N17Billion is a drop in the bucket for a state reputet to have 20million residents (a sizeable inconsequential proportion running away from their own fatherland).

Thats just over 1.25 billion dollars, for a state of 20 million people (thats still serious poverty!!!)

Eastern Refugees running commentaries again!

Bloody Refugees!!!

No point arguing with these Morons.

Analysis is badly flawed and has ethnic (Igbo v Yoruba ) connotations.

Kanwulia: So wetin South dey contribute?
419
Ashawo for Italy
Drug trafficking
Baby selling
Ritual murders
. . . . And forged degrees.
Say oil dey for South, nor mean CONTRIBUTION!
Una una contribute am or Na mother nature contribute am?
DOKPEMUMU DOPESI!!!!!

I stand by this statement so much! Enlightenment!!! and Perspective!!!

And I am a Yoruba to the core.

^^^^ emotional economics. shm

Emergency economists!

You can borrow to invest in infrastructure particularly in areas conducive to economic activities like Lagos. The infrastructure facilitates more activities and people and companies and businesses gravitate to those areas. The government then increases taxes, levies and the likes (generates more income) to service the loan (interest and principal). The businesses make sufficient enough profits and returns and are able to pay the taxes comfortably. And so the multiplier effects continues, property prices rockets, valuation rockets, everything goes up as more and more people and corporations are drawn to the area (including immigrant traders), the government is the able to widen the tax net to cover more activities, property taxes, shop levies, the government's income increases exponentially (ask Ambode the next governor of Lagos State)

Obviously if you are empty Aqua Ibom State (or any of the economically un-viable states) and financing infrastructure through borrowing, then your analysis may be correct.

In terms of Lagos, sorry your analysis is a bit of a nonsense.

Like me going to the UK and telling the British guy "I am here to develop your land"

BuddahMonk: shattap you omo ale
if you no buy from them you nogo wear cloth, watch TV, build house, (mud house) wear shoes, watch movies, drive cars, eat food,
hunger go finish you people now, you must buy from the igbos or you die hating

I don do everything Brov, I didnt have to go to An Igbo for anything. I bought a jeep from them a few years back but now I make sure the dealer is omoodua before i buy. But if the 3 Igbos remaining in my house fail to pay their rent for more than 1 month after the due date (as they have been doing despite being so called Ladipo spare part dealers, haba! Igbos get mouth)

Your achievement counts for nothing if you can do it in your fatherland. Period!
All those shameless old Igbo people in Lagos, big shame!

SAY WHAT YOU LIKE

YOUR PAPA LAND NO FIT SUSTAIN YOU. YOU ARE THE PARASITES!!! NOT THE ABOKIS

GIRLS HAVE TO DO WHAT THEY HAVE TO DO. THE WHOLE OF NIGERIAN FROM NORTH, SOUTH, WEST ARE FULL OF IGBO GIRLS, DOING WHAT?

NIGERIAN ASHAWOS COME FROM WHERE?

Sloan: You these Igbos and your long throat! You've failed massively in governing the smallest patch of land in Nigeria, an entire region smaller than some states. No other Nigerian aspires to govern any state in the SE, people who live there do so mostly because of FG work assignments. No normal non-native student will leave the best schools in the West, in the north and SS to go to SE. No Nigerian wants to stay longer in SE than he has to but ibos on the other hand want to keep their land to themselves and migrate to claim joint indigeneship in other parts of Nigeria why abusing the same people! Imagine ibos saying why do northerners always give their building contracts to ibos as though they are too stupid to be building contractors on their own? Mister forget it! With millions of native indigenes in almost every state, there is absolutely no reason, nothing an ibo man can bring in governance that can not be found in the native population. Yet, Iboland is the most failed region outside the places where terrorism has a foothold in Nigeria.

Crazy Igbos talk about Lagos as if Lagos means anything.

Lagos is just one of a few administrative outpost created to administer Nigeria and bring development to the people. It is an important and integral part of Yoruba Land and will forever remain so.

Foolish people having stupid ideas

redsun: Soon people like you will be left behind on the scorching earth while the real people of the new age will endlessly float across the oceans and skies in their gigantic enclaves that never stops.
Do ever imagine what the earth might be in a thousand years time?And in your time you can't make the best of it,stuck up in past past and thinking in reverse.

Give me just one example (Country or city state, America is a stolen land so not a good example) where the above has happened. We are all tribal and we have our own portion of the Earth, and wars have been fought and will continue to be fought to defend it.

Even the Romans eventually went back home.

My brother, democracy have limits. You just haven't seen it.

What is democracy in getting enough of your people to migrate en mass to somebody else's land in the hope to usurp their governance and tradition by voting yourselves in into power or threatening to 'take over' based on some bogus democracy.

Foolish thinking.

This sort of thing takes time. How can I a Yorubaman expect to appear in Kaduna and hope to rule them because we share the same Nigerian nationality?

