As I said, those Lagos family names
indicate slave lineage.

Some of their ancestors were taken into
slavery either in Brazil or the Caribbean and
lost their original native names & later
came back to their roots with their new
names after slave trade was abolished.
Having been raised in better civilization
& also educated, they came back as elitist
blacks and built new reputations .

what you should tell yewit37486 is that their ancestors were black people from south America who the british wanted to use to replace indigenous Yoruba people.

so when their ancestors arrived in Lagos island were the british were based they were given Yoruba first names and the most prestigious and good jobs and were made elitist by the british to deceive Yorubas into subjugation but Yorubas didn't fall for them.

same way they claim and lied that Ajayi Crowther is a returned slave..

Acidosis:


You are already running tribal as usual. Who told you I'm not from one of the major tribes I described? Who are my "own people?" Set awon radical racists.

I'm not complaining o. I'm only beating mentally d.eranged ronu bandits at their own game.

My name is Jonathan Goodluck. Oya do your worst and insult my tribe using your imagination. I love it when I leave ronu bandits cracking their coconut heads, trying to figure my tribe.

You are one of those paid online keyboard warriors that are paid to hypnotize and deceive Yoruba people into been neutral and anti-yoruba and have hatred for their fellow yorubas..

the more you try then the more Yorubas will become pro-Yoruba.

Acidosis:
You want them to bear Ayo, Chinedu, and Adamu so you can use tribalism to finish their destiny?

If I have my way, I will avoid all native names from Nigeria's major tribes (Yoruba, Igbo, and Hausa).

A Mark John is more likely to get a University admission from any Southwestern University than a Chinedu. A Jenifer Confidence is also more likely to get a job in Igboland than a Nurudeen Ayoola.

Y'all pathetic decendants of racists and losers will preach one thing and do another.

angelfrost is right "you shamefully and cowardly despise your true identity out of fear of your own fellow citizens??!"

Why should Ayoola be more likely to get a job in Igboland than Chinedu, the only way that happens is if the owner of the company
in igboland is Yoruba..

It is not the fault of Yorubas and Igbos that they have more successful people who own companies than your own people.

In case you have not taken notice. Business Owners all over the world mainly hire people from their tribe or people they share the same ethnicity with.. so Ayoola will always get job ahead of Chinedu as long as the company is owned by a Yoruba person or the government agency is in the SW.

some years ago I was going through in:st:a:gr:am pics of companies and I noticed most of the employees were whyte and if there was a person or people with melanin skin then that person would be an Indian not African American or even African.

so I came to a very important conclusion that changed my perspective and that is "the more companies people of certain ethnicities own the more successful people that ethnicity will have." because most of the employees will have the same ethnicity as the owner because its a way of empowering your own people.

it is only in Africa and among black people that tribes with small populations are under-developed while outside Africa the european tribes with small populations are living comfortable and developed life.

Stop complaining.

humility33:
It is so painful that this generation of Nigeria talents will not achieve or win any continental trophy because of NFF and Sport Ministry
So painful.
Now I understand why some people advise all this foreign born players to play for their birth country.

Rarely will you find a politician or a government official that truly loves this country and will make sacrifices to make it great.
From the president down to the clerk in government house and NFF inclusive none truly care for this country

you're just realising this

Nigeria is not a country it is a geographical location and company created by eu:ropeans ( the br:itish )..

from the previous to current presidents to the senators all of them work for the br:its and are highly paid slaves who are to ensure the citizens of Nigeria live in poverty and mediocrity..

they dare not challenge their slave-masters by trying to improve the lives of the citizens and even if they try the World Slavery Bank and International Slavery Fund will claim Nigeria's population is now 500m people and will negatively adjust the exchange rate of the country making the naira fall against other currencies which will affect the economy despite all the people ter:rorists have killed, malaria have killed, cancer has killed, sickle cell has killed, old age has killed and other diseases have killed people but they always claim Nigeria's population is increasing...

