Why not if his constituents belief in his vision for them. Do you think the people that voted for the Okay guy are limited to Yorubas only? Shelves your fears and embrace the truth in all of its ramifications.
cyberbro:
Igbos will see nothing wrong with this, showing you that the hypocrisy in Nigeria cuts across all tribes, especially those always claiming victims. This is in a Yoruba state by the way, not an Igbo state.

Can a Yoruba rep emerge in Enugu or Imo, talk less of using state funds for sponsoring majority Yorubas in the Igbo state?

Those people who claim victims the most are the ones who would eventually abuse power the most and be selfish to their own tribe alone if they had the opportunity... Biafra itself was a war of selfishness.

No wahala, boys must enter that oshodi in the next election and do the needful.

Not because I find it provocative but because of hypocrisy of the igbos always calling yoruba tribalist.

Re: Lagos Rep, Okey-Joe Onuakalusi Sponsors 18 To China, Majority Igbos by Eriokanmi:
Shame on those attacking this man. How many reps in lagos have ever done anything close? This same guy was threatened with all manner of words during the 2023 election. What did Elliott do in surulere constituency ? He constructed a plank bridge and commissioned it, used his constituency project money to build houses and hotel. Anyone attacking this man lacks conscience.
Air Ticket to go to China alone by one person is over 2m naira, not to talk of hotel accommodation and training fees. An iboman donated the transformer at a popular street in able egba, near oja oba. A lot of our people who had money simply looked on. They still benefited from the man's kind heart. Instead of you guys to bury your head in shame, you're busy committing sin by attacking him. Someone just thought you how to give dividends of democracy to the masses instead of sharing a bag of rice and 10k and you're wailing.

I learnt he's doing it in phases. I'd only urge him to level up by increasing the number of our people in the next phase and this is still his prerogative to do, not by force. It doesn't even matter if he considered a particular tribe, so long as they're lagosians or residents here.

It is obvious you either know next to nothing about democratic political system or you are downright hypocritical. So political representation is no longer based on Nigerian electrical law and constitution? So the Oshodi-Isplo constituency is now only reserved for only indigenous people of the place and not open to all qualified constituents to participate in the electoral process Abi? Cover you inglorios face in shame for saying this unfortunate nonsense.
LOLSeeComment:
Well.... I'm very happy from the bottom of my heart that this is happening. This is the first thread I'm commenting on in a long while. I just love the smell of the breakfast served to the Oshodi Isolo people. How did he even become a representative of Yoruba people? Oshodi wey be some people ancestral land, all this Oshodi and Isolo wey be some people indigenous land. Una carry Okey out to be Una rep. Now he's repping his people. We shouldn't cry over this but we must learn to be conservative. Liberalism go finish us.

During the last election. There was this guy contesting in I think Aba. They had to give him a Yoruba name (Abiola) to discredit him because they know that once their people see a Yoruba name in between his name he won't get any votes.

When Ngige was contesting to be Anambra governor. Obi had to make posters of Ngige with Tinubu and the likes to make him look like a Yoruba candidate because once their people see that they won't vote him.

And there's another one. Where a man was saying God forbid a man from Ebonyi will become governor in Enugu but Yorubas are Libra and will cost us everything if we don't sit tight and rearrange ourselves.

Na only Yoruba man go de waka for him own ancestal land and foreigner go de insult am and he'll still go his own. Something you can't even try in Edo or Delta. Talkless of North or SE. This is well deserved... Makes me very happy.

I am an Igbo man though born and brought up in Lagos. In as much as I agree what this Mr Okey did was wrong in all ramifications. But it can only happen in Lagos State. No other Yoruba state except Lagos will accept this and do you know why, it's bcus Igbos too have invested so much in Lagos.
Ask yourself this question, don't you think the Oshodi/Isolo people voted for him so that they can get more of Igbo people's patronage?
.
Lastly, like I said it can only happen in Lagos State but never in the other Yoruba speaking state. I onced stayed in Oshogbo, there's a spare part market that was banned from Igbo people to own a shop there.

Ain't the beneficiaries Lagosians? Ain't they Nigerians. What is the difference between the critics of Hon. Onuakalisi and xenophobic South-Africans. No one has shown that he was denied the opportunity because he was not Igbo.

Basically, If the people of a certain constituency in Osun should decide to elect an Igbo candidate then it will be ok that he should benefit only Igbo in his constituency?

So you are supporting Tinubu..a failure worse than behavior. Fear no makeup you mention obedient complete.
