They Scapegoat Igbos With Lagos Is No Man's Land, Now It is Not Yorubaland by AlexBells(m): 10:05am On Mar 20, 2021 |
For average of us Igbos who had only visited Lagos for quite a short time, we assume Lagos is Yorubaland until recently, the Benin and others are asking for a piece of the cake. A lot of Other tribes especially Yorubas had heaped it on the Igbos as the original people who coined Lagos as no man's land but funny enough Lagos is only no man's land to Lagosians, in AlaIgbo sentiments aside we truly see Lagos as Yorubaland. Now that agitation for Oduduwa Republic is taking shape the trends making wave is: Is Lagos Yorubaland ?. My question is why is it that once an Igbo man or others passed Ore he will begin to see Lagos as no man's land, could it be some people are really sponsoring the rhetoric to the loud and stronghead Igbos so that they can spread the gospel. Dear Ndigbo in Lagos stop helping them spread their gospel if they are bold enough they should go for Lagos meanwhile as it stands now I don't know whose land Lagos is but I'm quite sure it is not AlaIgbo unless in the future we chose to buy it from the owners like the United States bought Alaska. Having said that I implore all Igbos to stop calling Lagos no man's land if you can't call her Yorubaland as we are thought in AlaIgbo then call her Benin land. 1 Like 1 Share |

Fahdiga:But it is very real for an Igbo to become the governors of Lagos, since they are yet to accept Lagos as Benin land or Lagos as a Yorubaland it will be great for Lagos to be government by neutrals that will represent the interest of both parties 2 Likes |

You people are causing problems for igbos in Lagos. The yorubas have welcomed and settled with the igbos for Decades in Yorubaland, we intermarry and they employ us In their civil service. Calling Lagos a no man's land is very disrespectful as yorubas are strongly in the position of authority in Lagos. You are only making them detest our brothers in Lagos. This might even lead a mass purge from the Lagos state civil service. Calling Lagos a no man's land might result in a very huge loss for igbos in Lagos if we don't watch our utterances. Let's us be reasonable. 9 Likes |

MrColdsweat:Continue mentioning the Igbos in Lagos, causing trouble for who, is like you want to understand the might of the Igbo nation just touch law abiding Igbos and meet your Waterloo, this is applicable to all tribes. Whatever loss you are bringing will be mutually shared by all Nigerians including you Yorubas and even the government of Nigeria so you don't threaten the Igbos, bring your madness on and it will be retaliated massively 1 Like |

Re: They Scapegoat Igbos With Lagos Is No Man's Land, Now It is Not Yorubaland by AlexBells(m): 11:50am On Mar 20, 2021 |
christistruth01:The problem with Lagos is that while some 99 years expired yesterday another will expire in the next 99 years so if you opt for the 99 years expiry like Hongkong, would your people stop selling land, Remember we did not buy the entire Lagos but plot by plot so you see it wont be that easy the best approach is to work a deal with us and buy back those properties or use the 99 years approach and stop selling lands but the most realistic one is to buy back the land. Lgos state government can not in a single day claim back all the lands that had been sold it will bring real chaos. Becuase that will mean even native Yorubas will loose their lands to the government now the question who is the government, now is someone trying to be the new single owner of Lagos state. So not as easy as you may assume |
Re: They Scapegoat Igbos With Lagos Is No Man's Land, Now It is Not Yorubaland by AlexBells(m): 11:51am On Mar 20, 2021 |
tamdun:As one is expiring today another is expiring in 99 years time stop selling lands if you want us to take you serious in 99 years time |
