truefact:
There is many igbos in big positons of big companies in ghana that the op didn't mention ...although mostly igbos women. ..companies like Vodafone, Guinness etc..

Zenith bank which is probably the biggest Nigerian company in ghana is igbo-made.
That guy you quoted is still wailing over that thread of igbo mental superiority.

It could also be relative low level of competition .,
Many of these guys hate competition.

haha.
Unemployment in Nigeria is at all time high.
States in Nigeria are going broke with civil servants turning to almajiris.
Keep impacting foreign lands .
Dunces.

idris4eva:
all these celeb will do anything jst to stay relevant. Imagine thee useless dress she wore compared to that beautiful black lady and her name is even rukayat a yoruba girl for that matter o all because of been a celeb shechanges her name torukky sandal.......#classless bit*h

I think her is rukevwe not rukayat.

I think he meant okorocha.

Lagos state currently reeks of monumental corruption.
This is where every patriotic Nigerian should direct attention to, not false assets declaration that happened eons ago and has no bearing on Nigeria's current economic well-being..

joseph1832:
Mr man, I know not whether Wike submitted a petition to the EFCC, its easy for us all to shout and rant, Wike who is in more position to follow his petition and see it come to fruition is hiding under the guise of "the EFCC hasn't done anything about it" according to you, shouldn't that be a clear indication that something is amiss?

There is nothing else wike can do.
The APC his arch-enemies controls the EFCC.
The man that wike accused of corruption has hands in the president's as$-hole.

The guy is smart. Atleast he knows how to lobby.

joseph1832:
You should know the EFCC can not have its eyes every where, that's why they rely on well meaning citizens andthe civil society to petition them when they have evidence of frauds...

So the corruption of two former governors of the same state is conveniently easy for the EFCC to miss.
I see you conveniently refused to reply the fact that wike already provided proof to the EFCC of amaechi's corruption which is evident anyway.
Anyway, i can't fault you for lack of attempt however childish.

AdeniyiA:
Let's grow beyond sentiments my guy, should we close our eyes against any erring politician because of his affiliations?, the question is, is Saraki guilty as charged?

There is something called ''the greater good''.
Anyway, i hope you are praying that buhari wins. Because if saraki returns as the senate president which is a very real possibility, buhari and the APC are in trouble.
They better get their bases covered.

joseph1832:
Like you submitted. Mtscheew. Please learn to reduce your noise making abeg.

Have a petition been submitted to the EFCC? You as a concerned citizen should forward your petition so the EFCC can move against Fashola.

So it is the job of anti-corruption watchdog to wait for petitions before springing to action?
Only in nigeria.
Wike said he has given the proof of amaechi's corruption to the EFCC and the ICPC, yet nothing has been done.

januzaj:
hol up hol up hol up...you are the one witnessing an abuse of power...what I am witnessing is pure justice....do me a favour....gerrara here....gerrara here for real

Pure justice indeed.
APC didn't knew of this before accepting him to the party?
What of amaechi that said we steal becuse you don't stone us, thereby wasting billions of rivers money on a phantom monorail as a conduit?
What of fashola and the tinubu connection, where every major project in lagos is undertaken by tinubu's firms including tax collection.
Don't you think those cases are more important than a false asset declaration?

CyberWolf:
This shows the level of damage the north and their slaves in SW has done to this country. Imagine a Judge behaving like an ignorant morron before the whole world. Nigeria is doomed with these kind of imbecciles heading our judiciary..Though I don't give a Bleep about Saraki, but his lawyer is just exposing how incompetent the Judge is...SMH

I am ver happy with the devt.
If saraki is removed, the national assembly will be thrown into disarray for the next four years, the PDP and saraki loyalists in the APC promising revenge.
If saraki remains the senate president, then buhari has got a serious war on his hand, with the PDP and saraki making sure he never get a moment rest and vetoing every of his policies.
It is a win-win for the 5%.

joseph1832:
Kindly submit a petition to the EFCC with your evidence. Court cases are not trial ed by mere hear say and hypothesis brother. Facts and evidence are the other of the day.

What happened to fashola 78m naira website scam?
Don't tell me the EFCC have not heard of it.

Buhari better get saraki out of that post with all these witch-hunt, if not, the senate leadership would be firmly in the hands of PDP as saraki would be absolutely vengeful.
There is no going back now. The die is cast.
Winner takes it all.
PDP vs APC.

eligibility:
Saraki is so pompous ,let him be dealt with.
He will be areested before the end of this month.
He who leave in the glass house must not throw stone ..

So it is more about vengeance, not the greater good.
okay.

I don't like saraki, but anybody that believes this is about justice is retardded.
We are witnessing an abuse of power, a witch-hunt and an art of corruption in itself.
What a charcade.

Reference:
Nigerians are so ignorant. They just don't know how things work. Just sentiments.

Listen. True democracy is the only guarantee of sustainable performance. It is not about who wins elections but about the process by which he or she got there. Ambode was selected and so he is accountable only to the selectors. If he tries to satisfy the electorate he will end up like Fashola.

I said it a couple of years ago Houphet Boigny was Premier of Ivory Coast for decades and under him the Ivorians enjoyed unprecedented boom, the number two economy in west africa but the laws of democracy caught up after Boigny died and today Ivory Coast is no better than Liberia.

If Lagos fails to instal democratically elected governance time and again it is heading for calamity. That is unavoidable. The kind of turbulence that will rock the state post Tinubu will shock many. These are the issues Nigeria has surmounted by a peaceful transition, the reason we say Jonathan is the best so far, that is because the system was allowed to work and popular will was respected.

