You were making sense before until you tried to reduce your argument by saying it’s Imo people that are against Anioma state. That’s fallacy. You people don’t even understand what they’re trying to do to with that devilish proposal. It’s worse than what they did after the civil war by removing Obigbo from Abia and carving out oil communities from Imo into Rivers State. Look at that map again. They’re planning to remove Ohaji, Egbema and Oguta from Imo state/SE and put them in SS. These areas have the largest gas deposits in Africa! The same wicked Yoruba man contracted by Tinubu to do this proposal added parts of Kwara and Edo into SW but they refused to add Anioma and parts of Rivers into SE, instead they decided to reduce us further and even remove our most important oil and gas bearing areas like they did after the war. This evil proposal is enough to cause outrage but Igbos are even keeping quiet. If we keep quiet, they will carry it out and in a few years time, people in those areas will tell you they’re not Igbos but SS. Let’s fight this evil and stop chasing shadows. Ohanaeze, SE senators and representatives should immediately condemn that proposal and demand for Anioms state. Yorubas have proven they’re our worse enemies than even North. ariesbull: |
Ofodirinwa:It’s only Igbos that can see through Yoruba “sense”, other Nigerians are just gullible. That’s why Tinubu keeps pushing his tribal agenda against Igbos. Tinubu wants Lagos to be the alpha and omega in Nigeria while he reduces the viability of every other region. They built Lekki port, Apapa and Tin Can are also there in Lagos. They now realized that once regionalism kicks in, SS ports will become viable and Lagos ports won’t be used much again. So, he came up with a “genius “ idea of coastal road. Render all SS ports incapable of receiving big ships while only Lagos ports can!!! He is also proposing Sokoto to Lagos road. Kano to Lagos railway is also completed with standard guage but P.H railway to the hinterland doesn’t get attention. The British wasn’t stupid when they built both Lagos and P.H railways to connect upland regions. Same Tinubu is moving government ministries from Abuja to Lagos. He wants every part of Nigeria to rely on Lagos. A country of 200 million relying on one city?? ![]() |
JagabanB:Igbos have proven over and over again to be smarter and more sensible than you guys. Igbos supported the best candidates that ended up being the best presidents since 1999, namely Obasanjo, Yaradua and Jonathan. Yorubas supported the worst candidates that ruined Nigeria, namely Buhari and Tinubu. This road is nothing but a foolish idea driven by corruption, bigotry and selfishness. If Tinubu wants to help the SS, he would have ensured that East-West road is completed with only a fraction of the money they budgeted for this corruption road. But look at how terrible East-West road is, while he is busy deceiving gullible people with this so-called coastal road. |
NaMe4:But it started from Lagos city, only to bypass important cities/state capitals in the SS? How exactly is this road going to be more beneficial than East-West road that is very bad and abandoned? At least, East-West road connected cities. Can you name the type of investments the coastal road will bring and to which towns exactly? Are you aware that this road will effectively make several ports in the SS worthless including Warri and P.H? Yet the road won’t affect the ports in Lagos?? Can’t you see what Tinubu is doing here? Render SS ports incapable of receiving big ships so that Lagos ports will be the one receiving them while only small ships comes to SS? Anyways people that don’t think critically always end up being exploited and cheated. |
StreetFight:Lol, Yorubas are the ones in Saudi Arabia prisons. Many are being arrested everyday trying to bring drugs to Saudi Arabia and several have been killed already. For every single Igbo person you can show that was arrested for drugs in Saudi Arabia, I will show you 5 Yorubas arrested. Several of your people were even caught with drugs days ago trying to enter Mecca with the pretense of going for Hajj. I hope you won’t run away as usual, remember the odds are in your favour: 5 to 1😂 |
seunmsg:You should be crying for your people for allowing a drug lord to ruin their reputation. Everyone now see you people as a tribe of bigots. Lol, having no shame is very shameful. |
BigkokoRep:😂😂😂😂😂 |
hmohammed:Lol, this one is hiding as fake Aboki to throw shades. All the real abokis don abandon Tinubu since, only a few paid ones are left. By the way, which North are you referring to? I hope it’s not Northern Nigeria because it’s currently the worst geographical area in the world today. A completely failed region with bandits controlling territories and running their own governments. A place where hundred people could be killed today and no one will report it because it’s no longer news😆😆 Northern Nigeria with 90% extreme poverty and the poverty is still growing😆😆 Northern Nigeria that is currently worse than Somalia, Sudan, and Yemen put together ![]() Things have gotten so bad that for Islamic North that Middle belt had to hurriedly cut off links with them. Pathetic 🤡🤡 |
