Because you're not from the west ,you don't know meaning of Agbero or its different from Omo ita,most of the money Lagos is making is from Agbero while the beggars are Omo ita .

That being said ,militants MO is to destroy billion dollars properties,kills ,kidnapped but these has never been recorded done by "agbero" ...agbero only beg for money and can cause slight harm to individuals which is bad as well but on a scale ,its like 1 to 1000 gap .

militants have not existed since 2000 - 2009... there are no militants anymore because all of them are on monthly salary and other forms of bonuses since 2011.

Agberoes beat, rape and kill their victims..

there has not been a militant attack since 2010/2011..

Agberoes are attacking and robbing people daily..

people like you are the reason why I speak against my fellow Western Nigeria people to the point that if I use tribe's name in comment the bots will ban me for saying the truth and that is I keep using Western Nigerians and eastern, southern e.t.c...

agberoes are a menace and anyone that says "most of the money Lagos is making is from Agbero" does not know what good governance means and is a very corrupt person..

western Nigerians don't need your type but unfortunately it is your type that are politicians which is why the agbero will get worse..

I'm not holding a brief for agbero but agbero is better than militant and IPOB .

Also ,future is different from now or past ,so projection is not reality.


While most agberos are from Western part ,it's because it's their state and region ,but there's high percentage of outsiders among them ,there are several online interviews to back it up ,also agbero is in almost every where in the country just that it's worse in Lagos .

with the money Lagos is making then Agberoes should not be sighted anywhere in the state..

there is no difference between agberoes and militants...

agberoes are worse at least militants have access to oil money...

agberoes have access to innocent human beings who they extort and attack...

Which part of Western Nigeria are you from ? Let's start from there ?

Two ,it's a publicly knowledge that South is the king of oil and gas ,also you spoke about eastern fertile land , obviously you don't know what you're saying because they have smallest landmass in Nigeria which they are still sharing with erosion and forest and housing and also ,what's the metric of eastern agricultural input ? These are facts and not nsobbu chest beating .

PPP is definitely different from government owned industries ,but all developed countries rely heavily on private industries , USA is a model country and it was built by private enterprises as we can still see today where companies like Nvidia worth is higher than a continent GDP .

There's no region in the south that has more infrastructure like road and housing more than SW ,so if you're truly from SW ,you should appreciate what you have .

Lagos is not regressing and it's the greatest city in Nigeria and one of the best in the world but Lagos can do more with the resources at disposal.

Nvidia owner is Taiwanese and the company is located in the U.S.

it is only a U.S company by location and investors not by ownership.

the south and the east are one... a person from Akwa-ibom, Cross-River and Bayelsa will relate well with the eastern people before they will relate with the western people.

you cannot separate the south from the east even if they were independent countries same way you cannot separate Benin republic and Togo from the western part even if they are different countries.

the entire eastern and southern parts combined have better road network and housing than the western part..

you cannot compare a place that has direct access to crude oil and gas to another place that does not have it...

U.S is not a model, anyone that says U.S is a model does not understand governance and development especially towards people living in poverty..

Most of the agberos in Lagos are mostly people from other regions that are trying to find green pastures in the west and the west is the region with such influx in the country which indicates highest economic and security metrics .

Also ,agbero is not as deadly as militants in the south ,IPOB in the east ,bandits in the north so companies will still weigh their coins before they choose .
.

the agberos are from the western part of the country and are an eye-sore,,

the way the western part is going the agberoes are going to get worse than militants due to the bad governance in the region and states...

sigmax:
Lol ,I know you're from the east that's why you're shitting on the Western part despite you benefitting from it while you're trying to elevate the the eastern region . That's why I want to know where you're from before I give you a direct answer and I was correct to assume that you're a bigot for trying to single out Western part instead of the collective regions in Nigeria.

Just because I am from the western part of Nigeria does not mean that I cannot criticize and speak against the bad governance happening in the region especially Lagos state.

I've been to almost all regions in the country and I can say with authority that besides Abuja Lagos has the most developed road infrastructure,despite the heavy usage compare to the rest ,while Akwa Ibom and some city centre in the north has good roads ,they're not as vast and used like Lagos so you can do away with that Lagos rhetorics .

Government don't handle successful industries ,even in communist countries,it's still private industries that does ,the only thing government provides in amibake policy and environments .

Western part of the country is not regressing ,it's the one eyed king in the midst of the blinds .

Thank you .

