Fact, i stand by you, by Lagosian and I will forever stand with SW despite I'm not from heir region.

People the Yoruba showed love too are now the ones bcme so ingrate ad turning invaders so annoying indeed an must stop by all means. Enough is enough...

GRACEGLORY:
They're not worked up on it.

There are those claiming the state is a no tribe's land... and causing a tussle

Can one go to Niger State to claim it's no man's land, or Anambra State to claim it's no man's land? Even though we are all one Nigeria, we have our diversity, cultures, and origins.

And that should be respected

Be specific of the Yorubas
Which of the Yorubas own Lagos?

mikeapollo:
Niger Delta oil money was used to develop the whole of Nigeria.
So go to Abuja and PH and call them no man's land.

CollectMoney:
Sure, lagos is the property of the Yorubas.

That the Yorubas even get worked up on this non-issue is bewildering.

Mitsurugi:
Please provide evidence or shut up! And don't bring Nairaland banter as proof

arantess:
lateef jakande said it is no mans land.

so it remains no mans land.

'Akpa amu' did he mention Yoruba in his speech?. He said he's an indigene and the rest of you from Osun, Ondo, Ogun,Oyo, Ekiti, Kwara, Anambra, Enugu, Ebonyi, Kano, Kastina etc are mere citizens and residents.

Get used it and deal with it. We are all citizens of the FGN with right of residence anywhere we choose to in Nigeria.

CollectMoney:
'Aja Otu', states are an artificial creation or simply put, states are a means for the ease of administration.

Being carved into Osun or Oyo does not change one's ethnicity from being Yoruba. That is why I specifically stated that Lagos belong to Yorubas. Lagosians are Yorubas all day, same way Abians or Anambrarians are Igbos.

Yoruba is Yoruba carry your hate to your region.

Uou people should leave SW alone go to your own region and f e c k to hell

mikeapollo:
It does not rile Yoruba.
What riles the Yoruba is the culture of disrespect for your host community.

A Yoruba person would not leave his town, travel long and go and establish himself in Kano, Abuja, PH etc., become successful, and then open his mouth to call the host city a ''no man's land''! It is an insult to the history and heritage of the people and shows lack of proper home training

Not only this attitude.

The same people also do not want to even hear or listen to Yoruba language when they are in commercial buses, church testimonies etc. even though they are living and making a living in Yoruba land.

Mitsurugi:
I agree with the first part but the second part has extenuating circumstances to it. Lagos is cosmopolitan filled with different people not just Igbos. First I think it's wrong to assert that people don't want to hear Yoruba. I know a lot of non indigenes that sing Yoruba songs with gusto. Go to churches for example. Even at parties and clubs without knowing what they're singing sef. Yorubas sing Igbo songs too.
But I think it's arrogant to presume everyone should know your language. It happens a lot in government offices. You arrive and a government official goes into Yoruba and the rakes offence when you admit you don't know the language. This goes to every tribe.

mikeapollo:
Yoruba is Yoruba!
Do you have any other Yoruba originating from your home town or village?

arantess:
lateef jakande said it is no mans land.

so it remains no mans land.

Any Yoruba(s) that own(s) it, own(s) it. At the end of the day, na still Yoruba.

No need for long story sir,

"The pikin wey dey brag to hin papa say e sabi die, hin papa sef go tellam say he too get experience for grave-digging".

You cannot run away from ur region to save ur life from ur 'over-pampered' vagabond brethren only to become nuisance in ur 'idp camps'

waternogetemeny:
LOOK I WIL TELL YOU TO YOUR FACE THAT YORUBA DO NOT OWN LAGOS.


HAVE U EVER SEEN SOMEBODY TELLING PEOPLE REPEATEDLY NA ME GET THIS THING?


DO U SEE AKWA IBOM OR BAYELSA REMINDING PEOPLE THAT THEY OWN IT OR EVEN OGUN AND EKITI REMINDING PEOLE THAT THEY OWN IT.


THE REASON U ARE MAKING NOISE ABOUT LAGOS IS BECAUSE YOU KNOW U DO NOT OWN IT.

ARISHEM:
He said it and he has been corrected. That time he said it he have issues with the state of his mind. Period

MEGAWATCH:
Abuja is NO MAN'S LAND too but not PH.

The money they used in developing PH and other Niger Delta is their money, their blood and their sweat.

I hope you understand it now.
