We have no business being in same country with SW
ThqnkGod I has dissolved every relationship with people directly from that region
If my people will just make money in those places but never invest in such places and don't even pay tax will be wisdom
Lol. I am always amused by how the word shame seems one that not a single Igbo person understands the meaning of.

Do you inconsiderate and arrogant people appreciate how ludicrous you sound saying the bolded against a people you need for everything,and have flooded their land for your sustenance and opportunities, yet they need you and your barren region for diddly-squat?

Why don't you and you people shun greed and materialism to show you truly believe in the bolded in your post by staying away from the Yorubas and the SW instead of coming here daily to make entitlement noise?

What's the point reminding daily that you should not be in same country with a people yet such redundant noise only mocks your lack of principles since you cannot stay away from those people and their land?

Yoruba don't share any land border with you so no one invited you here, if the Lagos government are doing this, other Yoruba governors should follow the same pattern.
You’re right but let me ask you… when you buy something at the market, did you force the seller to sell to you ?

Did you steal from the seller to own that item ?

If the above is defined and established that you got that item legitimately, will it be fair to you that tomorrow, that same seller that sold you that item(s) yesterday comeback to retrieve/destroy that item he/she sold to you all because he/she became envious and jealous that what he/she sold to you have been turned to gold due to your tenacity and doggedness and also because the seller suddenly feel threatened by your tribe ?

This is what you’re currently supporting… the best way yorubas can actually solve this problem is

- getting all the properties, businesses and investments owned by the igbos, get the details of the owners and buy them from the Igbos with the current dollar rates…

- then they’ll be officially asked by the state government to go back to their respective states.


Failure to go through this process means that yorubas are thiffs that love reaping where they didn’t sow.

Do it and stop making empty threats.

If you boycott Lagos , Lagos gains sanity .
It is gradually getting on. I am only creating awareness so that others will know how to approach xenophobia by boycotting any and everything from the xenophobic state as they did to kaduna years back

They are even claiming a new brand tribe : Lagos IBO.

Their politicians wanted to force indigeneship by way of residence status.

Even this their Biafra noise is all utter rubbish and if paraventure they are forced by other Nigerians to get their dot republic ,do you think they will leave Nigeria talk more of Lagos and return to their shitcreek Biafra ?

All these empty noise of leaving Lagos will never materialise because Lagos is the best thing to happen to them.

If shit gets hot , dem go switch identity sharp sharp to Yoruba and be claiming Lagos Ibo

So you even know him. Donperigon aka magic bishop aka Apcharam aka jewsmustdie aka Godhatejews aka hitlerwasright aka fuckosulgbos aka Godhatelgbos. This is one man using so many username for over 12 years promoting genocide of Jews and white people. And seun and mods pretend that they cannot see anything wrong. 12 years writing thousands of articles and tens of thousands of comments promoting murder of jews

Many Yoruba can't compete maybe we start chasing them out of South East and South south...just that they only sell Agbo, do taxi and AGBERO work and sew clothes ....and others sell their cheap jazz
No need to chase them , if our people can prioritize south east businesses over their businesses, they will leave. Igbos still go to their churches, eat in their eateries buy toiletries made in Lagos, detergents made in Lagos, use fintechs platforms owned by them to pay, play their worthless music everyday (am not talking about Davido, wizkid etc, i mean the very worthless music from south west) everywhere in the east . Bro the problem seems to be igbos
Re: Lagos State Government Subtly Chasing Igbos Out Of Lagos by doncartel:
Nobody can push millions of people out of a land in the 21st century. We Igbos also have our foreign allies like US and Israel. They will definitely intervene in any such situation.

Nobody can use xenophobia to push you out. In some companies they don't sack you because of the implications but they give you technically impossible tasks to do and you find out that the best option is to resign

The Igbo-Yoruba Lagos IS a strategy that useless and incompetent politicians are using to distract Nigerians
How can you think of chasing a man from His house
Nigeria's Problem is Not Yoruba vs Igbos
Nigeria's Problem is Tinubu vs Nigeria

What is this one saying? Lagos what built with the nation wealth and still being built with the nation wealth and bo tribe has the right to tell any Nigerian will to reside or build his house.

What you guys is doing is terrorism and would pay for it in due time .

This one will think his brain is still working.
Saturnalia:
Igbos should think? What exactly are they thinking about?

Shebi they said Lagos is No Man’s Land? They should just go to Alausa and chase out the Governor and his cabinet members.

They should take the laws into their hands since Lagos was developed with the resources they brought from the South East.

Those who refuse to learn from history are likely to repeat past mistakes.

Nnamdi Azikwe and Ojukwu tried to annex Lagos but we all know how that futile exercise ended.

When you demolish a man's residential property, and then go to his business place and destroy it. What do we call that? Hospitality? Accommodating?

You rename and remove all the streets and bus-stops having Igbo names. What do we also call that?

All these because Tinubu lost Lagos to Peter Obi in the last general elections. This thing really pain these people no be small!

Igbos...think! Think!!

Igbos RONU? 😆😆😆
Re: Lagos State Government Subtly Chasing Igbos Out Of Lagos by IgOga(m):
Well Igbos can go back home if they find Lagos unconducive.

Naming a street after you in a foreign land is a privilege. If you abuse that privilege the host if within its right to rename those streets.

If you have to buy a land or build make sure you have the right papers and the right approval. Don't get approval to build a bungalow and go ahead to build a duplex mansion. The government is within its right to demolish the property.

Lagos has been kind to Igbos for many decades and to other tribes for many centuries. Only the Igbos go about boasting they will chase Lagosians out of Lagos and take over.

I think Lagos is beginning to take these threats seriously considering security reports and attitudes over the last 10 years.

Is this how you intend to build a "Southern alliance" to keep Tinubu in power? You want Southern votes but can't even tolerate fellow Southerners in your region. This is despite the fact that projects and appointments are already unfairly skewed in favour of the SW to the detriment of the other South.
nobody needs any fucking southern alliance, nobody needs any Ibo votes.

Go n give your 5% votes to whoever u like, it will b stupidity on d path of any Yoruba person to believe an Ibo man will vote him.

Buhari won without your vote twice
Tinubu won without your votes

So APC have produced 2 president without Ibo votes, so what makes u think they need your votes now?


Nobody needs southern alliance or unity, south west n south south have moved on n they will make things happen.

Tinubu n yorubas will support a south south person to b VP to a northerner in 2031

Everyone will not leave

A working sea port in the niger delta and a river port in the south east is all that is needed . Please be patient while this is being sorted out

A seaport is no reason for migration

The biggest seaport in the UK is in Felixstowe
It does more containers than the whole of Nigeria its population is 30000

Most people in the UK Have no business going there

So don't use port as excuse

Nigeria still brings in thousands of containers through Lome
E.g Dangote brought in 150000 containers when building refinery via Lome

Why is the whole of Burkina Faso and Niger not moving to Lome

The truth is hopelessness in the SE
Erosion ravaged forsaken land

Wake up from your dreams, the federal government vows to terminate any Igbo, Yoruba or Hausa nation.
One Nigeria has been cleared, occupy any region you like, the federal government said.
