I don't have a dog in this fight but saying Edo women aren't beautiful is like saying,sun doesn't shine in the Sahara Desert.
Also, a lot is happening in Kwara we tend to conflate lowcost of living with lack of economic activities. Kwara is a border state and a lot of business activities are taking place, the conservative nature of the people makes it look nothing is happening on the economic front.

[color=royalblue]I don't know about now, but as at 3 - 4 years ago, there was serious lack of economic activities

Kwara was the first place I saw a shopping mall in the heart of the capital and close to the airport, having empty stores looking for tenants. The next state I saw that was Ebonyi.

As at that time, I entered bike of 150, and there were distances of 50 naira with cabs.

I bought BBQ fish for 2k, and it's not like people were rushing it sef. E just dey there.

I don't want to talk about the struggle of finding a vehicle from SS and SE states to Ilorin.

Maybe there is A LOT going on now oh. But as at then, nothing worthy of interest (in my opinion)[/color]

BlueRayDick:
The data is actually referring to IGR generated by local governments and not IGR generated by state.

What that means in essence is that LGs in Ebonyi makes more internally generated revenue than local governments in Rivers state. It can happen if the LG chairmen in Rivers state don't declare accurately the IGR they make while Ebonyin LGs do theirs diligently.

Another thing is most of the oil facilities in Rivers state may not be obliged to pay any form of rates and fees to Local governments.

[color=royalblue]I understand the data

And I am simply asking what LGs in Ebonyi raised 6 billion?

Rivers does not have only Oil producing facilities as it's business. PH is far bubbling than the whole Ebonyi put together.

6 billion indeed[/color]

Amigoss:
Kwara in top 3 makes this list laughable,shey Na the women are mostly housewives and the male adult population mostly Alfas dey pay all this tax

[color=royalblue]Unless there's another interpretation to that list, I struggle to understand how they manufactured those figures.

I no even know say Kwara dey there..

You want start your own abi

Every state has good news and a lot of bad news

So going to pick on another state, is just giving the person the license to finish you off[/color]

BlueRayDick:
LGs like Eti Osa, Ojo(where Alaba international dey), Lagos Island, Alimosho, Ikeja (where Industrial estates dey), mushin (where Ilupeju industrial estate dey) and Oshodi Isolo (where Ladipo market) can even account for the N10 billion sef in matters of days nit months ..... 😁

I don't doubt Ebonyi raising that 6 billion rather I believe Lagos state understated that 10 billion figure. I think most states actually do Sha

[color=royalblue]Maybe Lagos is understated, but you see that Ebonyi??

Ebonyi pass Rivers?

These politicians will not kill us with lamba

Fun fact: First bank has about 5 branches in Ebonyi state. Not a yardstick though, but I wonder the kind of commercial activities they did, that raised 6 billion[/color]

[color=royalblue]Lagos state with LGs that have businesses to tax raised 10 billion

And Ebonyi state raised 6 billion?

Maybe na their diaspora citizens pay am[/color]

I love Edo state sha [/color]

BlueRayDick:
They should've sentenced their own citizens too to life imprisonment for treason instead of executing them.

At least let them show they value their fellow black man's life they way they value a whiteman's

[color=royalblue] Doesn't work that way

Most likely the US Government must have initiated diplomatic measures to ensure they are not killed.

Considering what they might be gaining from the USA, it would be hard to insist otherwise [/color]

Theflint1:
I don't know about this sha, but some families leave theirs for some very long time before collecting, maybe na based on dawan e dey use talk say e pay gratuities after 17 years. It doesn't help too that the processing can take quite some time.

[color=royalblue]Well, let's watch.

Next governor go pay from 18 years back [/color]

raumdeuter:
I guess they pay some and not others, for the next admin to carry

If Akpakomiza is right that means say na since Oshiomole regime dem dey owe them

[color=royalblue] There's even another link of Obaseki paying in his first tenure.

E be like say these people dey formulate list, use am wipe money comot.

God go help us for all these people hands [/color]

raumdeuter:

Blueraydick, Izzou I salute Una 😆

raumdeuter:
So the allegations against Sowore that he protested against GEJ, that means he was not physically on ground to protest Jonathan

[color=royalblue] Rest nau [/color]

BlueRayDick:


U get time sha.

Person wey be say just two weeks ago here he narrated the Ladoja impeachment saga that happened 19 years ago scene by scene; suddenly he can't remember any of "Sowore's numerous protest againt OBJ ". And na same period o. Is our God not wonderful?

raumdeuter:
Tell you how? Because I am following Sowore to every protest?

[color=royalblue] That means you're trying to force us to accept what you have no idea of.

You have no idea if he protested
You cannot remember any part

But it is agenda if someone says the same.

