Lero15: depending on d yet-to-be-paid State alawi & d last 40k. no saving money for kebbi state

RedBenson: A country made of many fools like you is the reason why Nigeria is still in this sorry state.

u wey no be fool , how has Nigeria fared with ur type?
Its either u are non-existent or u are a bigger fool.
Association of unemployed graduates, *smh#

I HAVE AN AUTHORITY PROBLEM , this i know

Sery777: AJIbanban,if you think u would win this war against christainity then you are on a long thing,go and ask about PAUL OF TARSUS because u r still a learner where he is.

i am Igbo but truth be told,the ohaneze whatever does not have any business with ogun state politics.why chase a rat when their own house is on fire.what have they done about the SE states.our governors are taking us backwards geometrically and in leaps.why don't you go and chase T A orji,Martin Elechi,Peter Obi away.i stand to be corrected but:

T A ORJI IS AND REMAINS THE WORST GOVERNOR NIGERIA EVER PRODUCED.(for the sake of critics,iam a concerned Abian Citizen and i want CHANGE)

yes, u av a point.
T.A orji wu onye nzuzu but then there is ohaneze in abia state that should be talking to him, not necessarily the ohaneze in ogun state.
The ohaneze d OP is talking abt resides in Ogun state, and whoever is the governor can make/mar economic conditions for enterpreneurs in d said state, irrespective of state of origin.

logica: Own what? Gorilla chest pounding as usual. So because your people bought a few property in Agege and Ajegunle we no go rest? How many houses do you own in the areas that matter?

lwkmd!
Na yorubas own houses in Lagos high brow before?
See this one o

logica: Ode. Your people are the ones that claim they are only in Lagos because it used to be a country capital. So once again, what are your people doing in Ogun?

we need more money.
Opportunities r wasting,yet u are not utilising them out of laziness, so we have to make use of them.
.
Oh yes, SW is crappy to behold. But wat shall we do kwanu? D drive for more money supercedes all those rants of yours.
What else, the part of SW with significant igbo pop is Lagos actually and not the others.

Kairoseki77: See how these chinkos hustle?

Respect am!

respect wetin?
how do u even know he is chinko?
because of the address?
Besides, are u seeing this kind of thing for d first tym?

It's ENUGU o[/quote]enugu wey i dey?
There has been no continous rain in enugu biko

Wendyslim: . Ohhhhh ur thinking is so shallow, do u think is everybody dat has enough money to start up a business ? And check out how many thousands of naira came out from ur pocket to get your wife into makeup school, we have lots of graduates out dir dat have struggled so hard to get capital for business but at the end of the day the business collapses because they were not trained for dat. Fingers are not equal cos if you can afford to pay for training what about dos that paid school fees through their nose. It's a good idea to learn a trade or skills if you have the money but as it is I am not jobless but whether employ or unemployed we shouldn't just fold our hands and watch helplessly, we know our rights we need to fight this corruption to avoid further sales of employment slot when it ought to be by merit. So guys wake up and fight for ur rights.

ngwa, keep fighting for your rights instead of looking for sth to do.
U think u are in US.

All these candidates dont appeal to me.
Soludo shd have remained in PDP where he had more chances of winning

[quote author=Mayor_of_Lagos]

Ohaneze is funny! There is problem back home over who will rule Anambra and they have not stepped up to endorse any candidate yet even though doing so will help unify the base and the region but they are endorsing a candidate who does not need anyone's endorsement to win unanimously in a landslide victory.

I tell you, Ibos need to do what they know best, sell spare parts and drugs and leave politics to those naturally endowed for it.

Ohaneze is tripping. [/quote]what do yorubas do since they dont sell drugs n spare parts?
Small beans wey una suppose sell,hausa ppl cum chance una for ur own market.
Which one una dey do for dis country sef?

What are these yorrobers ranting for.
Ohaneze endorsed Ibikunle and he accepted without ranting all these tnz, so wetin be una own?
.
To those asking y there are igbos in ogun;
till u guys bcum industrious, non-yorubas will keep making money from ur shit holes.

Italiano1: And yet, your people sell their land to send their young men to the SW. You are one funny dude

we need d money

Make it enabling yourself

[quote author=i-General]Another marginalisation attempt. There is no igbo or hausa representation in the contact trustees. Only yoruba, Edo and Calabar. SMH.



























