Look at top 50 companies in Lagos state, how many are your people controlling?
How many of ur billionaires has what it takes to control the likes of bill gates to Nigeria?
You are doing POS, selling spare parts and electronics doesn't make you control the market.
The real players are those who will sneeze and the economy will catch cold, not the people who sell smart phones in their shops

The don't really understand that they are intermediaries aka middlemen. Do they manufacture the electronics, phones, computers and the spare parts they sell. It's just buying and selling which anybody can easily do. Some Nigerian's are also doing the same, even thou igbos are majority. Those who control the economy of Lagos are either into manufacturing, telecommunications, banking, shipping, and hospitality businesses.

Thewrath:
This list does not validate control of commerce,where we’re all these people when Lagos was empty last December? Where there are no people,there is no commerce!

Propaganda does not control commerce,just like ogun state with its bogus and fake IGR could not pay Chinese companies debts.

You can't come ogun state with any state in the east, in terms of revenue generation. Also you can't also compare the numbers of multinational companies in ogun state to any state in the east.

He is the real major developer not those who buy and sell in a corner shop bragging of developing Lagos. The taxes dangote pays yearly to Lagos government is more than what traders in alaba, computer village and ladipo combined together pay to Lagos government. Go and fact check. For him to singlehandedly construct apapa road through tax refund by the federal government says a lot. Normally northerners and many south westerners don't make noise about their wealth.

LegendHero:
So what are you trying to drive at? Do you mean only Yoruba people go to public schools in Lagos or what?

Leave the nonentity. Lagos is a Yoruba land and Sanwo olu just pass a message.

So,
Medicine
Psychiatry
Paediatrics
Public health are not part of the medical sciences.?

You can never disappoint.

Allow him to keep deceiving himself. If you talk about medical science without medicine and pediatrics majorly, then the person head need to be examined. They are only know for chestbeating. They are not even up to ten in a list of over fifty. Yorubas lead why others follow.

Throwback:
Stop lieing. How and where did Prof Kenneth Dike become the first Professor in Nigeria? That his fellow Igbos ensured he was moved from behind to become First Nigerian Principal of UCI, does not mean he was the first Nigerian professor in the same UCI or anywhere in the world.

Professor Doctor Oladele Ajose was the first ever professor in Nigeria and West Africa that was of indigenous origin. He was a Professor of Public Health, a field of Medicine.

He studied Medicine and specialised in Public Health, eventually becoming the first African Professor in all of UI and all of West Africa, and the most senior ranking African on the School Council.

When it was time for a Nigerian to head UI that was then University College Ibadan, he was schemed out by President Azikiwe who was Visitor to the school and Akanu-Ibiam who was the chair of the school board, to favour Prof Kenneth Dike that was his junior and who himself feared to take the position, knowing the tribal schemes that resulted to his own appointment.

Professor Oladele Ajose would eventually take the Principal role at the inauguration of University of Ife.

You are right. Am from Edo state and my late dad was an alumni of university of Ibadan. Igbos brought nepotism in government. Their only cry was because they couldn't get to the top again. I don't know why history was stop has a course or subject in schools again. Yorubas are the beacon of education and the real trailblazers in education and that is made possible by the late sage Awolowo who introduced free education in western region then. When Osita chidoka was the head of FRSC, most of the fresh igbos graduate he employed started with level nine and some even ten against the norm of level eight. When Buhari became president, there were complains by some staff and he ordered the new FRSC boss to verify and those affected were demoted back to the original level. Anybody can verify cos it was in some major newspapers back then. That is why when the accuse other tribe of nepotism, I don't take them serious cause they started it. Isaac boro declared niger delta republic but Ironsi as then head of state went against him and his boys and many of his boys were killed, claiming one Nigeria and Ironsi was supported by Ojukwu but a year later after the revenged coup led by dimka that killed Ironsi, Ojukwu declared Biafra republic because he knew he has lost power at the center. He took arm against the government and government had no choice to fight him and his boys to standstill. If I have the privilege to meet with the president, I will beg him to bring back history so that upcoming generation will not longer be decieved by their elders. It will be one of my plead to the president.

