To underscore the importance of the region as the breadwinner of the nation, a misunderstanding between the Lagos State Government and Northern traders who bring goods such pepper, edibles, fruits and cows from the North created panic in the city some years ago. For a few days, the food chain of an entire state was shut down. Drought soon became imminent. Prices of foodstuff also went up astronomically. There was panic everywhere as residents prayed for the northerners to end the strike. Such is the importance of the North. Why do we then still refer to them as parasites when they feed the entire country? The coming of the military truncated the progress of the North just as it did other regions. Our leaders’ failure to harness the resources of the country created an oil-based mono-economy which made the entire country dependent on the product. This is not the North’s problem. It is a Nigerian conundrum.

If they want to go, let them go. All dis noise is kinda making dem feel important. Am a yoruba boy n I love ibo Pple.

The more I know the northerners the more frustrated i get about what could've been the most amazing tribe. On one hand you guys can be really nice and simple, while on the other hand your religious violence couple with the entitentitlement attitudes tends to rear it's head ugly.

Hindsight is a wonderful thing, but I wonder if our forefathers would've agreed to form a nation if they could forseeforsee what is now happening.

did ur groundnut contribute more than palm oil,coal,rubber and timber? the answer is a big fat no!

Weep Not Child!
Let me ask: Do the isiewu eaters lay claim to the maize, sorghum, millet n Co that u produce? Do they appropriate revenue as of right from these staples? Don't forget precious metals also mined at will from your region, does the pepper soup drinker have any rights over these? In your 'friendly and accommodating' nature u made sure u made laws declaring the oil in the south as federal property and ceded oil wells to people of your region leaving those whose environment is raped, destroyed and polluted to extract this resource for Federal use with no recourse for a clean environment. Even the 13% derivation, u begrudge and call unfair.

Your people as of right demand monthly allocations just by reason of existence in 'one Nigeria ' and it is from 'Federal funds' appropriated from oil. Does the pepper soup eater, shoe buyer/wearer get his shoes free? Does the brewery operator get his raw materials by federal mandate or allocation? Why were the cocoa and farming revenues used according to u, to develop the oil sector not appropriated belonging to the FG? But ur state govts, in order to carry out capital projects and even pay salaries depend wholly on this one resource from the south.

Who then is the pest? Before the amalgamation and discovery of oil, were these 'flatheadz and chest-beaters' as ppl here like to call them not eating and surviving?

But u see op, trading blames will never work. The honest truth is sum certain people with d support of colonial masters assumed control of Nigeria and her resources then made it clear that they were born to rule and own all. Subsequently they did everything possible to control this oil sector, deliberately making the southerners feel left out and without a sense of belonging in their own land. No federal effort was made to see to the continued maintenance of the agricultural sector so it remains viable. It has been completely privately owned in other words, u grow ur crops, harvest and eat or sell at will. These days there are govt incentives to encourage this sector and still the improved produce/yield belongs to d private individuals. The one time a man from that region held office, it was like an insult in the face of the born to rule region and u couldn't wait to get him out. Every means was employed from making the country ungovernable to propaganda and everything in between. Now you're back in power and you're still looking for a pest when u or they only have to look in the mirror to find it.

Stop looking for pests, we need the right structure and leadership as well as an all-inclusive government for equitable representation. Let each region develop itself, put an end to this give me, feed me system we have and instead contribute to the centre for other international/external purposes then see whether Nigeria will not become a force to reckon with in d next decade.

ask him oo

There is no part of this country that is a pest. The Northerners, especially feed us in this country. Most of our staple come from there except for a few things down southwest. The southeasterners are highly productive too in trading. All of these add up to form a great and formidable country. What we need is the right leadership who can harness these resources for the prosperity of all. Nigeria is a great country but can be greater if we all come together and work towards a society where equity and justice reign.

Nobody said you are a pest. I think you meant parasite.

Another thread for tribal bullies... Y'all know the truth which is really bitter
Our biggest problem in this scam of a union called Nigeria is tribal sentiment as it can be seen in everything we do.
Truth be told oil has made everyone lazy, state govt arent doing enough to boost agriculture in their domain because they know they'll always share money remitted to the Excess crude account (SWF)
Mr OP you make the people from the other side look important because when they looks at the table they arent seeing anything to share from the sides you mentioned, Hence they call you lazy... And they fear when the oil dries up they'll be the ones to suffer the attendant natural disasters.

Hausa n Yoruba are crude oil pests.

NONSENSE! who are you deceiving@OP.. the FG have spend billions of Naira(gotten from crude oil) on irrigation projects for your hausa land..

Beautiful write up Aminho.

This is a tip of the iceberg. President Buhari's grand plans to revive the mining sector and develop our sold mineral resources, as well as the agricultural sector will see the North become totally independent of the south's oil in less than a decade, after the distraction of oil for so many years by the greedy and lazy military regimes.

By the time the export of Sokoto Biriri leather, Neem oil and Gum Arabic resumes, the textile factories of Kaduna are re-opened, the sugar mills of Jebba revived, and the Gold, Lead and Tantalite deposits of the Anka hills in Zamfara are commercially exploited to mention a few, the region will regain its pride of place in the mainstream of our national economy.

Who would believe that almighty NASCO was a product of the North with its thousands of products in the 80's and 90's. Although Dangote has filled those shoes and nobody in Nigeria can claim to not have one of his products in their houses, it would be wonderful if such successes can be replicated in the agricultural sector on a wider scale and with more participants.

Here,apart from oil & gas,ever heard of uranium?.One of the world sorted after solid mineral,used in Nuclear/Atomic Energy production?.Its demands is in the increase globally,and hence,equivalent to oil & gas in monetary value.Just use your google and search solid Minerals in Akwa Ibom.Abia state i learnt also has it.
We ain't only basking on oil & gas,we are have other solid resources.So gerrout,unam ikot.go and leave us alone.

All you know is open your mouth and drink 'oyel',but you dont know where it comes from.
Am not Igbo,but the propaganda against them can get a sane mind angry.
You ain't aware that Abia,Imo,has been feeding ediot like you?.And you ain't also aware that Anambra is among oil producin states?.
Are you also aware that some parts of Rivers state that produces oil,originally belongs to Imo state and Abia state,before state creation?.Ain't you aware that Delta North of Delta state though geopolitically belongs here,but mostly are Igbos,produces oil as well?.All you know is shout "hoyel",but you knows next to nothing.
If you talk of Industries,is southwest more industrialized than southeas?.Ever heard of Aba,Newi,Onitsha,etc?.BTW,most Industries in Lagos and few in Ogun,are also owned by same Igbos you are dissing,and other foreigners,but the industries/factories in the aforementioned locations in southeast,are indigenous companies owned by igbos,so,which zone is actually commanding the world of industries/factories in Nigeria?.Answer it yourself,dont be biased.
How about Agriculture?.Fine,North is ahead of other zones in Nigeria,in terms of Agriculture,but they are mostly subsistance farmers,and are crude in Agriculture,and also cant be said to be the only zone doing well in Agriculture.Ebonyi state southeast Nigeria is renowned for her Agricultural prowress.same goes to Cross River state,Southsouth Nigeria.Cross River apart from her oil wealth is known for her Agricultural exploit.most of the food we eat here,like garri/fufu,comes from northern cross river.places like Akankpa in cross river,is know for her Agricultural wealth.Infact,most of the food we eat here,either comes from Ebonyi & Cross River,or Benue state,and Benue state cant authoritatively said to be a Northern state.I wonder who tagged them northerners.
How about commerce?.
Who drags that with Igbos?.Just gerrout!
