Alezy:
this is the mentality of an average Nigerian, why? Because tribal sentiments have eaten deep into your minds.

You are First of all Nigerian before Yoruba. Irrespective of your ancestral home, someone who has lived with you for a good number of years becomes like you as co owner of the land that's why u can see Sunak as PM in the UK today and Obama ruled the US. There was no racial stunt against him why? He is/was more American than those who are from there because he grew up there and spent more years than many of them.

But No, you all have used a word of one or two people to judge a whole tribe asking that they live you. Whereas without that tribe, your town would be far backwards than it is now.

In PH I know areas dominated by Yorubas, some where born here and this is their home. No one would ever ask them out of here because they are first Nigerian before Yoruba. That does not mean one or two of them haven't done or said bad things to indigens here. You can never hear anyone say leave PH.

You guys should stop this foolish tribalistic behavior.

Wrong.

You are first of all your ethnicity before you're Nigerian.

Nigeria is a bri:tish map which groups indigenous African nations/tribes into the location known as Nigeria so someone from a different tribe can never ever have equal stake in another part of Nigeria because that is not the person's ethnic territory.

If you say you're Nigerian then it means you were created by the br:itish and started existing in 1914.

There is no ethnicity called Nigerian.

Okay.

So referendum and a split sound okay? Otherwise I don’t see another solution. Can’t force a marriage you don’t really believe in because it favors you even though you loathe your partner. That’s what y’all sound like when you hate Igbos for wanting a separate country but refuse to acknowledge igbo people as fellow and equal citizens. Can’t eat your cake and have it.

There’s no way you’re taking resources from other parts of the country to develop another part and then tell them they have no stake in it because of their ethnicity. Their ethnicity should have been considered before they became improved with the collective commonwealth.

Authenticbiz:


That west you think is flourishing didn't reach that level by our respected Yoruba brothers ....you know I am saying the truth. Check the facts well. The people that developed Lagos state aren't the original dwellers...it was strangers, of which the Igbos were at the fore front.

Lagos, just like fct was lucky to be made Nigeria's capital back then because of the ease of trade with the colonial masters and other parts of Europe, largely due to apapa warf.


Just thesame way KARU LGA of Nasarawa state is being named the fastest growing LGA in africa. Before El-Rufai demolished parts of Abuja and people were forced to relocate to the neighbouring Mararaba, masaka, new Nyanya, uke, etc (all are the major parts of this KARU LGA), these places were just bushes with scanty houses.

Those who are there now and fair enough in their judgement will know that I am saying the truth.

The influx of people from fct due to demolition by El-Rufai into these areas has caused a rapid growth , thus KARU has retained that title of "the fastest growing LGA in Africa since then"

This LGA now generates the highest amount of IGR for nasarawa state, But do you know what's happening now, the politicians have refused to construct good roads and plan the place well. Their major reason is the KARU LGA is occupied by non-indigens , thus it can't attract attention from government.

But they collect revenue like someone going to his business area to collect money from his sales boys (I know this because I worked there during NTAX, in the days of VAIDS). And presently, one of my factories is there.

Let me ask you one question.... If these non-indigens revolt now on thesame grounds that the politicians are claiming, and stop paying tax, won't thesame government will call them ingrates....and label them with a bad name...??

That's what is happening in Lagos.

So, you see....you can't beat a child and ask him not to cry.

If our politicians won't tolerate other tribes in their states, in the so-called name of "ONE NIGERIA", let them agree to secession and let every region walk their way, and let's see which region will develop faster than the rest.

I rest my case.

Lagos was called Oko ( farm )... So it already had all the resources to develop on it's own even before the Po:rtuguese and en:glish ever stepped foot in Nigeria.

Iamziggy:
Okay now playing the victim card as usual
They want one nigeria Dey called lagos no mans land, they want one Nigeria they called every other tribes zombies, they want one Nigeria but they called Nigeria a zoo. Some even shred their national passport claiming they don't want anything to do with nigeria, And now u receive the same hate u give to people you're now playing the victim card.
As soon as Peter obi emerge they all suddenly claim to love Nigeria and want Nigeria it's no longer a zoo and Nigerians are no longer zombies.
Reason well abeg.