Kalu Aja

Some people will just open their nonsense mouth to say rubbish. When we talk about economist, who knows Kalu Aja. The only obstacle that will make dangote not to have a very reduced price, will be the FG, reason is that, if NNPLC sell at a reduced price of crude to dangote to refine, dangote will in turn sell the refined crude to the NNPLC through their retail outlet at a reasonable cost and it knows left for the president to fix a price and sell to the populace. That is the reason dangote said he his waiting for the government and one illiterate was saying did he waited for the government to fix his cement price. He forgot that in cement production, you will first of all identify a place with high deposits of limestone which is the major raw material and purchased the land with the deposit of limestone from the owners in the community and set up your factory. The only way government comes in is through the standard organization of Nigeria (SON) the regulating bodies to certify the cement standard. Taxes will be collected by the government.

350k land dey For ibeju-lekki

They are communities around ibeju lekki but they may look unhabitable for now but genuine real estate investment in that corridor will fetch investor in future, which may not be up to five years very good profit.

Pristine664:
See this one making excuse for his non performing governor o 😂😂😂

btw, is USD Nigerian currency?

Ask him, if his state governor paid money in dollars for project execution by contractors in his state. So dumb and illiterate guy. When did we hear of government both federal and state paying dollars for road construction, rehabilitated of schools and hospitals. All federal and state government budget are always in naira and they paid contractors in naira too while they the contractors convert it to the currency of Thier choice with the equivalent. Too many brain dead guys on this platform.

donbrowser:
Same allocation that Lagos state government is planning to use for free child delivery, strategic food supply and subsidy?

Let him be bold to say who his governor is, so that we can access him. My mind is telling me, he is from the state whose governor since last year couldn't even pay the previous minimum wage of 30k and they have been hyping him as the best governor.

tensazangetsu20:
My governor has actually tried. No be governor remove subsidy and has control over the country's financial system.

Who his your governor. Your wish is for Tinubu to fail but you will be disappointed. We know election loss has been the reason some of you want things to continue to be bad. I don't know how people can be so petty just because of election. You people are something else and very evil and no wonder a beast in faraway Nigeria want to poison some tribe.

Loverofpeace:
This killings don too much

That is the result of many easterners supporting ipob madness from onset. Same way many Northerns especially in north east supported boko haram, just because of politics. Happenings in south east is self inflicted and only themselves can solve it, if they really want to. Ohaneze indigo didn't condemned the actions of ipob led by Nmandi kanu at the beginning. When kanu was using all of world against Buhari, Tinubu and others and calling Nigeria zoo, the group and most other igbos were so happy and even donating money to him. Some persons warned them, especially on this platform but turn deaf ears, thinking they are doing us. People like Obi have never condemned ipob negative activities over the years. Oby has turn deaf and dumb also.

Kaa4:
I feel you!!!

which dollar did Okonjo fix. Now Okonjo is Igbo but the first coup plotter that kill some Yorubas and mostly Northern military men and left out his tribesmen, Nzogwu, up till date, you people are still saying he is from delta north but forgot same Okonjo is also from delta north you people praised at any given time. Most of you are really an hypocrite.

Bobodee09:
Why are advising hoarders of dollars.

By October they will know howfar.

Can you all see how independent marketers are very quiet., trust me many fueling station will close up before December.

They are the greedy thieves. I like the fact that NNPLC will be the sole buyer of dangote PMS. It now up to president Tinubu because he will be the major determinant. A reduction in price of crude by government sold to dangote to refine and also sold back to NNPLC who has now said they owned more than 100k retail outlet, then government will fix the prices of PMS to be sold to Nigerian's.

