One of the first things President Trump did after inauguration was change the name Gulf of Mexico to Gulf of America. He didn't stop at that, he had proposed fencing America against Mexicans and has been hunting them like animals in his administration. Of course they have been a nuisance. Mostly involved in drugs and all kinds of crimes.
And Nigerians live permanently in America either as US citizens, or are struggling to become Americans? What an irony? People of the land of “birthright” hold citizenships of various countries in Europe, Canada, Australia, and New Zealand. Now that Trump is insisting that immigrants are deported, people of the land of birthright are either hiding or prayer seriously not be caught carelessly.

While you claim your birthright, why not insist that the President is only the President of the land of your birthright and not the President of the whole of Nigeria? Is that not hypocrisy please?

Great.. take back what rightfully belongs to Yoruba people.
O to ge!

They should write IGP to warn Ohaneze to stop interfering in Yorubaland affairs because they are not natives of Yorubaland..
Yorubas share no ties, links or boundaries with the Igbos, so they should stay off our affairs.
A Yoruba person from Togo or Benin Republic has more rights in Lagos and South West than an Igbo that crossed the river Niger into South West.

How about all natural resources producing communities take control of all their oil/gas.
And insist of employment for their people only?
A lot of people give excuses for tribalism.
In every big city , most streets are named after some foreigners.
Just imagine if these people are the one sustaining the country through oil/gas? They will make people beg for survival.
Lagos state is the smallest state in Nigeria and imagine how they are behaving.

What tantrum? An assured people, the Yorubas, who are now moving to put in their place you lot, Mosquitoes who see themselves as Butterflies, are throwing tantrums how?

Forget the brainwashing lies drummed into your head from birth. Yorubas are firmly in charge of Lagos and her most profitable sectors.

Look at the fast food sector in Lagos for example. Completely and totally dominated by Yorubas. Yet what kind of dominance is una own if not the make-belief, emptily-braggart and self-delusional kind?

Check the thread out below for proof. We can do other sectors too if you want. Property development, entertainment, IT, Graphic design, architecture, cinematography/film-making, the arts sales scene and even designer fashion etc, etc, etc.

In the end, empty barrels and insecure folks make the most noise. Never those succeeding and domination factually and quietly.

Wow! All these for an ogun/ekiti/oyo/osun man to prove that yorubas own Lagos. You think your major competitors are interested in back and forth argument of ownership of your so called Lagos? When you start to argue with non-indigenes, you show that maybe there is this fear that you aren’t really in control. You cannot see Enugu trying to assert dominance or proving to own ownership of Enugu to non-indigenes. But every time you lots are on the news having sleepless nights trying to prove that you own Lagos, a state that everyone knows and accepts that it is a Yoruba state 😁

Lol. Whatever floats your boat. You people are the personification of the adage "a dog destined to be lost does not hear the Hunter's Whistle".

Your history is littered with many tragic and disgraceful losses because you are a vainglorious people, bragging impotently to the end, on your road to perdition.

We will see where Igbos future in the SW will be like. No need to say more.

Again you miss the point… and you have obviously concluded that I am Igbo 😂… Don’t even go the part of history, as just as recent as 300 yrs ago under your noses without any fight illorin emirate absorbed indigenous yorubas and subjugated them under their leadership of which they are indirectly under the leadership of the caliphate 😂…to even talk about Igbos future in SW shows you guys have lost it. What is really your fears, is it the population of the Igbos in Lagos or that you don’t want them contesting or that you are threatened by the influx of their investments in Lagos. With or without the facts of the above listed, I am pretty sure the Igbos/major economic competitors don’t really see things the way your type do and are not really interested in the competition of who owns and who doesn’t own Lagos. We accept and know that this is a Yoruba state, but i think you guys are loosing it by trying to prove you own your state.

You know that you are not being truthful wink

If there's no visitor status, there wouldn't have been "oso Abiola " when Igbos flee Lagos en masse during our June 12, 1993 presidential election result annulment struggle on the assumption that it was all over for the Yoruba.

Yoruba fought valiantly to defend their land and overcame those who wanted to destroy Lagos and Yorubaland. Igbo returned later to meet a safer and prosperous Lagos.

Even till date, Igbo people know that they are on a visit and you always tell your people back home.

You will pack your bags and leave Yorubaland again, God forbid, anything untoward happens. Quit the hypocrisy.
Meaning one Nigeria Yorubas do chant is lies and deceit?

Chai!!

No wonder Tinubu said he doesn't believe in one Nigeria.
No be some people become Nigeria?

You can always be a Nigeria but will never be a Yoruba, Awusa or Igbo.

We’re one Nigeria but not same ethnic group and don’t have same culture.

Respect people in their land if you want peace

Don't mind them. They are the only people who will go to South Africa to drag Cape Town and Joburg with South Africans.

Ditto Ghana where some clown crowns himself King of Igbos in Ghana and then sets sight on establishing a Ghana "Settlement" in the nation.

They are a joke.
Omo, di thing tire me o!
Just yesterday, i watched a video of the same people fighting in Vietnam . I can hear one of them shouting, " come and shoot us, na".

When 1,2,3,4,5,6 people are saying exactly the same thing about you THEN, I believe it's time to introspect.
