Rotfl!!!

I just love ma Yoruba brethren . They scream more than frightened children

And they also die several times before the real death..!

Alright children, this is how its going to be.

When (not if) a suicide bomber gets through, comport yourselves like the White-men which Niraland is all about you being. Remember that, year in year out, you guys post things on Niraland about how terrible Nigeria is and how barbaric Nigerians are compared to Americans,British etc. Well, if Bokoharam bombers get through, comport yourselves like the white men you all so admire.

First of all, let the Army and police do their work, do not tie bush to your heads while brandishing machetes and crying woah, woah like savages.

Help the wounded if you can and comfort the traumatized if you are not more traumatized than them.

Those of you far from vicinity of incident, please go about your business or return home, do not make your way to vicinity of bombing because you will impede police,Medics and Army work and more bombs (sucker bombs) may go off and harm you.

Finally, days after the bombings, do not go attacking Hauser,Igbo, Chadian, Nigeriens, Malians or anybody out of anger or tribal machismo.Instead, put pressure on security officials to be more efficient etc, organize watch groups and organize ways in which lagosians can help the security services prevent more bombings.

Look after yourselves and your fellow Nigerians because it is only in working together can you defeat these terrorists.

ok

You harsh ooo,after quoting that long piece,all you could pen down was "ok"

Wsdm: And the yoruba in the North will be moving freely? This is exactly what Jonathan is planning; since the yorubas and the hausas are mainly the people planning to boot him out of power, hit their headS together and set the rigging machine in motion come 2015. IN 2011 election it was the religious card that played out and in 2015 it is most likely the ethnic card. A case study ; THE MOTOR PARK BOMBING IN KANO TO TURN THE IGBOS AGAINST THE NORTH AND NOW THE FOILED BOMBING IN LAGOS TO TURN THE YORUBAS AGAINST THE NORTH. MAY GOD SAVE US FROM THE EVIL MECHANIZATION OF OUR ENEMIES.

it's a lie! All terrorist are muslem. So its same GEJ that's bombing other Muslim world including Afghanistan?

Litmus: Alright children, this is how its going to be.

After each bomb is dropped, log onto nairaland and blame Ojukwu and Achebe for detonating the bombs.

In 2002 my entire street went up in arms the day the Aboki tried to retaliate, after the OPC had destroyed them at Oko-Oba abbatoir.

The marauding aboki turned back.

Go to new oko-oba and ask, the environment stank for days with the number of Aboki corpses littered.

We Yoruba are proud and fearsome warriors, we do not runaway in our wives blouses when attacked.

We get busy.

SERIOUSLY, BECAUSE LAST TIME I CHECKED, Yorubas DON'T FIGHTS WARS... UR ANCESTORS DO THAT ON YOUR BEHALF. .

seunfly: The house of thieves has nothing good to offer Nigerians from this plenary other than to find another way to tussle power with the presidency by recomending another sack. Well the way i see, it will be police boss and that is not bad afterall they are supposed to be overhaul.

Lagos is very vital to nigeria economy.if BH succeed it will definitely affect the yorubas,igbos and hausa.the security chiefs should talk 2 GEJ to seek help from other countries like america and britain.

Lagos is very vital to nigeria economy.if BH succeed it will definitely affect the yorubas,igbos and hausa.the security chiefs should talk 2 GEJ to seek help from other countries like america and britain beçause they cannot handle the issue of BH

God be praised that they did not succeed.their target would have been the big churches with large congregation.Our God is not sleeping and the prayer of Lagosians will continue to expose these agents of death.I had expected the state government to sensitise the populace on the need for vigilance.The chief culprit arrested is a chadian and we have many of these foreigners in Lagos doing security jobs.The hausas in idi araba, alaba etc needed to be warned not to habour these idiots cos the consequences would be better imagined.The Lord will continue to protect us.

Bombing south west by boko haram is a matter of time since they have people that share the same ideology with them in south west.

