So much for calling a whole tribe IPOBS.

Its a widely expressed fact that IPOB are the major supporters of Peter Obi.

babasolution:
Am sure you mean the greatest slave race in Africa

I didn't mention Igbo race, the widely known slave race, in my comment.

Atiku one of the slave masters says hi.

PointZerom:
Shut up, Buhari has no option than to say this. Tinubu was never his preferred choice but as events unfolded and he couldn't have his way on consensus candidate, no other option than to swallow the humble pie.

Nonsense as usual.
Thought you said buhari was the all in all, that there was no way Tinubu could have won if he, buhari, had endorsed any other Candidate. Clowns.

History will record IPOB as the greatest loosers since the creation of this Nation after 2023. Evil never wins.
Buhari will do this, buhari will do that. Believe the hate filled entities at your own peril.

It is funny though. What do you expect from a scam?

Pete dey Lie. He has infested his Obediently Obi-idiot disciples with the lying virus.

This OP no well

But still a BATIST to the core.

Broom for revolution!!!

NaijaRoyalty:
What happened at Lekki toll gate during the Endsars protest is still fresh in our minds

We will not forget how Tinubu and his men in Lagos sent the military to shoot at innocent youth protesters at Lekki toll gate , we won't forget

It's a sad day that will forever be remembered in our national lives

Neither should we for get the Injustice carried out on the bodies in Akwuzu river on the orders of Peter Obi.

christistruth01:
At Independence the Capital was less than 5% of today's Lagos ,95% of which was in Awolowo's Western Region

The Dream that made Lagos an Economic Powerhouse was Awolowo's Dream

Awolowo was busy trying to Overtake Europe

It may seem hilarious in today’s Nigeria but that is the Truth

Awolowo built Ikeja including its industrial estates From the Scratch out of a jungle where Elephants, leopards, and Gorillas were still roaming around, into the Capital of the western region

Awolowo was building Modern Cattle Ranches all over the western region with Cattle Imported from Isreal in 1956 !!

Awolowos western region had Television’ before France !

Awolowo had big dreams for his People, Singapore and Dubai were too small compared to what Awolowo was aiming for
With all humility , Awolowo outperformed the British

The dream that turned lagos into an Economic Powerhouse was Awolowos dream

Awolowo was Jailed for that Dream

I am not Joking

So the FG influence was even lesser and that sadist called babasolution was saying nonsense. Naturally Lagos is blessed and it is more blessed to have fallen in the hands of one of the greatest race in Africa. Without the Federal government's influence, especially OBJs trouble and the congestion brought upon Lagos by poor Igbo refugees, Lagos should be competing with cairo. But we have foreigners every where over stretching the limited resources and with no significant help from the FG despite the fact that we contribute the highest to her National treasury.

Having such will be detrimental to our survival as a nation. Some idiots don't even have millitary training yet but have already started enforcing sit at home and doing unknown gunmen. Imagine now giving those riff raffs, with warped Ideologies , proper training. They will now have the mental ability to properly burn down their already dead region.

I'm telling you I don't know a random cop can ring up a judge to cook up a court order with a side note: Reason: I'm trying to be racist.

Perhaps you're missing the contextual meaning of your responses.

Okay dude.... There is no racism in America, Blacks are not arrested and trialed wrongly based on their skin color, BLM does not exist. (Clown emoji)

nairamaniac:
Seun, it's obvious that your opinion, existence and contributions to matters are a big threat to a lot of string characters, including the David Hundeyin guy.
Ofcourse I'm also a fan of his via his works&writeups.

With you in same ship with them, it may dull their shine.
They are just being proactive-bullies.

I have not seen what was wrong with the comment you made to him to investigate peter obi.
Infact it was a compliment.
Is he not an investigative journalist?

Watch your back. These people don't want you to partake freely both in your own terrain(nairaland) and theirs(Twitter, Facebook, etc).

The problem is not only Limited to seun. You can check on the top tech CEO's in the world. They are always hated for no reason. Mark, Elon are all victims . The first one does not really care, while the second gives you as hot as it is.

Vaughanlanrewaj:
If this is the investment PO is showing off as achievement then Anambra state must have had its investment depreciated so much significantly that you need to query the process leading to that 'investment'.

Within same period that he approved this 'investment' and today, International Breweries share price had tanked from over N60 per share to around N5.65 today ( a whopping 1000% decrease in value! ) yet International Breweries has not paid dividends or issued bonus shares!
As a matter of fact, last year, IB just rolled over its $250 milliion loan from its major investor which it must pay even with the liability of forex risk according to loan terms.

