Many of you who are drown in the fantasy of falsehood can never see what is about to hit you.

Your leaders who know the implication of Kanu's Biafra agitation denied MNK and his Biafra when Buhari chose to give you your 5 States Biafra.

Since you have gas larger than the Atlantic ocean,why not mobilise your representatives to push for resource control tomorrow and abolish FAAC so you can begin to swim in your oil and gas.

Without Nigeria your region will be the first to collapse as Nigeria has been the one feeding your region and not the other way round

Since you claims that SW can stand alone and that other regions are gaining from your VAT and IGR, why can't you people move for a separate nation? Why are Yorubas the one heavily frightened by the idea of disintegration in Nigeria? ANSWER ME!

Fastest growing koh,lowest growing nih.
This is a lie carried by Igbo bloggers as they usually do.
SE was the most backward then and they were fleeing to Ibadan which was the most developed,richest and progressive then before Ironsi spoilt everything with envy.

Another agba.do illiterate spotted. Pls do you know what AI is?

Open Chatgpt on your phone, ask the following question: "Was Old Eastern Region in Nigeria once considered the fastest growing economy in the world?"

Screen shot and show me the answer. Truly Awolowo free half baked education was really a bad one.

By the way, this pic below was the Ibadan that most Igbo people fled to according to you.

shortgun:
Yes, oil remains the main source of federal government revenue
You don't even understand what you posted.
All the "non-oil revenue has surpassed oil revenue" you are salivating on are technically comparing:

non-oil tax revenue (VAT, CIT, import duties, customs, etc.)
vs.
oil-related tax revenue (Petroleum Profit Tax, royalties, etc.)

They are not comparing:
Total non-oil revenue vs. Total oil earnings (crude export proceeds + taxes + royalties + NNPC remittances).

So whenever you see a headline which say “non-oil has overtaken oil revenue,”
What they’re really saying is:
Tax from non-oil sectors is now larger than tax from oil sectors.
not that Nigeria earns more from non-oil than from crude oil itself.

Even the so called non oil revenue is still gotten from companies and economic activities tied to the crude oil value chain

This may be too much for you to understand but that's what it is in simple terms

Leave that half baked illiterate to wallow in delusion.

Key emphasis is: "Tax from non-oil sectors is now larger than tax from oil sectors...not that Nigeria earns more from non-oil than from crude oil itself."

Nigeria won't be using global crude oil price to plan her budget each year if oil revenue is not our major revenue earner.

Oyo state VAT noise, Ogun state IGR noise. Now tell them to go for a separate nation since he claims that the whole SW is economically viable yet they won't.

Ttalk:
Even you don't know the meaning of illiterate so I excuse you on your ignorance.

Don't just post irrelevant caption that doesn't address the subject matter.

There is Federation where chunk of sub region revenue comes from FAAC, FAAC is Nigeria idea of ensuring Nigeria sub region survive by taking the wealth of the working subregion to support lazy states.

Now that this pattern can no longer hold and has to give way for states generating and surviving mainly on its generated income, Oyo state today has demonstrated that it's IGR that surpass that of 4 SE states stand a chance to survive than 4 states in SE put together.

Do you really know what IGR is ? I doubt your mental capacity. I wish I can explain this to you in a voicenote.

You claimed Oyo IGR surpasses SE states but Oyo state still benefits and enjoy Oil revenue from Imo, Abia and Anambra in FAAC allocation. Oil revenue of a state doesn't reflect in the IGR.

In a REAL true Federation Imo, Abia and Anambra will have to sell her oil and gas direct to foreign buyers and pay tax to the center govt. They can as well build their own seaport to deprive Lagos from custom revenue since SE citizens has highest number of citizen importing into the country. Then lets see how Lagos, Ogun, and other SW states can survive.

The gas reserve in imo state only which is biggest in Africa can sustain the whole SE in next hundred years, the trans Saharan gaspipe line that they are building now, where do think that Nigeria intend to supply Europe gas from?

