His story is definitely not straight but just last week i had to unlock my brother in-laws iPad for the second time.
His 9yrs old daughter always steal his passcode from under him and so he quickly changes the passcode when he realizes but gets to forget the passcode he put under duress Then he would call me for rescue.
The first time is happened the iPad was brand new but the second time I had already setup icloud account for him, I was amazed when I was prompted for icloud unlock activation after installing and unlock the passcode, its been quite a while I called it quit with idevices, I enjoy my freedom too much to be policed like a thief on my devices.
I called him to rally every cell in that 50yrs old Brain of his to remember his icloud account password, or get ready to take back the iPad to America where he bought it on his next trip. On seeing his email setup as the icloud account, he quickly remembered.
It could happen to anyone sha though this guys story is of course.
There will always be a way, but you should know that the icloud account is forever tied to that phone GPS, so if it's stolen owner can easily located where you are if he logs In to the account from any computer.
cheers

Your head is there baba.

Shey women enjoy deluding themselves with gender equality so I will let them answer this one.
But this ish here is gender reality.

CHM11:
Your paragraphs totally contradict each other. One moment you are tribalistic, the other moment you are saying we are all human beings. I am not yoruba, I'm from Delta and based in Lagos. You want to know what pained the Oba?

Igbos said they will one day produce the governor of Lagos, they even wanted to run for vice in 2015.
They called Lagos a 'no man's land' that yorubas are claiming it.
They said Lagos is nothing but a colonial settlement.

Sincerely in your God mind, answer this : Will the people in South east Nigeria take this in their state from any other tribe? Even anambra self won't take it from other igbos.

And who told you the igbos are the most hardworking? What does hardworking mean to you?
Don't you think it means something else to me?
You might prefer to carry stones and break rocks with a sledge and call it hard work while I prefer to sit down for hours doing research and creating a cure for Ebola, that could be hardwork to me.

Lagos belongs to the Yorubas first before another Nigerian. If foreigners from Cotonou and Togo come to attack people in Lagos, the Yorubas will get up first to defend their home. When they can't subdue the intruders then Nigerians will join to help them.

Igbos should just learn to be careful with their utterances as regards Lagos. What you will not allow in your own home, do not do it in another persons home.

Lagos became the capital of Nigeria, because it is Lagos, Yoruba Land and it has been a trade centre even before the british took over. I think calabar used to be a capital too, so why is calabar not like Lagos?...

Respect your host and do not cause problems with your utterances.

I repeat i will never support any igbo contesting for any political office in Lagos or outside igboland because of the reality of tribalism that bedevils our country.
But i wish to disagree with you when you say the utterances of the igbos

The no man's land statement was made by Ex governor Orji uzor Kalu in response to the BRF deportation saga so it was a response to an attack.
Again the colonial statement was just made this week in response of the Oba's attack.
Unless you justify telling every non-indigene in Lagos to become an unlooker in the face of such attacks which could breed more attacks if not for the response of the people concerned, then i would humbly disagree with some of the points you have raised.

Andalus:
Your f.oolishness is astounding! Is Lagos state the only state that was once Nigeria's capital. I have been trying to keep my cool on this whole issue but you errorticsatalina wouldn't stop in your usual emotional outburst at any issue concerning Yoruba. And for you have decided not to respect the people and culture that have/is fending for you and your scavenging generation, may the land turn against you and your disrespectful lots until it rids itself of you scavengers.

Brother Abeg help me understand what actually constitutes this phrase " DISRESPECTING THE LAND".
For the sake of learning. I keep hearing it from a lot of people on here but no one has cared to give me an example.

Please can anyone explain to us this phrase I have come to see everyday of Nairaland.
"DISRESPECT OUR LAND".

Do the igbos steal your deity?
Did they desecrate your evil forest?
Are they trying to become Obas and Kings?
Are they steal your women and defiling your children?

