From this your comment, you won’t have a problem with sending your female child to prostitute and giving you the money to feed.

If not why not

IamGeorgie:
This is the rubbish being promoted by this show.

What is wrong if a lady is doing well and coming through financially for herself? Must you depend on a man for your finances? This poverty mindset is eating deep in this generation.

Nonesense people.

Shout out to every lady out there doing well and having a life of her own.

There is nothing bad in men spending on ladies they admire and there is nothing wrong in a lady depending on the assets nature bestowed on her to survive, everybody must not feed from their brain power, what about those without brain to feed them, think!

Oil companies came to Lagos because their is Peace here, they stay in Lagos because they can get a little value for the taxes they pay.
No one will go to an hostile environment.



No be me be Ojukwu wey carry una go war now,blame your senseless population who follow a man blindly.
No be the same thing Lamidi Cownu dey do wey una dey cheer?
No worry Nigeria go teach una sense for the second time



Even if Lagos Port is built from Nigeria Money, your barren land never contributed anything to it,
When cotton, Groundnut,Millet and the rest of it are coming from the North.
Cocoa and Palm oil, Palm kannels nuts,Timber and the rest was coming from West what did your Biafra contributed?

May be coal from Enugu,but who uses coal these Days?

I wan make Dem give una Biafra self make we pursue una comot for Lagos and south West,we need to rebuild

Now I see. I thought I was deliberating with a sensible human, didnt know it's another Yeloba Muslim miscreant known for incoherent insults

BUHARI and BAT no be the same oh.
Look Lagos, Look Daura !!

Lagos by its geographical location and natural gifts is another small country in Nigeria which Bola Ahmed Tinubu sits on top of its wealth yet Lagos has remained a slum, except for individuals building personal mansions and estates, the entire Lagos state infrastructure Lagos government ought to provide is nowhere to be found. Potholes in all Lagos roads, all city connecting roads are death traps, no monorails in a big metropolitan city like Lagos yet you lots classify Lagos as successful under Tinubus watch.


Nigerian youths just love mediocre sha, most of you need to start traveling more so you can start holding your leaders accountable

Solatium:
Onitsha and Aba biggest market in Africa yet it doesn't reflect in the revenue of their States been the biggest earners of VAT or PAYE TAXES.
where did you descend from? You sure say you go school so?
the same google you refer me to is where i will refer you to check the biggest VAT earners by states in Nigeria.
How about IGR ? human development index?


Lastly the same proximity benefits you alluded that Ogun and Oyo benefitted from Lagos is what Aba and Owerri derives from Port Harcourt.
abi no be so?

corporate organizations are more consistent in paying tax to government than the informal section which are the sector that full our traditional markets unlike Lagos that houses headquarters of almost big companies and corporations in Nigeria. So you dont expect Onitsha and Aba markets to lead to more IGR for Anambra and Abia states respectively. Onitsha and Aba markets only translate to individual wealths in Igbo land not State IGR.



and majority of Lagos IGR comes from Lagos seaports which are built by Nigerian government and not Lagos government per se.


Please stop mentioning Lagos as Yoruba achievement, use other Yoruba states.


Portharcourt seaports are not as functional as Lagos seaports due to Nigerian tribal politics you already know.


And most of the Oil companies operating in Rivers and Akwa Ibom and even Imo, Delta have their headquarters in Lagos and Lagos collects their tax.



If Yoruba witness just 6 months of civil war like Igbos that witnessed 2 to 3 years of civil war, Somali and Yemen will be far better than the entire Southwest, you know this but Igbos rose from the ashes of civil war and national hatred to become the most successful tribe in Nigeria in individual wealth by population or number.

Solatium:
In as much i see Abit sense in what you wrote can the same be said if Ogun and Oyo state?
Do you know the Population of igbos in those states who are doing well?
even the remotest part of Yorùbá land have igbos doing business and prospering on a daily basis.

Do you why it is so?.


Yoruba's embrace visitors.
They are educated and fair in their judgement.


Are there no sea presence and Port in Port Harcourt and calabar? are the topography and climatic conditions not similar?
Have you found out why igbos were chased away from Port Harcourt and rarely allowed in calabar?


Do kano and Kaduna you all run to have see Port?


You can't survive without the help of others,the earliest you admit that the less you will struggle with migraines.

Ogun and Oyo are benefiting from Lagos, their proximity to Lagos is a plus because as Lagos gets filled, the closest cities for companies, individuals to go to in order to.still remain close to their investments and businesses headquartered in Lagos is Ogun and Oyo states.