Nigeria is a zoo now! That is why Tinubu can steal an election in broad day light!

GeneralPula:

Can you show me anywhere yorubas have called Anambra a No Man’s land?

Why are Igbos not calling Delta a No man’s land?
Why are Igbos not calling Kano a No man’s land?
Why are Igbos not calling Rivers a No man’s land?

Show us one Igbo man that called Lagos a no man's land! Bar room gossip is what you goons are spreading.......

Ethnicity was considered before the 1966 coup.

It was Igbos that truncated the system that protected ethnic economic interests due to the fact that they wanted all the revenue and resources from other regions to themselves only and also wanted to govern the other regions and this was because other regions were better than their region.

Lagos will be burnt, no single thing will remain

na una go leave by una self without anyone telling you to leave

The only zoo I see is IPOB coz because they kill their own people to prove their grievance to the world in the name of freedom.
And d real zombies are still the IPOB because they receive orders from men who are not in the battle front with them.

Is Lagos a foreign land to Nigerians from other states?

What's the sin of GRV?

Lagos is in Yoruba territory so yes it is foreign land to non-yorubas.

GRV is a descendant of returned black people from South America who the en:glish favoured over Yoruba people.

Descendants of returned black people are not indigenes of the land they are imposters who bare first names similar to the indigenes so that they can benefit from what the indigenes are supposed to benefit from.

I'm truly disappointed this is coming from you. You know better bro. I don't reside in Lagos but I visit occasionally. the lame excuse that Igbos call Lagos no man's land does not hold water.
Everyone knows Lagos belongs to the yorubas. I haven't seen any Igbo man or group laying claim to Lagos.
I first heard the Lagos is a no man's land on nairaland made as fun to poke you guys.

The Igbos adore their heritage and will always return to it at every slightest opportunity.

It is baffling how the yorubas forget the real ominous threat knocking on their door- the Fulani expansionist agenda taking over lands in the middle belt, Benue and Yoruba lands.
I was happy when Amotekun was floated to tackle this issue, yet it is the Igbo man who goes about his business peacefully and has never even raised a stick in an act of aggression towards grabbing your land that is the threat.
It is mind boggling how you denied your son Gbadebo and Brandon him Ipob because he declared under labor party. This is really shocking.
I'm beginning to see some Yoruba folks in a new light. I still respect some of them because I have them as friends here and even my tenant who live free in my house in the village is Yoruba.

Yorubas and Igbos fought each other during the civil war..

the civil war was Yoruba vs Igbo war.


in the 1960s , nzeogwu exhibited such hatred towards Yorubas.


"According to a Nigerian Police Special Branch Report, nzeogwu executed at least 4 army and police security personnel including one of the men on his team (Sergeant Daramola Oyegoke). nzeogwu also participated in the execution of Col. Raph Shodeinde, his superior officer at the Nigerian Military Training College and is reported to have shot indiscriminately at fleeing women and children.."..

the statement above shows pure hatred for Yorubas and a lot of igbos all have this similar behavior towards Yorubas.

The Igbos also tried to attack the SW but we're stopped at Ore.

Before the civil war, Nnamdi Azikwe was also fighting the Yorubas politically because he wanted to be premier of the Yoruba region.

What ignorant crockshit

But let me indulge you and say you’re correct. So then a split country is best don’t you think so?
Because last I checked igbos aren’t ruling. Who are the ones ruling now and refuse to give other regions a fair chance. Igbos?

Because y’all project your crimes onto us doesn’t make it true. The facts speak otherwise. But I doubt your bigotry will let you see it

lol read between the lines. Wetin dey pain wayo person pass ?

