Well said. If a visitor is becoming too arrogant to the person that accommodate him,definitely he will be shown his way back to where he's coming from. I don't know how a visitor will be claming too know of another's property. The best thing is to throw them out of Lagos let them go back to their land and develop their place. At the same time I can't blame them is useless PDP that want power by all means I will blame. They are the one giving them too much popularity and they will later regret it.Is it possible for any other tribe to do all this nonsense in their state?Bunch of ingrate.Lagos give you opportunity to be part of their government by appointing you commissioners,hon and other benefits but you can't think to appreciate rather to be ungrateful.Like I used to tell your ibo fellows that yorubas don't like problem but if you put us to the wall you will see hell more than what Oba Akiolu said.In term of everything in the country and around the world we senior you.Education,population,money,international c.If it leads to war honestly speaking you will go down in history.just a little word for you!

ThisMeansWAR:
my dad schooled in Ghana and he loved it so much and people of Ghana... Ibo people starts migrating to Ghana, everything changed...

REALODUA:
looks like my ibo neighbours son exactly . Big head , empty brain !

mobuch:


If these are all u think ibo business men do in nigeria, despite the abundant popular companies we own in nigeria, then am sorry to say that, sir, you are an idioot

gbosaa:


Who is Mr Akiolu that he can not be criticised especially with that silly threats which you patronising dishonest bunch are calling jokes?

This man is oba to Lagosians, he is not the oba of Nigeria.

Obj was made fun of, caricatured and compared to apes, he laughed it off. Jonathan and his wife were abused, swore at and called as sorts of names ranging from..clueless to illiterate but heaven did not fall.

Both Obj and GEJ were president to nearly 200m citizens of Nigeria with different obas, Ezes, Emirs and other Chiefs. Heaven didn't fall when these men were turned to comic reliefs even when they haven't done anything to warrants the insults.

Can you compare your oba of Lagos to these men? This man had contributed to the reason why some police men wear flip flop on duty, torn uniform, faded shirts and rusty weapons, if he wasn't oba today, what would he be doing?

Why couldnt he act like a wise elder and control his emotions and utterances. You people respond as if there was a sort of coup de tat or conspiracy to dethrone him.

Who is oba of Lagos that people should keep quiet when he says nonsense?you threaten people with death and guys are calling it jokes? Some phhools are talking about burning properties , looting and killing as if that would solve the problem.

Why don't you people leave the Igbos alone and face your problems. Anybody looking for a fight should go to Kwara state and put an everlasting end to the incessant rampages of fulani herdsmen.

EroticAngelina:
RUBBISH!!!!! arrant nonsense!!!!
These Yoruba ppl are so selfish and pompous!

If not that Lagos was once the capital of Nigeria, It would have been a local minor state like every other state in this country!!
This discrimination towards Igbo people by yorubas is getting out of hand!
for starters, why on earth should that useless oba threaten igbos in Lagos?? Are we not free to vote whoever we want?? That oba and his supporters are sent to destroy the peace of this country!

What I really wanna understand is what exactly did Igbo ppl do to this man
This inhumane discrimination has been going on for a long time! As long as u are a citizen of Nigeria, u have every right to settle down wherever u want in Nigeria.

we don't discriminate against any tribe in igboland, so why should they? In case they didn't know, igbos also took part in developing Lagos. Igbos are the most hardworking ppl in Nigeria(and I'm not saying that bkus I'm Igbo, its the fvcking truth. just like everybody knows Yorubas like education and parties)

for Pete's sake, we are the same ppl, human beings. just like someone said, tribes are just created to give power, it doesn't differentiate u from others.

#peace!

Calling his land "no mans land". There can be no greater insult to a kings throne than to call his kingdom no mans land.

Aplaudir. 100000000likes.

ibos are the problem in nigeria. hardworking in crime, baby factories, and illegal businesses.

ibo causing problems everywhere he finds himself since 1900.

omortoyosi01:
You are free to return home. We Yoruba are not causing disruption in your homeland; you have no right to continue to cause disruption in our homeland.

tete7000:
Where are the moderators. Thread like this ought not be allowed to linger. It ought to have been closed!

streetzdreamz:
you aint really sensible,same way ur maturity level is below average!!!what those so called elites,professionals spewed up there is nothing but nonsense as TEMITEMi rightly said,and u went ahead to call him a bastard cuz his opinion differs from urs,hell yea am a yoruba guy and I disagree with whateva d said Oba uttered,matters of National security,death\life shouldn't be a subject to joke with,and yes we adore our elders in yorubaland and the king is more like a small god,but he lost his respect d very moment he went into politics!!!y'al screaming igbos are on our land,thriving and later revolting against their host community,will do much worse if u are in their shoes!remove igbos from d affairs of lagos,nigeria as a whole and see how the economy will take a nosedive,hausa,igbo,yoruba we all need eachother in dis country,but when tribalistic beings like ya'l steps in with ur hatred and bias turts I wonder how d unborn generations will pull tru since learned men are nw worst dan illiterates dis days,all with clouded judgements and sentiments....for dis very reason I hope Jimi wins d polls inasmuch as he is a yoruba man,but from a different political body.

