APGA IS BIAFRA. THE IGBOS ARE JUST SCHEMING TO GET PDP TO lBRING BACK BIAFRA FROM THE NC's REPORT.
I guess the PDP they are unanimously supporting is also Biafra
zimoni:
Port-Harcourt is a foreign name too with huge Igbo population, how come they are not claiming Port-Harcourt to be a No Man's Land?
How about asking for political positions in Kano or Kaduna States based on their huge population there?
Hausas are also many in Lagos yet they are not doing this shitt.
TINUBU, YOU SEE YOUR LIFE? YOU STARTED THIS SHITT.
NOW I UNDERSTOOD BETTER WHY THE HAUSAS TREATED THEM THE WAY THEY DID IN 50s AND 60s. THEY SAW IT COMING.
THIS MADNESS IS GOING TO END SOMEDAY.
YES, SOMEDAY.
NANSENSE.
PHC was never a colonial, conquered and a former capital like lagos. Besides where you have people living and more commercial activities is in Obio/ Akpor Lga which is majorly owned by the uplanders known as the Ikwere. I guess u have never been to ph else you would know this obviously.

I thought you said it was "tribe", despite "tribe" not fitting the context? I guess ya Igbotic accent got the best of you.

Stop writing with an accent, you obnoxious cannibal. grin


Isn't ironical that a "British" is laying claim to Lagos. If you can claim British despite traveling thousands of miles, what stops an Igboman who has been living in Lagos for most part of his life not claim to be Lagosian? While you are at it, I hope you pay your homage of "gratefulness" to your host.

Gbosaa and boss13,

Final message to the both of you:

You're both not built for all these tough talks, and you're both moist/sweeter-than-sugar. So, stop running ya putrid mouths the next time. Having a death wish is more or less self-destruction - you'll just die for nothing.

Be freaking peacemakers and get ya folks to start acting right, before the rivers of blood start flowing. Furthermore, always know that there are different breeds of Yoruba folks: the ones you can run ya mouths to, and the ones that will pierce ya eyes with a fork before asking questions. So, tread carefully.

@Missy89

I'm highly disappointed in you. Never ever tell a first class Yoruba King to apologise again, regardless of what the situation is - Yoruba culture is clear. Especially when those he directed his words to clapped for him, thus showing acceptance. The best thing to do is to avoid the topic and move on. Prince Philip has never apologised for anything in his life, and he has said some of the most hateful things anyone can think of. And the Queen will never be asked to apologise for anything. RESPECT YA OWN CULTURE!

Africa for Africans!

Lagos for Yorubas!

I'm out!

Anyway, we know Lagos as Ilu-Eko before Oyinbo came. And it'd been a successful city for years before it was made capital of Nigeria.

Still copping a plea bargain - bored now.

Why did you stop all the fire and brimstone you were spouting from the first page, acting like you're built like that?

You and I know you aren't built like that - so stop it. You're a puss.y!

Next time, don't go ranting like you can actually do something when you can't. You have got a death wish and you'll just die for nothing. undecided


Plea bargain?? Fire and brimstone on first page??

My stance on your Phoolish chief has not changed. You are a helpless Idi.ot who is consumed by insanity. Your oba is a bully who only threatens innocent people.

What manner of a man threatens his guest like that. Did any of those buffoons who went to his palace disrespect him in words or actions?

Does calling you a tribalist equate to victim's mentality?
You are sad and disillusioned. Quit your rat hole apartment in the UK and bring your sorry bum back to Lagos and show your folks how it is done. You have been moaning here on nairaland about Igbos since Heaven knows when.

Go on and cry about lagos while your mates leave you behind. Go on and rant all you can while the real Igbos and Yoruba folks mingle, progress and move the nation forward. Go on and lament about things that are beyond you and like I said. Seek help before you self destruct.

I would be in Nigeria next month and I hope to meet lots of my Yoruba friends but that wouldn't stop me from telling them that Akiolu is a bugger.

He is a bum and you are an even bigger bum. You have contributed nothing meaningful to life of the average Yoruba man neither have you contributed anything to the revenue of lagos state which I'm certain you couldn't locate on a map.

[quote author=Boss13 post=32490702]From the crowning of Ado as its first Oba, Lagos (then called Eko) served as a major center for slave-trade, from which then Oba of Benin Ado and all of his successors for over four centuries benefitted - until 1841, when Oba Akitoye ascended to the throne of Lagos and tried to ban slave-trading.

Local merchants strongly opposed the intended move, and deposed and exiled the king, and installed Akitoye's brother Kosoko as Oba.[3]

At exile in Europe, Akitoye met with British authorities, who had banned slave-trading in 1807, and who therefore decided to support the deposed Oba to regain his throne. With the success of the British intervention, in 1851 Akitoye was reinstalled as Oba of Lagos. In practical terms, however, British influence over the kingdom had become absolute, and ten years later, in 1861, Lagos was formally annexed as a British colony.

READ UP FOOLS. Your Oba was a makeshift by the British. [/quote

Lagos is a mere myth without IGBOs. Give honour to whom honour is due.


Lagos was a developed state before Nigeria and before independence, before National capital and you and your forefathers ran to Lagos to earn your daily bread because it was a developed and prosperous place so Lagos obviously wasn't a myth, if it was, you why didn't you and your forefathers find some other place to earn your daily bread or even stay in your villages?

Per your ignorant forefathers talking about colonial settlement, are they saying when the English man landed in Lagos the place was empty without any indigenous people on that soil?


How do you even utter such ignorant, idiotic and moronic rubbish about Lagos state with unique and established culture, distinct way of life and dated traditional institutions that you or any other folks outside Yorubaland are not part of and never been part of?

Was the Oba of Eko before colonisation Yoruba, Hausa or Ibo?

Useless child rapist and ritualist, you speak wetin? In as much your oba refuses to apologize, who sent his people to scream "misinterpreted" and try to rewrite what he said. Whether you like it or not, your cowardly oba can't do sh1t, he knows he can't do sh1t that's why his ugly, fat, belly trudging bastard has his people running around remending or retracting his comment.

If you're Ibo and you know what's good for you, steer clear of the polls in Lagos this weekend. [size=13pt]You are warned!!![/size]


Why warning Igbo to steer clear from the polls? Are you scared of their massive voting for JK and their estimated 47% population ensuring that JK wins a whooping landslide over Ambode in Lagos?

Its truly a colonial settlement because names like Epe, Surulere, Egbeda, Ilupeju, Shomolu, Mushin, Ajah, maroko etc are all Colonial names.

Its true again because when the colonial masters came, Lagos was empty. there were no human beings there. So the Colonial masters started speaking Yoruba and began to name all those areas above.

Wow. what a revelation.
