Guy it's not an FG project neither is it an ACN initiative but a private one facilitated by a conducive environment provided by the Ogun State Government Is it hurting you that the only thing the FG gets to do in the east are erosion and flood control? 2 Likes |

[quote authorMajeOfficial]No, Rivers is richer than Lagos, Lagos has a higher GDP which simply means more things are made there but the per capita in Rivers is the highest by far, which means the citizens enjoy more wealth[quote]The per capita is only like $300 more in Rivers State and the population of Lagos is more than thrice that of Rivers. What does that tell you economically? Besides, per capita measures wealth in the hands of the people while GDP measures the state's output. Also if you took always the per capita of oil and gas staff in Rivers, the state's per capita will be barely half of Lagos' |

[quote author=Esther Okonkwo ][/quote]There's no market for it in Anambra. The poverty rate in the SE won't allow anyone site any commercially viable project there. PHC is the only viable city in that region which is too far away. I cant count the number of worldclass diagnostics centers all over the city of Lagos and even Ibadan. Like I posted in my earlier post, people will invest in places that will guarantee the security of their investments and sustainable ROI. Any other considerations outside this is called CHARITY |

Positive development. I'm an advocate of a two party system for a complex country like Nigeria. So you're either here or there thereby reducing the possiblity of parties emerging along religious and ethnic lines. This will also make opposition stronger and ensure whichever party is ruling sits up. I also think government should stop funding parties and let their respective members raise the necessary funds for their parties if they truly believe in its visions and ideologies |

bolaino: I've been meaning to ask this question for sometime now, I've noticed that there are some folks who are always making comments on different topics on nairaland every minute, and I find it difficult to believe that these people have meaningful source of livelihood, is nairaland a place for jobless nigerian youths? Please share your opinions I could be wrong, but it's just what has bEen on my mind for a while now,You have a job and have been following people's comments on different topics every minute (day and night)? Are you that jobless? 1 Like |

Robertomatteo: I have always heard that succeeding in Nigeria without going into crime is very hard but I have always waved it aside when I see young men and women at the top of their fields doing great. I have always wished that one day I could be like one of these people.Men I feel your pain but going into crime may be worse. You may get caught on your first try. You should pray really hard but at the same time there's nothing wrong with developing a business plan around an opportunity you've identified. There are loads of them as there should be one or two things you've seen and so strongly believe you can do better than is currently done or improve on. You can also look for angel investors in your friends and family to finance your plan but you must start as small as you possibly can. I wish you the very best bro |

What some people fail to realize that if all the Igbos move away from the state, the state won't cease to be an industrial, commercial and major business destination in Africa. [b]Here's what will happen: 1. Igbo people leave factories where they work as staff and though unemployment rate is low in the SW, the unemployed people will take their jobs. The SW won't notice anything has happened if they relocated the ones they own as they do not control 2% of manufacturing GDP in Lagos 2. The Yoruba tribe is the second largest tribe in Nigeria after the Hausas which means there will still be the human resources to sustain commerce 3. Yourba entrepreneurs will venture into spare parts and electronics business and make for the exit of those businesses. They were the first to establish themselves as Adebowale Electronics and co etc but guess what, these Igbo people came with inferior and substandard goods and rubbished the markets. Besides trading is a no brainier. It's about looking for the cheapest markets to source your merchandise and dispensing them in the most expensive markets. Tell me if Rufai, my driver can't do that. Even my mechanic who is not schooled at all can pull that off. 4. After the north, we have invested the most in agriculture which can and will sustain us 5. Oil? The first question I need to ask is if Nigeria as a country today produces the oil it consumes 6. Leadership. Should have been number one. If you look at the political landscape in the SW and the way we vote during elections, you will realize that we do not in any way tolerate mediocrity. You cannot fail to perform as a governor or mayor and expect to continue in office. We lead. We always have and always will. Before we were all bundled together under federalism, go into history and find out which region was the fastest developing and most progressive - The West. If we had remained a region, by now SA would be Africa's second best.[/b] 3 Likes |

drnoel: Tell me, who is to stop that from happening. If it can happen, then it will happen. As long as the person has lived there a long time and the law of the land allows it, why not. U people should really grow up cos that is what is pulling Nigeria back. Look, one of my uncles who has lived in Lagos for 40 years was given a chieftaincy and he now moves in the oba of Lagos counsel. His nephew contested for cousellorship and wanted to contest for local government chairmanship. These are Igbo men..That's simply because Yorubas are tolerant. No matter how many generations a Yorubaman lives in Igboland, you guys will still treat them like crap so the sooner we begin to reciprocate the gesture, the better for us 9 Likes |

I need facts and not just noise drnoel: Am sure u read ur comment before u posted. Why so much hatred of the SE and later u would come and say one Nigeria. Pls people should grow up and try not to allow bitterness or sentiments overshadow u when u post comments. Children read our comments in NL. My little cousin just asked me what u meant and incident know what to tell him. Look, now citizenship is the future not indigenicity. Now am not sure how the Lagos land laws are but if it says someone who has occupied a land for 30 yes should have claims to it, what's stops the Lagos state government from trying to keep its promise. This is peoples livelihood we are talking about.Fine. When Akala becomes the governor or Anambra, Tokyo the governor of Abia, Saheed Balogun the governor or Enugu and Pasuma the governor of Imo then come to talk to me about citizenship and I'll gladly embrace it 6 Likes |
