You answered your own question, he enjoys division, sounds traibalistic from some of his threads if you ask me.

@alj harem: Do what you like. Just don't burn down Yoruba property in Abuja. If by mistake any of my own property is damaged in any way. . .

i do not care about yorubas, so long as they do not get in the way

What is wrong with this harem of a man grin grin grin


No offense, but he seems to be a lil  embarassed embarassed embarassedfrom all his post on some threads I've seen.

no no no

i enjoy unity but i will be willing to unite once the southerners see us as brothers but not as backward people

i have always asked myself, what make southern nigeria forward but still no answer tongue tongue

me sound tribalistic  far from it

i love igbo, yoruba and every other group in nigeria

i am half igbo half kanuri, why will i hate any southerner


i love my nigeria people and southerner,.,.,., but the question is do they love me ? NO they don't

so why will i say let there be an igbo governor in a northern state when he has not gone to his state and develop it not to talk of mine.

lets be realistic here, let everyone stay at there tent

alj harem:

dapo, it is not about loving blood,.,. no no no far from it

it is about principles,

i mean if you yorubas can take it, we northerners will not accept it

fact!!!!!!!

if you yorubas want an igbo or northern governor in your states, that is fine by me and most northerners

but in a northern state you can not bring meritocracy to us and expect us to say yes, we are one nigeria and you can rule us,.,. NO

until southerns love us then there will be no southern ruler in the north,., at least until the whole nigeria accept sharia law

we northerners are not stu.pid like the yorubas that accepted eze ndigbo,., no no no

we know igbos do not like us but want to rule us,.,.,. undecided we can see right through them like clear oil

wait and see tongue



You don dey madt abi?

When it is suggested that a southerner rules over a good for nothing desert land, with people who have brains just as empty as their lands; it should be a privilege.
The south will never love you and one day, my generation will witness redemption from having to be identified alongside like you.
May the hole that birth you be full forever with sharia and it's demons.
Fool.

who said anything about fight here undecided

all i am saying is that your so called no-mans-land has men in them that are indigenous to the your no-mans-land

because you are not a proper lagosian so i will not listen to you

you have no right,,.,. i repeat no right to tell any state you are not indigenous to, to accept another candidate just because a small town in the state (lagos island) was the formal captital.

Are you an indigene of Lagos state?

If not, how many generations of your family has lived in Lagos?

Please be honest

Just answer the questions.

BTW, the people of Lagos, both indigenes and recent settlers alike, are satisfied with the performance of their current governor.

I'm not trying to be a d1ck. . . but it isn't like people all over West Africa moving en masse to Abia (or any state in that area.)

However, they are moving to Lagos in large #s.

So the relative value of the two positions isn't quite the same.

Can you imaging most people claiming LAGOS do not actually believe in ONE NIGERIA .

So if you are going to your BIAFRA or AREWA NATION tomorrow, You will drag LAGOS along . grin grin grin grin grin grin grin

Because the LATINOS, ASIANS AND JEWS are in US, does not mean they can own the US.

Lagos is geographical located within the south-west YORUBA dominant region of Nigeria,

So it belongs to the YORUBA PEOPLE and not the IGBO and HAUSA BUSINESS MEN.

IT IS CALLED GEO-POLITICS.

Only a grossly ignorant person will label Dangote a monopolist. There is no business Dangote operates that they are a monopoly. Think before you malign the man.

All in all, I think he will make fine governor should he decide to run.

Good question, Who owns America then

Better yet, when Latino American decides to run for president, ahh that's too big o, I mean Governor or Mayor of DC, they should tell him no abi? As a matter of fact, there was a black latino man who ran against Vincent Gray in the prior elections, Did he run for the office, why not. How many votes did he have, me know he was on the bottom of the list but at least he ran for the position

Lagos should be split like Jerusalem, Brussel, Belgrade and any other city that is split along ethnic lines. I don't care if it is geopolitics. Many Igbos claim Lagos, so they have a right to partition Lagos amongst the Igbo, Yoruba, Hausa and any other ethnicity that has a rightful claim.

With this sort of statement, you would only attarct violence to the unknowing igbos in Lagos.

Oh vey.

And that is exactly why nobody non-Yoruba will ever be governor in Lagos.

I'm glad you said it, so others here can understand how people think.

Well Yorubas did steal it from the rightful owners who were the Bini people. Now if more Igbos move to Lagos, and Lagos, becomes a majority Igbo town. Who will be the owners then?  grin

So I hope more Igbos move to Lagos. Reproduce and create more Igbos. I even invite Hausa to come to Lagos. The more the merrier. Let us not stop there and include Ghanaians. Lagos is for everyone!

Lagos paid tribute to the Benin Empire. . . but was first inhabited by Awori.

On a very serious note, the "Lagos is for everyone" attitude will only bring about bloodshed. It isn't for everyone. If you are serious with that statement, then I think you truly want violence.

Lagos would not what it is, if it wasn't made the capital of the Southern protectorate. All Southern Nigerians have a claim to Lagos. The British built up Lagos for their own purposes and some of you Yoruba think you can benefit from that. No!

Even though Yorubas did help with the building of Lagos with the cocoa proceeds, Igboland's palm oil plantations also helped with the foundations of Lagos.

Niger Deltan oil also added to infrastructure during the 70s and 80s.

Lagos is for everyone! Get used to it. That will be my mantra!

I would claim Abuja, but it serves no strategic or economic purpose.

JOKER! Please, when you go to Lagos (Isale Eko, Badagry, Epe, Idumota, Ebute-meta etc), chat this crap to an Awori man and please live to tell his reaction. Thank you.

For me, Lagos is a slum. I am just a provincial man from Abia. Now I would say that Port Harcourt belongs to the Igbo though. No doubt about that, because I will be on familiar terrain.

Let an Igbo boy who was raised in Lagos say that. I know many Igbos feel that way about Lagos.

Even Port Harcourt, you should go to the Okrika part of PH belongs to everyone (or Igbo.)

Back your bold talk up with action. . . if you dare.

Okrika people are mixed with Igbo. They will know I have 30+ million people on my side. You have to understand the East. The East is the Igbos backyard. We have never been pushed around by a minority.

BTW, I can always ask for from my Ibibio brethren as well. There is a beauty in being half Ibibio.

Port Harcourt (Iguocha) will remain in Igbo hands.
