Watch how Nigerians will say they rather suffer from insomnia abroad than remain in Nigeria.

Coconut head people. People wey suffer for Buhari hand for 8 years and still went ahead to vote Tinubu. cheesy cheesy
You dey mind them. They ought to have voted Obi so that he can transform Nigeria the way he transformed Anambra.

Oga how did they pokenose into people's affairs? You guys are now confessing gradually amd the truth is slowly coming out. You cannot cut the nose to spite the face, in your bid to denigrate the igbos, you have succeeded in embarassing the country. These people cannot rate us because evil people like you denigrate and sell out your fellow Nigerians because of tribalism. Try and stop tribalism it always rubs off on you one way or the other.
Between my people and your people who is doing tribalism?

Lagos State has been employing igbos into important positions since the time of Tinubu as governor in 1999. Local government chairmen in Apapa/Amuwo Odofin/Ojo etc. Kindly tell me how many Yorubas your people have supported in your land?

During the 2023 election period, an Igbo lady working with the Lagos State government was seen writing all sorts of nonsense about the same state that gives you employment. Like I don't understand, what sort of hatred is that?

What my people cannot try in your land, you are ready to do that in my land and you expect us to sit and watch you?

Ordinary Senate seat, Bianca contested for in Anambra, y'all sent her back to go and contest in her father's state; Enugu state. If you can do that to someone from your region who are we to try that in your region?

Well, your migration to SW states is a blessing to us anyway. You work and live in our region and pay taxes to our government. So it's a plus for us.

Can you people just respect yourselves. It is not today we have been having leaders of igbo vommunities outside igbo land. It is you guys with bigotry that started this nonsense in [b]SW claiming the Eze title is a rival title whereas you all are quiet as scared cats with a fulani seriki. [/b]I always ask myself do you earnestly think when you sell out your country man because of tribalism that other south Africans will respect you? You people should continue until you use your own hand to set this country on fire with tribalism anf bigotry, by then it will hit you hard.
Alaye swerve jooooooh. when you see this fulanis/hausas in their clusters; they mind their businesses and they don't pokenose into the political affairs of the locales. But you guys won't mind your businesses. Pokenosing into the political affairs of the locales and insulting them.

DoTheNeedful:
The Niger Delta people moved on faster from Jonathan's 2015 defeat than our South East brothers. Tinubu, who lead the campaign against Jonathan then, even got almost 40% of the votes in the Niger Delta in 2023.

The Easterners are yet to forgive Tinubu. Funny enough, they seem to have forgiven the other people that campaigned against Jonathan in 2015, but not Tinubu and the SW. People like Saraki, Dino Melaye, Amaechi, Atiku, El rufai, and so on seem to have been forgiven by our Eastern brothers. I honestly don't know why?@
The answer is Jealousy and pride! You envy those that are greater than you but the pride in them will not make them admit that this person is greater than them.

Abia is praising Otti based on their earning ls and mismanagement of previous administration.

The case is the reverse in Lagos. Same party for over 3 decades! What has been their major achievement I ask you? Don’t shift the goal post!

You are a Lagosian and should be able to mention one thing that makes you proud of the state!

You trillions in debt, huge revenue and FG allocation, and still struggling with healthcare, education, security and water?

Are we making sense here?

I am a hardcore supporter of APC. But of truth need be said, let’s say it!

Where are Lagos state trillions going!

What can you say about Lagos? It is better than Afghanistan?
You can decide to relocate to Ciudad de la Paz or Libreville and if you prefer Afghanistan; it's your choice bro. If people are praising Otti and can turn Obi to a Messiah for his performance in small Anambra. I also have the liberty to I praise and cherish Lagos State and her administrators.

Q
HacheNoire:
You know the problem I am having with you?

You compare Lagos with the worst!

So because the menace happens in other states, the Lagos state government should be compelled to abide by such menace too?

