Despite all these big figures it does not translate to better life for Nigerians and not even Lagosians that are always coming top's.
Hope it's not audio investment?

Investments leads to jobs. So yes it's having a significant impact in some people's lives.

However, the level of investment is not sufficient enough to lift a substantial number of people out of poverty.

Nigeria will require trillions of dollars to lift majority of its population out of poverty.

Government will need to be more transparent and effective if the government wants to achieve that level of investment.

Sergio101:
The heat is everywhere.

Yoruba should enjoy their one Nigeria.

BTW .... since Saturday??
is it that the east has more media coverage or far more developed than the West and north., that any event that happened in the east are reported immediately in about say 1hr.
But west...... 3 days.
North......... 6 days
mind you this is not the first time am noticing this, such poor news reportage was also seen when Gunmen attacked the West.

But in East....... fiammmm..... you Will see it nairaland already.

I don't understand ooh

where did you get this silly analogy from?

The South West is the most covered region in Nigeria because of the presence of large media house across the Southwest.

lomprico:
Kanu has never liked any SE governors and he was not silent about it, d governors wanted to take him out to stop pouring sand in their garri. that is not betrayal.

Nigga stop sounding like a broken record and accept your hypocritical nature in peace.

They don't like him, yet they all met him in a meeting to pacify him, only to raid him the very next day

I guess you simply dont know the meaning of betrayal.

lomprico:
were the governors dining with kanu? you don't know what betrayal is child.

No they weren't, they just had a meeting with him in Enugu before his house was raided the very next day

PrinceOfLagos:
MKO abiola betrayed obafemi Awolowo from reaching his political goal so it's nothing new


Tinubu kept quiet because of his selfish 2023 interest when the Fulanis invaded ibarapa community , killing people , raping women, grabbing and destroying farmlands until Sunday Igboho came to the rescue only to be betrayed by the same people he fought for.

Yet the Yoruba sees Igbo as their problem

igbo governors betrayed Namdi Kanu when his house was raided by the security opperatives.

He said it himself.


You people are just a hypocritical bunch tbh.

Always quick to point fingers.

And can we also say T Orji betrayed Kalu, Peter Obi betrayed Ojukwu when he left the AFGA party that made him what he is today to join the PDP.

JavaScript90:
When did tinubu cousin become his competition?

I guess you weren't thinking before, right !

So why will premiumtimes a supposedly Tinubu's weapon expose Tinubu and his cousin?


It's weird that you are not even considering if any of their crimes are true.

JavaScript90:
Premium times, tinubu weapon of mass destruction against potential 2023 contenders. Where is Pandora expose again? After peter obi nobody is talking about Pandora again because obi was actually their target.

Anybody that is not seeing a pattern here is either politically naive, ignorant or just a core tribalist

Remind me of the newspaper that exposed Tinubu's cousin again?

I mean Tinubu's link to the Pandora reports.

Nbotee:
Nairaland ZonBs are more concerned with the photos he's taken with PDP Chieftains than the fact dat despite all his rantings d govt still isn't doing anything to him... Ediots

You people are funny

Doesn't this shows that Gumi is well connected in the political circle in the North?

Gumi can never be touched as long as Apc or PDP is in power.

PrinceOfLagos:
Which south west

Apart from Lagos that is heavily populated with people from other parts of Nigeria , which other south west state is heavily populated ?

Oyo state is the fifth most populated state in Nigeria and often provide more than a million votes in most elections.

akeeng:
The Itsekiri people answer Yoruba names, some even speak. Some part of Eden start, Akoko Edo answer Yoruba names and even speak Yoruba to some extent. Same with Ogori and Magongo people. So why do you not refer to them as Yorubas? It’s because they are simply not Yorubas. Same goes for Okun people.

We are simply Okuns NOT Yoruba. We have our own identity, we aren’t an appendage to nobody

well! identity is something I won't like to argue with.

We all identify with whatever makes us feel comfortable.


Like I said earlier, I respect your decision to identify with whatever you feel comfortable with.

Ogori magogo people are mix tho

Nigercity:
It is now clear obvious
That you aren't in good terms with English

Read my post again now slowly

For the last time
Ota is part of greater Lagos metro

Ota is part of Lagos

ZZ22:
I thought you people say you are well developed


So your idea of a developed city is actually based on rustic roofs and dilapidated structures

@ emboldened reeforces my earlier point

akeeng:
how you doing bro? Long time.

I’m Yagba, not Yo’oba

I am good bruv

I believe you people are Yoruba now but you might have been addressed as that precolonial Nigeria.

Although I understand logic and respect your decision.

ZZ22:
Go to YouTube and type aerial video of places like Ibadan, Oshogbo, Abeokuta and see shame catch you on behalf of the state capitals these people call city. Na just that Lagos dey save them if northern states capitals is way better than most capitals in SW.

I thought you people said you are well traveled


So your idea of city is actually based on youtube videos

akeeng:
I’m Kogi, Yagba, I’m not Yoruba

This is the Okun man that has often claimed he is not Yoruba I have ever met.

SlayerForever:
Larger land mass than?

than igbira

SlayerForever:
They are not really at the fore of things in Kogi.

They have a senatorial district just like igbira and Igala.

Even though their population is not as much as igbira people, they have a larger land mass than the igbira in Kogi and 6 local government areas.

They also are the largest indigenous people in Lokoja, the Kogi state capital.

Obajana the Dangote cement factory is located in Yoruba side of Kogi.

Ovamboland:
Where is the international airport in NC, NE, NW and SW apart from Lagos?

