The Itsekiri language

Do you really think Peter Obi as president would have gotten the Nigeria tax act passed.? Do you think Peter Obi as president would have gotten LGA autonomy ?. Do you think Peter Obi as president would have started the process of fiscal federalism ( that is even if he is ideologically on the same page )?. Do you think Peter Obi as president would have gotten state police bill over the line ?. These bills required elite political maneuvering and clout, one that Peter struggles with. That you are President doesn’t automatically confer the skills required for governing. Worthy note is that this administration has assented to over 60 bills within 3 years.

To the Igbo folks on my TL, why? There is something that has been bothering me for a long time, and I believe it is time to speak about it openly and honestly. For years, many Nigerians have heard the phrase "Lagos is no man's land" propagating from red cap wearing profiles. Every election cycle, every major political disagreement, every ethnic controversy seems to bring this conversation back again. My question is simple, why? Why is it considered wise to repeatedly make divisive statements that many of your hosts perceive as dismissive of their history, identity, and attachment to a place they call home? Nobody disputes the fact that Lagos has benefited from the hard work, investments, creativity, and enterprise of people from every corner of Nigeria. The Igbo community, in particular, has contributed immensely to the growth and prosperity of Lagos. That contribution deserves recognition and respect. But contribution and ownership are not the same thing. When people open their cities, communities, and opportunities to you, should the response be rhetoric that unsettles them? This is not a Lagos-only conversation. We saw similar tensions emerge in South Africa. Many of us mocked South Africans when controversies arose over traditional authority structures and claims of influence by immigrant communities. We called them backward. We called them xenophobic. We called them ignorant. But let us ask ourselves honestly, was it wise to provoke people in ways that fed their fears and insecurities? Was it wise to install an Igbo king in KuGompo? Whether those fears were justified or not, did confrontation solve anything? Now we are back here again because of another controversial statement. Another round of anger. Another round of ethnic arguments. Another round of Nigerians attacking each other. And I find myself asking, when will this end? When will the voices that constantly provoke and antagonize learn that coexistence requires sensitivity? When will the reasonable and thoughtful members of the community begin to challenge the loud and arrogant voices that keep dragging everyone into unnecessary conflict? When will actual well meaning Igbos start to call out their divisive brothers? Before anyone misunderstands me, let me be clear. No tribe is entirely good. No tribe is entirely bad. Every ethnic group has its saints and its troublemakers. But when the loudest voices are also the most provocative, they eventually become the face outsiders see. Fair or unfair, perception becomes reality. That is why silence from the sensible majority is dangerous. If the loudest people continually make statements that create resentment, and nobody within the community pushes back, outsiders begin to assume those voices represent everyone. Nigeria already has enough problems. Our economy is struggling. Our young people are leaving. Our institutions are weak. The last thing we need is another generation growing up convinced that they should view their fellow Nigerians through the lens of ethnic suspicion. The truth is that millions of Igbo people and millions of Yoruba people live, work, build businesses, raise families, and support each other every day without conflict. That reality should be strengthened, not undermined. So I ask this not in anger but in genuine concern: Can we stop saying things that unnecessarily provoke our hosts wherever we go? Can we stop treating every disagreement as a contest for dominance? Can we learn that respect is not weakness, and sensitivity is not surrender? Because in the end, no community wins when mutual trust is destroyed. We all lose. And Nigeria loses most of all. I'm tired.

Let’s clear the air once and for all. This delusional garbage the subhumans from the South East have been peddling that they developed Lagos is nothing but a shameless lie. A cheap myth cooked up in their empty television-shaped heads and repeated so often they’ve started believing their own propaganda. For decades, Yoruba liberalism and tolerance made us look away while they spewed this rubbish, we tolerated the nonsense for too long, the truth is simple and brutal: We built the Igbos. We created the economic magnet that keeps them flooding into the South West like locusts, that’s why they abandon their own region and swarm here in droves. If they built something worthwhile, it would be Yorubas migrating to the East begging for scraps. But they didn’t. They couldn’t. And they know it. We’re done being polite. We will speak the raw, unfiltered truth about the toxic lies your parents and uncles have been feeding you since birth.

Deleting the tweet won’t clean up the problem you have stirred up for ibos in Lagos @illBlissGoretti You were definitely begged to delete it! Deep down you know you wouldn’t have! You said it with ur full chest! When table turns around for ibos in Lagos, I will be the first to tell you!🫡

As long as Palace Road stretches, only one single plot has ever been sold to an Igbo man. Before the deal was sealed, he was clearly given the condition that the land would be on a 99-year lease. He agreed without complaints. After 99 years, the land reverts fully to the owner, and it will be left for the family to decide whether to renew or not. That Igbo man is genuinely one of the few good ones. All these unfortunate noise makers on this platform are just displaying their ignorance. The majority of you are busy renting duplexes and coughing out ₦15 million and above every year to Yoruba landlords. You guys are nothing but lousy, headless subhumans.

