[quote author=Christistruth02 post=131963686][/quote]Oga Iwuanyanwu of blessed memory was only being political just to let sleeping dogs lie. You dare not say this rubbish to Hausas in Agege. Dem no born you well to do it. They will clear your doubt there, or you want to tell the Hausaas in Mile 12, you want to die naaa!!!

aswani:
I know who made the statement, the point is that in this thread, certain people from a certain tribe are jumping upandan beating their chests over what the man said.

I don't need to confront the Major General, I can identify nonsense when I hear it. He doesn't have a problem with Ndigbo, he has more of a problem with Ndi Yoruba pretending to be Lagosians indeed.

Anyway, enjoy the news.

If dem born you well go and confront Major General Tajudeen Olanrewaju naaaaa

membranus:
No, Igbos and Hausas can't come and claim our Lagos, the same way we Yorubas cannot come and claim Onitsha and Kano from the two tribes. So you Igbo tribal usurpers, stay your lane. Stop being greedy after other people's lands.

Oga whether you are yoruba or not. If your ancestral home is not in Lagos. You are not from Lagos. Oga stay on your lane and go back to your state. Stop claiming another person's state. I am not from Onitsha and I cannot claim Onitsha even if I am igbo. That is the same with you guys, you are not lagosians whether you are yoruba if your ancestral home is not within the boundaries of Lagos, you are not a lagosian.

Putinofrussia:
Go back to Igboland and stop causing nuisance in Yorubaland,sir.
Nothing concerns your generation with Yoruba matter.

Oga go back to your state and stop being a nuisance. The Lagos group made a comment and you just had to label igbos. You guys are just filled with inferiority complex.

Putinofrussia:
And where did Herbert Macauley come from?
I am a Lagosian from Isale Eko.
I am not saying that an ipob like you should believe me.
I just dont like the way these losers behave.
They are the people that always carry Lagos into the news everytime and some of them are not even real Lagosians.
There are millions of Lagos indigenes that are not in their group.They can continue their foolishness.

Once again you don't have sense anyone who disagrees with you is labelled IPOB. You are not a lagosian that one is clear.

Ogunboylag:
Bring 5 gala take my 1000

you are a hungry kid, filled with envy and hatred, dude go and rest.

membranus:
You are seriously wrong, all the people mentioned were from different regions of Yoruba land:

Madam Efunroye Tinubu - from Abeokuta
Herbert Macaulay - Saro of Liberia descent
Fela - Abeokuta
Tom Jones - Another Saro
Sunny Ade - Ondo town
Etc.

Herbert Macaulay na pure Isale Eko. so these ones are not yardsticks bro. it just shows you that anyone be it igbo, Hausa or Yoruba can come and make Lagos their Home. so you tribal bigots should take a chill pill and relax.

Ogunboylag:
what Can a gala seller like you afford

I understand your pain. it is only wretched people that would call someone that they don't know a gala seller.

aswani:
Nothing to envy or attack Ndigbo from on my side, I just wonder why always Ndigbo when it comes to "dragging" Lagos with Ndi Yoruba considering there is no tribe in Nigeria that you wouldn't see one person in Lagos.

Go back to your state indeed, only one set of people, who themselves are not from Lagos, will boldly say that to others without seeing the irony. Thanks for proving my point.

wait first oooo. Was it igbo that made the press statement or is it not Lagos Indigenes? Why are you bringing Igbos to this. Major General Tajudeen Olanrewaju made the statement, if dem born you well go and confront him naaaa. Leave igbos out of it

Ogunboylag:
If you think the revenge on Yorubas is to take Lagos you will lose another war you bloody idiot
Why are you foolish elders begging Yoruba elites up and down

You will always be defeated
Yoruba is Yoruba anywhere

Oga be careful of the rubbish you utter ooooo, so that police will not pick you

CommonSense1967:
As usual, you guys are always supporting losers. I'm Ijebu by the way from EPE LAGOS. I can guarantee you that this fool who said all this trash cannot win an election in his own family not to talk of anywhere in Lagos. Let him try and let's see the result. He's an inconsequential nobody.
end of story.

I bet you that those so-called natives on Twitter are Igbos masquerading as Yorubas, they have been doing that since 2015. Many many have been exposed. Prince of Lagos is a known Igbo scammer on NL, there are many more. NO true son of Lagos will support this mumu, only some few disgruntled Tinubu haters will post such trash.

