Aba will never even be close to PHC. How much more Lagos

Most of you from the SW always talk out of ignorance. Travel and be enlightened, you refuse yet you all always end up embarrassing yourselves online.

You said Aba will never be close to PHC? Lol, what P.H has over Aba is just the oil economy of Rivers state and the Onne port. Aside that, Aba is already ahead of P.H in terms of commerce of industry. P.H relies on Aba for most of its needs. With the advantage of reliable and cheap electricity, Aba is expected to grow faster than P.H that failed to maximize its potential during the oil boom era.

Honestly, managing highrise buildings in a country with epileptic power supply is a nightmare. If they tell you how much they spend on diesel alone every month or the cost of maintaining those big generators you will shock.

I see Aba having high rises that will be managed efficiently and profitably.

The north don't consider Obi, rest, they were caught between kwankwaso, Atiku and Tinubu not Obi.

Lol, you’re quite ignorant. Obi actually won in many areas of North. I’m not even talking about NC, Obi won lots of places in core Islamic states like Sokoto, Bauchi, Gombe etc. The only problem was that they allowed the drug lord to rig it because they weren’t fully committed in fighting the riggers.

In 2027, it will be a do or die affair for them and I see them burning alive election riggers. Even Tinubu knows that North didn’t really support him and it was his drug money and connivance with INEC that got him the mandate. That’s why he doesn’t even send them.

Now the indigenous people of Lagos are talking. I used to wonder how they allowed abobakus to invade them from their rusted slum settlements and took over their state.

Lagos and Abuja will definitely be independent regions on their own, for the regionalism to work. Some parasites can’t reap where they didn’t sow.

Very soon, the core North will need the Igbos to survive in Nigeria! They had it coming!

The time has already arrived!

Look, Peter Obi and Obidients have changed all permutations. Obi is the most popular politician in Nigeria today and the obidient movement has the largest, most intelligent and astute followers. So, it’s not possible for Obi to step down or run as vice to a Northern candidate. It’s either the North rallies around him and he wins with a tsunami that can’t be rigged or they watch Tinubu rule for 8 years.

In just one year, Tinubu has unleashed their worst nightmare and seems not to care about their feelings. If he can do that within his first year, then what happens when he gets re-elected?

The speed Tinubu threw El Rufai under the bus and is even getting involved in their traditional politics like Emir of Kano shows how condescending he has become towards the northern establishment. The mantra in the inner cycles of politics within the North now is “anyone except Tinubu”.

It’s really amusing and quite pathetic seeing Northern politicians being so afraid and acting so helplessly😂

Northern plan come 2027 is Jonathan..he will rule only 1 term.
With Jonathan Obi will not contest, Jonathan will get zero vote in SW but will win massively in SS,SE,NE,NW and they will share NC.
I see Jonathan flying PDP ticket in 2027.
Mind you returning power to north in 2027 is tantamount to break up of Nigeria

Lol, that’s dead on arrival. You think Igbos are really happy with Jonathan? No!

Personally, I would even vote Tinubu with all his problems than vote a weak Jonathan who caused all these challenges today. Jonathan won’t command the followership of the Obidient movement & Tinubu will defeat him before 12 noon on Election Day. You think Obidients will accept any arrangement that will bring up Jonathan instead of Obi? A weak and indecisive Jonathan against a bold Tinubu implementing political reforms against the Northern hegemony will see Obidients going for Tinubu.

2027 is between Obi and Tinubu, anything else means Tinubu will have an express ticket for 8 years.

Even IPOB supporters are now low-key supporting Tinubu while they see Obi as another Azikiwe who is ready to pander to the whims of North.

I see Tinubu granting Nnamdi Kanu bail towards the election to frustrate Obi in the East. Either way, the North has found itself in a very difficult position.

In as much as felt no justice with Tinubu Presidency, l will support him if he continue to show courage to balance power in Nigeria. He is already doing.
There is nothing special about north than plenty almajiris on voting day.

They have done enough damage to Nigeria already

As it stands now, I’m indifferent. I don’t care who wins between Obi and Tinubu. The fact that the ticket narrows to the two of them gives me great joy.

I support Obi because I’m fully convinced that he can transform Nigeria economically. However, I now support Tinubu as well because of his boldness in challenging the status quo. Whoever wins between them is okay by me.

