Story story!

Mc Oluomo from dirty Kwara claims Lagos,

Tinubu the Irigbiji criminal from Osun claims Lagos too.

Why not you too?

Na Edo people I pity but One day all of you claiming Edo property will answer una papa name by fire by force.

Tell us your father village let's Google it if you are a man and not a woman in men's clothing like an average Yoruba.

🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣

Illiterate.
Read,una no go read except sell chewing sticks for traffic.


The theory espoused by the Oba is a recent attempt to mythologise Lagos along the pathway of logic conceived by the new Benin royal. In the last 600 years, no history book has ever made reference to Lagos as the territory of Benin, nor the city’s royal stool in the context the Oba wanted us to believe. There are 52 traditional kingdoms in Lagos all of which have their history. Out of these 52, only the Oba of downtown Lagos (Eko, one of the smallest territories) has any relationship with Benin, and in reality, the network still goes back to Ile-Ife.

The current stool of the Oba of Bini, Ewuare II was created and nurtured between 1100 and 1300 by Oranmiyan, the descendant of Oduduwa, the first known King of Yoruba who had ruled at Ile-Ife around the 9th Century, some 300 years before his grandson established the Bini Kingdom.

The myth of Benin ownership of Lagos was first created during the visit of Oba Erediauwa of Benin when he visited Lagos in the pattern that followed the November visit of Oba Ewuare. In that year, Oba Erediuwa said Benin founded Lagos. The Oba of Lagos, Oba Rilwan Akiolu, responded by saying the Oba “made sense to him”. Amid criticisms from Lagos stakeholders, the Lagos Oba reversed his earlier claim. “I never said Bini owned Lagos, but the influence of the Oba of Benin, nobody can wash it away in Lagos,” Oba Akiolu said during the December 2017 launch of “Defend the Defenseless”, a book written by Arese Carrington, wife of a former US ambassador, Walter Carrington. The visit of the Oba Erediauwa marked the beginning of a new theory on Ekaladehan which some Bini people described in this century and for the first time as their own version of Oduduwa.

This is a very incoherent and distorted account of who Oduduwa was. Yoruba has a well-documented history dating back to the BC sustained and recorded over the years through written accounts by scholars and researchers all over the world and by Yoruba themselves in oral and written epistemology. The accounts are also recorded physically and spiritually in various Yoruba cosmologies. One of the most reliable and copious documentation of Yoruba history is found in Ifa which has 256 odus(books). Each odu has 800 stories.

BadBradley:
don't get emotional like a new road side cunt trying anal for the first time.

If Bini, igala founded Onitsha they should have traditional stool existing there and their language and landmark will prevail.

What is 95% of place in Lagos occupied by only Yoruba? Are you having emotional diarrhoea? Did you conduct statistics there?

And you call Awka a cesspit? You must be high on unrefrigerated, unfermented adulterated alcohol.

And calling me Igbo shows how cheap and desperate you are to score cheap points.

As a man from south south geopolitical region and have traveled extensively across Nigeria, no capital in south west can stand to Onitsha or Awka or Enugu. It's not in your culture to buy land and develop as a cultural expectation.

You can't have it.

Waiting....

lol
Look at an ant comparing itself to an elephant.
Yorubas have been building standard houses even when your ancestors were living on trees and in raffia huts.
Yorubas do not dominate building materials businesses alone,they built the first storey buildings in Nigeria.
If it were not for the Yorubas,you will still be living in huts till date.

In Lagos,Oyingbo-Yaba axis is dominated 95% by the Yorubas.This is my area.We have our family house around here.

I can bet you that you cannot post 8 videos of good different places from Onitsha or even the entire Igboland but I will post more than 30 different,beautiful places from Ibadan.
Even the Igbo voltron on nairaland always flee when faced with this challenge (maybe it is still you using another monicker)
I know that you will japa now because it is a herculian task.

