I’ll say this once. I deliberately refused to engage the comments about where my ancestral home is because it is irrelevant to the point I’ve been making since yesterday. The idea that a person who lives in Lagos and contributes to the economy of Lagos has no right to an opinion about how Lagos State is governed because they aren’t an indigene absolutely makes no sense. It is rooted in Bigotry and stupidity so I refuse to give it any legitimacy. Public infrastructure, sanitation, roads, drainage, transportation and the general quality of life affects everyone who lives here. You cannot expect people to contribute to a state’s economy and bear the consequences of its governance then tell them they have no business questioning how that state is run. I don’t need to prove where my ancestors come from to have a legitimate interest in the quality of governance in Lagos. Neither should anyone else. Kalas