This is psychology 404. WAyo man jam wayo man for psychological battle front. All these things on nairaland between tribes is a psychological battle front and you can’t show weakness. All these wailing is weakness. You have to decimate and obliterate the man by messing with his mind and making him understand that you are always wining no matter the circumstances . These are spiritual battle fronts between ancient bloodlines but this time we get to fight the war virtually and as a Yoruba man your weaponry is agbari not wailing. Always let the man know that you are on top and winning while he is not. Na wetin dey pain pugnacious capitalistic wayo man be that

Ah, my broda! Walahi Talabi, I no know say na you o. I no look moniker. I was busy firing those dingbat obidients who are claiming that Lagos is a no man's land then suddenly are recognizing g that there are indigenous Lagosians since they have been able to smuggle Chinedu the mongrel hybrid.

Yes, splitting the country is the best. But even Igbos themselves don't want the country to split because if they wanted it then they'll invest mainly in their region.

When Igbos ruled Nigeria from 1960 - 1966 the only thing that they could think of was subjugating other tribes in Nigeria.

Igbos have had their chance in Nigeria and they messed it up themselves.

The hard truth is it is majorly non-indigenes that developed Lagos. They can argue with their keypads all they want, but it won't change the hard, cold facts

Is it non-yorubas that are signing road construction contracts in Lagos?

Is it non-yorubas that are signing rail construction contracts in Lagos?

Is it non-yorubas that are drafting the development plan of LGAs in Lagos?

Is it non-yorubas that foreign investors will set up meetings with in Lagos?

Stop saying nonsense..

Princewell2012:


We even needs the agenda much more than he is saying it, at least the one that will be enough to call for a referendum.

The reason why the Yoruba's are doing all this to the Igbo's is because we have never engaged them in a battle before, so they think we are Coward. They are respecting the northerners now because those one have show then little things before.

Biafran wanted to exit peacefully that's why they are behaving like a fool to achieved their arm, but this people are taking it as an act of cowardice.

You came to where election is taking place and you have the effrontery to the Igbo's if you can't vote for APC disappear from this place. And yet we still called it one Nigeria.

I personally don't advocate for trouble but sometimes it is good to fight back.

Are you just stupid or ignorant? How many sea ports are there in the east? How many of them are working? Who are the business men and women in Lagos? How many goods have your entire generation imported in Nigeria? Let other sea port be functional then let see how there won't be mass exodus from Lagos... Igbos are business people wherever there is a conducive atmosphere for business they cite their tent there... As for now Lagos has the only functional sea port courtesy of civil war betrayal of Awolowo, sea port as a parting gift.

There's a port in Rivers state called "port Harcourt".
There are also:
Calabar port
Onne port
Warri port..

SE and SS have 4 ports

while the SW only has 2 ports.

By that time you sef go loss the small job wey dey give you chop money. Think bro you no get sense.

You see the problem?
Which foreign land are you referring to?
Is Lagos a foreign land to an Igbo/Hausa man?
Lagos is in Nigeria, Igbos/Hausas are Nigerians, the Igbos/Hausas in Lagos are not in a foreign land, they are in their home country. You that is talking are you from Lagos or from Ekiti ?

Thermodynamics:


You see the problem?
Your identity has NOTHING to do with tribe or religion, those where things you were told when growing up, you are identified as a human, then as a black man, that's all, these are the only thing that came with you when you were born, tribe/religion are just things you picked up. The back Americans who were stolen from Africa years ago can tell that they were truly Africans because of their skin colour, the don't know if their ancestors were Igbo or Yoruba, they just know that they are human, and they are black because these are the only thing that cannot be removed from them, these are their intrinsic nature.


Which heritage are you referring to?
Is Lagos a foreign land to an Igbo/Hausa man?
Lagos is in Nigeria, Igbos/Hausas are Nigerians, the Igbos/Hausas in Lagos are not in a foreign land, they are in their home country. You that is talking are you from Lagos or from Ekiti ?

No place on earth can develop itself no matter the amount of resources it has.

I don't know what you mean by resources...
If you mean human beings, then, mind you, the yorubas weren't the only ones occupying Lagos then.

If you mean companies,local industries,. and trade, no be human beings bring those things...

And there aren't any known record showing that only the original settlers in Lagos brought those developments.

Let's be truthful when discussing public issues.