Are we making sense here? So if Boko Haram is thriving in the North comfortably, when we experience such in Lagos, we should not be proactive since it happens in other state in the North?

Is the governor for the people or a set of cabal? He knows how things are done! That I am certain!

I don’t want to really say what I am not certain about but 3 proooe confirmed that Agbero has been banned in Edo.

I still will repeat, LASU is not the best university in Nigeria on any terms excluding diversity. LASU! Same one in Ojo and Ikorodu?

Let’s even imagine it is the best. Based on your exposure, does it amaze you or make you sad?
We have a saying in Yoruba that 'nani nani la n nani, oun ti a ba ni la n' nani.
Meaning: "It is what we have that we celebrate; it is what we possess that we enjoy."

The other day, as enlightened and exposed Kalu Aja is he was celebrating Julius Berger logo in Abia state on Twitter, some were celebrating water fountains. People are celebrating Alex Otti for constructing 2-4km of roads.

So bikonu, please don't gaslight me with those talks of comparing Lagos with the worst bla bla bla.

Abia state population is x2 of Bayelsa. And Abia state has more industries and small businesses than Bayelsa. At least, they can manage the 60MW

HacheNoire:
You have to note that population growth is what makes these cities great and same time makes derive massive IGR.

The likes of California, New York, London or Texas are driven by high population.

How do you justify that in a small state like Lagos, pipe borne water is a population thing? How did the cities I mentioned achieve that? Considering same party has governed for over 3 decades. How did a small state like Libreville achieve such?

You are comparing Lagos with the worst and why it is the best. Which state can be compared to Lagos in terms of revenue? Let’s compare it with Accra, Abidjan or Pretoria.

Same applies to university. LASU is not even the best in Nigeria! Academically or infrastructural wise.

So where exactly is that massive revenue and debt going to that makes you justify that in 2026, population hinders clean water!

You also mentioned NURTW is registered which I agree, is it that the governor cannot see the menace? Same one that goes to London and New York often? Does he mean when he travels, he doesn’t see how things are done then and how government invest in healthcare and education? What does he bring back home after all those trips?

Population drives the economy of Lagos, more working people translates to more revenue. The government should be able to give back to Lagosians.

Not people rebuking public healthcare and education in churches and mosque.
I asked you to google the best state Universities in Nigeria and post the results here but you are yet to do that?

My brother, agberos are everywhere. The last time Sanwo olu tried to controlled them forcefully they went back to beg him before he later disbanded the Lagos State Park something something that was established to checkmate them.
Even people have been saying it that the agberos in the east are even worse than the ones in Lagos. The picture below is not intended to denigrate Anambra state but to buttress my point that agberos are everywhere.

HacheNoire:
So all you stated is the reason why the state cannot boast of pipe borne water?

Same reason it cannot make public healthcare and education competitive?

So where exactly is the debt and IGR going?

Oh! Same reason is why we have land and motor touts everywhere, and same time 90% of mainland is abandoned with dilapidated or collapsed infrastructure.

Please justify the debt and IGR of the state in last 8 years. What is of great impact and capital intensive that was achieved?

The state university cannot even compete within Nigeria. LASU is more of a cattle ranch than school.

Where exactly is the money going to?
I will reply you one after the other:
*Pipe borne water
The issue with Lagos State not being able to provide pipe borne water to all residents might be due to her population. The government is currently working on a water treatment plant to serve some people on the mainland. . Work is currently going on in Iju and Adiyan water treatment plant. And this problem you mentioned is not only peculiar to Lagos State even in other states. The state has not been doing much in this area especially for those on the island.

You mentioned touts. The correct word should be 'louts'. Those motor louts are called NURTW, they are registered association and you can find them in all parts of Nigeria. And if you are talking about the land louts. Laziness is what is affecting most of them. And I don't see any reason why you have to pin that on the state government.

I believe Lagos State has the best health centres in the whole of Nigeria. Even their general hospitals are top notched. They have the mother and child centre in different parts of the state. Ask Lagos state nurses and doctors that you know; Lagos State do not owe them their salaries. The state has health insurance for families and individuals.