Why arent Ekiti and Ondo developed as Lagos


The said who the gods helped to fetch fireword doesn't know that fetching firewood is a hard job, that's the case of many Yorubas.



Despite the civil war, political marginalization and geographical disadvantages, Igbos have managed to build great cities and if you even visit most Igbo villages, you will think they are cities with state of the art structures built by individuals.


Onitsha and ABA markets remains the largest markets in Africa, you can google the stat.



as for Igbos traveling, Igbos are like Jews, they love exploring cities, Igbos are in all part of.the world and in fact any city or town in the world you go to and you didnt find an Igbo person there, you need to leave that city immediately because something is wrong.


So it's not as if Igbos are only in Southwest states, Igbos are scattered in Europe in millions, Asian countries, go to South Korea, in America, South American countries, African countries, Northern Nigeria without fear of their usual hatred and persecution of Igbos, Middleeast, Australia, New Zealand, just name it

You are a failure if at 30yrs you still believe Bola Ahmed Tinubu, a man in his 80s is the best man to govern you and lead you to prosperity

77up:
Ode , na Yoruba people dey slavery ba, come to SW, see better infrastructure compare to that region then come back again and tell us who be slave ,mumu

Its true, Tinubu turned Ogun state to London where he is receiving treatment for the past 2 months now, if I lie, check this thread https://www.nairaland.com/6771749/gully-erosion-sacks-residents-sango-ota#106172478

Solatium:
Personal Prosperity without collective development.

How does that amount to prosperity?
Deception is what kills you people,you make noise on nothing,go and learn from the Yoruba's on how they manage to develop their region which you all run to with the same "disadvantages" Nigeria put on their way

Naturally, Lagos is favored due to geographical location that makes it have


seaport and being at the border with another country, these two advantages made Lagos a goto city for almost all Nigerians not by the effort of any Yoruba man or woman dead or alive, it was the work of nature, so stop bragging with what you had no influence on.


Turn Ekiti state to another Lagos then I will applaud Yorubas

igbos, the only tribe whose youths are desperately and sincerely demanding for a radical change while the rest worship dying political gods of their tribe in the name of being politically smart.


Nature and posterity will be kind on the Igbos because they have paid enough price, no wonder they prosper in every part of the world they are no matter what they do

NGpatriot:
Keep quiet, lazy ipobian terrorist errand boy...

Btw, how many mothers are you going to beat at the market this coming Monday? How many shops are you going to burn and vandalize? How many food trucks are you going to burn and the drivers killed and burnt alive?

Wetin be your own regiment sef?

Are you just an ipobian or you are part of the ESN killers brigade or UGM barbaric murderers regiment or just a roadside hoodlum beating up mothers for selling to make a living on your idiotic sit-at-home Mondays?

See them, the evil Yoruba Muslims, while their terrorist brothers are causing havoc in the North, they are in the South working overtime to destroy Southern unity, evil Yoloba Muslim with devils mark on the forehead

PrinceOfLagos:
Udele1 will be out of business for now

Any criminal elements seen causing havoc or constituting nuisance in Anambra state should be sent to God

Killing of innocent people must stop in Igbo land and the entire southern states

The igbos that I know are hard working and peace loving people .. so anybody caught in the act of terorising the region should be seriously dealt with without pity..

God almighty will continue to bless and protect the good people of Anambra state, Imo state, Enugu, Abia , Ebonyi and Lagos and the entire southern states , Amen .

The only sensible Yoruba youth on Nairaland, you must be the real Yorubas, the sophisticated Yoruba Christians, not the evil Yoruba Muslims from Futa Jalon

Southeast is the only erosion ravaged region in Nigeria, go to Ogun state, you will think you are in New York because everywhere is tarred with glass - says Hafeez Tunji Dolade Ahmed from his hamlet in Ikirun in Ijebu Igbo Ogun

Haboki will forever remain Haboki.


But why cant these Muslim terrorist up North prove Igbos wrong by telling their unity begging political elites to allow this stubborn backward Igbos to go and have their own country and watch them from afar as they destroy themselves to Hausa and Yoruba amusement? But no, you want them to remain in your dead Nigeria so you can continue to use them to shine.



The whole world know that the development of Nigeria is in the hands of Igbos and that's why no Nigerian tribe want to see Igbos leave.


