I live in a faraway Osun State and I can tell you how dangerous these OPC guys are .
I swear , these Igbo people don’t know anything. Dem just dy chestbeat up and down . If violence struck pere! Hundreds of thousands of igbos in Yorubaland go die o .
I witnessed the Yoruba/Hausa clash that happened in Sabo area, Ile Ife in 2017 .
Na small thing cause fight between two people o and the Hausas tried to defend their own and fight on his behalf . The Yoruba man was injured . And he went to call his people .
It was only the locals and some NURTW guys that came out to face the Hausas that day . Many were killed , properties burnt . I ran for my life ,
See dead bodies everywhere . I will never forget that day .
Fear yoruba man o .
I just dy look this mariangles woman and other igbos making mouth all over Nairaland .
These people don’t know jackshit

I tell you my brother; they forgot that during those times OPC was even supporting PDP in Lagos and Tinubu and his loyalists in government were always fast to work with the security agencies to arrest their leaders and as such violence stopped, but now that OPC are no longer in politics as before APC May look the other side for some days so as to teach some chest beaters a good lesson.

They should ask about OPC/palace guards clash in Owo Ondo state, were a knife was stabing people on it own and nobody was seen fighting with the knife!

Invincible hand!!! It killed several people that were using charms/amulet/juju! Those that can vanish, disappeard, some took off on foot but those not fortunate died!

May GOD continue to protect we and our household.

U can't know is on his mind, so u can't he won't restructure..
Giving him a chance and voting him out when he failed.. was the reasonable thing to do. [/quote
It's a lie ,even APC has restructuring on its manifesto,they have not done it,they said we should restructure our head,how much more atiku,who spent many years in govt .it's 419 please!

I pray yorubas and Ibos fight on Lagos. Una noise don't too much.
But know that the nunber of Ibos dead bodies would be uncountable.

March 9th is not far

You know why I love Yoruba people? when the fight start, half of them will be in seme border, the other half will be inside olumo rock. Igbo people don't do roforofo, when it is time to really fight, it will be war, not riot.

Na Ibo fit fight?
Let march 9th come na so we will know who is the coward between Yorubas and Ibos

Olas24u, I think it is enough.
No need to talk to much.
We have warned them enough.

U ALL ARE FOOLSS. SOME IDIOT JUST CREATE A TRIBALISTIC THREAD AND EVERYTIME U ALL DONT EVEN WASTE TIME TO JUMP AT IT. THESE TRIBAL E-WARS WILL NOT LEAD US ANYWHERE
I GUESS NON OF YOU HAVE WITNESSED ANY WARS COS IF U LIVED TO TELL THE STORY, U WILL ALWAYS SEEK FOR PEACE.

LALASTICLALA/MODS, I WILL PLEAD WITH YOU TO STOP SENDING POTENTIAL TRIBALE-WAR AND THREADS PROMOTING TRIBAL HATRED, TO FRONT PAGE. BETTERSTILL, CLOSE THEM DOWN. THATS THE ONLY WAY U CAN CONTRIBUTE TO PEACE IN THE COUNTRY ESPECIALLY AT THIS TIME.

As an analogy. What the Yoruba are really doing to Lagosians is akin to Igbo's flooding say Rivers/Portharcourt and then be deciding for the natives who will be their governors. Real Lagosians no longer have a say in their state, while outsiders are lording it over them by forming Yoruba common wealth. What say does a Lagos indegene have in Ogun, Osun, Oyo etc? Even in their own state, they have no say. JK is an indegene Lagosian. Sanwo/Ambode/Fashola/Tinubu are not even from Lagos State. you think you are using their head while pointing towards an I.aginary enemy for them right? It is Lagos indegenes that will shock you. Already fights and fights have been going on in my area in Orile for the past three days now and the governorship elections is yet to take place. O to geh in Lagos is a goal. Lagos for Lagosians. Ndi ara.

He himself was a product of an unrestructured country,he made his money in the west.assuming it was regional system,the money he made would have been made by a Yoruba man from the west.can he become a billionaire in adamawa within few years.He knows what you don't know ,so he will never do any restructuring.He was in government and didn't do it,obj didn't ,GEJ did not,na atiku go do am.

This nonaira again. The Onitsha man wey dey claim asaba. Lol.

We all know the tribe that was seen making 1 million man march in solidarity with Abacha while the Yyoruba fought tooth and nail.

. This slowpoke thinks calling me Onitsha is an insult. . Ediot!! Illiterate Onitsha are Igbos and Onitsha is equally Anioma. Whether or not your illiterate ass think I’m from there or not is nothing. Illiterate. And of course una fought Abacha with your loud mouth. Ndi ara

Look at this eediot. Ambode wey be an epe man no be lagosian?

