Omo , na you done dey bring Biafra come this simple matter o. Because you carry inferiority complex like badge.

Make I ask you , who dash Omo oduduwa Lagos? If na una develop Lagos why una no fit replicate am in the other 5 Yoruba states?

Lagos like LA, New York, London, Johannesburg, MIAMI will always be 100 % cosmopolitan cities .

We wish Portharcourt, Kaduna, Enugu, Calabar will arrive at same status as Lagos and create multilevel economic mini hubs in Nigeria.

People always hiding their failures in tribal bigotry!
Don't mind them

Underneath the mockery is unadulterated jealousy. They mock and condemn everything they wish they had.
Nnamdi Kanu is their "Tinubu".

we are waiting for that day.


That day,we will gladly declare enugu as a no man's land.


Also,Also,the fact that LA,NY,London,Jbourg are cosmopolitan doesn't rule out the fact that itd owned by american,britons!.


Lagos is yoruba's no mans land.Weither you like it or not.

You are free to create one somewhere else too.
You see as you are not wisehuh

Let me now use your own logic to show you


New York = Americans

London= Britons

Lagos = Nigerians (which include Igbos, Hausas, Ijaw etc, because they are all Nigerians)


So where is Yoloba coming into the pic again

At the bolded: Americans and/or Britons are synonymous with Nigerians not Yoruba.

All commercial hub cities, headquarter-cities have a price to pay for its riches: they lose their identity to an extent.

Ask the British about London. We pray not just Enugu, but all potential hub cities in Nigeria grow like lagos.

Nigeria will be better for it.
Tell him!

Yep.

Nigeria belongs to Nigerians, period.

Lagos will remain where it is of course. But it will not be part of any Oduduwa Republic. The other 5 SW states can form their Oduduwa Republic without Lagos.

Have you seen where Northern Ireland is on the map. It's part of the UK, but has actually not much in common with England. Should belong to Republic of Ireland, right. But No. Uk would not let it join Ireland. That is what will happen to Lagos should Nigeria break up. Lagos has been on it's own since 18...something.

The truth hitting you with a Sledgehammer. The nervous laughter will not change the reality. Lagos has little to do with Yoruba people. We just allow you guys to fill up political posts. Those politicians are owned and NOT by Tinubu. You will not understand.

It beats how biafrans would flood Nairaland with comic pictures of Tinubu trying to mock him and the yoruba race when the said Lagos is thriving better than their whole region.

I still don't get it.
Them use tribalism swear for you? Can't we just talk about the present topic without starting a tribal war? cry

Can someone ask this war criminal to explain how the phrase: National Economic Empowerment Strategy, adds up to the acronym ‘NEEDS,’ ?

A classic Afonja English grin

This Iidiot claiming Lagos is manageable today because of the Yoruba race or Tinubu.

Everybody knows non indigenes made Lagos what it is. When the only seaport existing in this so called country is Located in Lagos.Other seaport in the South are in shambles.

Why is it that other Sw States are Useless.
in your mind, how many south western states have you visited that made you conclude they are useless, there is no south west state that is not already developed full of towns with social amenities unlike your east where the capitals are the only town and every other place are villages in the forest, you can only deceive those that have not been to the East,

Useless old man talking trash, what stopped you from generating 10,000 megawatts in your 8 years in power. Bragging about 4,000 megawatts he should have told us how many megawatts he inherited from the military in 1999.

This is a very stoopid and uninformed comment. Do you know the status of Lagos in Nigeria?. Why would any Nigerian be jealous of Lagos?. We are talking of Lagos here, not Ogbomosho or Ibadan. We cannot be jealous of a city owned by all of us. We all, Igbo, Hausa, Edo, Waffi, Calabar etc own Lagos.

Lagos is NOT a Yoruba city or state. You simply have proximity and affinity more than other tribes. The status of Lagos will be clear to you the day any tribal Governor starts any anti Nigerian move there. How many Yoruba's own property at Banana Island?.
So u ve gone to take data in banana island and found out that yorubas dont own properties there (na only Igbo get 99% of the properties there, cos thats all u claim) U claim to be the richest but u are no where among the top five richest in nigeria..the fact that u all flood into lagos everyday does not make u majority in lagos...