What is the disrespect our land?
Please if you can not defend it then stop looking for a reason to tribally profile ur fellow hard working law abiding citizen.

kastonkastrol:
Well said.... You just can't come to our land and dictate for us whereas we never go to your land to dictate to you. The igbo tribe are taking our civility for cowardice, nobody is stopping the igbo folks from voting for whoever they want, but what we will not accept is you strangers telling us trash in our lands and insulting the sacred throne of my forefathers.

Again, I applaud this group once again

Brother what point have you made now?
Everyone was quietly going about there business, the candidates were courting votes from everyobe who had pvc untill his highness decided for a certain people who to vote or face calamity.
You are being contradictory by applauding the constitutional right of every Nigerian to vote, whilst supporting that a certain people forcefully comply to your will.

I often hear this insulting of our land!!, and I ask again how? how can people who earn honest an living and pay there taxes be insulting the land. Please can you put up instances to support this calm or is it just another excuse to profile and hate a follow citizen for nothing?

Eziachi:
When Fashola government deported Igbos and some others for whatever reason given. I personally kicked against it because never in my over 40 years of living in Britain have I heard any English county deporting a British national because he is Scottish, Welch or northern Irish.
I cannot either remembering any American deported from New York because he is an unemployed miscreat or a criminal from Alabama.
I was egging Jonathan on to come out in force to defend her citizens but he had 2015 in mind by playing the ostrich through the saga just like OBJ with the Sharia.

I reasoned that if they brought Ndigbo back into Nigeria after millions of blood was shed through the civil war, that every Onye-igbo should be able to live wherever they choose without being labelled a non indigenous person in their supposed country and that goes for any other person in Nigeria irrespective of their tribal lineage.

There is no doubt, that with a huge Igbo population in Lagos, that they as a group is an asset to any party or candidate in Lagos if well harnessed. I reasoned that Ndigbo in Lagos could be a bride being chased by two suitors if they manage themselves well.

When some were making noise endorsing Jonathan with chest beating, I warned against that because I believed that, they could have courted both sides and whoever win, they will still be in the driving seat.
But when you lay all you eggs into one basket, you are playing a risky and a dangerous game.
Who does not know that other southern groups voted for PDP in presidential poll , but no one is talking about them because they played it cool and silently?

Who does not know that most Yoruba traditional rulers are non party carrying members of either PDP or APC? The likes of Sijuade is PDP, Awujale leans towards APC and overall, Oba Akiolu is APC without having to disguise it.
So when Ndigbo voted Jonathan, the likes Akiolu must have been silently peeved but when some Igbo individuals started the noise again with Agbaje, when the likes of Akiolu is rooting for Ambode, I knew that it's bound to get ugly and that has resulted in his childish ranting recently.

So it seems that Ndigbo don't seem to learn how to play Nigeria politics again. Why start a fight that is not necessarily important, not yours and a fight you are unlikely to win?.
By openly pitching tent with Agbaje, you don't expect the other side to be happy, knowing the nature of Nigeria personal interest politics.
What does Agbaje represent for Ndigbo in the past that we have decided, not only fight his fight but engaged their traditional institution in an open war of words? I don't get it!
Agbaje and Ambode's fight is like that fight between a husband and wife and whoever tried to meddle will get hurt and blamed after the couple's make up sex.

Ndigbo could have easily played both sides effectively and still come out tops. Does Agbaje likes Igbo more than Ambode? No!
Is his victory assured? Not in the least.
If he loses ( with a 50% chance) after openly campaigning against his opponent, then what?

Any party or candidate in Lagos who felt that Igbos are not an electoral asset in Lagos is only kidding himself. But if you are an asset, why turn it into a liability through your own actions or inaction?
In New York or Florida politics, the Jews plays this role to their benefit without openly supporting anyone in both local and national politics. Ndigbo can do the same in Lagos, Nasarawa, Rivers or Kogi.
Just like a beautiful well endowed woman, if she cannot manage effectively, her God's given assets, it may turns out to become her achilles that will turn into a liability.
Agbaje, Bode George who is still not yet in exile or Andy Ubah cares less against Ndigbo more than bias Oba,Akiolu but will try a create enmity between ordinary Igbos and Yoruba for political expediency. Only a fool will dance to their tune.

