We have a saying: "die die ni imu elede wo ogba".
Tell a Yoruba man to translate that for you..
Nothing to translate sir, the worst to happen is to tell them to leave Lagos and that settles it. They can still stay in their Anambra and still be shouting "LAGOS IS NO MAN'S LAND", hope you won't go and bomb them then?

Yoruba too dey enter whining, if anyone call Lagos no man's land you too should call Anambra a no man's land nah.
I haven't seen an igboman contesting for Oba in any Yoruba land so what's the headache all about? With time I'm sure Igbos will stop voting in any of Yoruba states too so as for peace to reign.

They are just pawns in our politicians hand, Nigeria is not in any war, we are only fighting political and business war.

This man should stop uttering nonsense all the time.

How can you be speaking ill of a country you are aspiring to govern one day. Try and be sensitive for once

It's time to change all the mad men advisers around you and face the reality
Obi as an individual is speaking ill of Nigeria, you too as an individual can speak prosperity into the country... Let the outsiders be the judge. You cannot pretend that everything is right when people can clearly see for themselves that everything is all shades of wrong. Face the Americans and leave Obi alone

do you even know the meaning of data? cos you gave fake numbers (data) in your previous post to support your reasoning....btw, @the bolded,they thought they were smart, they sent an army of voters down to the SW ,and left people at home to beat up anyone who dare vote anyone else besides their agenda, the greatest part of the whole thing is, the uninformed ones among the Yorubas that were deceived and used by you guys are wiser now.
Do you know the meaning of "Hypothetical or Abstract"? I never gave any data, I only mentioned abstract examples.

I wish NL has the VN features so I could explain to you properly cos it seems you ain't getting my explanation here.

so I should believe your own data and not the verifiable one....joker😹
I haven't given any data, I only asked you to apply a common sense in reasoning.
You claim igbos migrated from SE just to come and vote in lagos presidential elections, and I put it to you that same igbos could as well move back to the SE just for the same election which automatically means they're would be more votes in the SE which would cancel out that of Lagos.

you mean inec-rec, In charge of pvc collection with verifiable records and data's is splashing narratives?....for what purpose?, please humor me...keep living in denial😂
Easterners could as well travel to east so as to vote and that will make them have more numbers of voted from the SE.

Must Lagos election be the only election to win? You just have to use your head a times, we have election in 36 states including the FCT but you people suddenly feel Lagos state is the only place where election matters. If igbos produce 100,000 votes in SE while they produce 500,000 votes in Lagos, what stop them from all going back to the SE so that they can simply produce 600,000 votes?

according to a report on the front page just yesterday or so,
thousands of Easterners transfered there pvc ,migrated ,some re-registered in Lagos and other major part of the SW to vote.... isn't that crazy to u?😹
Did they also transfer and reregister in 2015?, I remember your Oba threatening to throw everyone who wouldn't vote for Yoruba prefer candidate(Buhari APC) into lagoon.

I can't imagine anyone leaving there business in the east just to come and vote in the west. You all can keep splashing the narratives that suits you though.

Nigeria won it for the ten times. Leicester city owner back in 2016, gave each player and staff Lamborghini for winning the premier league. Those cars are far more than the amount paid to the owner by FA for winning the premier league then. It is called appreciation. You bitter people should relax cos most of us knows the reason why you people are not happy. Some of you were boasting that the igbo girls gave nigeria the cup even when Ajibade was named the tournament best player. Why are you people don't want your tribe girls to be 1m dollars rich.
Una don start again with this igbo and Yoruba narratives, if you all can't stay together as one people then why don't we all just break up in peace.

Rubbish talk and which borrowing are you talking about?
Besides,All Over The World 🌎, Serious Government Economic Policies cannot Accommodate New Ways of Doing things,New Infrastructures Coming to the Country for,
- American govt still borrowing Money 💰,to execute Projects,
- European Countries Still Borrowing to Execute Projects.
•Can you analyse here:-
- which Money this 2- yrs Old Tinubu- Govt borrow Money and are not using it,for the Project?
•You guys are just Noise Makers on the Social Media!
Stop your Hate and Bitterness - for it will hunt very soon!
Now you mentioned America and Europe... How many European or American politicians or citizens have come down to Nigeria for medicals? How many of their leaders have died in our Nigeria hospitals?

