Simplythebest: But my problem is that i never see or hear IPOB said Anambra election won't hold. I thought they said is only 2023 if am not wrong. So whats is happening in Anambra state. Who are the people killing innocent people and causing problems every were. Were is the DSS in terms of intelligence gathering?
Government never rushes, they have all the time on their hands, Mazi was on the run for over 2 years, who told The DSS that he will be visiting Nairobi, who told the Nigerian Directorate of State Security that their big Aja was in the bowl? Who put Mazi to sleep & he work up in Abuja after 2 days of snoozing?

DoggoneDogg: Futa jalon jihadists wan rig election & appoint another 5th place Supreme Court Governor. Na why dem dey unleash all their abokina gendarmerie to dey kill innocent people in SE to justify shits like dis.
Soludo don put fear for their heart.
Wailer, do you have a voters card? Ignorant conspiracy theorist.
babaolofin: You are very funny and suffering from mental disorders. There is no need answering you or teaching you foundational principle surrounding Eko history. So, it was the British that helped Oba Dosunmu to defeat Oba Kosoko and seize the control of Lagos from Oba of Benin ?
You don't know anything. You can continue to wallow in historical manipulation and illusions. You are an Aboki and a foolish one for that matter.
As I have often said in different fora, it is the present ELEKO (Oba Akiolu) that caused all this perversion. Under the previous ELEKOs (Adele,Oyekan, etc) nobody can have the courage to say all this nonsense. An Aboki, believes that because part of Lagos Island was a British Colony, then it has become British property that was handed over to the Mallam at Independence. Can a Mallam tell the Zulu people that Pretoria is a British property ?
All Obas of Lagos trace their lineage to Ashipa, a war captain of the Oba of Benin. Ashipa was rewarded with title of Oloriogun (or War leader) and received the Oba of Benin's sanction to govern Lagos.
Some Benin accounts of history have the Ashipa as son or grandson of the Oba of Benin. Other accounts note that Ashipa is a Yoruba corruption of the Benin name Aisika-hienbore (translated "we shall not desert this place".
Ashipa received a sword and royal drum as symbols of his authority from the Oba of Benin on his mission to Lagos. Additionally, the Oba of Benin deployed a group of Benin officers charged with preserving Benin's interests in Lagos. These officers, led by Eletu Odibo, were the initial members of the Akarigbere class of Lagos White Cap Chiefs.
Prior to the arrival of the British, the Oba of Benin had "the undisputed right to crown or confirm the individual whom the people of Lagos elect[ed] to be their King".
The defeat of Oba Kosoko by British forces on December 28, 1851, in what is now known as the Bombardment of Lagos or Reduction of Lagos, or locally as Ogun Ahoyaya or Ogun Agidingbi (after boiling cannons), put an end to Lagos' s former allegiance to the Oba of Benin.
Kosoko was therefore the last Oba of Lagos to remit annual tributes from the people of Lagos to the Oba of Benin. Oba Akitoye, who was re-installed to the throne by the British, "seized the opportunity of his restoration under British protection to repudiate his former allegiance" to Benin and rebuffed subsequent tribute requests from the Oba of Benin.
Previous rulers of Lagos have used the titles of Ologun (derived from Oloriogun), Eleko and, most recently, Oba of Lagos

AkalaJ: As you dey try reach you still fail abysmally to hide your tears over this news. It's ok, we understand. Don't worry, we know the present ipob-induced happenings in iboland are enough to make you ibo people jealous and envious of this yet another positive development in the SW corridor while your own ibo states struggle to surpass/outdo each other in bloodletting activities. But be rest assured that you will always be welcome to stay and seek refuge in our peace-loving region, as long as you eschew every IPOBic/terroristic tendency. I hope you can now stop crying.
Go & acquire your own property & collect rent money, stop waiting for free beer & fish pepper soup from your friends.
Covidodo: See this covetous loser...Anybody can claim Lagos kee you there !!
Everyone must bear their papa's name at the end of the day.
Nah your papa build Kano , Rivers , Enugu , or Abuja airports??
The real tragedy of the poor is the poverty of their aspirations, please go & work to acquire property with your C of O from the Governor of The State anywhere in Nigeria, stop claiming other people’s property Mr OPP.