Thank God that they did not succeed. I'm pretty sure that they were planning to hit a church during Easter. We should all be vigilant while attending church services this Easter season.

Please people shouldn't laugh over this matter. I saw dead bodies on Lagos streets in 1999 and 2003. The dead are usually innocent security gaurds, mai-shai, mai-ruwa and petty traders. It's really not a pretty sight.

These heebo haters cant stop quoting me...despite the fact that they are the number 1 target for abokis worldwide...

They get blown up twice a week by the shoeshiners, yet they are attacking me for saying the truth.

I repeat...Yoruba don't runaway dressed in drag...no lipstick, no cross-dressing...

We get busy

Abbey2sam:

You're a fool for such comment,, so becuz the northerners have been bombing their selves,and now they are threatening the west now the gov'ment should not do anything about it..
Goat

Abbey pls leave d idiot alone, its always making of noise dat they are meant for.
Abokis tried such in my home town in Sagamu and the outcome is d massacre of Almajeeris in dia dozens!!!dats why they nicknamed Sagam" Ilu apasun" meaning "The town of kill and burn"!!! We are not an empty barrels like all these "Oju-iku" people.

Orikinla:

But millions will be caught napping.

When I got the tip off, most people on Nairaland thought I was joking until the Daily Sun made the screaming cover headline BOKO HARAM ENTER LAGOS.
I am only feeling sorry for the poor and defenceless masses.
God has already given my family maximum security home and abroad.

The righteous one like us has nothing to fear.
It is well inside well.

It has been a harrowing time in Nigeria ’s commercial capital as clashes between OPC and Hausa in Lagos leave 100 dead, 460 injured and countless refugees

By Felix Umoru

THERE WERE NO SIGNS OF IMPENDING CALAMity that fateful morning of February 2 when,Juliet Sunday, mother of three and staff of Lagos Univer-sity Teaching Hospital, LUTH, left to visit her relations at Ketu. Like other residents at 5, Taiwo Street , Idi-Araba, she left with nothing except her handbag containing a few naira notes for transport. She hoped to return in the evening.

Sunday never returned to her house. She is now a refugee in a make-shift camp reserved for victims of last week’s communal clash in Lagos , between Hausa and members of the Oodua Peoples Congress, OPC. But she is lucky. Many of her neighbours died in a bloody battle February 2.

Sunday’s residential building, a 10-room bungalow was razed down. The death toll, so far, has been put at more than 100. Seven of the dead were policemen. More than 1,000 houses were burnt and more than 400 people sustained injuries.

There was widespread looting of goods in shops and warehouses. The clash was so bloody that Governor Bola Tinubu of Lagos State closed down primary and secondary schools in the affected areas. Armed military personnel were later deployed to control the situation. As at press time last week, the atmosphere in many parts of Lagos remained tense amidst fears of reprisal attack in some parts of the north.

The most affected areas of Lagos were Mushin and Idi-Araba with Alfa Nda Street , Ilasa, Olayinka Close, Ishaga Close, Bakare Street and Morgan Street bearing the brunt of the battle. Many houses on these streets were burnt down. A building complex comprising 20 shops located at Fagbenro Street , Idi-Araba was burnt. Most of its residents, Newswatch learnt, were Hausa. Six other houses were touched in different streets. Charred remains of human bodies and burnt tires littered the streets of Idi-Araba. A burnt human body was left very close to the gate of the Lagos State University Teaching Hospital, when Newswatch visited the scene of the violence last week.

Most residents, especially Yoruba, were still moving out of their houses to various refugee camps for fear of fresh attack. Most of the Yoruba in the Ishaga-Idi-Araba side of the area, which is heavily populated by Hausa, deserted their houses. Some of them now live temporarily with their relatives in other parts of Lagos and in refugee camps. The Hausa whose houses were burnt down are being housed by their friends and relations.

