TruthsFM:
BUA and Femi Otedola should be there now

BUA is there if you look more closely.

Otedola is excluded because he has sold his biggest businesses (aka liquefied his biggest assets). The largest chunk of Forbes' valuation of people's worth is based on the value of their businesses, as they do not have access to their bank accounts, so they can't tell Otedola's worth when he has sold his business off.

If they had access to back accounts, Nigeria would have more billionaires because of the looting many have done.

Even Dino Melaye and Oshiomhole are dollar multi-millionaires without ever having owned any business or had private sector jobs. They just loot and take bribes!

You are right! Igbos have the most middle class among the ethnic groups in the country. But on the flip, don't you think this republicanism spirit is a big undoing for them, how will a group of people resolve they don't have leaders or don't respect their elders...even in the jungle , animals choose leaders to pilot them.

Moronic, unsubstantiated, chest-beating claims!

We have some data that can suggest middle-class levels.

Middle-class people tend to have good salaries, own small or medium businesses and they buy goods that generate VAT.

I have removed Lagos from SW figures and FCT from NC figures so you don't say it is unfair. That is me being unfair to Yorubas because they are the tribe who have the largest proportion of their total & best wealth and business activities located in Lagos; but removing Lagos gives their figures more ethnic purity and a better odds of not claiming it is not like-for-like comparisons. See the figures below.

Salaries indicators via PAYE collections
SS - 227.8bn
SW (minus Lagos) - 90.4bn
NW - 77.0bn
NC (minus FCT) - 58.2bn
SE - 50.2bn
NE - 45.1bn

SMEDAN 2017 records on SMEs by region
SW (minus Lagos) - 14,896
NW - 11,731
NC (minus FCT) - 10,553
SE - 9,731
SS - 9,502
NE - 5,449

Self-employed income indicators via Direct-Assessment Tax collections
SW (minus Lagos) - 5.0bn
NW - 4.8bn
NC (minus FCT) - 4.7bn
SS - 3.8bn
SE - 1.5bn
NE - 1.2bn

Middle-class spending measured via VAT collections
SS - 135.8bn
SW (minus Lagos) - 89.6bn
NW - 56.7bn
NE - 27.7bn
SE - 25.3bn
NC (minus FCT) - 19.5bn

Middle-class spending measured via internet subscriptions
NW - 28.12m
SW (minus Lagos) - 26.1m
SS - 22.5m
NC (minus FCT) - 22.3m
NE - 15.0m
SE - 14.6m


Now, you can spend some time factoring in population size differences. Without a reliable census, we can't know for sure; but speculations are roughly NW (25%), SW including Lagos (19%), NC including FCT (16%) , SS (15%), NE (13%) and SE (12%) as the distribution of where people live in Nigeria.

SW minus Lagos (12%) and NC minus FCT (15%).

Whatever way you juggle, cut and factor it, the point will still remain that Igbos don't out-excel, dominate and out-beat all other Nigerians in the economic prowess or performance. You are making empty chest-beatings as usual!

You guys need to relax with your boasting! You are increasing irritating lots of Nigerians and alienating yourselves.

In the past, many pastors married and converted ashewo women and they became responsible and religious but these days, many guys flow with hookup girls.

Guys can u really marry those religious hookup babes u are dating or u guys are only having fun? Are u trusting enough of ladies? Remember some of them only did hookup because of some problems bordering on finances, like been with younger siblings who need money or sick parents etc.

Nah!

I would leave such women, and the task to convert them, to "Progressive" men like dauntless15 to marry.

I would take my time to be with a more responsible and cleaner woman.

Stupid report. The so called revenue federal government is sharing is from crude explored in Bayelsa and akwaibom states sold in International markets largely . It's like brain dead people in Federal government these days. Why not start resource control and we still see if those states will not be one of the wealthiest. Idiots.

You are the one talking nonsense.

Without white people, Bayelsa and Akwa Ibom would not have the capability of getting the oil, just like the entire baboon race could not discover the oil, had no need and saw no value in the oil before the whites came.

It makes more sense to judge states in Nigeria by their agriculture, manufacturing and services. Those are the areas the baboon race does not need too much of white help to develop and can show their prowess.

So what is the productivity of Bayelsa and Akwa Ibom in their agriculture, manufacturing and services sectors? How much are they making from these?

