It is NOT illegal, for any State (including Lagos) to identify and make provisions for their indigenes
Lagos is a federal state. You can do any indigeneship you want.....but don't forget there is no toll gate on Third mainland bridge.

Third mainland was built with oil money from the Oil producing southwest states.

Lets remind does of you trying to claim indigenes now.

The primary job of a man and the main reason for his birth is to DEVELOP and PROSPER his fatherland!!! Nigeria is a geographical space not a coherent or homogeneous entity.

The south east is in great distress and confusion, and it is putting up all sorts of bogus narratives to mask their pitiful condition.

This is the result of unrestrained covetous envy of the Yorubas and their Lagos.

Lets be honest, the child who the parents use a lot of the family resources to send to Harvard is going to do better than the Child than did OND from Nassarawa polythecnic.

If Southeast had been the federal capital for 20 years, Lagosians would be trooping to the Southeast as well.......

Lagos was a federal capital and got federal funds for over 2 decades.....It was not Lagos indigenes that built Lagos. Federal funds did.

Before we go any further please clarify your understanding of the difference between Lagos FCT and Lagos State. They are not one and the same.

And why was the FCT moved/relocated to Abuja (at the very centre of the country)?

This is illegal and unconstitutional on a federal level.

The Lagos State Indigeneship Automated Certificate is a sleekly disguised form of digital discrimination.


By institutionalizing “indigene status,” the government effectively divides residents into first-class citizens and others, contradicting the 1999 Constitution’s guarantee of equality and freedom from discrimination (Section 42).

In a cosmopolitan state built by migrants, codifying ancestry into a digital gatekeeper for access to schools, jobs, or benefits is regressive. It risks excluding millions of Lagos-born Nigerians whose families migrated generations ago.

Automation doesn’t sanitize bias, it only makes discrimination more efficient.


The Attorney General of the Federation Lateef Fagbemi should step in and uphold the constitution.
Maybe you don’t forget say na our Baba be President and the Chief Justice of Nigeria is also our home girl representing Lagos State on the Bench. You go cry tire

Sultan can own a part of Onitsha
And certainly Emekas do own a part of Kano
It's called ownership of property rights and it's guaranteed by the Nigerian constitution
Even you may not own any property while an Adamu or Chinedu will own plenty in a town where you're an indigene
It's one of the benefits of one Nigeria

Exactly what I'm saying
Give Lagos indigenes their indigenous rights
Not giving Lagos indigenous rights to an Osun, Ondo or Ogun indigene
That's why GRV attracted so much hate because he asked for indigene rights

Stop saying what you don't know.

1) Many Royal families in Yorubaland trace their claims to the throne via maternal link e g Lagos : After the Eletu Kekere died childless, his aunty, Erelu Kuti seized power but was pacified by making her son, Ologunkutere, the new Oba and her second son, as the Onilegbale of Lagos.

2) Oba Adedapo Tejuosho of the ruling Karunwi dynasty of Oke-Ona Egba ,traced their lineage to the throne matrileaneally
3) The Matanmi Royal Family of Oshogbo are descendants of Matanmi, the son of the daughter of Oba Olarooye, the founder of Oshogbo who moved the people from Ipole -Ijesha to the modern site, now called Oshogbo

4) Late Gov Lam Adeshina of Oyo State (1999-2003): The father was from Ebira, Kogi State who came to work in Ibadan farming community but the mother was from a prominent Ibadan family.
Where did you get the info from that Lam Adesina is from Kogi? I'm hearing this for the first time

Anyways I already explained your point. Royalty is by bloodline not ancestry. Even then, it is an exception to the rule for one to ascend the throne through the maternal line. More importantly, the Yoruba ancestry is not dual. It is patrilineal.

GRV was trying to deny even Ijebu their Homeland indigenous rights
It was more infuriating because he lives and was speaking from Lekki which is Ijebuland
Can you just imagine the arrogance!!

GRV handlers forgot to explain to him that Ijebuland began at 5 Cowrie Creek at Victoria Island.
They must have gone into shock when they heard him telling the Ijebu to shut up in Lagos.
Ijebus were in Lagos 1000 years before his Ancestors got off the Boat from Sierra Leone

If Ijebu alone carry their Lagos Ancestral land, over half of Lagos State including Lekki where
GRV lives will disappear in one go !!

Does he think Lagos Island has Land ?!
Lagos Island ran out of land over a century ago!!

GRV that even refused to speak to the indigenes in their own indigenous Language ?

Who made you the arbitrator between indigenes
There are non-indigenes in Lagos denying indigenes their indigenous rights
That is worse than whatever you accuse GRV of since at least both GRV and the Lekki Ijebus are indigenes
Besides, Ijebu cannot carry their ancestral land anywhere else than Lagos
Nigerian law already handed over Lekki to Lagos and so it must be
So they should learn to respect and obey Nigerian law that made Lekki part of Lagos state in 1967 under the command of Yakubu Gowon a Plateau man
And non-indigenes who are from Oyo, Osun and Ogun should mind their damn business

The Ijebus that own Lekki are Lagosians not Ogun or Ekiti indigenes
They have the right to indigeneship over and above Osun and Ondo indigenes hiding under SW to steal Lagos blind
Lagos Island is as much a part of Lagos state as Lekki is and they have equal rights
So says Yakubu Gowon in 1967 and you have not asked him to mind his business
Are you slavish to him because he's from the north?

Ijebu Lekki are Lagos indigenes. Ijebu Ijebu Ode are Ogun indigenes. How are they the same

Igboland does not belong to Obasanjo or Gowon. It belongs to Nigeria just as Yorubaland belongs to Nigeria. Gowon said some Igbos are SS Deltas and they are so till today. Same Gowon said some Ijebus are Lagosians and they are so till today.

Ijebuland is still the Property of the Ijebu people there is no way around it
Even the Constitution and Laws of Nigeria recognise the Awujale as the King of Ijebuland
Half of Lagos State is inside Ijebuland

State creation was only for administrative convenience

So why are you still hypocritically claiming Igboland ?

Yet you think other Regions don’t have the same indigenous rights

These were your thoroughly vanquished father's surrendering to Gowon after they were captured and dragged to Lagos by Obasanjo .
