So you prefer your states to be living off handouts from the FG?

Before you tax people to their deaths as it is happening in Lagos where many people are committing suicide at a mass scale,government should provide enabling environment first, in rich oil countries in Arabs world,people don't pay tax, they manage their oil money well and allow individual to enjoy the sweat of their labor, government should concentrate on building industries,attracting investment and not stealing poor peoples money in the name of IGR.

With one of the lowest IGRs in the country? Not sure what to applaud.

You really believe in this IGR scam ,nawa for you ,you should know that the higher the state IGR the poorer the citizens living in it,double taxation is not good for poor third world country like Nigeria where millions of people go to bed without food. Anambra state method is the best,tax only companies and lower taxes for business owners struggling to feed their family and send their children to school not the rubbish they are doing in lagos in the name of IGR and creating more poverty among it inhabitants.

After close to 60 years after independence the country is backward and highly tribalized and thrive in nepotism.

Yinmu. Look here Chikelue2000 or whatever, Lagos was destined to be great, with or without Igbo contribution. #Fact. The SW was already blazing the trail and setting the pace even during regionalism. You people should go and build something akin to Lagos in the SE then maybe we would begin to take you seriously. Till today, your region still can't boast of a standard CBD like the ones in Lagos, Abuja and the Ibadan one below, yet you are bragging about developing Lagos?? Till today una no even get a single building in your entire region that is as tall as Cocoa house that was built in the mid-sixties, and you dey there dey make mouth.

Just keep quite because lagos and Abuja was developed by FG with ND oil money
"Between self Lagos is not a yoruba land-Oba Akiolu "

Is normal thing in Naija now,the one in Iponri,lagos is like that,even in police headquatters in Ikeja,most of the buildings are in that state.

This is a big scam, :totally politically stage managed by northern elite to grab power.
Take it or leave it,kiss the truth

All hustle na hustle,ride on baby girl,as far as you no rip where you did not sow

ElsonMorali:
How I wish Buhari will address the nation, resigning on live TV and handing over to Osinbajo while asking for Nigerians' prayers for his health.

That would be a glorious exit indeed and he would be beloved by everybody as well as making history as the first president of Nigeria to willingly and voluntarily resign.

So that a yoruba man will take over abi and north will swallow it just like that abi,if Buhari bows out,Osinbajo must also bows out on glorious exit

I know the demolition of the market will cause massive setbacks to the traders but on the long run Ambode is on the right track



Ambode should fine ways to compensate the traders by giving cheaper stores at the new site



I know majority of traders are Igbo's, just know other tribes sell and buy in the market and not to see it as a way to punish Igbos



God bless Ambode


Eko Oni Baje

Unfortunately for you Igbos are not many in that market, so go and drink otapiapia

Chapterr5ive:
Are you mad? Why should i argue with a compressed head over my own history. I am not Ikweere that watch you guys distort their history, you come on this thread to tell me how I am not Yoruba and you want me to clap for you. Sod off and stop disturbing me with your stupidity.

History is there for you to visit and read about Aworis,you may not be an Awori man in the first place self, Aworis are originally not yorubas, Eguns are not yorubas because they have their own language that a yoruba person cannot understand.Awori is a yoruba subgroup based on influence

Chapterr5ive:
[s][/s]

You are just like your late father, no sense nor working brain. I am an Awori and proudly Yoruba, you can then go the way of your father if you hate to hear the truth. Na by force not to be Yoruba? You lots have no origin nor history and reason you are pained over us. We are Yoruba, leave us alone and go face your land grabbing scheme in SS. Shameless rogues.

your insult is too much,argue like a sensible person

Chapterr5ive:
Those animals have no shame. They love distorting history, reason they are now claiming lands of SS people. I now know why those Ikweere people hate them, i ignored this thread until one lunatic said Aworis are not Yoruba. Akiolu is Oba of Island, he is not even my king. My king is Oba Alamu Oloyede of Ikosi land. There are Ijebus also and they own Ikorodu and Epe, i even have distant cousin in far away Ota, Ogun state.

Mr man you sound frustrated here,ranting up and down....,
Is Igbos the Oba of Lagos that said that Lagos is not part of Yoruba land.
Aworis are originally not Yorubas but influenced by yoruba language,over the years and can be referred now as yoruba subgroup,Eguns on other hand dont like to partner with Yorubas and still maintain their language and always fight with yorubas over their land grabbing tendencies in lagos.

Lagos is not a yoruba land,Egun youths always deal with them anytime they want to do omonile things in Badagri and Epe.

bantudark:
stay away....!...keep to your 5 states in the east......we dont care what you think you are...just stay away...

you cry more than the Bereaved,you are not from SS

Mordern day paganism themed Christianity was made by the whiteman...the Romans. You can quibble with words all you want.

YOU sound very dumb,Islam was a product of manipulation of Christian Bible by the Roman priest,who brain washed prophet mohammed and gave him adulterated version of Bible and name it Koran.Read your history man.

ezenaija:
The belief out there is that the Igbos are dumb in politics..easy to use and when being used, the boast about being the one in charge. The last election proved this hypothesis correct because the South South seem to have moved on leaving the short end of the political stick to Ndigbo after using them in the Jonathan election.

"Ndi ofeke anaghi ama mgbe ekere nku ukwa"

you sound dumb,trust is true test of friendship,not betrayal,if not for Igbo support for Jonathan,mama peace would have been in prison today including GEJ

TooNoisy:
Igbos need to understand that the Yorubas have been and will be in the forefront of the actualisation of any dreams the Igbos may have.

