[quote author=Ugik post=38798601]you seem to ask a question but Your writeup shows you have already arrived at a logical conclusion thereby putting the cart before the horse. i may not be opportune to travel widely and from all indications, you haven't traveled much urself cos The way u painted the states you used in sighting as examples of why the SS and SE are underdeveloped which are akwa ibom and Aba shows you haven't visited those states at all but only rely on media reports.
Now, with the exception of aba in the SE where i come from, every other state in this region ought to be considered before a balanced analysis can take place or u mean to tell me that if a particular state out of 5 is not doing well, t hen it's assumed the region is backward. common statistical knowledge would tell you otherwise. with all due respect to ma yoruba and nothern brothers who seem exempted from your writeup, which state aside lagos, can match the development strides in enugu, Anambra alone.
Yo u also mentioned Akwa ibom and its quiet apauling that a state of that caliber will form the basis of your argument. Bro, try and visit AKWA IBOM AYAYA cos I served there .
with respect to your question whether they are the most corrupt cos majority of my brothers down south Rooted for GEJ, I can simpy tell you that the answer you are looking for is, NO, they are not. politics is a game of who gets wat and when And history has proven to be a determinant factor that shows how politics is played. go and read nigerias political history and then you can get your assertion right.
Finally, we learnt in schl that statistics has two sides so Your overall general assertion of all SS and SE is wrong cos Not everyone here actually voted GEJ but A greater percentage did.Corrected

Care to explain how Akwa Ibom is broke? Did you see the state's name among those that applied for the FG's debt relieve fund? And who the hell told you Akwa Ibom is owing civil servants? Imagine this bullcrap! @ OP get your useless "facts" straight before you come here to spew garbage.
You are the one who does not have the correct facts. Civil servants recruited by Akwa Ibom State government in November 2014 have not been paid a penny till date! Go and find out!

Most of them are begging to survive! Go and find out! I have stated my facts and who is being owed so you can work with that.

Please come back here with the result of your findings.

The North is "developing at a rapid speed"?! Same north that i worked in?! Sir, you are a CONFIRMED LIAR! Have you EVER travelled to the North? You want to compare the.likes of Niger, Bauchi, Taraba, Adamawa woth the filthy muslim ghettos, ridiculously poor healthcare system, terrible civil infrastructure, poor education institutions, banditry, and almajiri issues with states like Enugu, Cross River (Calabar), Akwa Ibom? Mr. Man you have NOT travelled anywhere AT ALL! Again,BULL CRAP from your end. Do us a favour and STOP SPEWING GARBAGE.
Hahaha... That's what a typical SE and SS think. But unfortunately, its not different from what you have in your states. What infrastructure do you have in your state that is not in Northern states. Airports, Roads, Schools, Stadiums etc

So, for your mind now, all you wrote above made sense to you?

Can you show me an evidence that GEJ is corrupt?

If he is corrupt as you say, why haven't the current government arrest and prosecute him instead of making noise in the media?

How many people have your non corrupt government arrested and how many have they sent to jail?


The fight against Jonathan wasn't about corruption nor to save Nigeria because Nigeria was never better than it was under GEJ.

GEJ refused to play ball and they fought against him to remove him, they sold a dummy to you guys in the name of corruption which you bought into and still fooling yourselves with.

You guys call GEJ corrupt but praise Obasanjo, Tinibu, Amaechi, fashola just because they are you party members.

Half of your so called new party are made up of ex pdp members, the party you accuse of been corrupt, if you are serious about fighting corruption, what are you doing with members of the so called corrupt party that ruined Nigeria according to you guys?

When saraki joined your party, you guys welcomed him and called him a saint but when he went against the leadership of your party, he suddenly became corrupt.


It is a pity some brain dead history starved mugus fell for the scam called apc/buhari in the name of fighting corruption and restoring Nigeria, I wonder which former status you want to restore Nigeria to because the last time I checked, Nigeria has never had a period to be proud of.


I would always be wary of whoever people like tinibu, obj, ibb is supporting because they can never support anybody who meant well for the country as they are only interested in their pockets.

Obasanjo and tinibu are apc saints. smiley smiley

Ndi ara.

Buhari before election - I don't know what fuel subsidy is.

Same Buhari after election - we will not remove fuel subsidy.

Shey you guys said fuel subsidy is a scam, so why is your sainthood leader going ahead with the scam. smiley


Finally, let me ask you, what has buhari done since he became president that is different from what GEJ was doing?
kingdompropty:
Correction:

1. SE, SS have the highest intolerance for oppression.

2. Fashola stole Lagos blindly the Yoruba want him to be rewarded, while the want Odua stoned.

3. Fayemi furnished his room with 150m, the Yoruba wants him rewarded but wants Okonjo Iweala imprisoned.

4. Tinubu will go down in history as a drug baron, certificate cheat and big crook, ironically he is Yoruba leader but Ekweremadu must be bombed.