So you are saying that the igbos should split there votes and quit voting in unity?
Is that not we have been accused to doing for a while now?
How does few igbo figures supporting Agbaje translate to the entire igbo people.
How then did igbo people gather to meet his highness who is Pro APC only to be insulted.

sCun:
Why don't you press the reset button and get it done? Why must Igbos continue to be at the butt of this because we refuse to thik home as encouraged by unrealistic people like you?

Nwanne umuigbo amacha gi ihe.
this nonsense has been going on for long.
I personally blame the igbo leaders.

I don't know about travelling for elections but igbos need to arise and achieve the full potential of igboland.

Every governor should make it a priority to attract investors and industries to igboland.
it is disheartening that a high percentage of igbo graduates zoom out of the land after graduation.

Igbos remain an endangered tribe in this sham of a country. It beats me why they seem ignorant of this obvious fact.

I truly and sincerely remain confused.
First I think the words of the Oba was blown out of proportion by media.
I have repeatedly condemned any igbo man for seeking any political office in the SW.
But what I cannot not relate with is why I citizen of a country should be told whom or where to vote forcefully?
If a candidate spoke to your issues why will you not vote him.
Most of my yoruba friends are voting agbaje while some of my igbo friends are voting Ambode. Both are bore out of what they stand to gain from both administration nothing more nothing less.
How this became an igbo and yoruba thing if really silly. Now it has preyed into the hands of the media who will escalate the mess to a whole new height.

GlorifiedTunde:
Oba Akiolu spoke out of line for a king. A noble mind should address issues with wisdom. However, one can sense his desperation in these sensitive times, and no king of any kingdom (even the Igbo kings) wouldn't have done likewise or even worse.

Yorubas have an adage that says awolumate o mowon ara re meaning a stranger who doesn't enter into trouble in a strange land, knows and respects his bounds. This is why you'll never hear of yorubas defiance in another land.

I am if the opinion that the Igbo should thread very carefully, no matter what you say, Lagos is the Yoruba's - and if things get too heated up we will know who owns the land. Yoruba have been tagged the most cowardly in Nigeria, this isn't true when war finally starts. You can ask the hausas in sagamu what happened in 1999.

Even jimi agbaje needs to watch it dearly not to be exiled.

YOU CAN NEVER WIN THE WAR WITH ANOTHER MAN ON HIS OWN LAND

Genius100:
The ridicule is enough.. Ndigbo needs to stop subjecting itself to ridicule

My brother you have to understand what democracy entails.
When you speak to people's issues they are bound to give you there vote and that is democracy.
That was exactly how the presidential election was won.

For E.g the traders at ladipo market have had uncountless problems with the outgoing administration so it is natural to reject there continuity.
And then along comes a man who plays into your issues, explains it to you like his suffers the same with you. Naturally you are prone to lean towards him.

Meanwhile I have many igbo people in property business who pray everyday that Ambode is elected so as retain there already mapped out lands by the outgoing administration.
It is the height of irresponsibility to tell anyone to vote an administration he believes he stands to gain nothing from. It's selfish but that is democracy anywhere in the world.

LORDCYBORG:
I'm an Igbo guy but somehow this ur statement is a very sensible and meaningful one, the Oba shouldnt have threatened anyone. An average Igbo man has a lot of wisdom to know you dont make trouble with your hosts in thier land. History will tell you that over and over again.

Because of the reality of ethnic division, i never support any igbo candidacy in any post at all. Even that Joe Igbokwe APC spokes man.

What I totally disagree with is telling a full grown man whom to vote.
If candidate realize the potential of courting your vote and appeals to you to vote for him, that exactly is democracy.