See I am not against anybody's progress, I am more of the opinion that instead of few to have things in excess I would rather prefer that majority has that same thing that matters to them the most. My orientation is that of UBUNTU, the government can spend our money anyhow they want to but that won't still stop me from telling the fact.
$100,000 is too much for an incentive in our current economic situation, the girls in question won 1million dollars as the prize money for the tournament so where exactly would that leave us?

Absolute good for nothing ingrates were the ones critical about the presidential rewards to the falcons.
But tell the government not to go on a borrowing spree tomorrow please, you all are making it look like people don't appreciate success. The girls had already won 1million dollars when they lifted that trophy and I wonder why any reasonable government should deem it fit to splash billions on them again in such an economy as ours. People are barely surviving in this country but we would rather spend money on people that are already in money.

erad:
The whole world wasn't feeding off of America, America chose to control the world and that's part of the price they paid.

If America had let countries be without always trying to influence them, they wouldn't have needed to bribe their way into those countries with the so called aids and grants. They impoverished the countries so their aids will have more significance and lead to dependence on them for more aids.
Now that they are about stopping the "bribe", I hope African countries will learn how to be really independent.

Very wrong, you do have to attend every single PTA meeting, you need to spend time bonding with your children.

Being a father is more than paying for school fees and upkeep of the child. Any Tom, Dick and Harry can do that.

It starts with coming home tired after your day at work but finding time to change the baby's nappy at least once.

It carries on to knowing your child's friends and teachers names and being there to support them emotionally during their teenage years despite whatever it is you are facing in your own life as a man.

Delegate very little if at all any, the child is as much yours as anyone else's.
Then it wouldn't be a bad idea to rather teach the child by yourself instead of registering him or her in a school, you'll create more bonding when you stop hustling and stay focus on raising your children.

When you send a child to school that automatically means you've delegated the education to the teachers.
I am also a responsible father, when I talked about delegating I'm not asking you to make financial obligations your only form of delegation.

If you have three children in different institutions at different locations and they all have something to do almost on the same day then I'm sure you'll split yourself into three so as to attend those programs just because you want to bond properly with your children.

You cannot delegate fatherhood bro.
Who's talking about delegating fatherhood? I only replied your comment due to how exhausted you sounded right in the comment. I only asked you delegate some activities regarding your kids to a trusted hand, you don't have to attend a PTA meeting, take your children out on their days, stay home with them so as to do your obligations as a father and so much more. Delegating responsibilities where necessary doesn't make you a bad father, If you feel you can chest it all all by yourself alone then that's cool too.

But my sister, wealth alone in not enough to raise kids as I find myself emotionally unavailable lots of time for all of them. My last want to swim everyday, my first son wants to play basketball, daughter has to attend dancing classes. At the end it's like you never get to have a life of your own. Even if you have all the money, you are still completely drained.
Once, I was at a PTA meeting till 10.30pm for one child.
Jethro " Moses father in-law" advised Moses to delegate responsibilities and share the responsibility of leading the Israelites accordingly, been there for your kids doesn't mean you'll always be there for all of them at all the time. You should understand the concept of delegating some aspects into some trusted hands if you don't want to break down all exhausted.

They are exercising their right as a bonafide citizens of the Great Nigeria.

They are not asking Imo state government to stop teaching Ibo in their schools.

They are not calling Imo state no mans land.

They are not installing Oni-Imo of Imo kingdom.
So igbos have been installing Oni-Lagos of Lagos Kingdom? We really need to excel all the igbos then
PoliticsRe: The Igbos And Their True Identity. by phorget(m): 10:57pm On Jul 27, 2025
This writer is really on drugs again, he dare went back as far as 1960 to tell us what Ahmadu Bello said about the Igbos, the same Igbos that fought war just to break out of Nigeria but the same people complaining about them won't still allow them to go.

The op out of his myopic reasoning still claimed that Igbos want to vote their own son as the president but Igbos voted for Obasanjo, voted for Yaradua, voted for Jonathan and I wonder if all these names I mentioned are all igbos too.

Igbos are now disrespectful just because they won't align with your own idea of politicking, this also earn them a journey to the lagoon which a whole Oba threatened them with in prior to 2015 election.



That thing wey una dey find una go soon see am one day, you all should keep beating the drums of war. When it's time to dance we will all dance it together.

Hunt like a lone wolf, bleep the family bonds that never existed. The past is right behind you so all you need do is to look forward to those things before you.
The life becomes what you make of it, if you eventually own a family of your own then you'll derive all what you've always wished for.
