The SE is largely very capitalistic and thrive in a survival of the fittest environment, while the SW and the north are largely socialistic and unfortunately have created such culture in Nigeria through the backward quota system. This country is not suitable for the igbo nation regardless of whatever peanuts they get already.

This is gold.

Some old Yoruba men still living with their parents stay on faceless forum all day long, posting and spamming threads with irrelevant pictures while their counterpart across the Niger is working hard all day long to better their life and building houses both at home and other part of Nigeria and some tout will sit down on social media wasting away their energy and life by posting houses built by hard working people.

vanbonattel:


Do you mind these confused people, anything good in south east causes them serious pains and anguish. But we are not looking back, we are not competing with the backward Nigerians, we are now attracting international organizations, producing cars and leading in business.

Na God Win!

What's your state?

but UN saw all these pix naa,but scientific parameters revealed SE is the safest.pls you could still Google it Oga!

omobaekiti:
if I hear,how about the trucks that was burnt at Onitsha head bridge and dangote driverd that were almost lynched if not for intervention of soldiers.all these happened during the protest at Onitsha.

is that wat u heard from ilejemeje where u are hiding

Please let that fool posting fake pictures of Lagos and tagging it Ijebu abi Ibadan.
Only those who haven't been to the SW will believe all the trash.
Ibadan, Ogun, Oshogbo, Ekiti and other dirty villages are there but he wont post them.Even in Lagos, let him post the pictures of areas like Bariga,Ikotun,Egbeda,Idimu,Ijegun,Mile2,ejigbo,Ajegunle etc.
In Ogun State, the list is endless, places like Ota alone is enough.
But the Mango Head Yorubas keep deceiving themselves

YorubaHighness:


Trash

trash because you have nothing meaningful to say

Etern:


Ever wondered why the biggest stakeholders of Igbo descent don't think in your line of argument? It is because all the issues you raised exist in all countries and it does not prevent their people from developing and achieving the best they can. Have you ever thought about industrialists of Igbo descent making it big in the huge market you are giving excuses about? What do they see that you do not see? On the business side have thought about the worth of Igbo peoples holdings outside the south east? You breakaway advocates never comes up with a good enough reason for your demands. (Ojukwu's reason was the pogrom but his father told him not to cry more than the bereaved but he refused) The Igbo will be the greatest losers in a disintegrated Nigeria, the same way they lost their holdings and properties during and after the civil war. No one destroys his own, if you have a good stake in this big market you will not be calling for its destruction. I will stop here.

ikwere people seized all the Igbo's belongings after d war.today ikwere are the most poorest in Nigeria.nowhere to be compared with the Igbos.....Nigerian govt seized all the money that Igbo's had n gave them only 20pounds..today they are billionaires... so don't bother yourself...wat an Igbo man needs to prosper is just his life.

The problem with you people is living too much on sentiments instead of facts, strategies and basic human realities. Many of you know little or nothing about your own history and Nigeria's history hence coming up with bogus and irrelevant argument.

Your failed leaders are fond of pointing fingers and blaming other people for their incompetence and lack of care for their own people.


I really need to school you people with facts and honest realities.


FG's presence in Lagos was limited to Lagos Island and the only FG projects in Lagos state was the airport which they have in the east too, bad and horrible un maintained FG roads, eko bridge, 3rd mainland bridge and old and neglected FG secretariat.


There is nothing like lopsided FG development anywhere and every corner of Nigeria is a victim of the same FG neglect and decay, Lagos is just lucky simply because of colonization, Awolowo and credible, skillful and competent subsequent leaders from Mobolaji Johnson to Jakande, Tinubu, Fashola and now Ambode.

Lagos was already developed before Nigeria became a country.

Let's go back to before independence and during the regional governments when the north, southeast and SW started on the same level playing field and also when all the regions controlled their own destiny and before the civil war.

