I am Yoruba and the truth is, No particular tribe can lay claim to Lagos.

Even amongst us, we are still dragging who owns Lagos.


You are not Yoruba.

Yoruba Can lay claim to it and they deserve to be respected for being the first person to dwell in Lagos, if you see no offense in other tribe claiming the Land your ancestor first dwell in is a no man's Land, then you are not Yoruba. Do you know the intention of Igbo claiming Lagos is no man's Land? it is because they want to dominate and control Lagos, if you see nothing wrong in that then you are just a Coward ! what we your future generation say when a foreigner start controling them and pushing them around? they will curse you in your grave for allowing that to happen, wake up and don't be a fool
The Benin Empire long reigned over all this lands called Lagos stretching as far as Modern day Benin Republic before they were toppled by the British Empire finally in 1897. Lagos has a mixed history.. Benins and Aworis are likely the earliest settlers and shortly later after a large influx of Yorubas from surrounding areas.

Thugs and Urchins is a necessary evil and an assets to us, or else this people will never Know their place in our Land, Imagine Igbo calling our Land a No man's Land, tell me where they can do it in Nigeria other than Yoruba Land, can they do it with Hausa and Fulani? If they don't want Chaos they have to know their place in Yoruba Land.

Respect us on our soil, simple. You said Lagos is no man's land, now prove it. Prove to us that Lagos belongs to Igbos. Una go hear weeen. You will start paying achool fees at Lagos Public Schools. Lagos Public Hospitals will now charge Igbos more. Igbos will pay higher Land Use Charges. If LASTMA holds, an Igboman"s vehicle, just go and buy another. Ladipo spare parts market will be closed very soon. Also international trade fair market and Alaba electronics market will be closed. You cannot live in my house and be plotting my down fall.

But my future generation that will live in Lagos will Curse me for letting a Foreigner take the Land up and for letting a Foreigner control them, that's the truth and that's a fact. No one can allow it anywhere in the world unless you are a weakling and Coward, people will never agree that you only want to be peaceful they will say it is because you are a Coward! and it is better to die brave than to die a Coward! no one we respect your generation and no one we ever take your generation serious. The intentions of Igbo ranting Lagos is no man's Land is because they want to dominate it and control it, don't be a fool wise up

Hmmm..... Lie
I'm currently in Oshodi and nothing of such is happening. I've passed through Bolade, Brown, Oshodi Road and currently in Arena Market and I can boldly tell you that nothing like that here.

If you look at the video you will see that everybody is minding his business no traces fighting or panic. The blogger just want to say something.

For pictures I've moved away from that side but this is Church street in Oshodi.


Oga this is church street by local government, far from boladale

I've wanted to stay away from this Igbo-Yoruba issue again, but I've been seeing some narratives that keep making my blood boils.

And the recent one has to do with how Igbos are 'taking over our lands'. And this is where I lost it.

Look, if you are of the opinion that Igbos are taking over your lands, whatever that means, I want to categorically call you a fool, and I don't care if your feelings are hurt.

I mean what the actual Bleep?!

One, whose lands exactly are they taking over? The ones you inherited or what? The ones you left undeveloped or another one? The ones you sold them at inflated rate or which one? Abeg shift base!

Instead of complaining about their encroachment, why not develop some balls and go and take over their lands as well? Why not offer them ludicrous amount of money for a plot of land and see if they won't sell? Why not leave your families and kin behind and go to a land you know absolutely nobody and settle their? Why not leave your comfort zone that you are not developing and not progressing in and settle down somewhere and grow?

I keep defending my race that we are not cowards, but when I look at this critically, we really are. We have no mind and balls to settle anywhere else because obviously, everyone is dangerous. We can't live in the North or the East because everyone except us is dangerous. I don't want to insult those who have lost lives and properties in intertribal wars in both areas of the country, but we need to peel our eyes back and see properly.

We are just scared. Yes, scared. Myself inclusive.

Scared of being adventurous. Scared of being away from our people. Scared of losing and starting again. Scared of competition. Scared of everything that other major tribes ain't scared of.

