He apologised, and that's begging. So, when is he going to beg the Northerners?

He was invited and he had to dress in Igbo clothes, with all his teeth out, no? Is that how Igbo governors campaign in their region, with Yoruba clothes on? You lot don't understand the power image carries. He isn't contesting to rule Nigeria - Lagos is Yorubaland.
It was an ibo gathering - a kind of fundraising for him. He was invited. There were very few Yorubas around - his aides.
ibo funds dont smell o!

I'm cock sure he didnt wear those ibo rags from his house neither did he wear them back home.

The news/pix was only on NL. Didnt see it elsewhere. Wasn't news worthy afterall.

My fore fathers formed a country called Biafra and they were made to capitulate and embrace one Nigeria by your fore-fathers. It was a famous victory, and it is now my duty, as an Igbo man, to protect one Nigeria. Integration is important for one Nigeria. Integration implies being able to vote or be voted for in any part of Nigeria.

I have told you that you must remove the idea of domination from your head. Nobody intends to do that. You shame the efforts of your fore-fathers when you reason like that. If Igbos were as domineering as you implied, then I don't think your fore-fathers would have deemed it fit to fight for a United cause.
Your forefathers try to steal Nigerian oil immediately after it's discovery but our forefathers teach them a lesson they took to their grave. Your generation is following the same greedy path as your ancestors better you desist now before you bring the same havoc to yourself.

I can see that your mates are quick to like your comment. You guys should be sure of what you want. If you want Lagos for yourselves, why did you waste men and resources trying to stop the emergence of Biafra? Hummmm?

Lol, you need foot soldiers as well, trust me. Take a look at America, and how the white government is somewhat lenient on white supremacy groups. And why even black folks there still maintain militant groups like the new panther party. Everywhere in Europe is the same. Then look at the UK, and how they allowed EDL/BNP metamorphose into Ukip. Even Russia maintains the Cossacks. Bruv, it's all a game. grin

Countries in North Africa and Middle East are also very interesting. They've tribal leaders, and militant wings. And the reason they do that is basically for territorial integrity. Human beings are naturally connected to their lands.
Bruh they can afford to do all that foolishness in those countries because they are somewhat civilized and at ease so they need a bit of unease to keep them on their toes. lagos is already a jungle and a hotbed of crazed lunatics ranging from the popo to the army to everybody with some form of perceived authority trying to impose their will. we dont need another group of terrorists in lagos. we have enough as it is. i think the best way as i said earlier is deeding all land to the yoruba govt and only leasing it out. no freeholds. thats all. this way you can relax without needing to put additional terrorists on the streets cheesy

I'm not even going to lie, that picture cracked me up. And the fact that he kicked of his campaign with it, shows how weak these folks are. They pander to them too much, hence the sense of entitlement. If he's going to do that with Igbos - he might as well do it with all the other non-Yoruba groups in Lagos, to create a balance.

Yoruba leaders are the problem. They're all rogues who only care about political gains, and selfish interests.

It is happening. The governorship position is a matter of time. A non- Yoruba governor of Lagos State will happen soon despite the loud antagonism from a few like you. Lagos will be the starting point of true unity in Nigeria. If this fact gets you angry, then I can't help you because I am only stating facts.
It's happening in your mind.

If Fulanis cant rule Kwara politically after conquering Ilorin over a century ago, ibos can NEVER rule Lagos where they have NO cultural foothold/territory/conquest.

ibos are behind northerners when we rank tribes resident in Lagos. Get LASG handbook on Lagos for more info.

Can you point a yorubaman in politics or in any political position in any state in the east?if you can then you have every right to fight for relevance in lagos.

