Question is are the Yoruba people in Lagos up to 2 million of its claimed 6 million population?

Going by dominant location of Yoruba and none indigenes

Or you think Yoruba thugs attacking voters, attacking non indigenes on election matters is not politically motivated ?

Yoruba people are scared to wake up someday and Lagos is gone ..

Reason why dey hate igbos .. and will pick fight with non indigenes

Create thuggery promotes agbero and area boys ,. All Na checkmates..

Power to the people

North 2023
Why is it so difficult for you to detach yourself from making TRIBAL COMMENTS?.. Everytime Igbo this, Yoruba that?

Nigeria is bigger than Igbos & Yorubas.

Purge yourself from this TRIBAL YOKE you placed on yourself.

What do u mean by non indigene.
Lagos is a no man's land.
Is theivenubu,osinbajo,ambode,fashiola from Lagos.
Ss/se will fight afonjas if they continue with these disenfranchisement.

OBa and all titles remain indigenous.. doesn’t mean that indigenes are majority.

As for politics.. it have always been rigged in Lagos state ..

Free and fair..

Yoruba won’t govern Lagos ..

Yoruba might only have 1 senator

Yoruba won’t win any state House

In a free and fair Lagos state election

Even with power and federal might

Yoruba still need louts and thugs to rig and scare people

Wake up helinues

Is just a matter of time .. that fear might turn reality
For the avoidance of doubt, Lagos State is located in the South West of Nigeria, the ancestral REGION of the Yorubas.

That other tribes have a large population in Lagos does not make Lagos a no man's land.

Why not go to Port Harcourt & claim it to be a no man's land?

Please stop creating problem for Ndigbo.

Purge yourself from this TRIBAL YOKE you placed on yourself..it takes you & Ndigbo nowhere

The non indigenes voters in Lagos state are not upmto 500k Yes or No?

Answer that first before doing your as usual derailing
Non indigenes voters in Lagos should be close to 1-2M if we are to sample the entire population. By none indigenes I mean all non-Yorubas. There is a huge population of almost all Nigerian tribes in Lagos but I must say, you can't populate a state more than its aboriginals. Let me give you a solid example.

During the early 20's, Okitikpukpa and neighboring towns in Ondo received high influx of Urhobos due to the palm oil boom, it was so much that every Urhobo family had one or two persons in these eastern territory exploiting oil. But when a census was conducted, the Urhobos were just slightly above 20-30% of the entire population.

Give and take, the non-Yorubas should hover around 30% of the entire population, so the higher the non-indigenous population, the larger their voting Strength

Wrong Lagos belongs to the indigenous people of Lagos.

Indigenes of other SW states including people from Iragbiji are also non-indigenes in Lagos

Lol. Stop being sarcastic. Yes Yorubas are the majority with over 50% of the population, Igbos are nowhere near 40% with the rest put together 10%. The Igbo and the rest percentage is my querry.

Did you comprehend what I write Sha?

There are measures to check balance the influence of non indigenes in the affairs of the state. It's not about population

Btw, If Igbo's are 30-35 % in Lagos state, and almost 10m Igbo's are living outside Nigeria not to talk of Igbo's living in other states in Nigeria, howany Igbo's are now left in SE?
Southeast is 99% igbos...

Lagos is like 35% igbos.. and 25% non indegenes aside igbos... Deltans are so much in lag...

Please understand, that the indegenous people of Lagos State as a whole is less than 10% of it's total population. Meaning of Lagos is truly 20m as it's postulated, 18m of it's population is made of non- indegenes. Therefore, If the postulated figure is taken,there are more than 500k people as non indegenous people in Lagos that can vote.

It's not by population. It's a measure taken by all the states in Nigeria. Infact, it's applicable at any other countries self

@lala @seun @mod
@ bolded......... Of course, nigerian are free to register & contest anywhere in the country however, am just wondering out loud, why is it that this provision in our constitution is only applicable in the sw?

My premise here is, when a yorubaman can contest election in kano or anambra state, maybe then, we will consider a chinedu contesting election in lagos-a yoruba city.

Are you from lagos state. Or since you are yoruba then you are from lagos state. I am from imo state and will never claim Anambra state or any other igbo state.
Which state are you from to be bothered .
Is SW president from lagos state. .

I will keep saying it the SE and SW have no business being in same country. And since we are being forced together. The SE best option is to align with north.

Oga, easy on the gaslighting, na. The SE has always aligned with the fulani north.
In the first republic, Azikwe was busy sucking up to the north.
In the 2nd republic, again the SE was in partnership with the fulanis who decimate them in the 1966 May riot.
