IamAtikulate:
Please remove 3 million from Igbo voters in Ogun, Oyo, Osun, Ekiti and Ondo.

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

Igbo voters in the South: 19 million

Yoruba voters in the South: 7 million



Nobody has ever won the South without Igbos voters.

Olaoluwa122:
yeah...remove 40% from the population of lagos...the 40% will be shared between Igbos hausa and other minority tribe!!!

Siwel25:


Asiwaju was not on the ballot then and Obi & Atiku were together. Those votes will split now. Yeye!

OkutaNla:
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.

seunmsg:
Let me guess, Lagos is in NW, right? Can we also exclude Enugu from SE?

I swear, obituarists no fit ever get sense again.

Vote4ObiDatti:


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

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!

XerXers:

You people must stop using data from Lagos to brag.

Ddeliverer007:
Lagos is closer to Yoruba land

XerXers:
Igbos population is larger than Yoruba population by far

Siwel25:


Igbos do not realize how many Hausas are in Lagos and they often pray side by side with Yorubas. Their votes have always been for Asiwaju's choice which is why Igbos have never been able to influence Lagos elections as they boast to do.

XerXers:

plaindealer:
Lagos is a predominantly APC state.

The APC wins everything in Lagos state.

The Lagos state's political apparatus, elected officials from all the regions and LGs are almost 99% APC, not PDP, not LP or any other inconsequential mushroom party.

So, when you say Yoruba and ibo population and political power are the same, so, the fact that the APC is the dominant party, also the fact that the APC wins everything in Lagos and nearly all the elected officials are APC means the so called equally dominant ibo people in Lagos vote for the APC.

If Lagos is by population Yoruba/ibo, why are ibo people not equally dominant politically across the board in Lagos? Why are they not occupying half of the elected office in the state and the legislature?

Are ibo people dominant in Ikorodu, Epe, Badagry, Lagos Island and the mainland which remains the APC's largest vote getting LGs?

The fact that you see ibo people in a few enclaves in Ajegunle and a few other places doesn't mean you dominate anything, besides, there are millions of folks from the SS and the North to match your numbers in the Lagos and they don't make crude, crass and low self-esteem noise and project fake sense of relevance.


See, the ibo political relevance and population equality with Yoruba people in Lagos is a myth, it's the usual ibo ignorance and their lousy sense of delusions and meaningless relevance.


Lagos remains predominantly Yoruba and APC state.

nameo:


Some of you are reallly very sillly ...and that is me just been nice.

What the heck is the importance of this to anything apart from a feeling of "satisfaction" from comparing the sizes of your manhood.

And by the way, you cannot be an Obi supporters. Obi supporters are not this petty

XerXers:

Lol, the thing just de pain all of una

nameo:


Peter Obi will win Lagos next year. You can go mark that down.

But that will be not be cos of any Igbo Vs Yoruba imaginary thingy. It will be cos the majority od people in Lagos(Igbos, Yorubas, Binis, Itsekiris, northerners, young, old etc) will vote for Obi.

The so called Igbo population will just be a bonus

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.

paulemmy19:
will these Igbo people come out to vote? That's the issue here

Liebermantic:

Hausa-Fulani people are voting for Atiku Abubakar.. Don't even dream of APC in their midst. Go and start asking Hausa-Fulani people in Lagos.. Don't even think of getting a single vote from Hausa-Fulani people in Lagos.

famouscargo4u:


The rate at which Your people leave the East in droves into Lagos on a daily basis is alarming. However, you can't claim part-ownership of Lagos in anyway

XerXers:

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

OkutaNla:


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.

FreeStuffsNG:

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.
