^^^This una idea of democracy sef.....it's more a demonstration of craze if i'm to be honest!

But how comes Lagos is just for the Yoruba (including those from the other 5 Yoruba states), but oyel and gas found in Igboland is for the entire country!?

Lagos belongs to the Yorubas yes. As a Yoruba, I won't go to Lagos and be dragging Lagos with the indigenes. I know my origin. Neither will I say that Lagos is a no man's land when I actually know that there are indigenous Lagosians. Lagos is part of the Odu'a nation.


Oil is found in Yoruba land too.
And when we are talking about oil, you Igbos need to retract your tentacles from the other oil producing areas. Stop claiming other tribes oyel too. Stick to the oyel found in Igboland too.

magicminister:
Yep... all the people I know hit the ground running with 70/hr.
Even though I know its not black and white...

and I have asked that you give examples of those jobs.

And yea, in all your earlier posts, u were absolute. Now you realize its comes in different shades of grey.

magicminister:
Yeah right... like 500k after 5 years abi??
That one is even on the really lucky side
Youd be lucky to be on 200k afteer 5 years

But in the almighty USA, everyone hits the ground running with 75$ per hour.
Please!!!

5minsmadness:
The topic discussed other areas apart from physical weakness. Even in cognitive reasoning males are superior. This doesn't mean women are dumb, as a matter of fact women thrive a lot in jobs requiring their thinking faculties. However feminism will have us believe men and women are exactly the same of which they are not. At least not physically, biologically or psychologically.

Feminism is fighting for equal treatment.
You don't get to treat a woman less because you believe she is of different built or constituents than a man.
Dang!!!! It seems a lot of people dont understand what feminism is actually about.

magicminister:
Talking like u made a smart analysis.
The dude above that brought up the ppp phenomenon made a point.
You were just arguing that folks in nigeria can earn more than folks in u.s. (their counterparts on same level) which quite possibe but very rare.
Maybe the politicians.

Lol..... my argument is that folks in USA don't easily earn that high as you placed it. And that folks in Nigeria do actually earn high as against your belief.

wisdomiskey:
i have 2 write in a way majority of
peeeple on diz site can understand

most of peeple on dis site r
uneducated teenagerZ

Your mode of writing could make you easily pass for one of those uneducated teenagers.

It would be very foolish to assume that physical weakness relates to all round weakness.
Most jobs these days require cognitive reasoning.
You need to see some women in their zones/fields, you will be left speechless.

wisdomiskey:
for yuh mind now, yuh tink
say yuh dey make senze
hahahahaha

d only peeeple dat
support yuh stewwpid comments are:

1. yuh alternate accountz,
2. jobless teenagers lyk yuhself
3. cococandy d famous DUNCE.

But why are you writing like this?
Is it hard to spell correctly or what?

Mogidi:
Impossible, except PDP decides to join forces with APC and chances of that happening is zilch.

sit and watch.

SIRTee15:
have u heard of the word PPP -purchasing power parity?
because if u do, u won't be comparing wages of a developing nation to that of developed.
if nigerians start earning exactly what their americans counterparts earn, then I guess Americans will come down here to take jobs,
because
someone earning a million naira in naija is a king while someone earning 5000 dollars is not noticed by his neighbours.

lol.... dude stay claiming he is a businessman who travels frequently, yet he can't make a simple comparison and analysis.

Mogidi:
Haba!! I knew the illiterate didn't write it but still perplexed how humbling the tone of the letter was. Buhari's got to beg harder as his ministerial list is about to be given to the same man he so loathe. I'd throw his ministerial list in the dust bin if I was Saraki.
Ediots have no place in governance.

And you think Saraki cant be butted out?

Mogidi:
You didn't see Buhari begging Saraki here?

You call that begging?
English is truly a pot of beans.

ABEngine:
Broda mi some make even more...

Beem trying to tell the guy o.
Dunno where he got his data from.

IGBOSON1:
^^^Fair enough! You want to teach Igbos a 'bitter lesson' for supporting another Yoruba against the wishes of Tinubu and your Oba.....no wahala! How about other ethnic groups having a shot at governance in Lagos as you sideline Igbos for 'having too much mouth'!?

Basically, what i understand your argument to be is that Lagos, though being a melting-pot for all Nigerians and being the nations commercial/industrial capital, can only be governed by Yoruba; and that the rest Nigerians have to trust the Yoruba to govern fairly and represent every other ethnic groups interest when decisions are being made in Alausa! We should trust them because they're just perfect like that!

Nice one.....i 'understand' you clearly now!

No, Igbos are being taught lessons for saying Lagos is a no man's land. Y'all nees to be put in check and realise Lagos is an Odu'a man's land.

Trust them or not, nobody cares. The fact that Lagos is a commercial hub doesn't mean it doesn't have its own indigenous identity. If this identify is being threatened by some folks who think because they have been given liberty to run around, they can run their mouths too, then steps should be taken.

If the decisions made in Alausa or wherever doesn't go down well with you all, then you can all pack your kaya and waka go your zone.

