This unbridled tribe again.

After God had blessed them, then he put a curse on their mouth.

Let's hope he will not change mouth if his preferred candidate loses.

Beremx:
10k multiplied by 403 foolish suffering and smiling people no be small money. God bless the only PDP voter who refused to be bribed

Many of you are a threat to democracy.

You only believe that your own preferred candidate must win.

Little wonder you Obidient fanatics are called fascists and you all live up to the name.

Yet, your Obi keep getting disgraced everywhere he ventures to with his politics of opportunism.

Elluu peee lule piii.

BreconHills:
You mean none comes from Lagos Island?

What many do not know is that the so-called owners of Lagos are the returned slaves. However many of these people were not captured and slave traded from Lagos and are not Indigenous to Lagos. Let me give you one example.

You cannot be more Lagosian than the McGregor family. However, one of this family's members is now a first-class Oba in Ilawo in Ogun state. What happened? He traced his ancestry back to where his ancestors lived before being captured and given anglicized names. Another example is Sarah Forbes Bonetta, who was presented to Queen Victoria after her capture and eventually adopted as her Goddaughter. But her maiden name before capture was Aina and she was originally from Egbado and not Lagos.

The indigenous dwellers of Lagos are the Aworis.

Finally, Lagos state itself was created by adding parts of the Western region including Ikeja, Maryland, etc to the former Lagos Colony. So the idea that Yorubas must be islanders to be indigenous is incorrect.

The National Archives are there for anyone who wants to do a deeper analysis of the subject. Looking through the records it can be seen that the number of Yorubas who can claim Lagos as indigene is much wider than the returnee slaves who it must be said are also entitled to claim Lagos ( even if not originally from there) by reason of Yoruba antiquity.

If we are looking at Lagos Island (Isale Eko), or the totality of Lagos (Eko) with appendages like Obalende, Ikoyi, Victoria Island, Apapa, Oyingbo, Ebute Metta, etc, then even the Yoruba slave returnees from outside Africa or camped in Sierra Leone, still met native Yorubas with native names.

So those returnees are only a discussion as later citizens of the parts of Lagos that they settled in.

It would be wrong to think an English, Portuguese or Spanish surname confer any originality to Lagos origin of the bearer. Rather it confirms their status as later indigenes of Lagos(Eko), behind the originality of the Awori native indigenes and the aristocratic Benin-Yoruba ruling class of Lagos (Eko).

The broader Lagos State as you rightly said, was part of Western region, and dominated by Ijebu, same Awori, Egba, and the non-Yoruba Egun tribe.

The Yoruba subgroups in Lagos State plus the non-Yoruba Egun, are the very same tribal constituent of Ogun state.

Awori, Ijebu, Egba, Egun.

Only Egbado (Yewa) is native to Ogun State and not native to Lagos State. But I won't count it out too.

And so what?

Is that the preoccupation of Americans?

Or is Isreal so illegitimate that it needs a big brother to survive its continued occupation of Palestinian land?

And what exactly is the problem with the 2020 support/hosting?

A car made 25 years ago. God abeg

As in!

Poverty is a confirmed bastard.

Ok

Time to know who is in charge.

It is his American right naa.

I don't weep for a foolish civilisation.

The original schillaci.

The hero of the 1990 world cup and golden boot winner.

Rest in peace Toto Schillaci.

chrisxxx:
That is why I always tell a certain cone-shaped skull who always talks against Israel that he could be located even inside his tunnel in Oshogbo. A word they say is enough for the wise.

You only admit that Israel is itself a terror state, and validate the claims of any country to nuclear and other forms of technology that others like Israel and the USA think only they should posses.

India achieved nuclear military technology by deceit, just as Iran and North Korea are currently doing.

So why do some think they are justified to posses technology that they fear others having?

Is that not the very fundamental expression of hypocrisy?

Very true.

IOT and IIOT makes personal, family, and corporate security even more delicate.

If you supported Tinubu, Atiku, or Obi, but you are lamenting about the consequences of oil subsidy removal policy that they all supported as presidential candidates of their respective parties, then God will punish you for your hypocrisy.

