Beaf , Nigeria Oil Was Use To Build Abuja And Not Lagos Or Yorubaland by becomrich15: 7:39pm On Nov 08, 2009
Nigeria oil was use to build Abuja and not lagos or yorubaland

so please stop claim they spent money on lagos. between 1960 to 1970. we had region goverment which feed for themself. AND within 1960 to 1970 nigeria had little to no oil.

The capital of nigeria was moved to abuja in 1976. And since 1976. nigeria have focus all of  its oil wealth on abuja. So since 1976 to 2009, making 33 years. nigeria have spent all of his oil wealth on abuja. And only in 6 years in lagos. Go round lagos and tell us what does the federal govt own in lagos. Dodan barrack, national art theater, stadium, 3rd mainland bridge, oshodi road,

Carter Bridge was never built by the federal govt, carter bridge was built in 1901 and in 1960 was redesigned and built.

Eko-Bridge was built between 1965-1968.
university of lagos by 1962

university of ife 1962

university of Ibadan 1948

Liberty stadium ibadan

Ikoyi was built by white people.

Apapa was built by white people

Railyway was built by white people.


most of the road, you think were federal were not build by the federal govt of nigeria. so please verify history before written nonsense on the internet.

Not up to 2% of the industries in yorubaland had anything to do with the federal govt. Let nigeria name the company they built.


The only other thing by the federal govt in Yorubaland apart from Dodan barrack, national art theater, nation stadium, 3rd mainland bridge, oshodi road, is the lagos to Benin road and lagos to ibadan road and ibadan to ife road.

Point to the city of town where the federal govt built a refinery or anything. Of the federal govt build university, only 3 of the 27 was built by the federal govt of nigeria from your oil money.  the university are Akure,Abeokuta and ilorin  .   3 (11%) out of 27. 

And since 1976. nigeria have focus all of  its oil wealth on abuja. So since 1976 to 2009, making 33 years. Get your fact right.

So stop talking of your oil money doing anything in lagos or yorubaland. From 1976 to 2009 , your oil money have gone to developing the north and abuja. You can come and remove dodan barrack and the national art theater, nation stadium. and see if it means a different.

We have been living since 1976 like a people without a federal govt. So what different does it make . from 1960 to 1970 nigeria had little of no oil money. Go find out your information. we had a civil war.

Where was the capital of Lagos when Gowon made the infamous statement that Nigeria was so rich that it didn't know what to do with its money? How many bridges did IBB construct in Lagos? Who built Tafa Balewa Square, Lagos Badagry expressway, Agege motorway (Lagos Abeokuta)? all the federal ministry and parastatal buildings that adorn Lagos landscape, Nigerian law school, Lagos airport, Lagos seaport, Festac town, Satellite town, etc? I dey go come.

Re: Beaf , Nigeria Oil Was Use To Build Abuja And Not Lagos Or Yorubaland by becomrich15: 8:40pm On Nov 08, 2009
Gowon made that statement between 1970 to 1976. not before the 70's

Tafawa Balewa Square was called race course and was built by white people. They use to play polo, ruby etc game and race and take horse bite

Badagry expressway is own by the lagos govt, never was built by Gowon. those road network where mostly by  sir Bolaji Johnson.

Lagos seaport by white people. only extension.


The only bridge IBB build, which I already list before was 3rd main bridge.

What you must see is before 1970. or what white people build. Go ask your father. 

Go to the north and abuja and see what they use the oil money for. Beaf, i cant tell you history. Most oil money was spent in the north.  If I am teling a lie. I would come back and list them.  So stop telling people lies on the internet.

FINBARR'S COLLEGE
King's College Lagos

So nearly all the things you assume your oil money built, was built either by us or white people.
Re: Beaf , Nigeria Oil Was Use To Build Abuja And Not Lagos Or Yorubaland by becomrich15: 9:24pm On Nov 08, 2009

i have pity for people who engage in lies upon lies.look for nigerian budget allocation from 1970 till date and you would clearly see where the bulk of money was used.lagos and abuja of course.it is wicked for someone to come out and deny the obvious.you should be sorry for your false claims.

