[quote author=Mrs.Chima]You shouldn't have to pay for a wife. If she loves you and you loves her....it shouldn't cost a penny.[/quote]so doing traditional rites is now buying a wife.
how exactly did chima marry u?

Dallas Cowgirl: Do yourself a favor and list them....
Lol the lies una keep telling yourself on Nairaland.
Almost all the Rich Yorubas of reputable names are married to Yoruba women.
Nairaland, the cyber airway for ibo lies

I'm still at awe that many Yorubas are letting Ibo ppl continue with their lies on Nairaland.
Is it Yoruba men that marry Ibo ladies that still turn back to Yoruba women at the end? I.e Stella Damascus that has been passed around between 3 Yoruba men, 2 divorces etc.

yoruba women are d ones dat gv birth in dier homes.
It happens in real life not nairaland.
Yorbas dat want to marry igbo r d rich ones to start with. And its a feat for dem

dayokanu: Slum capital yet your people wont stop flooding there on a daily basis.

Why would someone go to the slum capital? Its either they love slum life, Or the slum is better than whatever they have

u ppl are lazy to start up ventures nah.
So, we take up the job because we need the money. Thats y foreigners are there too.
Controlling common poultry businesses.
Yes, Ibadan is crappy.

dayokanu: Is it that people are so dull?

Oyo is a wealthier state than Enugu no argument about that. only a dummy would argue that.

Instead of you to say the poverty in your land is chasing you away you dey argue here


Hausas bring beans to Yoruba land so whats the big deal with that

no, rather dey chanced u in the bringing -in business.
And poverty cudnt allow u to buy common beans.*smh*
they took over ur own mkt, abeg go and read d news and see how ur brothers lamented on sufferings they face at ibadan.
.
Yes, oyo has a higher gdp dan enugu, the former's economy made by foreign ventures ranging from agribiz to manufacturing; d oyo indigenes contributing a negligible input.
Enugu with lower gdp has richer citizens, a presentable capital, more indigenous industries and other enterprises. Beta villages than ur shanties,etc.
The joke is on u guys,biko.
How can everybody own more than u in ur own lands?
Talking abt laziness.
Go to lagos, d same tnz. U dont own much aside ur political jobbers.
Dayokanu, go and sleep biko.
High gdp with nothing to show for it is actually a shameful thing.

customized13: lol!!!!!! This guy is a bigoted being, u think u cn freak us out with dat? Chai, so what's so the big deal wt goin 2 nyc, doing businees thr and using an iphone. So dat has made u travelled than me? Loooool, I won't come and me counting achievements here. 4 u 2 hv done this, it must be d 1st time u are travelling out and u think I wil praise u 4 dat? Lol, u dnt knw anywhr, both in nigeria and outside nigeria. Am through wt u.

Na y he dey excited.
*smh*

customized13: did smbody jst call ijebu-ode and shagamu cities?

Na y i dey laff dem nah.
None of dose shanties beta pass nsukka/Udi towns.

SW is one big slum part of nigeria.
.
Remember am stl talking abt places in enugu state o, cos if i talk abt anambra..........

[quote author=sam(obo)]no problem, we control both the formal and in formal drug trade. chasing the drug hawkers is as good as profiting the cabalous drug industry(the big boys in the drug industry which the igbos control and dominate), thereby increasing their profit and also a good news for those that have shares with this companies because it will translate into better dividends [/quote]

ichidodo: Nice development, we don't want this yoruba 'agbo alabukun' drug peddlers to spoil our business.Emzor,Fidson, Orange drugs et al can cater the drug needs of the whole Lagos population.If we are paying tax? shouldn't the Lagos Government work for us and chase our yoruba alabukun competitors off the streets?? Eko onibaje for the igbos sha.

and Juhel.
They are so many.
Nice devt for igbos in lagos.
Eko o ni baje o

geeez: All those so called chemists selling fake drugs should be arrested and prosecuted. A lot of them cannot even spell the word PHARMACY and they dispense drugs and in some instances prescribe and even treat.

Taking advantage of a person's ill health not only to profit but in some cases further aggravate the victim's condition is nothing but criminal

What we want in our noble state are the likes of Bukky's Healthplus, Mrs. Joke Bakare's Medplus and Prince Julius Adeluyi's Juli Pharmacy

We need to rid the streets and neighborhoods of Lagos of these heartless criminals and return them to where they belong

dont worry.
Our own 'HealthPlus' and 'MedPlus' will still outnumber urs.
No be we teach una how to 'MedPlus'?
Its a win-win.
Na agbo sellers go hear am pass

Vilicious: Take a look at Iran, Iraq, syria and pakistan then you will have a reason to celebrate naija

and by d time i look at US,UK and China, wat am i supposed to bw doing?

xynerise: Are these your priority of marrying a woman or you marry her out of love?