Let Fulani or Hausa start agitation to secede from Nigeria and watch the rest of Nigerians celebrate but let Igbos demand for secession from Nigeria and all tribes will start to shiver and prepare to fight them to finish, what does that tell you all


Igbo bu eze, the only tribe every other tribe unites to hate


Even in the family setting, nobody cares about the black sheep of the family, if he or she likes he can go missing for years nobody cares, but let the family star, that most successful son or daughter in the family decides to leave the house for a day, the whole family and community will know someone is missing.


Also, every member of a family envies and hates on the most successful child in the family but everybody loves the family drunkard, no wonder Joseph brothers in the Bible connived to sell him to slave buyers out of hatred and envy of his great future, this is the plight of Igbos in Nigeria

They need to ban dom account because Nigerian politicians are abusing it by using it to hoard dollar thereby causing scarcity.

Afonja Christian and Afonja social media influencers in collaboration with IPOB terrorists, trying to paint this abomination on innocent Muslim Northerner. Tifiakwa!

You are not ashamed your women are going to do slave labor in another country? Do you see the white, Arab, Chinese women coming to do labor for you guys? Shame, shame to all black men that have failed their women and children as a group.

My dear I feel so ashamed of my black heritage, God have mercy.


I feel heartbroken.....just take a look at those innocent babies.....black men really need to have a rethink.


How can you impregnate a poor, helpless lady and then abandon her and feel all will be well with you

Ezegedegreat:
Information claiming that the Igbo  richest man (Arthur Eze) is dead has been circulating on social media  since morning.

it a post shared online state

"It's a sad day as many Nigerians set to mourn the richest Igbo business man"

Source: https://yawabase.com/2021/09/20/breaking-igbo-ri…-is-dead-details

Arthur Eze is not the richest person in Igbo land, stop spreading fake news.



He is a billionaire in dollars yes....he is rich....but he is not the richest.



Change the title to: One of Igbo Rich Sons is Dead or One of The Richest Men in Igbo Land is Dead!

lafmaooo


Your vision to become President to enable you loot Nigeria dry just as Tinubu have been looting Lagos state is driving you crazy

hahahahaha Toks2008, this your post really hit the nail on the head lol....this is one of the major reasons so many Nigerian ladies are single.


You want tall, dark, fair, handsome, intelligent, faithful, jovial, rich, God fearing man odi mma lol.....


You that want such man, are you such man's spec


The truth is you are not the type of girl your dream man wishes to date or marry.....and unfortunately, only a financially successful man have the natural privilege to marry his spec of lady........a rich single lady will even find it harder to find a loyal boyfriend talk more of her type of man....this is the saddest reality of life

ConqueredWest:
Lazy mentality

God has His role and we have ours

God will not do everything for us.

Even the Israelites fought wars to secure Canaan in Joshua days and fought the British to re-secure Canaan in 1947

When the set time reach, God will cause events that will lead to the freedom to happen. Even if you have to fight then, God will give you great allies just as He did for the people of Israel in the Bible.



Without God's help, you can do nothing.


I have seen the powerful hand of God in my life so I speak from real life experience and encounter.


There are things I worked so hard and worried myself so much to get and I never got them then....but when the appointed time reached, without much stress or effort from me, God made me achieve those things. So in life, its not always by our own time and power but by the set time of God known as destiny.

Dear Igbo youths, in as much as I know the marginalization of Igbos by the Buhari led Nigerian federal government is real, I do not support this arm insurrection going on in the peaceful Eastern region because it is easy to arm youths but very difficult to disarm them.


Biafra will surely come when the time is ripe, God will cause events to happen to make Biafra come but turning East to a region of daily gun battle will only chase away illustrious sons of the Igbo land like us from coming back home to develop our region.



Please sheathe your swords, we are in negotiation for Nnamdi Kanu's release and I promise nothing will happen to Nnamdi

I was thinking about this last night.


ICC and all global bodies that ensures fairness and equity in leadership really need to invite Buhari over after his tenure. That man and his political allies hands are filled with blood, nothing good can come from them because their hands are soiled with blood.


Remember when Buhari won the 2015 election, he refused to move into Aso Rock until his Fulani Marabouts from Senegal came to perform their usual barbaric rituals at the villa.



Nigeria is being ruled by dark forces, and that's why things are not going well.



We need to build our government and nation on Godliness and fairness to prosper.


This is why Nigeria needs to divide so every region can worship their God or god in their own way.