An account of the cause of the clash was given by Garba Ba’are, Sarikin Hausawa. According to him, the clash started February 2, 2002 , when a young Hausa man went to a nearby bush to ease himself. Garba told Newswatch that the said bush was very close to the Oodua Peoples Congress, OPC, secretariat at Idi-Araba. The boy was said to have been arrested by members of the OPC, who demanded for N2,500 from their victim. When he refused, he was allegedly manhandled.

The Sarikin Hausawa said, when the case was reported to him, he sent his aides on a peace mission, and that his messengers were attacked by the OPC. The violence continued for the most part of last week, spreading to CMS and Obalende in Central Lagos . There were also clashes at Onipanu, a suburb of Lagos . The Hausa told Newswatch that when the police arrived the scene of the violence, the OPC re-treated but resumed their attack when the police returned to their barracks.
Ba’are urged the federal government to enforce its ban on OPC. He said despite the federal government ban on the militia group, their nefarious activities had continued without being challenged. The Sarikin Hausawa observed that the Hausa were ready to live in harmony with the Yoruba.

The secretary to the Sarkin Hausawa, Garba Garba-Chede, told Newswatch that they identified the OPC members from the inscription OPC on their shirts and headbands. Garba-Chede urged the federal government to call community leaders for dialogue from time to time.

The baale of Idi-Araba and Mushin was said to have died several years ago. The tussle over the next baale is still on. The Yoruba community in Idi-Araba and Mushin have no baale (community leader) for now.

Taju Ayinla, an elderly Yoruba man refused to speak to Newswatch formally. But he later spoke off record, explaining that he personally had no problem with the Hausa since he lives among them. He, however, advised the OPC to lay down their arms and allow peace to reign. He said what mattered was not who started what, but for peace to reign.

The Lagos State police commissioner, Mike Okiro said last week that the situation was returning to normal and that his men were patrolling the area.

Anyim Pius Anyim, senate president, implored the law enforcement agencies to ensure that the situation at Idi-Araba did not get out of hand.

Buba Marwa, retired brigadier-general and former military governor of Lagos State , called for caution and patience of all Nigerians. He urged Nigerians to learn to live together as one. He decried the killings in Idi-Araba.

Thousands of victims who were evacuated from Idi-Araba to the Abalti barracks on Lagos mainland, were rejected by the army. Newswatch learnt that they were rejected because victims of the Ikeja Cantonment explosions which occured January 27, had already filled the space available there. The victims were later moved by soldiers in 10 lorries and buses to the Police College , Ikeja. They were registered and given food and shelter.

But the victims evacuated to LUTH were not so lucky. There has been no food and shelter for some of them yet. Josephine Bernard, a resident of Bamishile Street , Idi-Araba and other evacuated women, numbering about 10 were left to cater for themselves at the entrance of LUTH. Bernard told Newswatch: “All we need now is food and shelter since all our belongings have been burnt.” The emergency unit of LUTH and passages are already filled to capacity by the displaced residents of Idi-Araba.

Ayo Olagunju, public relations officer, LUTH, denied that casualties were being rejected by LUTH. He told Newswatch that the hospital management called off their strike February 4, to carter for victims of the Ikeja Cantonment bomb explosions. He said the hospital was open to all casualties from the Idi-Araba violence since most displaced residents were already being housed in the hospital premises.

There have been several clashes between OPC and the Hausa and other ethnic groups in Lagos since the return of democracy in 1999. These clashes have resulted in the death of several hundreds of persons.
In September 1999, eight people died when OPC members attacked workers of Apapa Wharf and Tin Can Island ports in Lagos to show their support for some Yoruba speaking members of the dock workers union who were defeated in an election.

In 1999 also at least 14 persons were reported dead when OPC members and Ijaw youths clashed in Ajegunle area of Lagos . About 120 persons lost their lives when the group clashed with Hausa traders at Mile 12 and Ketu area of Lagos in November, 1999. The OPC has also been having regular clashes with the police. Seven persons reportedly lost their lives during the OPC clash with policemen in Festac town in November 1999. At least 90 persons, two of them policemen, were killed during a clash between OPC and the police in Lagos , July 10, 2000 , while two died during a confrontation between OPC members and policemen attached to the United States Embassy in Lagos in October 2000.

