Yea and am sure its also better than selling a human head for 4k like your kinsmen have been caught doing over and over again.

Yes o, at least, they don't feast on it like one tribe from E........

LiberaDeus:
You cant even read sef. How does your question tally with what i said there?

Owoda, better go park to toll gate park. This is rush hour period, make you collect enough money so you go drink agbo jedi for night and tomorrow morning.

See wawa igbo, Owoda is better than using a child as collateral for 100naira debt. Better than selling ones child just to buy akpu. We have the news here, many.

LiberaDeus:
Mumu, who dash you land

If you never buy land, sorry you are still a tenant or living under a tenant.

Stop denying your state, why are you not claiming Osun where you are from?

Nobody is dragging state with you.

I have friends from lagos(indigenous people).People from Ikorodu, isheri, Epe etc

They are proud of their heritage, why are you attaching yourself to their heritage?

Be proud of your heritage and stop acting like an omonile.

Those your friends that are indigens must be igbo by tribe from ikorodu and epe and they speak wawa igbo

Each time I look at reality (not the long episode those delusional fellows are making up there) on ground I can't help but laugh

Who's exactly loosing,poor and growing economically.
I read that mofo long episode up there asking why yoruba from other state lives in Lagos I was like WTF

Abi o, I asked him why other anambra state indigens are in awka, why other imo indigens are in owerri. The mumu no fit answer me. Just imagine a dumb question that a madman shouldn't ask. Tuesday, they cry Lagos is biniland, tomorrow, they wail it is no man's land. You will now be wondered where they belong. Such a confused tribe. And one will now wonder why nwazurike and nwosu called them foolish and lazy thinkers

LiberaDeus:
Who dash am rule?

In reality, his tribesmen rule lagos why the others sit and loaf about.

Count the state governor and all his appointees, how may are they?

Plus their state assembly and all the local govt chairmen and councillors

Are they more than 2000 in number?

So a population of over 10 million yorubas will console themselves at night that a figure of less than 2000 yorubas lord over igbos and them in lagos meanwhile they milk the state dry through their different cronies.

What a pathetic life. The remaining 10 million or more yorubas will compete for everything with the non yorubas, some even work for igbos and live in their houses . Well as you said let them imagine they control the politics while we continue fighting for the economy and lets see who is better off

See mumu, sebi all your legislature in alaigbo are up to 40million.

LiberaDeus:
Hehehe

please dream yours.

In case math is hard for you, 2 generations would be like 60 to 80years

Close your eyes and imagine how lagos would like then politically and economically. Am sure nigeria wouldnt seperate by then cause you guys wont have the balls and for every year we spend together in this sh***ole, we get more and more of yours and you get nothing from ours. Think of that my friend.

Think of that igbo man making a bank transfer now to complete his acquisition of 2 plots of land in Ibeju-lekki or even Mowe, Ketu and every place you can imagine. Think of that igbo mother giving birth to twins now in a hospital on the mainland and think of what those twins will be in decades from now and consider that the igbo women giving birth in lagos are in their hundreds of thousands and they are growing their kids in lagos.

If a life with omo igbo is not nice for you then things are about to get a whole lot worse. Think abt the time frame from 1998 to 2017 and the numbers of non yorubas that have increased in those 19 years and think of how the next 19 years will be.

They twins will be Oba of Lagos na

totit:
No truer words @ the bolded this is why I hardly comment on NL. Haven found that the only strength and place they find solace is here.

The second bolded is true too. Infact, Lagos is reclaiming back her land ie,..which is the recent on festac and of recent the former state house was won by Lagos.

I like playing with them here on nairaland. They want to die because of our land. It is a privilege

LiberaDeus:
Oga whether its 3 or 1 or whatever figure doesnt matter. I will look for the report i saw showing the representatives and even if i dont find it , it doesnt change anything abt what i have said.

Please tell Ambode to hasten up his LUC, i was disappointed when he even reduced it, when the cost of living skyrockets, please remember not to complain.