We all know Ibos are akin to goats who don't love hearing words but flogging. They were flogged in Akure, Bayelsa etc. Yet they haven't learnt their lesson.

Ok

Let the war begin. I want this to be so bloody that Afonjas will either call for their odoluduwa Republic or give Igbos their due respect in Lagos State. I for one won't sit back and watch, I'd be fully involved and committed in the war front. The 'zoo' is finally coming to a wrap.

All I want is for my Igbo brothers to be united in this and face our common enemy together. Let Yorubas bring it on, Awolowo will do a lot of work of welcoming his siblings in hell .

Lagos is own by Benin ppl and Igbo develop it,what concerns Yoruba there.

LAGOS MY STATE.
WHO OWNS LAGOS? HISTORY 101:POINT OF INFORMATION

"By 1872 Lagos was a cosmopolitan trading center with a population of over 60,000 people. Colonial Lagos developed into a busy, cosmopolitan port, with an architecture that blended Victorian and Brazilian styles.The Brazilian element was imparted by skilled builders and masons who had returned from Brazil The black elite was composed of English-speaking "Saros" from Sierra Leone and other emancipated slaves who had been repatriated from Brazil and Cuba.
By 1872 the population of the colony was over 60,000, of whom less than 100 were of European origin.

In 1876 imports were valued at £476,813 and exports at £619,260. Telephone links with Britain were established by 1886, and electric street lighting in 1898.
In August 1896, Charles Joseph George and G.W. Neville,both merchants and both unofficial members of the Legislative Council, presented a petition urging construction of the railway terminus on Lagos Island rather than at Ido, and also asking for the railway to be extended to Abeokuta. Lagos history is rich in Yoruba tradition,trade and commerce, infrastructural development and cosmopolitanism." -EXTRACTED

With the little facts above, I would like to educate some illiterates making stupid assumption from blind sentiments that they developed Lagos.

Lagosians had telephone presence in 1886, Itu and Calabar got connected to Telephone in 1923, while between 1946 and 1952, a three-channel line carrier system was commissioned between Lagos and Ibadan and was later extended to Osogbo, Kaduna, Kano, Benin, and Enugu.

Communication technology is a major signifier of civilizations and if Lagosians were already making telephone calls more than 70 years before Igbo citizens, where then did you get the warped idea that you came to develop Lagos?

By 1856 Cable and Wireless Company of the UK had commissioned a submarine cable link between Lagos and London and in 1851 a post office was established in Lagos; all these before the emergence of Nigeria as an amalgamated country. If I may ask again, where did the stupid idea that Igbo developed Lagos come from? Or that Lagos was developed with Nigeria's money when Lagos was not even part of Nigeria until 1914.

I always feel embarrassed anytime I read and hear even so-called educated people from the East making these stupid assertions.

The first Yoruba lawyer Christopher Alexander Sapara Williams was called to the English Bar in 1879 whilst the first Igbo lawyer, Sir Louis Mbanefo, was called to the English bar in 1937.

Again the first Yoruba medical practitioner, Dr. Nathaniel King, graduated in 1875 from the University of Edinburgh whilst the first Igbo medical practitioner, Dr. Akannu Ibiam, graduated from another Scottish University in 1935. Again I ask, where did the ignorant hypothesis of the backward Yoruba race who needed development by the superior Igbo race come from?

For the sake of our generation and posterity, we need to teach factual history and not just cook up some cock and bull ego-centric concoctions as facts. The attitude of recycling long tales steeped in empty arrogance should be discarded before you miseducate your kids with fictions.

Awolowo will continue to be the Yoruba hero not because of blind followership but because he gave his people the system of free education, free healthcare and he introduced Television to the Yoruba; making Yorubaland the first region to have a TV station in Africa, all done with revenues from Cocoa. It is crass ignorance and naked buffonery to claim Lagos was built with Nigeria's money. In addition, where did the foolish idea that the Igbo brought civilization to Lagos and Yoruba-land come from?

The aim of this post is not to deride any tribe but to correct the dangerous misinformation trending among some Igbo youths and common in their narratives that Lagos is a no-man's land and that their fathers built and developed Lagos.

Ancestors of Igbo people came to Yoruba-land like all other settlers and we appreciate their contributions. But the stupid claim that Igbo built and developed Lagos is a gross display of stupidity because Lagos was already developed before Igbo ancestors came here from their villages and towns.

The first storey building in Nigeria was built in Marina, Badagry in 1845, long before some of hinterland people gave up the idea of conical mud houses with thatched roofs which some boastfully called 'ancient mansions.' How can you now claim your grand-sires developed Lagos? Please if you are one of those spreading the fiction, I expect you to desist from self-delusion and collective amnesia forthwith.

