[quote author=LordExecutioner post=32582716][/quote]How can one individual write that crap and claim to representing all yorubas from around the globe?

You go siddon for another man land dey wait make time pass make you claim citizenship and you can still shamelessly spew absolute junk calling your fellow Countrymen 'foreigners' in their own Country?

I believe many of the Igbos were given birth to in the West, including Lagos, so you aspiring to be awarded citizenship in other continents have no basis to refer to these people as foreigners in their own Country.

Secondly, no matter the negative experience we must have had with Igbos at one point or another in the past, we MUST do the RIGHT thing NOW which includes condemning any sort of threat to freedom against any group of people. Besides, the writer managed to rightly point out that there will definitely the many individuals from this same group who live peacefully and contribute to development; then why persecute the WHOLE tribe?

Had a similar idea.

I'm in full support.

Nigeria is for all and we will never beg anybody.. We are in our country and if don't like it then help us fulfill our biafra dream.. But till then Nigeria is for all and the constitution of Nigeria clearly states it.. The yoruba's are in no way doing us any fovour.. What kind of nonsense favour.. Are we Not in our country?? Nigeria is for all of us.. Have never Heard that New Yorker will tell a person form California to beg him cause he is staying in his land.. Stupidity!! OP stop ur nonsense...

What I and many other Nigerians wish for is a Country where as you stated, individuals from one part can live peacefully and prosper in any other part of his Country.

Despite the fact that I will not support any hateful comment or agenda against any individual or group of people, I think we have to look at this issue through unbiased lenses. First, it is actually a fact that while non-igbos find it extremely difficult to thrive within Igbo regions, better conditions are encouraged for Igbos to prosper when they venture into other regions. I think you have to look at the truths in this statement.

I think you should appreciate this fact when you take into account the Igbos you find occupying key positions in the governance of many States. In fact, even on this forum, when certain individuals mention 'Igbo States' they now include Rivers and Delta which we know Igbos only migrated to in the past. I believe this is one of the reasons why the unfortunate hate-influenced speech by the Oba is supported by many.

The yorubas wouldn't want their cultural heritage to be subdued and eventually Lagos would be termed one of the 'Igbos States' rather than a free Nigerian State. Recall, that did not stop them from supporting an 'Igbo man' to contest and win a seat in the national assembly.

We all know at least for now that an Ijaw, urhobo or yoruba man would not be allowed such privilege in any Igbo State. For a prosperous union the relationship has to be symbiotic.

Besides a New york man would not go to California and intend to make it ' New York Annex', while making life difficult for the Californian in New York!

I doubt if it's the same person. They just have similar neck tattoos.

Look at the tattoos closely and the different angles in which the tattoos incline on both necks.

LAGOS- BELONGS TO THE YOURBA'S

ABUJA- BELONGS TO THE GWARRI'S

IGBO SHOULD BE VERY CAREFUL WITH THEIR STATEMENTS.

IF THEY TRY THE NONSENSE THEY ARE DOING IN LAGOS, THEY WILL BE ROASTED. grin

Oga, e Don do. No go burst an artery. Leave Igbo pipu matter Abeg! Since yesterday, haba!

Igbo own don finish o! Na wa!

OsunOriginal:
The king has spoken and that is final.

Igbos have been warned - I only hope they will not go against the directive of the king.

Doing so will be at your own peril.

So are the Igbos supposed to be scared now?

E be lyk say Igbos plenty for that Lagos well well and their votes fit cause havoc lol.

But why the perception that ALL the Igbos in Lagos will vote for Jim Agbaje?

kropotkin2:
not gonna happen for yero. not even if the whole southern kaduna PDP vote for him. Imagine, in the whole entire north west southern kaduna produced the only PDP senator. The minority will bow to the wishes of the majority

Bro, El Rufai will still garner enough votes from S/Kaduna.

mubarak23:
the cluless mukhtar is planning to cause asala in four LGA of the state namely zaria(his own hometown,), sabon gari, soba and ikara in order for him to rig the election next week saturday, and he is also planning to stop the use of card reader in southern kaduna in order for him to rig the governoship election , and also he is planning to hold a meeting with SPO on thurday.

