St_Black:

To further challenge all these lies & pseudo-logical claims of yours, can u pls explain how the opposition is on a losing ground when its so CLEAR that at present, GEJ & hi cohorts arent with rest of mind?

pls tell me how GEJ could score another through a breakdown of how he will achieve such feat of victory in all 6 Geo-political zones .

99cent:

you can't refuse to pay taxes in Lagos under Fashola.
the "Federal Government" excuse is overplayed and won't work.
reminds me of the thread about dirty filthy roads in Aba, Abia state. All of a sudden, "Federal Government" became the enemy and cause of filthy slums in Aba. Everything is always another person's fault. today it is lagos's fault. tomorrow it is federal government's fault. tomorrow it is Kano and Abuja's fault. Day after that, it is South Africa's fault.

PAY YOUR DAMN TAXES. take personal responsibility once in a while.

agbameta:



But GEJ gave you your Onisha port and he just gave you your own international airport so we are now even. You have a port and an international airport. Now do your thing and stop crying.


But the thing is, going by your mentality and tribal fixations, even if den give you the world, it's still going to be the same victimization and marginalization cries like babies..

When did Jonathan become president

I don't want to go into politics but you can see why Igbos are bent on supporting Jonathan just for the little he has done for us. At least he has shown that we are part of Nigeria and should be taken care of. It is like giving a man who has not eaten for weeks two sticks of biscuits; he will love you with all his heart and be willing to follow you anywhere. Enugu airport now has an international status and is already doing well, this is good. That Onitsha seaport stuff cannot really do the trick because it can not berth ocean liners. We are hoping that Ibaka seaport commences operations in 2015 at Akwa Ibom. This will be a game-changer for the economy in the East. Most Igbo imports would focus on Ibaka so that pressure on Apapa port is reduced.

0key:

...and when did it become an offence to use what is good to make an example?

If they are sincere, let them give us d full picture of the issue so that we'll know how they constitute security threat.

Katsumoto:

And Rivers state doesn't have an airport, seaport, schools, public infrastructure, etc? Does Kaduna not have most military infrastructures, schools, etc?

If you want the National Theatre, you are welcome to pick it up.

Good!!! Now we are going somewhere. You have mentioned Lagos, Rivers & Kaduna so what does the SE have Nothing!!! Do you see why I said that past administrations have deliberately marginalized the SE?

Katsumoto:

And no roads, hospitals, schools, airports were built in other states? Lagos was the only state that the FG spent money on?

Even a blind man can see that Lagos State has received unsual attention from the FG that is a fact! In how many states did the FG build international airports, National Arts theatres, flyovers like third mainland bridge, seaport like Apapa, how many

Is that not why everybody is running to Lagos today?

agbameta:



Are you for real or you just have a very very dead brain cells?

agbameta:


Of course you are spewing crap. Stop killing your spirits with that played out garbage.


Since the end of the same war you are talking about, we've had ibo vice president, we've had ibo ministers, ibo governors, ibo senators, ibo party leaders, ibo federal agency leaders and today, nearly all the top positions in GEJ administration are all ibo dominated, your states collect allocations and taxes just like the rest of Nigeria so what neglect are you talking about?

The only neglect you are experiencing has nothing to do with the rest of Nigeria, but with your own National and local leaders.

Too many of you are mentally misplaced..

Now I can see clearly that you don't reason well. Who built Apapa port, was it not the FG Was it a state governor that built third mainland bridge, Federal Palace hotel, National Arts theater, murtala mohammed international airpot, etc Tell me All these and a whole lot more were done in Lagos by the FG even though Lagos has also been receiving allocations. You're really daft!!! Is it not the FG that is now working on Ibaka seaport in Akwa Ibom? Is it not the FG that has now converted Enugu airport to an international one

Lagosbabe1:

The bolded above is very laughable. What you are sensing is absolutely false! Yorubas are the most accommodating tribe in Nigeria-fact! It is only in Yoruba land that all tribes can live in peace and be treated fairly, it is only in Yorubaland that any tribe in Nigeria can come and reside and they and their families will have equal access to education, healthcare and other public facilities and amenities.

I am tired of listening to all the story that an Hausa man was Mayor of Enugu or Aba in the 1930s or thereabouts, the fact is that it is only in YORUBA LAND that you will find an Ibo man hold such an important position as the Commissioner of Finance- we are very progressive in our orientation and deeds. However, a lot of people have misunderstood the gentility of the Tiger as weakness; Or how will OUK and a lot of IBOs declare Lagos as No Man's Land? The same land that gave Ibos the opportunity to rebuild their lives after the civil war? The same Land that educated your children?

You say the competition is very stiff in the SE, what do you exactly mean by that? Are you trying to imply that all the the potentials of all your states have already been taken advantage of? Your assertion is very ironic given the fact that the SE is relatively not as developed as the SW; I would have imagined that given the acclaimed Ibo ingenuity and brilliance, Ndigbo would have developed and taken optimal advantage of the opportunities in their own land before seeking it elsewhere. You claim to be Jews, but have you looked at how the Israelis are dominating the world in sectors such as IT, Science and Research? Most of this is done in Tel-Aviv and they have a loud voice all over the world due to their ability to be innovative and creative. I am not being disingenuous, but I can hardly see any resemblance in culture, attitude or mindset between Ibos or Jews.

The most important thing you said is that we should have mutual respect for each other- very important point! Respect however is a two way street, I can only respect you if and when you respect me. Ibos saying that Lagos is a no mans land is not respect, it is absolute disrespect. Respect begets respect my dear friend.
