zimoni:
What a masterpiece.

You've said it all.
Let me add to that.
We mustnt relent in exposing these yellow creature from the SE.
I meant, those animalistic creature by nature.
Ye ye dey smell. grin



And i quote jare:



Before I finish this essay I will examine an absurd claim that the igbo often make which reflects an inferiority complex, a deep case self-delusion and which borders on the sociopathic. Wherever they settle they often boast that they control all the money that is there and that they have more businesses than anyone else. They often suggest that they have more business acumen and that they are more successful at business than any other tribe in Nigeria yet this is not true.

These strange stories that Igbos are more industrious than the Yoruba people, where do they come from? Is it because Yoruba people think big and never settle for profits from petty trading? The Igbos have not excelled more than Yoruba people in any kind of business at an advanced level, with the exception of the long haul coach and bus business. In the transportation business generally how many igbo people own the largest private airport on the African continent like Wale Babalakin. Tell me the Igbos that are mega industrialists like Folawiyo, Okoya, Adedoyin, Akindele and Awosika. Of the 10 leading banks in Nigeria, 8 of them used to have yoruba people as shareholders with the controlling interest, until Sanusi Lamido Sanusi launched his campaign. Today, four are still owned by Yoruba people and only one by an Igbo. Telecoms, one Ijebu businessman built a massive telecoms company single handedly. No Igbo man can boast of such. The first four leading oil distributors are Yoruba. Of the 10 leading Nigerian businessmen, 6 are Yoruba. The highest indigenous employers of labour are Yoruba people. Look at all the companies in Ikeja- they were all invited by the Western Region Government in the First Republic. If Igbos leave Lagos today, these companies will still hold high in their elegant skyscrapers. Igbos can’t hold Lagos or anywhere in the country hostage. The stereotype claim is that the Yoruba are the agberos of Lagos but you will be surprised to know that many Igbos in Lagos are actively involved in the transport business, some of them also play omo oni le with their Yoruba friends and some of them are street beggars as well. They would have denied this if Fashola had not deported them.

Many Igbo people are on the payroll of Yoruba businessmen. If you go to their region, you will see GTB, Oando, FCMB, GLO, Con Oil, Nicon Insurance, Sahara Oil, Bicourtney all owned by Yorubas. How many Igbo companies provide mass employment in comparison? If you take away all the companies owned by Yoruba businessmen what is left? The truth, hurtful as it can be, is that the leading industrialists and entrepreneurs are Yoruba people and they built Lagos with their mega business skills. This was what attracted Igbos- the tribe of wanderers and gypsys. Igbos cannot even boast of business skills when they speak with successful businessmen in the Midwest. The Midwest can boast of companies like Zenith bank, UBA, Ibru and co. and Etisalat, They can boast of Arik Air and Aerocontractors. A man from the Midwest by the name of Festus Okotie Eboh tackled your most respected Nnamdi Azikiwe and shook his power-base as the financier of the NCNC party. I don’t share the view that Igbos have superior business skills. The business men many of us admire are entrepreneurs like Wale Tinubu, Fola Adeola, Segun Agbaje, Subonmi Balogun, Kayode Odukoya, Deinde Fernandez, Tope Sonubi, Tunde Fagbemi, Kase Lawal, Harry Akande and Mike Adenuga and not the glorified petty traders and trouble makers. What the Igbos are doing is psychological warfare. If their lies are not checked and set straight they will have a negative effect on the psyche of future generations of the Yoruba. A lot of blacks in America are suffering from the lies white historians have perpetrated. For a long time blacks were made to feel inferior to their white counterparts. We can not allow the Igbos to continue with their lies against the Yorubas unabated. We have a responsibility as patriotic Yorubas to set the record straight. If it means being tagged a tribalist, that is fine. -Destructive Ways of the Ig

Please can you stop your recent comments on my Facebook write up. You can do that on your own facebook page please. I really don't like your comments. Thank you.

Above was his response after I told him little bit about Nigeria history which got him upset and this is a person that has been attacking the fingers that fed him.

Below was my response to him

I have nothing to do with your Timeline as long as you leave Yoruba issue out of your timeline. I think I have every right to defend my Nation anywhere either on social platform or offline.

