I knew of many yorubas that wanted to vote for agbaje but nw its a no no since dey hv turn it into tribal campaigns all in favor of d ibos,dnt be shocked dat ambode will win wit a big margin.i'm nt an exception.pdp be making mistakes since 2015

I personally know of Yoruba people that hate APC , it's leaders and policies but because of this ibo support for Agbaje they now vow to vote apc enmassse to prove to ibos they don't own Lagos. If ibos like pdp they should go home , strategise and vote pdp. What do they have for 6 years of Jonathan's hard support ? Nothing .

meccuno:
mr man....there are many igbos there.....stop being delusional

when we respect each other we can thrive in another man's land but when over sabi wan set in; d consequence is what we are seeing.

REALODUA:
you fought war with cassava stick and cutlass, next time plan ahead before u declare your biafra

You have no point there,because that is not the basis of our discussion.....Igbos share in the convenant of Israel,that is why we can never be wiped out....this statement of your Oba so,if you ask Fashola,he go tell yu say wetin dat old man dey talk? Fashola knws wat lagos benefit in immigrants (Foolish pple calling igbos immigrants in their own country)

RUBBISH!!!!! Just learn to respect your host. That's all.

Work hard to develop ur land. Kano state government just built the longest flyover in west africa, but you are still begging for 2nd niger bridge. how pathetic.

you only work hard in illegal activities, substandard and fake goods, and crime. take the away and ibo becomes useless.

how come everybody can't stand ibo? ghana, kenya, south africa, burundi, malaysia, india, china?

i saw your brothers telling chinese and india people that they are also lazy and jealous of ibos. imagine that? countries known for very high cerebral things. ibo man no go kill me with self-appraisal and wasteful arrogance. tribe of useless noisemakers.

I know you kill yourself to buy all those things you called substandard, that shows how useless and substandard your life is.

MY BROTHERS THE SOONER WE START INVESTING AT HOME THE BETTER IT WILL BE FOR US..

ENOUGH OF ALL THIS ONE NIGERIA NONSENSE..

Lyoncrescent:
thanks for attempting to tell me who I am but I know who I am . I carry a nigerian passport and fly the nigerian flag and if I am outside this country to achieve any great thing,my achievement is first of all a nigerian achievement. You will be shocked to know even some lagosians don't like to marry ijebus and so many other disparities within the Yoruba community. I'm a Yoruba boy but I will always put national interest first before ethnic interests. I think as a Nigerian and not carried away by cultural bias.

Oshe Mr. Patriotic
I was just stating things in chronological order. My statements never reeked of cultural bias.

About people not marrying from some certain groups in their tribe, it's normal, it's not exclusive to the Yoruba tribe.

emiye:


I know of ibo elites (orji uzor kalu) and Massob e.t.c who made such statements during the anambra ibo destitues relocation to their states debacle.


Traditional titles are over a kingdom / land, so when the stool holder of such kingdom/land is told by settlers that his land is no mans land, you have desecrated his stool, and throwing insult on his forebearers. If yorubas in Onitsha begin to say Onitsha is no mans land, they are denigrating the stool of the Obi of Onitsha. Manytimes, we fail to understand action and reaction are equal but opposite.

If you say MASSOB said this then it is big lie, dunno about Orji Uzor Kalu. Did you even know the meaning of MASSOB. if they say that, it means they are going against their name.

Even so was this purported statement made during or after the Oba accused the Igbo

XBLadez:

People are different, bro. Some Igbos, like myself, were born here in Lagos; others were brought here. So u can't expect all of us to have the same mentality. I, too, used to believe Yoruba girls don't go outside their tribe until I met my girl, who's now my fiancee

my senior bro is married to an Igbo lady,same as my cousin,most of the Igbos I know that are born in Lagos think differently from others, they are more Lagosian than a yoruba man from Ibadan the camaraderie between Yorubas and Igbos in Lagos is stronger than an Igbo man who grew up in Enugu and a man from Ibadan.

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 ibos everywhere, if i may ask?

