Politics aside the bill make a lot sense

He makes sense na u nor think am deeply.. Kalu reasoned as an Igbo man that has businesses all over naija

Nefort:

How do you expect the natives to be wiped? The natives will always be very much higher in population so how exactly will that wipe out happen? You mean Yorubas will go and wipe out the Igbos in the east and the Igbos will go and wipe out the Yorubas in the west? Does that make sense to you? Some of you just talk without using your brains.

you are very naive, go and check wether Yoruba land or Igbo land, there are areas where even Yoruba or Igbo men don't venture into again, the place is completely occupied by Fulanis and hausas, do you think it will be like that in the next 20 years? How many kids will you have in you life time? Highest 3 or 4 kids for the average family in the south. The average in the North is 15 to 20 kids and they are all pushed towards the south. Do some research bro. Am sure some people will be saying the same thing you are saying some 50 years ago.

The whole state of origin concept is archaic.

This is a welcome development. It will increase integration and development of host communities even better because they will feel more connected to it. Anything that would bring about a progressive Nigeria, i am open for it.

The indigene bill has nothing to do with tribe. It refers strictly to state of residence and spousal relationship with and indigene of a STATE.

You should be able to see through the paranoia of these Yorubas from outside Lagos. They don't care about Akure, Ekiti, Ogbomosho etc. They just don't want to lose Lagos or have serious competition with people of other tribes born and raised in Lagos.

Lagos is what they are crying about. Not the Yoruba tribe. Read between the lines.

Werey but Una wants go marry white turn citizens abroad... Na why God dey punish Una. The OP na mumu fear of the Igbo man. Shebi Una say Igbo mo get billionaires.

Nefort:

The bill makes sense and tribalists are the ones who are against it. It will actually help to eliminate tribalism in the long run.

Please, can you expantiate on why you believe this bill will succeed in killing tribalism in Nigeria.

DMerciful:
You cannot want Nigeria to remain as one country without wanting one Nigeria. They're mutually exclusive!

Yoruba ronus, it's either Nigeria stay as one country where every citizen has equal rights or Nigeria disintegrate and every go to their ethnic nationality as a small independent country

Then Nigeria should disintegrate.

If that is what you are concerned about then I am sorry to tell you that even if that bill doesn't it wouldn't stop the Fulanis from using surplus birth to populate the south. It will happen gradually over many years even without the bill. Same way immigrants will populate western countries if the birth rate in western countries remains low.

TAKE-TINUBU AKPABIO KEKERE EKUN, PLEASE ADOPT FAPRES TO OUR 36 CONSTITUTIONAL STATES AND CTC TRFG SINE DIE.

Goodnewsforlife:
I pray the bill is ed n I can bet in d next 10 years Igbos will come back crying that it should b reversed.

They are myopic that they are eyeing Lagos not knowing fulanis are eyeing their region

I can bet in d next 10 years all d fulanis in niger Republic will relocate to south east n one uncircumcised aboki from futa jalon will sponsor one of them n then we will have danjuma Umar as governor of anambara

That time Igbos won't b governor in Lagos n they would have lost their region

Myopic people

Baba even a Fulani man can't say this.
Exempt Lagos from the bill and it will scale through

DMerciful:
It concerns him because Lagos was built with Nigerian resources and as such Lagos belongs to all Nigerians equally

na envy and jealousy go kill this one las las…..Lagos was built with Nigeria resources but your cursed barren land was built with your father’s money right? ;

This going about forcing yourself on people who don’t want you, if he pain you too much carry knife come share am equally🤣🤣🤣

Better focus on developing your 5plot of potopoto land, because non of our land will be annexed by primitive Osu cave men from Osu land, btw proudly lagos

T9ksy:

It will significantly reduce tribalism because people will be encouraged to settle outside their ancestral lands without the fear of being second class residents. It encourages Nigerians to mix up, and the more we mix up the more we get comfortable with each other and realize focusing on tribal differences is just pointless.

your tongue is deceiving you...

you claim you want equal rights but in truth and reality you don't want equal rights what you want is equal privileges..

you already have equal rights... you just don't have equal privileges...

the only way to get equal or superior privileges is by taking political power from the indigenes and this is you, Senator Kalu's and the f:ula:nis main goal..

why do you want to settle outside your ancestral land where you are already 1st class citizens and go to where you will always be 2nd class citizens.

people will always be 2nd class citizens where they don't control the politics and are not the majority..

you cannot force the majority to treat you as 1st class citizens unless you control the politics of that state or use a higher authority like Kalu is doing now to try to change the laws which means there's no difference between you, Kalu and killer herd:smen terrorists....

