Charly Boy on point here. Nothing spoil sir. Simply buy another small land near where people gather to wait for bus. Then build a small canopy with chairs and refreshments. You’ve got your bus stop back if truly you miss the bus stop.

We specialize on bus stops and bus parks. If I begin to mention Ekene dili Chukwu, Chisco, Young shall grow, Ekeson, Dan dollars, ABC, Ifesinachi, we may not leave here today.

Nwokem my 'yoruba but' bloda, you've been noted!

Your response already exposed your level of maturity and intelligence...age isn't maturity true true, will you claim a tribe you are not to criticize your people? Abi na every Yoruba man be better person? No single Igbo man good...abi? Person mature no mean sey he get sense.

If it looks like a duck, swims like a duck, and quacks like a duck, then it most probably is a duck!
Kedu k'odi??

@Thewesterner, you're right. But it's convenient for them to call Yorubas bigots when we pushback.

Lagos isn't a no man's land

It’s a no man’s Land and will always be, kiss the truth

ProudlyLagos:
don’t you clowns get tired of this stale and weak line? Aside from Lagos, which of your 5plot of tiny potopoto states come close to Ibadan oyo state capital in terms of development and economic viability?

May I remind you that SE is just about the size of oyo state in term of land mass, so it’s fair enough to use that at a comparison with all your 5barren plot of land or is oyo state also developed by the common wealth of all tribe like Lagos like you clowns ignorantly love to justify the failure of your leaders in developing sad yeast?

And may I also remind you if you are a student of history that former capital which was the FCT ended at fadeyi in yaba, while the rest of mainland till badagry was solely under the western region governed by Awolowo and he built the ilupeju and Ikeja industrial estate using cocoa money, so where does this illusion about ibos developing Lagos come from when you can’t even develop your 5plot of tiny land to the standard of Ibadan?

You can continue deluding yourselves with that illusion that Lagos is the only developed part of SW when all standard of development and economic growth point to SW Region which is why it’s boast of massive FDI not just in Lagos, but industrial clusters of Ogun and oyo state and may I also remind you that Ogun is the most industrialised state in Nigeria and most of the land and indigenous people of Lagos today are also ancestral to ogun state like the ijebus, Egbas and aworis so you ignorant clowns should quit comparing oranges with apple because even the pattern of migration from east to west already proves that Sw is far ahead of your 5plot of potopoto caveland

@ Bolded

True that.

Na bus stop dem rename and no be legacy here and no one sabi anyone legacy here

I want any reasonable person to state what positive influence or impact Charly boy had on the youth, adult and entertainment industry of this great country.

Renaming a street in lagos and Nigeria at large is a sign of bitterness and of course, backwardness.
There are numerous streets that could be named after those people.
Renaming a street that was previously named after a figure is a sign of dead brain.

The thing about Charly boy is that he is an institution. The man has been shaking tables while Reno was in diapers. And the lagosians who were non tribal people appreciated his effort and awarded him his just due and recognition. The man was loved like a brother all over Lagos by the Yorubas. When Charly boy leaves his house back then over 1000 bikers will follow him mostly Yoruba bikers.

Fast forward to recent times the man jumped on the bandwagon of the curse of Peter obi. It's a curse because anyone who jumps on that band wagon loses relevance in the country and deteriorates. Now his legacy has deteriorated and is being wiped away and tossed into the cosmic toilet. Another recipient destroyed by the curse of obi.

madridguy:
You only own the building of the house and not the land. By the time Lagosians want back their land you will carry your building. Don't be in hurry bro, the time will come too.

Joker. No go hustle dey dia ee target another person property. It will never happen. I can comfortably forfeit it for Biafra. If we get our republic i can comfortably dash you guys this one and coast home.. where i have a better house already built and a beautiful future ever after. Parasites

BabaO2:
where is the landmark?

That bus stop only became popular because Charly Boy lived there and he was a media personality otherwise it would have just been a normal bus stop like others around it.

There was even a time he erected an effigy of a Harley Davidson motorcycle at the bus stop which further made it stand out

Only a Gen Z would make this type of comment in Nigeria!

If you must know Charly Boy has remained relevant in the entertainment industry and public eye from the 1980s up till now, mention 5 other Nigerians who have been able to achieve that feat!

Aisha Yesufu is Igbo for supporting Peter Obi, I am also Igbo for supporting Peter Obi...no other tribe support Tinubu except the Yorubas, and yes Hausa, Igbo and Yoruba are the only tribes in Nigeria, Are you happy now?...Infact, I am Hausa judging from how I am typing.

If it types like a duck, swims like a duck, and quacks like a duck, then it most probably is an IGBO duck....So, I am Igbo born of Yoruba parents. Happy now? SMH.

