nigeria entered one chance with this people.

I'm getting tired how much APC and their E-bigots keep thinking Nigerians are idiot. Enough with this uncorrupted and Mr.Integrity nonsense. It's stale. Buhari is as corrupt, if not worse, than other Nigerian politicians. My biggest irritation and now starting to turn to annoyance of Buhari is that he's a Thief as every other politicians yet, trying to uplift himself as a saint. He is a saint yet Nigeria that dropped in corruption index have risen up again since he took over despite the pretense of fighting corruption. He's not a thief yet his unemployed son is riding and wreaking million dollars worth of machinery. He's not a thief yet his wife and unemployed children shops at high end fashion which cost thousands and sometimes millions in dollars. He's not a thief and unable to afford building his house, buying presidental forms but yet he was able to afford putting all his children to Western universities which cost thousands, which are millions in naira, per semester. He's a man of integrity yet there are multiple embezzlement and bribery going on and thriving in the integrity man's party? Who do this people think they are fooling? Buhari is a CORRUPT THIEF!!! Stop selling expired and rotten milk

boomssey:
Btw y is she d only fair person among them?

Obviously she's bleaching.

So the man and his government that's protecting and overlooking looters from his party even when there's evidence is who would return Nigerian's stolen money? You all must think Nigerian are stupid

Vdsc:
The money that pays osibanjo comes from Yoruba land, abi?
The money he used in building useless projects in the south west comes from the south west, abi?

Keep burning your southern bridges. Fashpla has done his, osibanjo has also done his.

Una go know the scores when buhari leaves power.

Leave them. Let them continue doing what they are doing eventually it'll hit them very soon. The Buhari government did was expose Yoruba for who they are. Just leave them

US practices confidentiality and take it extremely serious. Didn't they already make an announcement but yet Tinubu's owned media outlet is telling us a source without name broke confidentiality for Nigeria? How stupid do APC really think we are? Why is everything that comes out of federal government acting like oppositional propaganda? Now I understand why Buhari have insulted Nigeria many times. That party do not have any regards to the masses. They actually think we're stupid.

id911:
As in eh, it's becoming so annoying. Can't they see that Buhari is an obviously damaged products that is not marketable? How can such an extremely incompetent man be leading a country in the 21st century?

I think they know. They are not doing it because they like him but because of that meager 30K a month. Selfish people

ThatIjawBoy:
The thing tire me,look at the nonsense he's typing

It's a shame.

The year this article was made 2017. It's December 2018, other than to start unnecessary tribal attacks why was this topic made?
Which ethnicity is very prominent in starting tribal baiting on this topic yet someone thinks it's wrong to direct them against attacking Ijaw. Useless person

ThatIjawBoy:
how did you know that ijaw hate Igbo's?

Ask him. I don't know why him and his people always try to soil other people images.

Yyeske:
Why are you guys always ready to be calling people names upandan? Someone posted the link to the publication, instead of you to go through it, you are here shouting Yoruba. Even if the OP is Yoruba, is the message or statement coming from a Yoruba group? You are not Ijaw because we all know they hate Igbos.

Who controls Nigeria's media?
Oh I'm not Ijaw because I don't ascribe to whatever delusion Yorubas have about Ijaws. Sorry for your ignorance. Ijaws do not have hate nor carry hate. I don't know why you people keep thinking everyone is like you people.
And yes OP is a Yoruba troll who goes by several accounts and whom been opening several topics this week starting multiple altercations. You people should find something better to do instead of tribal baiting.

So an unknown source and APC handle are who we should believe what happened about Atiku's US trip. I don't know if APC and their BMC believe everyone in Nigeria is an illiterate like most people in their party.

id911:
BMC, you guys don't have anything to campaign with except Atiku this, Atiku that...

I have never seen a ruling party behaving like an opposition like in your case. It's pathetic

They are useless. I think the BMC does more damage to Buhari's reputation than anything else. I've never seen a group so useless in life. Everything about them is either propaganda and if challenged then it's calling everyone an ipob and when exposed the idiots they are, they accusing everyone as Igbo and hateful yet they are the most divisive, hate filled bigots. If anything BMC is supposed to uplift APC and Buhari image, they are doing a terrible job at it. So far, thanks to them, my opinion of APC is a party filled with hateful bigots

Before any Igbo attacks Ijaw for this OP uselessness. Please know Ijaws have no hand in the bigotry, and hate. The OP is a Yoruba troll that tribal bait. Do not fall for his useless behavior that seems to be prominent with him and his people. I'm Ijaw and I'm asking you people to please, if you guys do fall for his tribal bait, please make sure to exclude Ijaws from it. He's yoruba doing tribal baiting, attack the right people and exclude us from it. Thank you.

omowolewa:
21,000,000 Nigerian Naira for a bottled pure water?!

Is it not 2 Hydrogen and 1 Oxygen again?

Imagine. Whoever waste that much for water is wasting his brain as well

He needs to stop the charade. We all know why he's desperate to have his son in law take over him. He looted that state completely dry and now he's looking for ways to save himself. Blaming the innocent bank manager will not keep all that's hidden from getting exposed

What is wrong with Yoruba people really? Why is that everyday all you people do is either dick measuring or tribal baiting. You people need to find a job because it's obvious you all are jobless with the nonsense I keep seeing on this website.

For those that don't know the OP is a Yoruba troll. He has several accounts pretending to be Edo, Ijaw, Igbo and many more to instigate multiple argument. When noone pays mind to him, he uses his multiple accounts to start it off. Igbobyblood is equally him. Please don't pay mind to this uselessness. Let the SW dick measure by themselves.

Somore needs to shut up. He played a role with Buhari becoming president. All the bribes he took to report rubbish and uplift APC prior to 2015 yet, he has mouth to talk.

Born2Breed:
They are cowards. They have always been and will always be.

The fools that fell for it are who should equally be blamed. I don't understand why they enjoy tribal baiting so much.

IloveToMess:
My friend you are going overboard and that is really getting on my nerves. I said that Asari in his comment said ijaw is the real Biafra thats all, and if you have problem with that you need to ask yourself why. Dont quote me again please.

Who's talking about Biafra? Did I mention that I was talking about Biafra? Tribal baiting fools. I was talking about this exact topic and your rubbish of baiting the Edos. Now you're here trying to use Biafra to tribal bait Igbos. You're a fool.
