Garri the 1st:

Classic.

These folks seem to suffer from amnesia.

dayokanu:

The Babaloja ensure genuine trading is going on in the market and its not a hideout for criminals.

He ensures the sanitation of the place given the history of dirtiness associated with Ladipo traders.

He also ensures members of the public are not swindled like those people normally do and not give Ladipo a bad name for bad business practices

AMong other things

dayokanu:

You mean Ibos are like dwarfs cos the men next to fashola are like Aki and Pawpaw in height

ilugunboy: This thread is not having that heat/ spark that is normally associate with this type of thread..why are you guys wary?

donroxy: Nna eeee ..... Chineke oooo ....... ahahaha igboboy !!

Sam xiu lee: kindly spell out the oversite function babaloja do,if its collection of taxes and levies,there are people that are employed to do thay job,LIRS is there,let's stop this babloja iyaloja,park chairman nonsense or confine it in market dominated by our people.
Nigeria is a republic and they are free to carry out there businesses anywhere in the country.

2nedo: Y are u dis dumb?U make money in another man's land and u still expect the revenue to go into ur ppls pocket.Teru ba pe nile,alajobi lonbu.You are only entitle to ur claim in ur igbo state which u leave undeveloped.

Sam xiu lee: which customary law in yoruba land are you referring too? never in the history of yoruba people did I hear that babaloja and iyaloja are tax collectors..

dayokanu:

Why dont you people leave first and let Lagos turn to anything it likes

How can you like Lagos more than your hometown, Go and develop your villages

REALITY101: Show of hate, tribalism, evy and act of joblessness. Did I forget anything?

fr3do:

he is a free Nigerian citizen,he has every right not to co-operate unless it is backed up by the constitution.

Onlytruth: I shall keep advising Ndigbo to NEVER react to a provocation the way the provocateur expected. This is one weakness we have as a people and I keep seeing it repeated over and over again, with some of our people advising us to keep making the same mistake.
I cannot recall the number of times we were manipulated out of our locations in various parts of Nigeria, and all we did was to pack and go "home", when in fact we shouldn't. I insist that our smartest response should be the opposite, because maybe, just maybe our enemies will die of heart attack when they see that they failed to achieve their main objective.

The smartest Igbo response to this is for our governors to continue developing the East at the pace they are doing, and for our people to stay put (at least for now) in Lagos and such other places.
We must choose when to react -THEY MUST NEVER CHOOSE FOR US.

From the mind of a strategic thinker.

Lanceslot: To you guys telling Igbo people to leave lagos, have you ever thought of what lagos will look like if Igbo people leave?.... Think about it

ilugunboy: This thread is not having that heat/ spark that is normally associate with this type of thread..why are you guys wary?

Lanceslot: don't worry, your prayers will be answered soon and then you will know that hot water kills tortoise.

dayokanu: They would still prostrate with their flat heads

dozzybaba: His prayers will not be answered....the Igbos are not going anywhere,

Let them answer their own clarion call by declaring Odua sovereign and then go ahead and start bombing lagos back 12th century like their almajiri brothers in Illorin. Then we will leave.......and then come back with the abokis to drag them grudginly back to Liegeria.

The Abokis will be pulling them on head(at illorin), while we concentrate on their b.alls (Eko) until the parachute (agbada) wearing scratched faces refund all the money they guzzled from proceeds of palm oil, Groundnut and Crude Oil for the past 50 years, they ain't going nowhere.

To keep Liegeria one is a task that must be done. Up Up Up Liegeria.

Agbero

Umunna was born in the UK in 1978. His father Bennett, who was a Nigerian of the Igbo ethnic group died in a road accident in Nigeria in 1992.

Ejiofor was born in London's Forest Gate, to Nigerian parents who belonged to the Igbo ethnic group. His father, Arinze, was a doctor, and his mother, Obiajulu, was a pharmacist. In 1988, when Ejiofor was 11, during a family trip to Nigeria for a wedding, he and his father were driving to Lagos after the celebrations when their car was involved in a head-on crash with a lorry. His father was killed, but Ejiofor survived despite being badly injured, receiving the scars on his forehead.

IGBO-SON:


^^^All those 'jobs' you listed already have governmental agencies/bodies that carry out those tasks so try another trick!

Could you explain the 'among other things' a bit for us?

Cheers.

dayokanu:

We have police, Has that stopped people from hiring security guards, OPC and Bakassi boys to secure their properties and business?

We have Environment agencies has that stopped people from organising Abokis to clean their environment?

We have water corporation has that stopped people from digging wells, boreholes and me ruwa?