Yes, the bride price is too expensive but if you check very well, the Igbos make better wives in terms of cooking, Loyalty, faithfulness and hardworking .

I spent about 600k for my wife and she worth it jare

My sister's hubby spent more

exactly

Dallas Cowgirl: And ibo girls wonder why they remain unmarried and childless by the age of 35 lmao
So you won't marry because some selfish armchair village chief wants his own private jet?
The tradition of selling women for the sakes of marriage must be discontinued.
Every woman in each region is priceless, but they do not get sold to the highest bidder.
As a Yoruba woman, highly educated, sexy etc etc knows her value. She does not need a list of material goods marked down by selfish, hungry family members and village chiefs to marry the man of her dreams.

still yorubas girls are d ones dat grow old and even have children in their paternal homes.
Some rich yoruba dudes daily strive to marry igbo gals.
*smh*

pandriod: For a start can you stop putting ss and se together? You even have the audacity to call other people lazy when in actual sense you ibos are the parasites. Show me one thing the ibos or se are contributing to this country. How much in revenue is the whole se contributing to federation accounts on monthly basis? less than 10 billion naira while sw contributes something in neighbourhood of 200 billion naira, after ss and you call others parasites.CAN THE IBOS SURVIVE A MONTH WITHOUT OIL REVENUE?

Last year alone, revenues from cocoa stood at a billion dollars. CAN YOU SHOW ME ANYTHING FROM S E THAT RIVALED THAT?

did u just ask d contributions of SE to dis nation?
Its easier to ask what are d contributons of sw(not lagos) to d country, of wch d answer wl be none.

Kairoseki77: Ohhh. That's why you people keep mentioning Oyo. Thanks.

The rest of Nigeria has moved on from the civil war. It is only your region that spends so much time fixated on past decades. It's 2013. Stop dreaming about the past and improve your states. Stop making desperate comparisons between non-existent Eastern Nigeria and Western Nigeria.

The SW is more developed than your region, Oyo's economy is as large as the entire SE Nigeria, focus on that.

u guys were d ones that highlighted oyo and enugu in the gdp list.
But den, oyo has poorer citizens ,disprove it.
2) the GDP is not made by yorubas but foreigners , so wat does dat tell u?
U are too lazy and cowardly to invest in ur own areas.
Common beans biz dem chance una.
U cant even buy beans just because of poverty.
High gdp my foot

dayokanu: Whats the population of Udi? Whats the population of Nnsukka if you remove the UNN students?

Enugu is a hell hole everyone even Ibos avoid

let me start by saying dat am not arguing with u,cos there is no argument to start with ; am only educating u.
U mite be annoyed to know that most students in esut n unn are igbos. Nsukka is an entreport btw north and SS/SE, has huge population.
How do u think there wl be a sch environment in a certain place in d east without igbos rushing to dat place to spring up indigenous enterprises there.
We are not yorubas here o.

Y not go to nsukka,Agbani n udi urself other than making lazy insinuations.
Many employment opportunities abound in Udi esp 9th mile ,Ngwo ranging from breweries to factories.
We are talking of populations with better and literate ppl , not those ones in d shanty areas of Sw where 40percent are mad/mentally retarded, 42 are beggars, 2percent political jobbers while d rest are lazy civil servants

.
Or are u asking abt figures from census? Nonsense, many igbos refused to be counted in dat criminal census because nothing wl make dem reverse the north: south ratio.

dayokanu: You just alluded to the fact that South East is a hell hole

How many Americans leave their country for Congo or even Mexico?

Even one of the Ibo posters on this thread is in Ogun, One said he lived in Ibadan. almost all the Ibos on this forum dont even live in their region because of its a Hell hole

Even from the 60's several Ibos fled their homeland because of the extreme poverty

Mention 2 cities in Enugu state outside of the state capital with a population of over 100,000

Oyo has Oyo, Ogbomoso, Saki etc

Osun has Ilesha, Ede, Ila

Ondo has Owo, Ondo

Ogun has Ijebu Ode, Sagamu, Ota, Agbara

Even Ekiti has Ilawe, Ikere etc

Fact is Enugu and the entire SE is a hell hole and extreme poverty pervades the whole place

nsukka and Udi do.
Nkanu esp since Esut was relocated to agbani.
.
Nwoke m, unu bu cowards. SE is not for faint hrts like u. U cant compete here.
The yorubas here are not doing impt tnz, just nominal jobs like civil service, some used to stay at ogbette market but have been evacuated to God knows where.
The hausas , same tnz. Largely cobblers, well diggers, small kiosk owners.
How do u expect ur lot to come here n compete with ibeto, innoson, chikason, d various transport companies, other manufacturers, academicians?
Guy , una no fit.
Igbos even go to SW to compete with oda igbo brodas sef , and not ur folks.
U ppl are losers already. Cowardice restricts u to dose poverty -tied regions of urs with of course 'high gdp'. Lwkmd!

