This crazy obsession and sense of entitlement by igbos in lagos will get them in serious trouble if care is not taken. You claim you develop communities but you can't develop your own states. You claim you are billionaires but 95% of you are into drugs. Any Nigerian abroad in prison because of illicit drug trafficking is Igbo with 100% guarantee. You sell fake commodities everywhere.

It's not a threat but just a friendly advise. Becareful of what you are about to start because once it starts, only God can stop it. Please for your sakes. Elections will come and go. Peter Obi will likely NOT win but you all are gambling your futures because of him. All politicians are the same. People said more than this about Buhari.

Stfu! Are Igbos no longer Nigerians and are Yorubas not obsessed about oil money from other regions? Tribal bigot like you should be not be allowed to breathe but you are lucky that God is not a man.
Go to other regions and see your Yoruba people enjoying without the native telling them to go back to their region.
Your Yoruba people are migrating to Europe and America wirhout being told to go back to their Yoruba land. Tribalism kill you their.
It is mostly the poor, homeless and miserable creature like you who lives in Makoko slum that always open that your filthy mouth to talk trash about Igbos.
May God punish you this animal and filthy thing should you or your poor family members ever set their feet on another person's land.
Black monkey like you! Fool.....
Why are you idiotic monkey from Nigeria so tribalistic and hateful?
Is it cuz of this tribalism that you idiots do not grow and the white people see you all as monkeys and apes.
Fool........wise up!

I don’t support violence. But when you incite people by poking fingers in their eyes, expect their reaction. They have just seen tiny bit when Obi came to Lagos.

How exactly do they insult the Yoruba leaders? So voting candidates of their choice means attacking Yoruba leaders?

Hausas in Lagos have attacked the Yorubas severally but you cowards have not opened a single thread to talk about it.

In the last 2 decades can you point out a single instance of igbos in Lagos or even any of the SW states attacking the indigenes?
You sound calm and rational. But many aren't.

Don't bother, he will LOSE.

ola, this is not needed honestly. Not needed at all. This is more like a threat. You don't do this. Seun, I think this thread needs to be closed. This is how the genocide of Rwanda started.

Common, what is wrong with everyone?

Are you going to sever ties of inter-marriage? Are you going to murder everyone not bearing a name resembling indigenous names? Common man, you guys should stop all these.

Because Yorubas don’t interfere in the sociopolitical affairs of their hosts. You igbos keep taking advantage of the liberal and political correctness of the Yorubas to interfere in their own sociopolitical affairs which you can’t try in other regions in Nigeria.

You guys are not to be blamed. The Yorubas are the ones to be blamed including Tinubu who started allowing you guys into the politics of Lagos when he was governor.
Fact !!!! This is why I don't like Tinubu

Certainly!

You came in drove to a place, where less than 10% was Lagos colony and the rest Western region both belonging to Yorubas. The next thing only Igbos are shouting is, ’Lagos is no man’s land’, ’a slum’ and they want to dictate what happens there.

These same Igbos ran away from Lagos during June 12 crisis and would not tolerate an Ebonyi person in Anambra or Mbaise person. They are very divisive and I want the ’wokes’ Yorubas to learn from Rivers people that know these people better and already put them in checks. They go to Ghana and other African countries to do these their nonsense but they were immediately checkmated. Only a foolish Oluku would clap when this same people call your land name and refer to you as Yoruba Muslim or Christian.

Their nonsense are tolerated only in Yorubaland and those forming wokes without plan to leave any legacy or land/culture to their children and grandchildren are supporting them. One was even beaten his chest on the other thread that, 'they have to drive Yorubas away from Nigeria; and the mods are seeing those rubbish. Forgetting that you can never help yourself or community by being liberal in the midst of tribal people that surround you in a country like Nigeria. They want to destroy your own and keep their own. They wasted their own federal allocation and question yours.

Everyone is from a place, a tribe and shall remain forever and if you don't want that you and your house are lost forever. Regardless the results of the elections, some stuff needed to be corrected. Hausas have large populations and settlements all over SW, some run to centuries before we even know Igbos, but I have never seen them calling our land 'no man's land' or slum. Likewise, I have never seen Yorubas calling anywhere in the north, east, south 'no man's land'

We think we're wise but no, we're not. All our forefathers understand our foundational problems reasons for independent and republican constructions of the 1960 and 1963. True federalism, this Ironsi suspended just because Igbos dominated everything federal then and imposed unitary system logically. Till today, any Yorubaman thinking he's from Anambra and could do as he likes there is deceiving himself, likewise igboman forming such in Lagos.
Another fact !!! I hope all those "woke" stupid yorubas read this

INEC records have detailed reports, ward by ward, after election results are collated. We will see who did what, by community areas and ethnic enclave. A future harvest awaits those that will sow seeds on Saturday.

You guys are inciting violence through your write ups. Split the country already. Everybody to their region. Lagos is what it is because it is both the economic and technical hub of Nigeria.
When Cohabiting is difficult, It is easier and better to split. Wherever a set of people costittute a large proportion of a settlement, they seek for what will help them or benefit them.

Did the yorubas in PH, Onitsha grouped themselves up into a block, in order to influence the politics of these said places?

Were these yorubas trying to get one of their brothers
into government House in PH?

I can still recollect how some folks did everything they can including gaslighting, just to get us to vote their brother, who actually hate us and called us derogatory names to be governor of our land.

One thing that baffles is that, in spite of their huge numbers in Kano, Kaduna, katsina. Etc these guys never attempt to influence the politics of the aforementioned states in the northern part of the country, which they of course, developed with their Huge taxes.

is rivers state igboland. The truth is that ,you igbos will be the biggest loser with any fight with yorubas. You guys are not the only tribe in Lagos. You people don't like to do anyhow in people's land because you think money is everything. Today you people fear the north cos they once attack your people are lost badly. Yorubas are arguably the most accommodating tribe in Nigeria but you guys want to take their kindness and generosity for weakness. How will you igbos in 2023 just because obi who you people wanted to be president desperately were insulting yorubas for supporting Tinubu and you expect them to clap for you guys. 2027 will be far worse if you people don't know your boundaries. What your people don't tolerate but want others to do.