Even though my best friend chidiebere is igbo, He is a good man, he is humble and upright, he is like a bro, we met in lagos during nysc, he was born&raised in lagos! and i am for JK coz tinubu is runing lagos like a personal company,....the BOLDED is very true! ibos cannot try this in the north and cannot accept same in their homeland.

GodMode:


Igbo have very pretty girls so the other tribes... But what did u see in your yoruba fiance

Words can't describe it. But all I can say is, she's the only girl I see marriageable

lastmessenger:
Igbos should be the one writing this and not the Yorubas. We the igbos own Lagos and nobody can take that away from us. In no time we would buy all the lands in ogun state and rename the streets with igbo names.
Igbo people are a special race and even the bible and quoran prophesied about it.

Come to ijebu,and u'll be transported back in bags

gmyguy:
oya now...you no talk again

bro before u told me u were living in lagos which side are you. ....?

Ademat7:
CALABAR; The city once served as the seat of Government of

and Oil River Protectorate. It is thus effectively the
first Nigerian capital city.-wikipedia. Why dnt u pple reside there?

E no get port

I'm yoruba and i'll say what the oba said was totally uncalled for. It is statements like this that causes ethnic division. What is bad is bad.
However that being said, the igbos should not let politicians fuel an obvious goof and cause a further divide. Once elections are over, all these politicians realign with the ruling party and leave the hatred festering in the minds of ordinary nigerians until they return to it in 2019.

After the results, una all go still live together. Haba. But I have to say this Jonathan's government has been the most divisive I have ever seen in nigeria.

point taken sir. It just goes to show that there are inter tribal and intra tribal divisions.

Lol! You now understand what I mean. This is why I try to avoid the Ibo-Yoruba debate, coz if I say something bad against Yoruba, I'd be abusing my future wife as well

Does this justify why betrayer is an integral part of your blood system?. Why not be a man nd speak out....Supporting GEJ in the front nd being a wolf behind him

ahizih:
All i see is jealousy from those set of dirty,smelling and cowards called yoruba tribe. That's why i prefer hausa man to a yoruba man,cux hausa man will make undstnd dat he is angry wit u, but an average yoruba man is a saboteur n a coward

Yes hausa man will make an ibo man understands he is angry with him by slicing him with his sweet dagger..yet a yoruba man makes him understand he is angry with him by engaging him in a reasonable argument...which one is better? Shit face!

CHM11:

Ehen..me I know some igbos can be extremely obnoxious, arrogant, annoying and weird...especially those who grew up in the eastern part of the country.
That said, I still believe every Nigerian is a citizen of the country and is constitutionally free to occupy and do anything lawful anywhere in this country. Voting for their preferred candidate is Lawful so pls let us hear word.
The south west also benefit via federal allocations from funds derived from crude oil extracted majorly from the south south. So why shouldn't other people feel free to benefit from your Land.?
Not in support of the igbos though and their utterances though, because obviously, no south eastern state will accept such utterances from another tribe in their state.

Imagine a yoruba or Hausa or even Delta man saying they will produce the next governor of Anambra state because Anambra is a no mans land and a colonial settlement.

Igbos that I know in the south east will eat such person for dinner.

I find it funny when a Yoruba man that grew up in Yorubaland says the Igbo man who was raised in the East behaves funny,seriously how do you want him to behave? Like a Yoruba man?Frankly,it portrays you as lacking in maturity and exposure,I've been around other tribes enough to appreciate the fact we all have our traditional values.. And as per your analogy of a Yoruba wanting to become a Governor in the East,if am not mistaken Jimmy Agbaje,the last time I checked was a Yoruba man,you don't have to like the Igbos,it's your prerogative,but Igbos are Nigerians and as such are neither Aliens nor Immigrants anywhere in Nigeria,the Yoruba were among the front line actors who made sure the Igbos are still in the present Nigeria,by their actions during the Civil War,so why the complaints..

linusbnn:

Fashola knws wat lagos benefit in immigrants (Foolish pple calling igbos immigrants in their own country)

when you go to USA , Germany and the likes , you don't tell them this is no mans land . You show them respect and gratitude. When your brothers come to Lagos they change the history saying ibo own the land. As for fasola, he's deceiving you condemning the oba, how much he praise him behind camera u lot don't know. Whole thing design to make PDP loose by margin. Now most Yoruba will vote apc in Lagos cos of this

I wonder where all this kinds of nonses warning are coming from,because it make no sense at all

chrisviral:


E no get port

he get;I went to wikipedia just to confirm the. Resources they leave in their own land to pursue another man's own. FYI togo and benin r welcoming mass igbo pple movt opening chain shops there

[quote author=LordExecutioner post=32582716][/quote]

I'm an igbo man but I believe the majority of yorubas are not as daft as whoever wrote this neither are they as daft as those who will support dis on here. The use of the words "host" and "visitor" in this context can only be applied by those who are very myopic and unexposed. If truly this came from a particular body representing the yoruba people in any sense then I think the yorubas should be quick to dissociate themselves from such party.

This whole drama of Agbaje/Ambode clearly the hypocrisy that exist within a Yoruba man's mind.

The ignorance of the Yoruba people who hates Igbos with passion is sickening.

BTW Lagos was not build by the cocoa farmers of Ijebu or cassava planters of Ogun alone but by the collective effort , hard work, tax payment etc of millions of Igbos and other ethnic origins who trooped to invest and call Lagos their home.

Yoruba tribalistic ppl here are backward with stone age mentality.

London as big as it is, is seen today by that average India born, living and working with British passport as his home and his city, how much more Lagos a city in our own country being used as a tribal war.

All this because a Yoruba son , Jimi Agbaje in his campaign promises declared respecting and caring for the welfare of non indigenes of which Igbos are among.

Shame on those whose mind are thwarted by bigotry, prejudice and tribalism.

Shame on those who on paper say we are one but on the inside full of envy and discriminatory thoughts.

Shame on those who want to take glory on other mens hard work in the name of tribe.

Shame on those who think their ethnic group is better and more superior than others.

Shame on you who for some reason out of tribal hatred glorify the murderous threat of a shameless Oba against the people of Igbo land.

Long live Ndi Igbo
Long live Yorubas

Long live One Nigeria.

Bigotry is evil. Say no to tribalism, Arrogance, Hatred and threats of violence against other ethnic groups.

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 developed with palm proceeds 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 post-war and unjust 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.States like oyo produce nothing but collect one of highest allocation.

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 drink 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.

I owe you a hug!

This nothing but nonsense, the person that put up this write up most be a lunatic, ambode, and Agbaje are all yorubas, with the igbos in lagos, lagos won't develop to this level. If some of you think you can deprive igbos, our investment, just try and see what will happen. Noise makers, we believe in action

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!

the igbos need to talk to the 30% of them that is given them a bad name. not all are unruly and disrespectful. Especially those ones in the market

The real lagosians have been complaining for years Oba just voiced out what his subjects are saying.

Epe Ikorodu Ibeju Lekki are all in the so called Lagos state, they are anscentral homes of many people. This places are as local as any nigerian village where customs and culture is paramount.
Eko is lagos island and Vi which was the colonial trading post where lagos became popular for. Cotonu too is similar but less populated.

YOu can live anywhere you want be courteous to your hosts who knows your history and when your population started mass migrating to the SW

mirakuru:

Yes hausa man will make an ibo man understands he is angry with him by slicing him with his sweet dagger..yet a yoruba man makes him understand he is angry with him by engaging him in a reasonable argument...which one is better? Shit face!

the only thing they understand Is that hausa mans knife, we don't do that and bunch of them idiot won't appreciate we Yoruba for that

I think the Igbos have been given too much room in Lagos and that is why they are making such utterances.
They should be ejected from Lagos and be given a visa to stipulate the time they will stay if they wish to come back.

Can they take all this rubbish in their land.
