After Lagos was made capital, igbos came in and bought lands from owners they didn't come to acquire empty lands. Every well-meaning Nigeria will know Igbos have played a major role in the development of Lagos state

  • I live in America. I have a land in Lagos and I had planned to start building. But I decided otherwise after seeing Yorubas in Lagos tell Igbos to go home during the last election. I have acquired a land in Owerri now and it is there that I will build a house. Any Igbo man or woman who is still planning on building a gigantic house in Lagos is stupid.

  • We spent the last 60 years fighting over ethnicity. "Igbo, Yoruba, Hausa, Fulani, Northerner, Southerner, etc" - but we spent almost no time planning economic development. Aren't we tired? When will we sit down to develop our country? And if we know we will never get along, let us divide this damn country once and for all and let us have peace.

There is a reason why the Yorubas are called the treacherous tribe in Nigeria, and they have been making that clear but we kept ignoring it.

  • The right thing now is not to ask Nigeria or other tribes to allow the Igbos to do business in Lagos. It is pandering to the whims and caprices of those jealous never-do-wells who will never change their hating attitude. What should be done now is to increase the tempo of moving Igbo businesses to Igboland.

Is it Ogun that is next to Lagos Lagos Lagos but still lacking or Osun or call the developed states Yorubas developed... When you see a tribe doing great respect and learn from them and not hate in every way... This tribal hate is too much that is the reason Nigeria so sick... If the Igbos should be on their own they will be a great country as the world can see and tell just like it is said "Anywhere you go in the world and don't find an Igbo man, leave"...

If this man was the igbo leader since there would have been a head way to their development. Igbos is the unity of Nigeria because they developed everywhere they stayed. In my view, there is no fairness in Nigeria and there will be never a fairness in Nigeria. I think the igbos should unite together to live this union called Nigeria. In the world to come this is how it will remain because, on less there's renegotiation to decide weither to stay or live. Finally, this great leader have done so well since assumed office and thanks to Arise media. My name is Stevephen Odin from London

Meanwhile, many more Igbo agreed with my position that we are all victims of these greedy politicians. No matter what anyone says, i will never hate any race or tribe. I've helped and received help from Hausa, Igbo and Yoruba. Nigeria will work. We need to come together. Lagos state government should also be careful on this matter of demolition.

  • The Igbos are our family and we love them with their entrepreneur spirit but there's a serious problems we are not addressing. For many years now Lagos is no longer a capital but still remain the financial hub with the ports. The Yorubas are very accommodating allowing their brothers to settle peacefully even though Lagos is no longer capital. The Igbos are now claiming that Lagos is no mans land where by disrespecting their host. They did this in South Africa, Ghana, Kenya etc. Please my Igbo family learn to respect your host so that they can live in harmony with you. All buildings demolished in Lagos must be compensated. The Igbos in Lagos in 1966 were not very many and they managed to return home during the British war on Biafra land between 67 and 70 and today they're all confused as to the roads leading to their ancestors houses. Please kill your poor spirit of domination, respect and live peacefully with your other ethnic brothers and sisters. Refrain from aggression because you're a long way from your ancestors home. Let's live in love and not in hate and foolish arrogant. God bless you all.
