Nndigbo: Why We MUST STOP Saying Lagos Is No Man's Land by GodIsBiafran: 9:43pm On Nov 20, 2017 |
My people lets stop saying this nonsense. Orji Kalu started this rubbish - as a political plow to distract from his abysmal failure in Abia state. If you like say this thing a million times - It does not change the reality that Yorubas run Lagos. Have you lived in Lagos? I lived there for many years, so I know what I am talking about. We need to stop all this nonsense and concentrate on building and developing the SE. All this time we have been shouting Lagos is no man's land where has it gotten us? Biko lets buy sense! If we concentrate our efforts and divert more of our resources back home, with 2 decades the SE will become the envy of not just other regions but of the entire African continent. Mods, Please take this to front page so I can have this discussion with my brothers and sisters. Thank you. 97 Likes 8 Shares |

If you igbos like keep calling lagos a no man's land, infact you can even call it a chinese or japanese land, we yorubas don't care because of the reality on ground. The micsonceptions and delusions of few among you concerning lagos ownership can not change the fact that lagos belongs to yorubas. 106 Likes 8 Shares |

MightySparrow: My problem is that it is distracting us from facing our own issues. This energy we are using to lay claim to Lagos online can be used to hold our elected officials accountable for their actions. I believe we Igbos are the most industrious tribe in Africa, however, we have to direct our energies towards the right direction. 12 Likes 1 Share |

Thank you my brother, I wonder why some of my people talk this way. What is the business of we Igbos with who owns Lagos? We can claim so far Lagos is within the Nigerian border nobody can intimidate anyone in Lagos but to say Lagos is no man's land not in contest of a hustling jungle but that no one is an indigene is a crazy statement. Let us all develop our states and leave Lagos for the Yorubas, Eguns, Binis, etc 43 Likes 5 Shares |

Its so disgusting for Igbos to say Lagos is no mans land. All i see is envy and nothing more. Whether you like it or not, Yorubas own Lagos and that fact can never change till Jesus comes back. Don't go and develop ur land be claiming rubbish 35 Likes 3 Shares |

On the contrary, I don't want Igbos to stop calling Lagos no-man's Land and I'll state my reasons. Yorubas welcomed Igbos with an open hand and returned their abandoned properties after the war. Meanwhile, Igboid groups in present-day Rivers and Bayelsa states refused to return confiscated Igbo properties. Nigerians from all ethnicities come to Lagos, live, trade, work, build and retire here. However, Igbos ignored the landowners and contributions of everyone and are selfishly but are foolishly claiming they developed Lagos. The problem some Igbos have is that they have short memories. They've forgotten that as at when the Portuguese landed in Lagos, they had not yet finished trekking from Isreal or wherever they were downloaded from. Yoruba are very welcoming and accommodating but won't tolerate nonsense. When these Igbos started this noise, we warned the liberal Yorubas but they said we were paranoid. Now, a lot of Yorubas are seeing the hate and bitterness that Igbos wish upon us and are now waking up. During the last LG elections, all LG seats in Festac, Ojo Alaba, Amuwo and other areas with large Igbo population were collected and are firmly in the hand of Yorubas. In 2019, we're collecting our seats from those Igbos representatives and HOA members. The environmental sanitation is presently political. When we're through with that, we move to other areas. By the time we ban gala and Fan yogo hawking in Lagos and the economy of a whole Igbo state crumbles cos of that, maybe you'll have sense. Let Igbos keep calling Lagos No man's land, it serves to wake up the consciousness of liberal Yorubas. Mind you, the quiet Yoruba man is the most dangerous. The revolution would not be televised. 102 Likes 10 Shares |

MightySparrow: Just as your ancestors were chased out of Isreal and your fathers were chased out of Nigeria, you flatheaded miscreants would soon be kicked out of Yorubaland. A few months ago, the Hausa Fulanis chased you ingrates out of Hausaland but your shameless fathers went on a regional begging tour to all the Northern States. 35 Likes 1 Share |

Lagos is a no man's land and the narrative is simple............. The yoruba may more in number but the no man-ness of Lagos is economically based......... Every Nigerian contributed/is contributing to the growth of Lagos, the federal government used/uses money gotten from all over the country to build Lagos the more, all ethnic group in Nigeria are scampering to Lagos in other to gain back their resources used by FG to build Lagos, Thus making Lagos A NO MANS LAND.......... If e vex una ask federal government to construct federal roads, ports and airports in other region just like it's in Lagos.............. Lagos = NO MANS LAND 18 Likes 1 Share |
