It is not true that he sent only Ndigbo.
If the list I've seen is true then he basically sent only Igbo with a token effort to include a few Yoruba.
This is nepotism.

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.
The positions that should be shared with the rest of Nigerians, Bola Tinubu have shared all with only the Yorubas.

Is Nigeria not for everyone both Igbo, Yoruba and Hausa, is Nigeria under Bola Tinubu a Yoruba country or a state
How fair is that ?

Laws are made to be enforced. Do the right thing and your house will not be demolished. By the way, the demolition was not targeted at any tribe. It only appears that some people tend to flout the law more than others.
These are constituents In Okota. We all know that Okota is predominantly igbos around that area. Is there any Yoruba person inOkota that was refused by the man. Show us

I sense this post was sponsored by seyi tinubu camp to smear ibo candidacy. E NO WORK!!!

SHOW US THE PEOPLE OTHER REPS HAVE SPONSORED TO TOGO OR GAMBIA OR EVEN CAMEROON. The so called yoruba elected are chopping the money and sharing rice and egg and saying lekannsi, one person is sponsoring his constituents who voted him una dey cry, una go still ment.

SHOW US THE YORUBA PEOPLE YORUBA REPS HAVE SPONSORED IF NOT SHUT UP AND LET THE PERSON WORKING WORK!!

That is dividend of democracy, why una dey cry?. Tinubu and Sanwo can send the rest. That man was voted in there by majority of his constituents who are Igbos, and you want his to benefit those who are busy shouting omo ibo must leave Lagos?.
Meaning Tinubu is not doing bad for appointing yoruba and hausa people that voted him 🙄 una dey really ment to all those yoruba but na una muuuuummu passes.

No. If they dominate, why have they not being winning elections back to back in the place? Igbos don't dominate anywhere in Yoruba land
Igbo dominant there. Na my area most yoruba there don't come out to vote they are busy staying in door or shop. Apc lost during presidential election at there. It was then the yorubavlearnt they messed up and they came out heavily during governorship election and the population of igbo doubled during the election. I love the igbo for that....

But Bianca is part of Anambra constituency. You people are evil.

I am glad at the outrage going on.

2027 is going to be very different. In addition, there are more Yorubas in that constituents. But ibos magically topped the list.

Those people only have issues when they are not dominating!
May God have mercy on you with this your wickedness. You cannot progress with this mindset. Are these people not part of that consituency? Okota who are the predominant people there? Is it not igbos?

Are you ppl mad, so tinubu can use Nigeria’s money to empower yoruba dominated ministers and appointees, but igbo man can’t use Lagos money to empower an igbo dominated area and constituents he is representing. Igbo man na the reps member, kpai yourselves 😝…. I thought you ppl said Igbos are not united and don’t love themselves… una go learn the hardway 🤣

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.
Try and be intelligent. You guys are validating what the Moniepoint CEO said about graduates. If someone like you is not capable of deep, cognitive reasoning then there is a problem with Nigeria.
If you were deeply thinking the first question is are these guys part of his consituency and were they validated as part of the constituency? Also was there any Yoruba person in that consituency that showed interest and he was refused. If you cannot answer those questions you have no basis in accusing them of tribalism.

Again you have still shown that you incapable of cognitive and deep reasoning. The opposition to Bianca was only from Ojukwu's family based on reasons known to them. Did the whole of Anambra oppose her candidacy? No did APGA allow her to go and contest primaries? Yes, and she lost to the eventual winner. So cool down with your lies and misinformation.

Re: Lagos Rep, Okey-Joe Onuakalusi Sponsors 18 To China, Majority Igbos by Kalulu44: 2:53pm On May 06
I am an Igbo man but born, brought up and still live in Lagos.
First of, I want to say what Mr Okey the Rep did was wrong in all ramifications.
You were accepted in a foreign land and allowed to hold a political office. Logic demands you should pay back your host in kind. He should have done it 60/40 or 70/30 in favor of the indigenes.
.
But after all said and done, I want to clarify something to those saying it can't happen in Igbo land. Yes truly I doubt it can happen there, but yorubas and other tribes are not much in Igbo lands like Igbos are in there lands. Yorubas hasn't invested much in Igbo lands just like the Igbos has done in their lands. And bcus of this, the Yorubas are not making attempt to contest politically in Igbo lands.
And talking about Igbos holding political office in Yoruba land, it only happens in Lagos where I and majority people believe they have invested so much in.

No other Yoruba speaking state except Lagos can allow an Igbo man hold even a councilor position, (I maybe wrong but I haven't heard of).
For example, everybody knows 90% of spare parts dealers all over the country are Igbo people. But I onced lived in Oshogbo where there's a rule of no Igbo man should own a shop at the spare parts markets there.
It's strictly only Yorubas.
So imagine that and imagine if they'll ever allow an Igbo man become even a councilor there.
.
In all, what I see happening in Lagos where some Igbos hold political office. The indigenes are trying to make them feel belong since they have brought investment to their domains. And also to get more patronage from them.

This Joe rep is not wise at all, and he has set himself up for failure in his quest for reelection. He should have made this sponsorship at 50-50 so that criticism will be less. He should expect tribal gang up against him in the next election
Hold on show us any Yoruba person who indicated interest and was refused. Na wah for una ooo this is not an issue at all.

Lol. Have you been to Oshodi before? I grew up in Oshodi and I can tell you for free that the place is populated by Yoruba but of course I expect you to support this with your full chest.
His consituency covers Okota and not Oshodi make una slow down

Nothing to see here, they have been doing it since the days of Azikwe.

Did Ahmadu Bello not warn you all.
Did Akintola not warn you all.

Na Yoruba buts I dey take laugh.

Oshodi Isolo II areas is 70% Yorubas. But he filled over 80% of that list with his kinsmen.

Even the 3 or 4 non SE names there, check well, they would have SE mother.