Nonny95:Lol, this was even a period when Nigeria was ‘paradise’ compared to the hell they’re experiencing now. Yet the same hypocritical tribalist has gone radio silent because the drug lord is his brother. Tribalism will be the end of Nigeria. It’s even worse with the other old cultist with fowl head. I used to associate old age and gray hairs with wisdom but the disgusting attitude of these men have proven that truly truly fools also grow old. |
Lol, you’re funny. Tell me other indices of governance where Ottih is lagging behind? Roads are very important and are critical to development. Abia state has already solved their electricity problem, the only state to do so in Nigeria. The international markets that used to bring shame to the state are being revolutionized. The state is doing well in education. You said his roads are expensive? Where you expecting P.H road that was already a dump site to be constructed by JB at cheap rate? Are the roads he is constructing of poor quality? The one he constructed in Umuahia was expanded and lots of buildings demolished. He paid the owners compensation which added to the road cost. Ottih has done in one year, what other governors can’t even achieve in 4 years. If only there are up to 10 governors like Ottih, Nigeria would be fast developing now. Akinpresident: |
Seunpapa65:Alex Ottih is really revolutionizing Abia State and showing others that good governance is not rocket science. However, there is one impression that is being created to dilute his great works and we need to stop it. PDP performed terribly in Abia State but same terrible governance has been witnessed in states like Ogun, Delta etc. Go to Ogun state today and you will be shocked to see how bad their roads are. Their successive governors have performed even worse than those that governed Abia State. However, the difference is that Igbos don’t tolerate bad governance. They will keep calling out and shaming such a governor until he sits up. This is unlike Yorubas. They will rather keep quiet and suffer in silence than to be embarrassed. They will rather dobale for a rogue governor openly and grumble in their bedrooms. In Ogun state, look at the revenue generated over the years and ask yourself, where did the successive governments invest them? Ikpeazu performed badly, but I can assure you, he was better than most Ogun state governors. Yoruba culture of see no evil and tell no evil, is very bad unprogressive. They really need to learn from Igbos on this aspect. |
You don’t seem to get the point. Kidnapping of Fouani is perhaps the most high profile kidnapping of a foreigner in Nigeria, in history. During the Niger Delta kidnapping era, they were only targeting mid-level oil workers. However, when a high profile international investor like Fouani is kidnapped in Lagos and the kidnappers are demanding $1.5 million dollars, it will definitely deal a devastating blow on the economy. It proves a point that no foreign investor is safe in Lagos. No 2. When you the state government wakes up one morning and extrajudicially decides to demolish an investment worth hundreds of millions, it will also send a red flag about such a place as toxic. Investors analyze a place critically before they bring in their funds and no investor will overlook those damning issues I listed. seanfer: |
One ridiculous thing about Tinubu supporters is how they like deceiving themselves by living in alternate universe that is far from reality. Firstly, your topic is faulty. You said Nigerian economists yet your post referenced the opinion of a faceless individual. Secondly, you stated that India with a population that is 6x that of Nigeria. Has less poor people in terms of percentage and is much more industrialized has just 3.5 trillion dollars economy but you and your faceless Nigerian economist believe that Nigeria should have almost half the size of their GDP Our crude oil production prior to APC years was around 2.5 mbpd today it’s less than half! Agricultural output during same period was significantly higher than today that farmers are running away from their farms. Countless number of companies have all closed down and divested from our economy and more are still leaving by the day! Despite all these tragedies that have befallen Nigeria, you believe that our GDP must have grown so magically to be 1.5 trillion dollars Go and check the actual 1.5 trillion dollar economies in the world and see if Nigeria is anywhere close to them. Continue supporting a criminal and useless drug lord like Tinubu while fantasizing about 1.5 trillion dollars economy. KnowAll: |
