I don't even think a masquerade can travel to Lagos from Oyo, Ondo or Ekiti State. Or from Ekiti to Osun. To do what na?

These things are very localised in Yorubaland.

So localised that even within a big town, an Egungun will not go to another part of town that is not within his territory because that may cause trouble with the Egungun families in those other parts.

Some things are just best left alone.


Not strictly true for your first paragraph, every other thing is spot on though.

Igunnuko's are a Tàpá/Egba thing. Wherever their followers settle en-masse in other Yoruba places, they have Igunnuko shrines and they carry out their parade (or whatever they are called) within that locality.

I also believe that in the event of a potential clash with local masquerade parade days, the hosts get precedence.

Folks, let's call this situation what it is, Ndi Yoruba are flexing their muscles as a fallout from a lot of (needless) Ndigbo goading since the last elections.

That's OK too,

Honestly the last election caused a lot of damage to the relationship between the yorubas and the igbos. Before now, the yorubas do not care if igbo man is Eze in Lagos, or masquerade of nnewi coming to Lagos or igbos appointed commissioners all of a sudden the yorubas are now becoming hostile to anything igbo. I would say the igbos are the architect of whatever the yorubas of Lagos are dishing out to them right now.
For peace to reign, let everyone stay in their regions and perform traditional masquerade dance as they like. It is excesses taking the gods of a region to a different region. The gods of the second region will be angry.
Before we start having sango/ogún fighting with amadioha
it was d last election... They couldn't separate the Yoruba people from tinubu.... They started abusing d yorubas claiming tinubu won the election because of the yorubas... Tinubu lost in his home state osun and also in his territory lagos... He won because people like obi left Atiku.... Although I see all major 3 candidates as the same but after showing their true colour, I'll definitely vote for my tribe in d next election.... Shey dem give obi 100% vote na and dem still dey abuse south west... No wahala

Igbo masquerades perform all over the world. Read this news very well. Only Ajofia was stopped from coming to Lagos because of an incititing video, others will be there

The problem with people like you is that you always have contrary opinion even when such opinion is stupid! Do you even have any idea what level of intelligence work went into this by the police before coming out to issue that statement banning the Igbo masquerade in Lagos? Some of you from that tiny ,erosion-ravaged land of primitive,forest-dwelling ancestors won't stop spewing gibberish until you create a very serious problem for your fellow igbos in Lagos and in other parts of Yoruba land.

Let me give you a hint,you may or may not believe it;some Yoruba youths are looking for any slight opportunity to deal ruthlessly with the igbos in Yoruba land, especially here in Lagos. Igbos are no longer welcome in Yoruba land, it's unfortunate that some of you can't read the handwriting on the wall! The last elections and the #EndSARS protests have changed, or should I say, irreparably damaged, the relationship between the Yoruba and the Igbo. The truth is that many Yorubas now see the Igbos as enemies who must be kept at arm's length. Take it or leave it;our eyes are on you in every part of Yoruba land,Lagos especially. If you guys mistakenly step out of line,you'll be dealt with. The Police know that for a fact and that's why they quickly stepped- in in this case.

May be it's true that "Igbo masquerades perform all over the world",but it will be in your own best interest not to bring them to any part of Yoruba land - the consequences will be grave!

Oga, what the guy said is entirely true. In my hometown, one part celebrate Oro, while the other part use masquerade during their annual festival. The Masquerade doesn't cross to the other side of Town and normal activities goes on, on the other side while the Oro do their thing.
And you are comparing Igunu to this Ajofia? Seriously? I mean, we've had centuries of relationship with the Nupe people and there have been cultural exchanges between the two tribes. Same thing can't be said about the igbos

If not for the fact that you are also a tribalist why did you not say that "as long as Yoruba egungun" are allowed to parade in Anambra?
If dem born una well make una bring the masquerade! The things you Igbos will never allow on your land you want to do it on other people's land, even land you will not sell to non indigens in most Igbo land.

You IGBOS are the ones goading and crying since the last elections. Hausas and other tribes also contested in the election and they have all moved on except Igbos. Insulting Yorubas here are there because majority did not Obi as if you people ed Tinubu or as if it is by force to Obi. A lot of Yorubas even voted Obi yet you bunch of ungrateful tribe will still insult all Yorubas collectively.
Tell me how can winners be the ones goading ? Someone won an election and he is still one goading! And you think that you are making sense!
If dem born una well make una bring the masquerade to Lagos! As if you people can allow other tribes to do such on Igbo land!