Another ipob bureu stat have changed direction again. From 3 igbomen to whether 3 or 1. This people won't stop making me laugh . Today igbo are 90%, tomorrow 70%, nest tomorrow, 50%. All I know is that the stat will never go below 40%.

Pigsandidiots:
Baba, I am just watching how they are making themselves happy on nairaland while the real thing is happening here. Those of them that knows the truth will be watching the foolishness of their tribesmen and shaking head. They are on nairaland making themselves happy and liking their comments by themselves while the real thing going on. They make law in Lagos, all they do is coming to nairaland behind their keypad and rant. When you will expect them to go to the national assembly and protest. That one said 3 igbos representing in Lagos state house, he can't even mention their names . Even the one emeka that is there is just like figurehead. Let them be here making themselves happy and after go in and take their akpu while the main deal is done. Soon, another one will come out and open thread to cry again. We are enjoying it.

Baba, If you see as I dey laugh here ehn. When he said 3 igbomen in the Lagos house assembly, I cannot but laugh. But I later think maybe he's talking of Lagos in Portugal and not the one we have here. He can't even mention their names. I am just laughing as if I inhale laughing gas.

LiberaDeus:
Leave them let them be talking sh*t.

I dont have a problem with their oodua land as long as they dont sit on the fence.

They are too complacent, cowardly and lazy. They think sitting on the fence and waiting for things to materialize is wisdom.

In the creation of nigeria, Zik was pro nigeria(sth i blame him for), Sardauna was anti and later turned pro. Awo was sitting on the fence, he waited to see the stronger side so he could join. They never want to drive initiative because of fear.

When 1967 came, they clearly new seperation was right but supported the bigger side and hence made the easier decision. Today they are complaining of igbo migration, what did their fathers think in 1967? that we would be eating orji in the east throughout Nigerias existence while they cart away with every federal benefit.

Tinubu had been shouting restructuring since, immediately a pathway came to enjoy unitary govt, Tinubu and all his cronies suddenly think restructuring or a national conference is needless.

The other cr-etin on the other thread alcatraz was talking abt leaving the country and urging others to do so, now they have seen the country is going nowhere they now want the easy solution.

Imagine a sizeable percentage of an educated and so called cosmopolitan ethnic group following the hero of almajiris, in the north Buhari is worshipped by almajiris and sophisticated yorubas think the god of the almajiris is fit to be their god also, what a shame.

Lets enjoy one nigeria together. in 2 generations, lagos would be so cosmopolitan that the tribal identity would be so erased.

I like your dream

Purehuman:
This is the crass thinking of a typical Yoruba man, he thinks because Lagos is a yoruba state that means he has influence more than others in the entity called Nigeria. Like my brother said, we are all immigrants in Lagos and we all went to look for breakfast so that we won't die before nightfalls.

There is no shame in admitting the sweet truth.

Nice you are as.itting you are immigrant. Enjoy your stay. The owners are the ones in control. Sorry okay

LiberaDeus:
Na that one dey vex me

The right thing dey should tell people that they feel disrespect lagos shld be sth like

"Guy respect the indigenes and the culture of the state, I am from Oyo state and i dont disrespect lagos"

But what you hear would be;

"Omo igbo, we go soon pursue una comot from lagos, una no get respect for una HOSTS, after we don accomodate una bla bla bla"

Please who made Wasiu from Osogbo my host, or tajudeen from Offa my host? Or how did Demola from Oye-Ekiti accomodate me pls?

Is he not in lagos to hustle like me? Why in no dey in village?

See Omo una jumping over themselves. Yoruba law is just the beginning. Una just dey start. Make una dey here they give themselves hope on nairaland.

LiberaDeus:
Oga last i checked. If igboman no get opinion, just try and buy any of the listed items below and see if an igboman would be involved in the whole value chain then tell yourself if he has an opinion or influence in yoruba land

- Electronic(TV, radios, speakers)
-Mobile phones
-Laptops
-Building materials
- Tiles
- Toiletries
-Roofing
-Cars
-Car spareparts (brakepads, engine oil, brake oil, brake discs, engines etc)
-laptop accesories
-Furniture
-Interior decorations
the list can go on to infinity

Just try and live for one month without utilizing an igbo man and tell me whether he is relevant or not.

