Insecurity is just your problem. You hold LASG positions yet insecured. Lagos is great because of its diversity. The day Lagos lose that, it is finished. No major city in the world has a tribe in it.

Lagos state government will soon show those people that Lagos is not no man's land.

Maxxim:
Bros stop being too emotional on this matter, if the traders felt they're being overtaxed why not report to necessary state department or hold a peaceful demonstration instead of causing unnecessary drama everywhere.

I was at the market today
I saw things with my eyes
And I don't blame them for what they did

Those pests (extortionists) are something else

I'm angry because I knew it will come to this (Yoruba vs Igbo / Host vs Settler) crap

ednut1:
Two wrongs don’t make a right. These agbero tax collectors are a menace in lagos . Even people hawking coke with little profits get taxed daily. But this thing these traders did cannot be tolerated in onitsha or kano

I don't Know about Kano but Onitsha worst past Lagos own sef

Alabaintprice:
I won't say this more than once. The day you yorubas decide to play a fast one on Igbos or Igbo community in Lagos is the day you will be playing on a keg of gun powder.

Igbos respect themselves and stay on there own mi ding there business but you skinny idiots feel you have to lower to harass and intimidate anyone because it is Lagos.

Put it at the back of your mind that no one has monopoly of madness and because we are quiet doesn't mean we are fools.

What happened today at alaba is a warning to you all who wants to intimidate Igbos.

Election won't even be funny at all.

Let everyone respect themselves and there boundaries.

Another flat headed hairy chestbeater, in the early 2000s when your elders where begging for peace when O.P.C nearly wiped out a section of that market, where were you? you better stay in your lane, if you do not want worse fate to befall you, and to make matters worse, you have no allies in the country, you have virtually insulted every other ethnic group.

Urchins are biting the finger that is feeding them

Lol, it is funny how you guys think Lagos can survive with out diversity. Even in London where Yorubas are seen almost every where, no one has ask them to leave bevos of agbero extortion. Pray you live enough to the age of my father you insulted.

Ur papa wey no get more than one wrapper dey mad for ur village...
If u are being extorted, e get ways to reason am, if the extortion ain't stopping, u live the place, u are just a fvcking visitor... know that and get it stucked in ur fvcked up brain, osu.....

Only Awori, Egun or the Ijebus (of Ikorodu and Epe) are actual the indigenous people of Lagos, and we do not take their hospitality for granted. Every other person na 'mo gbo mo ya'. Ma tan ra eh.

so Awori and Ijebu na from South East dem from come ur mumu never do

post=117701784:
This is seriously serious!

What is the cause of this?!
We heard some people lost their lives.
So sad

Can someone in Alaba answer the above question please?!

Peace is all we need in our Darling nation, not fights among brethren.

We Rise.


That's the question begging for an answer.


Thank God for your life.
We were there last Saturday also to go round up a deal with a Barbecue Client, that his wedding is coming up this weekend.
May God keep him safe and sound for us and his bae.

The chairman of electronics stopped those selling on the road side from displaying there goods because they're causing obstruction in the mkt, the agberos resisted him because they're the ones collecting money from the road side traders. That's all.

The mkt was closed abruptly for today.

[quote author=azpekuliar post=117701792]These jobless Agberos/omoniles will not go and work to earn a decent living. Always looking to extort hardworking traders. This is the South-West's version of the out-of-school children in the North who are turning into Banditry and Terrorism. [/quote

You have started bah. Better go back to your Unknown Gunmen eastside and do your business there in peace.

Brendaniel:
please I hate hearing this, It's just like saying Abuja is different from Lugbe....

It's better you start accepting the fact.
Enugu capital is different from Enugu state.

In Lagos state there's a place called Lagos, this place is what was the capital you refer to.

I'm from Lagos Epe but my ancestors were from Epe also but Epe was not Lagos then. That's why my late grandfather refer to Epe as ijebu and Eko as Eko.

azpekuliar:
..who told you the true owners want Yorubas from neighboring states to claim it? Una be the same thing with omo ibo oo

so awori and ijebus are omo ibo abi?

