Your ignorance is epic.

Have you ever asked yourself why most riots and slaughtering of ibos in the north tend to happen on Fridays after their Jumat prayers? What do you think they are told in their mosques?

And how did Kabiyesi "instigate" us? Did you listen to his historic speech at all? Did he instruct his loyal subjects to drown you lot in the lagoon or what rubbish are you saying?

Stop trying to "sensationalise" your posts with adjectives that have no relevance with the issue at hand.

Look, I'm done conversing with your flat_head abeg.

I need to get dressed for Ambode's victory speech and rally he will also be paying homage to Kabiyesi in the next few hours.

Obviously you talk too much. And like your lots, your tongue is full of insults.

Hope you have read Adichie's article. You may need to do a rejoinder.

I am suggesting a 10 year relocation after dredging of niger river and deep sea port in Akwa ibom and Bayelsa

Niger delta should be ready to disallow or oil companies without its head quarters in niger delta.

First when and if lagos becomes unbearable and uninhabitable for igbos, a new wave of igbo migration will start and Abuja will likely be the benefactor.
Out of the 6 systemic banks in the country igbos control zenith, uba, access and diamond bank, this would likely relocate to Abuja and that with their data centers and IT unit necessitating the movement of IT service Companies.

The next in line would be the multi-billion Naira telecommunications companies of which igbos chair 3 of them MTN, visa phone and swift, the anti igbophism will force these companies to relocate to Abuja with their billing and switches leading to massive staff relocation with their families, already Etisalat head quarters is in Abuja.
Abuja would now be the new telecommunications capital as telecom engineering and service companies will set up shops in Abuja.

As igbos leave lagos for Abuja their niger delta brothers and neighbours who are yet to recover from the mother of all betrayal and back stabbing would follow suit because many of them have strong igbo connection in business and marriage.

The next industry that would be hit is the music industry, the leading stars of the nigerian music industry, Don jazzy, P square, flavour, Nigga Raw etc would move where ever their major fans and family move to, this would compel new recording companies to spring up in Abuja where folks like Charlie boy is already in the wait.

The Nollywood actors ,actresses, producers would also take flight as the major consumers of their products would have moved.

The next set of people who will move are the importers, spare parts traders in Ladipo, electronic dealers in Alaba, the clothing dealers in tejuosho ,the generator part dealers in oregun, the inter state transport companies ,the haulage firms, the logistics companies like chisco, ekene, peace, ABC transport, Abex, ifex who might not find it initially easy but can start now to start opening alternative head offices in Abuja and the east, deploying cheaper and cost effective means of moving goods from the ports in yaounde Cameroon and through the eastern ports to the new offices in the east and Abuja .

finally igbo owned pharmaceutical , IT companies, hospitals like havana hospital, eko, first consultant ,signal alliance, zinox, cyberspace , computer warehouse, neimeith, ,lagos business school ,orange drugs, techno, slot, should by now be aware of recent developments in lagos .

What are they taking themselves for (sic)?

That they are entitled to vote for who ever they want without a traditional bigot threatening their life.

Is that too much to ask?

everyone is entitled to his/her own opinion,but my brother this is too much, Igbo they are going to present deputy gov in Lagos in 2019 haba,can any other tribe try such thing in Igbo land,come to think of it,No other tribe in nigeria that can ever give free hand others like Yoruba's, But you are taking us for fool.its only that we want peace to reign,OK answer this question for me,In Nigeria today name region where peace reign like southwest. My brother this is how Fulani start their vown in Ilorin go read the history of ilorin ,where Yoruba give Fulani free hand later,today do you believe Fulani are now claiming Ilorin that they own Ilorin because they are now ruling in Ilorin.We will not allow what happenen in Ilorin to repeat itself in Lagos lae.

ekenedegreat:
Who told u that it is only the igbos that commits crime in those countries you mentioned? So you re trying to tell us that your tribe re innocent of those crimes. ok keep dreaming

NO MIND THE ANIMAL, JUST ASK HIM WHO KILLED A SOLDIER IN UK, OR WHO BOARDED FLIGHT WITH BOMB TO AMERICA

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 connection etc we are not your mate.If it leads to war honestly speaking you will go down in history.just a little word for you!

Ewu can bear worst come to worst we go na but before leaving we will burn our houses and render d Yorubas homeless, d last time I checked most houses in lagos r owned by ibos durr and u guys r our tenants.

Y r u guys so daft mind u Lagos was a state capital so what do u guys expect, don't Yoruba ppl get political post in Abuja too, gush how I so hate u guys mentality r all d yorubas here lagosians y don't u go to ur mud house filled villages too

frisby:


Very mature sir.
Kindly give yourself a round of applause.


@ post.

Did you all see the mature way the oodua addressed the matter?

I'm igbo, and proudly so.
But I say shame to the Igbos and yoruba who are handling this issue like blindfolded fools.

Please act like people with some bit of enlightenment.

I'm getting sick of all these.
Infact I wish neither Pdp nor Apc wins the lagos governorship office. When did elections become about political party or ethnic group?

Shouldn't we be voting a leader based on our HONEST assessment of his character?
This is why our nation is still where it is.
It's alright to support a fool/thief, provided he is a member of a particular tribe, political party, church, etc. That shows just how primitive out intelligence is.

