Primary Schools, I get and support. Secondary Schools, I understand and support. Tertiary institutions, ke? So someone studying Engineering in LASU has to concern himself with Yoruba as a GS course, even though they might have no background of speaking or writing it.
Lagos State House of Reps don't have anything better to do with their time? Smacks of seeking cheap relevance.

Ndubisi Kanu and Ebitu Ukiwe once governed Lagos na

A 2Bedroom Bungalow are located in Mowe side by the Lagos Sagamu Interchange . All u need to own one of them is deposit the sum of N250k.

Carcass structure cost N3.5million, While the completely finished one cost N5million.

You have the chance to pay up within three years, but u cannot do less than N50k after the first deposit. At 70% payment u get keys to your house. Call me for more details as inspection is slated for Fridays and Saturdays... 08080292060

DerideGull:
This is institutionalization of tribalism. The law is unconstitutional to ask non-Yari.ba to secure a pass in Yoruba language in order to secure admission into LASU, If the law stipulates the teaching of Yari.ba in primary and secondary schools as optional curriculum in Lagos State schools, it could be accommodated. I guess Lagos tends to give people false sense of belonging. Yari.ba people tend to start anything tribal in Nigeria only to deny about it in future. This is one of the idiotic shenanigans that fuel the calls for disintegration of the shithole called Nigeria. I really would not care what Yari.ba people do in their country of Oodua Republic and expect they would not care what Ndigbo do in Republic of Igbo Land. The people who call for the Yari.ba culture to reign supreme in Nigeria and tend to foam in their mouths when disintegration of Nigeria is mentioned are the bedrocks of anything bad about Nigeria.

DerideGull:
Enacting an idiotic law to prevent people from gaining admission into state schools is not promotion of any culture. It is a shameless discriminatory and prejudicial action. In civilized countries such as USA, such stupid law will not last for a month.

EODforce:
. Laudate,is this ur new handle ?

oodualover:
They say they want to leave Nigeria, and that the country is a zoo, but they are crying about something that should not be their business. Now they remember this bill will divide Nigeria more. Is that not what they always wanted? Since they have always wanted the country to split, why then should they be against it since it will expedite the process of spliting it? Me I tire for this people oo.
Cry cry babies!
Pathetic losers!

omenkaLives:
That was the same person that once said.. .

Partnerbiz:
No such law in Anambra and Imo.

Maybe because I was born in Lagos or that I did excellently well with my Yoruba classes as a student but the truth remains that Lagos representatives have rights to make certain moves to preserve and grow their culture and their language.

If you have ever witnessed non Yorubas who don't even understand the language fight for positions in Lagos, you'd be irritated. A certain Igbo politician in 2015 contested for the governorship of Lagos and he claimed he is contesting because he understands the Yoruba way of life and their culture. All these he said in English. When a caller called Channels TV to ask him questions, he was asked to interpret 'Lagosians, I greet you, I need your votes' and that was where trouble started.

An average Lagosian communicates with Pidgin while the typical Igbo language is used in Enugu, not minding whether you are Igbo or not. Based on my encounter, I am not motivated to learn the Igbo language largely because L1 speakers believe I must learn their language because I am in their land.

You cannot get a civil servant job if you aren't Igbo or even from Enugu here. My point is, we are fast getting to the point where every man would answer his father's name. It would have been a different ball game if this move was initiated in Delta State, owing to the fact that we have several ethnic groups.

It is now a case of 'get of of the kitchen if you cannot stand the heat'. Lagos was far more developed than any region before Independence and Yoruba was widely spoken then. I am not sure it would change now that the Yoruba language is now mandatory.

gidgiddy:
But if the same Igbos say they want to go their way as Biafrans, it will be you Nigerians who will be ready to go to war in other to be with the same Igbos.

gidgiddy:
There is no stand on this matter. In Igbo land, you can be rejected for marriage for a wide range of issues from your family name to the fact that your propective in-laws dont like your face. So if a person gets rejected for being an Osu, then that is not the right family to marry into.

BigBrother9ja:
Shut the fùck up!
All igbos are osus by Gene

PrecisionFx:
"" In fact for this reason and ancient meaning of 'Igbo' in Delta Igboland, their early forefathers rejected the 'Igbo' tag because they didn't consider themselves as 'slaves'.""

