TINUBU IS A FRAUD THAT COULD NOT WIN FCT, HIS STATE OF ORIGIN OSUN AND STATE OF RESIDENCE LAGOS.
He could not won these places you mentioned even being a fraud yet he won other places that are not his home state or residence and at the end of the day he won the election.

Igbo's have and would always defend themselves anywhere and anytime.

The hatred was started by the Yorubas and Igbos haven't done a thing to you guys. They only voted for their choice as the constitution demanded of them.

You are asking jamb questions. You are dragging people's lands with them calling it a no man's land just because they are too hospitable and tolerating . You increased in numbers and turned to something else on their land. Can you allow such in southeast ?
lexy2014:
why only Lagos?

is Lagos the only state in the SW?

are all yorubas from Lagos state?

are you from Lagos state?

You are ignorant.Igbos are many in Lagos and they campaign with religious sentiment with obi and other tribes fell for it in Lagos state. He failed wofefully in the core north cos they retaliated by not voting him because of his attack on Muslim. Sheriff didn't put the statement rightly but a deep thinker will understand what he means. Obi will still fail again cos most Christians from other region except south east will not be on panic mode again.
Oga deep thinker. Na only you understand English.

I Too KNOW!

Boko haram kingpin talk, you enter him mind know wetin he really mean.

Chochocho without saying anything.

Igbos constitute 40% of Lagos population and that make them a majority, the remaining 60% is divided among other tribes Hausa, Ijaw, etc, with Yorubas struggling to grab 45% even Egun, Awori doesn’t see theirselves as full Yorubas, if not for intimidation and violence against Igbos in elections, Igbos will almost all senate and house of rep seat in Lagos.

This is an open secret and reason why one particular section of this country want Igbos to bend for them before they can have peace in Lagos, one Nigeria is a scam, Obi it's better to deputize Atiku and take over power after his tenure, there's nothing like Southern presidential turn, how can Igbos take over your land when we share no boarder with each other.
when you listen to most of this our political class talk, one would see why the nation is running aground

Did that Fuul count Peter obi vote in Lagos nd all the thumb print dna on paper reflected IGBO
is it not pure fuulishness to allude all the vote Peter obi got in Lagos came from IGbo and some empty heads here are already jumping on the thrash

these people just open mouth and talk jargon because they see Nigerians as gullible

This whole tribalism stuff is sickening
All politics is tribal. The problem with the Nigerian is he copies everything foreign. He gets a western education and thinks he is a westerner because his education has not taught him to think or to have self respect. His education is designed to only view himself as successful the more he emulates the white man. The people you are copying don’t have different tribe but even then they have their own tribal politics. In America, there is the Jewish vote, the black vote, the Christian vote, the migrant vote, the Latino vote. The gay vote etc etc etc. This is no different from the Muslim vote, the Ibo vote, Christian vote, yoruba vote, Northern Christian vote, Northern Muslim vote etc etc.

Let us wake up to our realities and design a system that recognizes our differences instead of trying to force ourselves into a falsehood that only creates friction.
Some can’t be playing politics of nationalism best candidate or ideology while others gaslight or sneakily play tribal politics. Let’s all play tribal politics so we all know where we stand. Better for us to play tribal politics and make tribal alliances of scratch my back I scratch yours than to deceive ourselves into playing ideological politics while some sneak up and play 95% tribal politics.

Ironically, our golden years a period where Nigeria had television before a country like France was based on tribal politics!

If election is conducted in one million times in Lagos with Obi and Tunubu, on ballot, Obi will win him in all. Lagosians are more liberal and enlightened.

This statement of Ali Modu Sheriff is wrong.. Igbos are not more than Hausas in Lagos.

From my evidence-based research, it turns out Southerners from other States outside South West are collectively referred to as Igbos, I mean those from Rivers, Akwa-Ibom, Cross Rivers etc.
Most Yorubas can't even tell which is which until they reveal their ethnic group.

The failure of leadership in Yorubaland caused the outcome of 2023 presidential elections in Lagos. It was still same failure of leadership that made a certain group attack Lagos under guise of EndSars. The moment Yorubas rose up, they fled back to their holes.

How Yoruba leaders kept quiet and allowed Obi perpetrate his religious bigotry and campaign of calumny in Yorubaland saddens me till tomorrow. Ahh, Yorubas got me heartbroken beyond words.
A large chunk of our people went to the polls and voted blindly for a failure with no achievements whatsoever to his name because of what fake pastors said on their pulpits.
We have seen how the one with so much achievement, and the builder of Lagos has destroyed the country in less than 2 years.

Quit being a bigot, otherwise it will consume you.

So igbos plenty pass Yoruba for Lagos.

Many people go die of high BP before 2027 because of Peter obi .
All the mekunnuns among the Yorubas have been sent out of Lagos to neighboring towns in Ogun State. Even the few ones left have been "Igbonised"
Now tell me how Obi no go win Lagos?

It looks more like u that can not read , he said there are more igbos than Yoruba in lagos and you are so so scared of him that rather then disabuse that you turned on the Igbo because of the their current weakened state in Nigeria , one on one can u stand up to a typical Igbo man ?

So more Igbos in Lagos? Abuja, Jos and more..

A good product remains a good product irrespective of tribes and ethnicity.
Obi won those states not just on Igbo population in those states alone but also on religion ground (Christianity), remember Tinubu/Shetima was blackmailed as AntiChristian team. He also reaped from youth protest of End SARS.
Meaning he got those votes based on tribal, religious and security sentiments.

He's saying nonsense. He is APC and he said that so that the many Yorubas who voted for obi in 2023 will not vote for him next time. They used similar tactics during the Guber elections in 2023 in Lagos

as long as democracy is the way it is in the country, tribalism will always prevail, as it is a tool used by the rulers to divide the masses and win elections. The masses are poor and uneducated so they don’t know any better.

Amodu Sheriff's name is synanimous with Boko Haram insurgency. It was during his regime as Governor of Borno state Boko Haram and criminal activities became rife in the state.

He is a religious bigot whose understanding of Islam is predicated on the doctrine of supporter of APC philosophy.

His posturing on Igbos being more in Lagos than other ethnic groups is revisionism. He could speak better than this outlandish outpourings.

He should be ignored with his support for Boko Haram.
