Are you a descendant of the white man? Mtcheew! Consider this my final response to you—I have put up with your nonsense for far too long.

Any excuse to run away after being exposed is welcomed okay....no need to be ashamed....off you go then. .

DeepSight:
Any Nigerian having to apologize for living in Lagos is as absurd as an Englishman apologizing for living in London, a South African for living in Johannesburg, an American for living in New York, a Brazilian for living in Rio de Janeiro, etc. Lagos is the economic capital of Nigeria and also its melting pot and nerve centre.

Of course this takes nothing away from the historical ethnic Yoruba identity but in my view no one should reduce Lagos to a tribal enclave. It is a city of international standing with a rich mix of culture and commerce.

same thing u did in south Africa that made them angry, now u are playing victim by calling them xenophobic

Assumptions. I am not Igbo, by the way.

MusaChukwudi:
Nonsense - you're all subjects of our traditional rules like it or not!

Why ain't you people proud of your ancestral land and home?

You are not even from Lagos. I'm more Lagos than you. I'm an Ibo but born in Lagos and grew in Lagos. Everything about me is Lagos

Think, then act = Ronu

Act, then think = Ponu

The choice is yours.

ratcock:
Is it that he was not thinking correctly before making that divisive comment?
There are certain behaviors I don’t expect from his likes. He shouldn’t have descended into the same level with the usual suspects.

When people show their true colour... believe them.

No need to recolour them... less you get hurt.

It is one thing to live in a city in a country, whether homogeneous or heterogeneous; it is another to claim you own all the lands in that city in an ethnically diverse country.

professorPABX:
He has passed the message across already. There is no need for any apology. From Gbagada phase 1, Phase2 to Ajah, from Ajao Estate, Okota, festac , Igando to Iyana Oba up to Agbara, etc. The redevelopment of houses at Ebute Metta to Iddo to Lagos Island.

There is no need for apology

Just as I expected...

Lands will be seized
Houses will be demolished
Market closure will be rampant and hastily done
Mysterious fires here and there.

na ordinary Igbos who make their daily bread and butter I pity the most. cho cho cho every now and then.

I expect the mother of all floggings next year.

But that's meaningless trash talk.

Igbos Own All The Lands In Lagos- Rapper Ill Bliss

Most Yorubas are trained to tribalize Igbos , Most Igbos are taught to ignore them .
But this won't end tribalism .
To end tribalism is to punish those who sponsor it and render equal opportunities for all tribes .
Sadly the sponsors are in the government

i have a neighbor who is an unfiltered igbo trader and he has been complaining to me that the hostility is very clear. all of them are putting building of warehouses on hold

as a person who has been on this platform since 2006 - it is actually not trash talk but that is a story for another day

He has said it he has said it! He either provide evidence or DIE

Belurved1:
Infact you're still complicating this issue...why are you still saying that Lagos is your home?

you can seperate the obsession this group of people have with Lagos even though we don’t share common border

RecentHistory:
Battle ready?

Boy, you lost a war.
In this country, you are the only ones who surrendered.
Others were by amalgamation, but you went to add conquest to your own predicament.

We own you and whatever you own.

😂😂😂😂😂😂

Pls help me to educate him because most of them are just ignorant of history and here is history about to repeat itself and when they finally get what they are looking for, they start to claim to be the victim

DEROX:
Making this kind of statement when election is coming, the indigenes will answer you at the right time, if una like shout cry dey no go send

Have you answered the people that have invaded your region and kidnapped your school children and your Obas?I think you should do that first before you get triggered over online talk

Tell that to the average street people in lagos, or ogun mtchew we know tinubu is failing but i rather vote atiku than queue up in the sun for rubbish candidate

Which do you refer to, just so I am not mistaken -

1. Those real or fake Lagosians who insist that Lagos is "owned" by ethnic Lagosians (note this is different from another set who appropriate it to the Yoruba as a whole)

2. Those (allegedly largely Igbo) who insist that it is open commercial space much of which has been purchased

3. Those who claim that it is no man's land.

Biodun1929:
Backhanded apology.

We talk,wahala. We no talk,Wahala,We apologise too,wahala. The issue is you people are just triggered by ibos. especially those of you who are closest yet the people who kill your people,who have killed and kidnapped your kings,school children,beheaded a yoruba teacher,you people cant say a word. I cant imagine if it was ibo terorists that are killing your people all hell will have been et loose.
from kwara to ondo,your town are near empty,but it is igbos who talk that you think of everynow and then

Until when you face your killers,then the rest will take you serious,until then,some of you should not be speaking in public at all

There is no land that is open commercial space in Nigeria and there is no no-mans-land in Nigeria.

Lagos is Yorubaland ruled by Yorubas just as Anambra, Imo, Enugu, Abia, Ebonyi are Iboland ruled by Ibos.

What's up with all these cunny and deceitful comments when the reality is crystal clear?

The conversation arose from somewhere and is not directed at you. Don't busy yourself making assumptions.

Are you trying to say there are no current cases of high-profile kidnappings going on in the south east or you just want to deceive yourself because those south east kidnappings are not on the national spotlight?

ppogba:
Just like the one whose supporters were saying the British will bring warships to rescue.

That conman will languish in prison for a long time

Yorubaskullmine:
To air is human but to forgive is divine.
He is forgiven.

After almost setting the city on fire with his careless talk, the government needs to create a law that gives the police authority to arrest donkeys who make comments that are likely to cause or instigate a breakdown of public law and order

kimjessey2019:
My Yoruba landlord always come to beg me to pay him shop rent upfront. I have paid up-to 2031 and somehow I got a lawyer to get him to sign that before he sell the place he must let me know first. Well, I bought the house last month so yes Ibliss no lie, we own all the houses and lands now.

And so what?

Don't we have Yoruba people who are landlords in the south east?

Are you advocating violence?

I thought you were a mature and sensible person, i was wrong!

zoedew:
The exact example of what Baba Chinua Achebe advised the Igbo against. Do you suppose that a typical indigene will welcome such an utterance. Give these things some thought before uttering them. Such statements breed resentment against the Igbo North, South and West of Nigeria, Ghana, South-Africa et al as the indigenous population are bound to feel that you are out to supplant them! I once lived in the South-East of Nigeria and know firsthand the Igbo will not tolerate one quarter of what they give to their hosts in Yorubaland. . Choose to be wise so you will not labour in vain. It is labour in vain if your profit does not combine with a sound and humble character that wins acceptance with your hosts.

we are all Nigerians and have right to live anywhere in the country

Sure! That is not what is in view.
