Why? Our revered Ajofia.

Ajofia doesn't come cheap o. Whoever that is taking it to Lagos MUST be a big boy

Mauwa'lum Oji

I ga di ka mkpume di na epere mmrir

Igbo sef no Gree you speak Abi write. It's ironical singing ajofia song and quoting Bible as your signature. Confusion at it's Zenith.

These IPOBs should go to their land and feed their ancestors in their homelands.

Why importing your ancestors to Lagos (a foreign land) to lick your àssês in public view when in reality they (your ancestors) dare not step out on Mondays in your homelands?

Is this a kind of joke?

Chest beaters will not seize to amaze me.

If not for tribalism, I don't see any big deal in nnewi masquerade coming to Lagos so long Yoruba's egungun also parade Lagos.

From the Yoruba cultural perspective, masquerades are spirit beings (ara orun). Their history and actions are rooted in the beliefs and traditions of their localities. They don't go beyond their areas even within the cities in some cases.

You guys must be mad and stupid at the same time.

If you want to celebrate your culture/tradition, go and do that in your landlocked redmud region.

We don't share border with you nuisances, but you guys will never let us rest. angry

Thanks you Lagos state police for doing the needful.

Yorubaland have nothing in common with igbos. cool

Igbo masquerades perform all over the world. Read this news very well. Only Ajofia was stopped from coming to Lagos because of an incititing video, others will be there

Arrest them all and detain them then deport them all heaven won't fall, they are my people but dem no dey hear word.

The Ajiofa spirit masquerade that parallarizes people that speaks or think evil about it……

Yorubas must have to be very careful bcuz this particular masquerade is a dreaded spirit masquerade and not an ordinary one……

The masquerade’s body is adorned with a variety of dead animals, live animals, and crawling insects, enhancing its potency of charms, it also produces Smokes, often seen emanating from Ajofia Nnewi’s head of which must not be inhaled by anyone against it or anyone that speaks or thinks evil about it….

Same reason it carrries “anunu ebe,” a tree under which no bird perches and no plant can grow.

Yoruba people of our time will live to regret the foolish tribalism Tinubu's politics is teaching them. It always look sweet at the beginning.


The message is being received all over the world. Notes are being taken.


What is the big deal in people celebrating their culture?


Something Yorubas ought to have enjoyed watching it display for fun. Yoruba people, what are you guys afraid of of recent? It's not normal, nature's call will come, you will reap the fruit of your unwarranted wickedness and hatred towards Igbos.


That Tinubu stole Presidential mandate from Peter Obi does not mean Yoruba have conquered Nigeria and Igbos as you people foolishly believe. Time will tell.


We shall see to it.


What stops Yorubas living in Southeast from taking Eyo Masquerade to Southeast to celebrate Eyo day of which Igbos will be glad to gather to watch it display.


Yorubas know it that you guys are being foolish and taking your tribalism and hatred for Igbos too far and thinking you have won forever just cos Tinubu snatched the Presidential mandate.


We Igbos gladly sew Yoruba Agbada and even take it to our various villages during Xmas or other festive periods to wear cheerfully and display our love for Yoruba culture even in our own villages without your presence. Igbos have never stopped Yorubas from going to Onitsha, Aba, Owerri, Enugu or Abakaliki to live freely and associate as they love.


Igbos I know would be glad to watch Eyo Masquerade or any other Yoruba masquerade come to Southeast to display. But here are Yorubas rejoicing over this show of shame of stopping Igbos from bringing an Igbo Masquerade to Lagos to perform for fun. Whereas Igbos even take their masquerade to Europe, America, Asia, Australia, etc to celebrate Igbo day and oyimbo will gladly visit to watch and catch fun of diverse culture. It's okay we are getting your messages.

Una go collect back all these nonsense from nature not even from Igbos.


My father said Igbos cried in Plateau, Benue, Kaduna and some Middlebelt states when Middlebelt people colluded with Hausa-Fulanis to massacre unarmed civilian Igbos living in their communities because of the fall out of military coups of 1966. He said many innocent Igbos cried and cursed that Middlebelt lands will reap the fruit of their unjust wickedness against Igbos but most of them laughed it off that nothing will happen.


Decades later, look at what is happening to Middlebelt, Kaduna and the entire North. Massacre of innocent people everyday by known and unknown militant groups, terrorists and gunmen.


Yoruba people tread with caution for it is not yet an Uhuru for you guys


Time will teach you people a bitter lesson of the different nonsense you guys have been doing just because Tinubu became President by crooks.


Yoruba land flourished and remained peaceful because your forefathers followed peace and friendship pathway but you Yoruba children of today chose to follow Bola Tinubu's divisive, ethnocentric and nepotistic politics of hatred, division and sectionalism. You guys should prepare for the outcome.


The fruit of your wicked farming today will full several baskets in due time.

Honestly the last election caused a lot of damage to the relationship between the yorubas and the igbos. Before now, the yorubas do not care if igbo man is Eze in Lagos, or masquerade of nnewi coming to Lagos or igbos appointed commissioners all of a sudden the yorubas are now becoming hostile to anything igbo. I would say the igbos are the architect of whatever the yorubas of Lagos are dishing out to them right now.
For peace to reign, let everyone stay in their regions and perform traditional masquerade dance as they like. It is excesses taking the gods of a region to a different region. The gods of the second region will be angry.
Before we start having sango/ogún fighting with amadioha

You are a big fo ol for saying they are the architect of blah blah blah.

When does voting for a candidate of your choice become a crime?

Simply because they were defeated in Lagos, so that is why you labeled it their fault.

If not for one thing, I wound have said make God pu nish you for this rub bish you spewed.