Lagos airport is serving old western region, PH airport is serving old Eastern region, Abuja airport serves all the 3 geopolitical zones in the north
Only SE people carry it in their head that international airport is shared to all other ethnic groups except ibos

Northwest has the highest number of international airport in Nigeria

Kaduna, Sokoto and Kano all have international airports

Abuja serves north central and I think Maiduguri serves North East

Enugu is an international airport for Southeast

Port is an international airport for South South

Kaduna and Sokoto has international airports for North

Lagos had an international airport. For southwest

The airport in Ibadan is not viable because of it's close to Lagos.

Akure is local airport just like Ibadan.

SATANICALLY:
Dominique is not a super mod. Only Lalasticlala and Mynd44 are...

Dominique is a super mod

And you don't necessarily know about izzi-love

It's hard to talk about issues surrounding women representation in politics.

On one hand, one could argue that women have not necessarily been given the opportunities from the start to get involved, hence there's need for special allocated slots to Women to rewrite the wrongs of the past.

On the other hand, one could argue that qouta system is not necessarily the best way to solve any problem. It will only create unfair advantage and most likely give unmerited position to people who don't necessarily deserve it.

A prime example of the aforementioned scenerio is how some unqualified individuals get to hold important positions in Nigeria as a result of qouta system.

SATANICALLY:

Dominique

There's this other lady that got in messy fight with almost everyone some years ago.

She was the supper mod before Lala and Mydd.

Righteousness2:
Lai is right on CNN! just that they both are Chronic liers.

Pastor "Trump"

CNN told us that Biden won the last election and he is currently the president of United states as predicted by sane minds.

Whereas you told us that "some god" perhaps Trump himself told you through a "vision" that Biden will never be president.

So I bet you are probably not different from Mr Lai Muhammad who lives in an alternative universe, where alternative facts (brain died lies) holds sway.

Savings with the current rate of inflation is like being high on cheap drugs.

Masterito:
I am not Into or Yoruba but you are indeed daft. You absolutely sound seriously saying trash.

it seems as if you don't understand English

zionmde:
If its not land u think Igbos will allow agberos do anyhow? And wat of the market women part? Why can't they be allowed to sell wat they want to sell. Or can those hausa guys dat fight dem everytime nko?

I am just correcting a notion. Agberos are simply after money and they don't discriminate against anyone with their activities.

I don't necessarily support their activities either.

xynerise:
So you know they were all Igbos because ?

Read my comment again bro

You don't seem to understand the comment.

zionmde:
That is where their strength lies
The ENDSARS protest was where the entire South stood in unity but guess what? They played d tribal cards and d entire unity scattered again. The sars affected d entire South o. Even d protests dat kicked off in my area, the leader was only addressing d crowd in yoruba, soro soke is also Igbo I guess


Am still waiting for someone to tell my why Igbos in lagos don't listen to kanu on any other issue like sit at home only for kanu to mobilize dem within 24 hours to destroy lagos, I mean the Igbos we are talking about here are spare part dealers, okirika sellers, roadside sellers, electronics dealers etc. Den at the same time d Mushin, oshodi, and all other agberos scattered around lagos chose to stay in their house and watch Igbos burn down properties .

I used to hear a lot about how educated South westerners are until I lived in lagos moreover the Endsars blame on igbo goes a long way to show how dumb a lot of persons are

U have never heard of Igbos destroying properties or fighting anybody before outside igboland even though I do witness firsthand how the agbero task collectors treat dem, in market igbo women are not allowed to sell anything yoruba women are selling, upon all these u will never see dem fight anybody yet the so called educated people will always be first to say igbos don't respect their hosts.

The North can keep playing their division cards well as long as some so called educated dummies are falling for it no problem

@ emboldened is highly sensational

Agberos are not anyone's friends, they are not even friends with their family members when it comes to issue of money.

They allow the highest biddder to sell whatever they want to sell.

Stop this silly prosecution complex.

TarOrfeeek:
The Yoroberh Accomodators have to be more matured

They went on this relentless looting of Igbo businesses after the tribal angle had been played by the government.

This is the inherent reason Nigeria WILL never progress. The divisions are way too much.

There WILL never be a common ground.

Please list the igbo businesses that was looted during the Endsars

We saw how ShopRite, TVC and a number of Tinubu's business were looted by a "politically motivated angry mob"

There was very little ethnic colouration to the "organized looting" that took place in Lagos last year but largely a political vendetta against one man.

I have to say I have never seen a lawyer as dull as Malami

Lawyers are skilled liars. They make a lie look like the truth. They fight with legal technicalities and argue based on logic.

How on earth can Malami prove that Sunday Igboho is a terrorist because he changed some money with a company that was only later indicted of terrorism. NB: as at the time Sunday changed the money, the company was legitimate business operating in Nigeria and UAE.



How can he prove that Kanu killed a man (Dr Akuniyi) when Kanu himself was in the prison at the time of murder. He was even imprisoned by the Nigerian authority.

Is he suggesting Nigeria prisons are compromised?

This is why you need to go to school.. but you said No that Education is a scam. You didn't understand what he said and you succeeded in saying arrant nonsense .

Bro, are you intoxicated or did you hit your head on something?

Perhaps you should go over our dialogue and understand the context of my
Comment.

DOTian:
From 1966 till date!
The South West has ALWAYSS sided with the crudest and the most retrogressive part of the country simply for percuniary interests! No one in his right senses can look at Nigeria today and say he or she is proud of his fathers and uncles who went on a genocidal expedition to create this mess. Buhari was the height of it! There was absolutely no reason to foist a mujahideen on all of us apart from greed, envy and jealousy! You guys wouldn't stand a minority president and so you tagged him an Igbo president so as to assemble and muster as much ethnic hate as you can just to elect Buhari! You succeeded but it's starting to look like Nigeria will fail as a result..

Please mention one Northern dominated government Yorubas has ever sided with before 2015?

It seems you don't know your history