They would rather vote Atiku, followed by Tinubu, then followed by Kwakwanso in that order over the agulu fraud. Atiku just needs to break solidly into the SW. That's all.

SS would be additional bonus for Atiku, but not really required.

Most importantly, they know voting another southerner aside Tinubu is technically giving the South 12 years of presidency. They would rather wait their turn in 2031. Northerners don't play nzogbu nzogbu politics.


Lol, see this Tinubu supporter with his odudowa half baked sense. Of course, Obi is Tinubu’s worst nightmare and that’s why he sends his troll farm to keep attacking him day and night yet his popularity keeps soaring😂

Tinubu and his supporters know that only Obi has a good chance of sending him packing from Aso rock. The North too will be foolish not to know this already. Even Atiku has realized their situation and that’s why he is saying he is ready to step down for Obi.

Only a United front will crush Tinubu and his rigging machinery, and the North knows this. The song on their lips now is “Tinubu must never return”.

Finally, the chickens have returned home to roost. The north has suddenly found itself in a catch 24 situation. They’ve realized that Muslim Muslim ticket was actually a Mumu poisoned chalice. Tinubu has really dealt with them in unimaginable ways that they’re now full of regrets. But it’s too late!

They rejected Obi that promised and also showed full working on how he will revitalize agriculture which used to be the backbone of their economy. However, in 2027, they’ve no choice than to choose between Obi and Tinubu.

No other Northern politician can defeat Tinubu in 2027, especially with Obi on the ballot. Not Atiku, not Kwankwaso, not anyone!

Their only option is either to support Obi fully and defeat Tinubu with the ensuing tsunami or have Tinubu rule them for 8 years and I can bet you, the very idea alone makes them to sh1t in their pants. Tinubu has really dealt with them in ways they never imagined and is even threatening them with both Oduduwa and regional autonomy, even in his first tenure, then imagine what will happen to them should Tinubu get re-elected. Even Biafran separatists are now backing Tinubu and that’s to show you how Tinubu has really crushed the North.

These are indeed interesting times. The Northern Muslims will have to choose between their MUMU ticket or go for a Christian they hate for no reason other than religion.

Karma is indeed a bitch😂

Keep deceiving yourselves
Free education in Yorubaland when Igbos were the VCs in Ibadan and Lagos
LMAO
How rich were Kenneth Dike's parents? Man was an orphan.
How rich were Achebes parents?!
Igbos practiced community scholarships so those with brains went to school on the charity of their people.

There was a reason why Igboland produced the best brains in Nigeria by the time British left. Every family, kindred, community or church were focused on training the most intelligent children on full scholarship while others focused on agriculture or artisan.

The Igbo leaders then like Michael Okpara were so smart they focused on areas of priority and it wasn’t any surprise why we had one of the fastest developing economies in world. There were far more registered businesses in the East than the West and North combined! Read that again and let it sink!!

If that pace of development had continued with the civil war messing things up and the breaking up of regions into states, the East would have become advanced today.

I have studied countries that achieved greatness and I discovered that Igbos share a lot of similarities with those countries examples like China and Israel. If progressive Igbos have been in control of Nigeria from independence and not feudalist Fulanis and Yorubas, the country would have advanced far more than its current deplorable state.

Smart countries hand over power to the most enterprising citizens and enjoy progress while unfortunate ones like Nigeria hand it to the most backward and suffer stagnation.

SoNature:


When it happens, you go find another excuse.

Listen, leadership is tough, very tough. You need sincere, creative and hardworking people to drive a people to progress.

Any region that can produce such leaders will be the most successful and it hasn't nothing to do with tribe.

The upper hand that the SS has is that the resources are readily available. They just need sincere and creative people to reinvest it (diversification). This is already happening in Akwa Ibom State now.

Leadership and the masses way of life go together to make countries great. Good leadership without comensurate enterprising and focused masses won’t lead to a great country.

Forget about natural resources, it doesn’t make countries great, otherwise Congo, South Sudan, Gabon, Equitorial Guinea etc won’t be so backward.

If Nigeria should have autonomy for the regions, South South won’t be any better than countries like Gabon, Equitorial Guinea or South Sudan. Delta and Bayelsa are very good examples why they won’t see any tangible improvement even if given autonomy.

