Biodun556: The mother was an indigine of Lagos from Lagos Island. Yorubas are very flexible and accommodating. Many Yorubas have become baale and traditional rulers from mothers side.
Lateef Jakande, the first civilian governor of Lagos was from Kwara State
In my part of Lagos women are not second class citizen. When my grampa died everyone including my dad elder sister had to be present.
She and my dad see through everything. Thats why I feel reluctant to get into family issues ones my elder sister is present already.
cocolacec: Yorubaland is a region ,any Yoruba is free to claim any part of Yorubaland so far he is a son of the Yoruba soil.
The states were created by the British and the Military junta.Yorubas are not defined by artificial geographic creations.
The only reason I will not engage my fellow omoluabi is because of the stupid Igbo boy that start the thread.
Emo eko are not treated like the way we treat our brother here. There are limit to what we can contest for or do. I read that in the news long ago. But it later happened to me in Ogun state.
Tinubu is not our choices person. He has step on toes alot
SpecialAdviser: I keep saying this. We may start witnessing another Benue scenario around Yoruba land. What is happening is usually the normal trend.
Yoruba leaders need to take a concrete stand in all these. This is not the time to be divided. And surely not the time for nonsense politics.
All well meaning Nigerians should also lend their voice on these killings. No day passes without a Yoruba blood being shed. How can farmers be courageous to go to their farms under this circumstance?
White collar job workers living in Lagos and coming online to type may not understand what these villagers are passing through. There is nothing more terrifying than being afraid to go to the bush. This kind of things can scare the hell out of anybody going to the bush. Unfortunately majority of these villagers are largely farmers. How will they feed? How will they pay their kids school fees.
Its a shame when I see Yorubas who believe these happening should be treated with kiddies gloves. Cos of 2023? Are they mad? What did Obasanjo presidency bring you? One reason am mad at politicians. They are the worst set of fo.ols.
I have notice you're also yoruba from the recent trouble we face. I understand the pain, even Sunday igboho has been silenced .
Oni said his style is different and People are dying. Unless one helineus or northern extraction trying to sow confusion here.
We've sold our tomorrow for politics the type of awolowo/jakande are gone.
Karma is already catching up with the killer Fulani herdsmen.
There is now much awareness about their activities and atrocities all over Nigeria..
If they can't arrange their own private ranching for their cows to graze, then there is no place for them anymore in Southern Nigeria.. Correct business men know what it's good for their business..
Ranching or be kicked
I thought yoy said false news. No coacoa farm was burnt?
Had it been you're a Yoruba you're disgrace us. But you aren't and nemesis will catch up on you
Focusmind: The day I saw the design of the well planned Lagos inner state metro line by his administration, that was about to start, before Buhari cancelled the project that I knew that the man was just a very good man. Just imagine if that metro line had seen the light of the day.
Lagos wouldn't have been like this. The coordinates of the rail covered the whole nuke and crannies of Lagos, including places that were yet to develop then. See his foresight?
At that time, he had envisaged Ajah and constructed the road from Ozumba Mbadiwe to Ajah . Even the metro was supposed to terminate at Epe, based on that plan then. Buhari messed up big time by cancelling that project.
I wonder how come we voted the same buhari to power .
And now we're screaming the name of another criminal for 2023. What's happening to us.
amakadlite: oya go burn and loot innocent traders at alaba. the last time the oba tried, he was chased into the lagoon by ordinary touts while his staff was auctioned on jijiji. Nansense
see this one, awon omo isale eko chase their oba , but Igbo are boasting .
If igbo tried that thats the end of Igbo in Lagos na!
Because their girlfriend are jobless somewhere putting pressure on them on basic need they should cater for themselves.
They know their jobless girlfriend who they love will give birth and more money will be needed to take care of them.
They have mothers to care for, everyman wants to see his mother smiling.
They have siblings somewhere , maybe in school or somewhere.
The government is useless and many graduate die poor , so education is not an option to them. Everyone can't be a business man because the government will frustrate every reasonable business , thats why business men act smart by asking China to reduce quality which is also fraud.
Now if youve not made any effort to put food on the table of your family I will advice you to stop the rubbish you post online.
From the endsars protest I noticed you might be one bright young girl trying to make waves in life but issue is , you're so dumb and don't think logically .
Don't let stupid emotions overtake your sense of humour . Grow up kid.
If read this my mention I want you to reply me with = thanks sweetheart, I'll look into myself
Cherez: 1 simple question with multiples 1. Who started the #Endsars protest? 2. Have you listened to Adeyinka Grandson too? 3. The heads of police in Lagos are not Igbos and people who attacked police stations atleast that of Bariga I saw on TV were Yoruba guys, what did you do to them? 4. How you idiots single out Igbos as if they were the ones who did loot people Tell us also whether Falz is Igbo
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=qpjS8bGWBTE 5. There was a picture of one of the thugs in BRT bus attacking Rinu and co at Alausa; till date have you prosecuted this guy or questioned your govt for bringing thugs in govt buses? But your evil heart will call out an Igboman not involved in all thesu lots is the hatred and I don't understand how it is that Igbos were behind the #Endsars protest in Lagos The list of EndSars leaders by the govt still has over 85% of it Yorubas. Mehn, I'm beginning to agree on something's ooo
You guys are so badly moved by emotions . you softly condemn nnamdi KANU and swift to throw tantrum at other ethnicity.
