Edo Is Not Lagos by Preyetonye(m): 9:52am On Sep 15, 2022
Looking at my maternal state, Edo state, the number of Igbo's are increasing daily, so I want to sound this note of warning, this is how Lagos started and the igbos starts claiming that Lagos is a no man's land. Edos should wise up, I know you are accommodative people but, give the Igbo's some years and they will start saying that Edo especially Benin city is a no man's land and it belongs to everybody
Re: Edo Is Not Lagos by SlavaUkraini: 9:53am On Sep 15, 2022
Your Fears are Unfounded...

Edo State is indeed not Lagos and can never be...

No Igbo person will ever open his / her mouth to say that Benin City is a "No Man's Land"...

The Benin Monarchy has been there for Generations.

The Benin Kingdom is one of, if not the most popular ancient Kingdoms in Nigeria...

So how can certain group of people from the East now claim that Benin City or Edo State in general is a "No Man's Land" ?

That is not Possible.

If Edo was not empty, Igbo could not have entered. If Igbo people are entering, it means there is space. Occupy it so Igbo will not come.

Are you saying Lagos has no monarchs well respected, or that there are no indigenes of Lagos before igbos came? We have just been too magnanimous in Lagos. Dashing a massive piece of land to the igbos without paying kobo in Alaba by Jakande was a massive mistake.
Re: Edo Is Not Lagos by limeta(f): 11:26am On Sep 15, 2022
Edo is not bothered about the igbo.s not at all
Edo should be more concerned with the number of hausa fulani taking over the entire state setting up emir ship in the state.

1- You cannot compare the Lagos monarchy to that of Benin in terms of History ...

2- Yes Lagos Indegenes are too magnanimous and Lax.

That is why a Notorious Drug Baron from Irigbaji Osun State can act as Pharaoh and has held the Original Indegenes in Captivity for Long while he is continuously looting the Lagos State Treasury even after leaving office 15 years ago...

The Original Lagos State Indegenes knows too well what the Drug Baron is doing to their common wealth, but because of the Crumbs that is been dolled out to them, they are relaxed in Captivity...

People from other States have seen this Nonsense happening in Lagos State and have therefore Coined and Embraced the Slogan....

Lagos is a No Man's Land

It is not their Fault

IPOB' is busy burning their Region to the Ground and to Ashes and eating their own people as Seasoned meat with Egusi and Akpu

That was what IPOB has unleashed on a once Peaceful Region after they released hardened Criminals and Cannibals from Jail on Nnamdi Kanu's orders

That is why their Own people are now fleeing the SE as if they are fleeing from a War Zone

Don't Worry
Yorubas did their own for God and Mankind

It is those that insult and slap the face of those who treated them well that would bear the Consequences

Elections will soon be over

Complete nonsense. All the civilian governors of Lagos can trace their origin outside Lagos, including Jakande. And Tinubu did massive transformation of Lagos. The few disgruntled elements from Lagos who have axe to grind with Tinubu can be known, and they have land issues with Tinubu government, not Tinubu himself. Without Tinubu, Lagos would not have known that they could generate high IGR to develop the city. So, I see your hatred for Tinubu as hatred for development and good governance. Peter Obi did not do anything near what Tinubu has done for Lagos.

Re: Edo Is Not Lagos by paramakina202: 1:15pm On Sep 15, 2022
Tinubu supporter are creating anti Igbo topics to cause ethnic war between Edo and their Igbo neigbhnours.Igbos are in Ibadan,Abeokuta and other Yoruba cities have they ever called those places no mans land?
It is Tinubu who is actually from Iragbiji treating Lagos state like a no mans land.He should return the state to the original owners.

Igbos have been living alongside Edo people for hundreds of years without any issues; and it is you from nowhere that will tell Edo people what to do?
My friend, you're just a shame*less immature Afonja.

Stupidity is when you believe that I am Obidient or Igbo because I don't support the Notorious Drug Baron..

We are talking about the Original Lagos State Indegenes here...

And from your own comment, you just Proved why people use that Slogan "Lagos is No Man's Land" .

You said "All the civilian governors of Lagos can trace their origin outside Lagos, including Jakande."

Now the question is, where are the original landlords of Lagos State... ?

For the Past 24 years, why has non of them been elected as Governor of Lagos State ?

Their Laxity and Free hand Approach is giving Credence to the Notion that "Lagos is a No Man's Land"

I for one has never believed in that Useless Slogan that "Lagos is a No Man's Land"

and have called for the original landlords of Lagos State to rise up and take back their land and rights from external influences..

Lagos State belongs to the Original Indegenes and they must rise up and take back what is theirs.

I am one of the descendants of owners of Lagos island. My family is well known in Ita Faji, I will not mention for security reasons. I was borne in Mushin, my parents were borne in Lagos island. Nobody owns Lagos more than me. And yes, our lives have been carefree type for many years. That’s why atohunrinwa became governors. But Tinubu and other governors, apart from Otedola who is the only Ikorodu indigene, have performed creditably well. I hold no grudge against them. Most of us hold no grudge except for Major General Olanrewaju and his bingos shouting everywhere because of a land tussle on VI.
