All I can see in his statement,is of a people who are insecured,we are all witnesses to the billions of dollars of Nigerian money Tinubu is channeling to Lagos state,far above the entire money marked out for some regions,in few years they Yorubas will still claim that those projects were done by them and not FG.
The posters above claimed they built Lagos which was a former capital of Nigeria,just like Abuja is now.Probably in few years time the Gwari man will tell us how he built Abuja.
I keep asking Yorubas that usually twist history to suit their narratives,why not build another Yoruba state,may be Ekiti,Osun,Ondo etc since you built Lagos,why are you afraid to build other states.

Stupid

The bolded is what we have been telling igbós for eons. Yoruba culture is totally different from igbós. Yorubas are one. It's igbós that always try to divide them by flying the flags of 'yoruba-christian vs yoruba moslems' 'lagos yoruba vs ekiti yoruba vs ibadan yorubas' etc.

That division that's entailed in alaigbo is what they are projecting on others.

Common sense demands that when u - as a stranger - get to a foreign land, you keep your mouth shut and don't meddle with their affairs, but ndigbos say no. And this is why igbós will continue to have problems in every locality they find themselves.

Moveittothem:
So, it's okay for someone from Ekiti state to become a governor in Lagos state, but someone from Lagos state can't be a governor in Ekiti State?

This confirms that Lagos is truly a no-mans-land, albeit, for yoruba people.

Fair enough.

😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂







Indirectly passing information to my



BROTHERS

When I see my fellow Igbos having this kind of arguments I feel so ashamed.
Lagos is a Yoruba Land, whether it was developed by Igbos or not.
Let's face our region and make it a wonder.

What is in Lagos that we can't replicate in the east, if we are ready.
It's really shameful.

Wahabfuture:
I’m a Yoruba Muslim and He’s right, why can’t my people go and develop those mentioned states? Stop supporting evil

Baba Ijebu Mushin now changing story, so no indigenous Lagosians.

Irony1:
That one is a lie. Cam a lagosian go and assume control in Ekiti? Make una slow down naaa allow the real indigenous Lagosians to breathe.

—Ijaws won’t complain
—Hausa won’t be sad
—Nupe won’t be mard
—Efik won’t feel depressed
—Edo won’t cry
—Remaiming ethic group in Nigeria - 1 won’t be angry.

It is only one specific people that will have panic attack because of this short statement.

One of them is spotted up there 👆

Abuja is Hausa united state

God bless YORUBALAND. God bless Nigeria.


Lagos.

Ogun.

Oyo.

Ekiti.

Ondo.

Osun.

If you put it that way, yes, but 'no man's land' FOR YORUBAS, not for igbós.

Now we are agreeing at something.
Thank God!
Pheww!

Justiceleague1:
He'virtually saying it's a no mans land 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣


But sha,o if Lagos is yaraba united states,what is iragbiji, Ogbomosho, Oshogbo,etc

Every other tribe in nigeria knows this apart from igbós!
It's not rocket science nau.

Hahaha Igbos have stake in Lagos so you can call it complain if you like but it won't stop Igbos from buying your family house and renovating it while they send your parents back to Osun

This is a grand plot spearheaded by non indigenous Lagos Yoruba for them to dominate indigenous Lagos Yoruba in their own state.

The only one moment a true Lagos indigene was elected the Speaker of Lagos State House of Assembly, it was swiftly revised and even some indigenous traditional rulers who supported the move were sanctioned and later forgiven when they kowtowed once again in total submission.

Why is Badagry treated like an orphan in Lagos State? When will a true Lagos Indigene: an Awori, an Egun, an indigenous Egba or Ijebu become Lagos State Governor instead of people from other states? Funso William, Musuliu Obanikoro, Jimi Agbaje, etc. were all frustrated. Why should non indigenous Yoruba have access to both opportunities in their true State of Origin and Lagos while Lagos Indigenes eat crumbs in their own state. So many questions.

God never sleeps.

On this note you're wrong. Lagos actually belonged to Yoruba people and the way it was formed, it's a collabo. That have those that are Aworis who are first settlers. Those ones too came from the Yoruba ancestral land. So those Ijebus, Egbas or Eguns of Badagri are all one. You that's non Yoruba cannot shook mouth. It's not tribalism but that's the make up of the thing.
I v read their story. And if you say God nor dey sleep. Na cos of ya entitlement

How come only ibos are angry over this harmless statement? You too develop your land so that we all can be rushing there. Na only you dey run from your land as if sey dem dey pursue you. How will you ever get your Biafra that way?

