I thought you are anti-apc.edo election will be a reenactment of the presidential poll.obasrki should have allowed wike camp produce the candidate or at least bring a popular politician not a novice.if only he performed,it would have been a different story..
His quarrel with the Benin traditional council is also killing his political capital

Leave them to day dreaming. Benin's don't joke with anything related to Oba. Obaseki has lost all the support and trust he had before his re election in 2020. Asue his candidate will lose woefully in Edo south. The legacy faction of pdp has more formidable and popular members who performed during their positions held before has representatives in national assembly and even state assembly round the state. Dan orbih played crucial role in Obaseki re election. The legacy arm of pdp worked against them last year and Pdp only win the re schedule house of representatives seat for igueben at of 9 seat. Apc won 6 and labour 2. In the Senate pdp didn't win anyone. Apc won 2 and labour 1. Pdp has been winning most of the national assembly seat in Edo state prior to last year. Philip shiabu has just also collapsed his structure and campaign buses for Senator Okpeboho and hon idahosa.

AllTheWayUp:

Mayaki, one of Oshiomole's right right hand man for over 20 years has also echoed what we have been saying.
We have told APC zombies on Nairaland that don't live in Edo state that Asue Ighodalo has already won the election, he has no rival in the upcoming Edo state Governorship election.
Even the picking of Osarodion Ogie by Edo state PDP was another masterstroke, that will deliver nothing less than 80% of the Edo South votes, APC deputy candidate Denco is not no match and paper weight to Osarodion Ogie when it comes to Edo South and Benin politics.
Are Ighodalo and Osarodion Ogie will win overwhelming in Edo South and Edo Central, and lose marginally in Edo North to be declared and returned elected as Governor and Deputy Governor...Quote me anywhere

Dey play, they will not score half of the vote in Benin kingdom, with the way Obaseki has be fighting the palace. John mayaki is from my town, he had a ghastly accident early this year and the reason for this outburst according to him was that leaders in Apc Edo state chapter didn't check on him. He don't really command vote in my town but will probably win his unit but can't win our ward. He his definitely a sound man and a journalist of repute. He has even be quite politically since 2020 and was not even active in local politics in our LGA in last year election. Senator Urhoghide, hon Iyama ogbiede and hon idahosa can't be beaten to votes in Edo south by Ogie. They will pull more votes. If you are from Edo state, you will know this heavyweight politician are currently the most popular. Ogie highest position he has attained is the SSG he is now. Ovia is settled for denco already, Iyama has street credibility in oredo and Obaseki begged him to be running mate to Asue but declined severally. He is wike man and the legacy faction. He remains the best rep member who has represented oredo federal constituency in terms of performance till date. Ask about that. Senator Urhoghide is a force and has DG of Apc campaign council and the immediate senator of Edo south, he command huge followers. When he did his homecoming party at Uyi grand event hall in Benin, many people were testifying to his goodwill. Labour party will also help reduces pdp natural votes just has it happen in the presidential elections.

Lontorlooka:
The problem started when they opened their doors for franchise players.

People who wanted to start restaurant business but don’t want to go through the effort of creating a new brand and growing customers .
Instead ; they apply, pay some recurring fees , be brand materials , recipes , menu and business starts with customers flooding in .


While this looked like massive chain growth , they couldn’t enforce the meals have the same quality and taste accords board . Franchise members started adding their stuff . Why not ! It’s their business .


Then once a customer have a bad experience at an outlet , they start looking for alternatives sub consciously and they’ll feel all outlets are bad .

God bless you jare, exactly because they lost the uniqueness of their products. Same thing will soon happen to mat ice. In Benin, anywhere you go, you will see them. GT plaza don't buy into franchise stuff and he is gaining ground everyday. He will soon push mat ice out of business.

Nonny95:
Don't mind the clowns.

A governor is sharing cups of rice oo

Show the picture of sharing rice with even with cup and get 50k. The problem with most of you from that region, don't accept truth. You should be ashamed that a federal lawmaker in your zone in 2024 gave out 10 sticks of cassava stem each to his constituents. A labour party for that matter, this are the people who want to change Nigeria. Big clowns

Justnation:
He gave them improved seedlings which have the potential to produce massively,

He is also encouraging them to take to farming


since. APC has launched operations ::-

massive hunger and starvation,

no jobs anymore

Famine everywhere .