Ganiyu Adams, leader of a faction of OPC was arrested by the police, August 22, 2001 . The police slammed a 23-count charge on him when he was arraigned before the Ikeja chief magistrate’s court August 24. The charges include conspiracy, arson, treason, murder, armed robbery, unlawful possession of fire-arms and ammunition, wilful destruction of property and inflicting bodily harm on his victims. He was set free.

Thompson Adewale, the secretary, Yoruba council of elders, believes OPC is useful and helpful in curbing armed robbery. He spoke to the press immediately Ganiyu was arrested in 2001.

Tinubu invited OPC in June 2001, to join forces with the state security agencies in the fight against escalating crime in Lagos . According to the governor, the security problem in Lagos had grown beyond what the present members of the police could effectively contain. He said he invited the ethnic militia because of its commendable performance in the war against crime just as he acknowledged that some members of OPC derailed, leading to the subsequent ban on the outfit.

If Lagos is bombed, then I would suggest that people mount a massive road block / check point along Lagos-Ibadab road to screen/scrutinise all travelers coming into Lagos. I am sure that would create enough tension in the country that may eventually force everybody/regions to be on self-alert / defence.

We may only know the beginning, no one knows the end of any crisis that may come up.

Is Lagos-ibadan express way the only entrance into Lagos? What about the waterways or Lagos-Abeokuta or the route through ikorodu? The truth remains that except their sponsors are located and brought to book any means of tackling boko-haram would be like pruning a hedge.

omiobo: There is fire on the mountain but no one seems to be on the run,

There's nowhere to run to except Atlantic ocean

ashlamonki: Dis pple should stop given us neither stress nor headahe abt dis boko issue,dey ll soon use it as an avenue for embezzlement,

May be you re one of them . This is biggest issue Nigeria in the modern world is facing currently . Threat to human life and u think it not an issue to be talked about regularly as it is being done now.

Y is everybdy blind,they can't see that america is behind this boko haram sect.they are planning to invade nigeria like they did in libya,afghanistan n Iraq.they need a reason to do so so they keep sponsorin n training boko haramites to be carry out acts of terror so that they will see this as a reason to send thousands of troops n set up a millitary base in Nigeria in they name of fighting terrorism.then they will start siphoning our oil to america...giving orders to our president...if goodluck refuses them,they will sponsor n support a revolt to topple his govt as they are doing to Assad in syria...can't you see what all they countries u.s has invaded since 9\11 have in common? OIL...their tactics is simple..they give you a problem(settin up boko haram) n bring d solution with troops to rule u indirectly....they u.s embassy here shud b monitored 24\7

Good point


1. What's the Bayelsa government doing with a rundown house in Ijora of all places?

2. Why is the Bayelsa government renting apartments to terrorists?

This angle is just too fishy and blaming this on BH without credible investigation sounds too hasty.

Idiatt.. You only have brain to think like that when it's black folks involved. If those bomb equipment were discovered in the US embassy or in a USAID office now, you would line up instinctively to defend oyibo and find a way to dismiss it all as ''conspiracy theory''. Dummy dum dum.

confusion247: Bombing south west by boko haram is a matter of time since they have people that share the same ideology with them in south west.

But they are hosted in lagos by Bayelsa government.

Last I checked, they have been more than enough recorded attacks and killings of Yorubas by northerner in SW and you guys haven't done anything about. There was even one that happened because of an @shawo. If una didn't do anything to the ones with no bomb and little weapon then you expect us to believe that una will do something to the ones with bomb and alot of weapons. LMFAO. You guys really know how to talk I give una that.

Now keep quiet and stop distracting people on here
