There are things you shouldn't just delve into. He could have quietly supported his preferred candidate without making it too obvious. You don't pick sides in situations like these because whatever the outcome, you up making enemies for yourself. The losers will hate you and the winners will like you

Everyone can't be a coward, okay

Una still get 4 more years for the new round of wailing and gnashing of teeth

The good news is that no one knows who would survive the 4 years. Many that shouted sai baba were killed by herdsmen, bandits and kidnappers sai baba APC brought. Hopefully, Igbo people would have sense and start sending their investment back home make poverty begin hammer una.

When we were growing up, we thought Nigeria's problem was the north due to the incessant religious riots there. I was always surprised when our elders said we should rather be wary of Yoruba people. What I saw in Nairaland in 2015 made me begin to align with the elders small small but in practice, I never had animus towards Yoruba people. My best mechanic was a Yoruba guy. Even most of the guys I hire are Yoruba. But you see what happened on Saturday eh, I've learned to keep Yoruba at arms length. It's even so confusing that there was no sane elderly voice that spoke against it. Hmmmm....our elders have always been right. I do hope Ndigbo gets smart and start moving their investments to Igboland. These people have tasted blood and it'll get worse.

Sammy07:
They didn't vote for Him not because his mom na Igbo or so.
But he's failing to identify to his root.

Will you guys vote for Alex otti or Charles soludo or even Peter Obi if you saw him calling Enugu people Wawa or Igbos Nyamri or Osu people. Will y'all vote for him?

Aketi has Igbo wife.
Adelekes all have Igbos
Seyi has a rivers wife
So what are you saying?

All these you're saying na your problem , we don't beg for your marriage

And why did they prevent others from voting? Why did they rig him out?

raskymonojendor:
Go and sit down. Governor Adeleke is half Igbo, Desmond Elliot's is half Delta Igbo, Banky W is half Rross Rivan e.t.c.

Aslong as you keep coming to the SW, Ibo girls/guys will keep falling in love with Yorubas - it's just natural.

You guys are exhibiting the stuff you're made of. No one is actually blaming you. Only the foolish Igbos putting their money in your tribalistic region. I just hope they learn really fast that this country can never be one and put their money where their mouth is - Igbo land.

Iamgrey5:
Are Yorubas in those communities trying to install leaders contrary to the wishes of those communities?

Really? Against the wishes of those people? So what we practice in Nigeria is tribal government abi? As Somalia abi Afghanistan? Against the wishes of those people when two Yoruba were contesting - Oh I just remembered. One has Igbo mother.

Okwyjesus:
That TRIBALISM is their nature. Education don't remove it from them.

Seriously, I'm surprised it hasn't happened before now. If Igbo were paupers, what this hateful tribe would have done to Igbo people eh

Iamgrey5:
You can always leave if you are not satisfied with the way the local community want to run their communities.

You can't create hate campaign against Yoruba leaders and then decide to impose the set of leaders you wish on the Yorubas.

When are Yoruba leaving Abuja and Enugu and Asaba and Port Harcourt? When we say this shouldn't be a country, you're the first to wail. Not because you love Nigeria but because you're too lazy to survive without it.

Sammy07:
Were Igbos attacked in Ondo, Ekiti, Oyo, Ogun, Kwara? Answer me?

Was it only Igbos that voted Obi in Lagos?

Na was it only Igbos that voted Obi that made him has close to 100k votes In Oyo?

Is GRV an Igbo man or a Yoruba man? I only pity Igbo girls planning to marry Yoruba men now and in the future. In the olden days, with what Yoruba just did, our ancestors would have brought out the ofo and decree that no man must give his daughter to a Yoruba man. What you people did is called aru in ala Igbo. I only pity all those children born by Igbo women to Yoruba men. Pity what they're passing through at this moment. Tufiakwa...

Iamgrey5:
I see some people living in Yoruba land attacking Yorubas on this thread..

Well the lesson I believe you should take is stop interfering in our local politics..

Presidential election is different pot of fish because everyone is trying to win everywhere.

The local elections is for the control and allocation of resources amongst local community..

Well...if you people could deny your brothers and sisters because their mothers are from another tribe, what won't you people do?

God1000:
Very heartbreaking situation, we still have a long way go in Nigeria

How is it so. I'm even surprised it didn't happen sooner. Every sensible Igbo man that has lived in Yorubaland knows that there is a deep-seated animus among the people. They only have been tolerant all these decades because of the wealth Igbo make for them.

