U kids brings sentiment in2 every issues Y?u prefer we import rice frm thailand with scarce $$ that synegise & produce d rice here,do u know d million of tonne of rice lagos population comsumed daily?

Is Lagos running a welfare state, where the government provides communal meals for people? So what is the point?

The rest have failed to provide any logical/cerebral argument to back the initiative up. Perhaps you can help them out. I await ya reply, the smart ancient one lol.

This is a business venture but a terrible one, end of. The state has no business getting involved, period.

Shym3xx:


- Financial sector (this sector alone can make Lagos richer than Nigeria).

- Industries.

- Ports.

- Tourism (Lagos has one of the most amazing landscapes on the planet and Eko Atlantic can also become a mini-Dubai).

- Taxes

^^^Just focus on these - with the financial sector as a nucleus and the identity.

OK. But the LASG have been exploring these potentials na...

Shym3xx:
I honestly don't know where they pluck these terrible and myopic leaders from.

What's Lagos' business with non-lucrative rice plant gazillion of mile away, when it can focus of its industries and continue to look for ways to maximise revenue from there? Must these people always tag along in stupidity?

Even if you're interested in agriculture, why not stay in the SW? This is the type of mentality that messed up Lagos.

Anyway, this is what happens when a glutton and an obese guy becomes a governor cos all he'll care about is food.

lagos indegenes eat rice, lagos cannot produce the rice it's indegenes need.

what will a sensible man do , he will get rice from where rice is being produced.
what will a sensible man with economic sense to , he will not only get the rice from where it is being produced , he will also participate in its production so as to have some level of control over its quantity, quality , cost and price!
that's what lagos is doing.

lagos cares about its people, so governance is not only about making money .

May God open their eyes of understanding before its too late! No state is self sufficient!

QuotaSystem:
Dangote is building a Petro-chemical plant in Lagos (SW)...

Lagos is building a Rice Plant in Kebbi(NW)....

Meanwhile some people are bombing themselves back into the 19th century....and some others are sacrificing themselves to stop one Nigeria.

Diversification in action. The day will soon break.

Lmao @ this logic.

So Lagos is a country on its own and currently those involved in production of rice are denying Lagos, yes? Or that even without this jamboree they will always target Lagos before any other part of the country due to the population and market?

Oh, while he is at it, he can invest in Fulanis and their cows. And spread its tentacles all over all staple foods produced in Nigeria cos it is a country within Nigeria and it has to feed its people looool. You lot and amala logic lol.

Shym3xx:


Bitumen is largely untapped in Nigeria. Solid minerals are largely untapped in Nigeria. Etc. So, I guess Lagos also need to invest in states with these untapped resources as well, no? That's the logic there.

The state has no business building rice plants in Kebbi - there are other things they can do to foster inter-state collaborations. They can start with exchanging ideas about governance; inter-state transportation; lobbying to open branches of investments domiciled in one state, in the other etc. Let private businessmen handle that and focus on ya own potentials as a state.

Also, based on the way Nigeria is structured - no state can influence any other state on national issues. Everything happens based on bloc, and ethnic/party/religious lines.

Lagos should worry about Lagos and let Kebbi worry about Kebbi.

bitumen and solid minerals are strictly under the federal govt, also lagos does not have the technology to go into such things.

lagos is not worried about kebbi , lagos is worried about its people getting good quality, affordable rice that they wunt need to source for dollars to get. that is part of the functions of a good government.
so in short, lagos is helping kebbi to help lagos.

lagos does not have control over those supplying lagos rice. This move ensures has that!
With this move ,lagos can be a major participant in the price of rice lagos until market forces gains a foothold.
It is not a jamboree, it makes perfect business, economic, developmental sense to invest and control the things your people need.

Oh, while he is at it, he can invest in Fulanis and their cows. And spread its tentacles all over all staple foods produced in Nigeria cos it is a country within Nigeria and it has to feed its people looool. You lot and amala logic lol.

nothing stops him from doing that , to ensure lagosians have good quality, cheaper meat for its people. I can bet eko meat is already considering that option.
so that it's people will not use all their money to buy food.
lagos is already a country within Nigeria, it sets the pace on how things will later be done in the country, hope you've not forgotten it's the 4th largest economy in Africa .

it is the same ignorance that caused him to refer to the oil producing SE/SS as 5%, the same ignorance causing him to ignore SE in his appointments and the same ignorance that has occasioned the impending red economy.
Lesson here is, the IGNORANT must never be in leadership positions.
The land in contention belongs to SE/SS and the have every right to claim their birth rtight and GOD will help them out of the many years of rape and cheating this has nothing to do with syria...only one day is required for truth to upturn 1000 years of lies and injustice.... BEG the SS/SE don't threaten them ..

So, in essence, you are saying a state well positioned like Lagos, should get involved in selling agricultural produce, yes?

Oh, while it is at it, it can open massive communal eateries everywhere to feed its population and become a proper stomach infrastructure PLC looooooooool.

This is just redundant...you obviously need more exposure.

it's not selling, it's providing agricultural products to its people by being involved in the business end of the process.
as at the moment, business men are not involved enough to provide enough for the people, to their in nothing wrong for the government to close that gap!
A state well positioned like Lagos should add sustenance of its people to its obligations.
lagos has demostrated to you that this involvement in agriculture is not the only thing it's doing!

Oh, while it is at it, it can open massive communal eateries everywhere to feed its population and become a proper stomach infrastructure PLC looooooooool.

lagos already has the market, located in many areas of the state, what it should ensure is that only good ,edible and cheap products get to those markets.

Guy, u don't always get what u want! GEJ's govt was d best time to break away, dat govt was incredible accommodating. But, they were all feeding so fat they forgot their birthright.

Well, PMB's govt is d last govt to give in to any sort of ....

Life has a way of smirking at human efforts, sic PMB's govt want to make a change, but no funds to finance it; IPOB/NDA want independence, which is practically unacceptable under a PMB lead govt; GEJ's govt was spendthrift, yet d funds didn't dry up, and when it dried up, he lost re-election gallantly! The country will rather end up ungovernable than be splitted, under PMB!

Your argument keeps getting more redundant with every post you make and it will always come down to the fact that this ludicrous jamboree is a business venture. And the question is: why does Lagos, that is yet to maximise the massive potentials it has, getting entangled with more layers of junk? The whole adventure doesn't even make any sense whatsoever based on how Nigeria is structured. Lagos would be well served by focusing on what it already has at its disposal.

Since you can read - you can look at megacities like London, New York, Paris, Hong Kong etc. like I've cited numerous times on this thread and see the perfect model for Lagos.

But you are not happy either. Anything that is not right will give way when the right show it self. Plundering of resources, Just like mtn browsing cheats it will come to an end when the owner becomes alive to his responsibility .

delman88:


I wonder when kids like you will mature... does lagos have the type of ground to grow rice? Think before you talk.

have you been to all part of lagos? who told you there is no land in lagos for farming? besides, what about other western states? who told you there is no land in the west? kids like you lack home training. besides, did i insult you? go back to your parent and let them teach you how to talk to people.

calaway:


all them lovely sky scrappers in lagos and beautiful long brigdes where built with cocoa money abi.. keep fooling your self. August is when you will begin to feel the pangs of the bombing done so far brace up cos it will not be funny ... the shot callers are angry

May shanpono destroy you and your likes if you don't begin the so called destruction of Nigeria asap . We want you ungrateful leeches off our land . Let's see who's going to die of hunger . The same way your folks lost out in the power game and subsequently resorted to killing political and military leaders of other ethnic groups in the first republic. Try anything funny this time around and 1967 would be a child's play !!

OK IM JUST GONNA IGNORE YOU AND YA SLAVE MENTALITY

You are not making sense ,its better Lagos state buys the already prepared rice than to build factory that kebbi people will say they own someday!

Can't it work in lagos ? Answer that first

can Nigeria claim mtn base stations, or how many Ibo men business will be claimed in Lagos. your paranoid mentality will continue to keep you down and you will never move forward. abi why you no claim your landlord house

Being right is relative. Most times, in all relationships, u av to abandon ur 'right' position for peace to reign. I'm definitely not happy, I've got kids to think of, yet ....

I've always hated cheats, they generally pack-up when u need them most. Also, life is too short and hard to spend any part of it in prolonged conflict/s.

Their weapons will neva be enough against a determined Nigeria. What they're relying on right now are stored stocks, what happens when they start running out? U can ask BH. Whatever battle that comes up, will be localized. A whole region would be devastated by war, and like biafra, they'll feel 2nd class for a long time to come.

If u've noticed, d govt isn't panicking, yet. They seem to be taking their time to organize. The creeks are too quiet for a country loosing its major source of income. Apart from a few military buffoons(5 NDA arrested), d message from d military has been subdued. Something is up, and I'm waiting for it to play out!

Even though you know it wrong.. You can't take you eyes off the oil.... Believe me what you are feeling is even stronger in Buhari remember 2 months ago he said I will crush NDA like I crushed bh and one month ago the military said they will be no negotiations with NDA but many #BOOM later Buhari is singing a new song looking to implement yar adua agreement and negotiate with NDA(my guys) remember Britain and USA have washed their hands clean of any military action against the NDA and asked your hero to talk with the strong niggas....unlike 1966 when they askd and armed Nigeria to fight biafra...
The only thing you are waiting for is the hunger and disorganization that will hit Nigeria by August when the effect of the booms will take a strong hold on you reality...then you will beg the real lords and owners of Nigeria. Brace ur self cos the ride is about to get rough for a change must manifest. FREEDOM IS A GOD GIVEN RIGHT.