Two critical events that happened in Lagos recently, in quick succession, is going to deal a devastating blow to an economy that is already facing a significant decline. The first was the demolition of Landmark. A sort of aquatic fantasyland in Lagos that attracted lots of fun seekers. Unfortunately, the state government woke up one day and decided to destroy the assets estimated to be worth over $250 million dollars! However, the owner of Landmark did something remarkable. He didn’t take it calmly but rather fought back by giving it massive publicity. The news went viral both locally and internationally. It sent a red flag to other Nigerians and indeed the international community that Lagos is not a safe place to invest. When Lagos state government realized about the damaging publicity it generated, they tried to use some PR stunt to control it but it was too late. The second is the shocking news of the kidnapping of the owner of LG brand representative in Nigeria, Fouani. He was kidnapped in Lagos and the kidnappers are demanding for $1.5 million dollars as ransom!!! To put this into proper contest, throughout the time kidnapping was taking place in Niger Delta, never for once did they kidnap such high profile personality. Same with Northern Nigeria. They only targeted or were only able to kidnap average local or foreign nationals who were unfortunate to be at the wrong place, at the wrong time. But to kidnap one of the richest foreign investors living in Nigeria, in broad day light, in Lagos The worst is that all these are happening at a time when there is an unprecedented exodus of foreign and local investments from Lagos. Would this be the beginning of the end of a city that once rivaled Nairobi, Cairo, Jo’burg as the prime destinations for investors in Africa ![]() |
Bulldozer90:Two terrible news that will devastate Lagos and worsen the already bad situation is the destruction of Landmark assets and the kidnapping of the owner of LG representative company in Nigeria, Fouani. How can a high profile foreign investor like that be kidnapped in Lagos and the kidnappers are demanding $1.5 million as ransom😂😂😂 This sort of high profile kidnapping only happens in failed and highly dangerous places like Somalia coastal waters. It means that Lagos is now worse than Northern Nigeria because this high profile kidnap and ransom demand is worse than anything that ever happened in Niger delta or even North. They understand the damage the kidnap of the rich Lebanese investor will do to the image of Lagos and that’s why they’re trying to hide the news from mainstream media 😂😂 |
kettykin:It’s even worse, local middle class investors are also abandoning Lagos in droves. Any real estate company will tell you how gloomy the situation has become. Even the state government is now embarking on desperate measures such as paying pro like Chief priest to promote Lagos and condemn East while also circulating memos to Igbos in Lagos. This is just the beginning. |
West Africa will experience massive improvement in governance if Peter Obi becomes president while Traore is also president. Burkina Faso also had another legend called Thomas Sakara but unfortunately, they assasinated him in his prime. |
Every Nigerian with common sense must have noticed how Tinubu and people around him are promoting hate and bigotry. Things have gotten so bad that these people now come on stage and promote hatred against Igbos. Even Goodluck Jonathan had to raise alarm recently over this issue. Is Tinubu hoping to use bigotry to sustain himself for 4 years since he has failed in every aspect of governance? It’s still three long years away before completing his 4 years term, but unfortunately Nigeria has deteriorated so badly under him. This same promotion of bigotry on national politics led to genocide in Rwanda. Will Nigerians and the world keep quiet while Tinubu continues to push Nigeria to another genocide? |
VinnyBaba:The old bastard called Tinubu has really become a pandemic to Nigeria. This useless drug lord is busy promoting hate and bigotry in a country he is parading as president. It is this same thing they did in Rwanda that led to genocide. Tinubu is doing it in Nigeria and everyone is keeping quiet until it will snowball into something that can’t be stopped. I have not seen a more disgusting and irresponsible president in the world today like Tinubu. Look at all the fools close to him, the only thing they promote is hate and bigotry. From Wole Soyinka to Doyin Okupe and so many others. Day and night, the only thing they keep pushing is Igbo hatred. The army should kick Tinubu out now before it’s too late. The drug lord has only come to kill and destroy. |
Tinubu has really messed you guys up with his shameless promotion of bigotry and tribalism. Every damn thing today, you people from that side will reduce it to bigotry yet always quick to hypocritically claim fake accommodating. The writer of this piece that promotes Finidi George and reprimands Osihmen is Igbo man. The blog that carried it is an Igbo blog yet your brain didn’t process that because you must push your hateful agenda against a certain group. Every one of you from that side now eat and breath bigotry because a useless drug lord has seen he has nothing to offer and must use tribalism to sustain himself. Spit! Fineman2: |
chidiokay:She has all the physical attributes of Yorubas considering how dark and ugly she is. |
Notice how nobody is shaming Yorubas for this disgusting and bestial act. But let it be another group and you will see all these bigots wanking off insulting their parents. Hypocritical people. |
konfused:Lol, Bayelsa is actually the smallest state in Nigeria, even smaller than Lagos. More than half of their land is unlivable swamps and heavily polluted brackish waters. The only decent houses you will find there are government buildings, politician houses, a few small hotels and oil company quarters. The poverty level is almost on the same level with Northern Nigeria. There is a reason why the areas are among the most sparsely populated areas in Nigeria. |