22million Nigerians supported the policy. More than 90% of all the votes cast.

julaion:
obi will win and the shame will be on all ur generation

Obi only won on twitter las las.

verdade00:
Shame on idiots

what is the shame that the law is being upheld and those found to have fouled the law are made to comply?

LagosPrince:
Princeoflagos

You saw a future that did not include Tinubu wining.

Yet to your great shame, Tinubu won and was duly sworn in as President.

If he has now implemented the policy of oil subsidy removal, and free trade of currency exchange, why lament so bitterly when we all know you supported both policies as indicated by your preferred candidate advocating for those same policy implementation?

Did you not know those policies come with harsh economic consequences, regardless of who is implementing it?

9jatriot:
The best in what exactly?

The many lies they have told themselves.

Was he ever regarded as a visionary Governor who grew the economy and capacity of the state?

Did he initiate any bold policy reforms or projects that continue to serve the state to set it apart from other states in Nigeria?

This was the same Governor who was regarded as a wicked and visionless charlatan.

Keeping Anambra state funds in his own bank to generate profit for the bank and its owners.

He should be burnt alive and end his miserable existence right there and then.

No need for any case. Just torture him mercilessly to obtain information about the buyer, then waste him inside the fire.

NNPC can never achieve anything that can be considered a success.

A very useless entity.

favor914:
You Eyepobian Wailers no just get joy @ all.

The most Ungrateful Peasants.

They have vowed to be forever ingrates and forever victims.

Crafteck1:
Una get problem, he was ok with demolition of illegal structures, hes wasnt ilegal

Exactly!

Solmax:
Don't support wickedness just because it not done to you.
May the 'Positive' impact of Balablu actions reach everyone of his supporters in due course.

How did he support wickedness?

He supported that people should not be allowed to block water channels for the benefit of everyone.

And in his own lamentations, he cited that he did his due diligence about the property that was destroyed despite having the right documents and not illegally obstructing anything of benefit to the general public.

So I ask again, how is a sensible Nigerian like that supporting wickedness?

Timoleon:
Just point him in the right direction. No one knows it all.

Truly no one does.

That is why I stimulated his brain with those questions to realise he was wrong to make such claims.

DevilsEqual:


This is one of the reasons why i respect Egypt, Ethipia, Syria and Greece. They've managed to maintain the name and the territory from then to now

Egypt was never conquered at any point despite threatning expansive wars from Greece and Mongollia

Shame on Babylon and Assyria that werent strong enough to resist those world powers

The territories once occupied by Assyria and Babylonia are part of modern-day Iraq, Syria, Turkey, and Iran.

You say Egypt was never conquered yet it was ruled by the Greek Ptolemy dynasty?

Egypt was never conquered, yet its inhabitants have changed from all sorts to the current Arab inhabitants?

Nothing out of place with the demand.

But Dangote Refinery should ensure they monitor them 24/7, while they should also verifiy all the process quality at the refinery.

gaby:
Dunderhead..

Exactly what you are.

givedemwotowoto:
Is it the OVH which belonged to Bul@ba’s family that NNPC acquired and renamed to NNPC Retail, then Bul@ba made NNPC to hand over the same NNPC Retail to the same OVH company they already acquired and renamed?

Then public outcry made them reverse the fraud again?

Make it make sense!

They already clarified the misinformation many of you were fed with by those who know how to keep you ignorant and misinformed.

Your particular problem is that nothing can make sense to you.

gaby:
It looks all set to take have them use our commonwealth to attempt to revive any of the moribund refineries for themselves and also to strangulate the Dangote Refinery. Or better still, continue to subsidize OVH disguising as NNPC limited's petroleum imports from our commonwealth to sell at a price Dangote can't compete with.

You should be specially ashamed of yourself and your anarchy mindset.

NNPC came out with the facts to clarify their actual ownership of OVH that no longer had Oando as an interested party of the OVH it previously identified as the O.

Yet you were spewing rubbish days ago on this forum.

Now that NNPC has fully taken over OVH and effected a rename as was clarified, you remain stuck in your deliberate ignorance.