Femi Ote$ @realFemiOtedola

Nice gestures from Otedola, you are a true patriot. I am not surprised cos most of your tribe don't jealous others what they can't do. You will also be remembered for your contribution to the dangote refinery becoming a reality. You were once a major player in the downstream sector of the oil and gas but sold it all and throw your support for Nigeria to have a refinery. The useless oil marketers where behind the protest by some niger deltans when Otedola and dangote bought some stake in warri and potharcourt refineries and that led to the then president Yaradua of blessed memories to cancelled it and up till now, some of our south south men, who boasted that they have the capacity to fix the refineries were nowhere to be found. Those nairalanders who have always wanted dangote refinery to fail, would soon buried their head in shame. Those of you because of election loss turn to be a catalyst of wishing evil for the country, same evil will befall you people to enternity.

Money ritual in a place where everyone is either millionaire or billionaire in local and international businesses this must be fake news 🤣🤣

Those people are something else. When you see people flaunting wealth with not knowing source, just know it's something like this, they engaged. Thou not particular to them alone but majorly with them.

Freshtruth:
Pride wan kill Oshimen wetin be 155k per week at 25yrs of age wey u no feel collect? Year 2014 cristiano Ronaldo a balloon do or winner salary was just 185k per week. Greed

What nonsense are you saying. Chelsea is just a foolish club, who wanted to take advantage of Oshimen not willing to go to Saudi and knowing fully aware, they are the only European club coming for him. Chelsea will really regret it cos by the time they will be battered this season, they will understand. Hope you saw today result in Stamford bridge.

ActiveFarms:
Dude, Conte hates Nigeria and Osihmen samke way Napoli hates him. Trust me, Conte's hatred for him is clandestine and hidden it takes only the highly discerning to know

The guy just prove to you that he brought the best of Victor Moses and you are still be emotional. Oshimen and Napoli had difference towards the end of last season and both were willing to part ways before Conte was brought. He will only work with players with commitments for him to succeed. Removed that from your mind, that he hates Nigeria players. That is a very big lie.

JASONjnr:
Why's this guy going low?

I want to believe, he's learning from CR7 for retiring into a less stressful club.

The moment the likes of cubana chief priest and others, start over hyping him as the world best, I know he will dwindled. Oshimen is good but not a player worth 500k pounds a weak. He allowed the hype to go into his head and see the end result. Why not him ask for 300k pounds a week from Chelsea and insert a clause of performance related increase after this season. Chelsea will have accepted cos the are desperate of a striker and Napoli has no option to reduced their asking price just as they are about to do now. A once cool headed guy with a lot of possibilities to become even the second and first Nigeria to win world best player. Am not a Chelsea fan, his coming would have increased his profile furthermore and give Halland a stiff competition. Halland goals for man city made him to come out second best. If Oshimen scored goal just like in Napoli and with his ever performances in national team, he would easily dislodge Halland whos country have not be able to qualify to Euro and world cup tournament since he debut for Norway. Truly pride goes before a fall.

Racoon:
Tinubu’s tribulation agbadorian economics is affecting everyone now. In-house and foreign macro-industries or establishments are just folding up with gusto because of a economy bastardized by an illiterate but certificate forging drug baron whose only claim is entitlement to a presidency he knows nothing about. Dangote and all these elites like Tony Emelelu Femi Otedola all saw this disaster and gave it support. Now the rich are also crying.

Do you have brain at all or it's the normal wailing that has been part of you people. Dangote is talking of 1960s experience and you are putting it on this government.

IfnobeGod20:
I am telling you what happened in 2020 and everyone conversant with the Edo State election of 2020 will also tell you same.
The internet were awash with APC campaigns then and you will think PDP would not get up to 200 votes but alas, the only ground broken by APC was Oshiomhole's local government.

Is a lie, pdp campaigns were always electrifying then. They had the most support just how Apc is currently having now.

Chinjo2:
I wonder what lies they will say there because Ologbo is one of the beneficiaries of Obaseki numerous projects.

Ologbo community don't enjoy power supply, even when the state government went into partnership with a foreign investors and built Osiomo power plant there, which power state government facilities and few rich people in Benin to the detriment of the host community. Many roads are bad. Their Enogie was my secondary school class mate. Don't say what you don't know. Some companies there have been operational before Obaseki became governor. I know there very well. The Enogie's eye is also our classmate and his mum hails from my town. We are friends cos he was raised in my town all through his primary to university.