Curiously, about same time, some states like Lagos, Osun invested or/raised their number of shares in Airtel, MTN, WAPCO and Julius Berger. Today, those states have reaped massively in dividends, bonus and capital appreciation while Anambra has its own investment in a company with links to HE Peter Obi's family has tanked so horribly that it is now penny stocks. The decision to 'invest' Anambra money into IB requires investigation by EFCC.

It is so so sad and unfortunate that PO was a mediocre governor for 8 years and seems like he wants to get away with it. He should never be voted for. He was to an extent a related party to IB. It was immoral and illegal that he as the Gov of Anambra signed the public funds into IB. The manner he threw Anambra money into IB because of his family business link to IB and despite the avalanche of better investments, is preposterous!

Those individuals and state governments who bought the shares of NGX listed companies like Airtel Africa alone had seen their share price jump from around N200 to N1600 and earned dividends in US dollars.

Do not vote for Peter Obi on this account and the fact that he can not even win.

This is the same thing I was telling one Obidient last night. The number of years an Investment has used in a business does not determine how It depreciates or Appreciates. It all depends on the Market forces.

That's the first time I heard a court order was filed for and issued based on that. No charge, no lawsuit, no allegation, nothing Just a random cop felt like being racist and the judge mailed him a 'court order' based on racism and Voila!
We learn everyday

Lol, The first time. So you are telling you don't know about the racial discrimination the African Americans are always complaining about. Malcolm X, Martin Luther king jr are your heroes, right? What do you think they were fighting for.

There are cases where blacks were locked up for years because of murders they didn't commit.

Are you being Ignorant on purpose? because I am sure we are enlightened enough to know what is going on in the US. Did George Floyd commit any crime?

Nevertheless, in non of those court documents was he charged or indicted for the crimes against him. Every thing was towards seizing the funds on the basis of a suspicion, No, judgement what so ever was passed on him. This should tell you alot

chigator2:
LoL, punch me because of your yeye made in Nigeria lecturer and his PhD that added no value to this Zoo just like his colleagues.
My boys will just blow off your empty head. Silly boy.

You claim all our data is stored, yet we don't have a working social security system.
Yet despite NIN and co. we still can't track down bandits using the telecommunication networks.

Nigeria still can't facilitate biometric voting despite capturing same in every office.

Rather than me being the bane of development in this country people like you are the true dead weights.

You people are too comfortable in rubbish and mediocrity. You feel things are working as the should because you see civil servants go to work everyday ?
I pity you. Your country is rot and decayed. I just can't wait for it's collapse.

.
Which boys. Lol. I go to deal with all of your flat heads, and that your face that looks like that of a thief is the one I will keep hiting till you start thinking straight.

Those same research are the ones that makes the UN and the likes give relief packages to your hungry kids, they are the ones giving the little smart ones in the country opportunity to further their studies abroad, those research is what is making the outside world understand what is happening in Nigeria. Those research save lifes.

I as a person know the system is tilted from the top to the buttom, that is why Yoruba comes first in my dictionary, till sensible people are ready and there to fix it. Eradicating bandits cannot take a serious government more than a year. Enacting serious policies can get the whole country registered for NIN in a year. I know the country is hell already.

If you mess up around me either Igbo or fulani, I will give you your size.

Seriously, you are a fool for thinking Nigerian Ph.d's are not important, Nigerian professionals are being recruited into the European Universities every year.

The funny fact is that the country is going no where, You can either leave or kill your self. One thing I know is that: Nigeria has come to stay.

Where did I claim all the data are stored? There are numerous sources to get data for numerous studies, is different from claiming all the data are stored. If I want to do a poverty study in the north, I dont need the data of the bandits .

chigator2:
This reaffirms what I said already that Statista doesn't collect its own data therefore is highly vulnerable to counter-party credibility risk and flaws.
Therefore it's safe to say concerning Nigeria, Statista figures should be taken with a grain of salt

And you don't think they have their means of certifying the credibility of this data. These are world renowned data collecting agencies, obviouly they will have trusted sources.

I guess they have to be wrong because you want them to be.

chigator2:
Don't dare compare thuggery in Lagos to Anambra.

A state that splits a national union that lasted for progress to favor a political tout and thug.

A state where a thug is being goaded on by his Godfather to contend traditional rulership with the eligible ruling family.

It's a disgrace.