Elsueno:
To be honest, I still don't think we are even up to 150 million in this country...So many things just doesn't make sense with that 200 mil stuff

Nigeria is not up to 60 million... the world slavery bank and international slavery fund are inflating the figure to make Nigeria's currency weak and keep Nigerians in bondage.

nairalanda1:


Which were the result of attempting to solve issues that came from the whole first republic imbroglio, and then no matter what, Nzeogwu is to be ultimately blamed.



Which is an excuse by the way.

We are weak because we don't want to do the things like improve our tax regime, fight corruption and work hard to becoming a manufacturer of goods and servicies.

(Malaysia and Indonesia too are former colonies. Better than us, though not the best, because they did the hard work. China was once worse than Senegal).

The thing is, independence was sold on the idea that there would be more money for the black majority. Problem was, it was a lie. But the thing is doing the hard work china did and even many european countries did to get industrial was going to mean more suffering...so the alternative was mass 'socialist' welfare projects...which led to us getting into debt because trying to help too many people on limited money is a nice way of going broke.

Not jsut Nigeria...Venezuela and Argentina have the same issues.



Not true.

We don't have a refinery because since 1973, we have sold oil at a loss...and that means no profit...which promotes corruption, sabotage and stealing in the refineries, because free government money was still coming in whether the refineries worked or not.

Foreign investors would have loved it if Nigeria was not subsidising fuel at all...infact one of our early refineries was built with help from Shell. Back then we did not subsidise fuel.

Niger republic our neighbour has a working refinery as does chad. Both built with foreign investment from China, because in both countires, they sell fuel above the market price, and thus a profit is made, attracting investors.

No investor is going to come and build a refinery in Nigeria. Refine fuel above N900 AND sell it at N700 and below? Right.


Venezuela has been selling fuel for N40 for decades. In that time they lost refining capacity drastically. And the process started before their goverment became anti-American so don't blame them for that.

there was nothing to solve from the 1st republic. Ironsi, Azikiwe, Ojukwu and Nzeogwu were both corrupt and did not have any form of inteligence.

In the mid 1900s, Nigeria naira was between 1.25 to 3.25 naira to $1. it has nothing to do with improving tax regime. right now, Nigeria's budget is N33trillion so imagine if the currency was still the way it was in the mid 1900s that N33trillion budget will be equal to $33trillion.

Nigeria does not have a working refinery because Nigeria is led by "house n*ggas" and eu:ropean puppets and slaves.
Nigeria makes over $80billion from selling raw crude oil and can make over $150billion from selling refined crude oil.
a black majority country making over $150b is an abomination to whyte people who control world economics.

nairalanda1:



Even then, old chaps, the 120bn is not enough for a country our size....which is what I have been trying to tell you guys on this site...APC, PDP, NNPP, LP, ETC supporters.

The fact is, Nigeria even at 120bn naira is still a poor broke oil nation. We should be, and this is why I consider most Nigerian leaders (Ironsi and Murtala were not in power long enough) to be awful. We should be earning something like 4 trillion DOLLARS at least, 10 trillion DOLALRS at most.

We got a lot of natural resources, a large GDP that is undertaxed, and a large industrial potential. We don't use it, instead we fritter around oil and pretend as if it is enough. It isn't. We can't even be like UAE or Saudi because our large population means that we got a poor revenue to gdp ratio

Then the corruption makes it damm worse. Really worse.

Even the budget APC called out today, 22 trillion. Our debt meanwhile is 50 trillion naira. Debt servicing is taking away 8 trillion of the budget this year, and the debt is still growing. States too all owe money. And we pretend we got enough money. .

That is the purpose of my economic comments on this site...to tell Nigerians that we have been doing things wrong for years, and we need to do what the big boys are doing...fighting corruption, paying more in tax, diversifying the economy, and earning more by exporting manufactured goods and servicies. That's what we got to do. And if we remove subsides on power and petrol (Tinubu has not removed subsides on petrol, despite what he and his supporters say).....we free up the sectors to power the possible industrial revolution.