Dangote is building the biggest refinery in Africa @ ibeju Lekki, he has paid for the land, the people have collected his money, it doesn’t belong to them anymore, when his 99 years lease expires, it goes to the State Government that is the law of Nigeria, not what you fanthom in your myopic tribalistic mind.
Newton85: Shut up, mentally unstable, jealous IPOB werey! When it's time to mock Yorubas that our region isn't great or how dirty it is, you Eboe cretins will point to Makoko and all the dirty slums in Lagos, but when great things like Eko Atlantic are in the news, you jealous, eternally-embittered mofos from that erosion-ravaged hellhole that is barren and of no economic importance (apologies, Asari Dokubo), will crawl out to delude yourself that Lagos is not part of Yorubaland. Lagos is Yorubaland land when it's time to showcase the bad things or bad parts of Lagos, but it suddenly stops being Yorubaland when it's times to showcase the good things and good parts of Lagos? Well, we're glad that you and your kind will forever be heartbroken and sad that Lagos is Yorubaland. Too bad you can't ship it to your barren land of Arochukwu or Awka. Bloody lunatic!
It is our own? Go & join them & be sharing money in Alausa even Joe Ibokwe is seeing something, not to be arguing here claiming our property, show us your own you paid with your own money? will The Tejuoshos, MC Oloumo & co allow you see any chop in Eko? I believe You get your satisfaction by yapping on the Internet?
You mean because of this, Lagos is not part of the SW or in the even of any breakup, Ikoyi, VI, Eko Atlantic and your Dodan Barracks and Bonny Camp won't be part of the SW?
Are you a comedian?
No one is even dividing anything in the first place, let’s get that straight, go to your own Local Government and develop it, Akure Airport built by Federal Government, Ibadan Airport built by Federal Government, MMA1 & 2 built by Federal Government, Which state in western Nigeria has built their own Airport? None, Odua Group cannot even export cocoa for foreign exchange? My guy anyone can claim Lagos State, come pay your taxes, do business & live, Even Jagaban is not from Lagos State.
Coldshisha: All the mentioned western states are far more developed than all Ibo states and the records are there for all
Negro I represent Victoria Island, Eti Osa Local Government 100%, Adetokumbu Ademola Street, Ajose Adeogun roundabout Eko Hotel, blazing indo from Kuramo lodge, down to Bar Beach viewing Eko Atlantic, beach front south beach Miami style, straight down Ahmadu Bello Way, old Oniru palace, near bar beach police station, drive North to Federal Palace Hotel, Adeola Odeku, Saka Tinubu, Sanusi Fafunwa, Ozumba Mbadiwe name it, is the hood.
NGpatriot: Unfortunately for you and regardless of whatever old and archaic colonial narratives you are peddling, Lagos state is still part of SW Nigeria and if Nigeria should break up today, Lagos shall remain a component of the SW.
Lagos today is a fee paying member of the SW governors forum and Oodua Group in the SW so all the historical fallacies you narrated means nothing, it has zero relevance to brick and mortar realities on the ground.
Lagos as the federal capital was limited to Lagos island, Lagos mainland starting from Iddo to Apapa, Ikeja, Ikorodu was SW, Nigeria so when you say Lagos state, make sure you know what you are talking about.
Do you live in Lagos State? Where is Dodan Barracks & Bonny Camp? The British & Federal Government created Ikoyi & Victoria Island, the most expensive part of Lagos State till date.
You just pull this out of your ass... British Lagos Colony or Lagos city, Eko Ile that occupy British pays land use charges to Oba of Eko and Lagos land owning family, they even sue them to British court for failures to pay early
That said, Lagos City is just Marina, Modern VI , Ikoyi, ... Lagos State however is full property of western Region Nigeria and this includes Eko Atlantic city built on dedge Bar beach, places like Ikeja, Badagry and other Lagos State towns
Go & develop Osogbo, Ekiti, ordinary Cocoa you can’t industrialize, it is what Nigeria has invested in they want to claim, isn’t Bola Ahmed Tinubu from Osun State, is he an Awori, has any Awori ever ruled your so called Lagos State?
Keep dreaming, I know the only reason some ignorant people shout Oduduwa is because they think Lagos Colony will form part of their imaginary Republic? Igboho who made noise in the West of Nigeria, after he said he was coming to Lagos State, he has never been seen again in Public, same fate awaits any Mumu that comes shouting Lagos State & Oduduwa. Eko Oni Baje.