Tommorow they will say Igbos want to take Lagos from us. Meanwhile they are supporting a useless tout who wants to steal the throne from a ruling family in Lagos of which they are not even an indigenes of. Tuehh

I will compare thugery in Lagos to Anambra.

Anambra is a glorified dirty underdeveloped poverty stricken slum.

The thugs in Anambra are hardened unsympathetic criminals when compared to the Lagos type.

As reported by eyewitnesses and different news agencies. They are known for very evil criminal deeds. "You dare not loose guard in the market" they say. I mean how can a place be so unsafe that walking in the street with an hand bag, now requires security protocols . These same bastards are the ones enacting Monday sit at home and slicing peoples private part and posting it on the internet. But you dare open your dirty brown Igbo mouth to blame Lagos thugs. You are demented

You already saying nonsense agains. NURTW is the one of the major cause of violent clash and havoc in the country. If it was not disbanded, Lagos state would be buried underneath a violent tussle for power by ruthless people.

Disbanding it and having the state controling is the right thing to do, That is how it is done in the saner climes. Government control the transportation. I thought you were informed.

chigator2:
Lemme just tell you this straight up. You are not smarter or more informed than me so don't insinuate such on this anonymous platform.

Statista doesn't collect data they only cite and publish data from other others which they deem " credible ".

Where you blind to where I mentioned a sample size. Because an informed fellow will know that by virtue of using sample terminology, I understand that not everyone will be counted.

Nevertheless, there is no meta data / evidence of this sample size to even prove that whosever collected this data.

Extrapolating figures from regression analysis will be a farce if the " determinants " as you mentioned are authentic and rightly calibrated.

Now be truthful is Nigeria transparent, developed or honest enough to represent data in it's purest form. A country that started forging population figures since colonial times inorder to wrestle political power. I doubt so.

Other countries have the metadata and even documentaries of how they perform their census and other data collection and analysis but Nigeria has nothing of such only a bunch of theives pocketing the operational budget and falsifying figures.

Get Wise

You are contradicting your self boy. You are well informed, lol, but dont believe that there is a record some where that has your name on it. Every school, hospital, receipt issuing business centers and local government are population information hub. These are places where data can be gotten from. Since you know what a sample is, you should not be surprised if this method are used. Not every body can be captured, but a certain amount representing the population quite well will be.
Sincerly people like you are the bane to our development as a nation. You are here ridiculing researchers, lecturers who went through the stress to gather data, to process information to put this shit hole on the international stage, in a nation were knowledge is massively under funded because you are trying to proof a point. I should punch your face in right now, because I remember the stress my lecturer went through, during his PHD work.

Those are the academic journals, published by international agencies statista uses. And the data about the poverty level of the south as stated by me before, probably gotten from this university sources too.

I can't argue the population with you, if you believe it is made up fine. But Nigeria isn't recognised as th Largest black african nation for nothing.

All the determinants will be wrong, really?

Loool you don't even know your acclaimed LAGOS.

Am sorry to say,Lagos is not and will never be owned by the Yoruba.You can wish all you want but it will never be.

The day America decides to weed others out,that's when it will realise were loyalties lie.

Lagos belongs to all Nigeria, until the Yorubas get triggered......... lolooooooooooolllllllll it wont be funny though, I have had a first hand experience, civility aside, It can be ugly. Lagos and south west welcomes all though so...kwantinue.

chigator2:
Fake Statistics,

Nigeria is not organized or capable enough to provide credible figures.
Since my birth, I have never been approached for census talkless of these data you mentioned.

They publish forged figures which have no credibility.
Ask them what methods they use in data collection, the sample size or the empirical meta data. You will be shocked that these agencies can't provide such.

If Yoruba truly championed education the ugly sight of illiteracy and thuggery of Yoruba youths popular only in Lagos won't be common place.

In this day and age, look at people like portable, an archetype of the lower class Yoruba youth. I haven't seen such stark brazen illiteracy in the rest of southern Nigerian. Educated bawo.

Cheapest schools can't be in Lagos, go to North or even ABA. Some Private schools charge 5,000 a term.

Statista(edited) is fake, what a buffon. Many of the statistics are based on observation, consumer purchasing power, consumer spending power, Tax record with government, observed cost and standard of living in area, bank transaction records. I am surprised you claim smart, but don't even know you all dont even have to be manually counted before your population can be estimated. You are such a mo.ron. I feel disgusted talking to you. I should be able to estimate a country's population for the next 50 yrs, through regression analysis if I have a standard well calculated determinants .