The thing is, whether 33 bn or 120 billion, we are still broke. Call me when we have 4 trillion dollars at least (not naira), and an exporting industrial economy,and jailing people for steraling money that is when we are serious.

Ironsi was in power long enough to cause 100year plus problems.

Nigeria and other black African countries can never make up to $4trillion dollars because of weak currencies and anti-Nigerian deals signed with colonial thieves..

Nigeria does not own a working refinery because that means the foreign refineries Nigeria patronizes will lose billions of $$ in revenue

casualobserver:


Like I said you are ignorant and uninformed.

Who owns the $2b gained from tourism in your example? Is it the government that owns the hotels, the restaurants, the beaches the taxis they use? So if you do not tax the people that make money from tourists how does this $2b in tourism income translate to govt revenues besides visa fees?


As for your second paragraph, you are again displaying your ignorance. That $10m is my money not the government’s. Like I said the only thing the government can do is to mandate that I repatriate the money at the official exchange rate and that I keep the money in a domicialry account. It is not their money. At the end of the year I will file my accounts and I will pay taxes to the government IN NAIRA! NONE OF THAT $10m belongs to or goes to the government. . All I do is add to the supply of forex in the country but it is not governments money!!! It means that because I have brought back $10m to the country, when you need forex there is more forex in the system and the price comes down. Nothing to do with government revenues. The government does not see 1cent of the $10m.

We are talking about government revenues here not the economy. Like I said earlier do not comment on matters you do not understand.

tourists pay VAT on products they buy, In some countries the govt also owns or has stake in hotels, restaurants and beaches.

In Nigeria, the government owns schools, universities, hospitals, parks e.t.c.. when you patronize a government facility it is government you're paying.

you are displaying ignorance.. $10m is not your money after deductions and fees have been collected by banks and the government. when you pay tax at the end of the year the government takes another percentage of the $10m.

If $10m reaches your account the banks will inform the government.

you're very ignorant...

tsdarkside:


its not only about votin the right president....

its about the system....
if you cant find somebody that will force the ol system to change then it will not matter who you vote....
things will remain the same....
for example....why is it that states that produce oyel can only keep 13%....??

shouldnt it be the other way around....??
its the federal goverment that should be gettin 13% and the oyel producin states keep the rest....
but try to suggest that and see how fight will start....

It used to be 50% before the 1966 coup. it was the coup plotters that abolished it.

casualobserver:


Please don’t quote me to make ignorant uninformed comments. Tourism doesn’t bring money to any government. Tourism, exports, etc are just like any other industry. It is taxes on activities, employees etc that brings revenue. The income generated by the industry goes to the operators. If you don’t tax them you make nothing from it no matter how many foreigners come or how many goods you export. If I export $10m worth of goods, it is my money not the government’s. The most the government can do is say I repatriate my foreign income at the official rate and put in in a dorm account. The money is not theirs!!! So how has my exporting $10m worth of good increased govt revenues? It is only when they tax me that they get revenue from my activities and even then, I will pay my taxes in Naira not in forex. The purpose of encouraging exports is to boost forex availability in the system, the money doesn’t belong to the government unless it is the government’s property that is being exported e.g oil or gas.

You are confusing forex with taxes…go and learn basic economics. Govt revenue is from taxes. Exchange rate is from demand and supply of forex. The only reason govt gets a lot of forex from Oil is because govt owns the oil. Will the government own the tourism or the export industries…so why will any forex generated belong to them? Forex inflows determine exchange rates, govt taxes determine govt revenues. Unless you are proposing that government owns businesses the tourism and export sectors,

Go and learn the difference between forex and government revenues or better still go and do a course in economics before commenting on matters above your pay grade.

you are the ignorant one.

If a country gets 2 million tourists per year and those tourists spend at least $1000 each that's over $2b just from tourism.

if you export $10m worth of goods before you export you'll pay fees and licenses to the Nigerian customs..

after you successfully export the goods and the buyer has received and now paid $10m the $10m and other revenues you make will the taxed by the government at the end of your company's financial year before that $10m reaches your account the banks would take own fee and percentage for processing the transaction.

nairalanda1:


Like I said, more taxes is one of the things we need.

