The East thrives on indigenous firms and companies, that's how it should be. Each state should be looking to build up its own internal capacity, not become slaves to Western Organisations.

As I said before, proximity to Lagos is the only reason why there's any multinationals in Ogun at all. Ogun is a very poor state, with a huge infrastructure deficit, that's why you'd NEVER show anyone what the state looks like. You know how poor it is.

Moving to another state, requires capital and business acumen - two things that most Yoruba people lack. That's why bank deposits in Igboland are the highest in Nigeria.

Again, Igboland has the lowest crime rate in Nigeria. You NEVER hear of any incidents in Igboland, but in the North and West, it's a common occurrence.

Ogun state planned an industrial area which was a cluster and they share common infastructure,it reduces cost of doing business,ogun state issues c of o in 48hrs to businesses that acquire land.,they have policies that supports people moving there .they are busy investing in seaports ,power and gas companies and also oil .

Benin republic,togo are Yoruba speaking people,acrra was founded by yorubas called ghans.the once in South America and America went because of slavery.but Yoruba territory extends to adjacee called potonovo in french a sea port area.

The Ga people are not Yoruba. Yoruba is only spoken in Nigeria and Benin, with one subgroup in Togo, but they're no more Yoruba than Kalabari people are Igbo.

olas24u:

Ijaws sold salves and we're slave owners,the slaves were mostly igbos from what he said .we are products of slavery.

If so many Igbo slaves were sold to Europeans, why is there very little Igbo influence in the West? Yoruba influence exists, because many Yoruba peolpe were taken as slaves. The slave routes still exist, along with verifiable histories of slave traders, like Madam Efunroye Tinubu.

A state that generates 20% of the revenue of Nigeria is poor?all southeast together contribute 4 to 5% .did you not see the IGR recently?anambra was the highest in the east and it was still lesser than some northern states.awolowo created industrial estates for the development of manufacturing ,and production,igbos killed it ,with a coup.ikeja industrial estate,ogba industrial estate, ilupeju industrial estate,oshodi isolo industrial estate,oluyole industrial estate.

Northern Nigeria is one of the poorest regions, not just in Nigeria but the entire world. Borno State, for example, has a 90% poverty rate, and a 30% literacy rate, which means, most people in that state can't read or write. Northern Nigeria in general has a literacy rate below 40%, with millions of children out of school, and millions of street beggars. So stop being disingenuous, because you're not fooling anyone, least especially the Western World, as they always talk about the glaring differences between the North and South in terms of wealth and development.

Yes, an industrial zone to leverage of its proximity to Lagos. Outside of that, Ogun State is a poor, backward state, with limited infrastructure:

The northernrs contribute more to the national purse. Apart from all does index .so the east is poor,the northerners are poor ,you both contribute less than 10% together .you get more from the federation account than you generate,so you cannot survive without the federal government.

You are landlocked ,so you don't have access to sea or land boder ,so slaves were shipped to other places.they did not ship people according to ethnic group,but on how strong you are and built.so most African Americans comw from west africa

Igbos left Lagos in 1966, guess who arranged for Igbos to return to Lagos and become 51% of the population ?

Poverty is defined by the living conditions of the people, not how much money a state gives to the national government in an inefficient and ineffective government system.

As I said before, Nigeria has an undeveloped taxation system, which means, much of the Igbo economy is informal. Yorubaland on the other hand has a bloated public sector, which is why their IGR is higher. Just look at the capital of Ogun, does it look like a city on the rise to you?

Igboland is not landlocked, Igboland has access to the sea from Anambra, Abia, Imo and Rivers State.

Slavery was illegal in most parts of Igboland during that time period, unlike in Yorubaland, where it formed an integral part of your economies.

From GDP ,you get per capitalism,so it's a rich state when measured ,interms of how much they have.they will improve infastructure.the taxation system is developed and and computerized with new innovation and professional tax professionals,you don't have the capacity to replicate same in the east if you were really industrious you pay taxes to your state.

So how come of have the caste system?how come some people are OSU.igbo land is land locked,nonaccesss to any sea and land boder, ikeweere you can claim but not rivers.tne reason why you want does ijaws, ibibios,kalabaris,isokos, is because of the sea.they are not igbos.asari said they are ijaws and baifra belongs to them and not you,the bait of baifra is just next to them and not you.

China is rich and has shanties,India has the biggest slums in the world and yet it a rich country,you have been trying to define poor interms of environment and architecture,but that is not how it is measured in economics.i thought you will change you arguments,but you are concentrating on architecture and environment,.the people are educated,they have access to health care and are civilized and all the development index they mange and average.

The World Bank defines poverty in absolute terms. The bank defines extreme poverty as living on less than US$1.90 per day> (PPP), and moderate poverty as less than $3.10 a day. It has been estimated that in 2008, 1.4 billion people had consumption levels below US$1.25 a day and 2.7 billion lived on less than $2 a day.
