God bless YUL!

He has spoken the mind of God!

This was why even Canada is currently refusing to sell land to foreigners anymore.
If there is no peace, you cannot forcefully live in Lagos, how much more make money there.

Let peace reign😎

Long Live Jagaban!
walahi God Canadian prime minister, he saw this kind of Chao coming,other tribes are watching what's happening in Lagos now

In as much as there is no doubt and an incontrovertible fact that Lagos is Yorubaland, this Yul Edochie has become unnecessarily lousy and chauvinistic in recent times.

Always speaking trash and creating storms in a teacup even in his home front..

A moniker that was created yesterday yet has spent more time here than some that are a month older is here to talk about tribalism while quoting an inconsequential fool who could not put his home in order from the same tribe he detest. Lagos is a south western state but also a cosmopolitan just like Abuja. Every Nigerian has equal rights no matter where they live in Nigeria.
For those of you quoting me, you haven't pointed out to me what part of my comment is wrong.
Nobody is arguing whether or not Lagos is a Yoruba land.
If this has to do with Grv and Sanwolu, then I will tell you that this is the first time a true lagosian is going to rule Lagos. And again,sanwolu is just a place holder.

Please try using that thing between your ears a little bit….perhaps then you’ll be able to discern the point Mr Edochie is making, and you’ll also realise that Lagos is not Abuja which was created deliberately by resettling the original land owners!
Keep taking people’s accommodating nature for granted and you’ll soon have to charter your night buses once again for your habitual mass relocation! cool cool

This is not true! It is the opposite.

Lagos is why Ibo is successful. Without Lagos, Ibo is a nobody.

Show me a successful iboman that has zero contact with Lagos. Just one!


You think Lagos is the only place where ibos are, go to Kano, Kaduna and even Maiduguri and see ibo men making millions doing business. Maiduguri as a town was once controlled by ibo business men until they started this their Boko Haram nonsense...and now they are regretting it.

Why didn't Vivour-Rhodes add Chinedu to his name before now, if not to wipe the sentiment of the Igbos?

Why did Jonathan add Azikiwe to his name during electioneering?

It's a political norm to create affinity.

Same reason why Tinubu wore an Atibo in the SS during election, and an Isiagu in the South East too.

HE HAS LIVED IN LAGOS SINCE 2011 AND BUILT HOUSE, SO THAT QUALIFY HIM TO MAKE SUCH IGNORANT STATEMENT ABI?



THERE ARE IGBOS AND NIGERIANS AT LARGE, WHOSE GRANDPARENTS WERE BORN IN LAGOS.



THEIR PARENTS BORN IN LAGOS AND THEY BORN IN LAGOS AND THEIR CHILDREN BORN IN LAGOS.




LAGOS IS NOBODY VILLAGE, IT IS A COSMOPOLITAN AREA AND A CITY, WHERE COMPLETE STRANGERS LIVE SIDE BY SIDE, USUALLY DIFFERNT TRIBES.




SO IT IS ON THAT BASES WE SAY LAGOS IS NO MANS LAND, BECAUSE WE ARE ALL STAKE HOLDRES IN THE DEVELOPMENT OF LAGOS AS OUR CITY STATE.

You aren't making sense and your argument lacks validity

No it’s not that. It’s because of GRV past that was unraveled.

Igbos can’t take 1 bit of what they try dishing out.

Let’s say there is an Igbo guy with Yoruba mom, he called Igbos Nyamuri and Osu in many of his tweets and support OPC. Then he couldn’t even speak Igbo and he is running to be the governor of Anambra state.

Will you vote him? Abi no be the same Igbo that won’t even vote Bianca in Anambra again?

Brymo did not even abuse Igbos much before you all descended on him, why them are you gaslighting the Yorubas for descending on Chinedu Gbadebo that most of his past tweet are clearly anti-Yoruba?


You're so full of hate and tribalism. The GRV you're crucifying is he not a Yoruba man? You're simply frustrated that LP will win Lagos Governorship on Saturday and decided to rope Igbo people into your pain. Your sanity is in doubt as you shamelessly make tribalism your campaign focal point. GRV is your next Governor. Learn to live with it.

Nobody is dragging Lagos state with the Yoruba’s nobody ever disputed the fact that it’s not a Yoruba land but don’t constantly use it as a debate to those none indigenes living there they all contributed to the internal generated revenue which the state is using to executes projects they also pay tax too by such they are also part of Lagos,. Imagine living in New York working or doing business there also paying tax to the government you will definitely benefits from Tax refunds and every other benefits due for those residing in New York they won’t sentiments you, what I am saying it that a citizen of a country or a state can not actually make up the state there must surely be foreigners coming to do business there do not make life hard for them all because their political views doesn’t align with yours, we are all Nigerians before tribe/religion.

Perfect statement. But some set of igbos probably came newly are bent on destroying the unity that have existed for years between the Yorubas and the Igbos.
I grew up and did my University’s education in Lagos as an itsekiri with thousands of my Igbo childhood friends without knowing the differences in tribes until i left lagos 28years ago only to start hearing and reading the deep hatred against the Yorubas by the Igbos. When yorubas take a stand the igbos in lagos work against it. They insult so badly that it has become very intolerable and unacceptable. The whole thing i fear might soon spill over to a an unmanageable point. Stop this hatred for the Yorubas. Stop insulting their leaders. Let’s maintain the friendship that has made us strong and enviable. Don’t start what you cannot finish. Lagos have accommodated you much more than any other state in Nigeria, please appreciate this and respect your host.

Did Yoruba name Lagos? Did Igbo name Nigeria?

As we watch and masturbate over being a Chelsea fan or Spurs fan, why can't we masturbate their political structure- Independent Home nations of Wales, Scotland, England, etc....

Give Oduduwa their own parliament, Arewa their own, and on and on, and let each region develop as they wish...


But since we have a lot of NIGGERS, they will begin to vex...

I think Igbo in Lagos has perceived what to become of them in the next 2 years that's the reason they are shifting the goal post.
Yorubas need to do more to put them in their place by enacting LAWS.and I believe it is a must before next four years.

All Obas of Lagos trace their lineage to Ashipa, a war captain of the Oba of Benin. Ashipa was rewarded with the title of the Oloriogun (or War leader) and received the Oba of Benin's sanction to govern Lagos on his behalf. The slaves that returned to Lagos to join the Binis and the Awori are not all even Yoruba, they are tribes across Nigeria

Three groups made up Lagos: 1 The Binis, who established the traditional Government in Lagos still currently practice. The OBAship

2) The Aworis, who were fishermen and they were under the rule of the Obas(Binis)

3) The returned slaves, where not just only Yoruba but from other tribes across Nigeria
These are the reason why Lagos is been termed as no man land. Do your research or ask your elders

Stop saying rubbish and rewriting history with false and nonsense info.

The Oba of Benin had an intermediary in Lagos who used to communicate with the Yorubas ( who was later called the Oba of a particular section of Lagos).

he was a person who traded with the indigenous Yoruba and more of an intermediary or secretary or diplomat of the Oba of benin and if the Yorubas wanted to do business with the Oba of benin he was the intermediary they will use... Lagos was called a farm ( Oko ) and also part of Ogun then the Portuguese came and called the part of Ogun they traded with Lagos.. and it was governed by warring Yoruba tribes that's why the Oba of Benin intermediary called it war camp ( eko ).. over time the intermediary stopped been a Bini indigene and Yorubas took over the post and changed it to Oba of Lagos..
