I honestly stopped at the 1st paragraph, this is total rubbish, if PMB fails, let vote him out and send him back to daura, if a lettered man like Dele can write this? And at a point he wanted to be Nigeria President? He is a disgrace. Tinubu, Atiku, kwankwanso, saraki, ekweremadu, El rufai, Fashola, shall never smell the seat of president In 2019, including Gej.

Ole oshi, goan sit down oga momdu.

LordAdam:
I wrote two things you probably didn't take to heart.

omoyowa:
Julius Caesar never betrayed his people...

unlike the betrayer called Afonja

get your history right, go and read, Afonja never betrayed his people, he rebelled against the Alaafin who told him to go and sack a town under his domain, he couldn't go because a curse has being laid on anyone that sacks the town, he told the king but The king refused and he rebelled, if you don't know history go back

asha80:
ikot ekpene has an urban centre

is that all? you want to compare that to other urban areas in River state apart from PH? kwantinue.

Cletus77:
akwa wetin and anamb wetin?

and what exactly is your point? please, Op said state not city, apart from Uyo tell me any other plron Akwa Ibom that is Urban.

caracas:
For this poo u typed u are the Most ignorant afonja on Planet earth.
Hian ,americans dont travel ,lol
Ignorance of the highest order .

oh jeez nah am not just the most ignorant afonja am actually the proud Afonja the great, now go back and read slowly my previous post, comprehension seems to be your problem.

omoyowa:
hahahahahaha.....where is UI in porthacourt..

my apologies sir, i tot you said they don't load ibadan to ph not vice versa.

That said, we all know that Americans hardly leave their land to other places, same with south Africans, Sw ppl hardly leave their domain to that side, enuf said, think deep why.

omoyowa:
more of afonja cities

afonja the great here, let me help you, the name Afonja is as great as the name Julius Caesar in Yoruba land so Quit it, its not derogatory to us, so thank you, we are proud Afonjas unlike people without history, maybe they were apes or savages.
That said now to the topic, i won't mince words, there is vast poverty in Oyo state more than most states in the se except Ebonyi, av being there, all of the states in the south East, but Non is as urban as Oyo state,not to even talk if Ogun state.

Waiting for u, loading slowly.

omoyowa:
Guy, there is no Ibadan bus station in porthacourt..
you people naturally like to argue trash..
I was born and brought up in porthacourt...
I have not come across a bus loading only Ibadan..
they pick Lagos and and all SW passenger together in a bus...
Minus Lagos.,there is no bus loading a single cities or brown roof town from porthacout

There is infront of UI

scholes0:
Osun has Osogbo, Ede, Ilesha, Ile-Ife, Iwo.

List the ities in Kano state, make we hear.

lol In a way u av a point but In another you don't,the op said states that are most urbanized, those places you mentioned are towns not cities, even Oshogbo just dey come up now.

Btw am Yoruba and av being to all the places you mentioned.

Kfed4ril:
Lie.

your opinion

kolaaderin:
he is very right, osun might not have mega cities as big as Ibadan and kano, but surely boast of numerous average sized cities, EDE, IFE, ILESHA, OSOGBO, IWO, and IKIRUN. most can boast of 2 local government coverage.

oga am Yoruba, those places you mentioned are not cities av being there before, they are towns.

Klinee:
Ok can you mention a place that u have been in Anambra, then explain how the place is compared to those area u assumed to be more urbanised.

av being to onitsha, nnewi, and some other parts of Anambra state, you can't compare it with PH and bonny Island, never, all the companies in nnewi are not up to the nnlg in bonny #fact.

Not to talk about other parts of Rivers state.

scholes0:
A very Honest Submission.

In My Opinion,

1- Lagos
2/3- Ogun
2/3- F.C.T
4 - Oyo
5 - Rivers
6 - Anambra
7 - Osun
8 - Delta
9 - Akwa Ibom
10 - Kaduna

In general SE states tend to be denser settled that Western states, but is mostly comprised of village type settlement, but Western states are much more urbanized. with bigger urban centres acting as Urban nodes.
On overall population SW states seem to have an edge and more populated n average, especially since Ogun, Lagos and Oyo have all zoomed off since the last population census.

Three notoriously popular One city states in the South are Edo (benin), Imo (Owerri) and Cross River (Calabar) ---- lol
In the North- Kano is notorious for being another one city state.

osun before kaduna? and kano? where do you guys get all these from? I give up.