The North had groundnut, the SE had coal and what I don't know and the SW had cocoa and rubber The premiers of all the regions were responsible for developing and progressing their respective regions via whatever administrative skills and intelligence at their disposal.

Lagos is an industrial state not because if any FG action since all the industries and industrial estates responsible for our major industrial out put today from Ijeka industrial, to matori, mushi, ilupeju and apapa industrial estates ware built by the old western region under Awolowo before Nigeria became a country so exactly what's FG got to do with Lagos state.

Lagos state is reaping from what Awolowo and the old western region planted before independence and before Nigeria as a country.

We know apart from the industrial estates, he created Oodua group of companies that;s still thriving today with major companies and hotels

Now, can you please tell us what Zik planted for you in the SE to reap from? Nothing

FG left Lagos state decades so what again is Lagos state's business with the FG? Is the FG giving Lagos state any free ride or free derivations or special status money? No

Lagos is thriving because of good and competent leaders and managers, not because of any FG investments.

Lagos make money from IGR and loans which they spend on infrastructures and government services, they scout for investments from all over the world relentlessly and they get great results.

Even other states in SW are following Lagos state with the same economic plan, we saw Ogun yesterday with their major economic summit

How many investments summits have any state in the SE organized?

What are the leader in SE doing economically to develop that region? Nothing.

The leverage SE leader and people in the SE have a FG the father and mother mentality, they depend on the government for everything and they blame the same FG government for their incompetence and inability to develop their region.

You wan't airport, you blame FG, you want road, you blame FG, you want bridge, you blame FG.

But Ogun want bridge, they build it, ekiti want airport, they build their own, Osun want airport, they build their own, Yola want airport, they build their own si why can you not do anything on your own?

Only the SE sit on their hands, cry, yell and blame other people and the FG for everything.

If you can not do anything for yourself now, how exactly are you going to do anything with your biafra?


You can beat your chest all you want, but we know the truth, we know your capacity and we know what happen and how you did not achieve anything during regional administration when we all controlled our destiny..

This one thinks it's by posting pictures, oh I see how lower your IQ is. Haba.

Abagworo:
Kudos to Southeast Nigeria for this success. It means our people are busier with their different occupations than engaging in crime. Thats one of the reasons we should resist IPOB in its attempt to turn our peaceful and safe zone into a war theater like Northeast.

i dont expect to agree with what i will tell u now.

I am not a member of IPOB, i was on ground during their protests at Onitsha. The guys had only flag and their songs and prayers.

Those guys that burnt trailer were not IPOB members. FG/STATE GOVERNMENT planned and committed that evil.

Remember they claimed that mosque was burnt down, but it was all lies. Obiano “rebuilt“ a burnt down mosque which no one saw the picture in less than 2weeks. Funny Obiano.

If IPOB wants to burn trailer they wont go to burn isolated trailer. They would have burnt hundreds because where they re at the bridge head so many trailers were parked their with their drivers and boys eating and all that.

Government needed to do what they did to tag IPOB members violent, so that they can go after them.

Generalyemi:

I was at Onitsha head bridge when this happened, I was on my way to Orlu for business,they even spoil my parole as I don dey fantasise how I go take dismember the olosho wey dey for uku aki in Orlu...I am a confirm nwafor but I hate it when people lie about issues,telling me that the IPOB protest was peaceful...peaceful my hairy bum

Lmaooo. Even your people plenty for Oyo and Ogun state Keep lying to yourself, but I'm not here to argue, so swerve.

it is because u r not enlightend thats why u dont know that there is no country in this world where you wont see Igbo Union.

I cant argue with you because yu have never moved out of your region. You dont know what the outside world have to offer.

