Lagos na no man's land naa... Do you think its a joke

Igbo states are just like ekiti, ondo and other Yoruba states far from Lagos. They accommodate same way.

Lagos and outskirts parts of ogun are similar and more accommodating. That’s my point.

I’ve stayed in the North in my early years and they were cool then better than or same as some yourba states.

Like which Northern state?

Pharaoh4rin:
I disagree with tears in my left ear.
The Yorubas are unarguably the most accommodating. Ibos are the least.

Bauchi state is the worst most accommodating state in Africa.

Are you Yoruba?

PeaceJoyLove:
The comments so far are so far, but everyone is saying the truth.

Lagos belongs to all. True.

Lagos accommodate all. True

Lagos! Lagos!! Lagos!!!

One even said Lavos doesnt belong to yoruba...

Anyway, if you check my previous posts, there is a place I wrote that SW is the most powerful region..why? It is the bridge of unity in Nigeria.


The day SW said Yes to state policing, they created Amotekun. And that's it. Law makers are on the way to put it in our constitution.

SW is already saying we want regional supreme court. And this will be it. Boom!

Ibo should learn to team up with SS and SW to move forward.

North cannot he president if SW does not agree with them. Anyone SW agrees with always become the president of Nigeria. Go and check history. North defeated Chief Awolowo only after Akintola joined them.. North could not stop Abiola via poll, they had to cancel the election. Buhari failed 3 consecutive times doing it alone, the 4th time he partnered with SW, he got it. Jonathan rose on the yoruba/fulani platform to win. The day he turned his back on just the SW man (Obasanjo), he lost the north too. Unfortunately for him, Buhari partnered with SW. Boom Jonathan was kicked out.

The day SE humbles itself and make peace with SW, and stop the blaming games, the whole of south will flourish.

No one will chase ibos out of Lagos. The state belongs to everyone. But yorubas own it. Lagos is presently generating over 40 billion naira monthly. If you add VAT to it, OMG! That may shoot to 100 billion monthly.

But it's right for you yorubas to betray us from south south in 2015?




Yorubas aren't too important
just that northerners are using you to keep Nigeria one.

TooNoisy:
One thing that is very clear is that the Yoruba are the most accommodating tribe in Nigeria; no one can deny that. However, what have we got in return - hate and envy especially from the Igbos. The Hausa/Fulani are suspicious of the Youruba but they do not hate the Yoruba. The are also accommodating to the Yorubas.

The Edo/Isekiri/Urhoro are siblings to the Yorubas even though they have their own identity. The Efik/Ibibio are somewhat indifferent to the Yoruba but that is fine. The Igbos outright hate the Yoruba and it is time Yorubas become very conscious of this hatred.

Everyday they are castigating Tinubu, Fayemi and Osinbajo; and other potential Yoruba presidential candidates. The other day they were calling Yoruba women undesirable and dirty. All of them were hating on Peter Okoye for marrying a “dirty Yoruba woman” - a woman who is more educated and exposed than anyone in their generation. They insult the same Lagos where they live - why don't they just go back to Onitsha and Aba.

They insult anything Yoruba- from Anthony Joshua, Wizkid, Tiwa and everything Yoruba. These insults are not unnoticed. Yoruba will not forget and will surely retaliate!

Rubbish.
The igbos are the most accommodating
It's just that there's little federal infrastructure in the east.

The yorubas are tribal, hateful, wicked treacherous and full of envy

Brimstone77:
[s][/s] gibberish!!

You lots are hypocrites,it's cool when you insult igbos,but when Igbo respond by insulting you back you will start whining like over used pant..


You claimed igbos hates you yet Igbo never engaged you lot in any physical combat or confrontation any where since the history of Nigeria,igbos undoubtedly are the second largest tribe in Lagos yet we never had issues with you lots..

Your oba of Lagos threatened to throw igbos in the lagoon yet you didn't see the hate in that,adeyinka grandson threatened to burn down Igbo investment in South West yet you didn't see the hate in it...


Your people have been burning Igbo shops by proxy(you lots think we don't no) yet you are still accusing us of hating you..