Thou knowesth what thou doeth [/color]

raumdeuter:
You are the one claiming if I cant see the video then it doesn't exist

So Sowore protested IBB, protested Buhari, protested Yar Adua. protested Tinubu, protested Abacha, Protested Jonathan but will skip OBJ because?

[color=royalblue]Show us nau...

At least, tell us one from your memory.
[/color]

raumdeuter:
So it's barely protested now? Why will Sowore not protest Obasanjo whom every activist love to call a military stooge back then. OBJ was even the easiest target to protest against because of his military ways of ruling
Sowore is a recurring theme with every and any protest in Nigeria. Sowore lives for protests. Sowore was arrested at NUGA 98 even though he was no longer a student, If wives decide to protest husband's Sowore will join. If Cherubim are protesting against Celestial Sowore will join. Sowore even aligned with Nnamdi Kanu just to find a reason to protest. Someone like that will now see an OBJ govt with many reasons to protest and not join?
Maybe some people thought they just discovered the act of protests that people like Gani, Sowore have made their own life calling.

[color=royalblue] Nobody said Sowore was scared of OBJ

All Blueraydick said was that we didn't see him protest like this during that time. He is probably right.

If you say he's wrong, there should be at least 2 that we can find from 2003 to 2007.

You are the one trying to defend something that may truly not exist.[/color]

raumdeuter:
Sowore protesting where? Do you have picture and video of every protest Sowore has done in his life? As long as you don't have the video it never happened
This is what someone in that age range also and someone who dealt with him personally said about him but did it stop anyone from running their agenda

[color=royalblue]Where did Blueraydick say Sowore wasn't a modern version of Gani?

The man barely protested against the government then, and there's nothing wrong with that.

Even you, that can remember every throw in and corner kick in USA 94, is suddenly struggling to remember one of the numerous protests that happened then

I am waiting for you to show us the reviews from his Ex girlfriend from uni days [/color]

raumdeuter:
We all know what we are doing. Anything not on video does not exist even if it happened before video were common

[color=royalblue]We have people here in their forties and fifties and I am sure they don't remember Sowore protesting there.

Maybe he's wrong about APC sponsoring him. But it's clear that this guy wasn't protesting then.

You gan gan know what you're doing.

Na you bring link say e wan protest, but you cannot find another one where he protested.
[/color]

BlueRayDick:
.

[color=royalblue]Never seen Raumdeuter fold so fast[/color]

raumdeuter:
How many videos can we get of things that happened 20yrs ago

This is the same Sowore writing that Obasanjo must go

[color=royalblue]No protest?[/color]

BlueRayDick:
The only problem here is that the guy appears to be indifferent about the lady’s denomination and would’ve gone ahead with the marriage but for his mum’s insistence . The fact that he stayed in the relationship that long showed he doesn’t really mind.

Dancing the his mother's tune eventually just shows He lacks conviction and will always defer to others for when making decisions....

Even if that guy marries another woman from his denomination ( which he will eventually), he will still have issues in his marriage which will be centered around his mother and wife trying to exert their respective influences on him.

This matter wey I see so goes beyond religious orientation.

[color=royalblue]Since he has no courage to make his own decisions, he should go and marry in his Church

At least, a marriage will happen (Mummy will approve). With someone else, it won't

After the marriage, him and the unlucky wife should manage themselves [/color]

[color=royalblue]If you are not open to accepting the belief of others, marry from your own.

You are COCIN, and you want your wife to be a COCIN, then marry from there. Abi na only boys dem dey born for the church?

I only blame the lady for begging him back.

You dodged a bullet, and you dey beg for the trigger to be pulled again.[/color]

Dr Olumide Emmanuel. Collect 250-500k, provide breakfast, give seminars & materials. Your 500k don go like that.

[color=royalblue]I saw one where he said the registration fee gives the person a 90 day access to him for personal mentorship..

I come confuse.....

The funniest part is that people who are really rich like that, do not have the time to start organizing seminars to teach people.

Everytime, e dey get seminar and retreats [/color]

raumdeuter:
Have you ever seen a person who is rich and wants to teach you before?
Those scammers na your registration fee they need

Like I make so much money from selling otapiapia but bring a registration fee of 100K so I can tach you how to become a billionaire from Otapiapia sales (Ignore the fact that I am not a billionaire)

[color=royalblue]I tell you. Na dollars now dem dey charge, and they will tell you that Early birds get discounts

Now, na podcast all of them pack full. Ring light and microphone, and they drop reels of wisdom.

After the video, they tell you to join a Master class

[/color]

[color=royalblue]I don't know why I find it funny when I see people online organize workshops to make people Billionaires

There's this Nigerian pastor. Always having retreats on how to make people billionaires and all that. I never still see him name for any list.

Dangote and Adenuga never organize one single workshop to make us billionaires

But people wey never be billionaires, know all the strategies to make person billionaires [/color]