Yea Nigeria belongs to everyone, but you have to respect the individuality of the tribes too. Which the Igbos are not good at. You don't see other ethnic groups dragging Lagos with the Yorubas.

magicminister:
They puling overtime.
And this I entry level job im talking about.
You kno, atleast u have the opportunity to make more money by working extra.
If I was making 500k after 5 years, I would be depressed!!!
I run a business like a said and 500k is transport money sometimes... (flight and taxi). The only solution 2 this is for naira to appreciate.... u cannot claim they pay more here... over there, as long as u put in work, u will see the money..
Here, if u put in work, u will see 140-180k per month (entry level) and 400-600k/month (managerial/professors)....

Its easier to make 100k and above abroad.
Just go to school, get a job and work hard.... thats all....

Dont let us divert this ish, this is about people working for someone/ government and not about you owning your own business. We know, it is easier to churn in more money if you are your own boss in relative to working for someone. I am not disputing that.
And I assume your travels are business related, so whatever amount of money you spend is sort of an investment.
Lol.... if u are earning 500k in this naija economy, u will be depressed? No shit. Stop bullshiting. 500k in a naija economy is enough to comfortably live on.

How many entry level job pays 75$ in the USA, pls list them. You go to school and get job and start making your money just like that? Softly please. Except if you get to work with top companies, you dont just make money like that. These western countries are not what u make it to seem like.

You are a business man, yet you can't sit and compare and analyze the economies of each countries.
Not everyone makes that high in the USA just as not everyone makes that low in Nigeria.

magicminister:
.

500k per month is 2511 dollars. Per years its aboht 30, 000 dollars,
Guy chill

I know 3 people that pull that in 3 days in u.s.
They earn about 75 dollars an hour and work about 10-12 hrs a day (6 days a week)

Do D the maths my brother.
From the way you're talking, im sure u hvent experienced the nigerian labour market like that... even the top managers will be lucky to make up to 1.5 millio month.

500k is small money and as a frequent traveller, a single trip out of the country cos btw 700k- 2m depending on how long I stay abroad.... guy chill okay... with this 500k talk I know u dont really know what u saying

nope homeboy is not a manager.... thats what I am saying, if they can pay someone with just 5years of experience that much, how much do you think they would pay someone with over 20years of experience and more qualifications, I.e a top manager like you said.

Your earlier post stated that its is easier to make 100k USD per annum as if its 70-80% of the US population that brings that in.

I have met couple of professionals who earns 150£/hrs in the UK and I don't go around saying people can easily pull in 50,000£, because I know the struggle is actually hard and real for most people.

10-12 hrs/day for 6 days? That is 60-72hrs per week? No shitting its either they are pulling over time or you are spitting porkies.

I hate to bring this in, but I just have to, I am a frequent traveller myself too. So yea I know what I am saying.

IGBOSON1:
^^^But Lagos isn't just ANY state! It's supposed to be a melting pot for ALL Nigerians innit?......Nigerias' BIG APPLE! Its governance should reflect this!

Lagos is a Yoruba state. It belongs to the Yorubas.

IGBOSON1:
But how comes they're ALL Yoruba?

So you expect to see Igbos there or. What?
After what your people dragged with the Yorubas during the last election, you think they will grant you further liberty in the state?
Yall should take several seats pls.
Lagos belongs to the Yorubas.

magicminister:
Loool... okay, I accept... maybe I am clueless. I don't like arguing what im not so sure about.
Which job pays 120kusd in nigeria??

Thats close to 30million naira per annum..

I am a business man with years of experience in the corperate world. I know certain thingsfor fact but I wanna hear u out.

List the jobs in naija that pay up to 120kusd per anjum after tax.
Just exclud oil and gas. That sectors employs less than 1 percent of nigerians.

So when u made ur first assertion, did u exclude oil and gas industries?

How much do you think these telecommunications industries are paying their top managers?

magicminister:
I know for one that first bank managers earn 400k per month or there about.
The really top oil jobs pays way more than that but how can you get it?
Its easier to make 100k usd per annum in u.s.
Before u make that kinda money working for someone, then you must have spent your life for them.

Lol!!!!
It is easier to make 100k per annum in the USA? As what? Do u live in the US?

I have a friend with only 5years of experience and less than 30years of age, who is earning about 500k per month.
Forget it, people are earning it big in naija and it is not limited to only the oil companies alone or the banking sector

magicminister:
The bolded can never happen.
Top managers in Nigeria would be fucccking lucky to make as much as 80k usd (after tax) per annum!

First of all, where do u live?
Second of all, what is your definition of top manager?
When I have seen young people with over 120k USD after tax.
Change your circle of associates/friends, they are submerging your mind.

No

Krest3d:
So even Ghanians make this same mistake as Nigerians. Instead of saying 'I am the most likely surgeon that you will be referred to', he said 'am the most likely surgeon that you will be referred to'.

Who cares!!!!
You come up with something 1% as good as this first.

DankemzI:
Do you know how many ladies I've encountered blurting out,..... After all, Genevieve is not married! Bad influence & Bad role model

Did she force them?
Or did you see her at any point actively encouraging young ladies not get married. The lady is just living her life.
Just as Eureka123 said, not everyone will get married. Even the married ones are busy disrespecting their spouses by cheating on them and impregnating ex girlfriends.
As long as they are happy and successful, the society should leave them.