Don't forget Malaysia collected Palm seedlings from Nigeria some years back, today they are the largest exporter of palm oil.


PETER OBI says Yes to production economy, than consumption economy

Which this kind of of obselete way. Hypocrisy is really smelling on you. This is the kind of consumption to production the Agulu yes daddy talk about. We really dodged a bullet.

seunmsg:
I won’t even blame the lawmaker. No political office holder in the SE who saw how a terrible governor like Peter Obi was transformed overnight to a messiah and best thing since slice bread will ever want to perform.

To be relevant politically in that region, just go about abusing the president, support Ipob, identify as an Obidient, talk more about Lagos and the SW than your own region and keep shouting Igbo marginalization. Thereafter, keep all the money meant for your constituents and give them crumbs like this. In the next ten years, they will say you performed more than Gbajabiamila, Akpabio and Tajudeen Abass put together.

You are right. Just imagine and one fool is saying that 10 sticks will turn to 100,000 casava.

BlackhatMentor:
10 cassava stems can produce 100,000 Cassava later

Shut up, hypocrite. If this happens in other zone now expecially in south west, you and others will shout poverty region. Abia is just too backward. No wonder they were celebrating water fountain.

mrvitalis:
Name the food we depend on from North
Note middle belt is not North

Goats, cows, beans are most important from Niger Republic reason they are not expensive since they close their border

Yam is from moble belt and South East

Vegetables are from midle belt or South East

Melon is from middle belt

Rice is imported or locally farmed

Garri locally farmed mostly few imports from middle belt

Basically North supply to South East is mostly onions and tomatoes

So middle belt are not part of north again. North Central states like benue, plateau. Go back to secondary, you don't know what you are saying

Ezeama400:
Why not blame Peter Obi?

When it is needed, he will do the needful to call him out for lies he say.

BlackhatMentor:
We are Igbo and we are hardworking!

I laugh in Swahili when Northerners say we depend on them for food.

Oga we have been existing before cars and Nigeria was created... What makes you think we won't find alternative source for cow meat and Onion or beans?

Igbos have enough landmass and fertile land to grow their own food.

That some people in southern state cultivate some crop which is not sufficient for total consumption, still mean we all still depend on northerners for foodstuff to buy and feed with. You are just ranting. You people don't farm one quarter of food you consumed. what is the alternative to beans and onion

EmeldaSmiths:
Let them do it like this during Christmas and Easter... I don't want to hear anything

Senator okpebholo is widely accepted across party lines

They don't know the man. In the past he supported politicians across all board. He is very rich and yet humble. A great philanthropist. Someone that gave out cars and motorcycle to indigenes. the election will be very easy for him to win. Labour party is serious cancelling pdp in Edo south presently. They will act as spoiler to Pdp. With senator Urhoghide and hon Iyama both performer as national assembly members before. They are just to popular in Edo south. Hon Iyama was begged by Wike and Orbih to allow Obaseki get the pdp ticket for 2020 governorship election. Even in my LGA, Iyama has a formidable political structure there and across the 18 LGA. Oba of Benin factor his also there too. He can't support Obaseki's candidate

[quote author=SeyifunmiOla post=130466497]The people of Ada in Boripe LGA, Osun State, confronted the House of Reps Member representing their constituency for allegedly failing to fulfil campaign promises.

The House of Representatives representing the Ifelodun/Boripe/Odo-Otin federal constituency of Osun State, Hon. Olusoji Adetunji, visited Ada ahead of the Sallah festivities.

A video shared online shows the moment the Reps member was ambushed by his constituents following his arrival.

According to reports, the people of Ada felt insulted by the Sallah handouts he came to give them while riding in his expensive car.

Locals can be seen screaming and calling for the reps member to be beaten as they surrounded him.

One woman is seen cautioning the man filming against recording the incident.

However, the person behind the camera insisted on filming as he insulted the reps member and other politicians, calling them “mad people”.

to them, let it go round the country cos this people and governors are disappointing. Most of them are nothing to write home about. We have one idiot too representing us, even when many people voted against him, he was still declared the winner. A full ward was cancelled because of flimsy excuse. Unfortunately the same labour house of rep candidate we all go out for, has now join Obaseki and rewarded the office of deputy governor. He condemned Obaseki government just last here and today he is romancing with him. That is a youth too. No single project to his name to the LGA. They just use him to checkmate labour party and they forget they will even both lose the election. Olumide Akpata is not a bad candidate at all but he can't be governor when his zone is about to finish. Obaseki taught his new deputy is popular in our LGA not knowing the factor that made him to get those vote across age, was Apc fielding a third termer with nothing to show and the legacy group of pdp worked against Obaseki candidate by also supporting the labour party. Other election was won by Apc.presidency and Senate.

viqSmallz:
You see all those SS state governors, they are disappointing. With the access to oil funds they get, they should be able to pay more than that.