Armaggedon:
they should vote in their state of origin but pay tax in their state of residence. clowns!

Plus resources from their state of origin Should be used to feed ppl indigenous to their state of residence...😂 Real clowns....

The identity of the one sponsoring the bill is even bizarre.

codemaniacs:


In case you have not noticed it..

All races in the world are fighting for SURVIVAL OF THE FITTEST whether it is a:rabs, e:uropeans, A:sians, the different African races in Africa that you guys belittle by calling them "tribes" e.t.c..

What you call tribalism is patriotism and nationalism to the people you are accusing of tribalism and you are only calling them tribalists because they do not the political candidate you and that makes you the true tribalist..

Again, SURVIVAL OF THE FITTEST means it is foolish of Yorubas to vote an anti-yoruba person and someone who has anti-yoruba hatred and sentiments..

You just said nonsense. You think I am not old enough to identify tribalism when I see it?

hope u know fulanis have sacked 28 villages in Enugu

Ojiofor:
The writer said non indigenes should vote only in their states of origin...
Then why are Tinubu's from other Yoruba states ruling Lagos state or it does not apply to Lagos?

That’s because he (Tinubu) hails from one of the distinct cultural groups (the Yoruba group) the writer is talking about and this very group doesn’t discriminate against themselves; once you’re Yoruba, the State you come from becomes secondary (I know you’re surprised because no other region in Nigeria has this civility) . It’s not that Tinubu went to govern another state belonging to an entirely different cultural group. A Yoruba woman from Oyo marrying another Yoruba man from Benin republic (Egun) doesn’t take away her being Yoruba

Wait which land are you referring to ? Am sure you talking about Yoruba land n not Lagos
Cos Lagos is clearly gone to the IGBOS
The IGBOS have annexed Lagos without shooting a single bullet....

the same tribalism that is making you overlook and turn a blind eye to the under-development of your ancestral lands caused by politicians you share the same tribe with is what you are accusing others that are not the same tribe as you...

go and call out your politicians that are stealing and under-developing your ancestral lands that is making you to eye other peoples ancestral land who have hard working politicians who progressing and developing their own ancestral lands..

since you cannot call out your own tribes politicians for corruption and under-development then you are a tribalist and a hypocrite.

infact you are a hypocrite and tribalist...

What sort of question is that in bold? You think people decide to settle somewhere else without good reasons? It's like asking Nigerians why they want to japa and become immigrants somewhere else.

Nigerians japa because they want to earn a better currency than the Naira..

the whole of Nigeria uses Naira...

so why would a Nigerian want to leave their ancestral land where they are already earning in Naira to another person's ancestral land where that land is also using the same Naira..

What's the population of the yorubas residing in SE? In there own case, there population here might even be more than they have in their region. Hence, the bill needs to be stopped. Na style them wan take takeover our land.

Armaggedon:

And during census they want them to be counted in their states of residence but they can not vote or be voted for🤣

What sort of stupid assumption is that? I haven't even told you where I came from and you are actually assuming my ancestral lands is underdeveloped. And what suggests to you that I am "eyeing" other people's lands?

you don't have to tell where you come from before I know you come from an under developed land

if your ancestral land is developed then you would not be eyeing other people's lands...

go and call out your own politicians and develop your ancestral lands..

stop been covetous and greedy..

If you are asking that part in bold then I have to stop talking to you because I can see you are not smart enough and worth my time. So it didn't occur to you that people can have investments that can thrive beter in a region outside their ancestral lands which will necessitate their relocation to the region to monitor their investments?

A business that thrives outside of your ancestral land within the same country is not a stable business unless you are in same social circles as those who control the politics of that state....