Stop daydreaming and go and develop your land, na by force?

so Major General Tajudeen Olanrewaju is igbo now abi!!!! Oga try and be smart naaaa

Ogunboylag:
Nothing like that cause Tinubu a Lagosian rules Yoruba land
Buying land does not make you a Lagosian
Sanwo demolished houses and issues zero refunds
What did you do about it

I can’t wait for the day Yoruba government will revoke all Igbo presence in Yoruba land from top to bottom

I trust ohaneze to send beggars anyways

Oga go and work and stop waiting for the day you will covet someone else's property.

CommonSense1967:
This fool here is one of the ",Yoruba but" omo ale that we have in Lagos.
I also have one of such losers in my family. Their biggest problem 8nnlife is Tinubu. In fact they will rather support a bast@rd like Chinedu than support a Yoruba son simply because theybhate Tinubu.
The problem for them is that they are in a very small minority.
The one in my family has ran for election 5 times and lost each time hence he believes Tinubu is the reason for his pathetic sorry political life

I'm a true son of Lagos andbi can tell you that this fool is delusional and is only speaking for himself. I can guarantee you that he can't win any election even within his own family.

Any Yoruba from any part of Yoruba land is welcome to run for office in Lagos.
Chinedu and his IPOB terrorist cannibal monkey blodas can go and run for office in Abia.
This is Lagos abd we own it from our fore fathers. No one can change that.

Dude you are not from Lagos. Just shut up there.

wirinet:
What of Yorubas from other countries, ie Togo, Benin, Cuba and Brazil, are they also free to come and own Lagos?

Good question.

you are desperate. All the guys you mentioned are indigenes of Lagos. You are not from Lagos, the onus is on you to face your state. At least every easter or ileya go back to your state.

Ogunboylag:
GRV IS OF SARO HERITAGE WITH DISPUTABLE HERITAGE
IBO WILL NOT PRODUCE A LEADER IN YORUBA LAND UNDER ANY GUISE
MY LAGOS NOT YOURS OR PACK YOUR BAG AND GET OUT

Hold on how is his heritage disputable? See this one from Ondo talking about disputable heritage, you are really retarded.

YoungBlackRico:
Because they are nothing but trouble, that's why.

You are acknowledging them because you are filled with inferiority complex. You overestimate your relevance that's why.

aswani:
Still yet to understand why upon all the non-Yoruba tribes living in Lagos, from Hausa to Fulani to Benin to Ibibio to Ijaw tó Efik to Berom, there is just one tribe that we hear a lot of noise from regarding Lagos and Ndi Yoruba, just one that wouldn't let anybody rest on the matter.

Why?

Oga shut your trap there. Go back to your state. Why is it that you guys cannot stop attacking and envying igbos. Now the tables have turned, you cannot accept half of what you dish out against igbos and you are talking,
Leave igbos alone and no one will talk about you.

flokii:
Lagos State is part and parcel of Yorubaland.. the Yoruba heritage of Lagos is not in doubt atal.

The 6 SW States are Lagos, Ogun, Osun, Oyo, Ondo and Ekiti.

Yorubaland covers the above mentioned States including parts of Kwara and Kogi States.

Any so called Lagos indigene claiming Yorubas have no say in Lagos politics is fake, an impostor because all major traditional rulers in Lagos are Yorubas.. The Oba of Lagos and other Lagos kings with staff of office from Lagos State Government are Yorubas. If Lagos were to be a separate colony, all those so called Lagos indigenes would work for and pay tax to Yorubas who are the majority in Lagos. The Yorubas will decide whether or not they breathe so I don't see the point of this madness from tiny fraction (at most 3%) of Lagos recognized Indigenous groups.

Oga go back to your state and stop claiming Lagos.

Putinofrussia:
lol
How can Yorubas be migrants in Yorubaland?
Just like your question:
How can one be strangers in their own land(sic)?
The only migrants in Yorubaland are the Igbos who flee Igboland in night buses to Yorubaland everyday.

If you are yoruba from Ekiti. Lagos is not your land, you hear, go to your father's land and claim the ownership.

flokii:
Gbadebo Rhodes-Vivour is from Delta State.. he is not a Lagosian.

You see those bearing English surnames like Rhodes-Vivour, George, etc. are found in States like Lagos, Delta, Bayelsa up till South East in States like Imo. They are descendants of returned Portugese Slaves to the coastlines of West Africa.

This particular one Rhodes-Vivour is Delta not Lagos, his father is just pretending to be Lagosian while the son too wants to try his luck. There is no history of any Lagosian by that surname Rhodes-Vivour in the archives but they have family compound and their relatives in Delta State fully documemted.

Sanwo-Olu has a very legit right to be Lagos State Governor than a half-Delta, half-Igbo man by name Gbadebo Chinedu Rhodes-Vivour. They should stone him whenever he comes out to play divide and rule, let him go back to Delta his father's home State or Anambra, his mother's State to contest for Governor, not Lagos State.