Klinee:
Then why commenting if u have not been to any of those States mentioned or is it that you did not understand the word "URBANISED". I think Anambra should come after Lagos as most urbanised States.

can you read at all? i guess You can, little patience will do, now go baco to my previous post, you will clearly see where i said i have been to the states i mentioned, unless you are confusing the word Industrialized/commercial with the word Urban.

Klinee:
My friend Shut up!! how can river state be ahead of Anambra
? you even mention oyo and ogun . nawa for u ooooo

my friend av being to Anambra state Rivers, Oyo and Ogun, unless you don't know what the word Urban means, don't quote me if You can't be civil and stop acting like village nollywood actors, that can't make a point without saying shut up.

Ovokoo:
PH is a city and not a state. We're looking at the entire state and not just one city in the state.

okay, River state then should be ahead of Akwa Ibom and Anambra. OYO and Ogun state are more Urban that Akwa Ibom and Anambra.

You all are very wrong, Op gaining Independent simply means under your own Authority and sovereignty, you make your rules and your laws without any outside or foreign approval.

To be a Republic simply means all citizens of the Nation are equal and can get into any position they wish to, before Nigeria became a republic we had the house of chiefs, just like they have the house of lords in the Uk, you cannot get into the House of chief if you are not born royal, that means we all are not equal.

Azikwe was the 1st Governor General representing the Crown of England.

Delta and Anambra before PH, wow, no kano no Enugu.

ahaika23:
Of a truth, the Jonathan administration brought out the real beings the S/werners are made of. Nothing is far from the truth, they cannot be trusted with any form of alliance or pact. Do so at your peril. Jonathan's Administration brought so much prosperity to them, revived the death-trap (Benin-Ore road) their loved brother (OBJ) ignored for eight ( good years, gave thousands of yoruba graduates millions to setup businesses (YouWin) and so many more I cannot say. They called him ogogoro drunkard, called his wife shepopotemus, and abused him with the worst adjectives ever. You guys need to remain with the North, that's where you belong.

when Yorubas voted for Jonathan In 2011 they didn't hate him abi? when Yorubas were at the forefront of protest in Lagos, Ibadan and Abuja against Turai Yaradua and her cabals, they didn't hate Gej then abi?

he got into government, he neglect the Sw for 5 years and half, you mentioned unilag to be named mko university and the people reminded the president that the name Lagos, the institution Unilag is greater than the name Abiola to them even though they love him, there are many institutions or buildings in Abuja he could have choose, the race course in Lagos was named after tafawa balewa, why not name the eagle square mko's square, who will complain, the man died president elect.


Benin Ore road, lolz am so sure 80% of Sw people have never been on that road, I can guarantee you 60% of people from Se and Ss use that road.

You mean thousands got you win grants? Wow where are they? how many more thousands have they employed now?

with oil selling at record high for more than 4years we have not to show for it. Substandard airport terminals that are not better than train stations in some countries, Daily they report money stolen by Gej administration and yet you still clamour for him, what a shame, Nigeria would be on eBay by now, if Pmb is incompetent he will be sent back to Daura, Tinubu and Atiku will never smell the Presidency, they will be worse off.

OP i don't know why you lots keep on disgracing other Yorubas in the face off of Tinubu and Pmb administration, we should be the bride, we and the middle belt are the deciding factor in Nigeria politics for now, asking others to join us is not necessarry, what we should prepare for is to ask any of our house of reps, senator and state members if they are ready for true federalsm, resource control, if not we are not voting them in, which ever party wins at the center will bear less influence on you once power is reduced at the center.

If the south Cannot see the reason to unite since 1956 do you think they will now? if the middle belt cannot see reason to dis unite the one North lie that have never served them well, its their own headache, If Igbos won't stop calling Yorubas betrayals for no agreement or pacts, do you think the south Will unite?
its okay for an Igbo man Zik to be President (ceremonial) to Balewa North, Ekwueme vice to Shagari, no betrayal abi but When Awo was finance minister to Gowon and now Osinbanjo vice to PMB Yorubas are betrayals. Make una continue ooo.

LordAdam:
I'm not going to pretend I do not get your point. I get it. I think GEJ even got more than 30% of the votes in SW during the 2015 elections.

But, you have to understand the bloc thing.

All of the SS supported GEJ, but a significant part of Edo state voted against him. That does not change the fact that the region supported GEJ. Same thing in SE. A significant part of Imo voted against him. The North did not vote overwhelmingly for Buhari. States like Taraba voted well for GEJ.

So, it is pointless to cherry pick.

