Elusive001:
Shut up there!!

You are angry that Tinubu built lagos.

If not Tinubu, who built lagos?

Was this not lagos before 1999?

VeryWickedBro:
Yorubas had not migrated there at this point

i no fit dey argue with Gen z. When my papa build house in 1993 grass still dey grow for middle of road in our neighborhood. There was a mr biggs in festac and on the way there ( todays amuwo) the entire stretch was empty. I went to ijanikin for common entrance exam in late 90s. It was empty. There was a resort near badagry i also went to , along the way it was empty. I was alive when igando to lasu road was done. Even lekki axis no be in the last 10-15 years he begin develop massively- there was VGC, Lekki 1 and Eleganza the rest was mostly empty

Sangoamadioha1:
Yeah that is Federal Palace Hotel. Those days after chilling at the Bar Beach, my old man will take us there for more Sunday groove. Good old days.

GBTYO:
Ok now .

And we know from Basden how you guys used to go about buttnaked .

BABANGBALI:
I smell lies

samnaija:
O boy, na saka jojo for vi, from school we go straight to the arcade. Our money for transport and lunch break na arcade game street fighter, xmen.

After finishing all our money, na to dey look other people playing. When those ones money finish, reality now dons on us no transport money. Come and see treeking to lagos Island.

GBTYO:
Oh I am tribal bigot for responding in kind to that your fellow bigot who said Lagos was a forest until Ibos migrated to it

And what's annoying you about Basden's work? Basden remains the only respected and sole authority on Ibo anthropology.

Take your issue to that your bigoted mannerless lout and Basden .

Beverlyjean:
Saying igbos were pat of those that developed lagos is absolutely true , and how is that a tribal slur? Of all tribes , igbos contributed to the development of lagos the most, apart from federal government.. that's facts... just like American will accept that the Italians massively contributed to the development of Las Vegas.... and they are both proud of this ...but yorubas will take it as an insult or tribal slur cos they are tribalistic bigots

GBTYO:
So Ibos met Lagos as a forest and where the ones who developed it to what it is today ?

But they forgot their village in the SE.

Thank you

Beverlyjean:
Why dint Latinos develop their countries like they did to LA and Miami ?? Lagos was capital and it was more conducive to do business and make alot of money cos big cooperates and business are domiciled here ... due to parastatals like NPA , customs, shipping....

Factcheck0001:
it's annoying how u Igbos from across the Niger get mind cross bridge only to come n call yorubas neighboring state

So because an ebonyi man can't b anything in anambara u think that's how it's done everywhere right?

An osun man can become governor in lagos

vanbonattel:
A Lagos without these new influx of neighboring states people from Ibadan,Ogun,osun who all became agberoes and owomida touts everywhere and who invaded it from iragbiji and became governor and introduced tribalism as a means to getting money in Lagos. In fact,he's now president

Beverlyjean:
I repeat...u can't say 80 % ... my dad bought his house in festac in the 80s , build another in coccinellids avenue in 91 , built another in 6th avenue in 2003 ...built another in lekki in 2008, b4 moving to Abuja.... I also schooled in Ijanikin ... festac was well developed in the 90s .if ur dad built his house in an area in festac without roads, then it should be 6th avenue... that the road wasn't tarred don't mean that area wasn't developed... even lekki in the 90s was developed... that some places were remodelled or expanded don't mean it was never developed... Ogudu was developed down to iyana opaja ... Eko bridge was in existence in the 70s .... and it seems u are the gen z ...cos there was nothing like Mr biggs in festac or amuwo in the 90s ... it was in marina ... Mr biggs came to featac either late 90s or early 2000s

No agberos seen around, no touting or owomida miscreants.

franchasofficia:
You are right but your Papa reason could be the same reason why you have not bought acres of land in:

1.) Owerri or Enugu or Onitsha because its Omo Igbo potopoto region that will never develop


2.) Osun, Ondo, Ekiti because they are not Lagos, a megacity with great potential of quadrupling your capital investment in 2 years.


Think about it

Odidigboigbo:
And a Lagos man can't be governor in Osun, what an irony.

We call these ones the 'Wicked Uncle' of Lagos road transport. Danfo is the unruly son. Korope is the middle child, Keke is the 'anyhow' last born, while LT buses is the nasty cousin.
