Bendeco02: Any time i see this type of exuse i just tire for Christians in Nigeria.
The issue is that we christians are too docile. The fulani that is killing Benue people, do they take permission from FG? No need to tire. It's reality and not excuse. Let them arm themselves and see security officials descend on them with high zeal. Aside Benue, check other states the same thing occurs. The Christian side of Nigeria don't wield power so are dominated by the Moslems. Forget whatever you read or think. The owners of Nigeria decide for the rest. It's a futile venture to argue about Nigeria now. There are better things to do. |

tubolancer: continue to blame Tinubu, he will spend eight years, what happened to the people forming their own vigilante, is Amotekun not in west, ESN in the east. Putting everything on Tinubu doesn't make sense in this present time in Nigeria, it is better you defend your ancestral land. You mean the same ESN haunted by the military for trying to safeguard the East? A Benue warlord was killed some years back who was a terror to these terrorists. Expect the security forces to target any local force they raise with much vigor and leave the real terrorists to roam freely. There's something wrong! |

Because I don't understand all these blind support from you people. You don't understand the guy you quoted. Yes APC should continue their good works of balabuing the country to shambles. Tinubu must continue at all costs. I pity old APC members who will step down for the governors and their new men. I can imagine what's going on in their minds |

Let the madness continue 😁. We told the Ronus, Tinubu must continue at all cost. The implosions they planted in opposition parties will be their inheritance in APC. Wait till election time.
All former excos who stood with the party will have to step down for the governors and their paddies. Where will they run to. Ambitions in the mud.

