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?

Christistruth00:
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 koyi 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
Yes!!!

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

Ngwamankilyou2:
And also Rivers as our Collective wealth.

Everyone should face their region.

WizardOfNG:
Precisely the point I made about. A people who have seen the future, and are looking beyond the hopelessness of 'one Nigeria', gather to discuss and plan ways forward for the people and land of the SW.

Yet it is one set of people angry and cursing. The reason is simple. They are the only folks unreasonable enough to always have an arrogantly expansionist sense of entitlement over the land and decision-making of others in their land because they feel all land is there for them to move to and dominate.

When resisted they begin to fight and insult others. So annoying!!! Are Yorubas, or anyone else for that matter, doing or have ever done similar to them in their Land?

As if they even have the sophistication, tolerance and accommodating character to minimally allow others make unencumbered headway in their region let alone Yorubas etsl develop the overbearing sense of entitlement they show others in Lagos and elsewhere.

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.

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 t opportunities in both their true State of Origin and Lagos while Lagos Indigenes eat crumbs in their own state. So many questions.

God never sleeps.

Rivers is not for you guys. Is Rivers a Biafra land?

OGA PLEASE JUST PARK WELL, THE QUESTION YOU SHOULD ASK YOUR SELF IS THIS, ARE THE REAL INDIGENOUS LAGOSIAN READY TO RECLAIM THEIR STATE?. I WAS BREAD AND BROUGHT UP IN OJO AMONG THE AWORIES, THE AWORIES AND THE EGUNS WILL REFER PREFER SINGING THE PRAISES OF THEIR SETTLERS YORUBA’S WHO ARE IN POWER THAN TO ASPIRE TO BE A LEADER IN THEIR OWN STATE.

ABEG THE REAL OWNERS OF LAGOS ARE NOT SERIOUS AND READY FOR RESPONSIBILITY, THEY WILL RATHER SELL THEIR LAND BOTH LAGOON AND USE THE MONEY TO MARRY 4 WIVES AND EAT TILAPIA FISHES, CRABS AND ISHAWURU AND THE REST.

ON THE MATTER OF THE INDEGINOUES LAGOSIANS, GOD DON SLEEP ON THEIR MATTER JOR

Putinofrussia:
All Yorubas are indigenous to Lagos but they must salute Aworis who came first.The sweet part of it is that Ife is where most Yorubas migrated from including those in Brazil etc.
You saw the recent data posted of how Yorubas migrated to Lagos.
Almost all recent States were there...Ijebus,Ekitis,Ilorins,Egbas,Ijeshas etc

Wahabfuture:
How many Lagosians has been governor of Ekiti, Ondo, Ogun, Osun, kwarra and Oyo states? Please use your sense

DeLaRue:
If you are from far away Ondo or Ekiti and you enter a government office in Lagos, as long as you can speak yoruba or mix it with English, nobody asks if you are from Ikorodu or isale eko.

If per chance your conversation moves in that direction and you say you are from Abeokuta, Akure, or Ibadan, you will not be treated any different. There is even a chance you will be greeted more cheerfully as awon 'ara Ibadan', ' ara Ondo' etc followed jokingly by 'Ki le mu wa fun wa' (what did you bring for us).

Everyone in the SW looks to Lagos as a common property, even those who have never visited the state. Make no mistake, they will travel down to defend Lagos if the time ever comes.

Lagos is to the SW what London is to England, or Paris to France. Full stop.

Putinofrussia:
If they are from Lagos and become governors but because they were born in Ondo,Osun,Kwara,Ogun etc...if they claim to have come from these states being (his families) there for generations,how would you know?
His Yorubaness is all.
Be proud of your tribe and stop cho cho cho into other people's lives.

Benzigler:
Yoruba is not indigene of Lagos, Ewe, Aworis, and Benin people are the owner of Lagos

Benzigler:
Despite your long epistle and you still failed to answer his question, shameful

JohnAOne:
Exactly Yoruba (everywhere) are ONE.

Putinofrussia:
Cry well,sir.

AustineE1:
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.

Benzigler:

LegendHero:
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 Owambe, then send you to jail.

Who is wiser?

ibedun:
Let them go and Kpai…..
What use are you if you can’t prosper and develop your fatherland?

SonOfDSoil01:
NwOSU, stop crying. How much of those money came from your 5plot of unproductive potopoto region? Sw is still the highest contributor of non oil revenue with Cocoa leading the highest non oil exports from Nigeria. Other non oil revenue such as vat are generated from Lagos and other SW state accounting for the rest.

And when we talk of oil revenue, Ondo is an oil producing state and it produces more crude than what is being generated from your region. So please tells us what is your contribution to the federation revenue account?

And talking about building another state like Lagos. Ibadan is the biggest city in west Africa and a city of many first with so much achievements to its name than you can find anywhere in your region and today it is still far more developed and more economically viable than your 5plot of potopoto land, numbers don’t lie NwOSU btw I’m proudly from lagos
