Lagos is a no man's land.

How many of them are in rusty Ibadan or Oshogbo?

Larryslim:

Japa!
You people should just be thanking your stars that your Fathers came to Lagos to hustle,if not una for dey una village dey farm now!
Because it's like you don't want to have sense again!

Shut up Nigeria is for all Nigerians until Biafra is formed then we know who is a visitor and who's not, till then let your pain continue as Igbos continue to dominate Lagos.......

You can’t defeat Jagaban in Lagos. Igbos will only push Ambode into fire. Same way they pushed Jonathief ,Fayose,Eleka and the dancing Ajobiewe clown from EDE.

You developed Lagos? Repeat that lie to yourself - but now in front of a mirror. See? It's heavy in your mouth like you're holding a lot of spittle?

So, why are the other SW states not at the level of Lagos in terms of development? No need to rack your brain. I'll try to break it down for you. Lagos was Nigeria's FCT for over 4 decades, that meant it enjoyed national development with national resources (crude oil which is 90% South South).

So, next time if you want to compare SW to SE, SS or any part of Nigeria, use Osun, Oyo, Ekiti, Ondo and Ogun as standard. Not Lagos. Lagos was developed by all Nigerians and to a considerable degree belongs to all Nigerians.

Especially if you've lived in Lagos for up to 25 years, you're automatically a Lagosian and can contest for the post of the governor, or any other elective post - no matter where you come from.

Incidentally most of these folks claiming 'Lagos belongs to us' are actually from Ogun State. SMH.

No hope for the tribalistic Ambode. Let him go and continue his tribalism in his native Akure state

AlhajaChinyere:


What do igbos dominate in Lagos?

AlhajaChinyere:


Ok, your fvck ups will be severely dealt with....just watch.

You are NOT and will never be a lagosian, never!

Ben Bruce went to his home state Bayelsa for political post. Now Pat Utomi has gone to Delta to run for governorship. You think they are fools? Despite spending most of their lives in Lagos with much to show for it.
Oga go and identity your state of origin and get your yam leg out if my yoruba land.

It's very good the man is putting up a small fight.

So they knew what happened in osun state?

Even if ambode eventually wins or not, tinubu wing is gonna be crippled. Some truth about him will soon start popping out.

To my fellow defenders of Buhari cos of tinubu, can we see the handwriting on the wall?

The way Buhari saw and treated him after the 2015 election is the same way he is still treating him except that tinubu has been trying to lick the ground Buhari stepped on to try and curry favour from him but Buhari and his cabal don't just like this man.

Can u guys stop and ponder what will happen if Buhari wins 2019?

The north will continue to play and use u guys.
So shameful

ajl:


I am Lagos born and bred. A son of the soil. Tell your Lord that his time is up in Lagos. People are not blind. Tinubu will be taken to the cleaners. It's the beginning of his end as the Barton is about to be passed to another generation. Ambode is a performer. Even the blind could feel it.

Madam (or is it chief?),calm down. Do you remember Senator Grace Folasade Bent? Yes, she's Yoruba, but became a Senator in Adamawa State (Google it).

Now that is Adamawa, a non-cosmopolitan state and certainly not a former FCT like Lagos that the national government developed. In spite of these facts, be sincere, can any non-Yoruba emerge as a Senator in Lagos?

Nope, he will be likely be told to go to his home state, no matter the affiliation with Lagos. Utomi and Bruce did the right thing. I would too if I was in their shoes, especially knowing that in ethnically fragile country like Nigeria, only their homeland will appreciate their effort more.

I know non-yoruba and non-APC HOA members from Festac area only won because of the makeup of the voting population there. Yet people like you call fellow Nigerians in their own country "foreigners."

Someday things will change and the constitution will be amended. Parties like APC cannot be registered as one, people like Buhari cannot emerge as president, and people like you will be irrelevant in serious political discourse.

Change is constant. QED.

Omo Igbo, wetin concern you with lagos?

BlastAfonja:

Hehehe ask the idiot bro.. they shout lagos lagos lagos forgetting lagos is cosmopolitan, If they want to pride themselves as developed region they should use other states as yardstick not Lagos, or are those ones not "developed west region" also..

micolaj:
Ambode and Otedola must not contest in 2019 under different parties. Otherwise, Sanwo Olu will not survive.

No political analyst can tell me APC can match their combo force. It is simply impossible.

In 2019 election of Ambode, Sanwo Olu and Otedola, victory is certain for everybody but SANWO OLU.

Just read between the lines.
Though it will be tough for Ambode to contest under different party , as he might not be able to stand the consequence (impeachment).

Drama!

I think the headline should be "inside carcass of the APC not wanting to support ambode because he is working more than planned"

OfficialAPCNig:

You are informed.

The fools think we are fools like that. Look at Ibadan the then Pride of WA, we left the city for them they couldn't sustain the development now allowing the glorious city to sink into a rusty republic.

All those fools shouting Lagos, Lagos, go to the same lagos, an average igbo family lives in a better accommodation than theirs.

In spite of the war that destroyed Enugu to the ground, Enugu was named in the first batch of the top 100 most resilient cities in the world the same day and time Barcelona, Paris, London, Athens e.t.c were named. Only 35 global cities made the first batch.

The Ambode they are insulting used Enugu's model to get Lagos included but a typical afonja known for dirtiness couldn't sustain that, the following year, that Lagos was named a mega city of slum.

If Ndi Igbo leave Lagos for them again and move to Ekiti, Lagos would sink into the same pitiable state as Ibadan.

Foolish people.
