PROUDIGBO:
Dude, you're just spoiling for a fight when you're not even understanding the argument! Look at the bigger picture: resources available; security situation met on ground; partisan/political situation confronted with while trying to govern; infrastructure met on ground; etc! Peter Obi had a lot of handicaps and challenges he met on ground when assuming office, yet he still delivered creditably well, especially on HDIs!

PROUDIGBO:
Each state has its strengths and weaknesses! I'm not here to belittle any state or raise one over the other.....my arguments centre around governance!

Father0fjesus:
I don't know who will be using Ebonyi and Ekiti airports. White elephant project for small states who should be looking at doing other things with their revenue.

Enufu airport is not far frkm Abakaliki.
And no one goes to Ekiti via flight, only few people. No airline will want to invest in Ekiti now.

PROUDIGBO:
You're so spot on! Peter Obi did his best for Anambra state, and if anyone knows the dire socio-economic and security situation he met on ground....not to mention the distraction he was getting from greedy godfathers whose firm grip on the states finances and politics he was trying to prise off, then one would begin to appreciate better just how much he did for the state! If a Peter Obi had governed states like Rivers, Lagos, Akwa-Ibom or Delta in the last 8 to 16 years, those states would be much better developed and governed today!

reiddecuti:
US dollars seems to be favorable because of consistency in its policy, democracy and some other factors. Also being a world power and controls almost all the world governmental organization like UN, World Bank, etc are also an advantage.

GeneraIDitari:
Yenagoa is an acronym.

Ijaw people make up to 75% of Bayelsa

Read report nor be me write am poverty rate are not base on allocation

mrvitalis:
Niger Deltans should forget how Yorubas and Fulanis ganged up to remove their son Jonathan , after all the insults in 2015 here but should not forget what happened in 1960s

Lmao

RAND250:
This figure was taken 2019

Beyelsa, sokoto and jigawa top the list .
For the past years nor south west state was among the poorest even with no oil na cocoa and industry dey run am

renderme:
Who cares? SW is not interested in whatever happens in the SS. When bendel asked for Midwest region, they were given their own region freely by Awolowo. Zero greed.

We don’t poke nose in peoples affairs. All we ask is people stop pokenosing in ours. Ecspecially the greedy manipulative meddlesome igbos.

Isobug:
Someone puts a challenge to you, all you could do is to deflect it. If Pastor ibiyomi is not well known you people would have tagged him Igbo abi IPOB even

gidgiddy:
People are myopic. Chad, Niger Mali and Zambia are some of the many landlocked countries in Africa, they are surviving

Lesotho and Swaziland are two independent countries inside South Africa, completely surrounded, they are surving

But someone believes that if South East becomes Biafra, it will not survive? Isnt that laughable

Some of these people dont even know that Imo, Abia have direct access to the sea through it tributaries and Rivers

Emyzoloye5:
If this is what you refered to as dirty street, then the joke is on you 😂

mrvitalis:
Don't mind those people ...a large percentage of port Harcourt airport passengers are on transit to ABA and Owerri

But Igbos should be angry none of our airports can do 5 million passengers a year ...it's something we can achieve man it's possible we just need more fleets to preduce cost

Daveconsult007:
PH more commercial than Onitsha or Aba?
Its obvious you don't know what commerce means. Don't mix up oil and gas fields for commerce.
Mention two markets in PH that houses international merchants.
Yet Anambra boasts of tens of it.

I lived in Portharcourth in childhood days before leaving for Cameroon,
Most big traders in PH are Ibo guys who get their stocks from Aba and Onitsha.
How many international

proeast:
You're quite ignorant. P.H is not even half commercialized when compared to Onitsha or Aba. In fact, P H gets virtually most of its needs from Aba. From clothes to shoes, groceries to motorparts and machine tools. They even bring heavy machines to fix in Aba or get technicians from Aba to go fix it in P.H

The same is applicable to Uyo, Calabar and Bayelsa, they all rely on Aba. Stand at Ikot ekpene road, in Ogborhill part of Aba and you will see numerous overloaded buses and vans heading to Akwa-cross. Stand at osisioma or P.H road and you will observe those heading to P.H/Bayelsa axis.




On the other hand, Onitsha serves North, Delta, Edo, Ondo etc.

Allow informed people to enlighten you instead exhibiting your ignorance openly.

horsepower102:
Port harcourt is inflated thanks to Aba business people landing and leaving from there.

Mathantics:
You're a zombie, Niger Delta is not a political region.

South East and South West are part of Niger Delta.

I'm from Imo State and I'm a Niger Deltan

Mathantics:
Was AkwaIbom, Cross River and Edo part of Niger Delta when it was created? Ignoramus


Fact: South East have more gas than entire South South. Face your region and stop claiming Niger Deltan. You're not from Niger Delta but you dedicated this account to attacking Igbo.

Your region don't have oil.

gidgiddy:
There was never anything called Niger Delta Republic, there was only a declaration of a Niger Delta Republic by a militant, which in effect means nothing, anyone can make any declaration

But in the case of Biafra, it had its own government
headed by Ojukwu, had a cabinet, had its own currency, own anthem, own coat of arms and was recognised by some countries such as France, Belgium, Zambia and Ivory Coast

Niger Delta Republic was nothing but a mere declaration, Biafra was real

I still have Biafran pounds which people used in trading and buying goods for the three years Biafra lasted