Yorubas built Onitsha.Igbos are hut people who have learnt from Yorubas what real building is all about.

mrvitalis:
Everyone knows that's the only solution
Obi said he would borrow 12 billion dollars that he had the connections

The Koko is what you use the borrowed money to do

APC from Buhari to Tinubu now keep borrowing to build infrastructure with the hope that the infrastructure would kick start development

Not only are the infrastructure over inflated they are sighted wrongly so can't even breakeven

So they just increase our debt service, increase recurrent expenditure and have absolutely no increase in revenue

Obi solution is to borrow money

Give it to the people, support business especially in export potential business and import substitutes

1) you create employment
2) you boost revenue, as this businesses come for the needed loan you capture them into the tax net
3) you don't increase debt service per say as the people would pay back the loan

This can kick start a chain of events that kick start the economy

OBi and Tinubu are not the same

Obi is a failure.
Where is his Next International in UK now?
It has been liquidated.
When Soludo said that during Obi's tenure,Anambrans poverty increased more than 50%,some zombies nearly crucify him.
Soludo recently told us about the value of Anambra's money he illegally put in Fidelity bank.All has been failure upon failure.
Talk is cheap.
He will borrow money and squander it unintelligently because of who he is.

BadBradley:
yoruba cannot develop Onitsha when they cannot show any examples in their region.

There are no binis in Onitsha. Stay away from hard drugs
Igala people have no heritage to develop any where otherwise they will replicate it in their own places.

While not holding brief for Igbos, they have the culture of building houses as could be seen in any place they are domiciled in any part of the country.

Onitsha looks good when driving through the express with those 5/6 storey buildings but can't be compared to Lagos, Port Harcourt etc

But your last comment is borderline imbecilic.

You are a fake Igbo if you dont know that Igala,Benin and the descendants of Yoruba were the ones who built Onitsha.
Azikiwe and Obi of Onitsha have said this repeatedly.A commoner like you knows nothing,sir.

Unfortunately,Awka which is the capital of Anambra is a cesspit reason you cling to the 52 sq km Onitsha built by non Igbos, as one of the best thing that will ever happened to Igboland
I would have told you to compare with a place built and inhabited 95% by Yorubas in Lagos or even Ibadan which is more developed than the 5 SE states combined infrastructurally but I know that you will flee as you are wont to do.

You all always brag like Ojukwu who said Biafra had the best army in Africa..which was in fact a ragtag army.

A coward like you will flee now if you are told to post videos of your region now because it is all slummy.

NairalandForumo:
Built by FG and to be repaid by the Igbos for the next 45 years using toll gate, is that the same with 3rd mainland bridge that the expense was so much that the FG lost the total estimate of the bridge yet does not have toll gate....

Some of you like talking nonsense sha....

You just like yarning dust.Is the first Niger bridge tolled?
Was this 2nd Niger bridge tolled before you destroyed it?
Lagos-Ibadan express road was tolled for a long period until they were satisfied that they have squeezed the masses dry.
I heard they will soon introduce tolling on a lot of roads.
The people who had paid the most toll in Nigeria..either FG or state...are the Swesterners and they dont play victims like you lot.

LagosFc:
its even an insult to compare Yaba with that slum during my service year in imo, driving through onitsha, with the rowdy and dirty environment with lout everywhere then you wonder if it mc oluomo that is also responsible for owomida in onitsha

Don’t be fooled by the picture, that’s not the reality of the situation in onitsha, very dirty market full of agbero and miscreants

I have been to the East.
The only good place there is where we have those mainly 4 storeys and maybe one or two 5 storey buildings around upper eweka to Obossi end of that road down to Onitsha market...not main market...around Nkpor junction.
All the rest are slums bar the only GRA...Onitsha GRA phase 1 and 2....that they have.These are the main places you see that Igbo voltron post everytime on nairaland.
Okpoko slum is even bigger than that space.
If you read the history of Onitsha,the fairly developed area was developed by Igala-Benin-Yoruba descendants.Even the Obi of Onitsha attested to that.

This Igbo voltron has taken over nairaland.
Look wetin him push to frontpage.

ANSMEDIA:
“This is Onitsha, the greatest Igbo city and the economic capital of the eastern Nigeria. Onitsha is like the Lagos of the eastern region.

Onitsha is just 52 sq km according to google,it has no infrastructures like universities,stadia etc.Maybe it can be compared to Oyingbo-Yaba axis,only that the place is very much more developed than Onitsha.

