It have denied them . What about the Hausa , the igbo , the I jaw, the Efik, Tiv, Idoma, Fulani child etc will be denied access to their university of choice in lagos state because of their tribe and inability to speak Or write Yoruba language
Why do you feel you must speak for other tribes. How many of them have you seen castigate the bill if not only you greedy shameless iboes?
You are just like a typical iboe man who must align with his enemy to fight another enemy of his. You flat heads don't have any fuvcking right to speak on behalf of other tribes. Just say the bill caused consternation among your dirty iboe folk. If you don't like the bill, then you leave the state because it is here to stay. I hope other Yoruba states implement it also.

But you didn't protest when it started from your enclave? Oya start protesting. Who protest epp in Nigeria?

This is just the beginning of the legal steps to rip you off our land. Wait for more.


You want Biafra and we will help you achieve it by making you look Eastward.

We are one Nigerian's . The law also affects over 250 Ethnic groups in Nigeria potentially over 140 million Nigerians . I won't be drag into the argument of Biafra we are Nigeria Citizens as I speak

Lagos is a federal state,unlike imo that is regional.There won't be much qualms enacting such law in ondo,ogun and other yoruba regional state.

I love the move,but it shouldn't be made compulsory to non yorubas,unless other two major languages are included,to give options to students of non yoruba origin.

That is why Nigeria Federal Government in her wisdom choose English as the official lingua Franca in Nigeria because of the Cosmopolitan Nature of Nigeria and the versatility of her people .
Such Yoruba Language Bill should be restricted to local gathering and events not interfering in the Educational system of Nigeria to the extend of violating The Constitution and causing disability to other Nigerians

That's why Nigeria is a shithole country... useless third world enclave. In this day and age when serious nations are expanding the frontiers of innovation and modernisation, some parochial fools are forcing the preservation of one useless language that is of no economic significance whatsoever down the throats of other ethnic nationalities. How would the useless language help increase the quality of education and the quality of our graduates? How would it fast track our stalled march towards development? Of what REAL significance is it to our country in the globalised world of today?

Primitive people who are cutting their nose to spite their own faces. Tweh.

Lagos is no longer a federal capital. It's now like every other state so get that to your flat skull. Look for Abuja if you are looking for a federal state. Even as Abuja is still the FCT, only northerners are given the minister for FCT. So look for another excuse.

On one hand you want Biafra, on another hand you want to practice one Nigeria by force. Yorubas has always maintained their stand on true federalism. We want to create our laws and govern ourselves the way we want in a loose federation. It is you pigs that are confused.

It is the federal commercial capital,that cannot change until nigria breaks.And if it does break up amicably,equitable settlements have to made to the non yorubas that have contributed immensely in making it tick.If it does break up like syria,everything will go to pieces.

No. We are not one Nigerian. You are biafrans. We have never hidden our reservation for a Unitarian Nigerian.

We want true federalism. We want to govern ourselves, create our own laws in a loose federation. It is your forebears that created this unitary system and we will never relent until we make it loose.

What you want or does not want is of no legal concern to me at this point in time . We are looking at the Constitution and the legality of the Yoruba Language Bill and it's implication on the Education system .

Until the Constitution empower the state to act in a way that can deprive Nigerians from other tribe the right to equal opportunity this law remain a Nullity

Yoruba ethnic group just shot themselves point blank with the law..

Don't understand why the complaint.. this a welcome development.

In the rush to grab Lagos in other to extend the development and open up other Southwest states..

The fired the first formal shot on tribalism, and other negative vices that will come to hunt them forever... Politically and otherwise.

Dicision hastily taken in other to spite igbo's.. just like the did to Jonathan.

But will enforcement of all this rules make Lagos Yoruba town? No.

Money create cities states and development not language or tribe ..

If it does .. Hitler's would have been alive and old.

The red Indies for be the only presidents in USA.

The great to Oyo empire for still the rock Africa by now..

Time has a funny way it position things...

So for those masturbating on Lagos law...

It gurrantee nothing..
When the time comes ... It matters less..

We investors care less ... But care much about our investment.
Money change government..not language
[/s]Absolute balderdash. Na only igbo dey for lagos. You take yourself important, we take you as nonentity. Deal with it. The law has been made, if you no like it, take the next buss back to your village. Simple as abc.

That is why I told the guy that he is wasting his time. They must learn Yoruba by force if they want to live in our land. If Nigeria was practising regionalism, the languge would have been the official language of the west. What I don't get is why they refuse to focus on iboeland. The average iboe guy knows the name of Yoruba governors than that of his region. Even Yoruba people know the names of SE leaders. This is the same tribe that have been vociferous towards a seperate country, but now it seems they are ill- prepared. Like they say, they, only empty barrels make the loudest noise.
Shameful I must say.

Who is denying you anything? Yoruba language is a Nigerian language, if you can learn English I don't think Yoruba should be a problem for you.