Kairoseki77: Even your mentality is that of a poor people. Aspiring to sell common groundnut by the roadside is very sad. Thinking that second hand clothes sellers are running "big business"! I laugh and cry.

Is this why you think you run Lagos State? Because you run all the PETTY businesses, while Yoruba run construction, accounting firms, law offices, manufacturing, etc, etc?

Please reach higher. Even your dreams are too small. And even a common Google search will tell you where Ojukwo studied and lived as a child.

my friend, go and melt.
Igbos do all those tnz more dan u.
Infact, there is no aspect of ingenuity where igbos have not dominated in nigeria.
They are not really into agric cos their minds are not there yet.
.
Did u say manufacturing? Accounting? What are u ppl even accounting? Owo da? Mtchew.
Na now i knw say u are living on high hopes.
Egunje, omo onile and almajirism are ur professional courses.
.
If igbos are only into petty trading, y are u guys afraid of igbo domination in lagos?
Was it not @ ibadan where hausas chance una for beans till u had to cry to ur govt?
E get nothing wey una neva see for una 'guests'. Lazy bones

Boicc: why would someone compare oyo to enugu. If my Igbo serves me ryt, OYO in Igbo language means BEGGERS!!!

*dies*
cant u see they have left the topic and started talking abt sth else they cant defend?
How dey wan do am before? Compare oyo to enugu because of GDP o, imagine?
I dont know if u have gone there but if ibadan is dat crappy, there is no point talking abt oda places in d state.

dayokanu: The poverty and crime wey dey drive people comot for East no get part 2.

Every bus park is filled with people trying to flee

oh yes.
Prove d migration is due to poverty.
Guy, we need d money from all corners of d world. And u cant do anytn abt it.
Unlike yorubas dat prefer being almajiris of d south, in their own villages while guests build magnificent houses to ur face. Hahaha. Igbos get class abeg.
.
Disprove dat 3 igbo states are not part of cashless policy, una dey for dat policy sef?
I thought by now u guys could av started asking questions based on dis GDP issue?
What shall it profit a region to have high gdp without significant indigenous enterprises to show for it?
.
Abeg, my friend is opening his type of outlet in Lagos next wk, and if thats going to frustrate d hell out of u, i wl be at d laughing end.
East and poverty my foot

passion007: Oh, well, it's down to Us vs Them.
At least, your brothers from across the Niger tried to say "This is a mistake, costly, not easily corrected"
But you chose to reply "Take your advice and shove it!"

Thankfully, the East has her Adapalm indigenous palm oil processing factory. When the have-nots in your land can no longer afford the luxury of palm oil (as was the case with Oloyin beans), may be the goodhearted Rochas will come to your rescue. After all, what are (APC) friends for?

Adapalm !
Indigenous!
Thats d way out. Leave all those ppl that brag abt everything being in their land even though they dont own any.
We need economic independence from white ppl and only easterners are gearing 2wds it.
North and west be like : 'white ppl, abeg,come and colonise us again. We no fit on our own'.
Hehehehe.
And 2moro, dey will yarn GDP dat will not correspond to their wages per month , bank acct balance and houses they build.

agbameta: Again, another stride and development in the SW...


.......and again of course, the angry and bitter zero development folks from the land of nothing on the other side of the Niger are here to express their usual bitterness and sorrow..


Never fails..

dis one no follow for devt nah, how haters go hate this?
Is dis going to improve d standard of living of those indigenes?
If not, hating is not allowed here.

remark D: For posterity sake, the lie you cleared up is your own lie that Oyo state with its high GDP is a wealthy state when its people are starving and can not buy beans at =N= 550....

and check the last statement in parts of this article curled from tribune...

THERE was pandemonium at the Bodija market in Ibadan on Friday as Yoruba and Hausa traders clashed, resulting in the destruction of goods worth millions of naira.

No one could say categorically what triggered the clash, except what many of the traders regarded it as a built-up anger over the downturn in their economy since the killing of 14 Yoruba traders in Borno State on May 4 and June 28 this year, where they had gone to buy beans.

