Why do you think Igbos carry their fake products to sell in the North if they don't depend on other Nigerians to be successful. Make dem go open shop in Zambia.
And northerners buy d fake products knowing fully well that they are fake. Who is d fool here?

Being a senator does not mean you have common sense, we had yerima.

This man thinks its all about food i.e beans tomatoes, groundnut?


If North goes today, even with that food they have, they will suffer starvation. Why do northerners themselves starve, anyone who has been there know theres something called suffering.

Cant even to analyse this mans nonesense.

I have opined same in the past on this forum and was nearly eaten raw for it. The north has the capacity to meet most of their needs and aren't as dependent on forex as the south. They won't listen to the voice of reasoning.

Oil can be imported easily but you will no longer eat the proceeds of what you dont own.

Education is not ONLY about attending schools that teach western education or Islamic knowledge!

Education is the ability to know that non-Muslims are free to practice their religion within your immediate society

Education is the ability to know that a 9 year old girl is not ripe for marriage.

Education is the ability to know that prophet Mohammed centuries old teaching are not adequate for today's societies!

Ben Bruce is wrong, northern Nigeria (with the exception of the Christian middle belt) are uneducated!

Their lack of education is why they need Southern MONEY to sustain their useless unproductive masses whose only purpose is to eat, live, die and go meet Mohammed in Paradise!

there are more igbos in zambia that your tribe put together in west africa. Even the presidential plane of gambia was orjo uzor kalus plane. Igbos are in every west african state doing business and they are doing just fine. Moreover fake products are for people like you who can't afford original products so deal with it.

Going by the bold parts up there, how will they suffer starvation if they already food in excess? Is It your imaginary oil and its 'imaginary' value that's best imagined you want to trade in exchange for food? Stop being delusional man.

Go to UAE, virtually all their foods re imported but they ve the crude, can u even compare our economy with theirs..

The Pedophiles should keep their food..
their economy is not better than ours cause of the oil...the reason why our economy is not better than theirs is cos of one simple thing you and I are familiar with "corruption"

The social media senator himself.

However, I agree with him. The south believes because oil comes from the south and Nigeria depends on oil, the north is dependent on them.

Fact is, the average northerner does not even benefit from oil money, they mostly live off agriculture, business and menial jobs.

The so called southerners who claim to be feeding the nation have no input whatsoever to the economy other than the fact that the resources were naturally deposited in their region.
but when these same people who do not benefit decide to leave, we hear shouts of one Nigeria. The jokes on you dude!

Ben Bruce is 100% wrong when he says that the south depends on the north for food.

I don't know which south Bruce was talking about, but southeast zone can produce all over its food needs and have enough to export to its neighbours.

Please lets stop decieving ourselves..

I am a Southerner and I know what Rivers State is like when Riots block fod supply coming from the North to places like 'Fruit garden' in Kaduna street and more.

The moment those trucks dont arrive as scheduled every week, prices of food stuff goes very very high.

WHO IS THIS DULL HEAD SO THE SOUTHERNS DONT CONTRIBUTE TO THE ECONOMY,ITS DANGOTE THAT IS CARRYING NIGERIAN ECONOMY.
SHAME ON YOU.
THE FACT STILL REMAINS THAT THE NORTH IS PULLING US BACK. SIMPLE!

Now the north is pulling you back, not depending on you any more. Some of your southern states receive allocations three times that of three northern states put together but what have they done with it?

When the southern states that are half the population become developed, we can accept your position. But as it is, some northern states are still far better than some southern states. FACT

In equally the same way, after selling agricultural produce, the north could buy crude oil from Niger or any African neighours

we are not saying you are dependent on our oil but on the proceeds of our oil. Is that hard for u to understand. Ok can your people be sharing the proceeds from their farm products among Nigerian states?