You call us baby factory and drug dealers,but when we call you skull miners you start shouting hate..

You call our women yam legs but when we call your women dirty, stinking and ugly you start shouting hate...


You call our political leaders ( thou I don't care about those ones shaa) like Peter obi a fraudster but when we call tinubu bullion van crook or frog eye you start shouting hate..


For Wizkid and tiwa Savage they are my best supper stars so I don't no what you are saying on that...


Go to any Igbo related thread and see the way you yorubas are insulting igbos..

You don't dish out hate and insult and expect love and praise,it doesn't work like that..

My brother don't try to reason with such people because blinded with too envy and hatred.

I've come to understand that the only thing that unify them is when they castigate and degrade an igboman and seeks to limit his progress out of envy.

They see and monitor igbos live in any where
they deem fit, forgetting that no tribe or groups can achieve and do that without being extremely careful and in peace with the indigenous people. If igbos are not peaceful and hard-working how do you think they can coexist with the host.

If you think they the igbos are not worthy of praise and commendation, i challenge you to travel far into another hostile land and territory and do business, work and obey there laws, buy property and land at any given price without making any form of trouble and see how easy it is. The igbos in Lagos and South West as a whole have not had any form confrontation with their host considering the population and you think they're not peaceful?

Instead of praising them for their courage and wizardry what they get in return is extreme envy and hatred.

Aksnoopy:
Werey! You are so bitter because your step siblings sold your grandpa house to an Igbo man.
Better get a life, if you try nonsense your people go hear am for Lagos. Guns dey everywhere now.

Na so una dey do.. run mouth small, go behind to beg the powers that be and snap pictures.
Shey you never see war before ba? continue bragging with guns.

drlateef:
Who burnt down TVC? Who burnt down the buses in Lagos? Do you think we don’t know?

go get the CCTV camera and then you will find out that you agbero brothers did...

theTranslator:
do you know what siblings mean at all?

besides you can't speak for three groups

Itsekiri are our brothers undebatably

Attach by force

UnabashedIPOB:
The Igbos outright hate the Yoruba and it is time Yorubas become very conscious of this hatred.

Truth be told the hatred is a two way street! Well, let me take it back, I would not call it hatred but rather an unhealthy rivalry. This rivalry stems from the British Colonial era policy of divide and rule which, they imbibed into the consciousness of the citizens to bring suspicion and mistrust so that they can continue to loot the country. But one thing that both tribes, Igbo and Yoruba, failed to appreciate is that there are more that bind us together than separate us. Both tribes pretty much share similar values as far as education, hard-work, entrepreneurship, innovation, sense of community, personal responsibility, self reliance and empowerment are concerned. So, only those that do not understand the dynamic at play would call it hatred. As Igbos, I am certain there are aspects of us that other tribes resent and so are the Yorubas as well. There are aspects of them that other tribes detest. The major problem is that we see our differences as things to use to drive a wedge between us and demonize each other. It should not be and that's the more reason we want the disintegration of the damned country!

Unhealthy rivalry indeed!

Divide Yorubas along religious lines and call one part Afonjas, albeit, using a Yoruba owned platform to galvanize that division (pains to drag NL along that line, but truth be told). And when it feels like idea is sold and bought, turn around to burn down their center of unity, Lagos, and ransack their Oba's house, and finally put the stamp of no man's land or waste land on them.

MrBrownJay1:
being yoruba isnt a prerequisite to hold office in Lagos, is it?!

Can you say the same about anambra state?

kaygreeno:
You don't engage in tribal war and what exactly are you doing now! Naturally the negative and hatred blood flows in almost all Igbo people blood! Why can't y'all just go back to your hut that you call biafra land" Your so called rising sun.

same Biafra you yorubas are opposing with your full chest??

You're still the same old woman that was talking about the use of harsh words anf people pointed out your hypocrisy...