America was built on the foundation of Godliness and look at them today


Our politicians worship satan, they bring in all manner of satanic powers to the government houses and top civil servants in government ministries and parastatals do same, how then can Nigeria advance

The husband is a stupid hegoat lol


Of all the beautiful, hot, classy, sexy, sempe sempe single girls that full town, na another man's leftover (wife) him keep as side chick, honestly Musa have seen it all at the gate

Yuslaw2438:
Which war have igbos fought and won civil war u lost woefully with millions of innocent people slaughtered even the one ur senseless leader called NK was fighting had come to and end because ur leader will beg Buhari to forgive him if Fulani terrorists Buhari agree he must denounce his stand on. BIAFRA automatically
You also lost with life of thousands of igbos youths had been lost already because only God know the kind of genocide going on in igboland now ..so tell which war have u fought and won ...
Yorubas coward dont fight senseless war anyhow because we are too good to go into war that we already knew the end instead we will use our common sense to do the needful

Go to school you people wont agree. The ones that went to school only went there to follow girls with big nyash only to graduate without learning a thing.


Go back and read my comment again you this Hafeez Abolade.


Let me quote myself again in bold for educated illiterates like you to understand better:


I said the political issues and challenges Igbos are facing in Nigerian politics today is as a result of the civil war they fought with the rest of Nigeria and lost



Of course if Igbos had won the war, me and you wouldn't be here arguing how Yorubas plan to foist a corrupt, walking dead man as next President of Nigeria after helping to vote in a terrorist as Nigerias President in 2015.



What concerns me, no matter who you acclaimed Yoruba political experts vote in as your next President, God has already made me and my family kings and we will forever live and enjoy our lives like kings we are, na still you commoners go suffer am.


Your only gain will be to brag as usual that your tribesman is the President while on an empty stomach, kontinu

Ibkhaleel:
MKO won the hearts of majority of Nigerians in 1993. Buhari did same in 2015 & 2019. When will an Igbo man win majority hearts?
Bring it on...NEVER !

Guess why? Because they are the children of dark, they are born and brought up in hatred and jealousy!

Good evening to all Progressives only jare, the rest can have their greetings from the pitical Yoruba man from Cotonou and the Ndi Banana Republic President in DSS dark room.

The way most of you Yoruba youths brag online when it comes to Nigerian politics just makes one wonder.


Igbos were the first to rule and lead Nigeria, so it's natural for power to change hands once in a while.


Before the civil war, an Igbo man was the President, the Senate President, appointed an Akwa-Ibom man the IG of Police, Igbo was the Chief of Army Staff, Igbo was the richest man in Nigeria and West Africa.


Igbos were completely in charge of Nigeria before civil war.


Nnamdi Azikiwe floored and carpeted your Lord and Hero Awolowo in several national elections, where were Yorubas then


What Igbos lost during and after the civil war, Yorubas gained, so what's the fuss about


What Igbos are suffering today is the effect of the civil war they lost. It is not easy fighting the rest of the country in a multi tribal nation, Igbos did it and came out bigger today, that alone should make you respect Igbos.


If Yorubas fought a war against the rest of Nigeria of which they dont have the liver and courage to do anyway, by now the whole Yoruba nation would have been forced to relocate to Togo as refugees.



The political issues and challenges Igbos are facing in Nigeria today is as a result of the civil war they fought and lost, it made other tribes to be scared of Igbos, it made Northerners to be scared of Igbos. Of course Northerners will most likely partner with Yorubas that joined them sheepishly to fight Igbos during the civil war, it's natural.



Germany, Japan and Italy were among the world powers before the second world war, but since the end of the second world war they lost to the Allied forces (US, UK, France, etc) plus USSR (today Russia), have you seen Japan or Germany or Italy topping the global superpower ratings But inwardly, Japan and Germany are stronger than UK or France but in global politics UK and France command more influence, that's exactly the case of Igbos and Yorubas plus Hausa-Fulanis.


Inwardly Igbos are superpowers than the Yorubas or Hausa-Fulanis but when it comes to national politics in Nigeria, to be honest, Hausa-Fulanis and Yorubas command more influence than Igbos since the end of the civil war and it's normal all over the world for people that lost war.



So before you start bragging and opening mouth like a typical Yoruba man, go and read your history, Igbos were the leaders and commanders of Nigerian politics to the envy of other tribes before the civil war.


That 1966 Nzeogwu led coup destroyed everything Igbos had built in Nigeria and that's why I laugh at people that call that ill-fated coup an Igbo coup. Why would Igbo political elites carry out a coup when Igbos were literally in charge of almost everything in Nigeria then It was something planned and executed by young naive military officers from all parts of Nigeria with majority from Eastern Nigeria out of their own mindset, was never an Igbo agenda coup at all. My uncle was among the coupist and he regretted their action cos they wanted to make Awolowo President thinking he was the better leader for Nigeria then not knowing he was a power-mongering, cunning man like today Tinubu who would later joined Hausa-Fulanis to fight Igbos.