5. I can continue to mention names of the biggest thieves in history of Yoruba extraction, yet they are daily celebrated.

SE / SS are great people and I must tell you that Amaechi will someday atone for his sins in Niger Delta.

Yorubas have a name. Hypocrites.
patrick89:
North has the highest level of poverty, illiteracy and every form of avoidable diseases!

North has better roads because the following reasons..
1. Their roads are always empty, no vehicle ply on their roads,
2. The former head of states constructed more roads especially during Buhari's tenure.
3. The north has no natural disaster like erosion that would damage roads..


The corruption in the north is not measurable, that's why you have very few super mega rich elites ruling over super poor many ordinary people... while in the south, we have upper class, middle class and lower class, middle class in SE is up to 50 percent of the population. People from any background can be governor, minister anything from South, but that can never happen in the north.

The conspiracy against the minorities in the north is worst than corruption.
There many categories of minorities in the north. 1 poor minority (thou they are highest in population) they include both christian and muslim.
2 christian minority, whether you are rich or poor, provided that you are a christian, you're in minority in the north..

North is a shithole! I will never forgive any person that wish me the same evil on north.....
Re: Are SS And SE More Corrupt Regions In Nigeria? by DMerciful(m): 7:58am On Oct 10, 2015
You are talking of public tap water as a yardstick to development! Water supply as a problem was long solved in SS and SE and it has been remove from government priorities....The greatest development is human capital that's why the SS and SE is leading other regions on the millennium development goals. We want GEJ cos he was doing sustainable reforms and development. He was building institutions and for your info free and fare elections left with GEJ undecided

Now which SS and SE state has public water supply? Can you compare hospitals in Aba or Umuahia with a hospoital in Kaduna? Seee North is developing at a rapid speed and SE and SS think they are still years ahead. We have government taps running in the North at least in some of the states. Which town in the SE and SS do we have that? Please I will like to know. You are saying Akwa Ibom ayaya based on what you saw. Where in Akwa Ibom did you serve.

I won't blame you, someone coming from Aba will call Uyo a heaven.

VERY GOOD!! You just shot yourself in the foot! So cos the state govt is yet to pay the most recent batch of recruited workers ONLY, it automatically means everyone has not been paid?! You see your useless life? You're aware that the issue behind the.non payment is being resolved, info gathered by the state Min of Finance, and payment will start this very October, right?

please i do not live in aba, u misinterpreted that part, i was referring to SE. I live in enugu and there are over a 100+ places here in enugu with pipe borne water from the government. here alone at obiagu, the taps are running and the same with many other places. go to ebonyi state, they ve portable pipe borne water but That has been quarantined due to communal clashes that left dead bodies in the major source of water flow at ezeilo. talking about hospital, aside the private hospitals in Nigeria, every state has 3 hospitals thr federal, state and military hospitals and unth Enugu is the only hospital in Nigeria where heart surgery is done, so wat hospital in kaduna are u now comparing it with.
yes, i ve not travelled the 36 states as u said u ve but Travelling does not mean you ve perfect knowledge of wat u are saying cos A traveller only has a limited time to stay. facts about a place are not deduced within a persons 1 month stay at a place.

i would have ignored this but because of the ignorance filled post of your i stand to correct you... There is no city in nigeria that has adequate pipe borne water...mr traveller do you know a little state like ebonyi has functional rural water scheme and pipe borne water that functions periodically in the capital city abakaliki?. Coming to abia and akwa ibom where exactly do you know...bring them out one by one so that we can discuss. And then name the northern city that has optimal functional water scheme if not what is got from other states.
conclusion: i am not saying things are how it should be in south east and south south south but i want to correct your misinformations on
1-your choosing of the wrong states makes everyone know you are not traveled as you claim
2-your assumptions is what i term ill gotten assumptions which is most definitely from the media

Fool, is the said loan meant to finance the state's recurrent expenditure or finance capital projects & the governor's industrialisation drive? You see why you're a big LIAR like your party? If you've got beef with the SS, here's an advice: go jump of 3rd Mainland Bridge. Useless tw@t.
Re: Are SS And SE More Corrupt Regions In Nigeria? by Nobody: 12:47am On Oct 12, 2015
thomasthomas:
When I read certain comments from people here on nairaland who are from these regions, I begin to wonder whether these people cannot desire, seek and aspire to have a transparent government that guarantees good governance and accountability.

In politics, when other regions were fed up of the corrupt administration of Ex President Good luck Jonathan, people from these two regions were supporting him to continue. Rotimi Amaechi singled out himself from the corrupt administration, supported other regions to put an end to the nepotism and today he is being called a 'Betrayer'.

Sadly, these two regions has seen more money than any other region in Nigeria and yet it has little or nothing to show for it. The south south region for instance has two government institutions with budgets every year but nothing to show for it. NDDC and Ministry of Niger Delta and yet the region doesn't look different from other regions.

