Bluntguy:
If he "interferes" in Enugu politics tomorrow, Enugu people might vote for him instead of asking him to leave their land or asking his family members not to come out of their homes on election day.

Tell the Enugu people to first install Ebonyi man as governor first before thinking of a Yoruba man. You guys think everyone is a fool?

SpecialAdviser:
Better it's done in 6 regions. There is no way Tinubu can secure up to a thousand vote if it was the turn of Yorubas and he is contesting against a seasoned technocrats. He is a druggie they all know. He is old and suffer dementia. Those who ralied behind him are just tribalists who don't care about the country for so long as their tribesman is in charge. Tinubu would not have even won primaries.

The same goes for Buhari lack of criticism from the north. As for Peter Obi, Igbo people will always rally behind him anytime anyday.
Especially the ordinary Igbos in the streets.

Igbo people will always rally behind someone they themselves called a failure after his 8 years tenure as governor without any visible legacy? And the current state of Anambra State he governed is a testimony? And that is not tribalism? But Yoruba people should not rally behind Tinubu who transformed his state within same 8 years and have produced a lot of great leaders in the country? His state is still the best state in the country today where even all Anambra indigines are running to. Supporting a tested and trusted achiever is tribalism? What Igbos will cause in this country

GreyLaw:
Never has an election in Nigeria brought such anger. Even Buhari who was a serial court customer after each presidential election never vrought widespread anger and disdain as Tinubu who supposedly won the presidential election.

INEC chairman made a huge mistake. Since Tinubu won by roughly 2m votes, Yakubu Mahmood should have listened to the grievances, sorted then amicably and still declared Tinubu as winner. But ordering all the complainants to go to court was quite arrogant. And to cap it off, he sneaked in at about 4am to declare the the winner.

Professor Jega carried himself with more dignity than Mahmood. He, Mahmood, is a big reason people distrust the process.

As for the DSS (actually SSS) , let me not speak my mind. Hopefully this organisation is purified in the days to come.

This one is like that bcs an IPOB apologist lost

Jostoman:
Strong woman, you and Jandor lost to peter obi and not to Apc.

Gbadebo ought to have Step down for Jandor immediately after the presidential election.

Someone who scored over 300 thousand votes should step down for someone who could only gather 80k votes? The ganja wey u smoke go too strong oooo.

id4sho:
Hope he delivers better to the people and stop funding godfathers with taxpayers and state resources

Who tell u he is funding godfathers. Unfounded propaganda with no proof.

Asgard13:
Ogun no sabi me .. na Yoruba people wey he sabi he fit kill

.. but you people are celebrating Fulani taking over of other people state


Yoruba and tuface idibia

Wetin consign Yoruba with fulani? How many Yoruba carry other tribes politics for head?

Asgard13:
Nassarawa election is purely rigged.. the Fulani still wan hold this state to ransoms

It’s obvious Pdp won in nassarawa.. but the Christian governor was robbed

Anyways someday the majority will get it right

How people wey no reach up to 40,000 humans go the rule majority of over a million indigenous people

Same thing yoruba deployed all tribal and intimidation police thugs curses and abuses to fight in Lagos state

But will gladly support what they give in other rates

Foolishness is within

Feb 25 we wait

So Yorubas should fold their hands and allow the Chinedus to take over their state? Ogun kee u dia

ggood:
Mc Oluthief have to be arrested.

Mc Touts were ringing bell yesterday morning in my area, that if ur not voting for apc don't come out. They were in their numbers chasing non Yoruba away in my area. Since I was born I have never seen such intimidation before.

If chasing igbo away is what made Chinedu lost Lagos. That actually confirms the accusation that the Igbos want to decide the future of their host in their own land. It clearly shows that the Yorubas don't want Chinedu Vivior but he is Igbos candidate, bcs if not his Yoruba people should have voted for him to win the election.

system21:
I hate APC but you see Rivers state if Labour can not win let APC win

You Igbos don't practice politics of ideology. It is always all about hatred,never about competence. Politics of if I can't have it, it should be destroyed. Tinubu was ur victim, he won, now Sanwoolu and Wike. May God deliver ur soul.

SenatePresdo:
I thought it's only igbos that have Osu, never knew the Yorubas also have their own as Omo Ale.

Nawa ooh.

Osunian people are the real Yorubas, while a true Lagosian, Oyonian, Ekititian, or Ondonese that has a mother from another Tribe is omo ale?

Yorubas are the most Tribalistic set of humans in the history of mankind.

Thank God they are cowards, if not they would be invading other people's lands and killing them like the fulanis.

