And the land has been bought by outsiders. If you sell your ancestral land, you have no right to claim it. That is why you all should have kept the land instead of selling it for money. This is the way the world works. Once you sell something, you cannot have it back.

Are you even from Lagos? I mean are your ancestors from Lagos. Just because you are a Yoruba does not mean you have an ancestral claim to the land.

Thank you!

On a side note, the people of the East will not claim Lagos if the oil companies leave that city for a city in the East. Port Harcourt should be the obvious location for all these oil companies. Why have a headquarter in Lagos when it is not even the capital anymore?

Once the oil companies leave Lagos, so will the jobs leave Lagos. That is the simple truth. Everyone is welcomed to Port Harcourt though. I don't care if you are Ijaw, Igbo, Ibibio, Yoruba, Hausa etc. I want Port Harcourt to become a more cosmopolitan city.

Just as we have equal Right in Enugu and Anambra. By the way, what have you done to help the Lady from Anambra that can not Recite the National Anthem? Do something

excanny:

As much as I'm a pro-Igbo land kind of person, if Yorubas attack my people, we shall not fold our hands, we'll be forced to defend ourselves, bosom for tat.

And you cannot secede because we'll also fight you. That's what's up.

I used to side you people against my people, but I've seen that you loud-mouth Afonja internet warrior here are a bunch of unreasonable tribalistic beasts.

It's a pity ez\euche like babbling on Nonsensical issues. how can you say he can not lay claim to Lagos since he is not from Lagos. Once he is a Yoruba Man, he can do as he like in Lagos. But for us to allow omo Ajeku Okuta Mamu omi to Start doing omo Onile in Lagos, Never. we no go allow such harakiri

wolebaba:

OHANEZE IS STIRRING THE HORNET'S NEST,
WE YORUBAS WILL DEFINITELY READ MEANINGS TO THIS, WHY CANT THESE OLD MEN JUST ALLOW US COHABIT PEACEFULLY?

I HAVE NEVER MET ANY IGBO GUY OR LADY WHO HAS ASKED FOR WAT OHANEZE IS LISTING, WHY CANT THESE OLD MEN GO BACK TO THEIR VILLAGES AND DIE QUIETLY, RATHER THAN CAUSING WAHALA FOR THE YOUNG ONES?

RUBBISH OLD MEN!!!!!!!!!!!!!!ARE U HAPPY NOW THAT YOUR SILLY COMMENT HAS CAUSED YOUR EDUCATED YOUNG PEOPLE GO AGAINST THOSE OF OTHER TRIBES?

THE FACT IS; OHANEZE DOES NOT REALLY REPRESENT ANYONE BUT THEMSELVES(THE OLD BASTARDS), THEY ALWAYS BARK BUT HAVE NEVER BITTEN ANYONE, DURING THE ABACHA ERA, WHERE WERE THEY? IF TRULY THEY REPRESENT IGBOS, HOW DID THEY NOT SUPPORT UNWAZURIKE IN HIS BID FOR A SEPARATE COUNTRY OF THEIR OWN, RUBBISH!!!!!!!!!!!

EzeUche_:

Rubbish!

Now I can see Lagos will be ground-zero if you Yorubas try anything to deprive Igbo SETTLERS of land in Lagos. If you all cannot recognize our right to Lagos just like Ijaws, Ibibio, Urhobos, Isako, Bini etc, then no one can have Lagos.

I pray that one day Lagos goes into the sea, but if that doesn't happen, Lagos would be best razed. . . And you all can go back to whatever trashy city that you hail from. Ibadan has been neglected all these years.

seanet02:

Reverse is the case. Lagos will continue to Prosper while Ohakim will continue to plaunder Iboland into more Misery

EzeUche_:

Does Ohakim = Igboland. You must of been asleep in Geography class. Igboland by far is more prosperous than the whole of the South-West minus Lagos.

It shows how ignorant you Yorubas are when it comes to other regions in Nigeria. Igboland has been spared the devastation that can be found in the core Niger Delta.

seanet02:

mumu, have you ever heard what is called 'The Lung Of the World"?
That is where i will drop you to live the rest of your Life if you keep arguing with your better on the Bolded!!

afam4eva:

This is the reason why Nigeria should be split let everyone go their seperate ways. This is crazy. Is there any constitution in the world that allows people to vote but not be voted for. How can some who was born in Lagos or has lived the better part of their life in lagos not be allowed to contest for a political offfice. It is a backward thinking to say the least.

By the way how's the capital of a country determined because i think it's cheating that you build a capital with federal money and at the end of the day someone is telling me that everyone does not have equal right in that city.

EzeUche_:

I guess you don't know the difference between physical geography and human geography.   

Shows how smart you are i-diot. You will never be smarter than me. Not in a million years.

afam4eva:

When we're talking about Abuja and Lagos pls don't bring any other state into it. Unlike other states Lagos was a federal capital meaning that federal money was pumped into the city.  Not that there's anything wrong with a yoruba person running for a position in Enugu or anywhere else provided he's lived in that city for a reasonable number of years.

onye_ngbu:

Just like I told your brothers, stop hyperventilating over something you cant do crap about.

No igbo person has come to take your land but they have come to stay and you guys should come to terms with that already.

You cannot do anything about it. SIMPLE!

revomind:

Who has stopped any person born in Lagos from contesting for any political office? Can you give us instances? No group has the power, majority or indigenous, to stop anybody from contesting political office even if that person wasn't born in Lagos. The law is pretty clear. What the law wouldn't tell you or any person for that matter is that there are political dynamics that will stop a non-indigene from winning even if he contests. The law while giving you the right to be voted for also gave those voters the right to vote for anyone they want. It also gave those that constitute these voters the assurance that they are not breaking the law if they choose not to vote for someone they deem as not part of them. Anyway, that same law did not implore us to just standby and give our total support to one Mr Eze, who feels he and his kinsmen have contributed more than anyone else and also outnumber the other groups in the state, to run for Governor. Mr Eze should feel very confident of his chances even with Yoruba antagonism since they are the majority, abi? There are more than 20 political parties if I'm not mistaken, if you feel so strongly about it, you or any of your kinsmen should pick up the ticket and contest.

EzeUche_:

Do you Yorubas from other parts of Yorubaland have an ancestral claim to Lagos?

It is a honest question. Or, because the people who claim ownership are a Yoruba clan, than all Yorubas have a claim to Lagos?