In Akwa Ibom for instance, there is no road connecting it with Abia and Cross River State, Amaechi said it in Calabar during the APC campaign.

In south East, most of their inter state and internal roads are bad, Aba for example has very bad roads same with other SE cities.

Now look at other regions in Nigeria, can these people continue crying of being marginalized or they are just so CORRUPT, stealing all the funds.

Akwa Ibom for the past eight years, received the highest allocation in the country, today the state is a broke, no being able to pay salary and now borrowing money from CBN together with having a huge debt profile already.

These people are really corrupt and their own problem so they should stop whining when other regions succeed and when progressives in the regions joins other progressives in the other less corrupt regions.
You must read this article Urhobo Eulogizes Igbo, Says Igbo are The salt of
The nation how Much Respect Do You Show Igbos?I
am not Igbo. I am proud of my Urhobo. However, as
a student of history, I wish to show just what these
great people came/come against and yet thrive. Okay,
the incessant killings in the North will be glossed
over so as to make this article not overly long. The
civil war will also not be discussed. However, post
civil war, as I explained in my post MINORITY
REPORT: THE SYSTEM IS RIGGED AGAINST
YOU, the rich in Nigeria have major roots in the
Indegenization decree of 1972 and 1977.I reminded
how the banks gave people of other tribes,
predominantly Hausas and Yorubas loans to by up
companies owned by foreigners. Now imagine the
Federal government forced Chevron to sell 51 percent
of its shares and that Access Bank will give you loans
to buy the shares. How rich will you be in a year? 5
Years? That is how many Yorubas and Hausas got to
own UAC, all those Dunlop, Leventis, Cadbury etc.
Now while this was ongoing, Gowon told the
Nigerian banks to give TOPS twenty naira to any
Igbo man that had money in the bank before the war.
That is, if you had 5 naira before the war, you will
be given the 5 naira. But if you had a hundred naira,
you get just twenty naira in full fulfilment of the
banks duty to give you your money. Ask yourselves
“why would the banks give Igbos only twenty naira?
Did the banks collapse? So why pay less than you
were given?So while the banks were giving loans to
Hausa and Yorubas to buy Oyibo companies they did
not build, Igbos were being cheated out of their
rightful moneys. Now not also that these people lost
Houses and business across the land. It is safe to say
that as at 1970/71. the richest Igbo had 20 naira that
may be the equivalent of maybe one million. Let us
look at how Dangote made his money. He Dangote (a
great man and pride to Nigeria) has an uncle called
Dantata who owned huge chunks of the groundnut
pyramids of the 50’s and 60’s. He gave Dangote a
loan and Dangote paid it back in record time. CLAP
CLAP. The add that Dangote has had his “brothers”
in government, from IBB to Abacha and Abdulsalaam.
When they now agreed to democracy, he was rich
enough to have funded Obasanjo and so government
policies, be it monopoly afforded him for rice, sugar
flour and of course a large share of subsidy etc
ensures he is the wealthiest Nigerian. (note many had
same opportunity but did not use it. We kowtow to
Dangote’s investment capabilities)However, for the
Igbo man, where will he see an uncle that will loan
him money? The richest man in their family has how
much as at then? So while Fani Kayode can inherit
property of his father and grandfather and great grand
father, a Chidi Cali cannot inherit anything from his
grandfather who had business in Kano or even Port
Harcourt. Neighbours have made his dad’s storey
building theirs, and even someone as educated as
Saro Wiwa lived in an Igbo war emigrant house as
his. (a sore point of the Niger Delta and Igbo Unity)
WAEC building was Ojukwu’s dad’s building and
like that building, thousands and the land with
it….lands worth billions today were taken from Igbos
and each and every Igbo had tops 20 naira, destroyed
homeland, stolen and destroyed wealth away from the
east. also his brother is never president that will give
him oil block or fuel lifting. Of 33, only one Igbo
man and because he was in Obasanjo’s good graces.
YET LOOK HOW PROUD THEY STAND TODAY!!!
Look what they have achieved for
themselves….FIRST GENERATION WEALTH…top
second generation. From being unable to send their
first sons to school so he could help look after the
shop, to producing first class brains in all
departments of modern learning.
So today, as you accuse Igbos of wanting their Biafra
or of Baby Factory, or liking money and ready to do
anything for money, remember that just forty years
ago, while the banks were dashing your uncles loans
to buy all the companies of Nigeria, it stole from the
Igbos. Know that appointments have not favoured
them. Note that they remain persecuted and many
speak such ill and hate towards a people forced by
need to survive to be extra-aggressive towards their
sustenance. Maybe if you took their history into
consideration, you will not be so critical of them, but
instead say “what a resilient people” and give God
the glorythat FOR NOW, we and such a great people
are compatriots.
