It does not rile Yoruba.
What riles the Yoruba is the culture of disrespect for your host community.

A Yoruba person would not leave his town, travel long and go and establish himself in Kano, Abuja, PH etc., become successful, and then open his mouth to call the host city a ''no man's land''! It is an insult to the history and heritage of the people and shows lack of proper home training

Not only this attitude.

The same people also do not want to even hear or listen to Yoruba language when they are in commercial buses, church testimonies etc. even though they are living and making a living in Yoruba land.

I agree with the first part but the second part has extenuating circumstances to it. Lagos is cosmopolitan filled with different people not just Igbos. First I think it's wrong to assert that people don't want to hear Yoruba. I know a lot of non indigenes that sing Yoruba songs with gusto. Go to churches for example. Even at parties and clubs without knowing what they're singing sef. Yorubas sing Igbo songs too.
But I think it's arrogant to presume everyone should know your language simply because they are in your land. It happens a lot in government offices. You arrive and a government official goes into Yoruba and the takes offence when you admit you don't know the language. This goes to every tribe. Igbos do it. Hausas do it.
We should go back to the days of programs like WAZOBIA to promote an understanding of our languages and foster mutual respect and unity.

Sleekfingers:
They have been warned.....The rubbish they tried or were saying , during the last election. Should never repeat itself .....

From some idiots calling my state a no man's land.....Is that not an insult?

Please provide evidence or shut up! And don't bring Nairaland banter as proof

CollectMoney:
Sure, lagos is the property of the Yorubas.

That the Yorubas even get worked up on this non-issue is bewildering.

You get? It's beginning to look like they are hiding something uncomfortable

The way this statement riles Yorubas eh. I do not believe a non indigene can make this kind of spurious claim to anyone's land.

Nnamdi Kanu is a very lucky person. If he were in the US, he would have been sentenced long ago for contempt of court. He is taking our judicial system for a ride.

A ride your judicial system personally went on a long time ago

LexngtonSteele:
I agree with you completely. After all the 2 idiots had you

You're still exhibiting childish stupidity. It has to be hunger now. It definitely is. Your salvo is nothing short of amusing. Keep your uncreative rubbish coming.

CyrusVI:
Thats true, Chika

He wasnt born

He ran into the Earth from the end of thr world(Sussex, England) and quickly migrate down there

Abeg show us a childhood picture. Una too defend wetin una no fit prove. Provide pictures and shame us once and for all

nedekid:
Where is wole Soyinka?

Smoking weed at the back of the building.

CyrusVI:


Its hard to just grow from nowhere and land at the top

I don't think your President would agree with you there 🤔

LexngtonSteele:
And extremely sizeable below... you just ask her when she returns home bowlegged

You're still exhibiting childish stupidity. Counsel yourself, you're grown up. Or aren't you?

BENEAMATA:
when you reach the main road , look left , look right , look left again ,oya cross and then keep trekking to the EAST end of your location . Gbam ! you don reach the land of the aforementioned Descendants . . Sorry , google map cannot help in establishing their origin

You are a coward. Call them by their name sir 😂😂😂

LexngtonSteele:
Your mama feels safe doing more than sitting on me

Didn't expect less. Intellectually bereft 😀

Wickedfact:
I don't feed pigs.

Then kindly shut up 😀

bassdow:
Dangote is really trying his BEST to make Nigerians understand whatEver price NNPC says they buy from him is false.

I presume there are conditions which prevents Dangote from saying things discussed in meetings

It's called a Non Disclosure Non Circumvention Agreement

LexngtonSteele:
Na yam.leggas. They were fighting over a Yoruba man.

I was there. Heard them shouting :

" Do you want me to marry a wo-MAN who hides under the bed on Mondays or you want me to drink corpse water and fight relatives over inheritance?"

"I will take you to Lagos" na him cause this one to cannibalize her friend

We laugh tire

I keep telling people that mental health is a very critical issue in Nigeria. And people will feel safe sitting next to you

Wickedfact:
Which money does this pauper have?
Every bush dwelling idiot from Biafra is opening mouth to talk trash.