I suggest GEJ and PEJ as trustees since they are father and mother of all of us.[/quote]what are igbo graduates supposed to be doing in that rag-tag organisation?

[quote author=wise_many2k]Bet me someone here will call me a prophet in 5yrs time! This guys have another hidden agenda off their sleeves! Very soon, when they gain ground, they'll start showing their true colour. How will they get funding? Their are 2 ways
1) Govt funding; thereby making them campaign tools for election rigging and deceit of the graduates without vision
2) Internally generated funding. I don't mean that the excos and trustees will empty their pockets and accounts (afterall they are unemployed) rather, they will request that all 9ja graduates pay a stipend (perhaps 1k each) to run the association.

Now my next question is, if the excos get a job tomorrow, do they seize to be members of the exco or association in general?

Are they backed by any legislation or is there any federal legislator/senator that is backing the association?

Honestly, I feel a politician has set up this association now to help gather millions of unemployed 9ja youths under an umbrella in anticipation of 2015.[/quote]dont mind them

leggo: Pls!! If we are to report every similar incident like this everyday Nairaland's frontpage woild be a bloodbath.

Next

imagine the kind of tnz that made front page . *smh*

geeez: The last major flooding we had got Onitsha submerged

The landlocked SE zone has a landmass almost the size of Oyo

As if that is not bad enough, half of the land is erosion ravaged

Oya nah, if dats what will alleviate d poverty in SW, let it be.
What are fellow southerners for?

cashkid18: evn here in coal city..

akpomeme: Was in ibadan this weekend too. Annoying sites... ibadan is filled with beggars. Shamelessly, able body men and women well dressed go dey beg.

are u telling me abt ibadan, d one that has been a capital for decades ? *smh*
All SW places are boring and shanty-like. I dont know what is sucking their money.

basilo101: WILSON GROUP has bn processing palm oil (Solive Oil) in Enugu state 4 long. Y cnt u ppl embrace local entrapreneurship?

for where?

manny4life: Seriously, my brothers, you guys need to quit this argument. Thank God that GEJ has called for SNC, the sooner this country breaks up, the better. It's time to think home and begin divesting in Lagos in particular, enough of this silly rants which has yielded unfounded lies and deceit. If they say Enugu is poor, ehhh na, so be it.

nobody is arguing dat enugu with a lower gdp is beta dan oyo with a higher gdp.
Dey only opened a thread so dat we wl put dem where dey belong and we are helping dem with dat,
wat are fellow southerners for?

Ikengawo: Yoruba community alleges marginalisation in Enugu
By Emmanuel Nzomiwu, Reporter, Enugu






http://odili.net/news/source/2009/oct/26/410.html





no Yoruba in the east right? We're hear dealing with there scientific begging and you're on your laptop making noise. You're probably on Iweka road right now.

the East is not for the faint hearted.
They really expect our govt to release stipends to dem .
And sb is disproving they are not lazy.
Which igbo man says fashola or so isnt giving him allocations in lagos?
Dis kind of cross country almajirism doesnt speak volumes of a region with a higher gdp dan enugu at all

Kairoseki77: The way you are spilling lies is what made me create this thread.

The bigger an economy gets, the more diverse it becomes. This is simple economics and not a weakness. It is a strength.

Name one powerful country that does not have diverse ownership of it's businesses.

Lastly, the majority of the businisses in the SW are owned by Yorubas. Of this I am sure.

In most economies, the largest employer of labor is the small business sector. In the US, 70% of people work for small businesses. I am sure it is the same for Nigeria, and the SW in particular. That means that the overwhelming majority of SW peeps are employed by Yorubas that own small businesses. And I am talking pharmacies, small law firms, security firms, builders, etc, etc.

If Enugu really only has indigenenous businesses, that means that no one else wants to invest there. This is not something I'd want to advertise.

am strongly advertising that igboland has d highest conc of indigenous ventures ranging from soap manufacturing to cars!!!
Didnt i tell u igbos r too much?
If u think china is not dominated by chinese ventures, na u sabi
.
On d oda hand, its unarguable dat yorubalanf has non-yorubas contributing d majority of their gdp.
Dey have d highest conc of non indigenous ventures in nig because they are simple non-innovative and lazy.
Hence, other grps of ppl cum there to make more money for demselves.
D next thing, dey wl connive with their govt to think of what to do abt d situation.
But instead of d govt creating jobs to d ppl, they are made to join omo oniles and agberos.
*smh*