@bolded.lagos is not yorubaland.stop deceiving yourself.ibadan,abeokuta,ife,ikirun,ifewara,oyo,ede,owo,ilesa,osogbo,ogbomosho,ijebu ode,ado ekiti,ore etc are nothing but large villages full of bungalows with rusted roof begging for change.why didnt thesame thing that happened in lagos happen in those other cities.even the cities in marginalised southeastern states have grown much faster,more mordern and with taller buildings.infact prior to colonial days there were no cities in southeast.

Re: Beaf , Nigeria Oil Was Use To Build Abuja And Not Lagos Or Yorubaland by becomrich15: 12:21am On Nov 09, 2009
Abagworo please tell us the factory or industries since 1976 that the federal govt set up  in lagos. thank for notice that all roof are old.  because you have made them slave, they cant even change thier roof.

did the federal govt build a steel factory in lagos or oyo state or ondo state?  no

or did the federal govt  build a refinery in ondo state?   no

Or did the federal build an expressway from okitipupa to akure or to ado to kabba to lokoja? . No  .we would do that.

or what the hell did the federal govt built. Is it the playfield call stadium in akure or osogbo or the one in ilorin begging for news one.

name , i am waiting for you to list it. where in ondo state or osun state or ekiti or kwara state or oyo state . come out and name the place.

Since 1976 even lagos got close to nothing from the federal govt of nigeria. and 90% of the non 90% of your non oil export is from us. 90%. And 90% of your tax income come from us.

Do you people pay tax. NO where do you think those money  non oil export comes from .

which state are you from and tell the whole world what tax to the federal govt did your people pay.

What tax did your state pay?

So tell me what % of the non does the rest of nigeria produce.
what is your productivity level in %.


Since 1976 we have got about 10% of the federal revenue.

Let Yar adua bring out his book. what project in the last 2 years have this govt finished or started in Yorubaland .   How does zero sound like.

How evil and wicked can you people be to other human?  Do you still have human feeling in your blood. Or your heart is just stone.

Re: Beaf , Nigeria Oil Was Use To Build Abuja And Not Lagos Or Yorubaland by becomrich15: 7:33am On Nov 10, 2009
look at it this way, in 1962, we yoruba had already built 3 universities to 2 in other part of nigeria.  it tell you, we were more wealth than the rest of nigeria. even our budget  show when you add the north  and east together.


Yorubas
University of ibadan,
University of lagos
University of ife

Rest of Nigeria
University of Nigeria
ahmadu bello university

even the money gowon spent during the civil war was from us.  there was civil war. NOTE nigeria went thru a civil war without been in debt. We did not have to pay anyone. This tell you the level of wealth in yorubaland in the 1960's.

Even from 1970 till today I am speaking. Yorubas have never taken a penny from your oil money. Many may disagree with me. But here is the point. Since 1970 till today. Yorubaland have produce 90% of Nigeria non oil sector. And what ever we have made even from 1970  till today from non oil sector is more than what we yorubas have recieved in any year from the federal govt. Please quote me on this.  If you doubt me, let yar adua bring out the books.  I throw this challenge to anyone to prove  me wrong.

Last years. Nigeria non oil sector revenue was over 900 billion. 90% of N900 billion is N810 billion. Did Yoruba state get 810 billion from the federal govt. The ask is NO, NO.      We got less than N120 billion, while we contributed N810 billion to nigeria. Please go and verify my information.

So since independent of the federal republic of Nigeria. We yorubas have never collect a dollar from Nigeria. Anyone can take me on this.  Gowon is alife to answer question if Chief Obafemi awolowo ever went to borrow money to pay for a 3 year civil war. Chief Obafemi awolowo who was in charge of the finance of Nigeria, never borrowed. $1 dollar for the 3 years of the civil war. We yorubas footed the bill of the civil war. You people had no money to contribute.

And you people are still been wicked and evil to us.   The real truth is , you people can not continue with hate for the yoruba people.