Kwarans that was sold by Afonja to Osama dan fordio even have the guts to call unconquered yoruba people Omo Ale?

Hate no dey tire skullMiners

He wasn't called omo ale bcs he has a mixed identity. He is omo ale bcs he is a Yoruba man (either mixed or pure) fronting for the Igbos. He is a willing instrument in the hand of igbo expansionists to undermine his own people. We all know the plan. The port is their target. Why are the Igbos or LP not campaigning for governorship candidates in Ogun, oyo, Ondo, ekiti, and osun? Lagos is their interest and any Yoruba who will enable them will be tagged a bastard. Chinedu RV is a bastard Yoruba.

loosecanon50:
In Nigeria, our electoral body is so daft and incompetent even at stealing. How to even rig election properly, they can’t do it. Only to leave glaring evidence that they will still deny.

Peter Obi is not your common politician, he will widen all the puntured holes in your useless party and your INEC. It’s just a matter of time.

The election was not rigged. Some electoral malpractices recorded in some place is not unexpected and definately not enough to discredit the whole election. This election is the best so far judging from the surprising results which showed that power has gone off political structures and back to the poeple. Even if u give the whole Lagos, Rivers and Imo votes to Obi, it won't still make him have the majority votes and 25% national spread. That is the fucking truth. APC won bcs PDP share votes between 3 people. It was expected and predicted even before the election. You people should stop heating the polity unnecessarily and learn lesson for next election.

Rapuru14:
Yoruba Woman is the sole senator representing FCT. That's what it is and the indigenous population ain't complaining.

Here we have Yorubas, fighting their own just because the mother is Igbo. Lagos was the FCT for a reason. Anybody irrespective of Tribe should be able to aspire to be the number 1 citizen of the state.

Anyways Tinubu and his dirty noisy minions are in the minority. Sensible Yorubas are more in number.

GRV for a progressive Lagos state.

The difference is this. Yorubas are quietly living their lives in Abuja, no Yoruba calling Abuja no man's land, if not that woman wouldn't have made it. There are so many Igbos in Lagos in house of Assembly, house of Rep, local government chairmen and counsellors. That tells u Lagos is even more accommodating and tolerant that Abuja. Igbos are over reaching their boundaries. They want to produce a governor. Habba. Yorubas don't try this in their host domain, including South East. Yorubas are not fools, they are just been liberal. Let a Yoruba man first be a counsellor in the east, then we can discuss.

Felabrity:
Peter Obi won his state
Atiku won his state
Kwankwaso won his state

Tinubu can't relate

He lost in Lagos, state he governed
lost in Osun, his home state
and even FCT

That is to show that Nobody wants Ojuyobo as president , not even his own people

He rigged his way in

That is a testimony that Yoruba people are more liberal, enlightened, objective, and open-minded, and not religious or tribal bigots like other regions whose sons were in the elections. For him not to even expect a single vote against him in his region in a national election shows he expects his people to use tribal consideration above any other criteria, but in the same spirit expect other region to reject their own son. This is double standard and I'm not surprised, that's what Igbo people are known for.

OKOSISIBF:
Some people talk without reason, why is Lagos flourishing? Is because of the port,they should open the port in the east and watch how business will flourish there

There are so many cities and countries without a single port and are flourishing. Lagos not flourishing bcs of port but visionary leaders who have ruled it. Kano has no port and is flourishing. No south eastern state can even compare Bornu, a wartorn state. Leadership is the difference.

sweetjohn:
Gbadebo is a true Lagosian and not an immigrants like Sanwolu. He is the most qualified to be governor of Lagos state. For long Lagosians have been sidelined to one corner and scavengers from Ogun and Other part of SW have been syphoning the resources and wealth of Lagos. The money Tinubu has stollen from Lagos no true Lagosians have made such in his or her 100yrs on earth.

The good news is that true Lagosians have the opportunity to reclaim their state back from all this immigrants rascals from SW by supporting one of their own Gbadebo of LP or continued slaving away to this rascals from neighbouring SW state. Reclaiming back your state does not make you guys less Yoruba neither those it make you guys Igbo apologies as this rascals immigrants from SW had made you believe over the years. For it is the right thing to do by reclaiming back your state and governing your state. Lagosains, it is time to begin to put on your thinking cap. For example, there are also large percentage of Igbos in Ogun state. They live happily with their Yoruba brothers. Now a quick thought, why are they not fighting them in Ogun? If truly Igbos want to take SW, why are they not bothered about them in Ogun and other SW states as they do in Lagos. Yea, your guess is correct. It's simply because they want to continue to govern your state and continue to steal from the rich resources of Lagos. They knew very well that the Igbo man always vote competent leader who understood ecomony very well and who will create an enabling environment for businesses to strive. That's the only reason they fight against the Igbos in Lagos. They see the Igbos as a threat to achieve their demonic aim which is to syphon Lagos wealth to themselves.

