The truth is that the last election was full of rigging for Buhari in Lagos State . Igbos in Lagos are more than 5 million. If 2 millions come to vote for PDP that means APC is gone.

Igbos will win up to 7 seats in Lagos Assembly come Saturday.

Our vote will be the decider. I am happy that most lgbo guy are relocating to Lagos everyday to stay and establish. While Yorubas are moving out towards Ogun state due to high cost of rent.

PDP will win on Sat.

I am a full blooded Igbo man but I believe the Yoruba's need to rise up and defend their identity, land, and culture. It's unfortunate to say this but the truth needs to be said by someone. We the Igbo's can no longer continue to be territorial in another mans land. We go to a place, they welcome us with an open hand, we establish there and prosper and the only way to show appreciation to them is to declare their land a "no man's land" How is this possible? Every land has indigenes.

What the Yoruba's are tolerating even we the Igbo's will not tolerate the same in our land. Why is it possible I can move to Lagos or any Yoruba land and willfully acquire any choice land at any part of Yoruba land as long as I have the means yet we cannot accord the same opportunity and privilege to Yoruba's in Igbo land? In my place no matter how much a Yoruba man is willing to buy land, that land will not be sold to him.

There is a serious need for equity from all sides. The Yoruba's must be accorded what they accord us. The Yoruba's must demand what is theirs. In Igbo land, Igbo's speak with one voice and foreigners cannot Influence things in our land. If we have Eze Igbo in Yoruba land, why then can't we have Oba of Yoruba in Igbo land? Yoruba's must stand up and defend that which is theirs. The liberality of the Yoruba's must be reciprocated by others. You can easily be a house of assembly member in Yoruba land even as an Igbo man or Akwa Ibom person but can we say the same in Igbo land?

You people must rise and defend what is yours. Elections in your land cannot continue to be decided by foreigners. It cannot happen in my place, so why would you Yoruba's allow it? Being too nice is foolishness. Defend what is yours now or forever lose it."

Do you agree or disagree with Lawrence Ibe?

Tinubu political ideology should be replicated and modified with time throughout Yoruba Land.Imagine a political candidate does not have to spend a dime to win election. Imagine a political structure that campaigns with no financial input from the candidate. The Igbo politicians cannot compromise Tinubu with their money hence their hatred towards him . pure and simple. However Agbaje can be bought so they invest in him .It is not normal for Igbo politicians to support Yoruba seeking political office . Agbaje is an Igbo project and so should be rejected by Yoruba and other non-Igbo in Lagos because Igbo politics is driving his campaign.

Mr. Igbo claimer, I have just two questions for you.
#1, how many Yorubas are living outside Yoruba land talk more of in Igbo land?
#2, has any Yoruba ever opted to purchase a portion of land in Igbo land and he's been denied based on his tribe? If there is any, kindly put it up here for everyone to see.
How do you expect someone with low self esteem in his back yard who is so inhibited with such towards progress to actually venture into farther lands and achieve anything. Igbos are naturally industrious and domineering, we step our foots and before you know it we dominate, not our fault, God has made it so and if you're not ok with that, go fight God!

That shows how daft you are! Tinubu is APC leader while George is PDP leader. If voting APC, means voting Tinubu, then voting Jimi means voting Bode George.

YES, he said so during 2015 campaign which pitched the Igbo against the Yoruba back then. Though I have not heard him say so this time around.

Provide an evidence of this claim or keep quiet.

Provide an evidence of this claim or keep quiet.

Few days after this, the ceremonial (not officially-recognized) leader of the Lagos-based Igbos commonly referred to as Eze Ndi Igbo openly stated with panache at a social function that “…[the Igbos] must produce the next deputy governor of Lagos [State]…” Annoying and taunting as these statements were to the Oba Of Lagos and indeed to all Yorubas in Lagos (especially the real Lagos indigenes in Epe, Ikorodu, Isale Eko, Olofin Isheri, etc), the governorship candidate of People's Democratic Party in Lagos State Mr Jimi Agbaje consciously or unconsciously worsened the situation by openly stating during his own political campaign that ”… I will elevate Eze Ndi Igbo to the status of Oba of Lagos …” and subsequently added during another campaign that “… I will appoint 6 Igbos as commissioners …”

That is an articulate by an individual who like many people on this forum have not provided a concrete evidence to this. I can claim that Sanwoolu said when he becomes the governor, he will deal with Igb people in Lagos and even write an article on it and promote it as truth. Agbaje is just a victim of being in the opposition and relying on Igbo support to become governor. if you can provide a reportage by news outlets such as PUNCH, SUN, Vanguard on where Agbaje actually made those statements then i will concede. I can't believe there's neither a video nor audio evidence in this time and age.

Mr. Rotimi Fabiyi wrote in and it was published online..

No reference to the specific campaigns, dates and what not?

How come I am able to pull online references for APC's hatespeech and actions from reputable media organisations but this particular Jimi Agbaje and Eze Ndigbo issue has none?