MetaMatrix:
They exposed Malta importation because they thought Tinubu name would appear but it is Dantata that appears. Malta noise is now quiet, let's try Pepsi.

Truly, some bush babies were disappointed. Tinubu hang mostly his hope on Dangote refinery before subsidy removal. He will make sure he get it working perfectly cos that will bring so much succor to Nigerians and in turn get relief. They know cry of Oando a company of over twenty years of existence of buying Agip, just because Tinubu's nephew is the CEO. Seplat that was unknown entity few years ago, bought some bigger assets but crying victim mentality people, didn't see any fault in it. Hypocrisy smells so much on people

Shikini:
Tinubu's tribalism will further alienate
many from APC
.

Who knows him, which electoral value did he bring to Tinubu in last year election. Let him go and contest a position in his state and we will know his strength. He is just like Pat Utomi who make a lot of noise. They are always looking for appointment.

bcreporter:
Dr George Moghalu, a foundation member and former National Auditor of the All Progressives Congress, has formally resigned his membership of the ruling party.

Moghalu’s resignation was detailed in a letter addressed to his Uruagu Ward 1 chairman in Nnewi North Local Government Area of Anambra State, a copy of which was made available to PUNCH Online on Tuesday.

A copy of the letter, titled ‘Resignation of Membership of the APC’, was also forwarded to his state and local government chairmen.

Although the former Managing Director of the National Inland Waterways Authority did not indicate his next destination, he cited personal reasons for his decision.
The resignation follows months of speculation and repeated denials regarding Moghalu’s plans to leave the party.

He wrote, “I bring you the good wishes of my dear family and wish to formally notify you of my decision to resign my membership of the APC with effect from today, 26 August 2024.

“Please accept this as my personal decision. It is my utmost desire and expectation that we will continue to maintain the cordial relationship that we have built together over the years.

“I wish you and all the members of the party the very best. Please accept, as always, the assurance of my best regards.”

Chinjo2:
Obaseki has no interest in politics.
He only came to contribute to the development of Edo state which he has already done his part.
After his tenure, he will return back to his business.
He has one of the biggest businesses in africa known as AFRINVEST.
It's only people like Oshiomhole and Philip Shaibu who doesn't have a second address that should be worried.

That company will be probed cos that is part of the companies he used to defraud Edo state. He is building a gigantic building in Ikoyi now as the head office. Why did he not build it, before becoming governor. Sterling Bank will also be cross checked. He favoured the bank against the used to be other banks he inherited for tax collection. We will petition EFFC to look in his stewardship. He has started being so friendly for sometimes now, because the reality of gradually losing immunity is real.

ddippset:
This Philip dey find trouble sha.

He purposely looked and reached out for Obaseki to see weda Obaseki would decline his handshake in a Church.

If Obaseki had refused, APC for don run go tell Edo voters that Obaseki refused to shake his hind inside church during "sign of peace"

Bad guy, fear politicians. They are still friends. As soon as their personal interest gotten, they reach out to one another and make peace. Don't be surprised eight years time, same Obaseki will support Shaibu to be governor, if God still spare their life. Only foolish people die for them.

yarimo:
Obaseki is getting humble gradually 🤣 e go soon clear for obaseki eyes 🤣 edo no be Lagos

With less than three months to go, he want to start acting like a good man. He knows Shaibu has what it takes to use the presidency against him, after their tenure elaspses in November. Cunning man. Most of us in Edo north didn't support Shaibu for governor cos we believe on rotation principles and when Oshiomole initially supported hon idohosa as governor, Apc state chairman who is same tribe with Oshiomole joined Ize iyamu and others to protested against his choice to the president. Obaseki should have handled Shaibu's case different than the illegal impeachment that brought embarrassment to the state now. Anyway they are still friend cos don't be surprised, Obaseki might just decamped to Apc after his tenure and give silly excuses. Only foolish supporters killed themselves for politicians.