I really don't understand the blame game and threats

I

Aarenaija:
Before my Ibo brothers begin to abuse the Oba of Lagos, I want them to answer these question:

Can any Yoruba man go to Anambra,Enugu, Abia, IMO or Ebonyi to contest for elections?

Or, can anyone from Yoruba land go to these states to claim ownership of Land or tell an Ibo man that his land is a no mans Land?

the fact that the South west accommodates everyone should not be taken for weakness.

There should be some Cheacks and balances in all you do. You don't come to a mans house and tell him how to run his home.

If you must vote for a candidate,
courtesy demands that you align yourself to the will of the people that is hosting you.

OK JiMi is an igbo man now abi?
And all those people who voted PDP in all SW states are bastards abi??

Guy they have more yorubas supporting JiMi agbaje take it or leave it.
My neighbor is a living witness.
If I may ask who made Ambode the yoruba concensus candidate.
Or are there no obas in Lagos who support Jimi Agbaje?

It is irresponsible to threaten a Nigerian for carrying out his civic duties. It then becomes shameless that after calming sophistication and love for country. Some people here have exhibited this height and level of hypocrisy.

egift:
"When in Rome, you do like the Romans" - EGIFT to Fellow Umu Igbo

Sai Ambode.

I am beginning to ask questions if Jimi Agbaje is an Igbo man.
In democracy people vote who ever they believe spoke to there issues.
If Jimi did a better job convincing people why the threats and rants.
Is he less of a yoruba man?
Is igbo the only tribe in Lagos?
Nigerians have awaken to the choice of voting candidates irrespective of political party. I have a million Yorubas who are fed up with the present administration and it's power brokers.
Those people voted APC at federal level and have decided on PDP in Lagos state.

I really don't understand why the IGBOs are taking the blame for the failures of an outgoing administration.
This is a disappointment coming from a man leaning towards a political party who spent the past 4 yrs accusing the outgoing president of tribal and religious divides.

I think you need to see a doc.. U sound depressed.. NO OFFENCE INTENDED... SHALLOM..

I don like insults and i dnt insult

Ignoring the deluded son of bewolf.
The idiat has already told someone that Buhari built 3 refineries, obviously you don't want to engaged yourself with this discombobulated sad excuse for a human being.

halix239:
all this foollish gejites will not move on, even the clueless incompetent weakling has moved on n u all re still ranting, im 100 percent sure buhari ll move this nation forward, God punish u pple for wanting to take this wonderful nation backward, we refuse to go back to yesterday, take that or kiss hot iron, sore losers.

This sheep I know your brain has been mortgaged to your Shepard thus you are subject to think with vacuum.
What is my business with GEJ. Every government has it shortcomings and challenges, APC choose to exploit these challenges to there advantage it was never a mission of patriotism.

barcanista:
Propaganda is their greatest weapon. They rode to power on falsehood, let us see whether their falsehood can yield dividends of democracy.

Severe blackmail and bullying which earned them the sympathy of the public who needed a quick fix.
The Tension in Nigeria polity was single handedly created by APC.
everything PDP did was in response to what they started.

My score card has started recording, in fact I have recorded my first hopeless phrase. " I WILL STABILIZE THE ECONOMY WITH MONEY SAVED FROM CORRUPTION" - MUHAMMADU BUHARI PRESIDENT- ELECT ARPIL 2015.

Too early for the criticism.
After watching this current administration blackmailed and bullied out of office.

I have created a journal that will serve as a score card for the next 4 yrs.
Lord willing we shall have life and this administration shall run on its records and held accountable for its promises 100%.

NewNigeriaMind:
Whatever Yoruba needs in this country we take it....

No time for crying like a baby and calling people names for the very things you are guilty of.

Jonathan is a failed president, the south south and east voted him base on tribe, how dare you come around to accuse the north of returning the favour. On the same forum we warned you tribal war lords that Jonathan should act decisively with book haram, you all said its north killing north. we told you then the job of the president is to protect all Nigerians to the last almajiri in the north, you said we are fools. how can you expect those same people to vote Jonathan, that is a foolish expectation.

you even said the east should be told to practice tribal politics, please don't make me laugh. as the east ever practice any type of politics apart from tribal politics.