When asked to compare, eyewitness have always maintained that Anambra has the highest and most dangerous form of thugery and agboror system compared to Lagos. The streets are literal criminal dens. The disadvantage Lagos has is the execessive media coverage.

And you think there are no private schools that cost less that 5000 in the west, oh my God, Are you purposely trying to be dull to win an arguement or you are actually dull. Schools cost 1k here and they still have standard. There is quality even at lowest price.

Portable is an artist, No matter his behaviour he gives art, people are drawn to Art. There are Actors whose Lifes are bleeped and wickedly rude, but are still loved by fans because of their Art.

Facts say the oil and gas companies plus the majorly Igbo owned banks pay the most task to Lagos.Teaching your culture to other people s children is the dumbest thing which Yorubas are known for it only opens the door to easier infiltration and invasion Lol.Lagos is what is because of Nigeria not the other way round,if Lagos wasn't the capital of Nigeria for seventy years it wud just be another Akure.

Any yorubinization of Lagos will see Lagos decay.The neutral status of Lagos as come to stay and Lagos will henceforth even be more neutral.The more others even learn the language and culture of yorubas the more Lagos becomes neutral.

The best areas of Lagos have minimal Yoruba influence.

The Yorubas only dominate the rusty,decayed and ever rundown parts of lagos.

Other areas are well evenly distributed and will be more so well into the future.

I'm again sorry to tell you,the Yoruba have no single claim to Lagos.

In the future the Yoruba governorship of Lagos will be well challenged and dismantled.

LAGOS belongs to all.

First of all no fact can say this because Oil and gas pay their taxes to the FG.

How many banks do Igbos own or control major shares exactly. Biggest banks in Nigeria First Bank, GTB , Polaris, FCMB, Keystone, Wema, polaris, stanbic IBTC, sterling bank belong to Yorubas. What Igbo investment can compete with Glo's over 9billion dollar investment

This is turning into a Joke, I have to sleep.

Feeding other people your culture is the best way to win them over, it is the best to groom their loyalty and use their Intelligence when they are ripe. This is why countries like America is leading in the world stage. They dont have dullards like tou in their govt who think internalizing their standard in others is bad.

From Lekki to VI to AJAH to Ikeja are all majorly controlled by Yorubas. Igbos on the other hand are mostly found under the bridge or in the slum areas. That is why any time the Lagos state government wants to demolish the slum areas, the first person to complain will be an Igbo person

Keep dreaming of the future. One day you will sit on the governors sit in your dream.

This is the problem with the average Yoruba person, they focus too much on intangible things, things with no real practical pragmatic value.

So Woke Soyinka having Noble Prize means that every Yoruba Child has free education ba ?

Or having 2 or 3 people on Forbes list means Yoruba race is richer. I pity your lack of wisdom.

Do you even understand what per Capita wealth is ?
Do you know that the average Swiss or Qatari is richer than the average American ?
Yet America has the biggest and most billionaires on earth.


Focus on sensible things before you begin to drag claims and bragging right.
You don chop today ?

The funny thing is everything you mentioned is actually existing in the south west.

I really am feeling sleepy, but I will reply you before I sleep.

According the statista, after the south south, the south east is the next region with highest poverty rate in the South. South west has the least poverty rate. This indirectly means most people in south west are living above the poverty lines compared to place like the east were many are poor and wretched, no wonder the large migration to the west.

The best and cheapest schools are in the south west. You will find good schools that cost close to nothing in almost every state in the south west. The south west has the highest literate level in Nigeria, the best Universities and also the smartest people.

Our people making it big in the world is directly a good representation, that a large percentage of us has the ability and resources than other region with little rep in Nigeria to actually make it in Life.

You claim youd have wisdom, but with America' s population you are comparing her to countries who don't have half of her population. You lack sense and wisdom. Its obvious

chigator2:
Will the Yorubanization of Lagos add one naira to the pocket of every Yoruba person in Lagos. No...

Instead, we have your aged Fathers in Ladipo crying and begging for "UN" to come to their aid that foreigners are threatening to buy them out. LoL. Clownish set of people.
No wonder Yoruba youths are now prone to thuggery, fraud, rituals and other crimes more now than ever before.

You better find food to chop before coming to drag Lagos with anybody or group of persons because most of those in Lagos don't give an F about that lagos place, na to make money, flex and go back home when due.
If you spend time on trivial issues like these, outsiders for don pack all the money for Lagos in Ghana must go, comot by December. Shine your eyes.