People constitute the wealth of nations and you cannot have individuals no matter how influencial and powerful deciding and setting the standards of their lives and living. Very soon contempt is bound to emerge and unfortunately Lagos has very weak democratic structures to fall back on. There is trouble ahead. The Ekiti we all laugh at is miles ahead of Lagos and the Osun we are amazed at is the vital sign of what is to come.

Power corrupts, absolute power corrupts absolutely, eternal power outside God can only be satanic.

Ekiti is doing very fine.
They are not caught up in the whole APC-omo-oluabi-tinubu bullshitt.
Very sophisticated .

''Even if ambode presents nepa bill, i will still vote for him''
''Jimi agbaje is not omo-oluabi, our oba said so''.
Low IQ mofos.

I am impressed by dbanj.
Nearly banging one lady on stage, and getting head from another lady.

Another striking fact in the article is that high IQ whites tend to be nerds, with very low performance in sports.
The igbo nerds tend to very good in academics and sports at the same time, though i agree that this is not necessarily limited to the igbos.

OnReflection:
It is indeed unfortunate that a study which was intended to serve a different purpose is now been used to advance illogical arguments about Igbo exceptionalism. How do you build anything on lies? See the way you even have one commentator, who has probably never taken or seen an IQ test in his life, building castles in the air? Then there is another talking up his ancestral links to Israel?

It would be funny if such inverted thinking was merely confined to NL. Problem is; given how marketable it is, it yet another myth that has already taken flight.

Yes, the studies were meant to prove black IQ, but at the same time end up highlighting igbo exceptionality.
That is the bitter truth.

This woman is probably the greatest african woman alive today.
She is definitely the most powerful according to forbes.

And the sad truth is that the this IQ advantage will not translate into any meaningful development for the igbo in the Nigerian geographical space.
Not when those with the highest voting blocs in Nigeria are not considered important in an IQ survey.
Smh.

BlackBaron:
I think a lot of factors come into play here.
Environmental, social and pool of population to select from.
I'll be willing to know what the score is for populations in Nigeria rather than from immigrants.

High IQ of some Asian nations has not translated into them becoming the most prosperous, wealthiest countries versus countries they've regularly outperformed.

Colonialism played a big part in that.
But as you can see the high IQ nations like india, china,japan, korea,israel are leading the world greatest transformation in economic and social development.

The fact that the igbo ethnic group is at the fore-front of secession, not once but twice is also another proof.
It dosen't take intelligence to know Nigeria will never truely develop, but it takes High intelligence to want to upset the apple cart by making radical changes which is seccession.
High IQ groups tend to want to create their own space.

It is not uncommon to hear from Nigerians how igbos will outsmart you if not careful.
That is a function of IQ.
Deny it all you want, it will still be there and evident.

Kastonkastroll:
Look at this clown... How is IQ measured? It is not by human intelligence? If we are even to go by your wrapped logic, then the Hausa's are more successful than you folks because they are better than you when it comes to commerce/business and making big money. There is always a clear distinction between small businesses (ibos field) and big businesses (Hausa's field)

And I repeat, YORUBAS ARE THE MOST SUCCESSFUL ETHNIC GROUP IN NIGERIA AND AFRICA AT LARGE. There is no argument about that. Gosh

Big businesses owned by a single very wealthy in the midst of rampant poverty are a clear sign of poor intelligence.
The igbo model has clearly proved more successful. The SE is the most competitive commercial cluster in Nigeria.
We don't have a single big man owning a multi-billion dollar business, while his brother's children are almajiris.
That is for less intelligent folks.
Btw, it is a matter of scientific fact that the igbos are the most entrepreneural group in africa. I can dig up links if you want.
And no, the yoruba is not the most succesful group in Nigeria.
You were not when the south east was under a civil war and systematically marginalized, leaving a vacuum of power in the south for your opportunistic selves to take..
You will never be now that the igbos have undergone an awakening.

.

SonOfEl:
are you minding the buffoon?

The guy is an idiott.
The yoruba land did not suffer a civil war yet still reek of 19th century.
There were never marginalized against in their entire history.
And yet they have not been able to translate it into any meaningful advantage over the igbo.
IQ, i tell ya.

The fact that the igbos were able to rise from the ashes of the civil war with just 20 pounds to bear a collection of Nigeria's most modern cities and people is just a testament of our mental superiority.
Go to places that were not touched by a single bomb at all, and all you see are brown roofs, polio, poverty, mass illiteracy,religious fanaticism, backward socialism.
God bless ndi-igbo.

Kastonkastroll:
I think this intelligence supremacy between you ibos and yorubas was argued intensively around 2010(that's here on NL). If I could remember vividly, eziachi the only intelligent ibo folk I have ever come across on NL was beaten black and blue with his lies, history distortion and all that.

I'm not saying ibos are not intelligent but you guys are not anywhere close to yorubas when intelligence is measured. When the whiteman came to odualand, he was kinda surprised that the Yoruba's were already writing, producing our own local weapons and other stuffs for home-use.. If you can get any access to Nigeria archives, you will find a documentary reports of Yoruba intelligence that was sent to the queen of England, which was compounded by her missionaries to Africa.

BTW what do you mean by Yorubas are not progressing? The last time I checked we are the most successful ethnic group in Nigeria....... And as for learning from other Nigerians, we have already done that. I won't mention it here, but there are some other things the yorubas knew other nigerians are better than them on that, what we did was to simply watch and learn from them. And today we have perfected that knowledge we learned from other Nigerians to the extend that we are even better than them on that.

Eziachi and his online battles is a proof of what?
Go to the outside world of business, commerce and even the academics and you would see what IQ really means.
And no, the yorubas are not the most successful group in NIgeria. In your dreams maybe.
