The fact that a cat can swim doesn’t make it a catfish, however, If we had to teach a fish to swim, it was never a fish.

If you put governance under the control of indigenes, do you think they would allow their ancestral homeland to be in shambles?
Kindly leave Lagos state governance for the indigenes. Any great thing you have in mind for Lagos state, a yàn dà, go do it in your ancestral homeland.
Calling him “Chinedu” his first name in 2019 and now his middle name in 2026 a bad thing to do?
What kind of psychological manipulation is this?
Okay, since you know what HC TW did for calling someone his biological name, tell us what he did that is not nice
This is a bilingual teaching method. It is a transitional approach commonly used in rural communities. It serves as a bridge that connects the official language with the pupils dialect during the teaching process.
One of the reasons we’re correcting this is that it’s false information, and he’ll likely pass this on to future generations.
People who gaslight often frame straightforward corrections as “hate”.
Note; this is why they tagged it “Lagos igbo” not “Igbo residents in Lagos”
No one is against any hangouts. What you need to know is that there are ethical standards, laws and boundaries, and these needs to be respected.
linguistically and socially “Lagos igbo” sounds like a sub ethnic in Lagos state. We should know our ethnicity limits.
Mind you, most of you carry the burden of “Lagos is no man’s land”.
In next 50 years if the name “Lagos Igbo” instead of “igbo residents in Lagos” continues, some may claim they are indigenous people of Lagos because they have been holding the hangout for years, and it may turn to festivals.
All I’m saying is indigenes wants to protect their heritage and everyone should respect their ethnic boundaries
Some of you tagged Lagos state as “No Man’s Land.” You are now gaslighting by calling it “a cosmopolitan state.” From this, you seem to think you should coin the phrase “Lagos Igbo.”
There is no established ethnic group called “Lagos Igbo.” You may have “Delta Igbo” (the Igbo speaking communities in Delta State), but “Lagos Igbo” (the Igbo speaking communities in Lagos) has never been a thing here, can never be a thing, will never be a thing.
We will continue to correct this intuition. We only have Igbo residents in Lagos.
@mc_lively_ the best you will do is to block me, which I’m okay with.
You actually used the word “Ibo” here, so what now changed within the last few months?
You want to microwave what you’ve burnt?
What is the emergency tribe activism all about?
“We live here, it’s our home, and we will always treat it as such”
Lol, some people’s village is your own home, you don’t have your own village to claim as your home?
We need to clear this, LAGOS STATE is our own VILLAGE.

Self rigorous assessment, affirming, empowering, enabling and giving shine to others is the most effective form of human development.
An ideology rooted in Humanistic Psychology
“We live here and it’s our home”
This actually shows how intimidated you are. Why are you feeling less of your homeland?
I want to be diplomatic with you, the best you can say is
“ we live here and it’s our adopted home”
You think your confrontational approach will rewrite homeland ownership?
Hospitality is different from ownership.