Why he con dey pain you say Lagos na Yoruba Land if he no add money to my pocket. You Osu have problems.

babasolution:
Again am sorry to say this,I know it's heartfelt, I don't mean to be invasive but the truth is that there's no Yoruba LAGOS. The Yoruba did not build Lagos in any way shape or form so cannot claim to own LAGOS. The builders of Lagos is all Nigerians, even northerners have a large stake to LAGOS probably more so than even the Yorubas themselves.

Eg Apapa-oshodi road is being built by dangote,can the Yorubas then claim to own that road?that's breach of trust .Lagos was built by Nigeria on trust,the Yoruba can never ever claim to own LAGOS,if it gets to that point Lagos will be destroyed and majority of the Yorubas will return back to their villages.

You need to check the real estate business in Lagos and see who dominates the industry. You really need too. Maybe you will change your mind

Dude be sorry for your self. This is where we say the fact.

Personally, I can't believe someone will say something as dumb as this. But I will excuse your Ignorance. Lagos was built by the Yorubas. Check the civilian governments that has been ruling Lagos since the the time of Jakande are they not Yorubas. Dangote has an Industry running in Lagos so it is expected of him to pay his quota, it does not make him special in any way, he is doing it because he enjoys the large economy of Lagos the Yorubas had built over the years before he came there.

Apart from the foreign investment brought in by mostly Yoruba people, the highest contributor to National treasury of Lagos are the Yorubas. Lagos built Nigeria.

Most major companies in Lagos contributing to the states development and resources are owned by Yourbas take Glo, honey well, GTB, Punch.

You are laying claim to a dream man, Yoruba is already a compulsory Language in every school in Lagos, what else is too do. We are already feeding your children our culture, you can either cry on it or choke on it. If you want to scatter it, I will advice you start now because Yorubanization of Lagos has already been achieved.

Igbos contribute the least to Lagos, this can by backed by the fact that the VAT generated in OYO alone accounts for all the total VATs gotten in the southeast.

Even the influential popular foreigners in Lagos cannot deny it Yorubaness, its always the nonentities with nothing to offer.

babasolution:
Am sorry to say this but Lagos is not and will never be yorubaland. It's sole owned by Nigeria.Majority of the Yorubas in Lagos are migrants like everyone else.

Everyone as equal stake in Lagos.You Yorubas will realise sooner than later. It's either you live it that way,or you loose the little you have in LAGOS.

No Yoruba is a Migrant in Yoruba Land. You will soon see, you remember the PVC nonsense and your tears. The hurricane coming for the erring ones among you will take you back to behind the river Niger where you came from.

Our Heritage, culture and way life have already been embedded in the cities core as it own like all other Yoruba cities, its either you respect them or you get the hell out.

If you are looking for a city you co own, go to Abuja. This is our city and you will play by our rules because we rule you.

You remember OSO Abiola, that time you ran away back to your dead regions. It was only the true son of the soils, the Yorubas that stayed behind. This time you wont be allowed to come back.

Funny man. NNPP is a stronger force. Only online trolls with multiple accounts and celebrities who are looking for the orgasm and attention of the endsars experience support the him.

Lol, he go soon clear

babasolution:
Yorubas do not own LAGOS,it's like saying Abuja is owned by gwari.

LAGOS of today,is on Yoruba,ijaw Benin land however it's not owned by these tribes.

LAGOS is owned by Nigeria.just like Abuja is owned by Nigeria not any tribe.

LAGOS is a no mans land.
It will remain so forever

Lagos has never been No mans Land. There are early settlers "The Yoruba" unless you kill them off, you will always be a visitor/refugee. Go to Abuja.

The capital then was just 20% of Lagos. The present Lagos is Yoruba to the core. From the Governor to the kings. WE ARE ALL YORUBA. That is why we make your children learn our language in our schools because it is our Kingdom.

You guys should stop entertaining these bait type arguments. Leave your one liner knockout and bounce.

Anambra ministry of finance currently owns 4.7% of AB Inbev, making Anambra the 2nd largest shareholder. The value of those shares based on AB Inbev market cap is currently around $100M. It's clearly started on their website.

Ignore these people.

Anambra state ministry of finance does not own 4.7% of AB Inbev you ding bat. Anambra owns 4.7% of International brewries. AB Inbev is also a co owner of International brewries, two of her subsidiaries own the Largest shares.
