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?
Did you read my post from the beginning at all. I said Mr Okey was wrong with what he did. But voting him as an Igbo man in a Yoruba speaking state can only happen in Lagos cus Igbos are many there

These calls for nationwide attention!

Where is it done? That in a state, an opportune rep used state resources to sponsor non indigenes!

I need to visit this case and use all powers to make sure he never gets re-elected.

A big shame to the West!

Oshodi-Isolo will be an area of concentration with development and every available option now on the table.
You have shifted from hatred of USA in the Iran war to hatred of igbos. Bros try and be a deep thinker. Are these people not part of the consituency? Also, I dare you to show me one Yoruba person that indicated interest and was not accepted.

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.
What about tunubu's house that is on a sewage line? You no go comment about it?
Hypocrite

There are Igbo is all states in the South west and some of them were there even before I was born. If any of these folks were to be elected will it be ok if he favors Igbo over other folks in his constituency.
I don't see the correlation between what he did and which state in the SW he represents.

I grew up there I be okota boy.... lol ask them what they did to them. They had to go and beg. They ran inside, the could not come out. We grew up all in Ago igbo hausa yoruba edo no discrimination. Friendship to the core until the importation of some from over that caused problems. Ask any full blown ago person. Ago was pure love no fight.

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.
That should tell you something
nobody forced them to invest in Lagos.

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....
You are saying two opposite things. Igbos are dominant and Yoruba lost because they don't come out to vote. We can only say they are dominant if they win all the time, if not, then they are not dominant. Can you say majority of buildings in the place are owned by Igbos? That can not be possible. There are Yoruba there and there are other Nigerians there as well.

Support Biafra and have Peace...

Haba! grin
I agree with you, for the first time since you popped up on nairaland. My Yoruba people will get sense and learn how to protect their land one way or another. Oga ESN please continue to give us wotowito!!! Shebi na we wan accommodate every Tom Dick and Harry without putting in place rigorous selection/approval criteria. Yoruba want to be called NICE!

Please tell una people to keep putting the pepper in our eyes.

Thank you for your attention to this matter.

you are the one that is very wicked.

the SE has crude oil, one of the largest gas deposits in Africa, one of the largest coal deposits in Africa

while Yoruba people don't have the level of crude oil the SE have, the SW does not have gas deposits, does not have coal deposits.

when it comes to natural resources wealth the SE is extremely richer and wealthier and the SW and the rest of Nigeria and they should not be allowed to participate in politics outside the SE.

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.
If a Yoruba representative cannot emerge in Enugu or Imo, who would you blame? You hypocrites in this country can never have peace of mind. While you shout xenophobia in South Africa, you engineer and maintain the same xenophobia inside your own country.

You are the ones who victimize others and claim to be the victims. Confused people.

While you complain that Igbos hold political positions in Yoruba land, you pretend not to know that there are Yorubas in political positions in Western countries. They are citizens of those countries and no one discriminates against them, on either the basis of their names or skin.

While the President of our country happily rewards those who worked with him to get to the position, your fickle mind has not allowed you know that those rewarded would have played roles to get the man to power. If the President does it, just like Wike, what stops others from doing the same?

By the way, the party involved is not your beloved APC. That’s not the only party open to contest such positions in Lagos state. So if his people supported him and he won, you expected him to reward APC members and your like, who voted on the basis of tribalism and religion.

Your little mind should have told you that Oshodi/Isolo is not all about Yorubas or Oshodi bus stop, where your beloved agberos and touts control. That LG covers the whole of the aforementioned area, including Ajao estate, Ire akari, Okota/Ago and Isolo, which areas are dominated by moderate and very decent Yorubas. They have lived peacefully with every other tribe for uncountable years. Those areas are dominated by people of different tribes and not the Yorubas. The area, including Ajeromi/Ifelodun, Ojo, etc, are not APC dominated areas. Ojo fell into the hands of APC in 2019 owing to the selfish performance of the then PDP people.

When people like you talk tribalism, think first. Youths like you have your minds muddled up by politicians. All Nigerians are free to contest elections anywhere that they please, if the are popular there. Our constitution guarantees that. If your people cannot contest elections outside their tribal territories, then they must check themselves. It means that they have issues mingling with others.

That’s how most of you who have not ventured beyond 7up toll gate, not to talk of Shagamu, come here to discuss what happens in other states, with no knowledge at all. You talk of river Niger and Anambra state , not knowing the location of River Niger, not to talk of the state where you have never visited.

If you lot want Nigeria to remain, then let others have peace. If not, you can all speed up the break up process and let others have their peace of mind.

SW is significantly poorer than the SE...

so it is fuulish of SW to vote non-SW people into SW political position.

Well, you only have one vote. E pass so?

You are free to use it. Ensure that you do not wait for pittances at the polling booth to use it. If your vote counts and you win, that’s fine. If your vote fails and others win, do not cry. Let the man voted for irrespective of tribe or religion, do his job peacefully.

By the way, tell your people to stop shouting tribalism. That’s how you all voted the last time and now shouting ebi n pawa.

What's the meaning of all what you wrote now? We're talking of Lagos and you're talking of SW. What happened can only happen in Lagos and never in any other SW state. Why bcus, Lagos is almost for all (I don't want to say no man's land).
And talking about oil or no oil, no states in Nigerian including with their oil is richer than Lagos.

Did Yoruba colonize ibos like England colonized Nigeria. Why should ibos hold political offices in Yorubaland but Ibos cannot allow a Fulani man contest for elections in Anambra or Abia state.

You people are factory fitted with gaslighting behaviors. Lmao.

Akintola and Bello both warned about this in the Early 1960s..

Hausa fixed up but Yorubas did not. I am glad that Obi came out to contest in 2023. He exposed everything and turned Yorubas to conservatism just like the Hausas grin