I laugh when reading this letter...I think the Igbos need to know their position in Lagos and other state in the west(Immigrant)the earlier they do d better for them.The west belongs to the Yorubas and the east belongs to the Igbos,if you seeking relevance in another man s land than you must follow the right way not forcing for it.

i remember around 2005 when i was travelling from Lagos to Akwa ibom(MAN oron)we boarded a bus with my group of friends from mile 2(evergreen)to Akwa ibom which was the final busstop or destination but on getting to one eastern state(i cant remember again)the bus driver stopped the bus and told us to find our way to awka ibom just because we were the only group heading to that direction,we confronted the driver because of the earlier agreement and final bustop (awka ibom)to my greatest surprise the driver denied us and threaten to kill us if we dont Run but because we were persistent about our initial agreement he(driver)called some garage touts on us,they arrived with broken bottles and plank shouting STUPID YORUBAS,THIS IS NOT YORUBA LAND.WE WILL KILL YOU PEOPLE,we ran for our dear lives.

it is the same people that re calling for relevance in another man s land,so many igbos believe that they contributed to development of Lagos BIG JOKE.but i can tell you that it is the western states,lagos and other state that has helped you and your eastern state to grow in development.if not for the western states,the eastern state will continue to be a slum and shamble.
You are very correct. That is exactly what an igbo driver did to me on my way to Makurdi. I boarded the bus at Iyana Ipaja only for the driver to stop at Upper Iweka in Onitsha and asked us to find our ways. While we argued this with him, he called some touts and some of us were roundly beaten and robbed. It was another igbo okada rider that saved me when he realised the situation I was into. He said he had lived in Osogbo and that he loves our people.
I hardly take online igbo trolls serious because they are just empty chest beaters. Majority of them that I have interracted with outside nairaland and in the east are loving, caring and law abiding citizens...though some are worse but they belong to the minority.

Lol, if civilised countries can't indirectly use militant groups to get the message across - and tell whoever cares to listen that they own the land. Why can't you create something similar in the jungle, since that's the only language jungle bunnies understand? - I'm just thinking out loud. They don't need to be violent, the scare tactics would help a lot.

Then maintain a balance with what you posited. And also make folks assimilate into the culture. Questioning the culture and language of ya host is unacceptable. Assimilate or fvck off.

[b]Nigeria's unity is a settled issue. UNITED WE STAND, DIVIDED WE FALL. We are Nigerians and Nigeria is ours. Every single part of Nigeria belong to NIGERIANS.

Those that sow the seed of discord in the name of ethnic plurality and religious fundamentalism will be defeated by the hard earned unity of Nigeria. Souls were avoidably lost in a regrettable civil war to sustain the unity of this great nation. The loss of those souls must not be in vain.

LAGOS STATE aka EKO aka LAS GIDI is a reflection of Nigeria's strength and unity. Lagos was created as a gathering point of NIGERIANS from every nook and cranny of our beautiful nation. In Lagos state, it is difficult to differentiate people based on their ethno religious nationality. LAGOS IS OWNED BY NIGERIANS. The tribal homogeneity of Lagos disappeared with the end of the civil war and the declaration of NO VICTOR, NO VANQUISHED.

Those of you threatening mayhem against Igbos are not aware of how complicated the task will be. You don't understand that Nigeria's unity supersedes spurious ethnic claims. What you seek has been settled decades ago. IT CAN NEVER, I repeat, IT CAN NEVER HAPPEN AGAIN. The moment you start it is the moment you will face the wrath of the Living and the Dead.

NIGERIA WAS SIGNED AND STAMPED WITH BLOOD. YOU HAVE NO CHOICE BUT TO DUMP YOUR ETHNIC BIGOTRY AND ACCEPT EVERY NIGERIAN AS YOUR BROTHER OR SISTER IRRESPECTIVE OF TRIBE.[/b]
I cannot argue with this. Lagos Government must reflect the predominant multi-cultural chracter of Lagos State and Nigeria.

Actually this makes no sense as much as it appeals to emotions - but let us appeal to logic and pragmatism instead.

As much as you've tried to sound 'exposed' you've failed to realize border is not solely a boundary demarcation of or within geographical territories but rather it cuts across religion and culture.

The problem the world orAfrica has/faces to a larger extent is creating a supposed 'union' where there should not be any and as a result mutual respect, unity and trust fades and ethnic suspicion arose, mutual assured destruction sprang up. E.g the Rwandan genocide, ethnic cleansing in Eastern Europe, Darfur Crisis, Kano Pogrom of 1966 etc.

The west that supposedly ingrained the need for 'unity' in your mind saw the need to sustain multi-cultural society, respect these diffferences and structure countries along these multiplicity - U.K, resolution of Yugoslavia wars resulting into creation of states, Quebec status in Canada.

