There is a reason why apart from lagos, the rest of the SW is backward.

the SE has advantage in domestic investments? grin hahahahaha Lagos just got 11b dollars refinery from dangote and co. advantage in your dreams!!!

mention just 1 ibo billionaire that made at least 30% of his money without venturing into the southwest

once again the joke is on you grin
When you mention the SW, learn to specify- Lagos is what you are talking about here and it is different from the archetypal backward SW. I don't think any igbo billionaire will tell you he made his money from ogun, oyo, ondo, or osun.
Besides, Most billionaires in Nigeria made their wealth from oil, so the niger-delta is responsible for most Nigerian billionaires.
And the reason why lagos is of any relevance is because of one naijeria. It has somehow managed to utilize the best part of Nigeria, leveraged on its sea-ports and airport to create something remarkable. It is a parasite on the rest of Nigeria and has massively under-developed the rest of the country.
For exmple, in separate nations, oil companies have no business in lagos. It has no significant oil or gas. That is just a single example of how lagos is a different beast from the rest of the SW parasitizing on one naijeria.
Cities like Lome and Port Novo are what they are because they have no one-naijeria to leverage on and that is the natural level of Lagos. If Nigeria divides, and the resultant nations begin to domesticate their resources, lagos reverts to its natural level.
So be grateful for once.

at the end of the day our tolerance and tact has made my region the safest to do business. the sw gets 75% of the FDI coming into the country.

Though the lagos sea-port and airport is a big advantage that has made foreign investors to over-look how unsafe the SW is. If i were you i will be more concerned with domestic investments in which the SE has an advantage.
The day Nigeria divides or any significant upheavals happens in Nigeria, these guys leave.

And no she did not deny being biafran. There is no biafran state yet so there is nothing to deny.
What she denied was stating publicly that she is biafran since there is no biafran country in existence.
She is un-apologetically igbo,and an ambassador of igbo consciousness as depicted in all her literature and many speeches. This is a lady that singlehandedly wrote a best-selling book on the biafran nation.
The day the igbo nation become biafran, then she becomes biafran. That is not difficult to understand for anybody with a brain or not suffering from bad belle.

Chinua Achebe being a far superior writer is her mentor. She has attested to that many times. It is on youtube.

Fucck her angry. If i were the husband, i will damn it all to hell, send her and boyfriend packing and face the consequences.
I am certain i will sort it out with a few bribes here and there or scaling down the business a bit depending on the scenario, and then i will deal with her squarely for attempting to ruin my life.

Women wants very successful men and very comfortable lives but don't want to suffer the obvious consequence. Ain't gonna happen.
Either as an alaba importer or as an offshore under-water welding engineer for Mobil, the more money you want to earn to make your family comfortable, the more of your time you will need to sacrifice.
Any woman that use that as an opportunity to engage in illicit affairs should be kicked out without apology and replaced with a woman with sense.

My dear, check the number of candidates from the regions gaining admission into the universities and those graduating top of their classes, you'll find out that southeast is on the top even in universities located in the north and south west. Isn't that enough indicator of the superiority of the southeast in academic pursuithuh
This is also an under-stated fact.
Most if not all Universities in Nigeria has significant numbers of Igbos. After the ethnic indigenes of those schools, igbo sub-groups usually make the second largest group of students virtually in most universities in Nigeria.

The southwest were once the top in education but as at today, the Igbos are the most educated in Nigeria. From statistics by Waec, Neco to NBS education statistics. Latest report by the NBS shows that Imo state is the most educated state in Nigeria. Delta and Anambra follows.
Imo state is by far the most literate state in Nigeria and also with the highest number of professors.

This is not a blame game. It is a known fact that the SE is full of miracle centres where exam malpractices are carried out with abandon. If both of us are fasting and I find a way to sneak out out and eat a large bowl of Akpu, I shouldn't be in a position to accuse you of being weak and tired at the end of fasting.
Shut up.
Miracle centers are everywhere. Have you been to lagos, ogun and oyo? These are the bastions of examination fraud.
Yorubas are known for any form of fraud and '' deceiving to obtain'' so you can expect they will dominate in examination fraud as well.

a lot of ikechukwus were in charge under Jonathan and NNPC failed to remit billions of dollars in oil revenue.

