Even without Lagos, you still have to remove another 3 million votes from the SW votes, as that belongs to Igbos residing in those Yoruba states.
Feel free to remove about a hundred thousand votes from the Igbo states as they belong to Yorubas.

Op, are you sure you're ok?? On what basis did you refuse to include Lagos as part of the SW? You Igbos are fond of this provocative act of excluding Lagos from the rest of the SW. You're the ONLY ethnicity in the whole of Nigeria that has a problem with Lagos as an indigenous Yoruba land. What exactly is the colour of you people's problem by the way? Are there no Yorubas in Lagos, that you would mischieviously choose to exclude them from the SW? This will still not stop you lot from being regarded as strangers in Lagos till eternity. What rubbish.

Stop being mischievous, anyone who knows Lagos very well knows it's a melting point of all ethnicities with Yorubas and Igbos as majority. Igbos travel a lot, they're into business and there is no visa stopping them from residing in Lagos. As a people that thrive in a competitive environment, don't you think they would survive in Lagos more than others?

Same bigots like you used to mock Igbos that "100 chisco buses are leaving East everyday for Lagos" or have they stopped grin grin

Lagos is a unique state in Nigeria considering it has always been Nigeria's capital for donkey years and has remained the economic capital.

Why are there so many Igbos in Abuja today? What attracted Igbos to Abuja, is it not the same thing that attracted them to Lagos?

Continue deceiving yourself!

You and your fellow deluded Igbos are the ones deluding yourselves. Una get mind sha but it's not your fault. How many of you bury your dead in Lagos? A state you merely came to hustle in. Where are your roots in Lagos for you to have the effrontery to strip it of its Yoruba heritage? Is there anywhere in Lagos where an Igbo can become an Oba like Yorubas have been doing for centuries? Name one single indigenous Igbo family compound in Lagos, just one. Name one single Lagos indigene of Igbo extraction (if such a person exists), just one if you fit. It's not you people's fault that you so arrogantly speak trash about the state. I blame the liberal nature of your Yoruba hosts. Wetin Una no fit accept in your region and states is what you do in Yorubaland. No be your fault at all at all.

Don't get unnecessarily worked up by piggiddioootts.

This is the first time a Yoruba man will be on the ballot since 2003.

Luuuunatics continue to confuse it with when it was an all non-Yoruba affair. kiss

In 1999 when it was Obasanjo vs Falae, Falae won Lagos by 81%

Nobody is doubting if Lagos is geographically located in yorubaland. The point here is the population is very cosmopolitan and it does not deliver block votes in presidential elections. Stop displaying your usual insecurities

You are right that SW states have the diversity because of the huge landmass and access to the sea so may actually have more of their indigenes outside their zone than SE indigenes have outside the monolithic 5 Igbo SE states.
However, pay attention to the INEC list as at August 1,2022, Lagos and Oyo are in the top 10 and both even ahead each of all the SE states while Anambra is the last in the top 10.

There is nothing like core or non core Yorubaland . Lagos is Yoruba state and super predominantly Yoruba. It shows that you do not know the SW and Lagos when you attempt to seperate Lagos. The largest LGA and with the highest voting strength in Lagos is a Local Govt called Alimosho LGA. It is not even part of Lagos central and the LGA is made up of outskirt towns and villages mostly the ancestral homes of the Egba and Awori people close to the Ogun state border. That is where most of the votes come from and you can ask your brother or sister living in Lagos.

Since 1999, Alimosho has always delivered the highest votes for APC and it still remains APC.
Even Oyo state is not the mate of any SE states by population and registered voters but the most populous LGAs are those predominantly dominated by the natives.

Why didn't other yoruba states witness upsurge in voter registration apart from Lagos? A similar pattern of sudden increase is witnessed in the East and Lagos but not in other Yoruba states. Obi effect made Lagos overtake Kano for the first time

This Igbo arrogance will be you guys collective undoing as a people if you continue like this. I repeat, what gives the Igbo the right to exclude Lagos-based Yoruba in any statistic relating to the the SW? Why are you the only people that have bad-belle towards Yorubas over Lagos? I don't give a funck if you choose to ignore the Igbo population in Lagos, but you have no right whatsoever to exclude Lagos-based Yorubas (as if they don't exist) when it relates to anything concerning Yorubas in the SW region, you have absolutely no right or basis.

Instead of this consistent and naked demonstration of jealousy, envy, and bad-belle for Yorubas by you people over Lagos, why not direct your beef at God that didn't gift your people coastal real estate? Na only you people in the whole of Nigeria have a problem with Lagos being a/in Yorubaland. Makes one wonder if you intend to carry the state with you to Biafra.

Add 5 million Igbo voters in Delta, Lagos, Bayelsa, Rivers, Akwa Ibom, Cross Rivers, Edo and Bayelsa.

Your people are very good in stealing lagos data to themselves.Lagos has about 7.1million register voters,but most of you will claim that almost all those register voters are yorubas,even the other 5 sw states has large numbers of non indigenes among there registered voters.