nesphil:You really must be a capital dunce to compare these shanty with Eastern cities. The only city in the entire SS that can compare with Owerri is P.H. Olodo, travel and see so you won’t be disgracing yourself. Igbos are not your mates in anything. Learn from them and grow, instead of hating on them. |
At this point, I think impeaching Tinubu should really be considered. Otherwise, Nigeria will completely collapse if things continue deteriorating like this. |
SoNature:Finer than this is an understatement. These pictures are slums. Only one road with trees looks a bit decent, the rest are shanties. What sort of abysmal standards are we operating that someone will post these shanties and be proud of it? Even villages in many third world countries look better than this! How Bayelsa looks is really depressing and shows they can’t achieve anything great even if they control their oil resources 100%. It seems only Igbos have presentable cities and villages in Nigeria, the rest are an eyesore. |
ggood:Nigeria is already breaking up faster than I could have imagined. Only those who are informed knows what is happening. The North has collapsed and they’re no longer in a position to control other Nigerians. Do you think Tinubu would be acting like he is doing if it’s the North prior to 2000? Never! But a lot has happened that made the North become so weak today. The middle belt is no longer with them. Their economy is in shambles. Terrorists have taken over their region. Agriculture has been ruined. They have become very vulnerable in Nigeria today. Regionalism will come first, then full autonomy for regions then finally break up. |
koondog:Igbos in Edo are already pleading to join Anioma, particularly the Igbankes. I personally don’t want Ikwerres to reunite with Igbos. That would be an injustice for the many years they spited Igbos. Odili is not from Ikwerre, he is an Ndoni man and they align with Igbos. Igbos in Benue will naturally join the East without thinking twice. |
The Western Igbos have always wanted to be with their Eastern brothers since colonial period till date. It was Nigeria’s systematic promotion of anything anti Igbo that made some of the to begin to distance themselves. But same can’t be said of some groups in Rivers state like the Ikwere and Ogba. Those ones have always wanted our downfall and they formed a habit of using Igbos to curry favor from others. Today, as Nigeria is unraveling, they’re now confused. Aniomas sudden push to join Eastern Igbos have worsened their predicament because they’re about to become seriously isolated. The moment Aniomas join Igbos, the Ikwerre will find it very difficult. Their prayer morning and night is that Nigeria should not break up, but unfortunately, Nigeria’s faith is sealed, it’s only a matter of time. The Ijaws have never hidden their territorial expansion ambitions. It was the creation of Bayelsa state that watered it down and Ikwerre was able to reassert themselves but once Nigeria breaks up, the Ijaws will come heavily for the ikwerre and they will claim P.H. Who will stop them The Ijaws will also want to claim some parts of Akwa Ibom. The only group in the old Eastern and Midwestern region that can effectively stop the Ijaws are Igbos. So, it’s only the ethnic groups that align with Igbos in the present SS, that will be saved. So, I believe the Ibibios if they’re smart might want to have some sort of alignment with Igbos to promote state viability and also protection against Ijaws. The Ikwerres have it coming and it would be difficult for them to realign with Igbos after the decades of hate and antagonism they promoted against Igbos. A hostile country to their North and a very aggressive and expansionist neighbor to their West and South will be a total nightmare for them. I really shiver to imagine what their situation will be. Some of their people understand this situation. People like Okwukwu and that’s why he is always preaching reunification with Igbos, but unfortunately for him, the majority weren’t smart enough to understand him. As for Idomas joining Igbos, I think that won’t be a bad idea because they don’t have a history of violence, and thus won’t be a problem to Biafra. Igbos don’t need Ikwerre and neither do we even need P.H. Whatever is in P.H today, can be built and even doubled within 5 of statehood in several Igbo cities. The passionate appeal by overwhelming majority of Aniomas in joining Igbos have really changed the dynamics in the SS and also made Biafra more viable economically and security wise. |
Bulldozer90:Yes, you’re right. However, the Western Igbos have always wanted to be with their Eastern brothers since colonial period till date.

dragunov:It seems “victim” is the new word they’re now pushing from Tinubu’s farm. What has victim got to do with this? Igbos are saying they’re not interested in Lagos again and your people are begging, yet you’re saying victim. Na wa o🥱🥱🥱 |
Nigeria is gradually collapsing and smart people are realigning. The people of Anioma are staying they want their own state so they can join their brothers but outsiders are the ones trying to commit suicide. Nigeria is indeed a funny place. |