Its hypocritical to say nnamdi KANU is not an Igbo leader. We see the way your people bow to his feet even knowing that he's not from a royal blood.
Your people defend him a lot. Stop typing thrash! I live close to Alaba , worked in Alaba i know igbo so well.
Adeyinka grandson never asked Yoruba's in Igbo land to burn Igbo properties. Your comparison is foolish!
For you to attack Yoruba's for holding Igbo's responsible base on nnamdi kanu statement has given me more reasons to believe you guys are just emotional shit!
If your stupid hero don't mind his words your innocent igbos might be the ones to pay dearly for his uncultured utterance
adadike: Ndi Igbo, we are egalitarian which means man is equal to man. Stop following a fellow man' order without questions! Stay away from lekki protests. If possible stay at home or in your shops, with folded arms and watchful eyes! Stay totally away from Yoruba people's protest. Ask yourself how many times yorubas living in the east have joined ndi Igbo to protest over here in the east? A word is enough for the wise.
Nnamdi KANU will forever be an idiot to me. I defending igbos not until I watched the idiot video.
You will not see that one to condemn because he's your hero
MLTR: @ myndd44 as much as i have no intentions of derailing these threads but i think its time i really call you out love it here Myndd44 you are the major reason most monikers have dozens of alternate, what do you expect when you ban people for a year or till 2030 that they patiently wait or what exactly. These would be my 1st & last time calling you out, you aint worth the attention, nor of your actions will come as a surprise, but note you can never silence me.
Mynd44 or myndd44 whatever they call him. He's so arrogant and feels untop of the world.
He bans people a lot for too long. Its personal interest is pushing him and seun should check into this .
omokab: Mr scientist. What has science need to do with security? Stealing someone money alone can lead to death. A case of a man that was receiving debit alert. He ran to bank and discovered that all what he labour for has gone . he collapsed and died instantly. What about girls they are using for rituals ? What about stealing of under wear of ladies including innocent one? I pray all what you labour for will be stolen by yahoo yahoo. Then you will see the good side of it.
Your dumb! All I said up dear was justice to all crimes. But you can't think properly, no crime should be favored. Why do you turn bandit and political crime to norms that you live with it as normal person.
If you have any favorite or prefered politician who is corrupt you will loose your wealth to politic one day.
Then you'll learn how to tackle issues from the root not branch
southniyikaye: OGA, NOTHING JUSTIFIES CRIME.. BANDITRY, HERDSMEN, RUSTLING, YAHOO, NOTHING JUSTIFIES CRIME SO KEEP YOUR CRIMINAL LIFE OUTTA MY MENTION..
Not when hypocrite talk about it. I can see politicians are not in your list. You're a slave to criminals as far as Nigeria is concerned .
If you live in Lagos then you're a slowpoke that don't see the Lagos fraudulent government . Peace!
The5DME: Thank you, although I'm surprised by your anwser but thank you anyway.
Look man, I know how to sketch from little , I fix electronics , I run errand alot. Now presently im older and im a physicist yet I know how to design electronics and code robotic system. Write web application fight taekwondo and I know some funny history about the world.
Despite all I still had similar problem with you, I was using left and it added to why people see me coming from opposite angle.
I'm grown and exposed. I can manage myself well with no issues. Self Management is key. Understand yourself better in good ways.
omokab: can you tell me how they are better than bandit? They are both criminals. Bandit kill they also kill.bandit steal they also still. They rape bandit rape. Bandit collect huge money for Ransome,they also collect huge money from innocent person or business person by trick. Stop praising them except if are one of them
You're an hypocrite , I'm a scientist I don't go with mere assumption. Show me evidence of yahoo boys raping, killing people.
And I'll show you that you're an hypocrite.
Internet fraud has nothing to do with banditry. Do you know it take years of study to be a black heart hacker? How does it relate with rape and killing attributed to bandit?
Internet fraud are in the same similar category with politicians but you praise politicians instead.
Kidnappers are also similar to banditry. Stop the foolish comparison
Billyonaire666: It is very funny how people will expect crime not to spiral when there is no social security benefit? You have hungry lion and you leave a goat walking around and unsecured.
The banks should secure their assets and the fraud will be defeated.
With millions graduating without jobs, you can only arrest so many. I think it is silly to go out there to arrest people because they are into fraud when there is no plaintiff filing any report.
I think this Government is just frustrating certain sections of the country and calling people fraudsters. Call them 'suspects' when there is no plaintiff.
This country will just burn some day, cos you cant kill everyone
When I see fool talk rubbish on nairaland I just shake my head bro.
One major reason I dislike southwest politicians most especially my logos politicians . Just like one fella who graduated from unilag always putting me through physics since he's a physics graduate.
Recently many years has past I see my guy man upload anonymous pics as profile. This country is frustrating people and you expect them to fold their hands and watch.
If care is not taking the next outcry of the citizen would destroy this ourpresent system
southniyikaye: CRUISE COUNTRY.. SO YAHOO BOYS NOW HAVE THE GUT TO PROTEST? SHOULD THEY BRING BACK SARS?
Alaye keep shut. Where are you when bandit and terrorist got amnesty and sent abroad in the north.
But come down here to arrest yahoo boys. South scam white due to bad government while north kidnap and kill fellow citizen due to bad government and still get amnesty later
