Igbos In Lagos Are Not The Only Foreigners In Yoruba Land - Respect The Host by akingangan: 5:21pm On Mar 07, 2023 |
Igbos in Lagos are not the only foreigners in Yoruba land but seem to be the only ones that want to overrun the city of the hospitable Omoluwabi people. Lagos is a Yoruba land for all of recorded history before it became a major hub for trade and commerce during the colonial period. Today, Lagos is a diverse city with a blend of various ethnic groups, cultures, and languages. The Yoruba language and culture still have a significant influence on the city's identity and way of life. If not for colonialism, Yoruba land originally stretches from parts of Delta State to Togo, Benin, and parts of Ghana where you have the Ewe people. Trying to overrun another people's land will make people angry and can lead to social unrest. Below is a Map of Yoruba Land for educational purposes 10 Likes 3 Shares

I hope history is not about to repeat itself. Yoruba have still not learned from how Ajase(Porto Novo) went from being a Yorubaland to now become a city of two tribes, Yoruba and Fon. 1 Like 1 Share |

BurialGround: What can not happen in the East is what you people are trying in Yoruba land, Hausa are far more than Igbo people in Lagos but you never see them meddle in politics of Lagos state let alone lay claim to what is not their own. This is how you people start Biafra war, we will rather go into that war rather being coward for Igbo to claim our land in the name of you buy one property or other.

akingangan:No body is a foreigner in his own country, you can't use the word foreigner to describe a citizen of Nigeria in Nigeria. The Igbo may not be indigenes of Lagos but they are citizens of Nigeria of which Lagos is part of. The constitution grants every Nigerian the right to own both movable and immovable property anywhere in Nigeria and that gives him the right to political decisions. The Igbo isn't dragging Lagos or any state of the South West with you, it's their right to decide who they align with. If you aren't comfortable with that, mobilize more people to defeat them fairly. These intimidation and gaslighting won't work. Mind you too, those of you quick to remind the Igbo of 1967/1970 should know that things have changed. The Igbo weren't afraid of you then and now still won't be afraid of you. 2 Likes |