If the whole SW is truly economically viable Awolowo won't bother to work with Gowon to stop Biafra from seceding.

Do you understand it now or is it still mentally challenging for you to grasp?

OgaSeun:
But they don't generate enough money.
Ibadan generates more more than 5 South East states put together.

Na illiteracy go kpai you there fuuul.

So VAT is the only revenue that states generates in Nigeria? Google list of oil revenue generated by states in Nigeria, you won't see Oyo State on the list but Imo, Abia and Anambra are there on the list and oil money is Nigeria's major revenue not VAT that is only about 13%.

Ibadan that is filled with wretched people with brown roofs all over their heads. Ibadan is the biggest slum in West Africa.

Ttalk:
SE is slightly bigger than Oyo state but Oyo state generates more revenue than entire SE

Argue with StatiSense

You mean "Revenue"? So VAT is the only revenue that states generates in Nigeria? Na illiteracy dey worry you. VAT that was gotten from heavy taxation that Apc wants to introduce at the national level next year?

Google list of oil revenue generated by states in Nigeria. You will see Imo in top 3, Abia state and Anambra. You won't see that biggest slum in West Africa that you call Oyo State.

Wait is it the same Ibadan that we all know that the lawmaker is talking about or e get another one?

Ibadan is the biggest slum in West Africa. Fact!

Ttalk:
Sharp eyes with dull brain won't know that IGR is fuel that powers the engine of a GDP in sane clime, enough of feeding bottle government. Develop your state with what you generate and money generated from SW should be kept in SW, if SE likes it can hang to GDP and let see how it will survive without FAAC.

Instead of state creation, tell your leader to clamour for abolition of FAAC. Let's see how leeches states will survive

You say "Clamor for abolition of FAAC"? South East weh dey look for outright disintegration, you dey talk of FAAC.

Wait till we get a fully functioning and viable seaport in Calabar, Warri or PH and see if they little IGR you see in Lagos and Ogun won't vanish.

You talk of feeding bottle govt? Remind me again why Awolowo had to work with Gowon just to prevent Biafra breakaway. I laugh in Chinese

https://www.nairaland.com/8385595/uromi-killing-not-support-atiku

I read a comment from one efule.fu from Southern Kaduna saying that he won't support Atiku anymore if he picks igbo VP come 2027 because of igbo people stand on Uromi killing. This mumu doesnt know that if not for the Igbos in Nigeria that him and his people would have parmanently been eliminated by now.

Igbos are the biggest protector of ethnic and religious minorities in Nigeria. Anyday Igbos join the other 2 tribes or cowardly keep quiet to injustice like one of the major tribes, then minorities in Nigeria will cease to exit. Whenever some efule.fus in minority areas in South South or Middlebelt Region attacks Igbos, I often ask if they are blind. Don't they see Igbos serve as buffer in maintaining one Nigeria?

The mu.mu man only want Igbos to speak up for minority Christains in Southern Kaduna and not other areas in the country? Don't he know that Uromi people are also minorities in Nigeria that without anyone speaking up for them, the fulanis in the military would've raided that community and burn houses by now?

Nothing concern Igbos with Shiite religion, but when Buhari and Brutai were massacring Shiite muslims, Igbos were the only voice speaking up for them.

All the killings in Agatu Benue, Plateau,Taraba state etc, Igbos were the major voice speaking up against it.

Efule.fu man in Southern Kaduna go read the role Igbos played in pushing back terrorists during religious riots in Kaduna and Kano in the 1990s and early 2000s. Wait let them get their Biafra and see what becomes of you in Nigeria as a religious minority.

Igbos maybe aggressive in nature but we abhors injustice, it's in our DNA.

"Lagos skews the stats with its economic boom, but the rest of the South West lags in infrastructure and diversification."

