You think you can survive it economically when everyone leaves the SW for only the Yorubas? You think the prosperity Lagos is enjoying today is solely by the input of Yorubas? Okay continue!
Dangote is still in Business and is growing

Go and ask his people what they are doing right that ipob has taught you to do wrongly

You have picked the wrong SW generation to heap your vile daily insults upon

You will be shown that it was a Masterstroke of the Almighty's Brilliance that made him place River Niger to separate both you and Yorubaland, and we will even throw you a big Owanbe sendoff party on top to bid you goodbye

How dare you open your foul mouth to tell SW indigenes to quit and vacate any part of their God Almighty covenanted Ancestral homeland for you!!
Who you be?!!!

They have not even started dealing with.you yet and you are already wailing to the UN

What you are seeing and wailing over is not up to 5% of what is heading towards you.
Truly!!

This message is specifically for SW haters and ipob who for selfish greed want to drag and balkanise the SW homeland that gave their people succour and not for any of those who love and respect SW

Alaba rago market dominated by hausa traders was demolished recently. Oworoshoki was demolished recently dominated by Yorubas. But to you they are targeting igbos lol

Building codes wound you there! grin grin

All because Tinubu lost to Peter Obi in his own State, thereby resulting in all these hate towards the Igbos.

Is it the Igbos' fault that you presented a known drug lord as your best presidential material while they brought out an incorruptible man as their best?
Oga say incorruptible man grin

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 us hopelessness in the SE
Erosion ravaged forsaken land
The maritime ports is the major reason why most igbos came to Lagos, the concentration of consular houses, internationally airports and other federal government agencies made Igbos flock to Lagos when it was the federal capital and afterwards, notice how there are very few igbos in ekiti, kwara, osun than there are igbos in Kano, kaduna , jos. Igbos prefer settling in the north and niger delta than in the south west

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
I have warned you severally to stop dragging SS into your madness.

And no one is going to ship goods into that your onithsa port.

Enugu has an international airport.

All the countries now have consular offices in Abuja.

Sea ports are open across the Niger Delta

You have no excuse to say Lagos is monopolizing anything henceforth.

You still don't get it. Was it not Tinubu that was relocating vital CBN , NCC business offices to Lagos sometime at the beginning of his tenure, offices that aretoo vitalto banks and telcos. This will make igbos keep comingbacktoLagos. Is it not the same Tinubu government that has been delaying the release of Nnamdi Kanu that has even won a case against unlawful deportation in Kenya, Nnamdi Kanu will hasten Biafra and free igbos from Lagos issues. An independent Biafra means no igbo will be found in any of the southwest states

No they come because the SE Is barren and desolate
There are a lot more Iboes than when the capital was in Lagos State
No doubt Lagos state has had governorship continuity and has outperformed others since 1999 way better now than when it hosted capital
Those iboes doing olosho came for seaport?
Seaport took them to Ghana to do olosho?
Iboes are all over the South West stop lying to yourself
There are Iboes growing cassava and making garri in Ekiti
God has forsaken their land
Is it seaport that makes Nigerians Japa across desert to Libya?

Iboes are leaving their land in droves because of hopelessness
The same thing applies to Nigerians that Japa to other countries t

Hopelessness

I really wish I can access the whole speakers of Yorubaland house of assemblies for a law that will push fake items away from our region. If the law is pass, believe me within 6 months fake items will reduce by 70% and our economy will be on the path of growth.
Your people are even finding it hard to afford the fake items talk more of the genuine ones

So because Tinubu want to remain in power millions of Yoruba should lost their lives to your brothers fake food items, fake medicines, fake appliances, fake tyre, fake break pad to mention few. If Tinubu will have to return to his house for Yoruba land to be free from baby factories, fake and expired items, disrespect to our women and Obas let him come back.
This is the best reply in history of Nairaland .
I hope the adamumu you responded to heard you clearly .

The last time I checked, Lagos is part of Nigeria; and I have the constitutional right to live in any part of Nigeria - including Lagos
It is also part of the SW region, and not other region.

Even if you grant them Biafra today, Ibos will still not leave Lagos.

Lagos that has the highest concentration of Ibos than even in any of the SE states?

Lagos is the only place on earth with the highest population of Ibos even more than in each of their states in the SE.
That is an obvious lie! There are actually more Yorubas who move to Lagos than Igbos.

Why lie so brazenly?

IgOga:
Well Igbos can go back home if they find Lagos unconducive.
t 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.
Another lie. No prominent or well renowned Igbo person has stated such.

So much hatred, but interesting thread anyway. At least, it teaches younger ones the true meaning of Nigeria.

I've told you, your post always carry fire, even the heat almost choke me here.

Kettykin is just deceiving his brothers, ask him how many containers he has brought to Nigeria this year through Lagos Port.

Lol
Eegboes just dey use port guard body

Ethiopia is Landlocked
It is reliant on Djibouti for port imports

GDP $190 billion

Ethiopia has over 100 million people
They have not moved to Djibouti

How many people even know where Djibouti is on a map?

Even the container thing this is a business that Nigerians left for them

I will tell you why

In Yoruba land men do not sit in shops to trade

Spiritually that is women's work
The major traders are Hausas but unfortunately for them they did not embrace English on the same scale as Eegboes and were not able to go into it as small scale traders LIKE Eegboes

Only big time traders using government patronage like Dangote and some others from Kano survive
Fulani are not traders

So Eegboes have a very big market , for imports Nigeria, handed to them with little competition and they start feeling special

When you compare them to those ethnicities around the world that are traders like Indians , Lebanese or even Hausa you see they are not that great traders
They are just lucky to have little competition in petty imports

What do I mean

There is no major Eegboe business that you can point to that he will say my grandfather started this business

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!!

See your victimization mentality, it is because of igbos Tinubu lost Lagos State?

Quite obvious you deserve whatever u wished upon yourself.

Since u have publicly admitted that it is because of your tribe that President Tinubu lost Lagos state, quietly accept the repercussions of your actions.

Whilst you are wrong to say Ndigbo are being chased out of Lagos, it isn't a bad thing for people (not just Ndigbo) to move out of Lagos as it is congested and there are lots of other places that could do with more investments, both people and finance.

Plus, you really need to stop crying over street naming. You provoked it because of your need to abuse and insult anyone that didn't think Peter Obí was a Saint.