To the true Lagosians, you now have the power and opportunity to correct this years of stealing, intimidations and ethnic blindfolding in your land by voting your own son Gbadebo of LP as governor or continue to be govern by criminals from Ogun, Osun, and Oyo while turning your own royal father's, the Oba of Lagos to mere puppet and political and ethnic bullying, your eligible sons to govern to outcasts and your children children to touts. Don't be deceived be wise, Igbos are not your problem, Igbos have been respectful and helping to develop your state and also helping you true Lagosians reclaim back your state. The ball to reclaim back your state is now on your court.

It is Igbo that is so much concern about real lagosians claiming their land from other immigrant Yorubas. This love so pure. Wonderment

OlawaleBammie:
As funny and pervert this may sound tho....



BUT ITS THE BITTER TRUTH. ENOUGH OF MASSAGING UR WOMAN UNNECESSARY EGO(that one no mean say make u rape Ur woman ooh)

Some women thinks when dey deny u sex u will idolise them..lol, no be person like me wey fit sleep with my woman for two month and not asking her what she's selling under there

Me that everyday by day na how a wan become an industrialist like dangote, jagaban, dantata, otedola, elumelu, prince author and co na hin a dey tink, sex becomes tertiary not even secondary.

Well, my woman now don join prayer warriors so that we can be doing it at least twice a week

Na money I need abeg

Someone is doing the job for u, I swear. This issue is more complicated than u think.

The results of the election showed it was the best Nigeria has ever done, free and fair to all. If there was any rigging, it was definitely in Igbo lands where Obi had landslide victories, similar to previous Nigeria elections. Let us be sincere with our selves. Take up the results and study it more. The most popular candidate won. Simple

Hendrixky:
We are getting there

It is not over until it is over

This is a big shame to yorubas and tinubu

Tinubu is just a little boy in politics he depends on rigging and snatching of ballot box

And yorubas are not educated they way they claimed

Imagine ekiti repeating voting for Apc that put the whole nation into suffering

You asked for people not to be ethnically biased in voting, they came out and voted for Igbo candidate against their own son on their soil, u now come out to say shame on them. That is what I keep telling Yoruba people who are forming woke. By your post u mean they failed to vote for their son just like Igbos stick to their son,Obi. And truely their is no where Tinubu can get such votes in the SE against Obi. Now I ask again, who is now tribalistic?

VERDA:
I stoped reading at the * it is your dominating attitude *....this is the problem with you lots, as a result of your hate for igbo's, you assume everyone not in agreement with your point of view, or in support of your candidate is igbo...
As to your assuming i am igbo, thats your problem


You dont have to lie as a result of your hate, that is the tribal bigotry everyone keeps talking about, you are everything you accuse your opponents of being.


I have lived in Abuja for years and have never seen or heard that the gbagyi people have a fight with the Igbo's. Stop the hate oga.

Just to digress...el rufai was the FCT minister at some point, is he gbagyi??, Bala mohamed was also FCT minister, is he also gbagyi??...is the current FCT minister also gbagyi They are all from same region and religion, but hypocritical lots like you will turn a blind eye to that....

A fulani northerner just rules for 8 years, another fulani northerner is from a particular party is attempting to continue, that is not dormination to you hypocrites....

2 of the 3 major ethnic groups that make up this country have ruled, one has decided to come back, claiming it is his turn, went as far as breaking an unwritten rule holding this country together to field a vice of same faith in a country almost devided equally between both religions because of his hunger for power....that is not dormination to hypocrites like you.

But God forbid, igbo's who voted for yoruba in Obasanjo, fulani and hausa in Shagari yaradua and Atiku, who voted for jonathan from the south south to attempt to aspire for the highest office....hypocrites like you start bringing up stupid dormination stories, you guys are truly shameless, until Nigeria truly practice equity and justice...we are wasting our time.

No story. Saturday elections will come. All the hates u have sown will be reaped in form of supports. Yoruba alone can't decide your fate, the whole Nigeria will. If u have been good to the rest of the country, Saturday poll will tell, NOT any further argument. Whatever Yoruba and Igbos have sown, they will reap on Saturday. Shikena

phorget:
How?
Is APC the only party contesting?
Buhari is simply saying no more vote buying and I don't think anyone should be worried about that.

