Okorocha is number 1 person. I hate him buh na only him fit win

I don't consider him.

Jman06:
Says who

I prefer Rochas Okorocha to all the people on that list except Peter Obi.

Meanwhile, Orji Uzor Kalu is the worst candidate on that list! The gods forbid that he becomes president of Nigeria!

Okorocha didn't hid his greed and disregard for Imo people, I'm talking as an Igbo man. Nigerians may love him more, but he's not regarded down East.

ahiboilandgas:
God forbid where is kanu the true leader of ipob ......the North will vote for tinubu or osinbajo and Zulum

Tinu what? Slaves are slaves.

AsomughaChuks05:
You omitted Rochas Okorocha. He stands the best chance among those you listed.

Okorocha is hated by his own people.

Awolowo practically built a City out of a Jungle

Roads, Schools , Hospitals, Industrial Estates , Markets, Colleges , Factories ,Agricultural Settlements, Resisential Areas including GRA Ikeja, Shopping Centres he put light and Water there and so much more,

Hahahahah... All these stuffs he did, you're saying is non-existent, right? I've asked for names and location.

Hospitals and Schools built by missions are still in exist in various parts of Nigeria, where are Awolowo's own? Wait... Other regions didn't make roads while Awolowo was doing that?

Christistruth00:
Awolowo erected almost everything except what the Federal Government Laws didn’t allow him to.

It was Awolowos Vision for the Western Region that made Lagos an Economic Powerhouse

The British only saw Lagos Island as an administrative Capital

Sir... What and what did he erect? Where are there?

Christistruth00:
No sir Awolowo built all of Ikeja including it’s 3 industrial Estates and much of Today’s Lagos out of a very dense Jungle where there were hardly any roads.

He built it as the Capital of the Western Region


Awolowo had very big dreams , as Odia Ofeimun said Singapore was very small compared to what Awolowo was aiming at for his People.

It might be hard to believe now but Awolowo was trying to overtake Europe and he was very Serious about it.

I'm enjoying your line of argument, but the truth remains that in reality he didn't erect the infrastructures, a road map without investment isn't enough.

Almost everybody can dream, but funding any project is the 95% the life.

Christistruth00:
Sir, Awolowo built all Ikeja including the Industial estates out of a thick Jungle where Gorillas, Leopards and Elephants we’re still being sighted regularly.

With all humility , he out performed the British Colonial Masters.

It was because of achievements like that , that his People are still in love with him today though he passed on more than thirty years ago.

Laughing... It's okay. What did he build in the Ikeja Industrial Estate? He mapped out land that's all. If there's anything more he did kindly state that.

Two, what makes Ikeja or Lagos attractive is the presence of infrastructures like
Airports
Military Installations
Government House
Bridges
Railway
All these things were built by FG.

Awolowo is simple famous in the West for giving free education to Westerners and not infrastructures.

thebosstrevor1:
You can not force us to believe your statement.

It is not by force.

You blame fulani for the prison breakout

When we all know IPOB terrorists are behind it.

Look at who's talking, the house of Boko Haram,ISWAP, Fulani Herdsmen and Bandits.

Very Good and apt reply to the charming rascal of a kid.
He was one of those singing thr praise of the animal call Cownu from inception, forgetting that we reasonable igbos still have mothers, grandmothers, families etc in the villages.
We told them to be careful what they wish for.
Here you have it.

Your words are so deep "Festacman".
ThatFairGuy1 (sorry for the typo, we see you and festacman as two of the few reasonable and sensible members we have on this forum, hence the typo ) Gbefun tins!

Is Oba of Igangan back from Benin Republic IDP camp?

Christistruth00:
No sir the Map of Awolowo Western Region obtained from the US Library of Congress was from 1962

I have attached the description sir

Sir... Going by the above information, kindly show me names of infrastructures built by Awolowo that's still standing till today that made Lagos what it's today.


I wish to make one thing clear, that virtually all infrastructures that's outstanding today in Lagos were built by The Federal Government of Nigeria.

Christistruth00:
On the day that Nigeria gained independence October 1 1960 Awolowo was the Premier of the Western Region that Map of the Western Region was from 1962.

Even with your date, the map reads 1956 or 1956.

Christistruth00:
Brotherly... The above map dates 1958, while Awolowo's administration was from 1967–1971. Secondly the map didn't state airports, seaport and all that.

Thirdly, if the Yorubas were as advanced as you're preaching, they would have had their airports, seaports without colonial masters building it using resources from their land, in fact that's same thing they did all over Africa.














This is the 1962 Map of the Western Region from the US Library of Congress

Lagos is where the dot is.

The British Colonial Government only leased Apapa from the Oluwa Awori Yoruba Family , Just like the US leased its Military bases in Germany and Japan.


If you examine the map carefully and very truthful you will see that more than 95% of today’s Lagos State was in Awolowo’s Western Region

Almost all of what is Metropolitan Lagos today was actually in the Ikeja Administrative department of the Western Region.


Lagos Island was the only exception.

The Last Photo is the 1958 Map of Lagos. Which was only Lagos Island as of that time .



I come in Peace.

God bless Lagos and Nigeria

AdekunleScience:
Excellent counter. I'll just like to add that when the seaport was built IBOs where still running around in the bush without clothes.