E go hard!
Just recall the presidential poll, then project. You can only imagine what the gubernatorial poll would look like.

I don't think anyone would have difficulty knowing who the governor would be in the next four years.

El Rufai

raumdeuter:
GO to your own state and make your rulers irrelevant

As for the indigenes of Lagos, they are perfectly okay with their Oba.

If any visitor doesnt like it then take the next Chisco bus

Bro, observers from outside would see flaws, point them out to you in order to make improvements.
Not everyone who points out facts on this thread has anything to do with Lagos.
And certainly, not everyone who expresses his/her disappointment here is Igbo.

If true, What that oba uttered was just despicable!

No matter how much he wishes to nurture personal hate against a group of people, as a privileged public figure, he has no right to incite such in those who care to revere his traditional title.

Khalessi:
I know the purpose of nairaland is to keep its readers informed but topics like this should be reduced. It brings out the tribalistic nature of most people. Reading how Yorubas supported the earliest thread brought tears to my eyes.....some are supporting genocide. If you leave the shores of Nigeria no one cares what tribe you're.why can't we live like that in our own country?

Bro. What these groups gain from their mutual hate still eludes me.
It doesn't add one naira to their pockets, doesn't better their lives! Most still in poverty and penury and the worst part part, they keep disturbing the peace of other Nigerians like they are the only ones in this Country.

I thought the foolishness was restricted to kids online, but it seems they learnt well from older folks.

I don't want to believe a traditional leader said that cos even a sane 10 year old will not utter such.

Live on AIT

Funny!

That one go mean say make e begin dey prepare congratulatory message for d next opposition.

Believe it, Nigeria has changed! Well-meaning Nigerians who are on a steady increase would condemn sectional governance without thinking twice. #NeverAgain

Good.
Meeeehhn I dey feel this change already!

All thanks to Jega, Tinubu and The President Buhari


#TrueFighters

Cool down. We cannot take that from him. We'll definitely give honour to whom honour is due.

I wonder if he would be accepted into the APC if he intends to join the party.

Would it be wise?

Please we would like to see a considerable number of new names in this new administration. Not a new round of recycling the old peeps in a new party.

Anyway, I'm trusting GMB to deliver and call on well-meaning Nigerians to put their hands on deck.

Congrats Everyone

Orubebe?

Ok! That agent of the opposition party?

This one go mark people scripts, sign certificate! Smh

His name just came in. . .















Prof Orubebe!

Baba don siddon for ground o






Hope things won't get messy

See yawa o!

@ OP I would have expected 'Congratulations to ALL Nigerians'. As whatever affects one Nigerian affects ALL Nigerians.

GOD bless Nigeria!

Though majority of Nigerians yearn for a better leadership irrespective of who wins this election, it would be better to wait for the final declaration of the winner.

Until then, I still leave my # open.

Listen o

SomebodyLovesMe:
I will answer your question.
GEJ is the worst president ever to rule this nation. Whether he was Hausa, Igbo, Yoruba, or any other tribe, based on his performance, he would have gotten the same reaction from Nigerians.
Have you forgotten that Yorubas voted him in in 2011? What, then, are you talking about?
Unfortunately for the SS, they put forward the worst person who could possibly represent them. I am sure there are better candidates the SS could have put forward. And it will most likely negatively affect their chances in future.

But you should also remember that it was not a case of SS putting a candidate forward. He was selected as the running mate to his predecessor and had to take the mantle following his boss's demise; which was constitutional.

So I don't believe there should be difficulty in any section of the Country bringing a qualified candidate forward in the future. I believe it should based on other attributes than region.

O boy, election don finish o!

Warms?
Na wit slapp?

Just my thinking... elections may still hold tomorrow o! so we should shift the public holiday to Tuesday