FYI, there are 3 Igbo representing lagos in the state house of assembly. That my friend is enough influence for someone who you claim is irrelevant.

As for me, i dont want to be relevant to you, i just want to live and survive but unfortunately for me, i cant do that in lagos for years without being relevant to you. So think of the percentage of Igbos in lagos then think of the relevance they actually have

I have been living without utilizing anybody. At the bolded hehehehehe comedy extravaganza. 3 igbomen my foot. Who dash una. The last time I checked, only Jude emeka is representing in Lagos House, so where did you get the two

QueenSuccubus:



And all the broke boiz will be flooding her DM by now...She should let them have an AUDITION

Broke girl talking.

blackjack21:
That's really unwise thing she did, Doesn't she know that God help those who helped themselves. Does she love being raped?

So why are people blaming the government that the Christian girls were not ransomed from the terrorist when they were the ones who wouldn't let go because of the love of their imaginary friend.

This just made things more complicated.

[/s]Shut up, which ransome are you talking about. Didn't the Boko Haram boys themselves said they were not paid any ransome, that they released them because they are Muslims. The girl is not coward like you oga.

Pigsandidiots:
Don't waste your precious time dragging with that guy. Like you said, let him go to any local government in any part of Yoruba land to tell them he's from there with his name. When igboman thinks he has opinion in yorubaland.

Yes boss. .

LiberaDeus:
Oga go and rest, you are reasoning as daftly as your brothers on this thread.

If you argue with a fool, they will bring you down to your level of stupidity and beat you with experience.
The fact that all you Swners here couldnt see the reason behind my question and see the logic behind it actually speaks volumes.

You people cant see the logic in the question thats why you attack the question as simplistic. It just shows the level of clannish and myopic reasoning you people display

Of course i know lagos is yoruba land and in the SW but you foolish people still didnt try to answer why it has a disproportionate number of yorubas living there compared to other places. Forget the non yorubas in SW, think about the yorubas there and ask yourself this,

What are the reasons for the influx into lagos over the past decades ? Why lagos over abeokuta and others?

When you answer that question to yourself then tell me why the answer shouldnt be valid for Nupes, Ebiras, Edos, Bini, Igalas, Igbos, Jukun, Tivs, Hausas, Ijaws, Urhobos and every ethnic group in nigeria migrating to lagos.

Why are the influx of igbo in Lagos, a Yoruba land. Why am I even arguing with this one. Even your leaders already said you are a lazy thinkers and foolish. Which reasonable people will ask such a stupid question. Like I said, go and ask South Africans why they are many in juhanesbourg instead of other cities in their country. Gush, I now see the reason why nwazurike and nwosu said what they said.

[s]

LiberaDeus:
You just helped me answer the question and display your foolishness.

As you said "i am not from lagos but i can live in any part of yorubaland"

I will also tell you " i am not from lagos but i can live in any part of nigeria"

Most importantly i wont forget my heritage and be claiming attache to lagos because its in nigeria unlike you who doesnt care abt your state but wants to forcefully force his ancestry into lagos

I am also not from owerri but i can live in owerri and i dont have to be claiming owerri as mine when i see hausas or yorubas there. Evry nigerian has the right to live peacefully there and thrive. It will be foolish of me to be reminding every nigerian in owerri that this is igboland and my land also. If i claim to be advanced then i wont be forcing clannish attachments just because i want to have an advantage over somebody.

The questions you asked abt people living in enugu being from enugu just buttresses my point.
There are anambrarians in enugu and other nigerian nationals there, so whats the fuss about. Why should an anambrarian be fighting a yoruba man in enugu and telling him to respect his land when he is from anambra. Is it not shamelessness that will make you forcefully attach your identity to a place that had serious federal investment.

A person with dignity will live the arguments for indigenes and face his own home state of origin and think abt how that place can compete with others. Not you guys that have totally forgotten that you are from Osun, Oyo , Ekiti etc.