President - Dr Nnamdi Azikiwe (Igbo)
Senate President - Chief Nwafor Orizu (Igbo)
IG of Police - Chief Edet (nominated from Eastern zone)
Chief of Army Staff - Gen. Aguiyi Ironsi (Igbo)



Always check your history next time

The whole North lack sense.


Go to school they wont, they will rather spend their whole time and energy reciting Quran and become Muslim extremists, tufiakwa

Coldie:
How in this world is a lady this beautiful and rich too still single?

Men I no understand o

In Nigeria, men dont marry a lady because of her success or riches, only Jigolo boys and nodowell men marry a woman because of her money, and Linda wouldn't want to marry such boys who flood her social media DMs everyday, she already know what they are coming for; her money of course.



In Nigeria, the main qualities that can win you a husband quick as a lady are:


1.) Good character and manner

2.) Respect

3.) Physical beauty (not being sexy or extremely beautiful per se, just look averagely appealing to the eyes and have good dress sense, not dressing naked or to kill)

4.) Be financially conservative, dont be a waste or a leech that drain any guy you meet.


5.) Dont act too wise when around guys, sometimes act like you dont know and let the guy feel in charge, men hate over wise and over sabi ladies, it turns most men off


6.) Be a saver not a waster. Men prefer to marry ladies who will help them save and build than those who will only help them spend, that's why men hardly consider flashy looking flamboyant ladies for marriage, unless the guy is in.showbiz or fast lane


7.) Be a woman, don't try to be a woman and a man at the same time, this chase guys away.


Some ladies in their effort to act too wise or due to numerous bad experience with guys, they tend to act as a man even when they are a lady. Being too smart and over sabi keeps a lady in her father's house for too long, every man wants to be in charge of his family, it is a natural trait in men which ladies call ego. it's not a mans fault, so as a lady dont lose your femininity, be a woman and dont try to be a man and a woman at the same time


8.) Be productive as a single lady. Have a legal source of income,be it a pety business or a job or hand work, it makes you look valuable to suitors, it makes guys see you as productive woman who doesn't depend solely on men for all your needs. And whatever you do for a living love it, be dedicated to it, and be proud of it but dont let it destroy your femininity and time to socialize and be with any guy you are dating, know how to share your time and schedule to avoid conflict


9.) Learn how to use your mobile phones and social media accounts.

In today world, guys dont fancy ladies whose phone is always ringing and getting casual calls from every Tom, Harry and Dick, it sends a negative message that you are a cheap woman, a potential cheat.


Same applies to gluing on your social media account all the time when with your partner, it sends negative.message to him except it's for your business which he is well aware.

PROBLEMS OF THIS DOLLAR TO NAIRA are:
-Incompetent politicians ruling Nigeria that destroy the economy.

-Bad leadership of CBN that are lost with ideas. They keep doing different policies and non is working. And I don't know why they can't sanction Banks too who are using parralelll rate to determine their bank rate, when official rate is constant.

-Greedy BDC/speculators/ Abokifx that are making millions of naira every day, just to get dollar at a good rate, hoard it, and create scarcity, then increase the value. And make aboki to publish it, then all Nigeria use it as new rate.

SOLUTION TO THIS DOLLAR TO NAIRA are:
- Let any registered business owner be able to get Dollar from any Bank, so parallel market won't have much effect again. It can even be certain amount per month.

-Let China Yuan be in our foreign reserve, so Nigerians can send yuan to China, bypassing the dollar that is not useful for Nigeria and China. Since 70% of importation is from China.

-CBN should have a functional website that everyone can check, than relying on site like Aboki that can be compromised by speculators for their own gain.

You are so very sound, I nominate you for CBN Governor.


This is what we have been screaming but the old fools ruling Nigeria think everything is by using guns and Police

Just look at South Africa, a country that wants to build a greater future.



While Nigerians led by Hausa-Fulani illiterates are focusing on reviving cow grazing roots to enable Fulanis from Chad, Niger, CAR, Burkinafaso, Guinea, Burundi and all the remaining wretched African Muslim countries that destroyed their nations with Islamic religious extremism and education to bring their cow to graze on Nigerian farmers' crops.



It will never be well with all those supporting Buhari and Hausa-Fulani destruction of Nigeria in the name of sophisticated politics