I am from the western part of the country.

I have assessed Nigeria, the western part is not even refining the large amount of iron ore and bitumen in the region, there should not be bad roads at all in the western part due to the large deposits of bitumen here...

In serious countries, most of the successful industries are owned by the government and some are disguised as private companies but are actually public private partnerships..

the eastern part has crude oil, gas, fertile land e.t.c.. which means money from crude oil and gas first goes through their politicians, traditional leaders, business people e.t.c. before it gets to the western part and northern part which is why the Dangote refinery in Lagos is very important for the indigenes of the western part to protect the refinery because it means money also goes through our people first and it gives our people leverage..

Lagos is been managed poorly and badly and is regressing. if you can't see it then thank your parents and your efforts for making sure you live in a nice neighborhood...

Lagos should have nice areas everywhere regardless of income due to the amount of money it has.

sigmax:
Mr man ,I personally believe in private industries ,so I'm not making a brief for any politician but in the current status of Nigeria ,the Western part is still the most peaceful and economic prosperous . That's why I wonder why you singled out western part of Nigeria instead of collectively castigating all Nigerian parts .

I believe that believing in private industries indirectly means abdicating the responsibilities of the public industries to the private industries and that is not a good thing.

so you are also indirectly making brief for politicians in the western part by believing in private industries..

with the begging and agbero extortions happening in the western part those private industries can relocate out of the western part and then the region loses..

public industries owned by the state government can not relocate out of the western part so it is better to hold the public sector accountable..

I singled out the western part because I am tired of seeing bad roads and bad infrastructure and beggers and agberoes all over the region especially Lagos which is meant to have more than enough money to curtail such vices and re-orientate people.

I don't care about the other parts of Nigeria since I am not from there and I rarely visit those places and the other parts of Nigeria especially the eastern part has the richest Natural resources in crude oil, gas deposits, coal deposits, fertile land e.t.c. in NIgeria so it is only a matter of time before they exceed other regions...

the western part is regressing and that is an issue to me and the politicians don't care that is also why I singled them out..

sigmax:
Because you're a bygot,we want Africa to be good but you initially singled out western part of Nigeria just for target .

If other parts of the country is good ,they won't come to Western part of Nigeria the same way Africa leaders are going to EU and Europe because they're better than Africa .

A bigot would want his or her part of Nigeria to have very good roads and infrastructure..

I want the western part of Nigeria to have excellent roads and infrastructure so if that is bigotry then yes I am a bygot and the politicians in western Nigeria are not bigots and that is a very serious problem but they will pretend and like to play the tribal card when its getting close to elections..

but in reality they are not bigots and tribalists because a bigot and a tribalist will not see his or her tribal people begging and living in destitution and not look for an immediate solution for them...

keep protecting our useless and corrupt politicians in the western part of Nigeria..

they love wyte people more than you...

sigmax:
Are you from Western part of Nigeria? I'm asking before I know the response to give to you .

why does it matter where I am from

all parts of Nigeria and Africa should be good for every black person and should work for everyone even if they are tourists and should have excellent infrastructure and roads...

if the politicians from the western part of Nigeria are performing poorly it affects everyone who lives, works and visits the western part of Nigeria whether they are from the western part of Nigeria or not...

where I am from is irrelevant..

sigmax:
I've given you the examples,let me give more details,tech companies need a lot of space for datacenters ,same for manufacturers,when their perceptions is reinforced that they will see cheap vast amount of land ,they will initiate transfer of wealth .

Another thing is security ,land itself is a security and once the negotiating knows the true worth of the security,they will cede more controls .

Lastly ,I said earlier that perception matters ,when several leaders begin to introspect how big their country or continent is ,their will be subconscious reflection .

there can never ever be a subconscious reflection from Nigerian politicians especially politicians from the western part of Nigeria.

olaadenigeria:
If you are been given land use charge of 1 plot instead of 2.1 plot. How will you react when you discovered. Countries with larger land mass are entitled to high UN palliatives

I was thinking of the ulterior motive behind this and you've just provided a very good ulterior motive especially concerning the wicked politicians from the western part of Nigeria..

they are doing it in order to re-claim and re-posess houses owned by Nigerians...

Kalashnikov49:
Ok..clap for them!!

Size is useless when the leadership is also useless.