Two years ago, I went to a part of my state that I've never been to before. I never even knew the place existed. Guess who had the only mini market in that village? Yeah damn right. An Igbo boy. Not a man. A boy. He sells everything they want. I was amazed. I spent close to 30 minutes interrogating him. He was barely 20years old. Yes, I was scared for him.

And that's how it is in the whole country. The Igbos remain the only tribe in the country that are never afraid of going to new places to establish. If they fail in a business, they start another one. I keep seeing them everyday in my town, trying selling something new every time. Trying to make it despite the obvious hostility around them. Most of us who are complaining about them would rather buy from them than the Yorubas.

They keep going to places to create new things, and all we do is beef them. The first major supermarket in Ado-Ekiti, Okoli, was from an Igbo man. The current trending one, NAO Supermarket, is owned by an Igbo. The entire bank road of Ado-Ekiti was bought by an Igbo man in the late 80s and 90s, and he has been selling to all the banks in that areas since then.

And what are we busy doing? Shitting in our pants shouting "They are taking over our lands". Hehehehehehehehe!!! Fada Lawd! Our entire computer villages are littered with them. They move out and own shit! We...? We just sit our asses down and complain about how the money they use in buying all these are blood and ritual money! Hehehehehehehehe!!! Really?! A Yoruba man calling an Igbo man a ritualist! Fada Lawd!

Even the Northerners are setting up Shasha markets all around us, and where the heck are we and what are we doing in their own states? Nothing.

Let's grow some balls. No one will 'eat' us in Igbo lands. I served in the interiors of Anambra, precisely in Akpo in Aguata Local Government, in a community school inside the bush there. I trek daily inside that Bush for a whole bloody year, and no one ate me or used me for money. They gave me foods, they offered their daughters to me in marriage. They wanted me to settle among them. I know those who cried when I was leaving. I know those of my colleagues that settled there. I know of many Yorubas that established there and are making it, dammit!

#Sigh. I've never been angry like this in a long while, and now I'm exhausted. ����. Let's treat each others like humans first. Let's remove this tribal labelling. Rwandan has done it and is moving forward. Even Nigerians feel more at home in South Africa, the xenophobic country, more than they would feel with other tribes in Nigeria.

And if we feel all these aren't possible, then let's fucking part ways and establish our own separate kingdoms. But like my mum said "Take away the Igbos and see your community become empty".

Enough said!

Are you freaking retar.ded? Did I complain to you that anyone is taking over my land? You wrote all this drive to counter what I didn't say?

They move out and own shit! We...? We just sit our asses down and complain about how the money they use in buying all these are blood and ritual money! Hehehehehehehehe!!! Really?! A Yoruba man calling an Igbo man a ritualist! Fada Lawd!

Even the Northerners are setting up Shasha markets all around us, and where the heck are we and what are we doing in their own states? Nothing.

Let's grow some balls. No one will 'eat' us in Igbo lands. I served in the interiors of Anambra, precisely in Akpo in Aguata Local Government, in a community school inside the bush there. I trek daily inside that Bush for a whole bloody year, and no one ate me or used me for money. They gave me foods, they offered their daughters to me in marriage. They wanted me to settle among them. I know those who cried when I was leaving. I know those of my colleagues that settled there. I know of many Yorubas that established there and are making it, dammit!

#Sigh. I've never been angry like this in a long while, and now I'm exhausted. ����. Let's treat each others like humans first. Let's remove this tribal labelling. Rwandan has done it and is moving forward. Even Nigerians feel more at home in South Africa, the xenophobic country, more than they would feel with other tribes in Nigeria.

And if we feel all these aren't possible, then let's fucking part ways and establish our own separate kingdoms. But like my mum said "Take away the Igbos and see your community become empty".

Enough said!

You are not a Yoruba man obviously, Oyo state alone is bigger than the Entire South East why should we leave our Large Expanse of Land and go to other region when we can contribute our quota to develop our region? You are not a Yoruba, if our region was a country would you be trooping out to Neighbouring Country just because you think you need to take some risks? They Keep trooping out of their region and that's the reason why most of their places are like Villages, bushes and Ghost town. South West alone is 2 times of Entire South East and it is not yet fully developed going to other region when there is nothing you can do there that you can't do in your Region is stupidity and unpatriotic forget about stupid Risks. Yoruba are still the most successful tribe in Nigeria
