I agree with Dele Momodu. For example, MMA and the way it operates is a disgrace to Nigeria.

Obdk:
yes oooo and Igbo boys re already acquiring

There's got to be a name for your condition. If you can afford it go ahead and acquire it, that is the idea in the first place.

EAC on the rise.

Your reasoning is not like a true igbo son,

the governors in the east are extension of nigeria government lead by hausafulani.what do you expect them to do,to praise kanu or what?

But what matters is the people are with kanu,and dont forget we are republican in nature.

Republican ko, national front ni. You better listen to the voice of reason.

This law is made for ipods.

I bet he didn't hear about Don Wanny. Set free ko, set on fire ni.

And he named it Tutu of all things?
Na wa o

Duh, that was the name of the woman in the painting. What else could he call her, Ngozi?

nonut:
Are there two sets of yoruba?
This is the one we know.

Painting of a beautiful Yoruba princess sold for over a million pounds.
That should settle it for you.

So i jammed this Big Snake along-Ekiti Akure Road.
I eventually bought from it.. So sweet and delicious..

What is the meat you are cooking in the grill cage? I see you have a taste for wild animals.

Nnamdi Kanu spotted at a Kano bus stop eating tuwo shinkafa.

Those eyes! He needs more than clean clothes. He needs some serious psychiatric help.

He is probably dead for real.

Ojukwu... an enigma!
The first black graduate of Oxford University.

He read History,
did History,
and his actions are in all History books.

Did you know that Ojukwu taught Murtala Mohammed and Ben Adekunle at Regular Officers Special Training School, Ghana. Both ‘fought’ their teacher during the civil war
and still couldn't win..

First black graduate of Oxford was a man named Christian Cole who graduated in 1877. He was originally from Sierra Leone.

Murtala and Adekunle did not win if wining meant killing Ojukwu. But relax with these lies.

You sure suck at geography.

Lol, thanks.

more Lagos should spring up abeg... whats this incessant fight over the true ownership of lagos

Seriously, apart from the usual jokes on nairaland, only a brain damaged person would seriously entertain the idea that Lagos might not be Yorubaland.

LIFEisSIMPLE:
Before Abuja, Lagos was the capital of Nigeria, and it was the headquarter of National administration. This means that a share of the resource from all states of the federation where channeled to this region. Federal taxes on every single Nigerian was brought to Lagos, and all this where used to fasten the rate of advancement in the state. This is the reason why only Lagos state can compare to Abuja in terms of administration.

Same thing apply to Abuja, Look how much of the money from the Niger Delta is used to develop Abuja, same goes to revenue from every other part of Nigeria. For every Nigerian who gets taxed for their profit from sweat and hard work, a chunk of this resource is been channeled back to the capital, which is used for development of the city. So any attempt by any particular individual or group to take credit the development of Lagos or Abuja is an attempt born out of bigotry and hate

If say, Benue state is made capital of Nigeria, and federal presence skyrockets to record high levels i.e CBN headquarters is moved to benue, federal Secretariat moved to benue, Presidential villa, ministry of finance, ministry of defence, works and housing, transport, National administration, Senate, house of Reps e.t.c all moved to Benue. International Airport built in Benue, Certainly the condition and lifestyle of the people there will change for better. As a fraction of the income by all Nigerians, firms, states will be re directed to benue in the name of Federal tax. Benue state will suddenly appear like an investment hub where everyone will want to do business both National and International.

So if we say Lagos and now Abuja is belongs to everybody, it is not an insult, it is just basic fact. The locals of this regions should consider themselves lucky as every other state would jump at the opportunity they have or once had.

I repeat my stance No body can colombi, Lagos or Abuja, this states where developed by the hardwork of every single Nigeria making money no matter how small.

You keep saying "I repeat my stance" as if that will make your assertion true or valid. How does Lagos belong to all Nigerians more than your village also belongs to all Nigerians?
Is there a legal basis for your arguments? For example, do you have some rights in Lagos that a guy from Zamfara doesn't have in your village?

LIFEisSIMPLE:
We all want to our cities Lagos and Abuja succeed. It is good for national interest. The prayers should be for the growth to spread rapidly to every part of the country.
#Lagos belongs to every Nigerian
#Abuja belongs to every Nigerian

Columbi is not allowed in this regions

Lagos does not belong to all Nigerians any more than your village or town wherever it is in Nigeria.

This cannot be true, I've been told by some people on nairaland that iboland is a no go area for Fulani herdsmen.

LIFEisSIMPLE:
There is a difference between Limited Liability company and a publicly listed company. By accepting to become the capital of a Nation, the state becomes a public entity. It gains favour in the eyes of the nation, and in exchange loses its privacy to claimed ownership

Lagos became the capital of Nigeria when the north and southern Nigeria were amalgamated in 1914 by the British. The question of accepting to become Nigeria capital did not arise because the British did not ask for permission from anyone.
And most importantly, only a tiny fraction of Lagos state was the Federal capital.

I just aired my own truth. You are notorious for quoting both Bible and Quran.

Are you also against bible quotations? You are indeed entitled to you own "truth" even if you are completely wrong.

Exodus 20:17

"You shall not covet your neighbor's house. You shall not covet your neighbor's wife, or his male or female servant, his ox or donkey, or anything that belongs to your neighbor."

I guess Life is simple is completely ready to disobey God and even go to hell over Lagos.

There should be death penalty for these dregs of society.

americanson:
fork off i say.

Emotional man child.

imhotep:
Lagos again

Hehehehehehehehehe

Abi o, they are completely fixated.

americanson:
I will not engage you because you don't even understand what you want to argue ... fork off!

You are are one confused ranter who doesn't have a clue about the subject you are trying to broach.
Now, you need to respect yourself and talk about what you know.
