Babapupa,
I'd rather enjoy the fresh air in my ''village'' than inhaling the poison that Lagos is

chic2pimp:

No wonder
I also don't think you've ever been to pretoria or have you?
Forget the pretty picture y'all see on the net and go and sample the real pretoria for ya self

Sorry, I am more travelled than you. name the continent and I've been to many cities there, trust me.

Biina,
Lagos was not part of Western Nigeria then. Lagos was a fed territory.  Awo had no power to establish Unilag. So, I repeat that Awo had no hand in the creation of UI and Unilag. Go do your research well.
UI was built by Oyibo
UniLag was build by the fed in the fed capital, Lagos
ABU was built by the North
Ife was built by Awo
UNN was created by Zik
How is Awo involved in Unis in the West except Ife?

London is not a nice city at all. Washington DC is a better city to visit.

This is an example of anambra state university  . Hehe cult activities

Which part of DC are you talking about? The SE that is full of poor black people ? Or the rich white suburban areas ?

DC and london is just like lagos and , poor areas and rich areas.

However, anambra and enugu are crappy all round

Some of the areas I've been to in D.C are at the very least pitiful

You might be more travelled than I , that I can't verify however one thing I am sure off is that you've never been to pretoria

You've started making your wild allegations again. Can you tell me what Abiola stole from Nigeria and how he did it?. Shame on you if you cannot.

why do you increase font sizes as if you are short sighted?

As to what Abiola stole, where were the telecommunication infrastructure that his 49% owned ITT and 100% owned Radio Communcations Nig. Ltd were supposed to have installed?

Which telecom infrastructure? . I've warned you from peddling unfounded rumors. If you have any proof that Abiola stole your money in Nigeria, please do indulge me and stop presenting Fela's ganja driven accusation.

what are you disputing, that the contract wasn't awarded or that the job was done?

biina:

When, where and who disbursed the money to Abiola?. Do you even know the meaning of ITT and Abiola's position in the organization?. How is ITT related to Nigeria and their money?

I dont know why you keep reiterating it, but I never said Awo created UI, and only said it was transitioned.
As to Unilag, Lagos state as you know it today was not entirely the FCT. The part under FG rule was only the Municipality of Lagos, which covered the Island and some part of the mainland (i would assume places like Yaba and Obalende included),  while other areas like Ikeja, Agege, Mushin, Ikorodu, Epe and Badagry were under the western region. Awolowo could have sited the new university in any of this places, a move that would have made sense given the demographics, but would have made the establishment of Unilag less likely, given that UI was already in the west and Yaba college was already in Lagos.

Sounds like you're on your own because more than half of your kinfolks outside Igboland living in Yorubaland must like inhaling the poison in Lagos, seems they can't get enough of it. And if you're really serious, beg dem to comot go back to Igboland make we clean up all the slums they create.

Lagos was clean before den show up,

Dirty people,

What of Ben Akabueze and Joe Igbokwe? Make I beg them too to leave Eko?

Please be my guest. Lagos is more than both of them put together and we have more than enough qualified folks to take their spots.

This is funny, but I will humor you a bit.
ITT is International Telephone and Telegraph, a company Abiola joined as the comptroller in 1969. He ousted the expratiate MD and became a 49% percent stakeholder (after he returned from forming his own company, Radio Telecommunications as a competitor to ITT when they initially refused his demands). He later became Vice -Chairman for  MEA.

The contract in question was awarded in 1975 by Murtala as minister for communications (shortly before becoming head of state) and was for installation of exchanges and phone booths. Other contracts were awarded to Radio Telecommunications, particularly for military installations. The former permanent secretary, Akindele, was retired (then recalled) over refusing to sign the papers over issues of transparency and due process.

The implementation of the contact propelled Nitel (then P &T) to 'great heights'

Lagos is 50% Igbo property. Igbos will stay there for life; that is those who are interested. No shaking! As for me, I'd rather live in my hamlet than in Lagos. I don pass the level of Lagos 10 years ago.

Why do you guys keep swimming in this stupid and bogus delusions. And where is the pride and wisdom in claiming other people's land when your own towns and villages still resemble 17th century zulu settlements?


Shameless people, lol.

Apart from Lagos built by Igbos, other Yoruba towns are not in reckoning. My father's duplex there is being guarded by an Yoruba man. lol

You want your own country and want to stay in someone else land for life?

Igbos do not want Biafra any longer. We will finally take over Lagos and drive them Yoruba people to where they belong: Cotonou.

And we are waiting for them to try any nonsense secession. Just wait, one of these days they'll cry out and we will be laughing.

We will make it a "megacity" after. Meanwhile I still like the fresh air for my village.

You know this is the same false claims we've been hearing about Abiola while growing up. It's a lie.

You are from Anambra; why not assist your governor in turning it into a megacity? Yoruba adage 'ibi ti ko ba si ile latin jiyon ija ikadi' - It is where there is no land, that we can imagine what it would be like to fight.

Stop your fixation with Yoruba and Lagos; go and develop your state. Unless of course, you are all mouth and no action.
Let Lagosians worry about issues concerning Lagos.