LagosFc:
I guess they know that the SW leads in that regard but they can’t just stomach the fact that we better than them they hate it when others are doing better than them in any aspect

There is nothing they can do just like their ancestors couldnt do anything.Some wise ones amongst them are learning the rope of progress and positivities from Yorubas so they can be as great and positively resilient like the Yorubas.

LagosFc:
no institution from ipob region….and some ignorant clown will come online and tell us how SE is more educationally advanced than SW🤣

People that their ancestors were mostly schooled in west, and till this day they would give any thing up to school in the Sw, take them serious at your own peril

Dem and fake Statisense wey no get methodolgies be like 5 & 6.
On a serious note,SW has always and continue to be the leader in education and numerous other sectors.

phantom:
Drivel as usual! You better thank God everyday for Awolowo. That man was a visionary without which the south west wouldn't be much better than the North today.

Sadly, the money used in giving some of your FREE EDUCATION by the sage should have been used to carry olosho. Better use of the cash if you ask me.

For instance, the man who sired you would be an example of the folks I talked about in the last paragraph judging from the way you, his son turned out... a hopeless failure! 🤦🏾‍♂️

Consolation song again.
Tell us what your lazy tribe has that can be compared to the exponential achievements of the Yorubas or you just like your domination in gala and chewing stick hawking on SW roads :

That your consolation song is stale,sir.
Poverty stricken Igbos can only buy with mouth but reality shows otherwise.
The few that have lands amongst the Igbos,Hausas etc have the land leased to them and it could be revoked anytime,so find another consolation song because they have nothing.What you buy,take home and own is yours.

A lazy man from a lazy tribe calling hardworking,smartworking Yorubas lazy?
Wonders shall never end.

Calling Yoruba who dominate the building materials market,entertainment,music,movies,sports,ict,new and second hand vehicles,petrol stations and tanks etc in Nigeria and who lent money to Igbo ancestors twice lazy?
Does laziness have another meaning in Igbo language?

Does anyone from your lazy tribe have businesses that are up to even 45 years?
Most of your businesses were ruined because of your laziness and incompetence.
It is only Yoruba people that have businesses spanning more than 120,100,90,80 years and still kicking till date because of their competence and hardwork.

It is only Yorubas that have multibillion,million dollars companies abroad,your lazy tribe does not have one except puffing powder.
I can post more than10 verified Yoruba multibillion,million dollar businesses abroad with their websites while Igbos have none.

Even our churches are more 'hardworking' grin and prosperous than yours.
You are delusioned if you think you can come close to Yorubas in making wealth.You are far,far behind.

phantom:
Epistle! When you finish, logoff,go offline and pay rent to your igbo landlord. Don't forget,chinedu is coming with 5 million to buy the one plot where you buried your parents 😂😂

Ebin pa wa losers! You control everything with the North yet your region trails the North as the poorest region in Nigeria... BACK TO BACK.

😂... a poor igbo leaves the south east to lagos with a polythene bag and in 5 years your fathers are falling over themselves to sell the graves of your ancestors to that same boy.

What does that say about you lazy indigenes? You have "gold" on your land but you can't see it. An igbo comes, sees it, mines it, makes bank then you begin to hate on the boy.. 😂

The igbos are too competitive.. even amongst themselves. Deal with it.

Broke ass ronu bastards! Na online una sabi make mouth... OFFLINE,its a different story 😂

lol
How can Yoruba,your slave masters fall over lazy poor things like you?

I'm sure he's living in a village in SW, he left their so called cities in SE to seek for food in SW.

Dont mind the gala hawker.
Na online dem dey get mouth.

phantom:
You can't live in the south east.. you wont survive there. The place is too competitive for idiots like you.

Its like a snail going to the land of the cheetahs to compete in racing...

Is it competitive for gala and chewing sticks hawkers only because the last time we checked,SWesterners dominate businesses even abroad,they own massive billion dollars businesses while lazy Igbos have none.

🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
U know the big laugh I had reading this reply?
My simple statements which I always keep simple as always are now "flowery" and happen to be "big words"?
🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
Clutching at straws to save ur face won't do the trick.
Does anyone with common sense need data to tell agree that there are more lgb0s in SW than Yorubas in SE?
If u didn't agree with that initial statement, why didn't you suggest the removal of Lagos?

lol
Why will Yorubas go to the SE when everybody is fleeing the place to the SW due to poverty.
That clown too is probably living under the bridge in the SW

Emetex22:
I bet you are in shock

All Nigerians are in shock of Igbos' cowardice truly.
Imagine small Igala colonising and enslaving millions of cowardly looking,butt naked weak homosapiens.Your people worship Igala's Nri till date.

Emetex22:
If that story makes you sleep better at night, take it, Igala and Ijaws how are they compared to Igbos? a tribe whose women had a riot and fought the British against oppresive tax, Aba women riot, we don't have trace of cowardice lol, you kind are low lives and embeciles, our progress keeps u awake at night lo

If only wishes were horses.

Emetex22:
Atleat we converted without loosing our land unlike what Fulani caliphate did to your ancestors in Illorin, you can't hide anymore

You should bury your head in shame for being cowards who small Igala colonised and Ijaw used as slaves.
Nobody takes slaves serious.

Just like posting the pic of Makoko as Lagos.
You are just stressing yourself.
Ibadan remains more developed with more infrastructures than the entire 5 SE states combined.

So a street is massive Ibadan now.
I dont understand.

“If godfatherism work in Lagos, it will be impossible for it to work in Rivers. The day I finish my tenor, I pack my things and go. Rivers people will chose their Governor”.

In Nigeria,it is only in Lagos that Godfatherism(some people call it mentorship in other climes) has worked perfectly because Tinubu is a good manager of humans.

uniquelyspecial:
I'm very fine thank you.
However, I'm concerned about you. Are you okay?

Hope you dey okay,sir?

uniquelyspecial:
I hope all is well with you?

Hope you dey okay,sir?

uniquelyspecial:
Na you dey share am give us. Ask another question

Na you dey share statisense too.Ask another thing jooor.

uniquelyspecial:
Na me be statisense weg release the data?

Na me be ranking entity wey release the best schools?

uniquelyspecial:
I hope you know that a secondary school is expensive to study in doesn't make it the best or one of the best?

What metric was used to adjudge those schools as best?
Even Ambassador's College that we know have been wining the Cowbell competitions (which could be a metric) wasn't nt put on the list

lol
Pls,sir.What is the metric Statisense used?

Gbadoboy:
Oya bring genuine data to dispute Stati sense own nah. I am waiting.

.

Gbadoboy:
True. I can see the impact on our South West Brothers.

As SW is churning out the best brains in science,arts etc ehn?
It was recently on nairaland here where the best African scientists were 2 Swesteners and some others from other African countries and a British company KPMG recently showed how versatile SW education is when they mostly picked Swesterners for their top positions in Africa.
If you are good,show it in reality and dont let it just be an unconfirmed paper thing.

Ebubu2:
Keep living in the past.

lol
The stat shows that the North has better (or is qualified) teachers than the South
Reality shows that SW schools are the best from tertiary to the bottom.
The best 10 private universities are in the SW,best secondary schools,best primary schools even the best products like lawyers,doctors,engineers etc are from the SW.
For the Igbo guy running his mouth,educated and exposed Igbos still eagerly prefer schools in the SW because they are the best with the highest standard.

Stop posting Statisense data because they are mostly unsubstantiated.They mostly use AI and they have no methodologies they follow.

If you post genuine data from UNDP,World bank,NBS...then people will believe.

With this Statisense known unsubstantiated data,SW still remains where every Nigerian comes to for the best education.
SW universities and schools have been and continue to be the best.

For the one complaining about debt.
SW states are more viable hence the readiness of creditors to give them financial facilities unlike unviable states.
If you dont understand,ask USA and China,they are the most indebted nations in the world.
As for the critical sectors being run by the Yorubas,dont be too much in a hurry because Nigeria's economy is going to be the best and largest economy in Africa soonest even before the end of Tinubu's first term.
They are deliberste in what they are doing.
They have refused to go cosmetic,which is the manner Nigeria has been run since its inception.
There is a great and joyous illumination at the end of the tunnel.