You better start dealing with the fact that we are all in this country together and if you like draw an imaginary line in your head to demarcate oodualand in order to feel you have sth special, if you cant fight for your independence and be free from nigeria, then oodua land still remains part of nigeria and i am a bonafide nigerian citizen who can live and do business anywhere as long as am willing to aide peacefully and pay for everything.

[/s]And who ask you not to live in any part of Nigeria, even as an African, you can live in any part of Africa, so also in the world, you can live in any part of the world but does that make you the citizen of the nation. oya carry your name as an igbo and go to any local government in Lagos and tell them you are from Lagos and let them see your name. Let see if they will not see you as mad man. If I carry my name as Yoruba to any part of Yoruba land and tell them I am from there, they will only ask me some few questions, my name already qualify me for any further things. Even in your own local government, if you go there to claim you are from the state, your name will determine what next to do. Let one haruna carry his himself to any part of igboland to claim origin of the particular place and see what his name will do for him. Your name speaks volume of you. Staying in any part will never qualify you for indigen, every Yoruba in Lagos can say they are from Lagos, every Yoruba in ogun can say they are from there. There are family in ondo that bears Tinubu, if he's in Lagos, he will get the state of origin, unlike you from far away igboland. Open your brain boy and think. My brother's kid have both Ibadan local government identification, as well as his state of origin own. Tomorrow, he can go to Lagos and do the same. His name wins it for him. Not the he bears okechukwu and want to claim any part of yorubaland because he lives there. Know the difference. Oga, how many of us did you see telling you he's not from his state? My question is, do an igboman has any option than to say he's from his state here in Lagos? Even if you deny, your name will expose you. Let that stick into your skull. Yes, oodua still part of Nigeria, even if Nigeria divides today and the oodua stands, you still have right to live in any part. But like I said, your name disqualifies you completely. Chukwudi, you cannot tell me you are from Lagos. Mind that.

Pigsandidiots:
Bla, bla, bla. Many ondo people are living in ekiti, many ekiti are living in ondo, many Osun people are living in ogun, many ogun are living in oyo. No igboman claim Lagos you say, I laugh in Swahili, I can't count how many people bearing emeka, Chigozie but trying to claim Lagos. Even on facebook, you will see your brothers claiming Lagos as state of origin. I have not seen Yorubas that will not tell you where he's from, even those that has not been to their states before knows where they come from. Why did Anthony Joshua telling us he's from ogun and not Lagos, but he has every right to say he's from Lagos. You say igbo man will tell you his village, before nko, will he claim lagos before, where will he say he gets his name from, does someone bearing chukwudi has any back up to say he is from lagos, a yoruba land. Are you ok. Do you expect someone that bears adamu to come to any yoruba state to claim any of them even if he can speak the language. So how can someone bearing kunle living in enugu claim enugu and not tell where he is from. Does he has any other option. Oga, open yor brain and reason like humans.

My brother, their matter weak me o.

LiberaDeus:
You are an idiot. Comprehension is your problem. You read at face value and cant see between the lines.

You couldnt see that the question was asking why the number of yorubas in lagos in comparison to other SW cities is very high.

Because you cant see the meaning, you cant see the potential answer and the implication of that answer.

Mumu, Lagos is our commercial center, I repeat, you ask the most stupid question. What you should ask is why are igbo many in Lagos. What answer does a dumb question need Abeg?

[s]

LiberaDeus:
You are so foolish.

Me asking that question is like asking italians why the population of milan is higher than that of genoa or calabria. And believe you me, without being defensive, they can give technical reasons stating influences like economic, infrasructural, political etc a7s to why those cities have higher populations. And using italy as an example, most of the people living in Milan most likely do not have ancestry that can be traced there to m0re than 300 years.

The same goes for any country. There is a reason why new york has a higher population than new jersey or Los angeles has a higher population than nevada. But your myopic mind cant see the reason behind the question.

The technical reasons that has caused most yorubas from other states in the SW to migrate down to lagos also holds for other citizens of the country. So dont act surprised that igbos and other ethnicities are in lagos.