Lagos will rather burn to ashes than to see an igbo become an oba in lagos ... its not una fault anyway, u people are only taking advantage of the fact that yorubas like every other tribe but hate themselves ,they will stop @ nothing to pull each other down.
i can imagine igbos trying these in any part of north, even abuja wey be capital

Stop being a tribal bigot. We are all equal everywhere in Naija. And I am a Yoruba boy. Born and bred in lagos

My take is, if any candidate contest and is popular, he will win. so nobody can tell me an Igbo man cannot become governor of Lagos State. If he is popular and he wins, 10,000 Tinubus or Oluomos can't remove him

So the article that reported it was lying? You asked for evidence I provided one. That is evidence and Do newpapers such as Punch Vanguard Sun especially the last 2 dont they lie regularly? So why is their report more credible than others

These are the campaign promises a news media dated back to 2015 reported about Agbaje, PDP has always relied Ibo votes from time, so why did they not report this about other PDP candidates in lagos from Koro, to Dosunmu why is it only Agbaje?

May I ask some simple questions, kindly give an unbiased answer.
#1, are you an indigenous Lagosian? If yes, can you trace your paternal genealogy to any ancient indigenous Lagos family?
#2, please those infrastructures that Igbos met in Lagos were they developed by the Yorubas or the British?
#3, can you dispute the fact that Igbos have been living and contributing to lagos' development before Tinubu's father was born?
#4 if your ancestral boundary did not fall within Lagos territory what's the difference between you and any Igbo man in Lagos
Finally, is any of these trio lagosian, Tinubu, fashola and ambode?

1. Yes, I am an indigene of ibeju lekki
2. Both
3.no

I am pro Yoruba...we will get our mandate but definitely not from omo atounriwa....we are first Yoruba's, I rather deal with my kinsmen than with people who boast and claim to conquer you...the Yoruba's have been governors and none of the have called Lagos no man's land, other Nigerians have also contributed to the development of Lagos and none of them has called Lagos no man's land...
I can't stand someone who tells me my ancestral land is no man's land...you guys said it on forums, media and newspapers and APC are capitalising on this...learn to achieve silently....Igbo's won an election in Lagos and the next thing they could do is to spite their hosts, abuse them and tell them they have been conquered... Your folks started all this

Not everything said on campaigns are documented. Jimi is notorious for stoking tribal tension

Go to his twitter page on December 11 2018

On Lagos and the Igbos: The narrative that Lagos dislikes the Igbos is extremely false.

Oh yes, Lagos does not dislike the Igbos, your political establishment does.

This is Jimi on his official page playing tribal and ethnic card again accusing the political establishment(APC) of hating Ibos

That was an article by someone named Fabiyi Rotimi and not a news reportage. As much as every newspaper tell lies, the likes of PUNCH, Vanguard and SUN are more credible than a someone writing a blog post and claim whatever they like. I'm not disputing the fact that Agbaje and Lagos PDP have always relied heavily on Igbo voters and i don't have an idea of what they have told thi Igbo voters. But if we must believe anything, we must seen a concrete evidence. I'm too educated to fall for all this antics of politicians. In 2015 when the Oba of Lagos said he will throw Igbos into the lagoon, there was a video evidence for anyone to make an informed decision. So, if you want people to believe that Agbaje said he would elevate the Eze Ndigbo to the Oba of Lagos of status, you must provide proof.

You first claimed there was no source to the news of elevating Eze Ndigbo, I provided 1 now you are telling us its not credible.

I have provided proof, whether it satisfies you is another thing entirely.

Stoking tribal tension and working on Ibo voters insecurity is the modus operandi of Jimi Agbaje. PDP has always campaigned in Lagos and no one has accused any other candidate of stoking tribal sentiments except Jimi

The below was a tweet he made, Tell what is the purpose of that tweet?

What you provided is not a source let alone it being credible.

As for Jimi Agbaje, he's a politician and would use any means available to him to win. It doesn't mean he likes Igbos more or less than APC's candidates. As far as i'm concerned, the APC whether directly or indirectly have contributed more to this ethnic strife than Jimi Agbaje has ever done. Was Jimi Agbaje the one that force the Oba of Lagos to make that statement? Or was he the one that sent people to stop Igbo voters from exercising their franchise?

I watched Sanwoolu and Hamzat in an interview this morning and i'm leaning more towards them because i think they have more experience of running Lagos than Agbaje but let's not kid ourselves for one second that APC has not tried in more ways than not to whip up ethnic sentiments both at the federal and state level.

Funny enough sanwolu will win

You initially claimed there was no source, I provided you a source and it was that news of elevating Eze Ndigbo that triggered the Oba Akiolu reaction. So it was Jimi who started the ethnic

And you now claim APC has done more to the ethnic strife

Can you show me anything directly from Ambode or SanwoOlu that is on the level of this posted by Agbaje himself or you will say its not credible
