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 liberal 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.

Airlord2030:
I will cease hearing it in my land from 2027, after we have done the needful to that unpleasant name

esnbrutality:
You think i give 2 Fs about how you feel? That level you want to activate will be done in all totality.

Abeg send Sunday igboho enter the war sef...

We wan seriously show una serious pepper..

chopnaira:
Was it Buhari that said Anambrans should be discriminating and doing bigotry against Ebonyi people?

cuteboy2:
Nigerian constitution does not list "indigenous" as criteria to register as a voter or stand for election as a candidate. Wherever you reside, work, do business and pay tax, you can register to vote and stand for election there.

Do you gerrit sir?

By the way, are the following indigenes of Lagos?

1. Bola Ahmed Tinubu
2. Olamilekan Adeola
3. Rauf Aregbesola

Also please study the attached to further educate yourself on eligibility to vote and stand elections in Nigeria.

integrity16:
I ask you again, Is the igbos the only tribe in his constituency? Did he announce the training opportunity to others and they refused?

ultraviolet27:
Nawah oo if he had announced it to the other ethnic groups in that constituency how could they have refused?I am not even particular about the Yoruba indigenes there what about the edos,hausas,itsekiri,ijaw,tiv groups there? why weren't they included or na only yoruba and ibo dey for oshodi/isolo the way you people support injustice is what infuriates and irritates me the most!!

Despite I am from ekiti I knew how I campaigned,lambasted my family members and canvassed for labour party and obi in 2022 but now I don see una agenda a leopard can never change its spots I have ways been disgusted and voicing out how tinubu have been doing his lopsided appointment here because I am detribalized and I want better for everyone be it itsekiri,nupe tv,idoma ijaw,Benin etc but as a yoruba adage will say"adaniloro o man fi agbara ko eni ni' please keep this energy when you are being dished in your own coin because everyone is gonna luurnn the hard way!!

tiswell:
IGBOs massively voted for him,while yorubas thought he ain't gonna win.
Naija politics na give and take.
He has done well with his constituency obligations 👍

SonOfDSoil01:
see your flawed logic……..lagos is a liberal state still controlled by Yorubas…..like the poster said, give us an example where such was don in any part of the east? are the Yorubas in Lagos not as same Yorubas in other Sw state? And they still gave a non Yoruba the privilege to power and yet they tell us Yorubas are tribalist…….2023 really woke us up and okey just scored an own goal…..this will never happen again

Kalulu44:
Dey play, as far as Lagos is concern it will continue to happen. When you have many greedy Yoruba men in Lagos ready to sell their birth right

SonOfDSoil01:
what a clown……who carried out the census? The only place and local govt that are predominantly ibo are in your 5plot region, no where in Lagos will you find that……Lagos is Yorubaland and nothing will ever change that…..this rep member just scored an own goal…….let see how your acclaimed numbers will bring him back in 2027

lawani:
There is no local government outside Igbo land talk less of a federal constituency where Igbo is up to half of the population resident there

SonOfDSoil01:
don’t worry…..we have Learned our lessons, even though the conservative amongst us told the “Yoruba but” sellout amongst us that voting obi was dangerous…….now they have all gotten the message and the new wave of conservatism blowing across Lagos and Yorubaland will it you as a shocker……Una kuku shabi cry we’ll well, but this time around, Una go cry tire, let see as okechukwu will return back in 2027

esnbrutality:
So people learn from Tinubu that flooded the whole of Nigeria with Yoruba, but igbo man empowers his constituency members you bring tribe into it?

Support Biafra and have Peace...

Haba!

ottersberger:
Shut up, my friend.

Coming to the public place to rant only confirms you as being emotionally unstable. The whole world knows that the second largest ethnic group in Lagos state is unarguably Igbo.

That is because Igbos migrated to Lagos as early as the 1920s. They contributed to building the Lagos some of you migrating from your SW enclaves in the 90s and 2000 met on the ground.

My family bought our plots of land in what is known today as lekki phase 1 directly from the Elegushi family in the 1970s, where were some you and your people then?.

Why do you think Ahmed Tinubu lost Lagos, and Abuja in the last election?. The same scenarion is playing out in the FCT as we speak. While other well-meaning Nigerians firmly stood with the core message of his excellency and voted for him, including his Yoruba supporters, his Igbo people also broke in large numbers for him.

Those Igbos are Lagosians. Most were born in Lagos. A number of may not even speak Igbo fluently or know where their fathers villages are. But they know who they are. How do I know?, I've met and spoken to a good many of these brothers and sisters.

I know people like you hate to stare the truth in the face, but Lagos is as Igbo as it is Yoruba. Yes, Lagos is Yorubaland, but it was developed by all Nigerians and will continue to be inhabited by all of us until, and if the country disintegrate.

As for saying the rep member scored an own goal, that's nonsense. You are saying he is too stupid to not know who got him there in the first place.

Do you really think politicians are philanthropists?. Abeg, rest.

Una too dey make empty threats - remember what you said and threaten about Mazi who is now totally forgotten.

Una balls dey our hands. Una investments and livelihood dey for under our oversight and policy control?

Respect your fada and host.

Kalulu44:
Talking about crying, tell that to those who carries politics on their heads. Wetin concern me concern who win or lose in politics

ultraviolet27:
If tinubu did that is it right for others to do that also infact how many people from tinubu's part did you see supporting that only the 30k per month media crew of his no sane person will support that since suffering and poverty no know any ethnic group I can never support any politician from any political party or tribe if he/she isn't doing well even if he is my relative because when he/she loots the national treasury he won't share parts of it for me

My grouse isn't even because he did that but that you people are even supporting him una must support una own for bad things but deride others for doing so what Ahmadu bello an Akintola said about you in 1965 were all true

Hope all those woke Lagosians lambasting Ahmadu bello then their eyes have opened now?must you take your hosts hospitality and levity for mumuism?

ottersberger:
Really?. You've just confirmed your very limited knowledge of Lagos and its people. Say hello to your neighbors in Oshogbo from me.

ottersberger:
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 him to benefit those who are busy shouting omo ibo must leave Lagos?.

esnbrutality:
All these underhand statements are irrelevant..

Go and protest that TINUBU appointed only YORUBA in a Country of different ethnicities. Dont hide behind reasoning about TINUBU and calling out the IGBO man that is a NIGERIAN and decides to empower his constituents.

As long as NIGERIA is 1 country..everyone can do as they please...

Buhari did it
Tinubi is doing it

Why shout because the IGBO man did it?

Its that simple..

lawani:
99 percent of Lagos elective posts are won by the Yoruba and during the governorship, this constituency in question was won by the APC, so you don't need a soothsayer to know that there is no local government in Lagos where the Yoruba are not a majority. So because one percent of Lagos posts was won by an Igbo now means Igbos and Yorubas are on an equal footing in Lagos?