YorubarLord:
The same yeebow that were fleeing 2 even got killed. Na online una sabi beat chest. You will collect woto woto this election season if una pass una boundaries. Yoruba don kuku mean una b4

You people speak like fools sometimes... You said they were fleeing.. go to you tube and watch the complete video and see who was fleeing.. cowards like una ... This is what will happen to you guys if you try any funny thing next election

Masterito:
Do you know this has happened before? 25 years back same thing happened in Alaba. It was a riot. This is not right. How do you pay federal, state, and local government tax, then pay agbero tax? I heard the tours increased thier illegal fee today for another person goods and they got angry. I even heard the hausas in Alaba arago join the fight against illegal extortion.

I felt for the traders but I believe a better approach could be adopted, maybe each traders could sign up a petition, which could have been more effective.

Please leave the North out of this. Hausas joined Ibos to chase agderoa today. Hausas are complaining that thier truck pushers are being extorted like Ibos.

Snapchat:
Na this mentality dey make them dey beat you for other people land from north to west to south. If he come sup now, you guys will come online and claim victim

For every 1 Yoruba person wey die, I assure you say 10 ibo traders go become abobaku for am. Not only that, your business go suffer because the agberos get back up for government and na their papa land.

INDOMIE9090:

You know that is not what I am saying.

chibnnodi:
The Nigerian government should let the Igbos go, if they don't want the Igbos to have peace in Nigeria. The Igbos inherently, know how to fight to survive.

and did you kW that even if Nigeria divide today 40% of igbos will not return to east

Brendaniel:
It is very annoying when some Yorubas claim that Tinubu or that Yorubas built Lagos, Lagos was FCT for 77 years built by the sweat and resources of every tribe even before Tinubu became governor, just Imagine Abuja that has been FCT for just over 30 something years, then the Gbagyi people begin to lay claims to the development of Abuja and insulting other tribes that they are Lazy, wouldn't it be an insult to every other tribe in Nigeria...

And please don't bring the bullshit of Enugu or Calabar as FCT, please state the number of years they were...

and what was left in Lagos since 1991 is what is still there till today? Most of the government properties left in Lagos since 1991 is no more in use today you should know that before somewhere can make the capital of a country there must be some certain qualities the place possess.
And nothing changes the fact that Lagos is a Yoruba territory.

Let me correct one thing first. Lagos became the capital of Nigeria in 1960 and remained the capital till 1991. Lagos was the capital of Nigeria for just 31years and not 77years as you're claiming.

Lagos grew its IGR from N600 million monthly to N50 billion monthly between 1999 to 2021. That's a 70fold growth in IGR. Meanwhile the seat of power has been relocated to Abuja eight years before 1999. Which other state comes close?
How come, even Abuja, the seat of power for the past 31years is not is not even making 20% of what Lagos is generating.

Lagos is not suitable to be chosen as a capital due to its location, most countries prefer their capital to be at the center for obvious reasons which we can see with the choice of Abuja. But something attracted government presence their. The same thing that attracted the Portuguese traders to Lagos decades before.

At a time when each region control their resources, the federal government does not have the money to build the kind of infrastructure in Lagoss. ces. It wasn't the federal government that developed Lagos, they don't have the money.

Immediately Nigeria's economic focus shifted from agriculture to oil under the military federal government, the seat of power was relocated to Abuja. If you attached the development in Abuja to proceeds of resources from all over the country, you would have been right.

Lekki, Ajah, VGC, Banana island, Eko Atlantic evolution had nothing to do with what you're claiming. Stop hating on Lagos as if Lagos is the reason your region is backward.

Get yourself a visionary leader.

Get a Jagaban

Lol... OPC, the same one that can't make a move in Ago palace way there headquarter .

They should come back again this time.

All you stupid fools know how to do is to make noise the best. It saddens me that even the non educated touts on the street don't ignite as much trouble as the educated ones on nairaland......

It's disturbing to say the least.

What is even more surprising is that after making all this mouth, nothing still happens.

But don't let the idea of you own Lagos and you can do whatever you wish get into your head.

You will be matched 1 on 1.

Stay on your lane and allow Igbos be and live respectfully like they always do.
