NSK4U:
The former first lady (Mimiko's) was a Yoruba

so

why must it always be a Yoruba woman first lady and yet we keep fighting and even killing for the sake of one Nigeria? Is that not hypocrisy?

NSK4U:
......lol at surugede

ma own is that no stone should be left unturned in the process of returning AKETI to power, as a matter of fact, he should be warming up for the federal positions after his second term. It's leaders like him that are desired for a multi ethnic and religious state as Nigeria.

I swear if you enter that firstbank building though modernized you can still feel the Class and Suffistication it was built with..... and the buildings surrounding it help give up this atmosphere that just reminds you that anything is possible yet still giving you nostalgia and a taste of the past.....the presence of Eko lie in those streets.

Beremx:
Beautiful write up. The history of Lagos is vast.

My problem with these historical facts is that why isn’t it taught in schools? Not only history of Lagos but Nigeria as a whole. I got to find out recently that history is no longer taught in schools? This is sad

In

Come back here, I'm ready to expose your lies.

Because it's sounded igbo have you research what it means in Yoruba?
Have your research how they come about the "igbo" name?

Have you researched how it's being pronounced?

Anywhere you see "igbo" in Yoruba land it means Bush and pronunced as BUSH.

Except some cases where it means India hemp.

If them born you well can you come over to spill this trash in the palace??

I dey vex self.

See revisionist of history of the highest order.

You have a very valid point and I don't for once doubt your sincere concern for the people of Ondo, Yoruba at large and our sovereign country.
Realistically, galvanizing votes along this line is a task insurmountable for this forthcoming election due to reasons such as

1. Incumbency factor : The ruling party which also hold ace at the federal are caught in this quagmire and risk loosing the coveted seat.

2. The 1st alternative option (PDP) that could have been resorted to have been enmeshed in same situation.

3. A third force must have set the ground running for a long period just like Otoge in Kwara (won in all local governments) which began more than a year before the election day in order to come out glaringly victorious and forestall any internal or external rigging plot.

The issue at hand is like the proverbial bone which got stuck in the neck. It must be carefully dealt with, in tactical patience. After its ease, the youth can be strategically sensitized on its danger, how it has affected us and the reason to never allow such around the corridor of power.

Our option FROM NOW ON, is to waylay both parties primary election before 2024 having continuously resonated the importance of our submissions, and how it is taking a toll on the growth and development of our ethnicity to present unmixed candidates.

Gabkosh:
Lol, even as your mothers full baby factory ready to deliver.

95% of you are from the baby factory.

Your women don't even know who sleeps with them to produce you in the factory, they don't really know the sperm that produce you.

You know these in your heart but as normal, you must keep living in denial.
Metaphysical, see who is replying you below.

How can human looks this horrible chai.

So this is the kind of person yoruba woman will now want to marry. So disgusting. Graphic.

Gabkosh:
Keeo lying to your ancestors, it wont stop the move. You can cry victim for all we care, no be today. The world knows your race for that.

No one cares. Same way you don't celebrate thieves and ex convicts according to you but reverse is the case.


Here is ex convict and a theif being celebrated in your osu land.

hajimosho:

The reason why there is uproar in Ondo is majorly because of the present first lady's overbearing interference in the administration of her husband. However, it won't be same in all situations.

Real men don't give room for such, and at that, Rotimi Akerodolu had below pass mark in separating his family affairs from the state's political administration. At a point in time, he wanted to appoint his son, Babajide as the Chief of Staff which was met with a stiff resistance. Akeredolu has not neccessarily failed his people in overall governance.

The politics of inclusiveness brought us where we are but it is very germane to set a boundary line for those who always choose to deride our ethnic background.

A call for a Yoruba first lady might not go through now, but we can only put much pressure on our government to put Yoruba agenda first in all representations within the region.

Gabkosh:
Instead of the idiot that you qouted to mention one in his region, he shamelessly diverted to benue. What is the correlation.

Daddysidhan:
Oga metaphysical wehdon sir, on behalf of all yorubas on nairaland" I salute your courage.

richiemcgold:
I managed to read the whole piece twice and I was able to come across some new facts:
*Lagos was already a booming and developed area before British came around
*Portuguese were doing business without meddling so much in internal politics of the locals
*British are like agents of disruption. they came around and scuttled the existing political/traditional structure and turn the locals against each other.
*the op referred to traditional ruler as eleko. How come he now bears oba today?

Frenchkiss564:
There used to be a thread on lagos property owners compiled from lagos state government data.

The thread indeed showed that contrary to popular myth the Yorubas owned about 75% of landed properties in Lagos.

I wish I can lay hands on the thread.

The Legal Complexities
The challenge to the federal government assets, the ownership of some of the land on which they occupy is contested. The Special Committee that was appointed by Governor Ambode also identified, majority of the federal government properties are situated on land that is vested in Lagos State. Officials in the Lagos State Government argue, When Lagos became a Crown Colony, the title to the whole Lagos Island became vested in the Lagos State that also include Ikoyi, Osborne Foreshore, Banana Island, Festac Town which some of the federal government buildings occupy.

The Lagos State claims title to land such as that host the International Trade Fair Complex (now being used as a market), as Lagos State acquired the land was acquired on behalf of the federal government which promised to pay compensation which is outstanding. This entails, the Federal Housing Authority (FHA) is a tenant of the Lagos State Government.

Really? If I can get a link to that lemme laugh my ass out

I agree with you, but we're currently between the sea and the devil.

If we didn't vote for apc this year.
It will affect us in 2023, if a Yoruba man becomes the president .

But Jegede's wife is also from the south-south so how are we sure we won't be jumping from the frying pan to the fire itself?

Randerl:
Finally somebody heard my thoughts to tie the knots on these same issues.

God bless you sir.

llakes4real:
The bigger picture, Akeredolu should win that state so that he can hold it down for the Yoruba presidential candidate of 2023.

As regard the marriage, how else would you assimilate the foreigners in Yorubaland? We have to marry these people, but am sure their children would be Yorubanized, so it is still a win for the Yoruba people and culture.
