Bekool: So because ngige contested elections in acn that automatically makes tinibu a benefactor to ngige? Yoruba people sef with their amala and ewedu political reasoning.
Asgard13: Abuja na gbagi land not even Hausa Fulani can lay claim Igbos are not Fulani that lay claim to land We buy develop... and do business... not having issue with indigenous people..
Igbo are next to indigenous people in every state in Nigeria... yet no stories of igbos brickering with any tribe
Yoruba says igbos are hAted in Nigeria... yet no other tribe have issues with igbos except Yoruba people
Just yesterday Zulum made a mention of it...
But what’s Yoruba problem with igbos .. they don’t travel but assume without facts..... then go ahead to propagate this propaganda to what purposes
Yoruba has been travelling the world and erecting cities at home while your ancestors were in forest ambushing and trapping their kins for choicy morsels.
T8ksy: No, I haven't been to Kano nor do I see any need to visit your Sabo however, my point still stands.
In spite of your huge presence in northern states and the "development "you allegedly bring to these states i.e kano, dem no born reach to request for representations in their Local govt.
Abi, no be your "oil money" dem take build Abuja? I dare any of you covetous folks to go to Abuja and declare it a "No man's land".
The price of suya will nose-dive in all the markets in the country.
hajimosho: They are more reasonable than ipobs. They have never done that and will never propose same. We have mutual respect for each other when it comes to defining boundaries.
It's only down east, they chiver at the instance of the Hausas.
The "disoriented class" loves to fantasize all kinds of negativity, and when they do they always put Hausa/Fulani forward as their proxy. Its because of their fear of Yoruba.
They accept they cannot fight and win Yoruba so they create a mock conflict involving Yoruba and Hausa.
JAMO84: What transpired today between the minister of labour, Senator Chris Ngige and the member representing Ikeja federal constituency at the lower chamber of the national assembly, Hon. James Abiodun Faleke is a show of arrogance and ungratefulness on the part of the minister.
Ngige was a puppet Governor of Anambra state installed by the then 36 year old Andy Uba who later orchestrated the famous kidnap attempt on him when he refused to play ball. Rumour had it that he hid in a toilet where he called for help before Tafa Balogun sent the state commissioner of police to go rescue him.
Ngige was later removed by the Court while Peter Obi took over as the Governor. The Ubas eventually ran Ngige out of the PDP. Few months later, he found solace in the Action Congress of Nigeria (ACN), single handedly founded and funded by the lion of Burdillon. On the platform of the ACN, he staged a comeback by winning a senatorial election, it's his good fortune on Tinubu platform that makes him one of the APC bigwigs from the south east after ACN merged with others to form APC.
At party level, it is safe to say that Tinubu has been political leader to Ngige since 2003 to date. While Tinubu has won all his elections in Lagos state, Ngige remains the one and only Governor to be abducted in the history of Nigeria.
Ngige lost his re - election to the Senate, getting less than 25% of all votes caste, he has remain a political paper weight in Anambra, while Tinubu is a force to reckon with in Nigeria's political landscape.
Politically or otherwise, Senator Chris Ngige is not fit to lace Tinubu's shoes. Tinubu remains his benefactor and a national leader in the APC where Ngige belong.
Magaji accused the minister of condescending too low “by appearing at the hallowed chambers of the National Assembly only to exhibit traits comparable to those coming from a disoriented class
BlowYourMind: Has Tinubu ever govern any state in the poverty capital of the south? Why are they shouting his name as it he made the place economic and political inviable?
Thats what I asked ibos yesterday.
He could have created a VI in Anambra to brag. Property tax in the community goes to his Ibo people and improve IGR.....
Instead....Ngige took their money to Lagos, bought property in VI to brag. While he brags Yoruba collects his property tax and improve IGR.
I dont know which people call Ibo an entrepreneur. They know to hustle but lack business sense.
They are labourers, not business strategists at all.
blackgold90: That is not the issue, beside calabar was a former capital of Nigeria.
Read your history well.