The South East would definitely have the best democracy in West Africa. The church, diaspora, high literacy rates, culture and traditions, and the enterprising and indomitable nature of Igbos are the factors that will push them to success.

The North will automatically become a failed state and would have the worst indices in the world. However, the South West would also be an economic power due to Lagos.

I keep saying it that education is dead in yoroberland. Most of you are so naive that normal educated people will be feeling disgusted at you guys.

Firstly, states receive higher allocations based on landmass and population. Those are two of the basic factors used in sharing allocations.

If only you have common sense, you should be weeping for your rusted region. You’re bragging with the slum called Oyo and how it’s so big. However, just Imo state alone has a much higher GDP than your worthless Oyo.

Continue living in dead slums while shouting landmass while Igbos are busy developing their cities and villages to standards.

Senseless abobakus.

Sharap. He is right.

𝐃𝐈𝐃 𝐘𝐎𝐔 𝐊𝐍𝐎𝐖 that South-East Region of five States is almost the same size of Oyo State (one state out of the six South-West States)?

Yet, South-East Region (equivalent to Oyo State) is governed by:

i. 5 Governors
ii. 15 Senators
iii. 43 House of Representatives Members
iv. 95 Local Government Chairmen
v. 129 State House of Assembly Members

While Oyo State is governed by:

i. 1 Governor
iI. 3 Senators
iii. 14 House of Representatives Members
iv. 33 Local Government Chairmen
v. 33 State House of Assembly Members

South East Total Landmass = 28,983Km²

Oyo State Landmass = 28,454Km²

Why is SE, a glorified single State with 5 Governors and 95 LGA Chairmen not better developed than Oyo State with just one Governor and 33 LGA Chairmen?

Why has South East that collect allocations in five different places under five Governors and 95 Council Chairmen not been able to turn the region into Dubai?

Are the five heads of SE better than one head of Oyo State?

You are comparing Ogun state to tiny Abia state. In March alone, a 6.5km road was commissioned in Owode and another 1.5km road commissioned this week in Ogijo. Ogun state is big so it may appear that the governor is not doing anything. Although he can do more which is why we press his neck.

Size of Ogun: 16,981 km²
Size of Abia: 4,902 km²

Empty headed villages are always using landmass to make comparisons. If only this boy is educated, he will know that empty landmass doesn’t mean anything, it is the development that matters.

Northern Nigeria with large landmass doesn’t make noise, but these local chest beaters always look for anything, no matter how stupid it is, to make foolish boast with. Niger state alone is same size with the entire South west put together, yet you don’t see northerners using it to brag foolishly.

see full exposure.

Soyinka character has been questionable for a long time. What we are mistaking as his 'social conciousness' is just a look. It's an aesthetic he wears as a part of a brand and nothing more. From starting campus cult, to being corruption until Babangida offers him position, to protesting Jonathan but supporting Tinubu. to the fact that nobody reads or cites his work. hes just reno omokri for the pre-indomie era

It’s really a shame that after many decades of hero-worshipping this vile character, his true identity eventually emerged at the twilight of his life. Anyways, I’m glad he didn’t die with that wrong perception of his true identity.

After a deep analysis on his life and actions, it’s safe to say that Wole Soyinka is not of a noble character to say the least. This is a man that brought secret cult fraternities to Nigeria, a terrible input that has devastated our social fabrics and continues to wreak havoc till this date. This same man once invaded a radio station and took innocent staff hostage at gunpoint. This same man worked closely with despots and couldn’t even perform outstandingly with the FRSC. This same man betrayed other African writers just for unmerited favours from the Whites. This same man hypocritically insulted Jonathan and his wife, a sitting president. He went on protests against them and encouraged all manner of vile acts against him. Today, he is wining and dining with a terrible man like Tinubu and still have the guts to insult Obidients and Peter Obi who have shown to be 10x better than him in all moral compass evaluation.

I can go on and on to list logical reasons why Wole Soyinka deserves to be shamed and never respected. Anyways, his comeuppance has eventually caught up with him.

“Hausa hoodlums attack a police station and many feared dead”

“100 suspected IPOB militants invade a police station and scores are left in the ensuing clashes”