You're part of the reasons Nigeria can never progress.. You and million others.. You mentioned some disgustingly corrupt and murderous politicians.. But your narrow mind is blinded by your affiliate to them through tribalism, so you're ready to kill yourself defending them against igbos.. Igbos have been crying to be let go.. If you want to make sense agitate for them to leave.. Your toutish nature isn't hard to hide.. Its evident, "youruber women are more educated than their generation"..

Las las you'd grow old and get sense.. You're just a pained old woman

Lala work on this mumu advert pls

I don't get u
R u speaking for the Yorubas
Or
U r suggesting
I don't understand

backbone503:
Are you Yoruba?

No

Sheggy13:
And igbos praise these other tribes I believe, right? Stop fooling yourself. Nairaland has taught me a lot about how most Igbos feel about Yorubas.. I never knew this because I related with most of them as brothers and friend being a born and bred Lagos Yoruba man until I encountered Nairaland.. Insults like Afonja, conehead and what not receive so many likes here from your likes and you expect love in return. You must be dreaming.

I really thank God for the internet my brother.

It has really revealed the dark hidden part of people's minds they won't be able to say to your face.

Calling Igbokwe a political gladiator ńa scam.

We don’t CCTV, we saw it live. We know those who did it. We know they are foreigners from the east of Niger.

Iamgrey5:
There was no Lagos when that oba was ruling.

He ruled over Eko which originally described a small part of Lagos island not Lagos state under the current arrangement.

And more fun fact, he ruled over Eko Aromire an Awori sub clan of Lagos which he met there.

There were vast areas of Lagos state in which he has no power over then and today

Ikorodu, Epe, ibeju, most parts of mainland which the Egbas and other Awori controlled, Badagry areas which the Egun and Awori controlled, the waters ways which ilaje controlled.

You're very shallow on Nigeria history benin controlled the entire lagos, tho her cultural influence didnt spread to all part unlike it did on some part.....

Benin were the first majour dellers on slaves in badagary.... Till benin influence left lagos completely in the late 17c


Am a scholar on benin history mind you

sinkhole:
Saude is not a Southerner
The people employed in Lagos have their roots entirely not from any affiliated Yorubaland.
When an Hausa person wants to deceive a Yoruba man then he embraces somebody from Kwara or Kogi claiming he is in love with Yoruba people! That is a scam

1. Is it only sauda he made mention of, or what are you saying, he gave 3 names, you proved that one lives in Kaduna, fine, what about the rest.
2. He only mentioned the ones he can remember, why not check others comments for southerners holding big government positions in Gombe and Kano, then compare it with your south eastern governor's. Or is it that hatred of northerners has eaten deep into your reasoning

keypad warrrior... Yorubas are the most tribalistic people i have come across...my best friends are igbos and i totally disagree with your online rant and hatred...get a life.

flokii:
Who told you noone can chase Igbos out of Lagos?

Who sold land to them or rent out houses and shops to them?

Who controls those market they sell their wares and who do they pay levies to?

This generation Yorubas are not in for nonsense with any outsider or land grabber o.. even Tinubu can't save them if Yorubas decide that enough is enough of their nonsense in Lagos.

Na just egg dem go throw into their shops and warehouses, gbogbo won ma di edun arinle ni. who dem be??

Yorubas can't do anything.



Highest una go make noise.

Pierocash:
You hardly can see a Southerner in the cabinet of Northern governors

Elrufai aide is yoruba

stanluiz:
It was Yoruba touts, Miscreants , thugs and hooligans that burnt it down.

That’s a lie. We know they come from the east. Some of them were captured, yes they spoke Yoruba but they claimed to be from IMO, Anambra etc. We have video evidence.

ThatFairGuy:
You need to read broad. Whoever told you that lied.

Make enquires yourself

You need to read broader bro, leave the west and come to the south and see were Oduduwa was trained

Lagos is a Yorubaland and inside Yorubaland, Its cosmopolitan status notwithstanding

Neither in the East yet they tell you Yorubas are the most tribalistic.

[quote author=MrBrownJay1 post=106817231]being yoruba isnt a prerequisite to hold office in Lagos, is it?![/quote
it should be but the good gesture and accommodating spirit of a yorubaman gave way for that
