And to think those idiots where condemning Trump for proposing to end US citizenship by birth, marriage etc.
Same idiots have bn insulting Trump for his deportation policy.
Those same idiots were insulting Kemi Badenoch for proposing that immigrants must wait at least 15 years before becoming eligible for British citizenship.


U can see the hypocrisy of these mandate standers. So many of their brothers are in the Uk begging and looking for ways to becoming a citizen of UK. But see wat their relations at home are doing. This is funny.
grin why are you crying over yorubaland? Is Lagos no longer smelling and a slum?

Why can’t you be proud of your osu heritage and potopoto land? No one is interested in ibo indigenship status grin why are you forcing yourself to be a yorubaman?

Pls have some shame, even your ancestors will be rolling in there grave for this display of low inferiority grin

The Bill is good and should be supported.

It's a demonic bill meant to erode cultural identity, and it will never sail. The proponent of this bill knows his intentions, and fortunately for us all, we know it too.
Mtchweee 😔

What's wrong with the Bill? It should be passed. You can't be a clog in the wheel of progress.

As it should be.
People are more comfortable with someone that's of their language and culture than an outsider. It's human nature.
Yes, it is the purpose of having languages/tribes in nature. It was for default governance and sovereignty. But now that we have so much oil/gas in some places and others do not have, then smart people started forcing unity on others in the umbrella of Countries just to exploit those resources.

I would not have worked a day in my life if Meritocracy based on tribal ethnocracy was allowed to thrive, I have too much oil/gas under my feet to work a day in my life, but Nigeria is taking all I have and sharing with people who are actually enemies of my people.

I can not complain, and I love to share. I personally want Yorubas to own and run Lagos State, it is near to them, even though Eko and Lagos are Edo and Portuguese words respectively, it means that the Yorubas allowed themselves to be subverted and now even if we wanna say Lagos is Yoruba, the question is how many square meters do Yorubas actually own? Not much, it is cosmopolitan now, so lettimg a few of their tribesmen run the State is okay.

No be who cook soup dey chop most.

Now that I am aware that we have baby gorillas in Nigeria, this bill should be used to clean the yansh of baby gorillas, otherwise,we are ready. If this bill should pass, we are very ready for it 100%.
If I resided in the SE for 10 years for instance and I automatically became an indigene of SE, and then I wanted to buy a choice land in the SE and they will be telling me that the land is an ancestral land or community land and cannot be sold to a stranger and then somebody will now take me to one land beside a shrine and ask me to buy it, that's when they will know that I can break bottle on somebody's head. If you are pushing to become an indigene in another man's house, you had better think it twice now. If the bill is passed, we don't want to hear that Fulanis cannot be given free lands for ruga in the SE. Because many Northerners are married to Ibos and have been living in the SE before independence.
Don't worry about us with the Northerners fear fear Afo nja 🤣🤣🤣 Time for us to invade Lagos and occupy all Afo nja land and claim ownership 😂😂😂

Why is it that it's only Yorubas that are complaining about this bill? And why are they insulting the Igbos because of a bill meant to give everyone equal right?

The people promoting this bill are the same gumbody gumbody gumbody people. The real unity beggars. Cowards they are and riddled with inferiority complex.

Today, they will claim to be the lost tribe of Israel, tomorrow they will tell you Ikwere is not a unique ethnic group (so as to steal ikwere land), over morrow, they will tell you that Lagos is a no-man's-land.

They are the same people sponsoring and encouraging terrorism against their own people in the name of freedom fighting. They are the sit-at-home goons (who call other cowards) but hide under their beds every Mondays for fear of getting murdered by their own "freedom fighters".

Instead of seeking to develop their own region and make it viable for other Nigerians, they kept encouraging the destruction of it (e.g through sit-at-home). Even their formal governors and leader have escape the region to live in other region.

The same mistake of greed and covetousness their forefathers did is what they've embarked upon today. While other region were undergoing developmental and pace setting projects that resulted to why their region is viable today (with many economic opportunities), their fathers were poking noses into others' regional policies and devising means to take over what belongs to others.

They will want you to practise one-nigerianess in your own land, overstretching your limited resources but will in their hypocrisy reject the same in their region.

In their region it is all about give us seccession, give us our gumbodyland or we die; but for them in others' region, it is about one-nigerianess. Their region is a gumbodyland while Lagos, Ibadan and others are a no-man-land where there must be equal opportunity for all.

They lack foresight with their promotion of this bill because their fellow land grabber, Fulani, will surely maximise on this bill and claim all of their ancestral land in near future.

Gumbody: Lagos is not a Yorubaland, We developed Lagos.
Normal human: But why is your region not as developed as Lagos?

Gumbody: "Invest in Lagos at your on perils"
Lagospidia: "#gumbodymustgo. Go back and develop your region too"
Gumbody: "aah, eeh, CNN, NTA, FIFA, NATO, WAEC, JAMB, BBC, HIV, come to our rescue o, they want to kill us"

Gumbody: give us presidency, give us sea ports, give us eloplane, give us elonkopta, give us fufu, give us eba... they hate us, look at me I'm a victim..., look at me I'm marginalised.
Wrong analogies!

The Bill must be passed. We would ensure the Bill is passed for sake of equity and inclusion.

Lagos should not go against this Bill. They must support it.

Why the long text? Did you fail to comprehend the issue? Can I become an Ijaw man simply because I lived there for 10 years? Can a white American become a native American because he's also American? Indigenship is a unique identity based on ancestry.

If you don't understand the above, don't bother quoting me again... No need for unnecessary arguments.
Please refer back to my first reply. I don't have time for these merry-go-round

Buba Marwa, a non indigene as the military administrator of Lagos performed far better than most other yoruba governors in the state. I think the bill will promote unity.

Tinubu isn't even a Lagosian but contributed to Lagos development. So what's wrong in giving non indigene the right to aspire and contest for any political position?

Indigenes have easier access to state universities, state bursaries, state jobs e.t.c

In Anambra, there was a post by Anambra state government where applications are only accepted from Anambra indigenes.
You can't erode that and expect the indigenes to be happy. It would lead to violence.
🤣 why were those guys lying claiming it was about culture when we all know it’s clearly fir economic and political reasons (tribalism) as you’ve clearly put it? If at all this scales through,, there should also be a clause to renounce your previous heritage.

What is actually funny is that no igbo person pushed this bill but you clownish Apcheat minions keep pushing baseless propaganda trying to distract people from the real issues at hand
For every igbo person you see in SW there are thousands who have sworn never to set foot there
So contrary to your propaganda nonsense that every easterner travels with night bus to "lagos"(a whole load of rubbish btw)
They don't really care
So stop the noise pollution abeg