Our oil money is not enough, man, even if we fight corruption adequately.

You are free to disagree with me, but if you think that 70% of the population not paying taxes is all right, okay. Na your choice. But we got to reduce our loan habits, and short term taxes is the way to go, long term, diversification, fighting corruption and becoming a manufacturer of goods and services and exporting them.

In my previous comment I used 50million people but 70% of 200m is 140m people.

so if 140m people pay tax of at least $20 that is still $2.8billion and won't boost the budget by $100billion.

so you're wrong that taxes is the solution.

kukutenla already quoted you with the right question..

that $33b budget is what they are showing to the public. the real budget will be over $120b.

Kukutenla:

But you have to first lie that Algeria produces more oil than we do. The question to ask is how nigeria has more GDP than all these countries if we are indeed poor and oil dependent.

nairalanda1:



Unfortunately it is, and your assertion that most countries do not earn money from taxes at all is wrong. (US, UK, many European countries, even Japan and China would disagree with you).

Plus, you mishear me. TAXES is one of several measures I propound on this thread, the others being fighting corruption , diversifying the economy and so forth. Ye should stop getting fixed on the tax bit of my message.

Plus, our oil revenue per year is just about 70 -90 billion dollars. We need something like trillions of dollars before we can talk.

And too bad APC hasn't done anything about it since 2015.

It is not taxes..

you cannot compare taxes of countries due to the strength of the currency of the countries..

No one knows if Nigeria is still paying colonial taxes to the british because that $33billion budget is obviously a scam when the same Nigeria has the highest GDP in Africa..

Princewill1:

This is simply because Nigeria is collecting lesser taxes despite having bigger economy. And also unlike other countries, Nigeria runs a federal system of govt with components states having their own budgets.

nairalanda1:



Harsh truth

As the World Bank said in 2019, most Nigerians do not pay taxes to state and Federal govenrment

But because na world bank say am, people prefer to attack the messenger.

Meanwhile in the UK, they are so harsh on tax avoiders. Avoid paying TV licence for example, and you could get into trobule.

casualobserver:


1.Algeria doesn’t produce 4 times the oil we produce. They actually produce a lot less than us. Their official OPEC quota is half that of Nigeria.

2. Those figures for Nigeria are actually wrong because they are federal budget and don’t include states. If you include states it is more like $65b

3: It is not about diversified economy, Nigeria is actually a very diversified economy., it is about the fact that Nigerians do not pay the same levels of taxes as in these countries and we tend to generate most of govt revenue from oil royalties…though this is changing . Whereas other countries generate most of their monies from taxes.

taxes is not where other countries get money.. other countries get money from tourism, exporting of aeroplanes, cars, trucks, food, oil e.t.c just like Nigeria is already doing.

Nigerians are already paying more than enough taxes..

If 50million people are employed and the minimum wage is 80,000 naira and are each paying taxes of 20,000 naira to the government.

that's 20,000 naira ( $20 ) x 50million people is equal to $1billion and if you add $1billion to the current it does not really do much.

so this proves that taxing the people is not the solution to increasing Nigeria's budget.

Correction:
the annexation of Lagos island by Binis predated the mass dumping of freed slaves in Lagos island. I just reconfirmed this. I can see your need to argue tho.
Please note that AWORIS were already in Lagos & Bini annexation of Lagos was a conquest not a newfoundland.
There was a dispute amongst the Yorubas in Lagos & a faction requested the help of Oranmiyan dynasty in Benin to help. This group won & this is how Benin colonized Lagos island for a few years. This annexation was later FULLY relinquished.
Until recently when the people of Benin started dissociating themselves from Yorubas, we fully counted them as part of our heritage.
Please note that until recently, ALL OBA OF BENIN heads MUST buried in ILE IFE when they die. I like the way Yorubas are not struggling to beg Benin people to remain with us.