I am almost 100% sure that you are not a lagosian by ancestry. Why are you all so ashamed of your states? No igbo will forget where he is from. We know our states, we travel there frequently, we build houses there and we are proud of them even if we utilize other opportunities presented by our country at large. For the mere fact that you see it as a taboo that people leave their regions to come to yours shows that at heart you yorubas do not believe in nigeria. You want to eat your cake and have it. You claim to support one nigeria but you dont want one nigerian migration. You expect the largest seaport to be in your region but you dont expect the largest importers to be there.

I can almost bet that you are not from Lagos as over 90% of yorubas in lagos are not from lagos originally. Being cheap, many of them have shelved their original identity to form Omo eko.

I repeat again, you are not the owner of any land you do not have documentation for. You are only emotionally attaching yourself there because the indigenous people of lagos are also yorubas. You are not the owner or co-owner of lagos or any thing there unless you pay for it. Get that into your head.

[/s]You write too much epistle. I thought you are intelligent until you asked a very dumb question that a madman that his brain has been damaged must not ask. You do not need to be, I am not from Lagos but I am from oodua land, I mean yorubaland of which Lagos is a bona-fide part. I can live in any part of Yoruba land. Are all your people living in Owerri are from owerri? Are all your people living in awka from awka? Are all your people living in enugu from enugu? Are all South African living in juhanesbourg from juhanesbourg? Are you this daft to be asking such a Mumu question. Tell me how you want to defend yourself in front of nwazurike that you are not foolish as he said with this kind question a mad man must not ask. Even in your state where you come from, do they give you all you have for free?

Omo, this Michael004 guy is really tormenting you o. Where is the guy self . I need to praise him.

LaudableXX:
Your opening statement shows that you are bent on being mischievous. Lagos state has Yoruba origins, as well as an indigenous Yoruba population. Yes or No? The answer you give, will reveal if you are a cretin, or a practical objective observer.

Secondly, Yorubas were already indigenous to Lagos, right from pre-colonial times before the seaports, airports etc., were built. Yorubas already existed in Lagos, with some of their kith and kin spread across different areas, who came across to join them. Go back and read up the history of Lagos and its environs, as well as the different indigenous Yoruba groups (e.g. Aworis etc) that make up the state. So what is the issue? How can you even ask why Yorubas are in Lagos? It is laughable. It is like asking how can Igbos be in Onitsha or Aba?

Calabar was also once a federal capital. Even Lokoja was once the capital of the British Northern Nigeria Protectorate, and later became a centre of administration, for the British colonial government after the amalgamation. What is the population of Igbo people in Lokoja, compared to their population in Lagos?

Lagos Island was only the federal capital, and NOT the whole of Lagos state. Areas like Ikeja, Palmgrove, Ilupeju were parts of the old Western Region. Yet it did not stop your people from migrating into that part of the old Western region. Lagos stopped being a federal capital 27 years ago, but your Igbo people still keep flocking into Lagos every single day, till date. So stop trying to use that excuse of 'federal capital.' Your people also trooped into Port-harcourt en masse. Port-harcourt was not a federal capital, even though it had an international seaport, an international airport as well as lots of infrastructure invested in it.

While going up and down, your people keep claiming their SE region is economically viable. But why would anyone leave an economically viable region? And if you claim that they migrate because they want new opportunities, are you admitting that there is a lack of opportunities for your people in the SE region? It then becomes a paradox. How can an economically viable region, lack opportunities?

Laziness is really not a reason for lack of migration. And you need to stop thinking that 'buying and selling,' is the only type of business or hard work, that exists. There are people who invent things and solve problems that cause them to earn millions, without leaving their zones.

If there is enough prosperity in the SE region, how come your people still end up leaving that 'prosperity,' and going to other regions to seek opportunities? Again, can a truly prosperous area, lack opportunities? And are these new opportunities your people seek, totally absent from their region, or is your region of prosperity and potentials devoid of opportunities, that can make your people truly successful? You really need to stop contradicting yourself....

Very laughable my brother. I have never seen such a dumb question that a kindergarten student must not ask before. Why Yorubas are in Lagos hehehehehe.

imhotep:
Afonja want to sell their land and still own it

You selling land to those that use their childrens as collateral for 100naira debt

LZAA:

laudate and strikethem wee not like this

I didn't see you on the thread where one of your billionaire sisters used her daughter for collateral for 100 naira debt. Why did you avoid the thread

LiberaDeus:
Please permit me to ask a question

Why are so many yorubas in Lagos? A very large percentage of the yoruba populace is resident in lagos, please why Lagos in the southwest? Why not Ilorin or Abeokuta? Am not saying that those places dont have strong yoruba populations but why does Lagos attract the most number of yorubas?

Which kind question is this for God sake. Even a kindergarten student will slap you for this kind question. Are you this daft? Asking the owners of a land why they are many there. Why don't you go and ask South Africans why they are so many in juhanesbourg, why don't you go and ask Indians why they are so many in Mumbai, why not ask Italians why they are many in Milan or Germans why they are many in Munich. So what nwazurike said about you people is very apt, so also nwosu.

Ikechuob:
Afonja get thee behind me demon!!!

Everyone knows that, even God himself knows that those people from North are the reason Nigeria is still backward and drawing backward. Mr Bill Gates statement also confirmed it.

22nd March, 2018

FG SHOULD NEGOTIATE RELEASE OF CHRISTIAN GIRL

 

Boko Haram insurgents yesterday returned 104 out of the 110 girls abducted on 19thFebruary, 2018. Five of them had reportedly died while one, Leah Sherubu, was not released. According to Khadija Grema, one of the freed girls, Leah was not released because she is a Christian and she refused to put on hijab or convert.

 

 

The Muslim Rights Concern (MURIC) condemns Boko Haram’s attempt to compel Leah to use hijab. Equally reprehensible is the attempt to force her to convert to Islam.

 

 

We reiterate for the umpteenth time that Boko Haram’s doctrine is heretical and its methods stand in contradistinction to those of pristine Islam. The Glorious Qur’an asserts that there is no compulsion in Islam (2:256). It says Allah himself could have made the whole mankind Muslims if He had wished (11:118). It forbids forceful conversion or punishment of non-Muslims by Muslims and limits the role of Muslims to admonitions alone (lasta alayhinm bimusaytirin 88: 21 – 24). Furthermore, it declares that each shall have the right to follow his or her religion (lakunm diinukunm wa liya diin 109:1 – 6).

 

 

Once again we reject Boko Haram as an Islamic group. We urge the leadership and members of the group to re-examine its ideological base. Leah Sherubu must be set free because the basis for holding her after setting her schoolmates free is faulty and unIslamic.

 

 

We invite the Federal Government (FG) to widen the scope of dialogue with Boko Haram by incorporating doctrinal issues. Islamic scholars should be involved in such discussions with the insurgents. This process is sine qua non for the deradicalisation of Boko Haram. Military defeat of Boko Haram alone amounts to a pyrrhic victory without ideological re-engineering.

 

 

We charge (FG) to go back to the negotiation table in order to secure the release of the only Christian girl among the Dapchi girls who is being held back by the insurgents. Nigerians have been united in their prayers for the release of the Dapchi girls. FG should note that Boko Haram is not as daft as many people think. By withholding the Christian girl, they seek to divide Nigerians once again along religious lines.

 

 

MURIC expresses solidarity with the parents of Leah Sherubu, the Christian girl in captivity. Our hearts are heavy with grief over her plight. We salute her courage. Shame on Boko Haram for oppressing a lone, vulnerable and helpless girl. Shame on all those who suppress freedom of worship. We appeal to Nigerians to invoke special prayers in the mosques and churches for this Christian girl who had the courage to stare her oppressors in the face. We should also continue to pray for the remaining Chibok girls.

 

 

As we round up, we repeat our exhortation to the Nigerian authorities: to set Leah Sherubu free is a task that must be done.

Director,