Since the killing of their colleagues (the second incident) on June 28, Yoruba traders have stopped travelling to the north-eastern state, where the specie of beans (Oloyin) loved by people in the South-West is usually found at cheaper price.

However, Hausa traders in Bodija market were said to have been receiving regular supply of the commodity from their kinsmen and had been selling same at exorbitant prices to traders willing to buy and re-sell.

This had resulted in a hike in the price of beans, which has risen to N550 per measure, against N280 for which it was sold before the Borno killing of the traders.

Pent up anger, however, boiled over on Friday afternoon while Muslim faithful were observing Jumaat in mosques, leading to the disruption of the peace of the entire market.

Different weapons like sticks, stones and iron rods were freely used, with the Yoruba traders chanting that they would no longer keep quiet over the agenda of the Hausa to take over commerce in the market.

One of the traders, Saidi Baoku, who spoke with Saturday Tribune, alleged that the Hausa traders in the market were trying to take food off their tables by killing their business.

He further insinuated that the killing of the traders in the market was masterminded by the Hausa traders to pave way for their control of the market, as the Yoruba traders would no longer be able to go to the North to buy foodstuffs.

He said that the over N40 million lost by the slain traders was not as painful as their lives that were brutally terminated.

“We have tried to be patient but we have seen that if we don’t fight for ourselves, these Hausa will continue to cheat us in our own land.

After all, the driver of the vehicle in which the 10 traders were was not killed. We want everybody and government to come to our aid and help so that we don’t die of hunger,” he stated.

quote author=Kairoseki77]Glad we cleared up this lie. Gotta stay vigilant against slippery chest beating liars.

Always coming up with new lies.

With this , I say End of Discussion.
High GDP with very poor population,hahahahahaha.
Peace out.

Gifted4all: Oboi eeee dis calls for celebration my elder brother is among d new ambassadors.abeg make i quick arrange my bag and move to abuja

lolz

geeez: There's more economic activity in Osun State than a lot of states in Nigeria

Osun o ni baje

Yorubaland o ni baje

While some people are politicking, we are engaging in serious economic activities

Next year when we post our GDP figures, they will start poking fingers at it

italian owned...

Looking at d states dey emnate from sef,*smh*

all4naija: I will go with this your comment, if only you can provide Arial-view images of these villages to support your claim.

Thank you.

and who is dis fo.ol?
Go and sit down,
personally, i have not seen those mud houses myself.
.
Let me know where u come from

Orlando Owoh: Shut up and stop this attachee, there are only 5 states in the SE, which you call East.

were did i write dat south east has more dan 5 states?
We are talking of distances btw intl airports in dat syd of d country

dayokanu: First of all Can you list these 11 Eastern states and demonstrate to all how much of an illiterate you are

Then can you follow it and list the traffic in those 11 Eastern state airport. Sum it together and now multiply it by 2 if it would even scratch the one in MMIA

The biggest tourism event in Nigeria is the Osun osogbo festival and a lot of foreigners attend without fear of being kidnapped like in the east

One of the biggest golf courses in the country is in Osun State.

Show us whats in that evil forest called Enugu

ok,if u dont knw d 11 states in d SS/SE nigeria, forget it.
.
Of course, enugu as a state doesnt celeberate a common festival, each town of d various LGA does their festivals that attract ppl from nigeria and diaspora.
And y are we talking abt festivals here? Is that d tourist sites abi GDP we are talking abt?
Guy, always learn to stick to topic biko.
.
Moreover, Enugu has this beautiful estate in its western outskirts called 'Golf Estate' named after d prestigious golf course in dat area .
And then again, y are we discussing golf courses?
There is no SW state u can compare to Enugu. Simple. Stop talking abt these trivial tnz.
.
Abt MMIA, we all know where d bulk of passengers come from, even at at water ports, we all know the importers and exporters.
So, leave dat side for now.

django1: You live in ibadan? You must be one of those smelly people then?

Btw how many people fly out of the "many" international airports in the eastern region?

am most sure of enugu.
D planes leave d airport with their full capacities occupied.

Iykopee: Guy dont waste ur time schooling these dudes with notin to offer... They are 2 poor to compete with ur brodas. They have d highest GDP yet, u cant find same reflect on d lives of their people.. That means sometin is wrong somewhere.

No, they need to be told their stand once in a while.
Imagine one of dem telling me abt Osun. Its no longer oyo.
They did a documentary of dat state( abt aregbesola roads) on TV and for 30mins of d programme,i kept seeing the demostration of 'poverty stricken ppl and houses'

On a more serious note, i dont know what is keeping dem impoverished, abi na too much
juju.
U kno say anywhere wey dem dey do dat tn too much no dey progress.