Below is the "lack of infrastructure" in South West Grok is talking about... 👇👇

AntiZikist:
Even at GDP , SE is still the poorest because the number 1 GDP index is land availability

This is why the World Bank once declared Niger State the richest state in Nigeria and Australia the richest in the world.

Land availability and population density are what defines real wealth.

Not just all lands by the way, but productive and fertile lands. Once you have fertile land to go around , you are guaranteed wealth to each household via agriculture. Agriculture remains the number 1 money earner for mankind.

Mankind moved from hunter gatherer societies to human settlements only after we mastered agriculture. And it's from that moment civilization began in Sumer.

SE can not be rich in GDP sense because their land can not sustain their population density.

Yeye talk!

Then explain massive wealth in Singapore, Hong Kong and Monaco despite land unavailbility.

Trump is the real deal

Ttalk:
Na your papa be mumu, your mother come be mumunatu and you come be mumudiran.

Show the c of O that your generation bought, if you can't provide one then you go and hide your head in shame

Skull miner you are feeling agitated now... e pain am.

Next time no play with the great igbos.

Ttalk:
Nobody is measuring d1ck with you but go back home and stop constituting nuisance in another person region. Lagos has ceased being FCT before you are born so pack your bag to the FCT and stop being refugee in another man's land

Mumu you sold your ancestral land to the igbos, used the money on owambe and still want the land back. You can't eat your egg and have it. Simply push for disintegration because as far as one Nigeria exist your land is forever gone.

There are Russians living in the US, Chinese living in the UK and Americans living in Cuba.

DomPerignon:
But your SE region keeps voting crooks and idiots as governors .

Charity begins at home .

Let's see you vote credible individuals as your governors first.

Name just one of your governors since 1999 that has any achievement that is laudable .

Aside Lagos which is a federal capital teritory for decades and a joint national project.

You can't compare the remaining 5 SW states with 5 SE states in terms of development.

SE easily beats SW handsdown aside Lagos. We can post pix and stats if you doubts it.

Ttalk:
You don't know the meaning of failure otherwise you will be looking in the direction of

1. Ojukwu who led Igbo into unnecessary war that claimed lives of millions Igbo and still failed only to come back and contest in the country he waged war against

2. MNK who created IPOB and UGM that are terrorizing the people of the SE while he was caught and today he is pleading to be free as he has abandoned Biafra

They two you mentioned are freedom fighters. A freedom fighter can fail many times and still eventually win. So you don't have a point try another one.

Ttalk:
Even when we had regional government na their region still be the poorest while their leaders escaped to SW and North to get exposure

Lol at South East being the poorest region in Nigeria.

Below is the rich SW region 👇👇

Should I post more rich pictures from the SW region?

DomPerignon:
God you people are by far the most unhinged and cringed idiots .

So you quickly resorted to insults after failure to accept the obvious fact on this thread. The region that voted failure back-to-back (Buhari/Tinubu) are the REAL idio-ts in Nigeria.

Igbos rejected Buhari, he ended up as a disaster.

Igbos rejected Tinubu, he turnout to be disaster too.

Igbos rejected Biden/Harris and supported Trump, They both turnout to be a disaster.


I remember in 2016-2020, Igbos were the only black group in the world that supported Trump and even held a rally for him. People mocked them for supporting a racist... Many years after, what is the result now?

Making good decisions is linked with high IQ

Electricity in the city no bad like that.

Mrexcell:
This one looks like a half breed his mom is obviously a european look at him carefully we know how fair igbos looks like. He probably felt more like a white european than a black person that's obviously why he did what he did no full blooded igbo man will behave like that.

He is 1000% igbo.

So you don't know that igbos have a lot of fair gene in them.

Look at rapper Phyno. Is his mom European?

IGBOPROMISE1:
Nice pics!

I think you meant to say aerial though! The only two Ariels’ i know of are the washing powder and Disneys Ariel in The Mermaid!🙂