I want to teach you what education is all about.

"Only Island was part of FCT, mainland was Western region and then Lagos State".

Sir... You claim Mainland wasn't part of the FCT, how come Federal Government built Nigerian Ports Authority (NPA) in 1954 in Apapa?
Murtala Muhammed International Airport (MMIA) was built in Mainland in Ikeja, Lagos in 1979?
One more question... 81st Division Lagos, was the home of the President then, built by FG.


"Lagos is getting more people because of its industries and large market, Awolowo built Ikeja industrial estate. His party, UPN built most industrial estates in Lagos"

Abuja couldn't boost of ₦2 billion yearly as revenue till it became Federal Capital, and Federal infrastructures were built, investors, companies and Foreign Mission moved in naturally, it didn't take any effort of the indigenous people, but Federal Government injecting funds into Abuja, so don't make it look like the indigenous Westerners funded it.
Oga it's natural that infrastructures attracts companies and businesses.

As regarding housing units, Sir... Almost every state has state housing unit, but the important question is, what's the ratio of unit over her population, does it cushion the housing deficit of the state.

I challenge you to state any Awolowo or Jakande Housing Unit that's up to 50,000 while Lagos is battling super housing deficit

seanet02:
Lagos ports[sea and air0 were built by the british from taxes collected from Yoruba people

The present Lagos port in Nigeria was built by Federal Government, I'm not talking of makeshift raft port.

What's the name of the Airport, kindly show us the pictures... Because Lufthansa Air was established since in 1926,and British Airways was found in 1974.

I won't be surprise to hear you had Airport in 1823. These people had pictures and it still runs till date.

mekaboy:
How will the investment flourish with insecurity? When the bombing starts, will you be the one to direct the air strikes?

Kindly revert to your original comment, you said "foreign investors", I don't need to convince you, with all the killings in Fagba and Ibadan, which is far compared to any recent crisis in the East, has it stop businesses?

mekaboy:
Good. Guess what? Foreign investment will move away from the region. More unemployment, more insecurity, more poverty, more violence and deaths.

Very soon all international flight will be diverted to SW, the airlines give security as an excuse. All airports in the east will remain empty.

Then kanu and his followers will blame yoruba media and fulani army for attacks.

Congrats Nnamdi Kanu the scammer, Biafra land is looking good.

All hail Biafra

It shows how unexposed you're. The Igbos owns 95% of Investment in the East.

That name isn't Igbo, sorry to disappoint you.

Monogamy:


The attack was then we'll organized.

By the time the army start to kill the unknown men hope some people won't shout genocide

Arewa... They should start with Bandits, Boko Haram as well as Herdsmen. How many people have died on the account of ESN?

Beaten by who, you? You will do well as a comedian.

Thanks for the career gift.

Oyiboman69:
Foolish people... They thought Nigeria has a working system that will pardon them for their insensitivity...

Pardon... Hope Fulanis have pardoned your family in IDP camp in Benin Republic to come back?

Nbotee:
The whole Prison Break was a smokescreen jare... This Prison is quite close to a major road and the government House. I'm still trying to understand how people gathered few minutes away from the State Government House singing solidarity songs for over 30mins and the security at the Government House didn't put a call across to the Military formation in Obinze while the guys operated for over 3hrs. Now they also went to the Police headquarters to attack dem and burned thw building. Did they allow the Police to all walk away from the building before setting it ablaze considering their weren't any casualties on either sides....

If truly ESN is responsible, then... They won't kill people, Southern Nigeria aren't blood thirsty, except when it's full blown fight. I think they went there, without resistance why kill? It doesn't make sense.

Lol .
Those are good prisoners that refused to be foolish and stupid like some people cownu have brainwashed their empty brains.
They rather do time for their crimes and come out a new man, than coming out to join some brainwashed swines (the main reasons cownu asked his swines to jailbreak
in the first place, he is looking for recruits) and end up losing their lives less than 34 days!


Meanwhile,
Good to see some of the reasonable, sensible and honest members of this noble forum speaking out.

Nothing much to add than to say the evil that will destroy that animal call cownu brainwashing some people to their death all the way from where the porn.star coward ran to is so close unto him.
It's only a matter of time, that the pig will perish.

(If you are one of the brainwashed tins he called pigs and dogs, kindly quote this post, let sane Nairalanders know you )

I won't be surprise to know you're writing from Benin Republic IDP camp were your people are seeking asylum.

Joke on you.

When are you gonna reclaim Kwara State, I guess you've done the give away to Fulani, right?

Factshunter:
According who?

Ask Wakili the old man that killed more Yorubas in Igangan still the OPC members that Arrest him where also arraign for Murder.

Factshunter:
My people, oh you mean, the yewa people who are still alive,kicking and eating pounded yam unlike those in Ebonyi who are presently being raped while the able men were killed at will and other fled with their yam legs?

Killings is a daily routine in the West, ask Wakili. I wish you the best take more people to Benin to join those eating pounded Yam, the joke is on you.

ivolt:
Ipob are kind of dense.
You want to rope everyone into your terrorist activity?
It won't work. Don't even attempt to stage an attack in other regions to show they are with you.
It won't end well.

Did IPOB involve you when your mothers and fathers run on their heels for asylum in Benin?