Bayelsa is the most poorly run state in Nigeria since 1999 because the baboons there are prolific at picking bad leaders!

casualobserver:


I also wonder how SE leaders will be pleading for NNamdi Kanu’s release a man whose mission is the secession and at the same time complain that it is the turn of the SE to be president or expect others to vote for a Se president. I saw a video over the weekend where a prominent Ibo leader actually said Kanu is the greatest leader to come out of the SE since Zik and Ojukwu and the people of the Se hold him in reverence. Your leader wants to leave Nigeria and you are behind him but you want us to vote for you to rule Nigeria? Somebody please explain to me how this makes sense to the Ibo man.

Let’s not even start on the utterances of Iwuanyawu. I don’t want to start on a Monday with tribal issues but trust me you make no sense to the rest of Nigerians and most of us don’t care anymore because we are exhausted trying to figure out the logic or thought process behind your utterances and actions. To us your actions and utterances are counter productive to your well being.

Trying to engage the SE on issues like Ibo presidency, Biafra, Lagos, sit at home, Kanu etc is futile because it is never a discussion that has any basis is common sense and eventually we just say ok, we hear you because it is exhausting and makes no sense.


You want Ibo presidency but you abuse the voters that can make it happen

You want Ibo presidency but you want biafra
You want development but you leave your zone every day

You want development but you invest outside your zones

You want Kanu to be freed but you attack your own zone with sit at home and UGM.

You want to love peacefully in Lagos and other zones but you attack and insult the hosts

You build illegally but you want to be compensated for building illegally

Just make it make sense! I don’t mean to insult a tribe but it has gotten to a point where no one even bothers when the Ibo man is complaining because your utterances and actions make no sense so now it is like leave them that’s how they behave. Nobody even cares to listen to what you are saying anymore.

Many of us have that family member we love but don’t take seriously anymore but we have to indulge because they are family. The one who when you ask what are you doing, will tell you I am going back to school to do a masters or PhD, yesterday he started nightclub business, before that it was restaurant, before that it was a contractor, before then he wanted to be a musician. Every time it is something new, every time he makes no head no tail. The one who always brings in irrelevant issues at family meetings and drags on and on but you have to call to the meeting because he/she is family and if you don’t he will start moaning. This unfortunately is what the Ibo man has turned himself into. A caricature the family has to indulge. I say this not to abuse or insult but as a call for introspection. Your may see the logic in your actions and utterances but to the rest of us we don’t understand what exactly you want, you don’t make sense, your actions are counter productive to your stated aims and we are tired and have just left you to your devices.

Nigerians are tired of your antics, even recently the Nothern elders forum said let the Ibos go if they want to go. A few weeks later (last week) another prominent Northern figure Prof Jega called for Tinubu to restructure the country before 2027…that tells you even the North are tired! But Interestingly the Ibos have been quiet on that significant pronouncement. When the Ibo man is ready to be serious and articulate what his real issues are and act in a manner that is consistent with his stated objectives, let us know. In the mean time, the rest of us are learning not to take you seriously but to ignore you.

Very powerful write-up.

Sit at home is one of the most useless approaches adopted by any group. But again at this point, it now feels like it is being imposed on the people because left for them everyone wants to go about their businesses but those boys won't allow them. The devastation and intimidation is more than outside SE are aware of. Some times they impose one whole week, other times 2 weeks sit at home. Carry guns up and down. I don't know why news agencies are not going to cover their activities, maybe something will be done to eradicate it

They don't want peaceful Southeast because they know that Igbos now preferred to stay back in their region and invest unlike after the civil war large percentage of Igbos migrated out of their region to other zones especially north and west, they are fueling the peaceful region with their actions in politics to make the region chaotic, Igbo land is now prosperous, state like Anambra now there are high migration to the state especially those from west, unlike 10yrs ago, before you hardly see Yoruba man but now they're in thousands, doing different jobs , selling agbo is very common in streets of Anamabra, it will seem as you are in the street of Lagos, not just west even other Nigerians from other regions, so it's hurting their own growth, instead of us to migrate to their place the reverse is the now case, so they want a non peaceful Southeast to force our people out and slow our progress that's their game.

Okay, Nnamdi Kanu is not going to be released because of this.

You now need to step up your protest so he is released. Step it up by killing your father in protest, okay?

If after that, MNK is not released, step it up another notch by killing your mother.

The bitter truth is self-determination can't come this way only economic development can hasten self-determination.