Mydazz: Summary of this message is that USA is making mad money from this country,..... If not why invest so much?
One of the countries that won't support the division of Nigeria because on unforeseeable realities
Yet some mumus said Nigeria will not exist by then, yet the United State Embassy is the first country that we know of to secure to secure its residency & offices in the future which is Eko Atlantic.
These are same mumus that exclaimed & believed that President Buhari was dead, & that Jubril of Sudan was the power @ The Rock? Those same mumus that fail to plan for their lives, are the same ones that will blame other people in future for their own self inflicted failures, they know themselves.
BKayy: Even USA is preparing for Nigeria break up. That Consulate is for US in Oduduwa Republic
Only ignorant tribalistic mumus think Lagos State has anything to do with Oduduwa they should be talking of developing Ibadan capital of Western Nigeria, Lagos State belongs to The Federal Government of Nigeria, We the Citizens of Nigeria, Oba Dosunmu ceded Lagos Colony to the British in 1861 after they helped him defeat Oba Kosoko & seize control of Eko from the Oba of Benin.
Lord Frederick Lugard joined Lagos Protectorate to southern Nigeria in 1906, Great Britain on their exit in turn handed it over to The Federal Government of Nigeria In 1960, the history is there for you to study, in your so called regional Omo Oduduwa politics of Action Group & Awolowo was there @ anytime they controlled Lagos State? Go & develop Osogbo if you are thinking of Oduduwa, Lagos State does not play tribalism.
Ikpunwanyianamb: It is confirmed that IPOB is the militant wing of PDP ,reason they wanted to turn imo upside down but thanks to Uzodinma who slaughtered the ipob terrorists like rams
Slowly we are seeing the peeps causing problems in the South East, legal advocate for unknown Gunmen?
odysey: Interestingly IPOB suspension sit at home so IPOB obviously isn't enforcing something they stopped So tagging them terrorists has failed woefully off course we know who are the sponsors of the unknown gun men their Leaders will be exposed even more
tundess: In summary, The Panama Papers, The Paradise Papers and the last installment in the trilogy, The Pandora Papers, tell us that rich people don't like to pay tax, worldwide. Some of those rich people are politicians, their relatives or their chums. Mind blowing stuff. Also, that tax havens exist and there are lawyers, accountants and other professional "trades" that the rich employ to hide their monies in these tax havens. Wow.
It's taken an International Consortium of Investigative Journalists ~5 years to tell us this earth shattering news. The Papers don't even show any crime took place, beyond undisclosed assets being in violation of asset declaration laws for political office holders. I'd have thought by now any real journalist would be asking who released these files and what do they hope to gain ? Of course Putin is alleged to be stupendously wealthy, without a shred of evidence. Of the African polticians mentioned, they are just a collection of lizard tails compared to the likes of Tony Blair ; You know, the chap that fabricated evidence that led to the invasion of another country, that escalated Islamic terror, that has cost the world $ trillions and many hundreds of thousands if not a million lives? If these disclosures are what the ICIJ calls "corruption", then they are being far too kind. We all know corruption globally runs far deeper and bloodier than this. The fact that Americans are not named is only indicative of the fact that America has it's own legal tax havens, eg Delaware, home state of Sleepy Joe.
You are correct, No case submission, only Peasants will wail over this rubbish, it is now a crime to stash money offshore?
Judenzuruike: See how swift and short it took them to track and arrest the so called "suspects" but not a single person has been apprehended in connection to BH.
Wailers damned if you do, damned if you don’t? It was only a matter of time before they would be nabbed, all ipobs that come out to brag, are all eventually apprehended or killed, from Kanu to Ikonso, just time.
paramakina202: Unfortunately only Southeast will be sitting at home as no other region will join that nonsense. IPOB is not talking about few hours or just a day but one month that is madness.
Deliberating on joining a group proscribed by the The Federal Government? They should have been arrested immediately for making such a statement, this useless democrazy has made Government very weak.
Political Parties that are not established on any ideology, neither a little left nor right, what is the difference between their so called card carrying members? Obanikoro was Defense Minister under Jonathan, today he is an APC so called Chieftain, his s on is in the House of Representatives today repping Lagos State.