Politics › Re: Wealth Distribution Among The 3 Major Ethnic Groups In Nigeria by gammarays(m): 11:47am On Mar 12, 2025 |
AdeYORUFAFO: Grading the three major ethnic groups in Nigeria (Yoruba, Igbo, and Hausa-Fulani) based on their economic contributions and wealth involves considering factors such as business presence, income levels, political influence, industrial output, and access to resources. While no specific data is available that categorizes the entire ethnic group’s wealth precisely, we can analyze general statistics and trends from various sources to provide a rough estimation.
Grading Rubric: 1. Business and Entrepreneurial Activity (Presence in local and global markets, number of businesses, and economic contributions). 2. Political Influence (Access to political power, representation in government). 3. Economic Development (Contribution to national GDP, industrial output). 4. Educational Opportunities (Access to education and impact on human capital). 5. Wealth Distribution (Number of billionaires and high-net-worth individuals).
To approach this assessment using income data, let’s break down the analysis based on income classes: 1. Upper Class: This includes individuals with significant wealth, such as billionaires, top business moguls, and politicians. 2. Middle Class: This group includes professionals, business owners, and individuals with stable, comfortable incomes. 3. Lower Class: This group represents the working class, low-income earners, and those living in poverty.
1. Yoruba (Southwest Nigeria) • Upper Class: • The Yoruba have notable business magnates like Mike Adenuga, Folorunso Alakija, and others. Lagos is the economic hub of Nigeria, with many industries and businesses flourishing. • However, while the Yoruba have wealthy individuals, the overall upper class is still a small percentage of the total population, given the sheer size of the Yoruba population. • Middle Class: • The Yoruba have a strong middle class, particularly in urban centers like Lagos, Ogun, and Ibadan, but not as much as other regions. The high rate of urbanization and businesses contribute to a relatively higher middle class compared to the north. • Lower Class: • A significant percentage of the Yoruba population is still part of the lower class, particularly in rural areas and underserved parts of southwestern Nigeria. The existence of a large informal sector also means many Yoruba are not directly part of the formal economy. • Lagos, while an economic hub, has stark contrasts in wealth distribution, with a growing disparity between the rich and the poor.
Grading: • Upper Class: 5-10% • Middle Class: 25-40% • Lower Class: 50-65%
2. Igbo (Southeast Nigeria) • Upper Class: • The Igbos are known for their entrepreneurial spirit, and many prominent businessmen (like Innocent Chukwuma, Orji Uzor Kalu) have come from this region. The southeast has significant economic hubs such as Onitsha, Aba, and Nnewi. • Wealth concentration is higher in the southeast, with large numbers of Igbo people succeeding in business. • Middle Class: • The Igbo also have a strong middle class, but it is more concentrated in industrialized areas like Nnewi and Onitsha. Although many Igbos have good jobs or operate small businesses, the region still struggles with uneven development in rural areas. • Lower Class: • The Igbo population also includes significant numbers of low-income earners, especially in rural areas. The southeast is often overlooked in terms of infrastructure development and suffers from the legacy of the Nigerian Civil War. • Still, the Igbos have a strong entrepreneurial culture, which enables them to rise above their circumstances more frequently than other regions.
Grading: • Upper Class: 3-7% • Middle Class: 30-50% • Lower Class: 40-60%
3. Hausa-Fulani (Northern Nigeria) • Upper Class: • The Hausa-Fulani have political power and control over significant parts of Nigeria’s agricultural resources, but their economic wealth is not as diversified as the Yoruba or Igbo. • Prominent individuals like Aliko Dangote (Hausa descent) are among the wealthiest in Africa, but there are fewer business tycoons from the region compared to the southeast or southwest. • Middle Class: • The middle class in the north is comparatively smaller, with more significant income inequality. Northern Nigeria is underdeveloped in many places, and this region does not see as much industrialization or growth compared to the southwest or southeast. • Lower Class: • A high percentage of the Hausa-Fulani population falls into the lower class, especially in the northern rural areas. Poverty is widespread, and the region also suffers from lower literacy and educational levels.
Grading: • Upper Class: 2-5% • Middle Class: 15-30% • Lower Class: 60-80%
Grading Based on Class Distribution: • Yoruba: • While Yoruba people do have significant political power and some wealth generation, their higher percentage in the lower class and lower middle class should be acknowledged. However, their strong presence in Lagos and high entrepreneurial culture can still provide them with higher economic rankings. • Grade: B+
• Igbo: • The Igbos are highly entrepreneurial, with significant wealth in businesses, but economic development in rural areas is still lacking. Their large middle class and entrepreneurial spirit make them competitive in business, but a higher proportion of lower-income earners brings down the score. • Grade: A-
• Hausa-Fulani: • Despite their political dominance and agricultural resources, the smaller middle class and large lower class make it difficult for the Hausa-Fulani to attain the same level of wealth and economic stability. Low industrialization, education gaps, and infrastructure issues contribute to a lower score. • Grade: C
Conclusion:
The grading, based on class distribution and other factors, gives the Igbo group the highest grade (A-) because of their entrepreneurial prowess and strong middle class, despite challenges. The Yoruba group is graded as B+ due to their economic power but higher proportion in the lower class. The Hausa-Fulani are given a C because of their lack of industrial diversification, lower middle class, and high poverty rates in rural areas.
This assessment is based on general trends and data. You said Economic development in Igbo rural areas is lacking? That's a big lie. No other region comes close to Igboland in rural development both economic and other areas |
Romance › Re: How Many Bags Of Pop White Cement Can Do For Ceiling Of 148m² by gammarays(m): 8:57pm On Mar 06, 2025 |
SoftSport: Fair point on the sponge and design complexity, but 70+ bags for 118m² still seems high, feels like both estimates need a little tweaking. Ya but the second is better. Since he's buying the materials, he can buy 60 bags and other materials. If it's not enough he gets the remaining. Labourers often give quotations over the required estimate. Advantage is they get enough materials for the job. Disadvantage is they get an avenue to get more money from the client aside workmanship. |
Romance › Re: How Many Bags Of Pop White Cement Can Do For Ceiling Of 148m² by gammarays(m): 2:33pm On Mar 06, 2025 |
SoftSport: For 148m² of POP ceiling, a solid estimate would be around 50–60 bags of POP cement, 70–90kg of sponge, 2 bundles of binding wire, and the usual nails, separator, and finishing materials, so the first guy’s estimate seems more reasonable. No the sponge is too much and 60 bags wouldn't do a detailed design for 148 square metres unless he's doing simple design. Also He didn't include Soap, oil for solution. At #2500 per square meter workmanship, he might not do the work directly but sublet. That's not an issue btw
The second guy's quotation is better but he needs to increase the amount of sponge |
