MayorofLagos:
[s]Do I even need to respond to the nonsense from this Igbo sub community in Lagos?

You all know what is in Mayor's mind already.

I will say this though, they find Fashola a softie and they enjoy disrespecting him left and right at every opportunity.

Why didnt their fathers try this nonsense when Tinubu was governor?

Igbos live in Ogun and in large numbers. Why dont they try this nonsense with Amosun?

They know whose eye to poke finger in. Fashola brought it upon himself trying to live the Nigerian dream.


There is only one dream....the Oduduwa Dream, and if you are on Oduduwa soil you live in conformity with Oduduwa philosophy, period!

Vote APC so we can bring regionalism and displace the Nigerian dream from our soil.[/s]

**grins** Jimi Ogunlale the tokunbo seller graduate from a glorified APC-owned Secondary school in Adamawa, please shut up!. Did Buhari promise you regionalism? Where will he get oil money to feed fat on. **LOLS**

I am sorry for Nigerians like you. You guys thinks backward. Nobody stops you from setlling in Onitsha,asaba or Enugu if you have the audacity to start afresh and establish in a new place. Lagos is the present commercial capital of Nigeria like new York is to americans,London to Britons,even though it is still more of a slum at the moment. Own by Nigerians,built by Nigerians and will remain nigerian's as long as there is peace in that country.
Hahahahaa....funny but it is now u guys will know that lagos is the commercial capital abi Ơ̴̴͡.̮Ơ̴̴̴͡ we are not stopping you from doing ur business,or becoming millionaires. What we want you ppl to do is stay away from our politics Other tribes in Enugu and co are not even given employment in ur civil service not to talk of being able to contest in a local govt pool....so abeg don't come here and play all wise for me..you ppl are just a bunch of selfish bigots...you start tribalism first and wen it starts to bit hard on you, u cry like babies and start preaching like saint...mschewwww

It pains me so much of the hatred that exists in this country. Just mere political expression /threat by NCSN has triggered all these name-calling and haulage of insults by fellow Nigerians to one tribe or the other, as though we have all been waiting for this opportunity to pour out our bitternesses . It is so sad. What then is the benefits of the degrees we have all acquired to be on this forum?
No one decided the tribe he/she wanted to belong,it was without our decision nor our suggestion that we are the tribe we are today, so why condemn one another?

My Igbo brethren can be funny atimes.... They say Charity begins at home. The day I see the first non-Igbo elected as whatever in an Igbo state, then I will gladly vote for d next Igbo man/woman in my state. Until then, every man, every tribe to their own state oh. So if other tribes resident in ?Lagos also clamour for inclusion, how many positions will remain for d Yorubas themselves?

You are a dullard!

ibo Bleep up gets treated from time to time.

No chance for ibos in Lagos politics. Go do your worst.

I'm sure Fashola will read so called letter on the internet like everyone of us. It'll never get to his desk. His secretary will be queried if it does.
That's why the ibo clowns made the letter public.

Nonsense!!

Ndigbo Cultural Society of Nigeria, NCSN a socio-cultural platform for the propagation of the interests of Ibos has sent an open letter to Governor Babatunde Fashola of Lagos State, lamenting what it called the marginalisation of Ndigbo in the politics of Lagos state and threatening to shift political support.

The group claimed the complete exclusion of Igbo people in the politics, judicial and other vital sectors of governance in Lagos State despite the sizeable contribution of Ibos to the economic life of the state.

The group in the letter signed by its president, Chief Udo Udeogaranya said Ndigbos are completely excluded from the politics of Lagos State saying that for the exception of one councillor, Ndigbo were completely lacking in the politics of the state.

“Correct us if we are wrong, but about 16 years of stewardship, since the inception of this Fourth Republic, your political organisation, All Progressives Congress (APC) owes Ndigbo Community of Lagos State an obligation to explain to us what is it in the CHANGE that your party continues to clamour, when we have seen nothing except change of name of AD to ACN and now to APC or do we vote for another party,” the group noted.

“Ndigbo have campaigned and voted massively for your party in the previous elections except for Presidential elections, but what is our political fortunes, after these years of solid support?”

“Lagos State remains a homeland of Nigeria Multi-Ethnic group, the resource of the State is not found in the rich Oil and Gas or any other natural resource, but rather on the people of Lagos State and proceeds of their labour, on which Ndigbo accounts for a very large percentage.”

“Despite this, Ndigbo are not permitted by your party, All Progressives Congress (APC) to have a political say, by making sure that in the 376 ward seats, 20 LGA seats, 37 LCDA seats, 40 State House seats, 24 Federal House seats, 3 Senatorial Seats, 1 Deputy and 1 Governorship seats, Ndigbo are completely excluded including areas of the State that are predominated by the Igbo residents, except 1 Counilorship seat in Ajegunle.”
“Is your party, APC suggesting that that those who contribute their resource should not have a say on how it should be managed?

“Markets in Lagos State that can be called Ndigbo markets, for instance the Ladipo Auto Parts market as a test case, have been shut down severally and at will, even with pleadings from South-East State Governors were not enough for your APC led government of Lagos State to understand the need to allow these markets function without unnecessary government intrusions. Is there a change to the policy or is it still business as usual?”

“Appointments in Lagos State have never reflected on the constitutional stipulation of carrying all the people of the state along, even at local council levels, particularly in the appointment of judges in the state. Are Yorubas better qualified than other Nigerians in Lagos State?”

“Lagos State Government continues to fund Eyo Festival but leaves the Igbo day Festival or New Yam festival to South-East governors to fund. Should Ndigbo then pay their dues to South-East Sates governments?”

“Lagos State House of Assembly continues to conduct the house business on Yoruba language, translating that Lagos State is now a mono lingual State, is this as a negligence of facts on ground or that Ndigbo offspring in Lagos State should forgo their cultural background or give up their political rights?”

“Various sons and daughters of Ndigbo in Lagos State have complained bitterly over the ridiculous process in practice it is for an Igbo to obtain necessary government approvals without having to go through Yoruba facilitators. Is this to underscore that one race have become superior to another?”

“Areas in the State densely populated by Ndigbo like Coker, Ajao Estate etc.. have not smelt any completed infrastructural development projects of the Lagos State government, or are there?”


“On the deportation of the 72, you have apologized and apology accepted and therefore case closed. We wait patiently for your answers or we shall look for another come February 2015.”

The group however, overlooked the fact that the spokesman of the APC in Lagos State, Mr. Joe Igbokwe and the state commissioner for economic planning are both Ibos.

I keep telling my Ibo people to be humble.

You can't tell your host that you own the house. It won't take long before they kick you out.

Learn to be humble.

You make it hard for your hosts to tolerate you.

Small small, Yorubas will stop patronizing your business and start shunning you. I hope that never happens.

Learn to act like other non-Yoruba tribes in Yorubaland. Don't start demanding a change in culture you met there.

Just like you ask Yorubas to change our Iya Oloja culture. It's rude and disrespectful.

I will advocate for one-Nigeria when Yorubas start getting prominent positions in Igboland.

Thank you my brother. Step by step, together we will get der.

Yorubas slacked when they allow Ibos to migrate in and settle and live anywhere they want.

When I become Governor in Lagos there will be demarcated areas for Ibos to live in. Confine them and their filth to a walled in area and give allow them to vote their own councillor who reports to the Yoruba LG Chairman.