I see separation as a best case scenario or back to regional government. I see Ndigbo growing sense by investing most of their wealth in Igbo land.

What do you see?

Never4getU:
Yes we agreed with u 100% but u must not lose sleep, people who census can't count in Lagos must not be seen stretching Lagos infrastructure investment. They should vacate roads network of Lagos State only for the yorubas to enjoy their thing.

Yorubaland isn't known tribalism for centuries but since the igbo think our hospitality is stupidity hence need to prove our rwsolve to claim ownership of what is rightly ours.

Will you keep kwayet. Who carry tribalism for head in Nigeria? Even the northerners are better than you lots.

Hahaha...2-face people. He'll still go behind and reflect their chameleonic spirit. Trust them at your own peril. It's Ndigbo still investing in their land that I pity.

Minime10:
The Igbo's are terrible human beings.
Thank God Obi didn't win, even though I was rooting for him at some point.
It is the Igbos that spoiled this Country.
A typical Igbo man and woman rejoice & feel happy when they cheat you in every little or big transaction you have with them. To them, whenever they cheat you, they called it smartness.
If you like, let an Igbo person become deputy God, he or she will still cheats you in any business transaction.
I wish the Government can allowed them to go with their Biafra.
Proudly South South!

You don't need to name your zone, name your village and tribe because there are many Igbo in SS. I'm sure you also hate the Igbo in your state if you're really from the SS. For now, we are advising our Igbo brothers to stop investing in Yorubaland. I'm sure you cannot stop the Igbo man from Asaba from investing in his place or the Igbo man from Obigbo and Etche from investing in his place. What we are saying is anywhere Igbo.

And be ready to move your family at a moment's notice. It'll get worse.

Invest only in Igbo land. If it happened in the 60's and 80's in the north, it would certainly happen in Yorubaland soon. In fact, it is already happening. For Igbo merchants, paying higher duties to use SS ports may start making sense at this point.

Gone are the days we believed that barbarism is exclusively a trait of the northern almajiri. Move your investments to Igboland and maintain skeletal services where you live. A word is enough for the wise.

Learner247:
People should tread with caution.

All these cutlasses and sticks won't achieve anything if simple laws are put in place to cripple your sources of livelihood. There is a reason the likes of Dangote, Ote$, Adenuga, Jim Ovia, TOE et.,al never outrightly display partisanship.

The Igbos are business people, investors in Lagos. Do your thing, earn your living and leave them to do their politics. If you will support anyone, you don't need to come out and start airing it so loudly.. Do what you feel will help your cause. As it is, whether GRV or Sanwo Olu, you guys would still succeed anyways, but now you seem to have created avoidable problems for yourselves.

All you guys needed to do was just to choose a few people to reach out to the governor of Lagos State and resolve matters and get your businesses back on track. You cannot fight the government and win! If Lagos State decides to turn the whole of LADIPO to a world class specialist hospital today, do you guys think you can stop them? No! They will just compensate you and go on with the project.

I say all these because this whole imbroglio is needless. What do you think you would have achieved with GRV? Would he have given you new lands? You can buy wherever you want when you need it with or without him. Now you are about to throw away your source of livelihood carelessly.

But you wail when they want their own country? Truly Yorubab are the problem of Nigeria.

The monsters have already perfected how to rig out GRV.

Why Nigeria will never work.

Very true. I think informed Christians know this is true. Not just in Nigeria but in many parts of Africa. These men have preelection pact with the devil. That's why they do not care about the people. In fact, the pacts mostly entail human sacrifices preelection and after gaining power.

How else do you think unqualified people are 'elected'? Human sacrifice. Why else do Nigerian politicians behave like the devil? It's part of their pact. If for instance, the devil's agreement with them involves sacrificing 5 million souls, they'll use many anti people's policies to accomplish this - owing salaries and pensions, encouraging extrajudicial killings, ensuring that ritualistic killings don't stop, skull mining encourage, causing chaos through agents of the devil such as BH, ISWAP, UGM, Fulani militia, etc.

Until we consciously reject satanic leaders in Africa, the impact of these evils would continue. Human sacrifices in several guises would also continue.

No need to join Obidients. Shettima is waiting. That's why you guys planted him there.

Rigging... It means that something will be rigged to your favour soon. Just like Tinubu, something you're not qualified for will be given to you. This, have I seen.
