"@yuledochie until you tell me who told you that igbos claim Lagos is no man’s land, because you said igbos should stop saying so, and some Yoruba applauded you. Now I want to ask , who says so, where, when and how? On TV or in Newspaper? Because you want to sound important and wise, now you have seen the result, Yul. Who among the igbos you heard from saying lagos is no man’s land?"

@cullinzpatrick:

"@yuledochie why did you break @mayyuledochie heart since you claim to know that life is short and we should make eachother happy atleast in this life time?"

@misshawry:

"I don’t understand your person… @yuledochie have you spoken up about the hatred shown towards the Igbo’s? Have you condemned it as it should be? You are a two faced man. Your kind is never true and genuine."
