The Igbo were the ones in Dangote's position from the 1940s to July 1966, we were the dominant tribe in Nigeria.

Nigeria didn't turn into paradise back then and the Igbo certainly didn't make any effort to turn Nigeria into a free market economy....for exactly the reasons the British didn't do it and that's why the dominant Islamic Alliance will not do it today.

Basically VIOLENCE is the currency of political power in Nigeria and the result is always winner take all. Direct translation - no development.

Good Luck to Nigerians.

Aboki boys full everywhere with millions of hard currency , yet some people with 2x2 shop will claim that they are the only biz tycoon in Nigeria who developed Lagos .
When it comes to business ventures the Northern guys are the king,yet they don't make noise and chest beat even when then can afford to by all the 2x2 shops and their owners.

Lagos is simply the undisputed economic capital in naija... The size is massive... Other states need to upgrade.. Dem dey lag behind.. .. all economic statistics back Lagos as naija engine room

datola:
Omo, Lagos na ya mate!

Lagos is where things are happening in Nigeria.

Most business/investment related giverment ministries and agencies should be moved back to Lagos.

Abuja is corruption capital of Nigeria where Nigeria's wealth is looted.

!gbos don't even make top 5 of wealthiest of Southern Nigerians not to talk of the whole country. !gbos are mostly noise makers who are too full of themselves

It's a pity most Nigerians don't know or maybe embraced a false history, or haven't bothered to do a proper analysis.

The Igbo controlled Nigeria in all but name. A study of the demography of federal employees and university graduates makes it very clear. The Igbo were so utterly dominant that the Fulani & Yoruba were begging for secession and the Igbo rejected their pleas. In fact Zik ceded the position of Prime Minister to the North as a gesture of good faith, to tamp down Northern secessionist sentiment.

Not just those tribes. Do you know there were TWO Cameroonian provinces that were part of Nigeria? They were given a referendum in 1964. The Northern Cameroonian province elected to remain part of Northern Nigeria, but the Southern Cameroons decided to leave the Eastern Region and join Cameroon. Their reason? Igbo domination. Go and read the history, it's fascinating.

The Jan 1966 coup was an attempt to keep Nigeria together, it was an effort to salvage a nation wracked by serious political instability that has set in soon after independence. The biggest error resulting from the coup was Unitary Decree No 34. The rest is history and we're all living it.

Good Luck to Nigeria.

Ondo is not on the list. Are there no BDC in Ondo State?
What about those abokis standing under Akure bridge and around the post office area? Are they not BDC too?

See what is wealth distribution ratio in SW compared to South east? It makes no sense that you have top richest people and majority of your people are poor. The wealth distribution in SE is more efficient than SW.

You are a liar!
🤣

Who was begging who?

Bloody liar!

Your people were still going naked to the market place in Colonial times, so how where you dominant?
Your region was poor, you had no semblance of organization like the other tribes.

Your people still practised cannibalism like brutes and some still do today.
So what the heck are you going on about?

Again demographics of which Graduates?
How many Secondary Schools were in the East?

Then when did Azikiwe cede which foolish Prime Minister to the North?
You mean it was his and he dashed it out?
Was his Party the dominant party?

Who dash am?
🤣

You are so deluded or outrightly silly!

So by your silly analogy, if the other parts were begging to leave Nigeria because of 'Igbo dominance,' why conduct a Coup and kill all their leaders but yours?

Did you get all these madness from Radio Biafra?

Utter nonsense!

The Fulanis and Yorubas were begging you?
Who the fxck do you think you are?

Stop drinking that expired shit.

Is their joker against South west if south west don't want to dance to their tune they will make other ports working,let them build one international airport in the south east where all European airline can land and take off you will feel it at muritala Mohammed lagos,we know what is going on in nigeria,if they can move capital to Abuja what is ordinary port if they are connected to Atlantic ?

Awolowo even wrote a book on why tribe is the basis of the nation state. Go look up the Cameroons Referendum of 1964.

I explained all this before, it's nothing new. I don't know why you're being rude.

Anyway, have a good day.

Good Luck to Nigerians.

I tend to disagree with this your Statement, because Nigeria was practicing regionalism then, there was no absolute power fir the central and the leadership then was shared along the regional lines and for your information the eastern Nigerian growth was compared to that of Britain and Russia those times, they were the most adavanced region in nigeria and Africa at large, GO AND READ YOUR HISTORY MY FRIEND.

That is what you've been told. Did you verify this? This is what I'm very sure of, they are the real owners of the BDC...They are not working for northerners. Do you know Mompha has a BDC license?

You lot are the most deluded people I know.

If you are not Jews one moment, you are the most developed sub-region in Nigeria and Africa, comparable to Britain.

The Brits found you in a very pitiful state-- bordering on starvation, practicing cannibalism...stark naked!

All of a sudden you are the most developed.
🤣
What were the indices of that development?

...and don't pull up some obscure unverified page from thin air like you are wont to do.

😂😂...my God ...is this how dumb you are?

The Brits found your people hungry and starving ?...your indeed amongs the most ignorant black people that has refused to remove the chains of slavery from their already rotten necks.

Do you know the extent of civilization we had before they invaded our land?

Do you think they would have invaded a land filled with hunger and starvation?....you must be a kid to think so stupid of your ancestors...spits.

HBB1:


There was no extent of civilization anywhere.

Your people were naked and starving.

ezechi24:


😂😂....chai is that what your ancestors told you about their history?

You guys might really be backwards...sorry I was trying to correct your own ancestral history...hahahaha.....cause mine is different from yours so much.

HBB1:



I don't have time for too much talk.

Even in the early 1900s, they had to make a decree preventing your people from going naked to the market.

It was that bad.