And how is that your business?

You people don't know when to get involved or keep quiet.

You have your fingers in every pie. And when you get reactions, you start crying that you are hated.

lol then we demolish it and use the money to do party.

Then sell another canal tomorrow and demolish it again. You do drug, buy house, we demolish, then use the money for Owanbe, then send you to jail.

Who is wiser?

timilehin007:
This is to tell you questioning Oyo, ondo, ekiti and Osun states people in Lagos, telling them they do not have a say in Lagos, they should go their states.
Lagos states is generally Yoruba United state . And attack by other tribes against any Yoruba people/person in Lagos state is an attack on all Yorubas largely

You can see how stubborn, unreasonable and covetously malevolent these people are.

Sanwo-olu, Governor of Lagos and a Lagosian, has told the entire world at the Citizens and Government of SW conference Lagos is the United State of Yorubas.

Yet they are the only one, out of hundreds of ethnic groups on this forum, arguing and insulting others on this thread as if the statement of Sanwo-olu is somehow abomination or attack against them.

Yorubas are planning and discussing their own future and that of their land and they are angry, upset to even be spitting fire. What manner of people are these who cannot respect the rights of a people to make choices they are entitled to?

It is the mindset of these people that resulted in 20 wars per week across Africa and the world in the past and at different stages in the history of man.

Till today, civility, sophistication, progressive thinking and respect for others continues to evade them.

nah this kind statement Dey always pain our Okoro neighbours…..they hate to always wake up to the reality that Lagos is Yorubaland sharing the same culture, traditions and ancestry with our brothers/sisters from other part of yorubaland

What has Igbo got to do with his comment? How did you know he's Igbo? what i hate most is false accusation

KingDashx:
Yoruba United States..
What does that even mean?!

YU S

We told you so

KingDashx:
Yoruba United States..

Thank you for that question

At least 8 yoruba clans have Ancient Ancestral Territories in lagos State
Complete with their own Traditional Rulers
Awori with the most population,Ijebu , Ilaje,Egba,Egbado,oyo,Owu,ketu,, and in Badagry the Egun.
Every one of them arrived long before Gbadebo Rhodes Enslaved returnee Ancestors

If we tell them a little of the History of yoruba lagos if they have Conscience they will Shut up and beg for Forgiveness

There were Yorubas in lagos long before Oduduwa was born

When 1st Ijesha king was sent to moba, Lagos to fetch Oduduwa sea Water in 10th Century
,he met 5th ijebu king on Throne!! Yes
1,2,3,4,5th ijebu king in the 10th Century O !!!

Lekki in Lagos is Ijebuland!!!!
moba is next to Lekki

The ijebu king gave him the guides to take him to moba
after he had previously lost his way to moba at Okun Ajah all in today’s Lagos !!
moba itself had had more than 10 kings already
The Igbore clan of the Egba also has moba Ancestors who were still living on
Lagos Lagoon until the early 18th Century when power drunk Af0nja at Ilorin created big big problems
For entire Yorubaland that sent everyone fleeing to the Mountains and to the Rocks for Refuge
That was how they ended up in Abeokuta

The first Ijesha king spent 2 months at moba near Ikoyi Lagos
The Otun Ekiti are descended from the moba people of Lagos
and Oore Otun Ekiti is directly descended from the moba kings

That is why the Ijesha Kings till today have the Title
“Owa Obokun” ( He came back after fetching Sea Water)
That Sea Water was fetched at moba on the Lekki Peninsula and was carried
to Oduduwa at Ile Ife in the 10th Century!!!
Yes!!!

Don’t drag people’s God given Ancient Ancestral Heritage it is offensive
Even God Almighty will fight you back

Has a Lagos indigene ever produce Governor in Ogun, Osun, Oyo, Kawrra, Ekiti and Ondo before? why the focus on Lagos too much? I always feel ashamed whenever i see comments like this.

Christistruth00:

It means Yorubas see Lagos as London, Paris and United States