I would expect that to be possible in 300 years time, long after the tribal lines have faded. America is not a good example because the country's original people have been wiped out.

London (Paris) (Amsterdam) are full of immigrants but that has had very little impact on the governance and representation. As cosmopolitan as London is, it is represented almost in full by indigenous English people (and rightly so)

Take over our land without consequences, I doubt it.

I am an EGBA man. My parents warned me not to an IJEBU lady.

I did just that, met and married an Ijebu lady. Told my dad to get lost.

Over the 10 year I saw everything my parents warned me against. I broke the marriage and moved on.

I am married to an OSUN woman now. Though she has this clingy mama that I would rather throw into the lagoon.

But sha everybody is happy now. If it doesn't work out, you have other options till you die.

idumuose: I laugh at some ignorant people who are waiting to claim the companies of Atiku and Dangote and the houses of ndigbo in the south west and north should Nigeria breakup.
I have bad news for you - quit waiting and go and get something doing.‎​​ !

Igbo Kwenu

How ma-kate?

He who owns the land, I am afraid, owns everything standing on it. If you establish your businesses out of your natural territory you run the risk of these kind of losses. Ask anyone who invests in the west (ever heard of sanctions, asset freeze etc)

Cause kata kata for SW and see everything go up in smoke.

kernel504: If you can't beat a people, you simply rant. China is feared and respected because of their enterpricing achievements... So the Igbos.

Fear China? Of course if you are an industrial state and have to compete toe to toe with China's low cost industrial output.

Yorubas are Igbo trader's customers, imagine if the Yorubas close ranks and decide not to buy one jot from a single Igbo man in Yoruba land, what do you think will happen?

Customers dont fear traders.

cjrane: [size=15pt]The scientific definition of a Parasite![/size]
A parasite is an organism that lives in another organism, called the host, and often harms it. It is dependent on its host for survival - it has to be in the host to live, grow and multiply. A parasite cannot live independently. Although a parasite rarely kills the host, in some cases it can happen. The parasite benefits at the expense of the host - the parasite uses the host to gain strength, and the host loses some strength as a result.
- Center for Disease Control and Prevention, 2014.
Even though the statement above was made in reference to parasitic diseases and organisms, it sounded as though it was referring to northern Nigeria's relationship with the rest of the country. So how else can northern Nigeria truly define their relationship with the rest of the country than just sucking others dry under the false pretenses that we are all one?

The trouble is the same is now playing out in Yoruba Land.

Because of our mumu kindness and carelessness, not-to-be-seen-to-be-mean,carefree and inadvertent accommodation and unwarranted sharing attitude, we have brought in our adversary into our mainland.

Like it or not the Yorubas now have to prepare for war (and it wont be a fight with the Jihadists up north - Shame on our parent's generation)

Where planes land? abi where ships berth.

Ilu Ibo?

Douglasdale: The Igbos do not produce anything abi....
But they are busy buying up your lands
They are busy feeding your people and paying taxes to your govt.
They are building industries and conglomerates.
They are gurus in their fields and captains of industries.
They are not PARASITIES and they don't wait for handouts from govt before developing their societies.
They single handedly fought you lots including your foreign masters.
Guy try get sense small. And stop disgracing your people.

Keep deceiving yourself. The simple question was what do the Igbos produce?

Why are the Igbos all over the place and their land cannot sustain them? Why is everyone running away from Igbo land.

Everywhere you go the love peddlers are Igbos, that is the first sign of deprevation and societal collapse - when vast number of women from a particular location are engaed in body selling.

Igbo dreamers everywhere. PM for UK? ~Its time to give whatever you are smoking a rest!

The seaport and airport dey London .....eh ...eh Lagos

Akwa Ibom na Igbo state? Run commot!

Bloodshed is in the horizon.

The sooner this matter is settled the better. At least Yorubas will come to their senses (idiots selling land and welcoming all manner of people, not being aggressive and assertive enough) and perhaps shed that ingraned and cultural cowardise that has taken us over.

War would do for us the wonders it did to the Igbos. Civil war turned them into this aggressive, hardworking, money making, economic-smart and assetive people that they have become.

So no shaking.

What about those who cant stay in their territory? Whos land cannot provide for them and are unwanted refugees forming Nigerian more than other tribes.

They are far more parasitic and the Parasites in Nigeria has been revealed to be the IGBOs.

They actually dont produce anything, buying and selling of substandard imports is not development or high commerce.

Oil is not Igbo in origin. The Igbos dont produce anything - please educate me if i am wrong and I have not insulted anybody.

I am a Yoruba Guy to the core and a strong E-Warrior at that.

But this broke my heart to say the least. Flooded international airport (Stella Odua! Onyosi!!! Ara ra pogi)

We should all enjoy this.

This trend is good to show up our BAD, Hopeless leadership and hopeless followership.

;DTHESE E-WARS ARE FANTASTIC!!!!!

BLESSING IN DISGUISE

SEUN!!!!! SEUN!!!! dont ever think of stopping these ewars o!