Since capital is the highest value to you and is the cause of your flooding to Lagos and Abuja, why cant you demand for a capital so your people can stay at home and stop being economic migrant around Nigeria?
proeast: You are just jumping from pillar to post, making ilogical assertions. As long as Nigeria remains one country, Igbos have as much right as any other Nigerian in Lagos.
We don't need to write to the UN when we are busy buying up the place and sending you guys to Ogun state. Was it not your brothers that were shamelessly crying on national television on how Igbos have left them homeless? Grown ass lazy men coming on national television to cry and beg Tinubu their god to save them from Igbos Anyone who saw that show of shame will think that Igbos are using guns to displace them whereas it was our money that we used in buying the lands from them, only for them to waste it on useless owambe and start crying
Aside the bullion van rogue and his bands of criminals who are milking Lagos dry, how has being a Yoruba helped you in Lagos? So doing agbero and omonile, and living under the bridge while constituting nuisance makes you a master while Igbos that are buying lands and building mansions are the slaves? Lol, you can continue consoling yourselves if that's what makes you to sleep at night.
Cry from now till infinity, buy all the land and water....Lagos remains a Yoruba possession and ownership, and you are still a guest in it.....Nigeria or no Nigeria.
proeast: I don't know why you like comparing apples with oranges just to justify your tribal rants. How many times will they educate you on the status of Lagos in Nigeria? If Ngige left Anambra to live in say Osun, Oyo or any other SW state then you can make such argument but he is living in Lagos, Nigeria's former capital for donkey years.
Is the development of Lagos a legacy of Yorubas or because it was a former capital. Are Yorubas not living in Abuja? So, let's assume that Nigeria moves the capital to Jos in 2050, then the Gwaris in Abuja will start telling Yorubas that they're living there because they couldn't develop their region?
To whom brain is giving, sense is expected.
Your argument is again flawed!
Lagos remains Yorubaland. If you like cry from now till eternity!
All Obas in Lagos remain Yorubas. All Baales in Lagos remain Yorubas.
Let us know to change its status when an Iboman sit on any throne in Lagos Oba Council.
For now you remain our slaves in Lagos.
If you detest your status write to UN to give you your own Lagos or Abuja in East.
godwon01: He lives in VI . What is a big deal in VI Go there now ,flooded with water. No drainage system. Everything is 6ft. We came with nothing and will go with nothing . Talking like a gheto man . I think he was a trained medical Doctor. He lacks ethics of the profession. Shame on him for showing off his I'll gotten wealth. Very careless talk Buhari has told them to respect the members of the house and I don't know why they are disrespecting them. Foolish people.
No mind am. He should have built a VI in Anambra when he was governor.
Its not late, he is minister of labor....he should direct Ibo manpower to a renewal project and create a VI in his state or anywhere in East.
He cant because they dont know how to create urban cities. I hope he pays tax in VI sha.
Jagaban go give am Kalu treatment. Orji Kalu tried same shyyte. Before he knows it his property was sealed for dodging tax.
shalom4eva: Around 2012 I got to know nairaland when I was job hunting, little did I know something big awaits me . Fast forward to 2017, I met this pretty damsel (rebirth 4goody, formerly rebirthforgoody).
We became friends and later into a love relationship. To God be the glory, today we are happily married. Thanks to nairaland even though I didn't get any job through this platform,but I gained a lot of experience and a beautiful woman as wife .
Guys please show us some love and wish us well

YOU WILL BEGIN WITH TINUBU, WE ANSWER YOU, THEN YOU JUMP TO OSINBAJO....IF WE ANSWER YOU YOU GO TO AWOLOWO, THEN WE RESPOND....YOU RETURN BACK TO TINUBU....
Dpharisee: You are shocked that he floored Thief'nubu on national TV? If Igbos according to Gov Zulum are not scared of living in Borno with Boko Haram infestation who be Lagos rat like Tinubu who brought Faleke out from Mushin while Ngige owned a house in VI as a Medical Doctor before Tinubu became a Gov and started looting Lagos dry
A medical doctor, an ex governor, ex senator, minister....yet loosing elections back to back...and running from home to go live in a foreign land. Wetin dey pursue am?