Go back to ur village and tell whoever told u this trash that it is a blatant lie.

letusbepieces:
U WILL HAVE TO DO MORE PREACHING THAN THIS BECOS PEOPLE HAVE ALREADY USE THIS ONE AND IT DID NOT WORK.

THE ONLY SOLUTION IS TO GIVE IGBOS A NEW OSU AND YORUBA FIT THE BILL.

Stingman:
Truth is that you FEAR the Igbos..no be so?

In your heart can you swear that this Law is not meant to hurt the Igbos?

Will it hurt the northerners...the Ijaws as much...? The answer is no...

How about that little coward?

ODVanguard:
It's called 'Akpu Logic'.

uba1991:
So if u get Biafra where are u putting d OSU. A house dat is divided cannot stand.

letusbepieces:
THE BEST WAY TO PUT OSU TO REST IS TO TRANSFER THE TITLE TO YORUBAS FULLY.

I MEAN, THEY ARE ALREADY OSU BY MARRIAGES, SO NO BIG DEAL CONDEMNING ALL YORUBAS AS OSU.

@ Fifthwave THIS IS THE ONLY HOPE LEFT FOR U.

ONCE, ALL THE YORUBA BECOMES OSU, THEN U BECOME NWAFOR.

IF IGBO DONT GET A REPLACEMENT OSU, THEN U CONTINUE TO BE OSU.

THUS THE YORUBA OSU IS A NECESSARY EVIL.

WE OFFER THE YORUBAS IN PLACE OF U TO THE gODS AS SUBSTITUTE.

marvin904:
the day an igbo rule Lagos..
my grand mom will raise from the grave..

Fifthwave:
Sad, but that's the reality. I am Osu and a Christian. It is surprising that fellow Christians still discriminate against our caste. The worse is the fact that very enlightened people still succumb to this age old belief!

Sanchez01:
In Imo State, three classes of individuals exist. These are the “free born” (Diala), the enslaved outcasts (Osu, Ohu or Oru) and Ume (those prone-to-die).
https://www.google.com.ng/amp/s/www.vanguardngr.com/2016/05/osu-caste-system-dead-myth-reality/amp/

I got wind of the Ume recently during a session at the office. I find it quite fascinating but haven't gotten sound materials to read on it.

Fifthwave:
The "Oru" (plural - Orus), meaning "Slaves"

deomelllo:
How did you gyrate from language to religion?

Hausa language is not Arabic or Islamic language.

These ipob bigots sef..

Sanchez01:
I think it is sickening and hypocritical because Igbos are culturally inclined and judgemental St the same time. You deny people the joy of being with themselves simply because some criminal elements among you call a fellow human slave and unworthy of social interaction with his peers because the others are freeborn.

You need to have a friend who is affected directly before you would understand the horror of this horrible practice.

Social interactions between the three classes of people in Igboland is still very much alive, as much as they would want to claim that they have evolved and outgrown these practices.

BlackAfrican:
They will cry of marginalization but still marginalize themselves

Sanchez01:
'You think'? It's so sad you don't even understand the heatmap of your people's practices.

letusbepieces:
u are still chest beating about ur phantom legislation that will be null.

I am more interested in proscription of Yoruba from marrying Igbos.

In Nigeria we all have our interest and dislike.

Soon we will pressure Ohanaeze and South East Gov to declare anybody that marry Yoruba family Osu.

As for SS oil companies they must sure now relocate to Warri, Port Harcourt and Uyo.

Federal Gov must build deep seaport in Delta, Rivers and Akwa Ibom.

Yoruba have don their own we must surely do our own.

Hegehegehegehege!

My brother in the lordt, I didn't read all your responses because fùck you bruh. idiocy bores me.

Nyen nyen nyen, shut up! If you don't come for me i won't come for you. Don't play the victim now after you started running your mouth in your first post to me.. like an uncultured smello.

As usual, you sound daft. Who is obligated to help anyone? Whether stranger or in-law? The only people I can truly fall back on are my immediate biological family I.e. parents and siblings, but even they owe me nothing. And I can expect their help will be limited as they have their own problems. But you are busy expecting help from strangers and anyone who your family member has invested vaginà in his life. Lol. good luck with your shameless and entitled strategy. Beggardom bodes well on thee.
