Why Do Some Igbos Think They Are Lagosian? by NaijaPrince18: 11:55am On Feb 24
Igbos refuse to respect the indigenous cultures and heritage of Nigeria. Have you ever seen a Yoruba pretend to be from anambra?

A Lagosian is anyone living in Lagos or born in Lagos.
If you have lassra abi wetin Dem dey call am then you be Lagosian.

Speaking yoruba doesn't make you a Lagosian. Living in Lagos makes you a Lagosian.
Londoners and Americans are people living those places not necessarily natives.

Now a native American or a native Londoner or a native Lagosian born in anywhere else from their home state is still an American or Londoner or Lagosian

This is what is called delusion of grandeur, nothing in the universe can make Igbos Lagosians because Yoruba who own Lagos can see tru you deceit.

Today Oshodi is not a Yoruba name but ask anybody bearing Oshodi if they are Yorubas or not. That is because Yorubas accepted them totally because they are not filled with hate jealousy n envy like you Igbos n we know they care about the well being of those they live among.

I won't want to go deeper make e no pain you pass as he de pain atm but there you have Yoruba seamless integration with other ethnicity unlike hate filled souls that think they can impose who a Lagosian is or not.

Una papa never reach.

Your hatred for igbos is irrelevant to reality. Igbo businessmen making waves in Lagos are more Important to Lagos state than ilu oke migrant thinking speaking yoruba makes him a Lagosian.

The only people who find it easily to claim Lagos of which they don't are the ogun state people.
It's not easy to separate Lagos and ogun state ties because they're of the same ethic people and same culture.

Any other proposition is attached by force Lagosian by ilu oke citizens

Many of you igbos do not know how pathetic n exceedingly foolish you sound arguing you are Lagosian but those from Ogun Osun etc should not be Lagosian.

How many hills mountains rivers you igbo papa cross before you land in Lagos compare to anyone from Ogun Osun Oyo etc ?

Hating Igbo is a right your wailing can not stop, we know how you Igbos hated the entire Fulani malign n insult them. You have to be deluded thinking you can gaslight me from or for hating Igbos. I hate Igbos with my full chest.

Igbos making waves in Lagos .🤣🤣🤣🤣.
You have to be biggest n most foolish clown in town if you do not know more than triple Yoribas make bigger waves than Igbos in Lagos. No be eveeything be foolish n senseless noise making or chest beating.

Yorubas no be your papa mate for anywhere be it in Lagos America UK, maybe Malaysia Cambodia jails sha.

This Dickson handle na real dickhead.

I read on another thread how one yoruba man was saying the igbos and yorubas are sworn enemies.

An average igbo man is an imperialist

The igbos have this very bad mentality about them. They feel that if they are not the ones that endorsed a person that is doing something, then the person is not doing the right job.

Politically, they are short sighted. They lack vision. They don't see beyond the present.

When Ironsi abolished regional government because his people were in charge, it was sweet and rosy then. Immediately they ousted them, they started crying foul.

They've never gotten any political calculations right. They've always voted in shitty candidates as governors.

How can you vote Gbadebo Vivour ahead of Sanwo Olu? What were you trying to prove? Sheer hatred for APC?

How can you vote Obi ahead of Atiku? The same person who brought your Obi to national limelight..

They feel it must always be them or their candidate.

Very terrible mentality

You're the one who is doing dick measurement here.
Osun, Oyo, Kwara that doesn't live in Lagos is not a lagosian.
Igbos that were not born and does not live in Lagos are not Lagosian.

Lagosians are people residing in Lagos.

Lagosians are the people indigenous to Lagos which are Yorubas. Paying taxes doesn’t make you Lagosian. Indians don’t claim to be lagosian but you chimps from the east always try that nonsense