You said Lagos State University cannot even compete within Nigeria. I don't know how you were able to come up with that in your head ooooooh. Please kindly google the best state universities in Nigeria and post the result here. I don't want to talk much on this. LASU is one of the best state universities in Nigeria currently.

Ask Osibanjobthat was chased to OGUN Statebforbdaringbto vie for Presidency. Also ask YAYI that was banished..

See what you countered me with. cheesy cheesy
Look at the profile of YAYI below:

*Former Member of the Lagos State House of Assembly

*Former Member, House of Representatives (Represented Alimosho Federal Constituency)

*Senator of the Federal Republic of Nigeria
Represented Lagos West Senatorial District (2015–2023)

*Later represented Ogun West Senatorial District

Osinbanjo served as commissioner for justice and attorney General in Lagos State. And two times vice-president of the FRN.

So both men you mentioned held different positions and represented Lagos State even though they are not indigenes of Lagos State.

Now let's talk about Bianca, kindly furnished me with ianca's present or past portfolios in Anambra state maybe as senator or commissioner.

HacheNoire:
I love your question!

Why are you always comparing the worst with Lagos state? Not compare Lagos with cities in her league?

Which other state has a massive IGR and debt like Lagos?

Why not compare with Pretoria or Cairo
Let me school you a bit. First and foremost; remove Cairo from your comparison cos Cairo runs a different financial system from Lagos. Their revenue and debts are shouldered by their central government.

Now if Lagos decides to stop capital expenditure and focus only on recurrent expenditure, do you know that Lagos state will clear all its domestic and foreign debts within one year? For Lagos State to be able to get domestic or foreign loans it indicates that Lagos State has strong revenue and a good repayment capacity.

And do you know that Pretoria generate more revenue than Lagos state? And Lagos State has higher population than Pretoria. 3 to 4 million residents in Pretoria while 20 to 25 million in Lagos State. Now, sit down like a gentleman and ponder over this statistics if Lagos State is trying or not.

Way to go!

The APC cronies have looted Lagos for so long with nothing to show for it!

Enough is enough!

Massive debt, huge IGR and FG allocation with absolutely nothing to show for it.

Pipe borne water is still a luxury in the state. Education can healthcare cannot even compete with other African cities, and when you show figured to fellow Lagosians, they will say “Eko o ni baje”
Mention two states that are as developed as Lagos in Nigeria. Let's start from there first

Oha how can a person threaten to rape the first Lady of a country and it will be swept under the carpet. It simply means you are raising false alarm. Try another style.
That's true. Though it's not a recent statement. He said he will impregnate Remi Tinubu. Tinubu wasn't the president then. He said it when both of them were in the Senate. In fact, Dino taunted the Tinubus by walking past the street of Bourdillion that the Tinubus can't do anything to him. He really ridiculed the Tinubus then. I think his close buddy then; Saraki was the Senate President but I'm not too sure. But I followed the drama keenly then when it happened.

Shut down the government and if the druggie does otherwise, form a parallel government. We don't want military to take over but what is a democratic system when opposition is systematically killed? We need a fair contest and we have many positions to fill up other than presidency. Free and fair contest doesn't mean Tinubu or Obi will win. It's healthy for our growth as a nation. A fair contest brought Otti to power and we want a fair contest to produce both APC and ADC governors in the future
You didn't bother to blame Atiku and co who didn't block all loopholes. The Bala guy was promised a high position in ADC but he was later sidelined. The only house of rep member in the party was suspended because he pledged loyalty to Tinubu. Why didn't APGA suspend Soludo after pledging loyalty to Tinubu. You sef think am. You laboured with others to be in charge of a party some people came from no where to hijack the party and made some promises to you but didn't fulfill, how will you feel? If the other party woo you, won't you side them to revenge on the hijackers? Emotions apart.
