I’m a young man and know little about history and I won’t even pretend to do or conjure irrelevant and funny stories just to deceive people as some people have tried to do for a couple of weeks now. Besides Femi Fani-kayode(FFK) has fed us enough history for a lifetime.
I just think all this dust about igbos and lagos issue especially their reactions is more of a reflex and it shows very couspicously the content of their character and thoughts towards the yoruba people for years.
The igbos should realise that in the whole of Nigeria the yorubas have the most well defined history that has been cherished for ages so it can’t be an easy task to try and brain-wash or play mind games with them. This is not a re-joiner to any of the articles for or against this argument, this is just a call to critical reasoning.
1. Does Femi Fani-kayode like Chinua Achebe, Orji Uzor kalu and Peter Obi not have the right to come out in defense of his people?
2. Do the Yorubas not have the right to be vexed whenever any other tribe claim glory for developing their regions?
3. should the yorubas fold their hands and allow some visitors re-write their history to favor them and discredit the hardwork of yoruba in their own land?
4. Can’t some people just understand that it takes some level of humility to allow this Nigeria project work perfectly?
5. Can’t the igbo elders if there are any come out and make their people realise that it is total madness to come to another man’s land and claim you developed it when you can’t do the same magic in your region?
6. Can’t this people just understand that every tribe, including the Yoruba’s have feelings just as much as they do?
7. Is it not provocative and insulting for a visiting tribe to try and install a TRADITONAL ruler in another mans land after been allowed to hold various top political positions in Lagos?
If this questions can be answered with all sincerity, maybe some bitter history won’t have to repeat.
I for one knows what it feels like for your land to be called a no mans land-this is the most derogatory of all tribal insults. Its like calling a grown up man a bastard and not expecting a reaction.
I am a yoruba man from Isale-Eko Lagos but no one seems to believe me because some people, who have forgotten their homes and have no sense of history, have seized my land in their small minds. And you expect me to be quiet when I finally realise that I do infact have rights to my land and a rich history that dates over 400 years to support it.


All this igbo supremacy saga just shows how desperate this guys have always wanted to claim development of the whole country to themselves. Today it is Lagos soon it would be Abuja then Kano. What is even more shocking is how these guys descended on Femi Fani-kayode just because he took the pains to show them glaring realities. I, like most yorubas have never had anything against the igbos or any tribe at that but all these talk on social media and newspapers by even respected igbo scholars is called pushing the line.
We are Yorubas, we have every right to lay claims to what belongs to us and since we are very intelligent and educated people, we would retain these rights with our pens and our mouth respectfully for as long as it takes and we expect every other tribe to do the same.

Still thinking if Nigeria in the long term?

You're on your own sha.

The writer of this article should cool down and ask himself these questions.

Do Igbos, Yorubas, Hausas, Ijaws or any tribe in Nigeria have sovereignty over any State in this country?

Should there be different laws applicable to people of Nigeria based on ethnicity, religion or class?

Should there be discrimination when duties and taxes are levied on the inhabitants of a State based on ethnicity and when such revenues are used for development, should there be preference for indigenous people of the State?

If a Yoruba from Edo State or Ekiti will can lay claim to Lagos State without necessarily living there, why then should there be a problem when Efik man who was born and bred in Lagos State and has lived in Lagos for decades lay the same claim as the Yoruba Edolite?

The answers to these questions are the reasons for the struggle for equal right by the so-called aliens or migrants from other States in Nigeria.

Had these exclusive rights been demanded by the indigenous people of Lagos State and not a pan Yoruba tribe thing, the issue would be weighty for the fact the the Federal and State Government disposed them without adequate compensation and it would have been understandable.

Ibos will always be boastful ingrates... Nothing is gonna change that....

Go to maiduguri and tell the kanuri's that their land is no mans land or better still go to kano and tell the hausas that you developed kano. Lagos is the capital of the yoruba nation you all can go back to your thatched roof hut in your erosion ridden enclave