so you are so shallow minded you believe there are good hands and managers from your own side of the country but every appointed adamu must be incompetent. can't believe I'm arguing with someone that can't out 2 and 2 together
Ikechukwus in GEJ government were the cream of the crop. If you think i am wrong, then prove me wrong.
Even in the difficult power sector, Barth Nnaji in his short term was more effective than whatever buhari has now. He is an accomplished american robotics Engineer, btw.
And It seems you have a problem with comprehension. I did not say every adamu is incompetent. Ofcourse, there are brilliant people everywhere.
But there is no way, the majority adamu's northern region holds in government is right. Over 80% of the people in buhari's and GEJ's government are adamus.
It definitely does not tally with their educationally disadvantaged status. Aversion to western education is very rife in adamu's region yet they control our government.
How can that be good? How will Nigeria develop with such madness? That is my argument.
There are brilliant people everywhere, but sorry without being politically correct, the number of people fitted for technical government service should be skewed in the favour of the south, atleast for now. It is not my fault, it is decades of educational head-start that the south has on the north.
If you can't see that, then you are not as smart as you think you are.
I don't have time for political correctness. Nigeria is too backward for me to be politically correct.
The white man that selected the super-eagles chose most of them from igboland and other parts of the south because more of them can be found at the highest level. He has no time for sentiments.
How many northerners can you find at the highest level of scientific and economic discourse? These northerners barely leave the country.
Incase, you don't understand my post, ask someone to explain it for you before you start making arguments i didn't make.

you are the one being clever by half. are the current NNPC executives not doing OK? what gives you the impression an Okechukwu would have done better if he was appointed instead of the adamu? my point is let each person/handler work with the people he's comfortable with. both the NNPC and the DSS were dominated by SE/SS under Jonathan. Jonathan's appointments were also lopsided and no one cried blue murder.
Given the fact that adamu has been in charge of your country since decades, it is a fuccking shit-show.
Adamu comes from a region where western education is still seen as a pariah, yet government agencies is filled with the likes of adamu and his people.
How do you reconcile that?
The old NNPC boss under GEJ was also a northerner and we all know how he looted to stupor.
Jonathan appointments were lopsided against the SW a bit. The north still had the far majority because they always do and they wrecked that government.
Take a look at Dora Akunyili and Ngozi Okonji Iweala. These are highly educated people that made impact. Among the best in their fields.
Aside from Jelani Aliyu who has not done anything as of yet, give me a northern equivalent of these brilliant amazons in any sector of buhari's government.

dnt rewrite history. It is too early for that.
Point 1: the people of south west are fond of voting for Party A in a governorship election while they will turn their back on the same Party A during presidential election.
Obj didn't win the presidential election without the south west votes. The people of south west voted massively for him and his victory was a joy ride.
Make google your friend.


Point 2: ever since the creation of Pdp, lagos state has always been out of reach from pdp. Obj planned to starve lagos financially so as to lay hold on it but all thanks to Tinubu who called obj's bluff.

Point 3: going by the 2015 election result, it shows that a combination of north and south west can lead any party to to Aso rock irrespective of the background of the aspirant.

The power remains in the north but the south will decide who will use the power and that decision has been the sole responsibility of south west. If you think that I am lying, then Ask Goodluck jonathan
Lie.
The SW supported olu falae who got trounced very hard.
OBJ was more in tune with the SE than the SW because he knew where his votes came from. OBJ disgraced prominent yoruba leaders and sent them into perpetual journey of opposition. Abi where do you think the word ''perpetual opposition'' come from?

Sole responsiblity of the SW? hahaha . Even tinubu is not bold enough to make such deluded claims.
una eye go clear very soon. The day a yoruba man makes the mistake of running for presidency is the day you will know how Nigeria works.
For now, the SW can keep hiding under northern candidates to get any bit of relevance atleast till 2019. It is smart, i will give you that.

Mor0nkiri is just being clever by half.

in that eagles squad the only northerner is Ahmed musa.
there was a single Yoruba player, ekong from CRS and Moses from Edo state. all other 8-10 players (are from the south east). I guess we can also call them Biafran eagles.

Yes Buhari's appointments have been lopsided. But this federal character thing will only keep pulling us back.

if we want to continue using federal Character let's make sure when the eagles are playing we have

-2 sw players, 2nw players, 2 se players, 2 Ss players, 2NC players at least on the pitch at all times.
- if a player from any region gets injured or has to be substituted then someone from his region must replace him
- if there is no one from his region them let him remain on the field.


that's how dumb federal principle is
You are being smart by half.
The people in football are the best we have. They play at relatively highest level for Nigerians currently in football. Ignoring federal character is the obvious move here to maximize our best pool.
On the other hand,You can't tell me that the people in buhari's government are the best we have given the fact that the regions majorly represented are more or less educationally disadvantaged.
The people buhari trusts are not the most educated, the most technical or an authority in their fields.
Their only selling point is that they are northerners.

Has pdp ever zoned its presidential slot to the east?

How many ibo politicians r holding important post in pdp

Just answer my simple questions.
OBJ was not a friend of the south west and he won without their votes. Which is why the SW was in opposition all through OBJ and even yar'adua tenures. We can't forget how OBJ dealt with tinubu. cheesy
The north just needed a southern bloc to win. It could as well be the south-east or the south-south.
As long as a candidate get northern support including the middle-belt, any southern bloc is enough. It dosen't have to be the SW.