The foregoing shows that your Ogas in the West know that there will never be mutual respect, unity and trust when lines in a naturally delineated society are not accorded proper respect; merging conflicting factors will create chaos.

Belgium for example is a multi-ethnic society but the necessary factors to sustain the multiplicity of their country has been put in place and neither do the Flemings nor Wallons free threatened. They have unity, trust and mutual respect because their differences are properly managed along delineated lines.

I hope you follow my drift here.

And lastly, a person preaching head in the clouds unity needs to know using 'other tribes' is inappropriate in that the word 'tribe' is arguably derogatory.
Seriously, dude, you didn't make any sense! You blab your way through and end up with nonsensical conclusion without substance to intelligent minds. Your examples clearly point out the reasons why we need unity so that humanity can progress. Stop being typically a tad. Smh...

"RULE" is a wrong word to use. Don't be scared, nobody will rule you. "GOVERN" is the right word. Good governance does not come with ethnic affiliation. Competent non-Yorubas will govern Lagos State soon. Hopefully, you will see that you have nothing to be scared of.

When people show you love, you'll be forced to reciprocate. The problem with ibos is that they say something online and do the exact opposite in real life.

If you see the way they comport themselves in Lagos, you'll marvel. Their fccck up gets treated instantly. Any ibo that falls into the hands of LASG paramilitary agencies or common agbero is mince meat. Hence, they are very careful!

I dont know why they always claim to be what they are not online. If only they can tame their tongues/fingers.

Nobody is Scared here in the west of you Easterners of you trespasses. If you want us here in the West to accept you people in base on your philosophy below, stage it first in your region.
Then when we see that then we will in part know you know what you are saying if at all.
Remarkable:
You may say that Yorubas are not cowards, but that is hard to believe when on a thread like this, all you see is fear, fear and more fear expressed in peoples post. "We will do this" and "we will do that."

In the thread on Okoroji's declaration it was the same thing... why are they scared?

In the advanced countries that we keep comparing Nigeria to, any body from any part of the country, as long as you have a passport, your coming out to run for office will e seen as a sign of the country maturing and being more cosmopolitan.

Arnold became governor, yet we all know where he was from before becoming a naturalized American.

Making noise doesn't make you look tough or mature or whatever... it propagates the notion of cowardice that you seem to want to dissociate Yorubas from.

So, with all the money they have looted, while turning the whole state into a private estate - he still couldn't resist whatever meagre amount they gave him? Especially when the premise for that is a compromise with a condescending image, no? A lot of these Yoruba folks are Esau/Judas - they'll sell their souls for a plate of porridge. Greedy fvckers! grin Not shocking since Awolowo was betrayed as well.

Oh, so all those cries from Nigeria during the Lagos deportation saga were also just online threats, no? And also FFK taking on loads on Igbos over the Lagos issue, no? You lot love living in denial. Just accept that Yorubas are soft, end of story. grin

I hear that. But they can't allow them compromise the culture and language. I don't want to go to a place that's meant to be Yorubaland, and start feeling I'm in an Igbo enclave. I'm not Igbo and I'm not interested in the culture. grin

Yes Ambode has worn Hausa outfit before and the same with Ijaw. He is campaigning to be the Governor of every resident of Lagos State and it's a good and diplomatic thing to recognize all the major tribes in Lagos. It has nothing to do with money but wanting to let everyone in Lagos feel included , knowing that when elected he will look after the needs of everyone. APC government in Lagos is about uniting people and doing what's best for Lagos development which is having a good relationship with all tribes, having a good atmosphere for everyone's businesses to thrive . That is why I laugh when the trolls here saying they want to vote PDP, the same PDP that deceived them that they would choose an Igbo person as deputy governor undecided .Now that dosent mean they give into ridiculous demands, The government will always monitor all markets no matter which tribe feels they are majority there and Lagos state will never fund non indigenous festivals...e.t.c no one will give them posts just because they because they ask for it , they should go and campaign like everyone else and if the people vote them in that's fine.

Even when Fashola addressed the deportation issue he told them the truth , that they should focus more on developing their land
