go and check percentage of igbos who go to china and Dubai on weekly basis and come back and argue, how many yorubas travel, if Igbos Boycott MMA , the Airport will go bankrupt for lack of patronage and will become like Ibadan or Akure Airport

kettykings:


this is exactly the point i am driving , just as Lagos state has no reason to buy innosson same Anambra businesses have no reason to import via Lagos Sea port , use Lagos Airport or use services like ISP domiciled in Lagos

The deliberate and vengeful Boycotting of eastern made goods by the Lagos Government , like Innosson cars,

kettykings:



how many of the telco users in Lagos are actually yorubas you can make your points without resorting to insults, the possibility that not upto 30% uers of the telco services in Lagos , mowe, ibafor, are yorubas

SE will lose to SW if we were to apply your suggestion.

And if all SE can leave southwest..

You won't beat SW in economic war...
Population, Landmass, Land Viablity, Etc..

FlyoruB:


You should have included the entire Ogun, Oyo, Osun, and Ondo to your hallucinations. That data was presented for a reason. You should first of all ask why your own people in the SE have such abysmally low spending power in the igbo heartlands as the data shows, before trying to appropriate the numbers in other regions. Guy, you can't give what you don't have. Nothing on ground remotely suggests that Ogun, and Oyo populations have any significant igbo component (if you disagree, present concrete evidence to the contrary). Until igbos can demonstrate the ability to attract significant population shift to their SE heartland, delusions like the ones you are exhibiting here will remain just that.

Smh. This Op just can't help sounding petty all the time. Every data available shows that the SW is where the country's major consumer market lies, so only a foolish igbo man would listen to the infantile crap the Op is uttering. If igbo's boycott southwest, na demselves dem dey do.

what if i told you that more than 50% of the users of MMA are igbos and if there is a consensus among these people to use Abuja or PH Airport , the economic Impact will automatically turn PH and Abuja Airport into a major destination and will impact on the travel economy of those Cities

kettykings:


parts of Ogun like Agbara, Mowe , Ibafor all have very large igbo populations, i have some of my former staff living in those areas

Sammy07:


The Igbos thought they are that many in SW as the media portrays them.

FlyoruB:


Na wash jare my brother. They overestimate their own importance, partly because half of the time Yorubas just don't care to refute their lies. But data after data keep exposing their delusions of grandeur.

the 16 million internet users and 23 voice users in lagos are not 100% yorubas , the point is a good number of them are igbos residing in lagos and who are busy giving leverage to the south west economy

kettykings:
From the analysis of events in the past , present and Future , the possibility of a full blown economic war between the South East and South West is not far fetched.

Instances abound of how Fashola deported some individuals and dumped them at the onitsha had bridge, the continuous yearly harassment of igbo traders in Alaba, Ladipo, Oshodi and Lagos island , the enforcement of Iyaloja over markets dominated by igbos in Lagos.

The deliberate and vengeful Boycotting of eastern made goods by the Lagos Government , like Innosson cars, the more than 1000 check points of police and customs to frustrate igbo importers , the near critical activities of street urchins , cultist and omonile who harrass eastern businesses in lagos during and after elections , one is forced to foray into a possibility of an economic war between the East and the West in the future and how the war will pan out

Lets have a little clarity here.

1) The first auto assembly plant in Nigeria was built by General Motors (Bedford) in Lagos in 1959.

2) The Federal Military Government wanted Nigeria to be a producer of automobiles so it went into joint venture businesses with some foreign auto makers and state governments. The foreign auto makers were the technical partners, the state governments provided land and got around 20% shares in the business, while the Federal Government was the majority shareholder.

3) These assembly plants were:

a) Peugeot Automobiles of Nigeria (PAN), Kaduna.

b) Volkswagen of Nigeria (VON), Lagos

c) Anambra Motor Manufacturing Company (ANAMMCO), Enugu (they made Mercedes Benz trucks and buses)

d) National Truck Manufacturing Company (NTM), Kano (they made Fiat trucks and tractors)

e) Leyland Motor Company, Ibadan (they made Leyland trucks and buses)

f) Steyr Motors Nigeria, Bauchi (they made tractors and infantry vehicles for the Nigerian Army).



4) President Obasanjo sold Federal Government shares in these companies.

5) The state governments still have their shares in these companies and they have been working hard to ensure that the companies return to full production.

6) Some of the companies that bought the Federal Government shares are not able to run these companies properly and so state governments have been working hard to ensure that other companies take over the plants. For example, Anambra and Enugu state governments have worked hard to ensure that Cletus Ibeto and others take over ANAMMCO, while El Rufai is doing everything possible to ensure that Dangote takes over PAN. Fashola worked hard to ensure that Stallion Motors revived VON and that BRT buses were assembled there.


7) No sane state government would then leave the assembly plant that it has shares in, especially if that assembly plant is producing, to go and buy products from its competitor.

kettykings:
First , the East can respond by boycotting the following
1. Boycott of Lagos Ports for Niger Delta ports,
2. Boycott Lagos Airports for Abuja Airports for international Flights
3. Universities in the South West for Universities in the East and Niger Delta
4. South West Banks like GTB, Wema, First bank, Sterling for Pro East Banks
5. Relocation of the Nollywood back to the East
6. Boycott and putting a cap to patronage of companies that dont have any base in the East ,cadbury, unilever,nestle
7. Trade tax for goods with no manufacturing base in the east
8. boycott of poultry products from the west
9. stoppage of dumping of goods imported from western ports to the east

raumdeuter:


Pls how soon can you start all these

And most importantly relocate all people of SouthEast origin away from the SW

Sammy07:
Ahswear, the guy do not know the joy it'll give to Yorubas....

raumdeuter:


If they decide to leave, I am sure SouthWest govt will provide buses to take them to Onitsha under bridge as soon as possible

OP abeg can you hasten things and start on time

Move all your businesses and people to the East

No one is forcing you to patronize SW products and infrastructures and the earlier you decide to boycott the better

Then I will tell u that u suffer from grand delusion..because that is simply not true..tell us pls where u arrived at your figure..self delusion and aggrandizement is known to be the hallmark of your tribe..and it militates against your collective progress..

Joker!!!

Sad East don LOSE already.

You wan fight your PAPA!

Ask your brothers Lzaa and immhotep

Sammy07:


Don't mind them, they are hypocrites.

If northerners issue quit notice, they'll start begging because their income will suffer for it.

If westerners issue quit notice, they'll cry to the FG, they won't go..

The earlier they go, the better.
They should be fast about it self.

Oshigun:


bruv, leave for where? It is OP, perhaps due to living in a Cave, who does not appreciate on ground reality . P-Square et al will leave their Banana Island, VI, Ikoyi and Lagos life to go where? Even forget that level. How about everyday folks? I know an Igbo girl who lives in Lekki with her family and attends Uni in Osun. She was home for the Xmas in Enugu. Poor girl was bored out of her brain and could not wait to get back to Lagos.

I know a wealthy Igbo chap too who has lived all his life in Lagos yet now finds it hectic and is currently building a home in Abeokuta as the place he considers a "dream retirement" abode. Anywhere but the SE for that chap.

So how does OP propose to get Igbos like that, who happen to be the best they have to offer, on board to fight his economic war against the Yorubas? Biafra-obsessed Igbos never work with reality and this is why they are always embarrassing themselves with suggestions their own self-serving people will never go along since this would lead to self-harm for them.

kettykings:


an economic war goes beyond boycotting products, if igbos boycott lagos airport and choose Abuja , they impact will be crushing on lagos airport sustainability , the MMA will go bankrupt