The first Igbo alphabet-character set and Igbo primer (Isoama-Ibo) was published by Bishop Samuel Ajayi Crowther (a Yoruba man from Osogun) in 1857. How can you now claim superiority over the Yoruba race and even carelessly affirm that your forebears should be thanked for bringing enlightenment to Yoruba Land?

While I do not see all these achievements as a sign of Yoruba superiority over the Igbo or any other tribe, for I do not believe in racial superiority; I will not also tolerate any attempt by bigots who stoke ethnic hatred through incitement and arrogant claims of superiority over others.

Itesiwaju Eko!

You people are just terrible !we should give respect you deserve in Lagos,.

You that is lover of all cum political prostitites of the Fulani, which igbo candidate will your selfish kind support for president as igbos support others?

Again keep your sophisticated moronic literacy support that has turned the country into a shit hole over time for your tribal love of crumbs. You can spin and skew history like a typical son of fallen demon does all you want but Osinbanjo being chased away like a dog and Tinubu made a, what did Buhari call him again, regional chieftain after all their igbo hating and asslicking only shows the reality.

Again how did your kind of immoral political prostitution end for your fellow hirtheto asslicking, igbo bashing MB with your "wise" primitive selfish bent? Now they hear Biafra and stfu even yearn to be free from their slave masters after they've taught them who the real radicals are. Continue your ostrich step-on-others-to-climb (against GEJ's south south and igbos) politics your turn is coming faster than you think because fulani may be barbaric but are wise to your antics.

Good thing many in the SW discovered and repented from my stomach anti-southern politics and went for likely competence hence the huge vote Atiku got there despite the rigging.

From your list and in contemporary times, Igbos have shown they support any candidate, irrespective of tribe, that displays good will for and to all, be him, from SS (GEJ), SW ( OBJ ) even fulani (Atiku) yet you accuse them of being haters even when their is a list of individual from other tribes igbos will likely still be inclined to support in the future while you cant mention any one igbo politician your primitive orientation can allow you support just because he is igbo. If the present government displays such imperative tendency for development of showing goodwill to all, igbos will still support it despite whatevebecause goodwill matters to igbos not just ethnicity.

Now mention the igbo politician which your selfish tribal south sabotaging bent will allow you support? If your political literacy starts and ends at supporting any based on a promise of amala while others are oppressed keep such primitive orientation to yourself. It didnt serve MB well in the end it wont for you too.

Look at this one. You have forgotten the likes of Zik, the beautiful bride. Yeye dey smell.

5thElement:
Do you feel offended because I called some people chest beaters or because I said they are facing certain extinction?

I am not here to make anybody feel good about themselves dear.

I call it as I see it.

You may think my words foolish, but the wise ones know the depth of that which I speak.

Nigerian Civil War - 3 million Igbo died.

What makes you think the next pogrom will produce a less figure?

I don't know how old you are ma'am, but if you are old enough, then you'll remember what happened in 1993 during the annulment of the freest and fairest election ever conducted in Nigeria till date. Immediately riots started in various parts of Yoruba land, the Easterners packed themselves in trucks along with their belongings and fled back to the east. I am a living witness to that.

I understand that there are a lot of millenial babies carrying big phones bought for them by their parents on Nairaland who don't know crap about anything, screaming Afonja up a and down this forum.

When push comes to shove and _shit hits the ceiling, I can't hide anybody in the basement or ceiling of my house.

The clarion call I made to the founder of this forum is to your benefit. I know what the OPC can do and that makes me shudder.

The fools here screaming that the Yorubas can't do anything are probably living in the east. They want a pogrom to start so that all easterners will relocate to the east where they will be forced to start over again.

So, see my comment as foolish. It is your prerogative, but when the gbege lands, I hope you'll remember that 5thElement did try to prevent this in his own little way.

Screenshots below shows Igbos who remember the ordeal I just narrated for you. Enjoy.

You put much words without reasoning sir
How do you think a fragment
or remnants of a tribe living
far away from home
wouldn't be vanquished
in an all battle @another's land?
however don't you think they are Yoruba's
too living over here in the south
as well as the east?
Pls try to think with your head before
making a comment
all we envisage for is equality.
and not rash behaviors
Which taints our democracy
and labours of our past heroes.
Every man is free to exercise his/her
Franchise,and vote for whom he/she wants to.
Without fear or frivolity
like we've seen from the Yoruba's
From this past elections.
no man has monopoly or autonomy to decide how another lives their live.
yet telling how and who to vote for.
talk less of laying curses
and asking the lagoon to swallow
another tribe.
Sir let's all try to work together
and avoid any impending dangers of war
as it would be a lose,lose situation
for the both tribes.