The SW as a bloc supported and voted for Buhari. That is how the SS sees it. Even when Afenifere and OPC wanted the opposite, Tinubu delivered the SW. The media machinery was rolled out, and the votes were counted.

And let me give you a peace of my mind. You do not insult GEJ on the same post and try to court the favor of SS. OBJ is still respected in the SS despite his own flagrant abuse of power and corruption. Remember he spent $15b on power and only added 1000 MW to the national grid.

So, you dare not say GEJ is incompetent, and try to justify the actions of Tinubu and his cronies. Such insolence!

In fact, I'm done talking to you.

Let's all wait until 2019. We are not big talkers in the SS. The king of Nembe took out a colonial outpost, kidnapped the whites there, and ate them to register his displeasure against the crown during the colonial era. The Oba of Benin beheaded whites who were unfortunate to visit at the wrong time. Those kings lost their thrones, but it should give you an idea of the people living in the SS.

We're cold, calculating, ruthless people. It's why we're at war with the FG and still negotiating at the same time. So, I'm waiting to see how the SW would size up to the Northern hegemony.

Nobody is voting out Buhari in 2019 if he wants to remain there. He is a Fulani general, not an understanding SSner.

Don't think so? Well, Tinubu stayed in Nigeria for the most of GEJ's 6 years tenure. Where the mess is the sissy now? Bloody coward is holed up in London. Can't even react to a fellow party member threatening to impregnate his wife. His words don't hold weight in a party he founded.

The SW and Tinubu has been used, dumped, and destroyed. And you guys are scampering looking for allies when there are none. We in the SS are waiting for the right time to inflict the fatal blow.

If the SW wants to vote Buhari out by themselves, they can try. You guys should just watch your backs going into this head-on with the North.

Fix your mistake yourselves. You guys are part of the 97% remember!

The SS never forgives, we never forget.

-Lord

i hate people who distort history with utmost passion, its very convenient for you to call the North the "North" forgetting the North has Nw, Ne and Nc the Equivalent of Ss here in the South, your bile hate for Tinubu a man I don't give two F about anyway is controlling the Sw is you swimming in a pool of ignorance, Pmb won Sw vote by just 200k, whatever non sense you ve being writing is insulting to Yorubas that voted for Gej, millions of them, was tinubu able to control them? what about the Nc people are you going to get rid of them too because of the fact that they voted Pmb? Gej won in Ekiti i hope you remember that, are they not in the sw? just like you pointed out people from Edo and Imo.

Tinubu and his cohorts should go and settle themselves,
Holding forts for bunch of criminals calling themselves politicians is what I can't stand.

If you want to know Tinubu source of wealth its very easy, 5% to Alpha beta, he took advantage of the laws, he didn't break it, the loop holes, so If his wealth amazes you, thats it, its not rocket science.

Anyone in the center from anywhere in the country will be voted out if found incompetent and corrupt, enough of tribal ethnic sentiment,
All the fight you are fighting for Gej should rather be used to get resource control, you are telling me about a king eating a white man, cannibalsm.

LordAdam:
Yes, it is because of GEJ!

OBJ is his kinsman, so the SW can settle whatever issues they have. In fact, at the moment, it does not seem like they have any issue because they are in the same political camp.

Most Yorubas follow Tinubu. And it is evident that he has respect in SW evnen in the camps of his political opponents. He even has his admirers in the SS (majorly Edo).

A lot of people looted state treasury between 1999 and 2015 and did not end up in jail. So Tinubu is not special in that sense.

We are not hypocrites in the SS.

We simply cannot in good conscience say people like Igbinedion or Odilli are not corrupt and say only Tinubu is corrupt. We don't roll like that. The only people who do that are the Yorubas. Anyone in your good book is a saint, those not in it are demons.

And politics shouldn't always be about nailing people. It's that vindictive type of politics that makes politics a do-or-die affair. And we in the SS are more mature than that.

The fact is that PDP had left people like Tinubu, Atiku, Buhari, and even IBB to stay in national limelight without seeking to clip their wings in a major way like APC is doing to Tinubu and may soon do to Atiku.

Tinubu was not satisfied with his regional empire that was guaranteed under GEJ and PDP. He was greedy (or ambitious, depending on how you look at it), and he sided with the option that made more political sense to him in 2015. He did that while acknowledging the risk of the blow back from other Southern regions and DID NOT CARE.

He owes us no apology for his decision. And so we owe him no apology for the decision we are making.