DEAR NIGERIANS, PLEASE LET'S GROW UP, let's work together to build a nation EVERYONE will be proud to raise children in

THANK YOU, BUT WE IGBOS BELIEVE THAT AGBAJE CAN NOT DEPORT SOME IGBOS FROM LAGOS TO EAST, WE KNOWS THAT AGBAJE CAN NOT PUT MUCH TAX ON IGBOS, AND STRONGLY BELIEVE THAT AGBAJE CAN NEEVER GIVE US A YORUBA MAN AS A MARKET CHAIRMAN WHERE A YORUBA MAN DON'T HAVE COMMON KIOSK IN THE MARKET ETC ETC

Obviously, the owners of this forum are enjoying the tribal hatred and e-war going on here. They are cashing on it.
Must we do this to ourselves? Are we not supposed to be learned individuals? U guys should think and read the trash u r spewing out here. A whole lot of them are garbage without any meaning. It's a shame on all of u, and a big shame to the moderators and owner of this forum!!!

Sundaydare1:
On more serious note Igbo people don't have manners at all, they see all tribe as enemy, could you imagine Igbo call Yoruba slave of Hausa, cos will allow peace to reign in our land, we Yoruba respect other tribes and we tolerates, so enough of this insult.

ARE YOU PEOPLE NOT SLAVE TO HOUSA? IF NOT WHY SHOULD YOU ALLOW THEM TO TAKE KWARA STATE AND PUT EMIR THERE INSTEAD OF OBA? NOT ONLY SLAVE BUT COWARDS

Tushborn:
war between yorubas and igbos start d war we join yoruba people and finish those igbo noisemakers am aboki

DOES OGBO MAN ASK FOR GOVERNOR OR DEPUTY GOVERNOR FOR EKITI, OSUN, ONDO, OYO OR OGUN? WHAT DOES THAT SHOW YOU? IT DOES NOT SHOW YOU THAT LAGOS IS NO MAN'S LAND?

amosode:
That your statement" if only d OBA has been more prudent,....."is wrong. That is what we're saying. It's disrespectful. It shows that you're not humble. In that Libation that OBA performed, he said anybody that would not allow peace to reign in Lagos. If indeed the politicians among Igbo did not turn it to politics how would that statement be generalised to all Igbo in Lagos.

I take it from ur response that u believe the OBA should be above criticism. That is so unfortunate my brother. Perhaps if I were his subject I would believe dat too...but fortunately I'm not so I'm at liberty to speak the truth. The oba said wat he said and we all heard and watched him say it. He didn't mince words. He didn't imply either. It was a straight up insult to the sensibility of any decent ibo man or woman. Trying to insinuate that he meant otherwise would be a very uncharitable thing to do. The ibos deserve an unreserved apology, which I believe some yoruba elders have already done on behalf of the oba (who I gather cannot apologize based on traditional custom).
However for the interest of peace among us as nigerians, I'm advocating that our ibo brethren should pls "sheath their swords" and let this one slide. Any form of instability in lagos would terribly affect dis nation negatively. A lot of us look up to lagos as a model nigerian state and if it descends into chaos the impact would be far reaching. But we pray that would not happen by God's grace. Let love reign in our hearts for each other. God bless lagos state! God bless nigeria!!

Election go come and go, we ll soon forget this Ibo talk because PDP was trying to score cheap political points majority of the Ibos I know dont even really care because honestly they have enjoyed Lagos. I blame all these talk on PDP FFK/Fayose Basket mouth mentality, Come to think about It all the Ibo leaders at the Obas palace were clapping after the statement so WTF
In as much as I am not ion support of Oba's speech that does not warrant disrespecting the Royal throne or yoruba tribe
and regardless of the situation
I will still go and eat ASARO @ Mama Ntoro's Shop
Play soccer with Emeka,Edwin,.............
Drink beer with Chinedu,Okafor,Obi,Nonso,Emeka.......
Go to Mass with Stanley,Ejiofor,Nwosu,Obi,Nkechi,Chibuzor..............

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!

ode ni iwo yi. U dont even know ur history. Calabar was once the FCT too so what? Abuja it is now and yet couldnt match lag, u see lagos as always been lagos a mega city that is since pre colonial times. I wonder why yall dont stay home

Fear fear people..strong for mouth.
Nonsense!

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?

Because yorubas are busy partying and marrying.
Hope I answered your question.

This long useless story for the gods was probably written by one of these broke lonely Londoners on NL.

holatin:
and you call yourself a Yoruba, am not sorry to say this you are a disgrace to Yoruba as a whole, no rightful born Yoruba will talk like you.

Because of PDP gave u aphone to browse, you are now tarnishing your tribe just to please them.

no one says lagos is exclusive to the yoruba owners, hausas live in lagos and supply the food they dont make noise. Yorubas live in the east they dont make noise. Why yall that obsessed with our lagos when with ur so call economic advantage u can have ur own lagos or build one like dubai, why not? Lagos welcomes anyone be it lebanese, egyptian or ghanain, its only you ibos who have this oju kokoro of a thing and no apologies

Yall ibos should just stay home, build ur own bridges, get ur own seaports, stop making noise and overwhelming lagos with fake or substandard goods, hell some clowns who call themselves eze on lagos soil, oh boy you are a long way from home.

"Igbo immigrant resident community in the Yoruba kingdom of Lagos in Southwestern Nigeria."

So i'm an immigrant in my own country? What the hell! This is absurd if not silly. I was going to vote for Ambode but i think it's time to put this immigrant nonsense to rest once and for all. I've changed my mind.

It's sad and ironic . A group of immigrant, so-called intellectuals and professionals don't know who an immigrant is.