Bros you are a real liar. Fear God ooooo and stop inviting curses on yourself and your lineage. All because of 30k propaganda salary that you are now saying GRV is from Delta state. Someone whose family land is in Isale Eko.
Bros the thunder that is coming to strike you and your family is warming up. Even Christtruth02 will even be shocked at the lies you are spewing.

flokii:
How do you know he is not a Lagos indigene?.. you an outsider want to decide for someone in his own State. You can see how despicable you are.
This group of saboteurs working for the Igbos should know that Yorubas are one and united. The interests of Lagos indigenes are better protected under Yorubas than under any other ethnic group, not Fulanis nor Igbos.

Yorubas should be at alert to this new tactics of divide and conquer the Igbos have resorted to all in their quest to annex Lagos.

Oga show me one Lagos indigene that can contest for governorship in Oyo or in Osun? Stop all this Yorubas are one and united, if there was no commercial opportunities in Lagos, will you say all this about Lagos?

flokii:
This is the Igbos typical style of divide and rule.. exactly what Nnamdi Azikiwe was doing in the Western region till civil war happened that wiped out over 3 million of his kinsmen. The soft spoken evil man Zik never recovered and died with his evil ambitions.
Funny enough, they always want to divide Yorubas and other clans in South West but will start crying foul when Yorubas back Ikwerres claim that they are not Igbos.

You can see how two-faced and hypocritical those people are.

Oga you are so desperate to spread lies. Oya let me put you to task, show us how Zik caused divide and rule. Or was it Zik that made Akintola betray Awolowo and get him set up by Balewa and Coker commission to go to prison for Treasonable Felony?
Oya come and start talking. You guys are so desperate to lie, because the truth is out the real Lagosians are beginning to speak out because a Lagos indigene dare not go to Oyo to contest or Osun to contest, but these guys are free to come to Lagos and then you have the temerity to say igbos are not welcome. You are mental upstairs.

Ttalk:
Oh you dey enjoy the gist. You left Orlu and started gossipping about what's happening in other region.
Hope you don chop ewedu and gbegiri and changed your name to Bukola. Remember you are Yorubaibo. You will forever remain colonised in SW

Oga shut up and go back to your state.

Christistruth02:


Gbadebo Rhodes, is that you again hiding behind Vanguard Newspaper?

There is no hope for Ipob in Lagos.

How many times do you need to be told that?

E be like say to sleep for DSS detention cell dey hungry you. The real Lagosians have spoken, Oga go back to your state and stop claiming Lagos.

Nomercie:
Baba e werey,you're telling isheri man that he's not from Lagos State, oti ya werey

Oga you are not from Lagos stop claiming Isheri

Ogunboylag:
We know vanguard is ipob
It’s paining you because interior Yorubas will gladly deter you from your covetous agenda in Lagos
Not only that they will effect your ejection across Yoruba land
Na why you Dey fear

You are a clown sha, which covetous agenda. Did any igbo man go to any Lagos village and displace people from their homes. No be una dey do this thing?

Nomercie:
They should come to my father's house to tell me this rubbish,that Yoruba from other state in South West doesn't have stake in Lagos

Ahhh bros na by force? The indigenes want to have a major stake in Lagos and you dey vex, see hypocrisy here oooo.

Ebubu:
Igbos are trying to play divide and conquer

If yorubas divide and conquer you using ikwerre, ebonyi and asaba, hope you won't cry

Sorry in what way are igbos doing divide and rule? are you sure you are okay or you didn't smoke grass? Col Tajudeen Olanrewaju is an igbo name abi.

EvilMerodack:


If you ask Dangote, he really thinks the first few months of PBAT is a success. Why?

He believes so because he(Dangote) has has been able to attain his highest level as a Businessman and an Investor under this regime


A new Govt, a new level for Local investors and the biggest opportunities abound for them now


God bless whoever made it possible for Dangote to do this
God bless Dangote

Dude stop this display of foolishness naaaa

Lithiumite:
What should he have done differently? The VP is from that state and a former gov at that and he has come out to further buttress the harmonious relationship between him and his boss and he has proven his loyalty and also sympathising with the people.

My broda,subsidy removal in pms was never going to be easy on any country don't let anyone deceive you.......no matter how u intend to remove it,there would always be difficulties on the people

Dude the government is still paying subsidy what in God's name are you saying? Landing cost is still higher than the pump price. FG is paying the difference which is subsidy.

Lithiumite:
But when obi goes ....it's born out of genuine altruism innit......you guys are the most pathetic dimwits to ever walk the face of the earth.

Why not zip your mouth.