It is still flourishing my friend... South South is the richest part of Nigeria, south south, of which 4 of the states in it was extracted from old Bendel (Benin empire), is the region that has fed Nigeria since independence. Rich, very rich region, both in natural resources, cash and food crops.

Benin Empire defeated Aworis, Yorubas are not good at wars, Yoruba is for Peace, and you are choosing war, when you know you can not fight, i t is not your calling.

After the war, Igbo properties were confiscated, but Igbo now owned more and more than what was taken from them. Their property ownership now is even more than what was lost. So even if there is a war, they will even own more than they own now. Which means, they will not only own Lagos, they will encroach into Ogun, Ondo and chase you all out. I am not Igbo, but my grand mothers were and I have some Igboic DNA and RNA. I am from Niger Delta. But I know Igbo people. They will buy out Ondo and Ogun very soon. Lagos is a done deal.

I want you to do yourselves a favor. That video of Sanwo Olu receiving Oba of Benin. Watch the video of the reception before he made that statement about his ownership of Lagos.

Oba of Benin was hailed! He was hailed as a warrior and he stood and sat, and more hailings came. while Sanwo Olu stood there, smiling sheepishly confused. He stood as a defeated man and said nothing, cos there is nothing to be said.

Lagos has been a no man's land from the time it was financed with oil and gas money from my Niger Delta. When it comes to ownership of Lagos, I own some portions of Lekki. And I do not have to be in that chaotic prison anymore for now until you little minions are chased out of that place.

In the coming war, which will be fought over Lagos, we will burn it down and rebuild it because we will never leave Lagos. Our home states will be safe cos no one is fighting here.

Biafra faced Nigerian army, Britain support, Russian support even US support for NIGERIA as against small Biafra yet the war took 3 years to end...

The death of many Civilians in the Biafrain side was as a result of malnutrition , hunger , and that's because Britain and Nigeria made sure that no relief materials entered the land of Biafra....

Biafra currency was and is called "Biafra pounds" which means they had the support of Britain which also means they had U:S support.

Epe axis and Elekan axis was what was left but it is gone now, except the place Tinubu fenced for his family by the Refinery.

I own properties at Lekki and I tell you that nothing is left. Even the Aworis that were living at Folu community along the Eleko side, they sold their fathers' grave and moved back to the boundary with Ondo.

You can not even enter my estate if you are not invited, cos you need a code to unlock your Access. So you can claim ownership from Benin people as you want, but deep inside you, you know you are defeated and have nothing left to right.

You are expecting a war so you can recover? You have no idea that Igbos have taken over your Elite bloodlines, most of the Yoruba billionaires are married to Igbo women and the Igbo women are in control of their homes unlike Yoruba women.

So the war will be in your homes and the properties will go to Igbos in the bloodlines. This next war, no one will run, we will kill you all, cos its about guns, we all can afford guns and we all have the might to fight.

Shall we begin?

Everything is vanity.

its not about guns.. its about population.. igbos do not have the population to fight the Yorubas in Yorubaland and the civil war also proves Igbos don't also have the numbers to fight against the Yorubas even in Igboland which is their own land..

a fight against Yorubas is a fight against the SW Nigeria, Benin republic, Togo, parts of Ghana, Sierra Leone, Brazil, Cuba e.t.c.

Yorubas have never lost any war...

the first war your forefathers fought they lost it and also lost thousands of igbo civilians to their senseless war.

don't fight or wage war against people who have a higher population than you and are descendants of warriors who fought wars for over 50 years.

once the Yorubas got involved in the civil war, it took less than 1 month to end the war..

Whats my business with lagos. Lagos is a state in Nigeria and i live and do business here. I have every right to be in lagos and do anything i want to do in lagos. I have properties in lagos and pay tax in lagos.

Whats your business in lagos?

Since you dislike and hate the indigenes in Lagos why are you living, working and paying tax to people you hate very much

You don't have a right to be in Lagos you have a right to be anywhere in the world, nobody is forcing you to be in Lagos but you want to die in Lagos. you have mental issues..

I am Yoruba.. so everywhere in the SW is my business.