And you people created the nonsense call the civil war and you had no money to pay for it. How do you think they pay for relieve worker, How do you think they gave those of your people food.
How? Do you think, the people you were fighting supply the food. even them who were fighting you had no money. Gowon used our money to fight the civil war. Money we could have used for development. And you people sit online 24 hrs insult us everyday. How heartless can you be.

May be we should have not seperated you two from fighting. At least you would have all killed yourself and have no time to insult us. May be we should blame ourself.

It is only a wicked man who who trys to destroy the person that help them. Go and repent. You are a child of the devil.


Now mr the north is better of joining niger republic because the oil in the niger delta is about to finish. After 40 years of drilling. Do you think, it would be there for ever. There is no replace. Go watch the film sweet crude, and you see most of the oil well is drying up.


Now. the north need to look for another way for us to pay bill. The Niger republic have uranium and mostly 90% would have oil in thier desert, libya and chad across thier border have oil in their desert and the soil texture and formation are the same.

So it is time for us too to make Your real brothers in Niger republic. So the north have to join thier brother. But if they find oil. we must take part of oil. I would show you satellite pictures. why your niger brother likely have large deposite of oil. Let milk and eat your brothers for breakfast. Joking/// oil don nearly finish in niger delta. 40 years of drilling is over.

The north is like a baby, looking for breast milk. Niger republic their own blood brother is like a man. Does not need anyone. They have been a nation for over 40 years.

The north have more potential than Niger republic . But the north is a baby, crying mom mom mom I need food. I want breast milk.

Niger republic less potential. All grown up.

Ghana have less potential than the north. budget $6.4 billion

cameroon have less potential than the north. budget $5 billion

Ivory coast have less potential than the north. budget $ 7 billion


Thin benin republic  have less potential than the north. budget $ 3 billion

Thin Togo republic  have less potential than the north. budget $ 2 billion



Big Northern Nigeria with too much potential still drinking milk budget $0.0000000 Billion.


If Niger republic can be a country, the north can be a country.

Niger republic less potential. All grown up.

Ghana can be a country, the north can be a country.

cameroon can be a country, the north can be a country.

Ivory coast can be a country, the north can be a country.


Thin benin republic  can be a country, the north can be a country.

Thin Togo republic  can be a country, the north can be a country.


If Ghana and ivory coast combine makes $13 billion  the north should make twice that.


But what do we have , the north sucking breast milk,  budget $0.0000000 Billion.  It is time for the north to stand on thier feet. You can do it.

Re: Beaf , Nigeria Oil Was Use To Build Abuja And Not Lagos Or Yorubaland by becomrich15: 12:41am On Nov 12, 2009
Now let me continue.


In 2008 non oil revenue was N1.1 trillion

In 2007 non oil revenue was N 900 billion

In 2006 non oil revenue was N 710 billion

And yorubaland produced 90% of the non oil revenue.

So it means in 2008 , yorubaland produce N990 billion

in 2007 , yorubaland produce N810 billion

in 2006 , yorubaland produce N639 billion




What did we get

please look at the value from the federal ministry of finance.


http://www.fmf.gov.ng/FMF_Revenue_Alloc.aspx


We got less than N300 billion in any of the years, which include local , govt , state and project. They are just sucking us dry. They are milking away all of our revenue to other part of nigeria.
Re: Beaf , Nigeria Oil Was Use To Build Abuja And Not Lagos Or Yorubaland by becomrich15: 12:52am On Nov 12, 2009
So now, if we give the north 70% of the oil and we yorubas , edo delta and bayelsa state join the republic of benin. we get 30% of the oil. and we make up the different in non oil revenue.

The non oil revenue would drop by about 40% changing our revenue, but with the merger with republic of benin. it increase the non oil revenue by 15%. Taken us up to 75% of the present non oil revenue of yorubaland.

So example in 2008 . we would make if we are in republic of benin N742.5 billion instead of N990 billion. If we remove what we get from Nigeria. we still have a sulpus of N442 billion. That just the non oil revenue.

So we are better of with the 30% of the oil and give the north 70% of the oil.
