Stop being mischievious.

The land ownership being talked about in this context is about "control".

When you say Lagos is a "no man's land", they are not referring to the constitution, they are saying "no one has the control" over this land.

I never say lagos is a no mans land. lol.. You guys and being insecure about land ownership is just pathetic. I said lagos belong to the Nigeria country. Its a state in Nigeria.



When an English man tells a Nigerian who is a British passport holder that - You can ONLY be a British, but you can NEVER be an English - What do you think they are talking about ?.


You make no sense here



When an American tells you to your face to go to your country despite you being a US passport holder, what are they talking about ?.

They tell you but they cannot take you out of America. You have the passport and have the same right as them. Dont be naive. Same right any tribe have in lagos as Nigerian.


By the virtue of their constitution, you are referred to as an American or British, but deep down, they do not really see you as part of them.

Apart or Not, their country have constitution that guide them. A white american doesnt have right more than black British in Britain.


By your flawed logic, a Yoruba should aspire to become Sultan in Sokoto and Ibo should aspire to be Oba of Lagos since no tribe owns anywhere in Nigeria.

No, those are traditional title and tradition is linked to ethinicity. Dont be a child. They can aspire to be governors or any Elective government office in any state. They have that right

I repeat, Yoruba land belongs to the Yoruba people, just like Awka belongs to the Ibos and Gwari people own Abuja.

Okay, if it makes you sleep well at night.. have at it... lol

Bye

codemaniacs:
There is no ethnicity known as "Nigerian" so in reality there's nothing like Nigerians.

[s]You are a Nigerian and uses Nigerian passport and live under the Nigerian law and not your ethnic law. [/s]

Nigeria is just a location on a map created by eu:ropeans , it is not the ethnicity of anybody.

Ethnicity is not the base of country creation or nation formation. You are an adult, you should know that many countries in Africa are multi ethinic. Even outside africa, we have multi-racial. At the present moment, Yo are living under the Nigeria government. I am sure you sing national anthem in school instead of your ethinic song.

the constitution or any piece of paper can never override ethnic claims.

Dont be a child, you are bound by your constitution. It overides your ethinicity claim to land ownership. Until the day your ethinicity form their own country, your rights to land ownership is bound by the Nigerian constitution. lol

we are not tribes, we are nations ( ethnic nations )...

The word tribe and nation are used interchangeably but hold very different meanings for many Native people.


europeans don't use the word tribe to describe themselves.

MT:
So by your explanation, Anambra land does NOT belong to the Ibo

Benin Land does NOT belong to Edo people.

And Sokoto Land does NOT belong to the Hausas.

Why are they killing themselves off in Ukraine and Gaza.

Yorubas own Lagos State. Yorubas rule Lagos, collect taxes on it and determine how it is to be spent. Yorubas own the South West of the country. Lagos State is the heritage of all the Yorubas.

I ask again, if Nigeria should split along the tribal line, will the Ibo from Enugu refer to Lagos State as the capital or Northerners will lay claim to Lagos State. Will Yorubas claim Abuja, despite being the Capital of Nigeria from the Northerners or Yorubas will claim Owerri from Ibos?

Will Scottish people claim London, despite being the capital of UK, from English people or English people will claim Glasglow from the Scots, despite being in the UK together?

How some individuals reason will never stop to amaze me.

MT:
Is this what we should be discussing?

I guess we should be talking about how each state will compete with themselves for greatness.

Which states in Nigeria look sane and organised right now?

[s][s]Whoever created Lagos should not be an issue, Lagos State belong to the Yoruba.[/s][/s]

If Nigeria should split along tribal line, will Ibo or Hausa or Benin come and make Lagos state part of their lands?

I need the humidifier.

Are you talking about Yatch or SUV? As for Yatch i said ask the Nigerian Navy of which i am not their spokesperson.

nedu666:
See how everywhere quite because it did not happen in the east. Ordinary soludo talk about idolatry don reach 6 pages. But the killing of 20 persons is still in half page. I tell you verily
One lgbo life = 520 Yoruba lives
One lgbo life = 1000 northern lives

Godfullsam:
You are insane.

Children of hate and bitterness.

Everybody is agbadorian in your book. Almajiri ruled your ass for 8 yrs and agbado is gona rule you for another 8yrs.
Best you all can do is to wail and spit bitterness all day long.
Continue to insult other regions as they continue to rule, oppress and marginalize you people.

UnknownT:
The same way they lied against Peter Obi that he demolished Mosques when he was a Governor, they have started that same agenda against Wike on Twitter that he also demolished Mosques in Rivers State when he was a governor
Because they know they have idiotssss who will readily believe any nonsense they dish out against Southern politicians

imwaya:
That's Israel's propaganda, get a neutral perspective on the issue.

imwaya:
Is it a Palestinian resistance or Islamic? Last time I checked, Hamas came into being as a result of the League of Nations creating Israel and allowed settlers from elsewhere come to occupy Palestinian lands, then keep murdering the original owners of the land. Hence, we have Hamas.

I'm indifferent to their issues, but one thing I won't take is misrepresentation of facts by you or anyone. I'll urge you to watch Prof Akinyemi's interview on Arise to get an unbiased side if what is. Don't be blinded by your hate if Islam.

Ever8090:
This is getting tougher...

Let's note that, this is not really a religious war as some people are viewing it, there are more Muslims in Israel than Christians and there are more Christians in Gaza than on Israel.

So let's pray for peace in the region and not only for Israel of Palestine...

Some people are saying the Jews does not love Christians yet Christians are supporting them, but it is also clear that Muslims don't love Christians too.,which means, this war is far from been a religious war

imwaya:
Who said that this war is about Islam? Go and read history before coming here to spew hate.
