Well said!
Honestly how can entire ethnic group with all their professional will allow mediocre like GEJ to be feed on their intelligents RAW? Instead of asking him to sign a written agreement to that effect they are here celebrating stuupidity. Always despoiling the mind hard working igbo mind? What a shame!

I guess they should be equally expecting the air craft industry he promise them. Lmao!

When jona was making that kind of statement to sultan the aboki man say make them bring paper write everything wey him talk and sign the bobo cut out. lol



My initial thought was that the likes of you would've respected my thread. I don't engage in virtual tribal warfare and so by now u should have known my antecedents to conform.

Guy, most times your posts on Ndigbo seems so vile. So unnecessarily rude. If Ndigbo did not support GEJ, who would they have supported? Is it Buhari or Atiku or even Babangida? Whether we liked it or not, there's no way Ndigbo would have supported another person than GEJ.

I had my doubts initially about him but thought all these things through, before I relaxed. When there's only one feasible candidate to support, how realistic would a written agreement be? Its either we support him or we don't vote at all which would have worsened our situation.

You're here thinking Ndigbo never thought of a so-called written agreement in the first place? Forget politics for a moment, you often forget we come from the same region, have widely intermarried to the point that majority of Ijaw have Igbo blood and you still think it would have been practical to have an agreement? It was better we actually didn't have a written agreement if u know about the politics of the eastern region.

And you're here writing as if there were other choices. Leave people to celebrate if they want to. No need to always try to derail Igbocentric threads.

As long as we have David Mark and his likes with Bankole's likes at 3rd and 4th positions respectively SE and Nigerians should forget such a promise. Time will tell.

If Igbos could single handedly develop Lagos and Abuja to wat it is today grin , imagine what they wud make of their own tuff if only the federal government wud build or let them build a seaport in onitsha. ( that's if the river Niger was properly dredged ooh).

Grant them full international status to their airports.

Gives them licences to explore and manufacture

Grant them patent n protect their technological and intellectual property rights.

Grant them unfeted liberty to compete vigorously with the dangotes n otedolas as free Market dictates.

Seriously, . .  . These potentials needs to be unleashed.

I say amen to any of those plans in the article. Let anyboody accuse me of celebrating, i don't give a toss.

@Ezeuche, i understand. I normally feel that way about things too. But sometimes, i feel quite optimisitic.

@Alj-harem, u don see am. Enemies of progress have converged here.


Unfortunately, ibo people do not bestow on us the same respect and if you want sample I fit provide am quick quick. Let ibo people on NL learn how to control their bad bele and quit their needless rubbish and ignorant talk.

Are you people not tired of all these excuses?

Who is holding their hands and preventing them from doing anything? Are other states not building sea ports, aiports, refineries, trade zones, new cities from scratch?

You people are just too lazy?


lol @ ibo people developing Lagos? Must you people always sound ignorant and delusional? What did you develop beyond your spare parts kiosk? lmao

U want me to provide the link too as if what? Common man, chill. This thread wasn't opened for tribal fights.

You are talking of infrastructures still  being developed from 2007-2011, yet to be completed. Come on, you can do better. Dig em out. I hope you can bring out stuffs that was not contributed to by Igbos.
You should be damn sure that a big chunk of private investors in those ones that you mentioned are of Igbo origin. Search, you will see.

If a poster posts a message which contradicts your thoughts, wouldn't it be common sense to face that particular poster instead of labelling a whole people negatively?

So if I post something about lagos that u don't agree with, instead of facing me, you label Ndigbo with such derogatory words and sentences which really is awful? Do u know the thoughts of other Igbos to do such?

This forum is quite very silly.

I wouldn't bother if I were you. Eko Ile is one really sick mofo with really deep psychological issues; all you have to do is mention SE or SS and he appears like a vulture with his group of hangers on from forest states (all low self esteemed "belongers" pretending to come from Lagos).
Eko Ile is the king of lepers and depraved bigots, his followers are; alj harem, rhino.d5m, ekt_bear. A true pack of low lifes.

Most of the ones I looked into have nothing to do with Igbos. The railroad for example, construction work is being done by CCECC.

Anyway, it isn't as if Lagos has ever been in a situation where it needed investment for a project and was begging Igbos to invest. Having access to an investment opportunity is the state doing a favor for you, not vice versa.

That is what is so annoying about all of this to me. . . the tail is thinking it is wagging the dog rather than vice versa.

Or are these billion-dollar projects, is the money being sourced from Igboland? The South African and Australian banks that provided a loan for Lekki Toll Road, is that Igbo owned?

To be quite blunt. . . in no way shape or form have you developed Lagos. Buying some land and building a property on it is nice, but pretty much everyone is doing this. It wasn't as if you met a virgin, undeveloped territory and  built it into a juggernaut.

At any rate, if I am wrong, feel free to demonstrate. Show us how Igbos have "single handedly" built Lagos.

Are these multi-national corporations with headquarters there all Igbo owned?

I'd love to hear exactly how I am wrong.

In any case, I hope it doesn't puzzle you guys why you are so thoroughly disliked throughout most of Africa (not trying to say it to be offensive, but it is what it is.)

Trade and commerce is not one-sided. . . everyone benefits. So for one side that benefits claiming that it is doing the other side a favor is highly arrogant and offensive.

Well, just wanted you to know that Igbos played a big part in building Lagos state. I don't know the rate of real estate investments by Igbos, but from my judgement, they are of great deal. I alone have homes and few ware houses in Lagos state. In Banana iseland, where my last investment is, Igbos own majority of the lands there. I also know some areas where Igbos have bought up most lands in Lagos state. So, I feel Igbos invest pretty much in Lagos state.

That being said, Lagos is way more attractive than most Northern, SW and SE states. So, I expect that people that are asking why Igbos don't invest in SE should ask why Yorubas from Ondo, Ekiti, Osun, Oyo etc don't do same in their states.
It is about strategic importance and attractiveness of a place. Lagos have built a reputation as an important investment point, so the huge investment by Nigerians should not be a basis of asking questions about why they don't invest in their home states.

My brother. Buying a piece of land and building a home on it is not "single-handedly" building Lagos. What does that even mean? You aren't buying the land and building it for a charity, yes? It is an investment opportunity. And key word is opportunity.

So you mean to tell me that if someone gives you an investment opportunity, you are the one doing them a favor? Rather than vice versa?

If my buddy gives me a stock tip and I make a killing off it it, the corporation I profited from is the one doing me a favor?

Let me tell you something, ibo people are very selfish, if they are in any way capable of developing anything, they'll do it back home first, in fact., they'll deny you and prevent you from catching up.

Is it commons sense that if it's possible in Lagos state, it should be freekin easy in your own village?

The silly nonsense defies logic anyways.

Are they not the same people sitting on their hands begging for everything from the federal government, ?