Use sense. APC is not the only party contesting but the issue of cash scarcity is only affecting the chances of their candidates, boasting that of PDP, LP and others. The issue has more to do with the sufferings people are going tru to access their own money than the vote buying thing they are shouting. That is why it is only their governors who have been fighting. The PDP and LP people are happy with the development and are supporting Buhari bcs the dullard doesn't know that he is killing the chances of his own party by that planned policy.

Okoros are trying to paint him coward. He didnt reverse himself on his stand on old notes. He was only telling the people he didnt cause the cash scarcity that it was evil plan by cbn, that the issue will soon be resolved, that they should be patient. Obviously the people were angry with him over the cash scarcity. And that is the plan of PDP and LP, why they are supporting the policy. They know the pains people are going tru is to the disadvantage of APC at the poll.

VERDA:
That there are more igbo's in other places than those indigens are in the southeast tells you just one thing, that the igbo's are very business oriented compared to other tribes, 70% of the igbo's you see in other places are there for business....we need to stop this tribalistic narrative.

Why are the Gbagyi people who own abj not also making so much noise about people leaving their lands, or are there no igbo's there too??

Any small thing its leave lagos, as if they are being fed by anybody, are they not doing legitimate businesses there??, All these tribal games from both yoruba and igbo's will not help anybody....

Have you heard that yoruba's in the southeast were asked to leave or their businesses being threatened? Any small thing...you guys are immigrants in lagos and most of the people saying this are not even from lagos. Nobody is an immigrant anywhere in Nigeria, make person rest abeg.

I like those issues u raised and they actually settle this argument well. Gbagyi or Abuja people have also had several face off with the Igbos, firstly in Igbos demand to be considered for the post of FCT Minister, bcs they claim they are the ones holding together Abuja economy and secondly in the widely reported several fights in Abuja Igbo dominated markets. It is your dominating attitude over your host that is creating all these problems for you. Other tribes don't try to dominate u in your space.
Then, you don't hear about Yorubas being threatened to leave SE bcs they are good tenants. They don't go beyond their boundaries, they will never demand for what can upset the little hospitality they are enjoying from their host. They don't abuse their hosts and desecrate the place tagging Igbo land, no man's land. Hausaa have also at several times issued evacuation notice to Igbos in their land, owing to all these "we develop the place, so it is our own" mentality. If Yorubas in Igboland try half of what u guys are trying here in SW, all the Yorubas there would have been banished into river Niger over the night. After the civil war bcs most of u are children and need to be taught history. The Igbos took solace in the Yoruba lands. They were absorbed by our kings and leaders all for one Nigeria. They came in droves to Lagos and other cities in SW. They were given open arms, allowed without boundaries to live among our people, do their businesses, buy and own properties, marry our children, even given chance to hold elective positions and political appointments without check. By the time they have reached a particular strength, they began to flex muscle with their host, trying to dictate her politics and future. Habba, what u can never try in the SE.

pinkasso:
I called you out for blackmailing other tribes/ethnicity contributing to the growth of Lagos even since pre - independence with this argument of saying the easterners for example are disrespecting thier host or dragging Lagos with the westerners, how is this possible? Easterners no they pay tax or have they ever been a governor of Lagos? and If you consider how strategic Lagos is to the whole southern Nigeria you are bound to have this mix opinion about 'Lagos' because it has always built itself with a non-ethnocentric principle that's is why they say it's a no mand land like in major cities e g London the PM has Indian heritage, that's why Lagos is the center of excellence, the word no man's land is the strength of Lagos economically it's not a weakness,(anybody can come and make it).
Now can you say that the easterners are disrespectful to their host in Ogun,Ekiti,Osun and Oyo? can you?
You are just trying to be clever by half by saying oil companies in the southern part of Nigeria are employing lots of westerners because they are more educated than the southerners then when the e.g first Finance minister post independence was from the south.
I hope in the next 50 years the westerners will not come and tell us that they were the one that would either be president or vice since 1999 because they were the most qualified?

All these stories no need. Saturday poll will tell u who owns Anambra and Lagos. The indigines of these two states will come out and speak. Shikena

chigoizie7:
It seems comprehension is your problem. I wont say much. Let’s wait and see.

No u comprehension dey worry. You all think the policy is to stop Tinubu, then after Saturday election, CBN will release enough cash to circulation. And me dey tell u for my post say Una dey deceive Una self. Cash scarcity will continue and Una go surfer. That's when u obidients will start your own protest in a policy u have all supported, thinking it is to make Obi win.

[quote author=Sammy07 post=121126165][/quote]Liar. Where u do election last year? In byafra abi? This is national election bro. All na electronic transfer unless consumables and transportation.