The SW knew what they were getting into when they sided with the North against the SS/SE. It's politics. So you guys should be willing to bear the consequences as well. Don't try to flip the issue on us. If the North hadn't clipped the wings of Tinubu. There would be no talk about Southern Unity today. Sometimes, you guys behave like you are dealing with foo.ls.

The SS already has oil. We feed the nation. We've already had 6 years in the presidency and 2 years in the Vice Presidency. History wouldn't change. We were in charge during one of Nigeria's most prosperous times. We don't want secession, and already have a degree of resource control (13%). We have NDDC and a specific Ministry. When we have our complaints, we have the ears of the C-in-C, whether he is a Fulani, Yoruba, or even from outer space.

Therefore, the SW is useless to the SS, because there is nothing they can do for us that wouldn't benefit them too.

No matter how educated you are, you simply cannot forgive a person who destroys your family name in front of your enemy.

Tinubu is a moi moi case (maybe he feels because the Afenifere are willing to save his ass, we would too). The worst is yet to come. Awolowo and MKO that had the blessing of the SS were destroyed politically by the North and nothing happened. It's now Tinubu who is cursed in every other region (NE, NW, NC, SS, and SE) that we'd lose sleep over.

You guys are sophisticated. Win your battle alone and share the spoils by yourself. We are not interested.

-Lord

i for one am not fighting for tinubu, you guys still don't get the point, apart from Lagos and Osun state he has no influence more than other politicians, Amosun with or without Tinubu would have won Ogun state, same with Ajimobi, the people were fed up with Daniel And Oshoba, and Akala was not an option for the people of Oyo, get all that right.
That said Gej, people loot under him, same with Obj and Yaradua, Tinubu was their adversary
Thats sw/ss/nw, so What's your point exactly? putting the whole sw against the ss/se all because they got rid of an incompetent Gej, if PMB fails we vote him out again, I don't think Tinubu will smell presidency cos Of his political enemies, joining all Sw people together is very myopic.

LordAdam:
Well, the SE can pull out, but the SS never forgets.

APC and PDP will field Northern candidates. Only PDP will field a SE VP. It has already been zoned.

Tinubu will start a new party and we're all very sure that his presidential candidate will not be from the SE.

So pending any new arrangement, our choice has already been made for us. And Tinubu just drew a huge bullseye on his ass.

And we're waiting patiently for 2019 to take aim.

We forgave OBJ's sins against Alams and Ibori because of GEJ's elevation.

Tinubu's day of reckoning is coming. And all of this that is happening to him is just child's play. The worst is yet to come.

-Lord

what exactly did tinubu do against ss people? or is it because of Gej? he did same to Obj and Yaradua, so whats the fuss about? and why do you guys think Yorubas follow him?nah they don't on the contrary, If he looted the state treasurery and non of Obj Yaradua and Gej could nail him, shame on them.

Sell those refineries abeg, they will never work no matter how much you pump inside it. Some people feed fat on it not working and nothing you can do to stop it but to just sell. I propose this formula in the sales:

General Public (through shares) 20%
State Government (Host) 20%
Private investor (Operator) 40%
Local Community where the refinery is located 5%
FG 15%

With the private investor not having up to 100%, they will not be able to do asset stripping like global infrastructure did at ajaokuta steel

Useless Minister of darkness Sha you were bashing Jonathan's Government now it's your oga that's @ the helm of affair No cause for alarm I guess Bunch of lunatics.


Walai everytyn for the nation self dey annoying ah swear.Bullshit

Jonathan Is the cause of it, he sold it to his friends, Ayeni and co,same dude that donated 2billion naira for his campaign, that said, ikeja disco billed me 14500 and 16k for the month of August and September respectively, meanwhile our transformer was faulty for the two months, how do you explain that, they were unaware, meter is there, and they still do estimated billing, is it rocket science to install meters? Why can't they take the meter readings like they use to do in the days of old NEPA? when u bring d bill for last month the marketer will take the reading and calculate your Bill for the day as against the last day of reading, thats not hard to do.
NERC and Fashola are failing on this one, this diacos are robbing Nigerians blind, how can I be paying such amount for darkness, even if there is 24 power, my bill cannot be up to 8k per month.
Ikeja disco is the no 1 culprit, big thieves, this does not happen anywhere in the world,
Fashola should resign if he cannot turn things around, to be a minister of power is not by force,
Btw am a fan of his but I don't think he is capable in that position, am a lere boy just like him, hang out in Itolo too if you know what i mean.
