DesChyko:
What do we call our dogs here in Nigeria? 😁😁😁

Bingo, Riro.

rollywise:
This known mad man. I know his house in Abeokuta. This mad man ensured the name of the labor party gubernatorial candidate did not get to inec on time hence was not registered even after winning the party primaries. He then went to endorse the governor under APC for second term of course with huge alert. Now he's spewing garbage online. He will eventually run mad

That's assassinating the enviable character of Arambabi. Hope you have enough money in your account to engage Femi Falana as your lawyer when you receive the court summon for your court appearance for this your unsubstantiated allegation

Fake poll results. November will decide it. Stop appeasing your fears with fake narratives.

You did it in the last Nigerian elections, comforting yourself with lies, and now what was the final outcome? Pure failure.

Realtruth2023:
Herbert Macaulay na pure Isale Eko. so these ones are not yardsticks bro. it just shows you that anyone be it igbo, Hausa or Yoruba can come and make Lagos their Home. so you tribal bigots should take a chill pill and relax.

No, Igbos and Hausas can't come and claim our Lagos, the same way we Yorubas cannot come and claim Onitsha and Kano from the two tribes. So you Igbo tribal usurpers, stay your lane. Stop being greedy after other people's lands.

Realtruth2023:
you are desperate. All the guys you mentioned are indigenes of Lagos. You are not from Lagos, the onus is on you to face your state. At least every easter or ileya go back to your state.

You are seriously wrong, all the people mentioned were from different regions of Yoruba land:

Madam Efunroye Tinubu - from Abeokuta
Herbert Macaulay - Saro of Liberia descent
Fela - Abeokuta
Tom Jones - Another Saro
Sunny Ade - Ondo town
Etc.

Tinubu's deeply ingrained uncaring attitude about the suffering of the masses, who are enduring terrible hunger and bloody violence across the land, has finally eroded whatever political sympathy his supporters initially had for him.

Wrong narrative, Lagos State has always belonged to all Yoruba migrants as attested to by the following:

*YORUBA BUILT LAGOS BEFORE NIGERIA BECAME A COUNTRY*

By: *Prof. Ayo Ojeniyi*


*The Yorubas built Lagos*

The aim of This Post is an Attempt to correct The Dangerous Misinformation trending AMONG SOME YOUTHS. That, Lagos was developed with Nigeria's Monies, when *Lagos was not even part of Nigeria until 1914*.

The media pushes death and they do it very well.
The next WW3 is the media

With Nairaland and its bigots as the WW3 invasive Generals.

Wait till our boy get to obodo oyibo.

Elzazzi:
Una don start una mumuness again

Yes sir, until that day caught you unprepared and you find yourself on the wrong side of the divide line. Do not say then that I did not warn you.

KingCassy:
Pls apart from ait which other channel Jesus Christ!!!!

Best watched on HD football app.

Ademola Lookman everywhere seeking to score. Oshimen in.

2nd half on. SE still pressing hard.

Elon Musk, Satan right hand man in his world domination agenda, gathering wealth for the 666 project.

Half time: 0:0.

The Rwandans are afraid. Game in Nigeria favour till this moment.

Nigeria is definitely the master of today's game. Pressure is mounting heavily on the Rwandan team. We almost scored just now Boniface hit the crossbar.

This is one of best Nigeria team put together in the recent years. Hope they maintain the same passion and enthusiasm in all coming matches, both WC and AFCN.

Cocolatti:
The man was rich before becoming a Governor.

Rich from doing what?

Tell that to the birds.

OBIGS:
I had a dream that a uprising happened in Nigeria due to current suffering in Nigeria. In my dream citizen United and stormed government houses and killed politicians that are corrupt. Tinubu and his family had to flee and seek asylum in France. Young military officer had to take over the mantle and lead Nigeria to become a progressive nation

Na so you dream am, or you just dey tell us story? And does your dreams always come true, so dat I may start preparing.

As I stated above four years ago, have fewer children. To dey born born no good.

The fewer, the better.

Even the Oyibo people dey count child rearing costs before dem giv birth now.

MIKOLOWISKA:
will you take over raising the child when she becomes homeless.
Will govt officials take care of the child better than this 'abuser'
Think am

Evil man supporting his own type of people. So they should leave her with them until they kill her?

Thank God, at least the transfer drama over him is over. No salary loss and big hope of an active playing time in a relatively good club until a better offer comes.

ChybuzzDD:
Your allies and co-destroyer of Nigeria are lamenting and you're laughing at them

No other region has ever done the level of harm the SW and far North have done to the country.

Except the South East.

Dogalmighty17:
Leviticus 16:10
9 And the goat which is marked out for the Lord, let Aaron give for a sin-offering. 10 But the goat for Azazel is to be placed living before the Lord, for the taking away of sin, that it may be sent away.

Satisfied?

Wrong and mischievous quotation, the correct one is as below:

Leviticus 16:9. And Aaron shall bring the goat upon which the LORD'S lot fell, and offer him for a sin offering. 10. But the goat, on which the lot fell to be the scapegoat, shall be presented alive before the LORD, to make an atonement with him, and to let him go for a scapegoat into the wilderness.

My sister too in umuahia

Sorry.

May she rests in perfect peace.

TUTU147:
They are celebrating because the new dig is yoruba,we can't move forward as a country if we continue doing the same thing like this.Bichi might have his own fault as a human,but replacing him with yoruba man is another level of nepotism.

Do you at all read the news, he was replaced by an Hausa man.
