All the Aziz in Nigeria are Arabians, quit weed
Don't expound on that which you have no knowledge of. Nigerians are not Arabs and their use of names is not held as a standard. They make the same error of thinking that Arabic = muslim. To Arabs, Aziz can be muslim or christian; like Kunle or Ike for example to Yorubas/Igbos. If it is preceded by Abdul as in Abdulazeez, then it is muslim, because that is the full muslim name, just that it is shortened by non Arabs. A muslim may want to verify this.

This shows to you all how Muslims operate. The worst is yoruba muslims who till date know nothing about Mohammed..

Amotekun should be practiced only in yoruba states and villages
Lagos is not really a yoruba state,
We the binis are the first and original owners of lagos as documented
so binis are these cowards to have been chased out of Lagos without a single trace of relevance or recognition?

Tariq is Arab

Aziz is Arab

Islam is from Arab

But Tariq Aziz is a Christian and a Catholic.

This is effect of apc.

Illiteracy doesn't totally vanish with education it seems. Arabs are an ethnic group with a distinct language. All Arab christians have arabic names. Or did you think that Arab christians have Roman names because christianity is from Rome?

Your own mumu is the effect of which party?

Are you still confused about who the organisers of the protest are ?? . See their names below from a reliable source.
But the question is how much each did the lazy youths sold their birthright for?
Apart from the spokeman, the rest might not even be paid. They were possibly deceived that it's a religious course to resist the creation of the security outfit.

Being stupid is appalling. You deviated from the issue and started oozing out meaningless stuff. Nothing concerns me with amotekun.

One agbero is telling us because there's Joshua in the group it's not Muslim sponsored. I pointed out to him a Muslim name who was a devout Christian. Maybe you didn't even read and jumped into conclusion.

I can mention a Christian name who is a Muslim too.
Pls,do and shame the devil. grin

Re: Anti-Amotekun Protest Rocks Lagos by HeeBraHim2(m): 10:25pm On Mar 12, 2020
Well, I think Yoruba Muslim did a right over the amotekun and the fucking Christians has nothing to do with it.

At least we are the majority and law said majority carry the vote.
We will spare amotekun if you can change the name and let it be for everybody in yorubaland.

Again you won't direct the amotekun to attack our fellow Muslim in the north, Either they are doing bad or good we are neighbor and I don't think ignoring them could solve any problem.

IGBO too are making us feel uncomfortable buh you ig ore it because you share religion believe with them.

Islam is the majority in Nigeria and we has veto power over everything in this country

Sponsored protest. In spite of it, Amotekun has come to stay. Niger Delta States are coming up with their regional security outfit also. If you don't like it, go and hug transformer.

In addition to this, yorubas's high level of tolerance and understanding have prevented major case of clashes or wars, hence, hygenic peace was held.
Not until recent past, that imminent disasters were envisaged through the approaching emmergence of insurgency; terrorism, millitancy and rebel.
The need for the foresighted race to provision against such, causing undue disaster. And we have set the pace again for the self acclaimed developer...they should sink that.
In addition tell them to read more about the established of Frsc and Civil defense and see diff BTW them and the great Yorubas

''Speaking to journalists during the protest, spokesperson for the group, Chief Oloketuyi Joshua said the South West Governors are ignorant by throwing their weight and resources behind a security outfit whose real motive they were not aware of''

Joshua Oloketuyis is a Muslim? Religious bigotry is a disease.

Let me educate you Incase not to make this stupid comment next time

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!

A bini man made a comment, but your comment mentioned noting about what the bini man said.
We the Igbos here are happy for Amotekun because somehow it will help the other regions in the south, at least am very happy that security from the threats posed by these section of disgruntled Fulani criminals cos I don't believe it's all Fulani that indulge in those heinous and bastardy acts have paved a United front for the south, but you've succeeded in spilling your bile of bigotry and racism, subtly committed an offence you hypocritically claimed wasn't your intent.
I don't know what to tell you but the Igbos especially people like me ain't your problem, you know your problem and you should know how to tackle it like others like I did.

Chief Oloketuyi Joshua that is the name of the chief convener of the protest..its a christian name please let us stop attaching religion to everything in naija.
Like seriously, I don't believe you don't know the kind of politics that can be played in Nigeria, so did you ask the Joshua to know if it was his real name, or is this the first time names answered by other religions are assigned to manipulate a particular situation?
So you believed the Kaduna living faith church bomber is a Christian too?
Of course, you can't feign ignorance of all I've said.
