He should grow a proper moustache or shave it off before I will support him

How good was Obi in Anambra.

Yes it's true. Kindly read this below

War destroys cities:
Every Nigeria City or aspiring city should learn something from the Collapse of Warri as Oil City👇👇👇

Warri was a big industrial hub in the 70's - 90's.

Warri Refinery, NNPC, DSC, Delta Glass, Shell, Chevron, Schlumberger, Dunlop, Agip, Saipem, Halliburton were in full operation back then. Escravos & Forcados were at their peak.

The city thrived. The city was full of zeal and zestful activities. People living outside hardcore Warri called themselves Wafarians because of propinquity to Warri even though they were not Wafarians. To be a Wafarian was to belong to supposedly a unique lifestyle.

Multinational/Local Banks were present Citibank, FBN, ACB, Savannah Bank.

Business activities thrived. Warri port was a beehive of economic activities

Entertainment/Night life was at its peak, Musicians, Live bands at Palmgroove Hotel, Comedians held their sway: Fela, legendary Don Baker, Majek Fashek, Emma Grey, Oritz Wiliki, Rex Lawson were a few of many of the entertainers that made Warri ebullient. Lido, Zina, etc were comparable to their ilks anywhere.

The town was full of life and it thrived.

McDermot road was busy with Maritime activities and contractors. Kingsway Mall offered anything sold in Lagos at that time.

Joma & Mosheshe were big fish distributors across the Niger Delta.

Rubber produced locally, was used to produce plastics and tyres.

The town grew in size and became a conurbation with people coming from all over the country to settle down in Warri for economic activities.

The Airports were super busy, Escravos, Forcados & Warri Airport. The Warri Airport was even relocated to Osubi for expansion.

Warri was revelling in its glory. Warri Port was fully operational and served as an economic booster for the city. It served businesses in Warri, Benin, Asaba & Onitsha. The Port created huge employment opportunities for locals and the state.

Things started to go downhill from the late 90's. The community leaders and youth chairmen began to fight themselves over control/sharing formula for royalties that came from oil & businesses from settlers.

Itsekiri, Urhobo & Ijaw leaders & youths started fighting each other. The bloody fight started around 1999 and lasted for years till 2003/2004.

The community leaders started imposing local taxes called "Deve" on all companies, industries and local businesses, buildings & projects.

Little by little, the companies frustrated, started leaving.

This continued throughout the early 2000's till 2010. The companies kept on leaving, one after the other. The companies layed off their employees. Unemployment rose.

More companies left for PH, Lagos, Akwa Ibom. They layed off more staff. Unemployment increased still.

Today all that is left in Warri, is a shadow of its glorious past.

95% of all the big companies in Warri had either left or closed down.

Most of the young people have left Warri.

The ones left are driving Keke, doing P.O.S, Spa or Boutique, Beer parlour or doing hookup.

There's peace now, but the damage the greedy community leaders did to Warri, still lingers on and is almost irredeemable at this point.

Do not assume that your city can not be destroyed if it toes the same route Warri followed. Warri leaders did not ever believe that Warri will be this economically empty today while they were fighting then. Learn from Warri and protect our economies

Have you asked why big eeconomies like US, China,etc will never allow war in their countries?

We must learn and avoid things that will trigger war in our country no matter how strong we believe we are. Businesses and investors go where there is peace than where there is war.

CodeTemplar:
lol at economy of warri.

I never defended tinubu in my comment. You just don't know how to stick to the topic of conversation. You asked how it can be stopped and I gave you.
I don't even support the APC.
Kidnapping destroyed the economy of warri because no real punishment was given. Bro learn to have a civil conversation

Brendaniel:
This is the Nigeria of some people's dreams, They told us Tinubu is the only one who can fight Fulani herdsmen that Peter Obi is not courageous , under him the Fulani herdsmen even became bolder and started killing their own kings, and sadly they are not even calling Tinubu out.



So because it started before APC was formed means it should keep getting worse?

The way you people reason, when people like Tinubu are reading this nonsense you people are writing in defense for them, they just laugh and feel relaxed to do nothing...


Thank God for his life, may the others be released, safe sound and on time.

That's not true. Kidnapping pays that's why people get into it.
It started long before APC was formed.
It will end if the kidnappers are punished on the spot.

Osiris12:
the day we sack Apc from all the elective positions in Nigeria . It’s now known that your principal is clueless

And whose country is being destroyed and leaders removed?
Iran is no match for Israel

Dshocker:
Keep watching CNN and BBC the masters of propaganda.

Oga Israel and America really felt the heat from Iran, you think say na play play.

95 percent of Iran's missiles are intercepted

Dshocker:
And they couldn't intercept that of iran

Terrible, and every year they would present new budget

We have but they are old, besides we don't have enemies that use such missiles

CorrectionFLuid:
Not all countries have interceptors tho. Your country for instance doesn't have.

Barca will lose this match

Does that include your mom?

You underestimate the USA, these war are not full scale war. The US will damage china beyond recognition

TEYA:
Who here knows that if China should take over Taiwan the US will not be able to do anything due to Iran fatigue?

Okay na. Let's see who will be the presidential flag bearer

Please look into exportation, so you can earn in foreign exchange and thereby growing Nigeria

I hope we don't have any aircraft carrier sunk. That would complicate things on all sides

Nigeria must retaliate. Send NNS thunder now

Na food sharing Dy reign now.
Well done sir for your kind heart

Mongolia: ghengis khan

I just pray one of it is not sunk. Else they will take Iran back to stone age

The war is last at most a month

Come to Abraka Delta State. We rarely have 4 hours of light in one whole week or sometimes 2 weeks and you expect me to pay a bill of 20k per month.
They should give everyone prepaid meter so they can charge only what they provide

We blunt in this app.
