A statement made by Rev. E.S Emeka, Senior Pastor of Throne of Eliyahs International Ministries, has sparked widespread debate on social media after he claimed that God would soon compensate the Igbo people by making an Igbo man the governor of Lagos State.

The clergyman made the remarks during a sermon delivered to his congregation, as captured in a viral video circulating online.

Many expressed anger and confusion over the pastor’s assertion, questioning why the Igbo community would be concerned with political leadership in Yorubaland. The video has continued to trend, drawing mixed reactions from across Nigeria’s ethnic and political spectrum. While some viewed the statement as a prophetic declaration, others interpreted it as a provocative claim that could stoke ethnic tensions. Rev. Emeka has not issued any further clarification or response to the criticism as of the time of reporting. See the video below:

Going forward any council chairman in any of the LG in Lagos that allowed any of them to win any elective position in their. LG will be removed.

Part of their primary role as council chairman should be to checkmate parasites
Our politicians and leaders must begin to make overt and open statements on this issue clarifying that they must return to their own homeland. As o say this I have great friends and in-laws from that tribe but we are talking about land and our cultural identity and sovereignty of the Yoruba people.

Which resources do you guys bring to the table?

The economic net negative zone that is dependent solely on federal handouts .

Pls tell us what you contributed against what you got from federal handouts?
I'd engage you but for my decision to no longer engage unintelligent discuss.

First, tell us what cashable resources Yoruba brings to the Nigeria table. You and I know your cocoa plantations are mere relics of the past now, so, what else?. Let's start from there.

They want to turn things around for igbos in Lagos the way they have turned things around for theirselves in the east.
Quote unbelievable! They can’t turn thing around for themselves in their own homeland but they want to do it in Yorubaland. Wow! This is beyond understanding.

Out of the mouth, the abundance of the heart speaks.

So Lagos is now your promised land by divine right from God to alleviate you Ibos above the owners of the land.

This thing you guys are doing with your untrained and mannerless mouths will backfire on you all.

The pogroms in the north did not just start one day.

Northerners had been bearing your collective insults on them for years prior to the coup of Jan 15.

Even afterthe coup,your people increased the insults and baragging on the mourning northerners.

Look what the result of that collective stupidity and how no one extended a shred of sympathy to you.


Yorubas will not go the way of the north but they will use every legal means to frustrate you back to your place as a migrant economic settler that you are.

Imagine a major tribe misbehaving everywhere.
This is the koko and unfortunately a double edged sword.
On one hand, the North knows and have perfected ways to checkmate them...by culling their herd every decade or so.. this has made the Igbos sit up and comport themselves in Hausaland.Since then, Hausawa hasn't had any more upstarts with them claiming land and political power.
On the other hand, the SW isn't cut out for ethic cleansing of that nature. It's not that it can't be done, simply goes against the Yoruba ethos (which Igbo term cowardice)and thus lies the rub.
The igbos shortly after the war realized that Yoruba wasn't cut from the same cloth with Hausawa in respect to dealing decisively with them(culling )and they took full advantage of the somewhat placid and accommodating nature of the Yoruba as their kind are wont to do.
Now it appears that accommodating nature has finally been eroded and teeth are bared.
I sincerely hope and pray we don't go the Hausawa way with them..
They won't survive it.

Prior to the civil war, the north had the highest concentration of Ibos .

After the pogroms and war, the IBO population never recovered .

Outside the north, the present SS also had the second largest population of Ibo settlers.

Their numbers in the SS also never recovered owing to the atrocities committed by Biafran soldiers and ibo civilians on SS indigenes during the occupation of their land in both Biafra and occupied Midwest.

The bad blood between SS and ibos is still very fresh and so Ibos did not return back .

The only natural place was western Nigeria or Ghana.

The Ghanaians foresaw this great exodus and began a major deportation of all Nigerians to forestall Ibos moving into their country.

Yoruba land then remained the only option.

Now here is the real kicker.

If Gowon had done what is expected and dragged all those biafran war criminals to a Nuremberg styled trial and had all the atrocities thy committed on SS minority people known to the world , I don't think Yorubas would have been accommodating the Ibos in their midst and all this rubbish talk of ibo victimhood that only reinforces another round of identical Biafriasm madness won't be repeating itself today.

I tell any of them who vehemently denies the near genocide and human rights violation their biafran 'heroes' committed on SS minorities to see how IPOB lunatics have no problem raping, murdering and cannibalizing their own people in the SE and ask if such fate won't be far worse on SS people if same IPOB had the might to occupy the entire SS.

Truth is, they were actually very closer to having a Gov in Lagos pre 2022 and might prolly have achieved that later, as most Yorubas might not even think deeply about it, but you see wetin don dey zup since 2023, Bro, its going to take divine intervention and deliberate anni-hilation of half of Yorubas in Lagos, to make that happen.

As far as Lagos still has more SW states around it than SE states and the influx of other SW state people continues, coupled with recent event that wont ever leave peoples memories, the chances are almost nonexistent

If you don’t want it to be possible you can ask your Senators and reps to do the needful with the constitution but for now it is very possible for a non Yoruba to be governor of lagos .
A constitutional amendment is coming soon. The easterner are abusing the residency provisions and as a result restrictions and safeguards must be introduced before we end up in chaos and much worse Rwanda.

We are all Nigerians but everybody have their homeland

Ibo actually do not need to be Governor of Lagos in order to be relevant. They have a bigger fish to fry.

Indeed. Image a pastor based far away In Aba coveting political take-over of Lagos State by Igbos as "compensation".

Meanwhile, it is now clear the guys is a glorified scammer who "focuses on financial freedom and spiritual growth through intercessory prayer and worship".

Probably salivating thinking how he would cash in if he had a branch in Lagos considering the population there. These people are something else.

We are calling on Donald Trump to help us negotiate ceasefire between Igbos and Yorubas who are now sharing one trouser in Lagos state.

He should act fast because one of the tribes is already saying that what happened in 1966 was like a child’s play compared to what they are planning this time around.

If Trump can convince them to compensate us for our investments in Lagos which are worth over $2 trillion, then we can establish somewhere else. But because they don’t have the $2 trillion, they are now talking about 1966.

Plausible claim actually and a precise word this glorified conman ,parading as a Pastor, used confirms your explanation.

Imagine saying God will "compensate" Igbos by putting one of them in charge of the wealthiest State in Nigeria?

Compensation for what exactly? The scammer, and as is usual with all of them, is now trying to hoodwink his bigoted audience that somehow others owe Igbos compensation which will come in the form of political leadership of Lagos.

This is the sort of rubbish Kanu and Ekpa used to preach to their besotted congregations of perpetual 'victims'. I.e the crap that other Nigerians wronged Igbos and now owe them something.

Even Awo shares some blame for this ibo entitlement mindset.

Its on record that Awo was saving their share of Federal allocaatins.

Despite not one kobo coming from them during the entire war.

All the 3yr allocation accrued during the war was then given tothem.

People that were suppose to pay war reparations till 2100 AD were given free money.

Ever since then they have been throwing tantrums demanding more and more from the federal purse while contributing next to zilch.