SpatialKing:
Don't just make claims you can't back with evidence

Yorubas naturally aren't adventurous
Most of you just feel Nigeria starts and end in Ibadan
Even the Hausa Fulani are well traveled then Yorubas

Hausas travelled more?..... that is why they full Igbo land more than any other tribe
Besides what do u mean I have claims I cant back up. I am sure u are an Igbo born in Lagos and never have even stepped your foot on Igbo soil. I am well travelled. I have lived in the SE and u can visit the region and confirm all that I said. Even Abia Igbos are discriminated against for employment in Imo. Look at these two states formed from a single state o. Let alone Ebonyi people, Ha, those ones are efulefus to Igbos. The truth is that you guys are the greatest tribalists and you know, if u could discriminate against your own brothers, how can strangers grow among you?

Abagworo:
The population of Igbo people is simply much higher than others if actual ethnicity based census is conducted that's all. It is the same way you'd see more Indians and Chinese in other countries compared with citizens of other countries in India and China.

But why are other people not choosing Igbo lands for prosperity?

MrColdsweat:
You must be sick in the head.

Igbos will continue to live in Lagos as long as Nigeria exist. If you don't like this, you can drink chilled sniper like Awolowo.

Whenever u are faced with superior argument with facts and figures, u usually can not withstand it but resort to insult. I never abused u in my post but your first statement was to insult me. Nobody said Igbos should not live in Lagos, in fact Lagos need them. You have only labelled a whole tribe wrongly, and I tried to expose ur level of intelligence. From my analysis, I still ask you, which tribe is now tribalistic? The ones that allow u come in droves to their land, marry their own children, have education, get employment, grow your businesses, buy, build and own properties, hold both elective positions and political appointments? Or the tribe that enact laws to limit your growth in their place?
I have only heard about Igbos trying to claim ownership and take over Lagos State or become minister of FCT Abuja but never heard of any Yoruba man or Hausa man trying to be anything in Igbo land. And when your hosts are now trying to put u in ur boundary, u will curse them to heavens.
Stop creating unnessesary enmity between u and your good hosts. They will never do same in your own land, shikena. Nobody is after u, stop running more than your shadow.

pinkasso:
This your cheap blackmail no go work on me, if I hear say you no they struggle with wetin, the westerners have strategically positioned theirselves in all the major oil, petrochemical companies here for South abi the indigenes no get graduates?...you guys will not complain because you guys dominate the system here in the south., As soon as table start to turn then you will start to agitate, the West have ruled for right years been vice for eight years wants to rule for another eight years.
How dear you point fingers?

You lack ability for basic judgement. You are just mixing things together. Those oil companies are private entities by multinationals. They will only employ capable hands, they choose who they want to employ, west don't choose for them. Most westerners were lucky to be early employees bcs they were more educated and qualified during those times. Your kinsmen were not interested in education then, only interested in royalties and entitlements. Now that they have all woken up and sending their children to school, do u know that the influence of the westerners have reduced drastically with the demand of the oil community to oil companies to first consider indigines. Do u still compare that to an Igbo who claims Lagos is no man's land, talk down on the people but yet grow his life there? Is any Yoruba man dragging PH or Enugu Or Akwa Ibom or Anambra with any indigines over there or try to dictate their politics. What audacity.

pinkasso:
Lagos was federal capital territory and strive for not being ethnocentric, just like other major cities, even before independence, Dumbo's they find this hard to understand, the westerners wey they enter night bus they come portharcourt when they earn 800k to 1mil a month especially from Oyo, Ondo and Osun make we start to disrespect them too?

You are a dumbo. Those westerner u mentioned don't have problem with their host bcs they don't pass their boundary. They never abuse their host after taking so much from PH. They never claim to own the place or call it all kinds of derogatory names. They never struggle with their host and don't try to dictate her politics. Because they live in Rome, they behave like the Romans. That is what the man is trying to say. The Igbos are the problems. Why are yorubas not having problems with other tribes, or is it only Igbos that are in Lagos? Dumbo, ask yourself?

Nice2023:
Hmm!

These people are setting up themselves.

I have never seen a tribe that is so tribalistic like these people. They way and manner they trade their tribalism publicly is shaming and unbelievable.

What a people.

They are not tribalists. People who are tribalists don't allow other people in their own space. There are more Igbo people in SW than Yoruba people in the SE. There are more also Igbo people in the north than Hausa people in the SE. These are not concidences, it tells you which tribe is more tribalistic. There are many Igbo people in the state civil services, government parastatals, teaching commissions, Higher institutions in the SW states but u can hardly or never even find one Yoruba or hausa in Igbo land in such opportunity. And u are the ones calling these people tribalistic? Who is now tribalistic?
