Nollywood actor, Yul Edochie, on Saturday said it is wrong to say Lagos is a no man’s land, adding that the Yoruba’s have been largely accommodating.
He added that it was a known fact that Igbos have also contributed to the state.
Making this known via his Instagram page, he said, “Lagos is a Yoruba state in Yoruba land. Imagine someone saying that Anambra is a no man land, That’s crap.
Anambra is an Igbo land. You can't come into someones land and tell the person its now a no man land na you dey find trouble.
“Nobody can deny the fact that the Igbos have contributed immensely to the development of Lagos. Other tribes have contributed in their own ways too.
And the Yoruba’s have been largely accommodating as well. It shouldn’t take away the fact that Lagos is a Yoruba land. We no dey drag ownership. Let's kill tribalism before it kills us."