The east is no better than the north in tribal politics, tribalism runs in all of you.

shallom

The SE has voted people from different regions since 1999.
So which tribal politics are you talking about.
They even voted against there beloveth ojukwu

Segeggs:
after an 8yr northern rule, you think the political parties will now field another northerner for 2023? That slot best soothes the yorubas/middle belt, with yoruba as president and MB as VP. That slot would have been the Ibos, if not that they ruined it all.

You lifted my hopes only to disappoint me again. You wrote an epistle to stop the spread of hate which i wholeheartedly embrace because I believe the SW voted on individual perception as reflected in the margins but you riddled your article with the same insults and hate you were aiming to stop.
It beats me how the opinion of a few is used to indict a whole tribe on father's, mothers, and sons.
This bitterness flying around has gone too far
Well the joke is on me because your moniker have always been associated with insults.

Eziachi:
I warned, screamed, cajoled and shouted myself to sleep and resignation. I hate to say it that I told you so. I told that Buhari 2015 can beat Jonathan. Your response was always GEJ till something.
I warned about putting your eggs into one basket.
I warned against playing emotional politics over what is not yours.
I warned against taking pain killers for another man's headache.
You rejected the potentials of a possible Christopher Ngige or Uche Onyeaguocha as Senate Presidents for Jonathan's failed presidential bid. I do hope it works out well.
Bye for now. Eziachi

Sir, I will accord you that respect while I also inquire of you the right part to this my observation.
The IGBOs have voted for other regions of the country since 1999, even against there own sons but they are still termed tribal in politics? While the north who has unapologetically voted there sons see absorbed of this obvious show.

Igbos have been accused of internal division as there greatest political challenge but today they have spoken with one voice in support of a candidate who got a almost 40% of SW and NC votes but they are now termed foolish.

So in your wealth of experience please, tell me which one is it

Brush up own candidate, our son an give him our vote.
Vote for a candidate of our choosing irrespective of ethnic/religious leaning like we just did in GEJ.

Or speak in disunity at the ballot so we can stay relevant in whatever government that emerges like you suggested.

A more disturbing discovering is the nonchalance of the igbo nation at the polls.
A trend that should immediately be arrested if we ever wish to remain relevant.


PDP should work on strengthening there hold on SE/SS, settle there issues in the North central and strengthen their grip.
With SE/SS/NC as a strong hold I believe it will make for a balance in the in coming administration.

I thought ethnic politics was alien to APC, how come this fool is calling a tribe to vote for him. So not voting APC means that you have issues with yoruba?
Are other party candidates not yorubas as well?
People be sowing discord in the name convincing electrorates.

QuotaSystem:
The oil is our commonwealth and it belongs to everybody. Until you show me the spot you dug and buried the oil, you can cry me a river.

It's funny you should say this when a certain part of the country keeps referring to other people as unwanted guess in there own country while exercising there constitutional right.
The country is bedeviled by a lot rubbish running deep that disintegration seems inevitable.

clevvermind:
Tribalism is what is killing Nigeria. I'm an igbo, i'm yoruba, i'm hausa, i'm ijaw, i'm this, i'm that. When are we going to see ourselves as Nigerians, as one people? When are we going to put tribal or ethnic sentiment aside and move on as one people? When are we going to love ourselves? When will the tribal hatred ends? Why are we so intolerant and unacommodating? Please let's move on as one. We are brothers and sisters. Let's stand together, let's fight together, and let's live together as one people. In unity we stand.

Until state of origin gives way for place of birth, the downward spiral of tribalism shall continue until the nation nigeria cease to exist.

No be today na, there has been a thread on this topic as far back as 2011.
Confirm Occultic symbols no doubt. The world gets scarier by the day.

Like i have always said before, GEJ still enjoys huge support from the south west.