Very big disgrace to them, tomorrow many of our indigene will say the northerners are how problem. If you calculate what state like delta, bayelsea, rivers and akwa ibom has received from the center since 1999, then you will spit for them. Imagine Abia can not pay too and the state couldn't pay the minimum wage of 30k Abia is also a oil producing state just like Edo and they produce higher. Since may last year, what stop Otti from paying the minimum wage and the 35k extra the FG gave them from subsidy removal benefit and some people keep telling us here that he his the best governor so far. What his best in him. How many road has he constructed in the last one year and compare him to Seyi makinde of oyo state. It is time we call a spade a spade. You people should stop supporting wrong doings. It obvious many governors won't pay the new proposed minimum wage. I am not exonerating the FG but the greatest problems lie on the governors .many of them are underperformers and still steal money meant for LGA. I just pray the FG win the battle with them at the supreme court in respect of autonomy to LGA.

NaMe4:
How many ministers are from the South South?

This one is supposed to be a leader in the South South abi?

He is a useless leader, someone who could not advice Jonathan to develop south south when we have the golden chance. He and other were busy making money. If you go to his town Kiagbodo in delta, you will be ashamed of him. He was building private university named Edwin Clark university with support from Jonathan. When Buhari took over, he could not complete it, because no money again. I know his village personally. He is among the problems south south has faced over the years. He could not advice Jonathan to fix or build new refineries, delta steel company and warri, calabar and port Harcourt port were non functional still he couldn't advice Jonathan to resuscitate them. The northerners are never the problem of southerners. We just have greedy people among us. from politicians to so called leaders, some traditional leaders and even some religious leaders are the bane of our under development. Port Harcourt international airport was rated the worst in africa under Jonathan regime and this old cargo and his like could not order Jonathan to upgrade it and Jonathan left it and be upgrading Muritala and Azikiwe airports that was okay.

ApcBacteriafonj:
Dangote dodge answering the question, business man

Do you understand English at all. A smart thinker I should have decode that. If diesel that fell from 1700 to 1200, then you should know petrol will also fall from the current price. Must he mentioned the amount. Petrol from his refinery will sell between 300 to 400 at a start and comes down lower in due course. You people said the refinery will never work but has God have it, you guys are been shamed now. If it reduces to even 400, it will have positive effects on the economy, because petrol is tied to many things unlike diesel. Most transport vehicles run on petrol, small scale businesses also run on petrol.

Nice2023:
Don't mind them...just like I told my friend yesterday from edo state,don't ever vote APC candidate especially now that they have their man on the sit at aso rock,I told him they will regret it if the APC should ever win Edo.

Shut up, the Apc candidate has been a philanthropist for many years before joining politics, he personally constructed road, schools, health centers, give scholarships and provide siennas to police and vigilantes. He give out 30 cars to his people then, mostly graduates without job. Asue Ighodalo who was chairman of sterling bank for years could not facilitated one branch of the bank in his senatorial district. Senator Okpeboho was an alternate government in Edo central about a decade now. We don't want Grammer speaking governor again but practical governor that can identify a problem and solve it. Senator Adams oshiomole remains the best governor in our state since 1999, he didn't speak big grammar to carry out thr red roof revolution in primary and secondary schools in all the local government areas. All the roads he constructed are still durable unlike the emperor who's own has started failing when he has not left the seat. Asue Ighodalo will be worse than Obaseki. His village Ewohimi has been in darkness for long now and can't fix it. As chairman of Edo state economic team, which impact did he made. We will vote for candidate that is passionate about the people, a man that know the state very well not someone who can't even speak his father language but can speak Yoruba his mother's own fluently. He is just like that labour candidate that contested for governor in Lagos. They are Omoale.