Lyoncrescent:
A man is a man. A Tribe is a tribe. A man should be judged as a man. I know a lot of ibo men and women in Lagos that are better personalities than Yoruba men and women. All this tribalism has to stop. Every individual should be treated without any negative stereotype . The tragedy is the greatest tribalists are often well learned showing the Nysc is a waste of time. We need to change our mindset. Lagos is like London.It is a melting point of culture and commerce. The true Londoners by origin are probably less than 10percent and that's what's going to happen in Lagos enventually.I'm Yoruba and from Lagos by origin from the durosimi-eti lineage but I dare say it's not just the Yorubas that make lagos great. It's the ibos,ijaws, Hausas, fulanis, urobhos and over 50 other cultures and ethnicities that have representation in Lagos. I am first of all a Nigerian before Yoruba not the other way round . One Love people

Cashio:
igbos held the whole of nigeria for three good yrs despite help from international communities with just locally manufactured ammunitions let alone ordinary yoruba faction........bro you joking

gmyguy:
yet all the land belong to yorubas, why do you think when Sanusi became Emir, he was untouchable...GEJ can do nathing, and you guys did not develop Lagos, y'all just came here to survive...that's the blunt truth.

OdenigboAroli2:

this is a picture of the oba of lagos brain.

ezstino:



I am Igbo but I swear u sound arrogant! Agreed that Igbos have the constitutional rights to live freely in Lagos but the host community and the indigenes deserve some resect. They said lagos is their land and not a a 'No mans land' why can't you respect that?

Irrespective of what the Oba of Lagos said, the Yorubas stil expect u to respect the throne because its an institution!

Meanwhile I strongly frown at the Oba's statement. As a royal father, I expect him to know better.

gmyguy:

Well, i guess you don't know that even God respects Kings...The Oba is a king...Obasanjo, Gej and Buhari will come and Go and the King remains...albeit, Lagos is smaller than Nigeria, but he is the King of Lagos, as the Queen of England has been on her throne since before you were born and her legacy lives, so also the King of Lagos legacy lives...With all the Ezes in iboland and Lagos ...you ought to know this, but you guys are either disrespectful/ just like to be stubborn, but you need to be educated.

bomijuwon:

There are large concentration of Igbo in Kano and Kaduna, let them tried this sort of de stabilisation there or insult their Emir and we all wait to see the outcome. Please go through history and learn.

OperationIgrigi:
**grins** If the so-called yorubas cannot pick up arms and pull out of Nigeria, then they are just blowing hot air. Lagos was develop with palm proiceeds from the east, groundnut proceeds from the north and Oil proceeds from the SS(which also have large indigenous Igbo population). The yorubas can not reap where they did not sow.

Majority of workers in NNPC and Chevron are yorubas who got there because of yoruba administrative influence of the likes of kupolokun and others.

If yorubas want non-indigenes to leave lagos, it is very achievable but..

1. They must declare an independent country from Nigeria. They can't eat their cake and have it. (ie They can't drink peoples oil and still keep FG developed Lagos to themselves.)

2. Severe themselves from the oil proceeds they get from regions belonging to "strangers". No cup-in-hand oil allocation for them.

3. Start building a border post at Ore with immediate effect, infact odua diaspora can fund that.

4. Recall all their indigenes schooling and working in oil coys and banks in the East. Including their herbal drimk sellers.

5. Otedola, Mike Adenuga, and their oil billionaires and owners must relinquish their Oil wells and Oil Mining Licenses.

6. Publicly burn and denounce the Constition of Nigeria that guarantees every Nigerian equal rights.

Until they meet these very achievable condition these guys should channel their noisemaking and energy in donating toilet facilities for their families in oyo, osun and kwara. It's more pertinent.

bomijuwon:

This Igbo people will not learn. I warn that this issue should tread softly. This was how many northern/Igbo mayhem starts. The Surdana Sokoto said it. The Igbo likes to migrate but will want to dominate their host communities interest.

LordExecutioner:


everywhere ibos go, they cause trouble.

imagine ibos going all the way to china to tell chinese people that they're jealous of hardworking Igbos? video is on youtube.


india, malaysia, south africa, china, burundi, kenya; nobody likes ibo.

why?

gmyguy:
well, when points finish, na brainless yabs remain, that's why Iboland does not have a single prominent King, cos you guys are disrespectful. Maybe if you had, he would have developed Iboland, so you guys will not be running all over the world trying to survive

Ilekeh:
List those abundant companies. At least 20 of them.

I know of iya Ngozi's bukka, but name more.

LordExecutioner:


hardworking in illegal businesses and crime. work smart and be legal for a better lagos, and stop chest beating bleating everywhere like a goat.

can 90% of ibo businesses in Lagos thrive if there's law and order? NO.

why do ibos cause trouble everywhere? ghana, kenya, south africa, burundi, malaysia, india, china etc.? Why is it just everywhere, if i may ask?

ddami:
is because the environment is enabling and conducive that's why u are thriving here. n.b Lagos has about 20mill people living in it so d customer base z here.u can't compare d kind of Money u make here 2 whatever u will make in Enugu.agbaje z just a YORUBA man u prefer.he was once in dis same APC.serious shit happens in Nigeria's politics......

Doncolio:


Voting Agbaje does nothing to change that statement, rather it goes to show the Yoruba man you prefer.