Switzerland..Germany...and co are NOT bigger than most African countries , but they have a working syatem that makes it imperative that their leaders do the needful and they have SOLID infrastructure, healthcare,education etc etc etc

In Africa, especially NIGERIA, we have a DRUG DEALER that has the audacity to tell citizens suffering under economic stagnation that he is going for 3wks holiday. The funniest thing is that the HOLIDAYs are in another country on another continent.

Serious President's dont go for HOLIDAYs when their countries are in turmoil, both economic and security wise.

Shame.

size is not useless...

size means more land for agriculture which can also lead to production agricultural by-products

size means more land for water which means whoever controls the land can also control access to water which is underneath the land..

size means more natural resources also underneath the land...e.t.c..

In Nigeria and some other African countries the leaders are puppets of wyte supremacists which is called "indirect rule"..

Have you ever asked yourself why a person or group of politicians will intentionally not want to do what's best for his country?

Have you ever asked yourself why a person or group of politicians will intentionally not want his/her country to have the best roads, best hospitals, best housing, best facilities all around the person's country?

its because Nigerian politicians and in particular SW politicians are puppets of wyte and harab people.

A real tribalist will feel serious shame seeing his own tribe's people begging and living in poverty, destitution and bad infrastructure all over his ethnic territory and will do everything in their power to correct and fix such...

there is no tribalism in Nigeria.

Stop dis-respecting the serpent by comparing a human to the serpent.

Evaress:
It feels like the people who are drawn to me aren’t the ones I’m drawn to. I don’t feel a connection, and I can’t fake it.

Meanwhile, the people I genuinely like don’t seem to feel the same way about me.

Then I get blamed for being single, like I’m the problem for saying no.

But should I force feelings that aren’t there? I’ve tried, and it doesn’t work.

I just wish it was easier to find someone who feels the same way I do.

I want the feelings to be mutual on both sides not one-sided love.

I don't even need the man to be as handsome as brad pitt or as rich as Elon musk. There is this certain type of appeal that i find attractive in a Guy which most guys don't have.

Because starting a relationship is expensive.

without Dangote refinery Nigerians will be buying petrol at ₦3100 per litre.

blame your tricians for not making sure its own refineries are not working so that it can sell petrol at ₦800 per litre..

also blame your tricians for not making sure its own telecommunications company NITEL is not working so that phone calls can be cheaper...

unless the SW or coalition of SW billionaires creates a South west petroleum refinery or r:u:b:a petroleum company to ensure the price in the SW is affordable then everyone in the SW will buy at ₦1300 per litre...

or a coalition of SE billionaires creates their own petroleum refinery to determine the price in the SE then everyone in the SE will buy at ₦1300 per litre and fuel is meant to be cheaper in the SE since it is the source of the crude oil..

owobokiri:
And he is still charging Nigerians based on international prices??
Nobody is protecting Nigerians from these ruthless capitalists.
The argument is that unsavoury realities arising as a result of the middle east problems/wars, are the reason for the high prices.


But he got over 90 percent of the Oil that should go to local refineries. Labour for extraction was/is local. He already has pipelines from the Niger Delta to his refinery. So whats going on with the pricing? Or Did the crude pass through the Straight of Hormuz before reaching Dangotes refinery

the only local refinery in Nigeria is the Dangote refinery there are no other refineries so what rubbish are you saying

Yampotatocarrot:
Lol, I don't know where in Lagos you stay, but take a stroll to Agege, Moricas, and more recently, Papa Ashafa area

the people you call "northerners" in Lagos and some other southern states are from niger republic, Chad and Sudan...

Land in Lagos is too valuable for it to be sold fuulishly..

only extremely fuulish yorubas will sell their lands...

what kind of name is Daniela

when did yorubas start giving such names

epainos:
The truth is that the youths of the nation have be trapped in backwardness.

The wealthy will keep building more Banana Islands, Eko Atlantic, etc. The wealthy will keep expanding towards the ocean where they know they are safe. They will keep controlling the import & export of the nation.

In Lagos, they have made most of the adjacent cities to their safe haven when average Nigerians will live. Surulere, Yaba, Ebute-Metta, & even Lekki is their shield from these issues in this thread. And Lekki is a strong hold that will keep new areas like few trade zone and the rest from these people.

there is a difference between youths and beggars..

beggars want free money without working and are even attacking youths who are working for not giving them money..

Jayhome24:
What is this one talking about? I have restaurant with bar in Lagos nobody come to beg for anything and thousands have restaurant all over Lagos I never hear anybody close down his or her restaurant cus of people begging so pls what are you talking about? Where is that your restaurant in Lagos give us the address?

