Thank you my brother, they were pushed to instigate the news. dead on arrival. Original indigenes of Lagos will never come out and say such, those groups are politician benefiting from their pay master who sold Lagos to foreigners. na small time remain, you all go answer how you got the land you claiming. decent2: |

BATeria on the beat. Don't twist the narratives. Lagos Indigenes in Lagos hv spoken they don't want to be part of South West if Regional System Returns. It has always been Lagos Colony! They're the real stakeholders, who wear the shoes & know where they pinch! These ones in "Ovesee" are Chicago Boys, we know! On who used "Lagos is no man's land". It was Lateef Jakande who was, consequently, overwhelmingly voted when he was seeking elections... Deoye Falade : The first recorded statement referring to Lagos State as 'No-man's-land' was made by a Yoruba man in 1979. That man is the much loved Lateef Jakande, former governor of Lagos State during his inaugural address to the people of Lagos on October 1, 1979. You don't have to believe me though, Google is your friend but I'll share the direct quote below: "In 1886, Lagos was again set up as a separate colony in response to a petition by the people of Lagos who resented being governed from the Gold Coast. It was administered by a Governor of the Colony of Lagos under Letters Patent dated 13th January 1886. This was the first time that the territory now known as Lagos State came under one administration. The administration continued under various constitutions until 1954 when Lagos was separated from the rest of the Colony and constituted a Federal Territory, that is to say, a No-Man’s Land. "God moves in a mysterious way, says William Cowper, His wonders to perform. His purposes will ripen fast, unfolding every hour. ... We learned nothing from the Civil War and this is on both the people and the government. For one, our government refuses to admit that it was not just a war but a genocide and by that refusal, glosses over a huge problem that will continue to plague us. Rwanda experienced their civil war in the 90s - two decades after ours but they learned. 'Never again' is a key phrase when it comes to both the Rwandan genocide and WWII. But here we are in Nigeria, learning nothing and making the same mistakes from 50 years ago. Isn't it curious that this ethnic divisionary tactic only seems to rear its head every election cycle? The actors may be different but the playbook is the same. In 2023, it's MC Oluomo, Bayo Onanuga and co. In 2019, it was still MC Oluomo. In 2015, it was the Oba of Lagos and his Lagoon vibes. I'm sure that in 2027, it will be someone else but the same playbook will be used regardless of who the opposition candidate is. Doesn't matter if it's Jimi Agbaje, Musilu Obanikoro or Gbadebo Chinedu, it always creeps in. Maybe we can't do better in general because we don't know better but that shouldn't be an excuse because the resources to know better are out there, we're just too lazy to think, not to talk of do. And it's even more grati *** Fun Fact: Jakande won by getting 559,070 votes to become the first Executive Governor of Lagos State in 1979. In 2019, Babajide Sanwo-Olu won with 739,445 votes and in 2023, he won with 736,000 votes. For all of Lagos' population explosion over a space of almost 50 years, very little has changed. I think that's pretty interesting. https://m.facebook.com/story.php?story_fbid=pfbid02j4YfvqWgNGp8NTZQnYEWpb5Pw186uBCg6VChiQremZ9UVB9jN99C3nH4mtpWiDoil&id=1098856981 |

So I guess the ibo man went through the election process and was voted by Lagosian😂😂….the same way a yorubaman was once military administrator of a State in sad yeast was the same way an ibo was appointed and not elected….when they say go to school, Una go talk say school na scam, now see how you are disgracing your ancestors. So I guess the Oba of Lagos too was once ibo or the title of oba, is also an ibo title? You cursed region has just 5plot of land but you lot ain’t contented with that, but your covetousness and greed for Lagos Yorubaland will continue to make you lot miserable and frustrated….proudly Lagos Yoruba boy, nwanne pls be proud of that cursed region you came from, Lagos is solely yorubaland and so shall it be till the end of time.

Enugurangers:Does it mean that any comment on this issue, for those that doesn't want Lagos to be part of south west must all be Igbo's, even the comments here on this issue, what make you to think they're all Igbo's? the Lagos technocrats or whatever that made the statement are they Igbo's? You that claimed to be an Igbo, why are you bringing Igbo's, into the decision and arguments of lagosians. Na una dey cause problem for Igbo's. Meanwhile, the people that poke nose into other's affairs in Nigeria we all know they're the Yorubas's. Raise the issue of Biafra or Nnamdi Kanu, you will see that, even those of them that are about to die, will wake up and start kicking against it, since they've made it their hubbies and part of their lives to stand against anything Igbo's, same should be replicated. Shebi na them they carry the matter say south south Igbo's speakers, are not Igbo's. |
Re: Lagos Indigenes In North America Support Regional System Of Govt by franudi: 6:33am On Jun 07 |
Why bringing Igbo to this conversation? The Lagos indigenes in Nigeria said that they are not part of the South West, not Igbos that said it. |

athaboi:😂😂😂 ibo Christian, Lagos is yorubaland, bordered by Yoruba states, so tell us how Lagos can even be taken and added to Biafra map? We understand how miserable and frustrating it is to come from. Landlocked erosion ravaged land😂 blame your ancestors and not the Yoruba man, maybe in your next life you can also come has a yorubaman and maybe you can now claim obodo ragos😂😂 shameless cursed migrant from a deserted land. 4 Likes |

SonofLagos: Nobody is saying Biafra here, lagos indigents said they don't want you leeches who contribute nothing to their state only hooliganism, tribal and ethnic chaos, I wish they push for the bill of regionalism so that you will cry out your intestine from your nose out of hunger. |

Ikpunekenwa:Miserable and frustrated cursed migrants I guess you woke up this morning and the thought of Lagos, yorubaland keeps tormenting you😂 see how miserable your life has become nwachukwu…..but on this same thread,the same indigenous Lagosian in diaspora also has the same right the fools that first issued out the statement. Or what makes those ones more lagosian than this group of lagosian? I’m proudly Lagos and I also have a right to support this group, and besides what is the business of a migrant Okoro who travelled kilometre’s from Alaibo to obodo ragos in search of greener pastures, with yorubaland? For goodness seek nwanne, we don’t even share border and have nothing in common with you lots😂 but Lagos seem to be the headache of an ibo man….don’t you think this reeks of ow inferiority and shameful? 3 Likes |

You know nothing about us lagosians, you are just a nonentity migrant who should know it place. You lots are just getting dumber each day with your warped narrative..you don’t even know your history if at all you have any, but you think you can tell our history and rewrite it just to suit your false narrative, covetous bast*rds, know your place nwanne Lagos is Yorubaland and so shall it be till the end of time. 6 Likes 1 Share |

Ikpunekenwa:Stop embarrassing yourself. There are three indigenous Yoruba ethnic groups in Lagos : The Aworis - All over Lagos from Lagos island in Lagos East to mainland to Iba in Lagos West the Ijebus - Lagos East (Ikorodu, Epe, Lekki, Lagos island, and environs) and the Eguns (Badagry). The three tribes are also indigenous to Ogun state. - Eguns are indigenous to the Yewa and Ipokia area of Ogun state - Ijebus are also indigenous to Ijebu areas of Ogun state - Aworis are indigenous to Ota, Iju Ishaga, Iju Akute, Ajuwon, Alagbole, Olambe, Ojodu e.t.c areas of Ogun state. 4 Likes 1 Share |

Ikpunekenwa: You know their tricks and you truly understand their dirty politics and how cowardly and mischievous they can be. The report had to mention Jaja Nwachukwu, a man who died many years ago in order to generate the sort of responses that want while ignoring that of Oba Akiolu, Seun Kuti and those of other Lagosians. It has to be the perennial paranoid nonsense about Igbos scheming to take over Lagos and Yoruba land to generate hate. Lagos indigenes lament about the politics being played by other Yoruba politicians, the particular individuals or group of people are automatically labelled Igbos! How cowardly and silly can a people be. Same pattern, same rhetorics everyday. Bola Tinubu paid a condolence visit to Pa Fasoranti whose daughter was brutally killed by Fulani bandits, he cowardly exonerated the killers to rope in Igbos and Evans while questioning the whereabout of the cows!. Cowards, mischief makers. Leave Igbos out of your dirty politics. |

KosiGee: I already know them, even their religious and traditional leaders are diabolically intrumentised to be this way, I showed them my tax returns and asked them what they contribute to Nigeria. I am very good friends with real lagos indigenes and I know how much they hate these people and how traumatised they are but you know this people and gas lighting are 5 and 6.
