Nigeria Is Potentially Rich, What Does The East And West Have In Potential? by Amaechi2023(m): 9:33am On Mar 23, 2021
Nigeria has always been a potentially Rich country but has lost its ability to utilize it's potential.
the south south we know are the largest with their crude oil, how about other regions??

the north has massive Gold reserves, agriculture, oil and ajao kuta steel in potential and are yet to be fully utilized.

what resources does the west and East have in potential that can make them a great nation?


I don't want to believe empty barrel makes the loudest noise..

Since the south west and the east have nothing and it is only the south south and the north that have aboundant resources then it is good we separate so that you can enjoy your resource. Your masters in the north know that it is not true and that is why they do not want separation. Know this fact today that if there is separation those regions you are mocking will be better off.

Lol, I will overlook your obvious biasness and enlighten you.

Agriculture? Gold? Ajaokuta steel? How many countries has agriculture made rich? What volume of gold does Northern Nigeria produce, is it up to the fraction of what Ghana produces? How rich is Ghana despite having crude oil, tourism and far lesser population compared to Northern Nigeria?

What do you mean by ajaokuta steel? Or you mean Iron ore? Is Ajaokuta steel functional? What volume of iron ore does Northern Nigeria produce?

The fact you are mentioning raw materials and minerals as what will make you a great nation shows your ignorance.

Now, to what Igbos and Yorubas have, the two groups have a large diaspora population which can yield more forex than all your agriculture, iron ore and what have you combined!!

The two groups have a relatively highly educated population that is necessary to navigate this modern times and global economy.

The two areas still have cocoa and palm produce even though it ain't their reliable assets. They also have some amount of crude oil to help their local economies to an extent.

What makes nations rich today is not agriculture or solid minerals but tech industry, software development, production of finished goods, commerce and tourism. Even having crude oil alone without a commensurate human resources can't make a country successful.

And with all you claim you have you find it difficult to live at peace. See how you are killing yourselves like animals. But then human life has no value to you. You are always hungry for power ,you have it and you messed up everything. Incompetent set of people. The 2023 you talk about may not even come. Before 2023 insecurities must have taken over your entire region.

Bro, I know you're catching fun but the joke is on the North you think you are doing image laundering for not the SW with the brightest economic future of all Nigerian regions.

Check the article below for the real outlook of the North you are clearly a slave of. Please look, with an open mind, at the reality of the SW you are trying to disparage ignorantly to appreciate people like you are the problem of the North and Nigeria at large.

Sorry to disappoint you bro but the North has nothing and is ridiculously far behind as the Northern author of the article below admits.

You should be crying over the sentence below, from the article, that shows what North is mainly about, rather than come here attempting to mock those far better off than Northerners.

"Currently its most distinguishing characteristic is grinding poverty"

http://www.gamji.com/article6000/NEWS7879.htm


The Northern Economy

The North which geographically is 719,435 Square Kilometers or 79% of Nigeria’s landmass and has 75 million or 53.6% of Nigeria’s population has its economy as a consequence of various reforms introduced, been totally grounded. Today, the North has ownership and/or control of no more than 3% of banking assets and 2% of insurance assets and 10% of industrial assets.

True, the North has a huge landmass but this has remained under exploited due to jettisoning of time tested policies of price support (as a result of abolishing of marketing boards without putting alternatives) and abandonment of extension services and quality control.

Also, the North has a huge population but the population has remained largely uneducated and/or half educated because of near failure of governance in certain States and Local Governments. Currently its most distinguishing characteristic is grinding poverty.

Recent poverty statistics indicate that the poverty level of States in the North has been on the increase in the last 9 years and reached over 80%. Its two commercial and industrial nerve centers (Kano and Kaduna) have seen industrial capacity utilization decline to an all time low of less than 10%.

The textile, automobile and beverages companies that thrived so impressively in the 1970s and 1980s have collapsed rendering thousands jobless. Although hydroelectricity is generated at Kainji Dam and in lesser quantities at Shiroro Gorge and at several smaller sites, the entire mechanisms are run on very obsolete equipment and the performance is consequently very epileptic and unsuitable for meaningful economic activity.


South West Economy

South Western Nigeria with a Land Mass of 76,852 square kilometres and population of 25.2 million today owns and/or control 60% of the nation’s industrial capacity, 44% of banking assets, 67% of insurance assets and is house to the nation’s three deep sea ports of Apapa, Tin Can Island and Roro; the busiest international airport of Ikeja, three thermal stations of Egbin, Papalanto and Omotosho.

Today, its three major industrial estates of Agbara, Ikeja and Otta are all linked to gas under the West African gas pipeline plan and piping of gas is ongoing from Otta to Abeokuta.

Added to these, the South Western population today is the most educated as western education came through there and education as a resource was democratized since the early sixties. Geographical location, democratization of western education, availability of resources enhanced in last 9 years and some empowerment during the Obasanjo administration have collectively enabled the South Western economy to rank as first of the four economies in Nigeria.

Today, the South West as a region can boast of having a defined growing middle class and is perceived to have at least 20,000 of its indigenes with net worth of over N100m each. Take it out of Nigeria, the South West economy with is defined growing middle class and resources, will be one of the fastest growing economies in the world.

the southwest that is so powerfull yet has the highest dept profile in the country.
so much of this strenght and high level of average individuals but yet more than 50% of it's medium class youth surviving through internet fraud and anoda 20% from ritualism.
they are so powerful yet every Western state apart from Lagos are oweing it's workers.

how deluded you think you can fool other with one same biased article.

well to be honest, the writer identified the weakness of the north and over emphasized on it but was too biased to identify the agricultural, land resources and political strenght of the said north.
Mr writer I don't want to derail myself with this your repeated copy and paste post cos it suits your ego.
next time depend so much on practical reality.

You're just a poorly educated, ignorant and empty mischief-maker who does not appreciate that his intellectual superior are in abundance in cyberspace.

Human resources, Mr.Olodo, are the real and pivotally definitive riches of a people. Odoyo. In that regards the North host a largely illiterate people that constitute 87% of the entire poverty-ridden people living in Nigeria.

What is agriculture or large, fertile and rich land worth in the hands of an illiterate and nomadic people whose mindset is still stuck in year 1908?

Nothing the North has the SW does not have in greater abundance with a population that has the education and skill set to optimally utilize those opportunities if they focus on doing so.

What exactly are you trying to do here other than embarrass yourself and display a crass ignorance of Nigeria's socio-economic reality to the entire world?