No beggar can force money out of your pocket so stop fanning lies to start political bullshit on Monday morning.

If you are sure of what you are saying give us the address of that your restaurant we will tell people to go their within miniures for verification and get back here.

Kajaard:
I am in total agreement with you.

I find it very hard to believe I will close my business I started with my hard earned money just because of some beggars constituting a nuisance. This story just doesn't add up

PulaPower:
Dude is not telling the truth..

Because of beggars that you can chase away, you close your business hahaha 😂

Who does that?

you people have never ever owned any business in your lives

akpumping7720:
You dey quote that guy wey don ment?

if aboki that is not a politician from the north can afford land then I want to know the area

Yampotatocarrot:
Many of these people no get sense... You have chased multinationals away with your superiority fights, now you're doing the same to your own people

Maybe it's illiteracy or just stupidity, you come to Lagos also, and see people sell their lands to northerners, then turn around to complain and cause trouble about how northerners have taken over the whole streets and areas

Some will tell you Aboki is desecrating their parents' graves and I wonder, didn't you know there was a grave there before selling it? Aboki wey no dey hear word, go dig up the grave and give you your grandparents' bones, then go ahead to build whatever he wants to build... Na other tribes dey fear to buy land wey them bury person

The different tribes in Delta need to stop the infighting... They've done more harm than good to themselves, even the Warri is now becoming a ghost town compared to how it was in the early past...

where in Lagos are they selling land to northerners...

sevenhundred:
yes, Kano has more population than Lagos but Lagos has more visitors than Kano, that's the difference.

Kano can never ever have more population than Lagos..

what happen to unilag researchers or ui researchers

what are they doing

do Nigerian universities have research departments

erniok:
I should be the one educating you. Government provides for the public and not specific individuals except in rare peculiar cases. Most Nigerians thinks Government has to provide their individual needs not create the environment or stimulate the economy for that I have seen

Nigerians misbehaving because they it's their land and you are giving a kudo because you, in your house, fells he doesn't know better. How wonderful.

Government have ministries with budgets and we've read time and again how ministries in nigeria are undefunded. I ask again, have you heard of budget deficits no?

Gov creates structures that creates and provides other structures for specific people and people in specific fields and social status so that the economy can function and this people are specific individuals some whom are civil servants and in other sectors...

when the gov creates something multiple people benefit whether it is for one person or not.

for example,
gov builds a structure called schools so that people interested in getting an education can benefit..

first lady can get over N11billion yet you claim the ministries in nigeria are underfunded... that means you think and see Nigerians as fools if you truly believe the ministries are underfunded..

in this man's case, the gov can build an agro-facility for the area so that people interested in managing their crops can do that at the agro-facility..

you don't know anything..

erniok:
On the first bolded, why did you quote me to start with?

Really.?? I'm done with this new line of argument on the second bolded.

I quoted many comments that were defending the man for putting cassava on the road and saying it is not the government duty to provide for the citizens.

your comments say "So it's the gov responsibility to provide him with agro processing equipments right?

Nigerians with their entitlement."

I responded to this comment above..

the gov has ministries and those ministries have budgets... the funds allocated to the Agriculture ministry can be used to build agro-facilities for farmers across the country..

I am not arguing with you...

I am educating you.

your understanding is no where near it should be if you are an adult.. unless you are a gov paid keyboard warrior

even if you are a gov paid keyboard warrior you should have the understanding to acknowledge the gov bad performance...

erniok:
we are arguing about government speeding limits and you are talking about corruption so pls, sticknto the premise of the arguement. I bet you've heard about budget deficit no? I had to bring in the US to show limited spending is a global issue but you, the smarty pant, didn't pick that or deliberately chose to ignore that.

you had to bring in agro facilities for what is at the moment an individual that has a farm and yet went to a public space to spread his cassava and yet want to sound smart. Do you want me to believe he has nowhere else to do that but on the road?


Continue with your delusion.

we are talking about the man putting food on the ground..

we are NOT talking about spending limits or corruption..

where was the budget deficit when they were buying SUVs and luxury furniture for themselves..

we are not talking about U.S..

he went to a road because he does not have a flat cemented surface in his farm ( if he owns a farm ), he could have been given the cassava or even stolen the cassava...

the man does not have the knowledge and intelligence to have anywhere else to do that...

mukthar2000:
