CoronaVirusPro:Yes, but unfortunately you can hardly see Yoruba in Amara or Aba, reason be that they don't travel, and hate going to another man's land especially where Yoruba language is not widely spoken they always feel lost and unsafe. But Igbos are everywhere in Lagos, speaking even Yoruba language that you can hardly tell they aren't Yoruba, so yes they deserve political office in Lagos. Thank you. |

So because you are given enabling environment to enjoy your business, the way to thank your host is by demanding to rule over them? I want peace but no one wants to be taken for a ride . |

[quote author=Christistruth03 post=136083649][/quote]You are yet to answer my questions, who were those who invaded the oba palace and destroyed properties, chased out lagosians from their home? Those arrested, what ethnicity were they from? We don't need video of where an igbo asked you to burn your family house or something, we need video of where igbo were destroying properties, invaded the palace and chased lagosians out of Lagos..... So if I ask you to kill your family, you will go ahead with such act and say I was the one who did it? |

Irony1:You surely must have mistaken me for one of those Yoruba Buts and GenZs that you conquered with propaganda and gaslighting, hence your "hatred" tag. However, if you had been a little more observant, you will know that you're responding to someone who knows the Igbo man very well because as you can see, you did everything I predicted in my previous reply, including sneaking Tinubu in! Now, to you mentioning conversation. Sorry to disappoint you, but I didn't quote you because I wanted to have a conversation with you. I quoted you because I was trying to understand the colour of your delusion while projecting your hypocrisy for the whole world to see. Like, you're funny ooo. You mean I should be conversing with someone so classless as to resort to shameless and bold faced lies as seen in the first and second paragraph of this reply that I'm quoting, just because they want to use deception to achieve their long time takeover agenda? Imagine saying "no igbo man..." I mean, there are millions of Igbo men in Nigeria. How many of them do you have control over their actions and how many can you vouch for? You see, I have always maintained that Igbos and Fulani should be sharing the same country because they both share the same archaic expanionist mindset and suprematicist ideology. In 2025 when other ethnicities are busy seeking a way forward for themselves individually and collectively, the Igbo man is declaring "Ikwerre are Igbos" "Anioma is Igbo land" while trying to use deception to take over in Lagos. |

Tychost:Like, I don't understand. They don't rate others at all, and I think it stems from how they see everyone else either as a rival, enemy, or their subject. They have never seen other Nigerians as fellow country men otherwise they won't feel they have monopoly to something they would condemn others for. |

Smartcitizen:Yorubas are not economic migrants like your people but we have a solid number of Yorubas in the SE running their businesses diligently. We have businesses such as... FCMB WEMA GTB CHICKEN REPUBLIC. THE BIGGEST MALL IN THE SOUTH EAST....POLO MALL. TRIBUNE PUNCH. GLO The WINNERS,MOUNTAIN OF FIRE ETC... And a host of others. We have Yoruba progressive churches all over the SE,helping to alleviate their spiritual,financial and physical tribulations. We also control the building material markets all over Nigeria. Both in the North and South,Yorubas doing these businesses have been assimilated.Some speak fluent Hausas and Igbos that you would not believe they are Yorubas. |

sammiewrite:How are they using deception to take over Lagos? None of you have answer this question. In the first place we buy lands, we have never taken anyone's land. No igbo man has forcefully taken your property or your women. Again I say it that politics is local because the yoruba still make up majority of the voting population in Lagos. So if an igbo man who was born in let's say Ojo local government and has lived his life there and understands the needs of the place and the locals love him and take him as one of their own. So if he contests and wins that means he wants to take over Lagos. I think it is high time most of you do other meaningful things in life. |

Hotfreeze:I never said she contested in Ondo stop twisting information. See why she lost the nomination to contest for senate under APC in Imo. 1. Alleged Political Intimidation and Hijacking of the Process - Betty Akeredolu accused Imo State Governor Hope Uzodinma and APC leaders of attempting to impose a consensus candidate, bypassing a fair primary election. She claimed that aspirants were pressured to step down for a preferred candidate, which she vehemently opposed . - She protested at the APC secretariat in Owerri, insisting on a delegate election rather than a "kangaroo consensus," but was reportedly chased out by thugs and security agents . 2. Dispute Over Delegate Lists and Electoral Fraud - Akeredolu alleged that the delegate lists were hidden from her and other aspirants, making a transparent election impossible. She argued that the process was manipulated to favor a specific candidate without actual voting . - She stated,"They called us and asked us to step down for one unpopular aspirant... You can’t write figures and declare somebody winner when there was no election" . 3. Gender and Outsider Dynamics** - Despite being an Owerri indigene (from Emeabiam), some critics questioned her legitimacy as a contender because she is married to the Ondo State governor and had spent much of her political career outside Imo . - Her strong-willed approach and refusal to back down were seen as defiance against the male-dominated political establishment in Imo, further isolating her. 4. Internal Party Politics and Uzodinma’s Influence** - Governor Uzodinma was accused of orchestrating the primary to ensure his preferred candidate won. Betty directly confronted him, claiming he hijacked the process to control the senatorial seat . - The APC state chapter denied her claims, stating that aspirants "with no chance" were merely advised to step down, but her camp insisted this was a cover for imposition . I highlighted one part which buttresses the fact that politics is local. You can only vote for someone who has always been on ground and understand the needs and complexities of the place he or she is representing. No where in the reason Betty was refused nomination indicated that it was because she married a yoruba person. You people should slow down with these twisting of facts. |

ProudlyLagos:I said it in context that of she decided to contest in Ondo will you have allowed her? Also see the below reasons why she lost nomination under APC and none pointed out to her marrying a Yoruba man, but due to the fact that he political career had been outside Imo. 1. Alleged Political Intimidation and Hijacking of the Process - Betty Akeredolu accused Imo State Governor Hope Uzodinma and APC leaders of attempting to impose a consensus candidate, bypassing a fair primary election. She claimed that aspirants were pressured to step down for a preferred candidate, which she vehemently opposed . - She protested at the APC secretariat in Owerri, insisting on a delegate election rather than a "kangaroo consensus," but was reportedly chased out by thugs and security agents . 2.

She argued that the process was manipulated to favor a specific candidate without actual voting . - She stated, "They called us and asked us to step down for one unpopular aspirant... You can’t write figures and declare somebody winner when there was no election" --- 3.

Christistruth03:Even from Ojukwu's angle. Her Husband is dead so she is not from Anambra, if she is to contest she should remarry an Anambra and contest under Anambra. |

Tychost:Bros there is no entitlement here. Politics is local amd so if you have an igbo man who was born and grew up in Agege and the local love him and accept and he is fully assimilated and speaks fluent Yoruba. Are you implying that he cannot contest for councillor? |
Throwback:You Have To Be A Cultist To Hold Political Position -Taribo West • Ikpeazu: Igbos Deserve Shot At Presidency, We Understand Nigeria Better • 3 Nigerians Who Are Not Yoruba But Currently Holding Political Offices In Lagos • 2 • 3 • 4

don’t mind those confused people, they insult the Yorubas and label them all derogatory names but still won’t let Yorubaland breathe…….they will always continue to be at our mercy
that’s how primitive tribalism as eaten deep into ibo DNA