StreetFight:
Ben Akabueze that is going nko? Has he not been part of the system since Tinubu'd first term as Lagos then Tinubu appointed him as Commissioner for Budget? He had that position throughout Fashola'd two terms as made by Tinubu. Was it not the Same Tinubu that handed him over to Buhari to head Budget Office?

Don't mind them, their anger as usual is because an Igbo man tenured ended and another tribe get the office. One thing they forgot is that, Tinubu made him who is he today. Has rightly said by you, he was commissioner of budget and planning from Tinubu to fashola tenure throughout. He also nominated him for Buhari. Ask him, which state in south east has given a commissioner to any other tribe, talk more of that sensitive position. Even if you live there for donkey of years, they will not give you. One thing you can't takeaway from Tinubu is that, he made a lot of men and that catapulted him to presidency. He is not a tribal bigot. He selected the very best. Who did Obi made over the years. Someone that was know for playing religious card as governor then.

kingzjay:
Mr. Yabuku is an accomplished economist and was Chief Economic Adviser to a former President from 2007 to 2010




Nothing special. Just the normal recycling.

Wait oh.. shebi they said youths are the leaders of tomorrow nii

since you people said the pdp era is the best, Now that Tinubu as given one of the chief economy adviser to one of the president of pdp, I don't expect you people to start wailing. Abi is it because an Igbo man tenure just ended and replace by another tribe. Ben Akabueze has been with president Tinubu since 1999 as then Lagos state commissioner of budget when he was governor. Tinubu know his capacity. He has done his best and let another person try and see if they could turnaround the economy. Tinubu nominated him to Buhari for the office. He has been one of the president Lagos boys.

Aisosa25:
Edo people should elect only a leader that can sustain Obaseki’s vision, legacy, says Jonathan

... as Edo hosts, honours Yayi, Kenyatta, Sambo, Mumba others at State Banquet

Nigeria’s former President, Dr. Goodluck Ebele Jonathan, has urged Edo people to elect only leaders that can sustain the vision and legacy of Governor Godwin Obaseki, noting that the governor’s impact on the state’s education and public service sectors is highly commendable and worthy of emulation.

The former president said this during a State Banquet organized in honour of visiting African leaders and other dignitaries where individuals and organisations, who contributed to reforming the State’s public education sector were honoured and awarded.

It was a night for recognition as the First Lady of Edo State, Dr. Betsy Obaseki, presented awards to visiting guests, including Nigeria's Minister of Education, Mamman Tahir; former Vice President, Namadi Sambo; former President of Benin Republic, Boni Yayi; former President of Kenya, Uhuru Kenyatta, former Vice President of Zambia, Dr. Nevers-Sekwila Mumba; Deputy Governors of Bauchi and Bayelsa States, and other dignitaries from across Africa.

Some other award recipients include the Goodluck Jonathan Foundation, Rosula Foundation, and MTN Nigeria, among others.

Jonathan hailed Obaseki for his drive for inclusive education policies and for recognizing groups and individuals who have invested in education in the State.

He said: “I know about Obaseki and governors within the Niger Delta. I have an idea about what they are doing. I kept quiet, but you know that when somebody has a vision, people may not be too happy in some areas. It is very difficult to satisfy the human population but one key thing is that Obaseki has a vision for Edo people.

“I sincerely thank him for that vision. I hope whoever will take over from him will continue with that vision. He has taken education to a level where if it continues, it will help. Look at what he has done today; he has given recognition to deserving people and organizations that play key roles in the education of our children.”

According to him, “We thank the Governor for his vision for automatic employment to First Class graduates of Edo extraction. It’s only a man that means well for his people that can do this. It is similar to what I did when myself and Sambo were in Office. We came up with the Presidential Scholarship of Innovation and Development. That was a special program we designed; it had nothing to do with politics.”

On his part, Governor Obaseki said the gathering was organized to appreciate stakeholders for their interest in boosting education in the state, noting, “We want to render our gratitude to each and every one of you who has contributed to where we are today in Edo State. One area that the world has come to recognise Edo in recent times is in the strides we have made in education. Globally, Edo State is recognized as an accelerator in terms of its education reforms, along with about fifteen other countries in the world. I believe that Edo is the number one or two of the sub-nationals in that ranking of nations.

“We attribute the success to the support that we received from almost everybody here tonight. When we embarked on a journey to reform our educational system in Edo, we had no choice. But we also did not realize that the success will be this resounding - that the entire world will recognize what we have done or that our children will be learning at the rate they are doing today.”

