Sad thing is that their States and region are regressing horribly but they have no issues with that.

Fighting Yorubas daily is their main obsession in life instead of fighting for the emergence of visionary and competent leaders who can attract protects like this to their barren SE.

You see this is the passive aggressive behavior we talk about here that you are exhibiting. Who has been insulting who now? Isn't it not you. US citing their embassy here serves no purpose but theirs because that is where they have bulk of their applications and because the number is increasing such that Walter Carrington street gets blocked they need something larger. So there is really nothing fantastic, tell me why would US build a large consulate in China or UK? they won't because their people don't need to rush to US embassy and fight for Visa like as if it is heaven you are going to.
But alas daft people like you are screaming and showing your myopic nature because of a comment by US ambassador on the size of the new consulate. The Americans would always look at you like animals it is this behavior of yours that contributes to racism against the black man.

I don't know about India, Thailand or Malaysia.

But I certainly know that Lagos should be grateful and they are.

It's bigots like you that are not.
I know about India and South Africa they do not appreciate the development that the great developers brought to their lands

Imagine, 223 Billion, when people are suffering

We need to be critical in our thinking. #223 Billion is america that will be spending it, not Nigeria.

Mind you, it's mostly our workforce that will build the consulate. So our people will get jobs and make money from them.

lol @ developers..

Sadly, you develop the whole world, the only place you refuse to develop are your towns and villages, the poorest and
unproductive region in Nigeria where you have zero freedom and can not go out without getting killed or roasted like suya..

Why will you not say they are the poorest in southern nigeria whereby you have never even travelled to anywhere else apart from living somewhere in Ijebu-ode and be typing nonsense. I don’t blame you I blame the foolish igbos that allow you people to always have a reason to want to talk trash. Apart from Lagos which is understandable, and a few places in ogun which are almost Lagos, where do you think in yorubaland is more developed or richer than any state in south east?

So, we should reject hundreds of billions of dollars worth of investment and jobs for Nigerians because you are too poor and can not afford fees for Visa and or money to go abroad.

The fact that you are poor, hateful and bitter doesn't mean other Nigerians are like you.

What is the essence of development if your mind and mentality is tribally and religiously tied to a certain viewpoint. which development are you even talking about? Is Nigeria a developed country? i can bet it that in your own lifetime, your country would never be called a developed nation. you think say na by buildings up and down? what of STANDARD OF LIVING? shebi na your brothers dey sleep outside for night because light no dey for 9days now. yeye dey smell.

What I love about this development is the fact that where the US goes, others follow.

You lie


South East is the only region that you'll see a typical interior villages look like urban area with sophisticated and seasoned buildings. The only thing you'll use and know that it is Village is because of mechanical solidarity relationship there. They try so much for themselves.

Show me any Yoruba village like that.? Yoruba does not start and end jn Lagos that all Yorubas pride themselves with.

And who who told you the igbos cares about the zoo politics. Politics is meant for lazy uselesssss nonentities thieves. Igbos are too focus to be distracted by zoo politics.

You have time to be replying that dunce that does not travel and does not know anything about Igbo states. Believe you me that guy doesn’t even have a house or live in Lagos to start with. They just come online and talk because they can write cheap English.

It doesn’t have to change the price of garri. What maters, however, is that the construction workers that will work on the project would be able to earn enough money to buy garri irrespective of the price. Also, more staff will be recruited to work in the embassy once the project is completed and they will also earn enough to buy garri comfortably.

Congratulations to Lagos! The state that can’t just stop winning.

To be honest with you the Future is Nigerian

It is those that refuse to submit to God's Plan for Nigeria that he will throw away

Even Oduduwa saw God's Plan for Nigeria 1000 years ago and fully embraced it

What is God's plan for Nigeria? Lord Lugard brought different nations together for economic reasons. Before then Odua nation was doing well, when we had regional governments, Western region was ahead even doing better than the government at the center. Odua nation is the true glory and sunshine of the black race.

The United States Government has said its new $537million (approx N223,257,750,000) in Lagos will be its largest consulate in the world when completed in 2027.

Ambassador Mary Leonard and Lagos Governor Babajide Sanwo-Olu stated this at the Eko Atlantic City in Lagos during the ongoing groundbreaking ceremony for the consulate.

Yeah, they will bring every single person that will work on the construction project from America. From the Engineer to the mason, the daily laborer, the plumber, the electrician, the tiler, the carpenter, the POP guy, the screeder, the security etc. No single Nigerian will be engaged on the project.

I don’t use “brown roof” with anybody. I don’t care about anybody’s roofs because this is Nigeria, a shithole at that, many villages are poor although there’s a category to it. Then again, apart from Lagos and ogun state I will still repeat myself no other states in Yoruba land comes close to any states in south east, maybe ebonyi due to poor governance at that time, the so called VAT we know how the government manipulates figures to discredit the south east, we all know no government does anything to favor south east because they have some of the dumbest politicians. Lagos and Ogun has more VATs than south east, agreed but no other states put together in yorubaland again comes close if they will tell you the truth but this is Nigeria, just like census, they will manipulate the figures and keep the south east down so people won’t invest there.
