undecided

This information is wrong...the first elected municipal mayor in the United States from Nigeria...is from Rivers state of Ikwerre origin.

This man wouldn't have been able to achieve this if he was living in Awka, Enugu, or Owerri simply because he is Yoruba.

God bless the USA

Look at this waste product, he is not constituting nuisance over there, he respect his host over there and he is not threatening anyone over there, let me add that he was well brought up by parents who taught him good morals. That’s an Omoluabi unlike you omo irankiran. We don’t use leg to wake our parents here.

As if you can give him chance in your local government.

If he lives there he has a right to vote abd his voted counted not the charade and criminality in lagos state bt people can't vote and exercise their constitutional right unless they are voting apc lagos.

That is Criminality and antidemocratic practice.

Tell us if any Yoruba, Hausa or Fulani man don hold any political appointment him South East.

Preach what you practice in your region

The first Mayor of Enugu was a Fulani Man from Sokoto state in 1952. And he was duly elected by the indigenous people of Enugu. His name is Mallam Altine Umaru and held the position till 1958.

Igbos have always led by example.

Back in the 50s and 60s when there were a lot of bigots in US he wouldn't have made for just being black alone




Tinubu Said worse about Nigeria grin grin

Used all sort of derogatory remarks saying Infact he doesn't believe in Nigeria

Why didn't you agbado gorrilas attack him

Bloody Hypocrites sad

You should be more worried about your enclave where no imolite can be allowed to hold any political post in enugu; where no abian will be allowed in political space of Anambra and where Ebonyians are treated as osu everywhere in alaigbo.

Is that equivalent to a local government chairman, something that we don’t put any attention on in our country, then wail about how oyinbos are racist, exploiting our resources?

Why do we want to reap what we have not sown, which will make us thieves

He didn't acted unruly. He was true Omoluabi. He didn't go there to tell them that his grandfathers were the one that built the city with their sweat. Or that his parents are the developer. 😁

If this was tinubu , sanwolu, bayo onanuga, ffk and other tribal gang of apc, they will say his mother is another tribe so he cannot be mayor or he is not yoruba so he cannot be mayor.
Very disgusting group of humans.



But your sister is driving train here in lagos and some even working at local government sector but can hausa man get chance in SE?

Very pedestrian logic and weak premise...

Make your way to the South East...add value there and then when it is time for elective contest, then try your luck...

I am uber certain that you stand a chance of winning...

Nobody would mail a position to you when you refuse to muster the cojones to pit your wits against a challenging environment...

The Igbos have earned their position in Lagos and any other part of Nigeria...It is not as if they got to the positions gratis or free from seemingly insurmountable constraints...

He is an OMOLUABI,go find out what that means and as such,he will NEVER call America a no man's land as some village dwelling savages from a particular section of Nigeria always like to call Lagos, a Yoruba land ! Do you now get the drift ? Of course,any idiot from a godforsaken village who wants to step out of line in Lagos or any other parts of Yoruba land will be shown the way back to his or her village !

Lol,this Lagos thing dey pain una o ! Sorry,omo Nna,but you guys should be proud of Alaigbo too,why una wan be "LAGOSIANS" by fire by force nah ?!

Ordinary your own can't even contest in your region and you want to contest in another region. See, that has always been your problem. You crying for not getting what you can't give.