There will always be your kind amongst us...una plenty.

Nigeria has really gone to the dogs. So sad.

enemyofprogress:
Cry me a river. We are taking back our land from you people. This is just the beginning.

it was never named charleyboy Busstop, Because of the presence of his famous bike displayed on the building back then, people ascribed the area charley boy area/busstop. The landmark is no longer there. He's no longer relevant there. what is his contribution to deserve a buststop to be named after him?

Go to court.
Go to anambra for your street

Most youths here do not have the faintest idea of how that name of that bus stop came about. Originally, it was called Second Pedro busstop in the eighties and nineties. Charly Boy built his house at that junction and at that period there houses there were far between. His house was very prominent, very exposed and everyone passing would notice the house easily. Added to that was his bike, which he displayed at the front, beautifying the place and drawing the attention of people. His house was the place for movers and shakers of the society, in the military, politics, entertainment and music. When going to that area, it started with Charly boy house. It became popular and then the bus and Okada drivers, residents in area started the name Charly boy bus stop, identifying with Charly boy, who was fighting and defending the people of Bariga, Pedro and Gbagada then. I think eventually the local government recognized the name Charly boy bus stop. He also owns a house in Abuja and it is prominent too, added to several other properties that he has. He’s in the property business. That house became the symbol of Charly boy. I will not be surprised if one person one day decides to revoke his C of O and pull down the house, claiming right of way.

It was too petty of the outgoing local government chairman, who probably was in school when Charly boy started living there. Charly boy has resided in that house for close to 40 years or more. It simply showed insecurity, fear and the clear issue of tribalism ongoing in Nigeria.

How the intend to erase the name in the minds of the people is what we are waiting to see.

Those changes in the street names shows height hatred, tribalism and jealousy that is well known about the people of that region.

They will keep claiming that the Igbos are not respecting their hosts and all other stereotype BS just to paint the Igbos bad.

If the Igbos do not respect their host, how come they were able to live so these long years and helping the host communities and even buying lands in those communities.

The fact that the politician, who out of selfish interest brought about the hated and division is hidden by tagging Igbos aggressive.
That division was easy to grow within that region cos ppl from that region are will known right from time as bn tribalistic.

The fact will remain that the Igbos are the holder of the peaceful co-existence of the people of Nigeria. Remove the Igbos, Nigeria will be a desolate place and uninhabitable. Take it or leave it.
And if Nigeria is to progress beyond what she is today, it must start from the Igbo tribe. The Igbos are the light bearers of this nation.

Let them keep changing street names instead of changing their mindset.
You can change the name of the streets, but the legacy lives in the heart of the people.

Even in the next 10 years, you'll still hear ppl calling the bus stops work their original names.

Igbos are focusing on more tangible progress and not common street names.
We are unstoppable.

If Charly Boy is not deserving of a bus stop to be named after him is it Olamide who promotes cultism that is more deserving?!

Goodvibes007:
The legacy of nudity and immorality. God forbid bad thing.

Op would you like Charly boy to be nudity mentor for any of your family members?

The man na afofun. Which legacy with rubbish wey he dey do as an old man

Imagine renaming a bus-stop to Baddo bus-stop.
Sounds thuggish.

I don't know if you're Igbo or not, but this is great summation. My people would never listen and learn.

However, the tribal hatred is going to affect so many Igbo/Yoruba mixed children in the next decade. Also, Lagos born and bred Igbos, including those who speak Yoruba, would experience issues. But hey, that's oNe nIgErIa for everyone.

My tribe doesn't matter in this issue Sir. I have watched the igbos behavioral pattern from different geopolitical zones due to the nature of my job that is taking me around. I love living in Igbo houses because they build the standard of house I like no matter how remotely the community. I even have my three children given Igbo names by three landlords. Yoruba is even fairer compared to the north. Politically, I think the igbos are still not getting things right. The population of igbos can be a bargain in getting presidency of this country. In the days of Jonathan, the fellow I lived in his house would be bragging about money and business and that political power did not matter. I could not stop wondering about his stupidity. We all saw how MKO business was destroyed by Abacha.
Igbo presidency is very possible if given all it takes. They cry about marginalization. Baba! With almost the same population as Yorubas, Yoruba are not intimidated by Hausa - Fúlàní political gimmicks. I think Igbos should look inwards and restragetize.
What the lagosians are doing today is anti - Yoruba. Honestly, I have not heard of it elsewhere. All I know in Yoruba land is that if you contribute to the development of your host communities you will be rewarded with chieftancy titles, street named after you and the rest of it. Besides, you can grow your business without any fear. This case of Lagos is worrisome.
