What Is Igbo People Obsession With Lagos? by Michael004: 6:15pm On Oct 27, 2017 |
Two igbo guys were arguing with one Yoruba guy about the owner of Lagos. At first, I refused to join the discussion, but they kept disturbing that guy and asking him questions. One of the igbo guys told the guy that Lagos is no man's land. Later on in their argument, the second one said Lagos belongs to the binis because they had the son of the oba of bini as king of Lagos in the past. The Yoruba guy was trying to tell him about how awori people of Yoruba extraction were the first settlers in today's Lagos and how they made the son of oba of Bini their king before the coming of the Portuguese. One of the guys cut in and said it is a lie, he didn't allow him to tell them the story. He asked the guy if Lagos was part of oyo empire, the Yoruba guy said no, then they concluded that since Lagos was not part of oyo Empire, Lagos does not belong to the yourbas that they only want to claim it. That was what prompted me to join the argument. I said to the igbo guys, you people asked if Lagos was part of oyo empire and I said, of course No. Since you said Lagos is not Yoruba land because it was not part of oyo empire, then I want to ask you these Was ondo part of oyo empire? They said how I want them to know. Was ogun part of oyo empire? They said I no? Was ekiti part of oyo empire? They didn't answer. Then I asked them, why did you not say those states are not Yoruba land? Told them how confused they were. One of you said it is no man's land and the other one one said it is bini land, which one do you belong to. The became muted and started stammering. I said they should forget and continue their hustling. This is Lagos, Lagos knows her owner. Then I walked away from them. My question is why is it only igbo that are killing themselves over Lagos, something that God has ordained already. Are they the only non yorubas in Lagos that they are so obsessed with our land? What is their obsession with our land? Igbo and ipob, what is your obsession with our land? Just asking. 13 Likes 2 Shares

Thesame reason your leaders are chanting one Nigeria, everybody are in for what they can scavenge from Nigeria remains, U should be thankful to Igbos... In Amahausa Imo State, Hausas have been living there for morethan 40yrs but they don't have one building to thier name instead they prefer staying in their batch hut, sell and sleep there.. But igbos will come to your land huzzle make money, lay down an edifice in the name of one Nigeria.... All u lazy lots could do is to get envious and ask why are they protecting their investments as if u do same in igbo land.. If u think Lagos became what it is today because of yoroubas then travel to Ekiti state to see first hand how yoroubas development looks like. I get it, the reason Yoroubas are not clamoring for succession is cos they want igbo mumu to continue so that in next 50yrs Lagos, ogun, Ekiti, Akure will be developed by hardworking Nigerians who as a result of Lagos proximity with Almost everything international related Nigeria have moved their business down there. But baba God pass una... This is why I support Biafra... Igbo mumu Don do.. After everything u do to show Nationhood all u would see is lazy people telling you this is their Land and Not Nigeria anymore. Land in Badagry, ikorodu is below 300k and igbos and other tribe are buying it massively and also building something on it... In the nxt 10-20yrs your type will arrange omo nile to go and collect owo eda and later ask what is igbos obsession with Lagos. LAZY THING U WON'T GO AND HUZZLE NOW AND BELIKEDEMIGBOS 20 Likes 2 Shares |

Michael004: In the silly fellowship of restructure of the zoo called Nigeria, most Igbo people had suggested that Nigeria must build Lagos and Abuja in the defunct eastern region and midwestern region respectively. When the defunct eastern region is handed its Lagos, then so-called Igbo obsession with Lagos could be discussed. 8 Likes |

The actual reason they lost the civil war was their obsession with Eko (Lagos). When biafran soldiers came all the way to Lagos from alaigbo to annex it. I'm sure Benjamin Adekunle the Black scorpion (God rest him) had his reasons for going berserk on them. They tried Yorubas and got more than they bargained for, let them try again and see what will befall them. 7 Likes |

Op do you know that you've ended making no sense other than to showcase your obsession on the Igbos? What is your proof that the Aworis were the first settlers in Lagos State apart from the conjured history from parasites like you from nearby states to Lagos? Lagos is undeniably owned by the Benins and the foreigners if you're even to reason the rightful owners. Have you ever seen or heard non-Yorubas arguing over the ownership of Osun, Oyo etc apart from Kwara that was conquered? leave Igbos out of this; when it's time, the real owners of Lagos will speak up and down the parasitic noisemakers like you. 5 Likes |

Why don’t you worry about your own people’s problems instead of worrying about what some Igbo people say about you? One of your Yoruba Muslim brethren told me that the Ooni of Ife, a so called Christian, was crowned by the Sultan of Sokoto, a man who should be a foreigner in your land. Why is it that Islam has started to take precedence over Yoruba culture and none of you Yoruba Christians are worried about it? ![]() 15 Likes 1 Share |

Let me educate the op small cos I'm sick and tired of demented fools trolling up and down the internet, opening silly threads about Igbos and their livelihood. Op no average Igbo man is obsessed with Lagos, we all know that Lagos is located in your geospace. The reason you see a lot of igbos here in Lagos because they do business here and like all serious minded business men the need to cover more grounds an attribute of successful people. Now why Lagos? Lagos is the major business hub in Nigeria and it's the commercial capital of the country. Thanks to the federal government of Nigeria, we have major sea ports, international airports that makes it the number one choice for business location and thus why most businesses have their headquarters located in Lagos. Igbos that stay there fend for themselves and no one is feeding them there. How many igbos do you see walking up the street begging? I challenge you to bring me some figures. Why did I bring this up? Because I know that is where your post is heading to, and about how igbos should respect their hosts. Note this applies to all hardworking people irrespective of their tribes or ethnic origin not only igbos 8 Likes |