So park well.

how do you know I would not agree listen nwannem as you where there I was there too...I don't deal with or try to unravel conspiracy theory, that truck that was burnt belong to a particular northerner and those that burnt it took a very deliberate action... there are so many incidence I even tried to take some pix at Osisioma junction at Aba and my phone was seized by some ipob guys if not for the intervention of one of my good pal living in owerenta they would have smashed the phone...traders at hospital road by ASA would tell you better or those guys selling tiles and glass on your way to ariaria market (forgotten the name of the street) you may tell me that some tout hijacked the peaceful protest I will agree but that it was totally peaceful.....mbanu.

Why wouldn't north be unsafe when it has turned to a war region all in the name of fighting for Allah.

Bollinger:



I keep asking why Nigerians don't like exploring.....no exposure. Non whatsoever. Pollution is the same as filth. Beijing is the most polluted city in the world and the air is the dirtiest. Ever been there? I have. People often wear masks on really bad days. I don't know about you, but i'd rather not get lung cancer than live in such an industrialized country. Also, when the statistics said Aba was the most polluted, they were talking about the garbage and unsanitary living conditions in that area just like anywhere else in Nigeria. Compare that to Germany. Another country i spent a couple of years in. One of the most industrialized countries in the world but with the least amount of pollution in it's atmosphere and environment. Even the way you dump plastic bottle or worse batteries will earn you a heavy fine. I would like you to take your advice and also try and explore. Google is not always your friend.

Pollution is the introduction of contaminants into the natural environment that cause adverse change. Pollution can take the form of chemical substances or energy, such as noise, heat or light. Pollutants, the components of pollution, can be either foreign substances/energies or naturally occurring contaminants.

I have come to deduce that Yoruba have infiriority complex . with what I am seeing in this thread

Beautiful. I'll keep this post for the future.

Noneroone:
The WHO report states that cities in SE are most polluted in the country. While pollution is not good, it shows that rapid industralization is taking place in the region.

For those who misinterpreted pollution as "filth" they should be worried that no SW city made the list.

Now SE is the safest region in the country. It is because there is no omoonile, agbero, areaboys, alaye, boko haram etc in the east

''no omoonile, agbero, areaboys, alaye, boko haram, etc'' Wow this is complete truth and it makes the Igbo man unique. The traces of these vices you will see among a few miscreants were learnt from others especially the south west and north. Well said brother!!!

Don't forget that to kill a human being (Igbu Ochu) in Igbo land is anathema. Whoever kills no mater his position is ostracized unless such a person committed suicide on his own. The Igbo believe in live and let live. This world view placed us as endangered species among evil minded neighbours who do not have any qualms killing and maiming and stealing. Neighbours whose culture understood and welcomed the autocracy of kingship; even accepted serfdom as a social status for some people.

Privileges among the Igbo are won on the platter of individual contribution to the society. Our neighbours love this culture because it stands out as one of the most advanced stages of human development. If the Igbo were not paired with rest of Nigeria especially the Yoruba and Hausa / Fulani they would have achieved feats at similar level with rest of the developed world.

I am very proud to be Igbo.

Beautiful. I'll keep this post for the future.

While you keep this post let me ask you one question. Why was the south east the fastest growing economy in the entire world during the years prior to the civil war? In that era Yoruba and Hausa were not in a position as they are today to dictate the affairs of government where they dispense dividends of governance on the basis of bigotry and ethnicity. I know most detractors think that the destruction of Igbo is nearly complete and hence bring up lame excuses to justify the Igbo mans condition, ascribing it to internal Igbo social dynamics other than the programmed marginalization over the years from the wicked central government at Abuja. Igbos are the most progressive Africans. So that post you quoted and so much believe in is complete trash.

It's okay to continue beating your chest.
Had Yorubaland had its own Republic, we'd have achieved MORE greatness. We turned Lagos to a Megacity and we're currently replicating the same blue print in Ogun and Akure. In Yorubaland alone, we've monopolized the industry hub and technology hub, now we shall do the same with agriculture in Oyo.
We created a community that makes other Nigerians want to live amongst us and practice our culture.

It is great to be Yoruba! We're destined for greatness.