Why can't Igbo build the South East ? Are the Igbo people in South East fake Igbo ?

ATTENTION!!! Many social media accounts are now pretending to be Yoruba online. A lot of them are not Yoruba they are other tribes pretending to be Yoruba. Man says

This is not a coincidence. This is a pattern. The question now is: when will Igbo leaders address the crisis of their people dominating international crime statistics? Or will they continue to blame marginalisation while their sons fill prisons across the globe?

Because your tribes are the only ones always disrespecting people's land and heritage when welcomed with open arms, just like what you guys are doing to the Yorubas. Well, you can only display this level of disrespect to the Yorubas while still living in their land. You dare not try this kind of disrespect towards the Northerners. Secondly, your people are not even among the top two investors in Lagos State. This rhetoric is why South Africans and other countries are chasing us from their land. Unfortunately, they cannot differentiate other Nigerians from the main tribes destroying their country while also disrespecting their culture.

If you read history, you will know that Igbos are Sub! The first set of Igbo people to migrate from the East to Lagos were Osu outcasts in 1923. The Osus are people historically owned by deities and are therefore considered to be a "living sacrifice", an outcast, untouchable and subhuman. This is the reason why they lack respect, dignity , sympathy and empathy.

Igbos own all the land in Lagos and are renting them back to indigenes — Rapper IllBliss brags

Igbos have contributed to the development of Lagos, yes, just like every other tribe; But Lagos has also given back to the Igbos who reside there. If the state wasn't so welcoming and profitable, people won't be relocating there in large numbers. Facts! That said, the state belongs to the Yorubas 100%, point blank period; It is located in the South-West making it geographically a Yoruba Land, and historically speaking it is also a Yoruba land. Lagos doesn't even share borders with the South-East so the claim of ownership is invalid. Now Illbliss asks "why is it always a problem when it's the igbos?" and that's a good question; The anwser is quite simple, people like him make it an issue by trying to claim Lagos forgetting that it is not in their rights to do so. You can't be loud and disrespectful and expect positive energy.

BREAKING: Amotekun Arrests 97 Suspects, Intercepts Groups Moving into Ondo Forests with Household Items The Ondo State Security Network, Amotekun, has arrested 97 suspects across the state in a major security operation targeting kidnapping, armed robbery, vehicle theft, and violations of the anti-open grazing law . Speaking during the parade of suspects at the agency’s headquarters in Alagbaka, Akure, Amotekun Commander Akogun Adetunji Adeleye raised alarm over a fresh movement of people from northern parts of the country into forest communities in the state . Security operatives intercepted several groups of people, including women of different ages, travelling into forests with household items such as bedding, cooking utensils, mortars, and pestles . Among those paraded were individuals arrested in communities including Ikare, Kajola, Akure, Ilu-Abo, Akure North, Murewo, and Ojoma Camp for alleged involvement in kidnapping and armed robbery activities . Adeleye also revealed that two suspects arrested in Akure allegedly posed as mentally ill persons to gather intelligence for criminal groups. The suspects reportedly confessed to receiving payments for supplying information to kidnappers and even obtained hospital cards to support their disguise . The commander disclosed that operatives dismantled a robbery syndicate known for disguising themselves as visitors before attacking residents, forcing victims to transfer money electronically and stealing their vehicles . He cited a case where a man who reportedly requested only two labourers later received 51 additional persons who moved into a forest area with their belongings . Another group of 16 persons was intercepted heading towards the Ose-Owo forest corridor, an area that has witnessed security concerns in recent years . Adeleye attributed the successes to collaboration between Amotekun, the Nigeria Police Force, the Department of State Services, and the Nigerian Army . On the fate of the suspects, Adeleye said individuals found without criminal links would be returned to their states of origin in collaboration with community leaders, while those connected to criminal activities would be prosecuted .

Domination is in their DNA , They want to make Lagos theirs, Lagosians should resist them, Ghanians resisted , South Africa resisted, FCT are resisting , even Dubai resisted. Irony is you cannot get one foot of land in their states

Ibo crime culture. A case study.

If Ethiopians are hostile towards Nigerians in general, we now know the ethnic group that caused it.

Before tomorrow evening, the script will change: cries of marginalization, claims of hatred, and the familiar victim narrative. Sadly, some of our own Yoruba “but” crowd will line up behind it. 🚶🏿‍♂️

“Tomorrow, I am going to Abuja and I will come back with Buhari’s head.” Look at ibo father , mothers , grandparents, uncles aunties. Just look at them. Smh

It seems the only thing that scares Igbo wannabe expansionist is Ronu 🤔