I am glad that the comrade acknowledged that Fayose did what no other Igbo Governor would do. I am not a fan of Fayose, but the man has shown more courage than any other Igbo Governor. PDP today is supposed to be a SE/SS party. Yet today, the two most vocal members of the opposition are Wike and Fayose. No SE governor has been as vocal as these two. The SE governors are all busy trying to decamp to APC. Most of them have been rejected by the same APC they abuse daily. When will the Igbos truly stand on their own. Soludo and Chidoka recently came out to support Nnamdi Kanu for political reasons and we can see through that.

2010, when Yar'adua's kitchen cabinet was treating Jonathan like a puppy, it was the Yoruba Save the Nation Group, led by Wole Soyinka and Tunde Bakare that went to Aso Rock and demanded that Jonathan be made president. The South South fought their war and people like Wole Soyinka and Tunde Bakare supported them. When will the Igbos truly agitate for anything. The sad truth is that the Igbo can never play opposition politics. Their leaders are too greedy for that and the followers are too stupid to form a true opposition.

Now Nnamdi Kanu is agitating for Biafra and the first two names to be mentioned are Fayose and Fani-Kayode? Igbo ronu o. Igbo reflect on your agenda.

Keep quiet,[/b]what have yoruba fought for in Nigeria except backing people and can back out at any time,when will they lead and others to back them [b] ,Igbos are more courageous
The real freedom are fought by masses not by the elite which do so for political and popularity purposes,Biafran youths are the most courageous,[/b]Yoruba want restructuring[b],how many time have their masses and elite come out to fight for it using demonstrations and strong verbal attactks to achieve as IPOB is doing for Biafra restoration.

poshestmina:
Very true .I think they don't want anybody coming over to be a burden to them especially friends and not too close relatives .Btw i'm in Nigeria .

NO,many are telling the truth,life is more difficult abroad if you come with visiting visa and refuse to go back,they are trying to avoid the hardship the person will pass through by advising the person not to come

lonelydora:
This is marginalization. Every time Imo and Abia states are excluded from any form of grant or scholarship of NDDC. Why then call them Niger Delta states? We also say Northerners are our problem but we are the problem ourselves. God dey shaa.

Who told you that Imo and Abia is excluded,did you see any list of eligible states in the advert

Buhari must die,[/b]he have shaded alot of innocent blood[b] ,he will surely die because karma is real,his sickness will continue to multiply on daily basis,[/b]a wicked soul shall never know peace[b]

Nigeria need to be restructured or divided

ChetaNwaeze:
na true. As an Igbo man i fit confirm say na imo girls toto sweet pass, but generally, our Igbo girls toto been dey always smell like fufu wen don spoil

And mods are allowing this yoruba boys to derail every thread with fowl messages because they are insulting the Igbos. smh

SirShymexx:
In as much as disrespecting the man's crown is uncalled for...do some of you know the history of Lagos, the crown, and the people from Lagos? How can you even claim the place is "no man's land", yet be oblivious to the history of the place? I blame the Nigerian educational system that keeps churning out functional illiterates like you and your ilk.

In case you don't know: the Oba of Lagos isn't a proper high ranking traditional Yoruba king. He's more of a political king that grew in status, due to Nigeria and how relevant Lagos is, in the country. However, that doesn't negate the irrelevance of the crown amongst Yorubas. Even within Lagos - he's not the supreme king (he's more of Duke of his small domain). Evidently, no Lagosian who understands Yoruba history is going to DEFEND an inconsequential king who's brazen enough to be caught up in the Nigerian created hype, to disrespect his superior. And NO, Lagosians aren't migrants - they just have functional brain cells (unlike you) and they understand Yoruba history/culture/tradition.

The Oba of Eko is alone by himself in a sunken place. He needs to apologise and stay humble.

Everybody in Lagos is a migrant,the original inhabitants of lagos are Eguns that migrated from Benin repulic.The white men sand fill most part of lagos and develop it.Aworis migrated later and settled, Ijaws also settled at watersides in lagos. The Binis later colonize lagos and gave the name Eko and hand it over to british.

Scatterscatter:
Don't get it twisted. Yorubas are logical and not blindly judgemental. We praised the king cos he has the right to protect his territory from being hijacked by loud chest beating land grabbers. And now he is being chastised for disrespecting authority and hierarchy. We praise you when you do well and chastise u when you are wrong.

I am a proud YORUBA

It shows that you people have a dead conscience as human being,so if genocide is happening elsewhere that you deem to be your enemies,you wont raise an eyelid,no wonder mostly yorubas praise Brutai for massacre of shiites in kaduna and the killings of Ipobs youths.

What is the title of Oba Eko oooooo? I need answer now pls

Make una park one side abeg,now you dont know the title of oba Eko ooo,before he is untouchable god,double standard people

Afam4eva:
Our Yoruba brothers can be one funny bunch of people. The same people that when this same Oba made the lagoon statement, because of their bias and hate for the Igbo people, even people who did not support the Oba's uterance told us not to abuse him because he is a traditional ruler. fast forward to day, he's now the worst thing after satan because he dared to insult the Ooni of Ife. This just re-enforces the popular saying that "Injustice anywhere is Injustice everywhere". What goes around comes around.

[/b]They are double faced and very tribalistic in nature[b],they are now insulting the oba of lagos that is above insult before.