Which legacy did Obaseki has. Legacy of substandard roads.

senatordave1:
I am aware but it is in your place to publish it na....he came back after enough Ghana must go and kneeling down plus threats occurred.

Hon Adjoto is in APC campaign list

Hon Adjoto can't be bully by even the governor. His from my LGA. Some pdp leaders and supporters are already decamping. He stood by the governor against oshiomole and later shaibu but got betrayed by the traitor. I am not surprised about Obaseki because he run in their blood. His grandfather betrayed the former oba. Hon Adjoto out former state speaker is a formidable politician in my area. All of them will crumble Asue chance to be governor.

senatordave1:
Did pdp win? Did they even take 2nd? Did they win any senate seat

Don't bother about yourself with him, first time in history of pdp not winning any national assembly seat in Edo south and won only one rescheduled house of rep out of 8. Obaseki has destroyed pdp and the legacy faction, led by Dan orbih are already working for Apc. Philip shiabu has just donated 50 sienna and his former campaign office to Apc in Benin. Everyday notable pdp leaders are decamping to Apc. His this guy even from Edo state or the regular bitter member that have buried their placenta with Pdp.

Honestey:
I listened to what he said, yes he may be right but the question he was asked is about minimum wage he just used that to let audience understand that the revenue isn't that much but he was clever in his whole response. His point is the same as those of other governors, the state can't afford much minimum wage. However, after leaving office, you will hear EFCC chasing some of them for billions of naira e.g the disappeared Yahayah Bello

You nailed it. Governors are the major problems of the country. Just imagine how much EFFC is accusing Yaya bello of stealing. Most of them have totally killed LGA. This government has taken them to supreme court about autonomy to the LGA. I pray let them win. In last year, Edo state collected 55b on behalf of the 18 LGA from the FAAC account and there is no way my LGA would not have gotten up to 2b for just last year but when I traveled to my town, which is the headquarter our LGA, there was nothing to write home about. No single road project, school, health care renovation or reconstruction took place. I also ask if other town and villages but still nothing he did there. Imagine last year, Obaseki told us, he has spent 1b in a month for the free bus ride, within some places in Benin. The busses are not up to 20. That was part of the 5b Tinubu releases to state governors from the money realize from subsidy removal.

Bendeco2020:
This Simon too strong for Nigeria to arrest

You can call him a terrorist, but the man get level

One man squad

If not that Nnamdi Kanu too dey waka and he too dey expose his secrete/movement, Nigeria woudn't be able to arrest him from Europe. They have to wait till he entered Kenya

Forget, Nigeria don't have level as some people hype it

Can they threaten any European nation to hand over someone to them?.. When the country don already cast itself with so many lapses

una dunn dey boast now, when dey finally extradite am to Nigeria, I hope you people will not start begging the government for release like kanu case. Fear government, before they start taking, just know he his almost in their hand. When Buhari called kanu a dot in a circle, many of you were laughing but before you know, he was arrested. Ekpa will soon be a customer of DSS.

Yesterday Arise tv show all the hero of democracy and he was not mentioned. That show is not an hero of democracy att all. He chicken out at the point of announcement, probably because of fear of been killed by IBB.

That's the life of an average Yoruba man,if you are non yoruba and you still attend winners and redeem Church then you be mumu

Rather say any igbo who still go to the churches are fool just like you as seen above. Religious bigot. Dunamis man was even worse during campaign. He openly campaigned for Obi and insult Tinubu. Yorubas are still going to the church. I am not a Yoruba but will always pick them above you igbos because most of you are unreasonable. If not for God, obi would have set the country on fire. Go and mark it down, God will not wear obi crown of presidency as long as, Nigeria exist, maybe in Biafra. Obi was well know to be religious intolerant as governor. He was always supporting catholic against other pentecostal churches, because he perceived them has having Yoruba as founder or head. We all saw how he paint Ngige as having a Yoruba group and put pictures of awolowo, Tinubu and others in posters of Ngige and its own picture with, Ojukwu and Azikiwe. He will be shamed again, and more tears to him.

paramakina202:
The car market is big enough for everyone, why are you crying for INNOSON?
The new Dangote car company will create more employment for Nigerians.

