Olu317: I boast? Is that all you can think of? Come up with any other one. Pained me? I laughed reading this uncontrollably .How on earth can you figure a boastful person passing information that had been in the hidden for years beyond Nigeria's existence. I have given certain information about Ooni lineage worship which you can not easily find on Google or any other documented history. If God see me as boastful, I doubt if I will be a member of that lineage .Anyway, it is beyond you. Enjoy yourself .

isalegan2: What about a generation later and the Edo man's children who were born and raised in Lagos, married a Lagosian spouse and continued to reside in Lagos with their children, showed interest in governing? Don't worry...  they will not, even if they live in Lagos for 5 generations. There are already 2nd, 3rd and 4th generation Bini/Edo folks living in Lagos. Many of them have even intermarried with Yorubas. How many of them have come out to contest for governorship in Lagos?  They respect themselves too much to do so. If they wish to contest for governorship, they will look towards Edo state. They are content with their own sphere of influence. I repeat: they are not land grabbers like the IPOB-Igbo youths..... |

MTN came to nigeria on it's own. No money bag brought them. MTN was and is still the biggest telecoms company on Africa. They had to lobby OBJ. . .sorry, story for another day.
Diamond bank? I hope you are aware this bank is struggling? I read somewhere they will be focussing solely on Nigerian market.
All the malls in nigeria are crap. They are good example of what I mean when i say we need professionals.
Anyways bro, I'm not casting aspersions on anyone, but I wish we'd get something right. Ghana has Vodafone. Can you imagine? Ghana.
I pray our rail system doesn't get in the hands of money bags aka portfolio investors. Vodacom is in Nigeria too, but it functions as a telecoms infrastructure company. Vodafone through certain subsidiary companies, holds 50% of the issued share capital of Vodacom. Currently, Vodacom is jointly owned by Telkom South Africa, which holds a 50% stake in Vodacom, and Vodafone, which also holds 50%.
In terms of the proposed transaction, Vodafone will acquire a further 15% of the issued share capital in Vodacom from Telkom.
Vodacom will be listed on the JSE and Telkom will unbundle its remaining 35% shares in Vodacom to its own shareholders. https://mg.co.za/article/2009-02-16-vodacom-and-vodafone-merger-gets-goahead . |

Gerrard59: You call the Carlyle Group mushroom? 
Few Nairalanders know about private equity and the players. ACA formed by the current minister for Trade and Investment even has a higher chance than Dangote ditto Carlyle whose senior board member is HRH Sanusi Lamido.
Let a private equity firm buy 9mobile jare! The Carlyle Group is not a mushroom company by any standard. They are an experienced private equity firm with a financial war chest. What most private equity firms do after buying up such companies, is to bring in experts to manage the firm and turn its fortunes around. After they have put the firm on a solid footing and made profit, they cash in their shares, and take their exit. By the time this is done, the company has already become bouyant and has become a more attractive option for new investors. |

Grundig: I do not wish to get into any argument with you. But I need you to understand that what Nigeria needs are not Portfolio Investors. We've had enough of people with 'gift of the gab'. Nigeria needs professionals. People with money, the requisite skills and chutzpah to back it up. Basically, we need the dogs bollocks!
See what happened to power? Use that as a case study. Suavemente! The private equity firms have cash. Lots of it. Basically, what they would do is bring in telecom experts to manage the firm, turn it around and make it profitable, so they can then cash in their shares and exit the firm, with a tidy profit. Private equity firms did not make a bid for the assets in our power sector. |

kettykin: it is not an easy thing to forecast in times like this becuase of the fragility of Nigeria and the dispensibility of the present brainless , thoughtless and planless Regime that thrives on propaganda.
what are your view about the desireability of an edo or igbo man to rule lagos in the year 2023, your views should factor the fact that Lagos was originally Edo which means Edo people owned lagos while igbos as a group are the largest investors , landlords and unltimtely IGR contributors in lagos .
please discuss intelligently Stop this propaganda. No self-respecting Edo man will come out to contest for governorship of Lagos, no matter how much investments he has within the city. He is content with his own square metre of influence in his region, where he can call the shots with contentment. Edo men are not landgrabbers unlike you lot! |

kettykin: In anyone thinking Igbo's cannot be civilian governors of Lagos should take a Trip back to the 70s , an Igbo man was the best military governor lagos ever had Ndubuisi Kanu was the military governor that laid the foundation of modern Lagos state and up until another Igbo man rules Lagos , lagos will continue on its directionless growth , growth without pattern, Lagos needs an out of the box solution and not the present patch patch remedy. Who voted for Ndubusi Kanu and Ebitu Ukiwe to become governors of Lagos in the 70s?  Do you think we are still under a military regime? Those chaps were naval officers posted there by military fiat, and not elected by the people of Lagos, to govern them. There is a big difference!! Don't argue blindly. Check the facts.  And the growth of Lagos was laid by Tinubu, built upon by Fashola and improved by Ambode. Jakande should also be commended for all he did in Lagos, with respect to educatiional facilities and housing estates.  Now, please tell us in clear terms what Ndubuisi Kanu, did when he was military governor of Lagos. What foundation are you claiming that he laid, when he was just governor for 1 year?  |

That will not happen until we've had an Igbo president, which I am convinced is a certainty by the year 2023!
Funny thing, I hadn't thought about Edo people clamouring for presidency though. Forget Oshiomole. He's dead in the water! That fake "comrade" is too hateful and meanspirited, and Nigerian women will not vote for him. Laudate has a better shot!  |

What concerns me if IDU descended from sky or Igala from Nok or wherever anyone chooses to identify with? If anyone wants to to identify with Yoruba ancestors, so be it but drag my ancestors not into it. Edo who have intermarried in Lagos,Ekiti or anywhere in Yoruba land can so choose to come forth and be proud of it as I am proud of my Race. Yoruba don't distort history but dem dem do. Furthermore , you drag yourself into this which resulted into Odu'a issue,have you forgotten? And because you assumed the position of a good sympathizer, which seems very wrong because you are not informed as to the reasons for my opinion and you have Learned either you like it or not as it stand. And if you disagree as I can perceive until I am proven otherwise,at least others have learnt too. Perhaps, you can do DNA to verify if you are Yoruba descendant too. Who knows? I know my ancestry and I do not need to write long epistles to prove it to anyone, neither do I need to wail about it, like you have been doing on this thread.

Before he did so, Dangote had already decided to construct the road, and Fashola had sought FEC approval to cover the project. What part did Dino play in making Dangote agree to construct that road? Govt is not the one constructing Kabba-Ilorin road. Kabba-Ilorin road is part of the Lokoja- Obajana-Kabba-Ilorin road, that Dangote promised to construct, in exchange for tax relief measures for his company - the Obajana Cement Factory. |
