PoliticsRe: ICC Investigates Oba Of Lagos For Anti-igbo Remarks by RickyTan: 7:42pm On Aug 23, 2015

so we are on the same page then. lagos is not no mans land wink
Brother - did i say Lagos was "no man's land?" I said Lagos - the mega city belongs to every Nigerian. We know the history of Lagos. It is historical Yoruba land but it blossomed into a mega city because of Nigerian resources and because it was designated Federal capital. Same thing happened to Abuja.

Does it mean that lagos was enmity or without king before white men name it capital. Or why do you say it is for everybody.
That was the reason Awolowo strategically end civil war. It is work of brain and not musscle .
Hello Brother - the debate is not whether Lagos had kings or not. We know the answer. Lagos is historical Yoruba land and Yorubas had kings way back when. The issue is that Lagos The Mega City - that we all love and are proud off became Lagos because of certain things that NO other part of Nigeria or City in Nigeria enjoyed. It was exclusive to Lagos - it became designated as Nigeria's capital city.

Now it has shifted to Abuja and Abuja has blossomed.

We are not debating history. We know the history.
Today Lagos is a Mega City and Lagosians are varied. It is a fact.

so if i have a child and he grows to be an adult and i have no money to send him to university, and all the neighbors and towns people get together and help contribute money to send him to university. he graduates and becomes the best doctor and extremely rich and world renowned. does that mean he is no longer my son ? he is now the son of everyone who contributed to his education ? dont make me laugh bro. he remains my son but the others can enjoy in his success because they helped contribute to it but he still remains my son
He is your son, but without the critical contribution of others (infusion of Nigerian resources and federal capital designation) he will not be a world renowned doctor (mega city Lagos). He would have been like your other sons which did not receive the critical contribution (like Osogbo city). No big deal.

My point is simple Lagos is no different from Abuja.

The COAS is working very hard, risking life & limb to safeguard Nigeria from these foreign non African Middle Eastern allied Boko terrorists and he should be commended. Disparaging his work as "useless propaganda" is a reflection of your lack of intelligence.

lagos was built before oil was discovered. do your research
Of course Lagos preceded oil but it was NOT the mega city that it has become. Today Lagos is probably the biggest city in all of AFRICA. We are all very proud of Lagos. Trying to exclude anybody is courting disaster and problems.

Lagos grew to Mega City status because of Nigerian oil resources and because it was Nigeria's capital. Just Like Abuja has grown because of Nigerian oil resources and because it is Nigeria's capital.

lol
Lagos is Nigerian land- Nigeria's former capital and was built with Nigerian oil resources. The international airport (Murtala Muhammad Airport and deep sea ports) gave Lagos big advantages.

Lagos belongs to everybody - Yoruba, Igbo and Hausa and others included. So go tell a Hausa land owner or Igbo land owner that bought the property with their hard earned money and sweat and tears that the land is not theirs.

People (including the Oba of Lagos) need to be more guarded in their comments. But it is also clear that the Oba of Lagos in the heat of election cycle mispoke.

See as anti - Igbo hate and rage fill your heart. If you are NOT hating on Igbo, you trying to divide Igbo brother from brother. Seek help for your anti- Igbo bigotted small mind b4 it is too late. Bc of all this excessive Igbo hate, I can guess which tribe you are from.

My advice to you is to practice LOVE sometimes. The subject is crime but tribalists from one tribe trying to turn it into anti -Igbo thread.

igbo done enter one chance for this forum with this barrage of igbo bashing. ndigbo i gotta give you advice, humility wins friends. the reason everyone is happy to bash you is because of arrogance and abusing other tribes. see what you have created for yourself ? you have practically isolated yourself. now its everyone in nigeria united against igbo. yall need some introspection and dialogue and national igbo conference to change and correct your ways. the whole nigeria cannot just hate one tribe for nothing. it has to be a reason. think about that and work on that reason and then you can return to the table of brotherhood and we can all build this corruption free nigeria
Igbo bashing is generally done by ONE tribe alone. And we all know which it is

PassingShot:
I have not seen the insult in my comments so far. I have only stated my observations which some will agree with while some will disagree with it.

Needing to survey an entire population to draw a conclusion has long been rendered unnecessary by the use of sampling. So, you have no point in saying that I've not known Igbos in Abuja, UK, US, bla, bla, bla. In fact, online interaction through Facebook, Nairaland, Twitter and many other such platforms is enough for any good student to do a research and arrive at a reasonable conclusion.

Just so you know, I have had more than enough personal interaction with a lot of Igbos in Igboland and outside Igboland. The result is the same: Any Igbo man or woman (especially a leader) who does not stand for Biafra, no matter how clean, upright and detribalized he/she is, cannot be loved by the majority of Igbos. On the other hand, any Igbo leader, no matter how corrupt, unclean and even diabolic he is, will be held in high esteem as long as he professes unalloyed commitment to Biafra project.

Done with this issue.
What is Biafra? It is nothing. Rubbish talk by Uwazurike and his empty head cohorts.

Your problem is singular: You are prejudiced against Igbo and make big bold claims that are totally unsubstantiated. You said it is based on your experience.

One day you will learn to treat people as individuals and not make big rubbish claims about Igbos.
PoliticsRe: Oby Ezekwesili And Husband At Rccg's Bible College Graduation (photos) by RickyTan:

From experience I speak. Any clean, honest, upright and detribalized Igbo is mostly always hated by the Igbos. Oby Ezekwesili, Richas, Amaechi, Ogbonnaya Onu, etc. Very soon, the hatred may start for Dr. Kwachika if he starts to perform and identify with Hausas/Yoruba.
There is nothing wrong with Identifying with other Nigerian tribes. Nothing. Same Igbos you attack voted for OBJ. Jonathan that they voted for is an Ijaw man.

So you use a very broad brush to insult and attack a major Nigerian tribe. You cannot know even 0.1% of Igbos in Lagos, not talk of Igbos in Abuja or even in London or the US or South Africa etc to know what these individuals like or do not like. Have you made such broad comments against any other Nigerian tribe - like Hausa, Tiv? Or just Igbos?

Politics is politics- a dirty game played by professional politicians. Rochas is a Nigerian state governor recently reelected by Igbos - SO shows you that he is liked by the same Igbos you attack. My overall point is when you paint a major Nigerian tribe with vile insult over the actions or inactions of a handful of politicians that is an inaccurate projection and smacks of bias.

God Bless You and God Bless Me.
God Bless Nigeria

Buhari should not make the mistake of appointing any igbo person in any top position. Igbos always wanna play the "victim" as regards tribalism but the truth is igbos are the most tribalistic and clannish ethnic group in Nigeria. This isn't hate speech but in the last 4 years igbos in high offices have done more damages to the Nigerian economy than any other ethnic group. It's not surprising that the igbos supported pdp in the last presidential elections. Igbos thrive on theft you know.