don't mind him, BUA cement is in a heavy competition with dangote and he is also building a refinery in akwa ibom. Do you see dangote screaming and crying. In okpella close to my place, two of them have their factory. How many igbos even patronize inosson. You people don't love yourself. Dangote sino truck has many northerners patronizing them. Go to major markets in Nigeria and see foodstuff and livestock that leave the north to south, you will understand what am saying. Charity begins at home. One of my igbo friend used to condem other tribe for not patronizing inosson because is igbo. To my surprise, when he want to buy his car, he bought a Benz and I reminded him and he just say my brother make innoson car dey one lane. I give kudos to innoson for his breakthrough like other assembly car plant we also have too. If he his not getting high patronage, I think his people are not good ambassador to him. Imagine that my friend have bought inosson car then in my our area in Benin, some person after sometime may buy, because they will want to study the durability, efficiency of the car they see. I noticed in Nigeria for many years now, the northerners patronizes business interest of their own firstly before others and that is the way. In Nnewi I can bodly say 70 percent of car owners there don't use inosson vehicles. Note I am not saying his product are bad. I entered his coaster bus in asaba around 2014 and I was marvelled and I will rate it over the comrade buses in my state, Edo state that was produced by deawoo in Brazil. Imagine one of the igbo transporter in Benin uses one before, don't you think the state government may even consider it first. To me, inosson has done well, let his people be his ambassador outside the zone and patronizes him there too.

XerXers:
Auto business cannot be government regulated like businesses that depend on natural resources such as cement and refinery. Dangote failed in tomatoes and was thoroughly beaten by Erisco, he has failed in this truck assembly before and was beaten by GU Okeke. The new expanded innoson truck assembly plant is almost complete in Nnewi. This a business that can't have government backing

who is erisco, is he not the one that has been crying about observation a girl made. His product is not the best in the sector in Nigeria. Gino and others are far better. In Ajah here, GU Okeke has one of the worst motor park. We have God is good, Iyare, peace mass, Agofure and others are far better. How can you compare ant with elephant. The fear is that any business Dangote lay his hand on is very massive and has a nationwide spread. He left the tomato business because he didn't get the desire quality he want that will be better than Gino who is the best not erisco which has low quality.can you compare Gino with erisco. Did Honeywell group own by a Yoruba complain about dangote spaghetti. He simply did his homework and today he still has the best and the most sort spaghetti in the country. You people always fear competition. That is why you always cry when people are doing same thing, while you will not see other tribe wailing. Can you compare the shackman truck assemble by Okeke and sino truck by dangote that is everywhere in the country.

I salute him, his a goal getter, most billionaires in Nigeria benefited from government, either federal or state, while others from their politicians friends who they front for. Dangote has used us own for the benefit of African, by investing heavily in the continent. He is the biggest employee after Nigeria government. He said is next point is the steel sector and nobody is actually developing that now, but when he starts and result start showing, you will see many gullible Nigerians saying he monopolies everywhere. One thing I like about him, is his boldness, tenacity to deer new challenges. When he succeed which is definitely, they will start crying but nobody has been bold to develop that very import sector. Oil licences were given to over 20 Nigerians in the past but they prefer to take crude from the country and refined outsides. Dangote is outstanding and God will continue to keep him alive in good health.

That's why I always enjoin Yorubas on here to focus on improving their lives than to wallow in argument with these people, the trolls. It's stupid to bask in stupidity with whom you're bigger than.

You would think there are no bigger amusement centres than Landmark in lagos, since it has the loudest noise. In fact, the emotive wife of Moghalu, who could leave Lagos all her life, had the temerity to be part of the calumny against the state. It took Dave Umahi trashing the situation before they calm down.

Their tactics–victimhood, gaslighting, intimidation, and the likes–are so easy to see, I wonder why people entertain them. which tribalism have you ever experienced in Lagos? If you don't indulge in your victim mentality, you won't be happy a day.

I wonder, is not the best. Let them Google and see more beautiful beaches. They hype to much. Just look at what Ashimolowo is doing there with 6b and some fools who don't even know landmark beach was supporting the owner, who was telling lies that his beach worth 300b when converted to naira. With what is been develp now, I don't think landmark beach worth 200m honestly. It just to whip tribal sentiment. they are still bitter the religious bigot warlord lost the presidential election last year. Yorubas have more investment in Lagos than any other tribe. Let them Google all the investment in all sector and check the owners. There is difference between a trader and a manufacturer.