I have got no issue with you; I am only addressing your wrong posts like every other fora.

However, if you are comfortable with my response, you could ask Facebook to block me off your timeline and that would prevent me from reading and responding to write ups.

Thanks and God bless.
Yeeboo are animalistic by nature.
You need not bother yourself its in their gene.

well my brother from another Tribe. We are never agst ur presene in Lagos but u guys have been allow yourself to be used in political field by too brothers. U guys are just a fool. U have just cotested a loss nd loss competition. U shd just have stay neutral vote the candidate of ur choice after all none of them is an Ndigbo.infact I tink u guys shld have matured more than what u were in 1967 But u just prove me wrong with ur foolishness. Come to think of it do u tink if JK has won he wld have given u more priority or more freedom that u ve had in Lagos. Well u guys have over stayed but as Yoruba are peaceful no fight or hard feelings but be ready for a new Tax system on ur fake goods u bring and sell in Lagos or just go back to ur fatherland.
I think i'm learning here as well.
Now talking about fake goods,counterfeit goods et al that Igbo engage and or are into.
Alaba,counterfeit drugs and what have you...
I foresee those alaba,under bridge boys biz going down,i foresee them fleeing lagos and running out of biz.

u know am not as stupid and foolish and unmannered and uncultured as a yoloba man, if cursing is in ur genes because probably d moment u were born ur mother placed a curse in u, it's not d same as mine... if I apologize to her its because I went tru her posts I don't see her as a tribalist..so I don't think she deserves such harsh words I used on her.
What an irony,yeeboo dude is talking about mannarism and unmannerism ?

Only few portion of lagos belongs to both egun and tapa, mind you, these groub are part of yoruba. Cos they speak yoruba as well.

What u clowns dont understand is EKO is lagos island, that was where the british establish trading post . Other areas like Epe , ikorodu, ojo, mushin, agege etc where never penetrated by british. Those places are 100% ancestral homes of ppl

Enugu means on hilltop.

Anambra means large land.

aba means enter. for example anam aba na ulo. Which means i am entering the house.

Imo means everyone. (we say something like this- ma nta. ma imo which is like saying every tom and dick or everyone).

Thats for my side of igbo. to some other igbo villages they may have more meanings for the words too
Exactly, these states were named but were they created for yeboo in the first place ,were they?
Now, if thats the case should these states now be refer to as no man's land.

All i know is without Ibos, Lagos will not develop. Look at the important fields of interest they are well known for which developed lagos ;

Prostitution, selling of fake video game discs, fake cds and dvds, fake drugs, peddling of hard drugs, piracy, selling of gala & plantain chips on the highway, selling of okrika clothing items, selling fake vehicle spare parts, importing substandard china goods, importing and exporting aba made clones etc.

This activities are very vital to the economical success of Lagos.

We cannot do without them

They are very vital to us . Pls oba Akiolu, don't kill them for us. We also love their girls with their flat bald heads, moustache, yam legs, and hairy limbs
Haaa yeee grin

Please guys, there is no need to insult Igbos over this thread.

This thread has nothing to do with Igbos.

This thread is just to prove that no tribe can claim Lagos....and that even the Oba of Lagos who claims to own Lagos is from Benin Lineage. Even "Eko" is a Benin word.

This is not just my view, but the view of Lagos State Government.
Could you please tell us the meaning of enugu,anambra,aba,imo in Igbo language?

Every country,nation or highland was once a no-man's -land.

Enugu wasnt created for Igbo, anambra wasnt created for Igbo, Aba wasnt created for Igbo.

Every tribe ,country migrated to where they inhabited or should i say, inherited?
Anyway ,its quite fortunate that , ikoyi people,egba people,egun people,tapa people,ejebu people et al were fortunate tribes that inherited what we know today as LAGOS.
Well, i might have to agree with the OP ,if s/he will agree with me that SE was once a no-mans-land and still remain so.

Every tribe,nation,country was once a migrant no place or country was created for any tribe and that include the 'SE. OP ,will/do you agree with me that the whole of SE is a no-man's-land?