Ask him to DM his account I dare you.

Christlike01:
Edo people have made their choice but it's the descendants of primitive, forest-dwelling ancestors that are crying all over!

Coward. Who are these descendants? Dem no get name?

"Ehlex" Igbo man pronunciation eh 😂😂😂

Web2020:
It is Igbo people that is looking for division every where.

It is Igbo people that will kpai you las las

His reply is even more stupid than the initial comment.

Creamcrest:
Obi abeg no provoke me this evening.

Your olumide akpata is an acclaimed benin man with a yoruba name and also it is the turn of the esans to produce a governor.According to Wikipedia akpata was born in Berlin,Germany which makes him not a Nigerian by law.


Hence the reason olumide the yoruba/Benin impostor was rejected.

Okpebholo is the only real edolite among the top contenders.

Even Asue ighodalo is half esan half yoruba.

God bless monday okpebholo.
God bless the good people of edo state.

Why is it chooking you like this nau?

What do Agbadorians call this kain watery yarns again? Ah yes, LAMBA...... 😂😂😂😂😂

Chucks13:
If dem born you well and born your fellow obidients morons well come 2027 to Lagos and SW and do nonsense you will regret you life.

Definitely hunger bad. DM your account number. I can do your monthly 30k 😂😂😂😂

faceland:
It would take "war" to kidnap the president. The bandits would need no fewer than 5000 well trained & well equipped men if they are serious or want to be successful.

The budget for moving 5k men to Abuja without being noticed is beyond them.

You sound worried. See analysis shaa 😀

Chucks13:
We are waiting for her by 2027 if her and Vivour step out as they did in 2023 trying to force their way on people throat in Lagos we will beat them to pulp with no one to rescue them, we are waiting for her, Vivour and Obingo bitch, dem go see shege promax..

I nor blame her I nnlmed the Lagosian for allowing a bastard like Aisha to even talked as per their state matter, who the hell is she? I hate her with passion..

It comes to Edo lection the bastard ran to Abuja here and hide but running her stupid mouth over Lagos affairs. Our hands to reach her one good day I swear.

Hunger bad

thesicilian:
Lol
That's an actual empty satchet of paracetamol

The cake gave the baker a headache

kiddkash:
I agree.
Nobody should ever come especially on nairaland to wail about fuel cost, food or taxes or coat of importation or economy downturn or floating of the currency.

Mods please take note, any online begging, the person should be banned

I totally agree. I will vote Tinubu in 2027 just to spite Nigeria

Lifestone:
I don't get, maybe there's something I'm missing.
The Policemen were there to effect a lawful arrest, the suspect resisted arrest, so what should the Officers have done?
In the USA, Police would have used Tasser on him and rendered him immobile. Anywhere in the World the issue would have escalated beyond this.
From the video, the Officers here were professional, using minimal force.

They will touch you one day

osazsky:
the case is dead on arrival..city is bigger than d epl...just like the UEFA case the highest city will get would be a fine

City is big I agree but there is a precedent. Points were deducted from Everton and Nothingham Forest. The rest of the league will revolt and the FA will not risk their already shaky credibility

toprealman:
You are a fan, he is a business man. His game ✂️

😂😂😂

osazsky:
remove city and Aston villa...na only man u and mid table teams dey fear asenal..the best u can get is a draw against city and loose against Southampton on the last game and city gets d epl again with 2 points it's a normal routine like beyern asssssing asenal in d ucl

Leave the past and look to the future. Isn't that what football dictates? Besides if I was a City fan I'd be worried about the number "115"

balladin:
While I commend arsenal for a solid performance, let me hope that we don't remember this match on the last day of the league and cry over the two points dropped.

I needed you to give the boys a break. They tried. After the red I didn't see them hanging on till the death against a rampant City. If Arsenal play like this there'd be no need to cry. They played away at Tottenham on Sunday, away at Italy on Thursday and away at Manchester City on Sunday and then with 10 men. Haba! The truth is teams including City now fear and respect Arsenal.
