These threads always end in tears

Lol. We told you that there is no yoruba vs Igbo fight anywhere. It's just APC strategy to win election. You poor people are always used and dumped why they still run to Igbos for economic progress of Lagos

TheManPregnant:
And so?

Lagos State has just signed MOU with E Transact for Lagos Urban planning.

Instead of fighting they will flee to Benin Republic

Valentine Obi founded E Transact in 2003.

BreconHills:
By the way etranzact is owned by an Igbo man Valentine. I met him many years ago when he was designing the Nigeria Stock Exchange website. A fine gentleman. Etranzact has not moved as fast as some companies that came long after it such as Flutterwave and Paystack ; this is almost certainly down to its shareholding structure and the fear of dilution. However kudos to them and kudos to LASG for showing that it works with the best irrespective of where they come from. Igbo people should be assured that in Lagos as in New York or London, the only enemy you can ever have is yourself.

Well done LASG

Well done etranzact

Thank you very much. I was going to say this before I saw your comment

Dapson73:
We keep observing the IPOB god movement...

Of course, if he continues agitating as if there's no existence of competence court of Law in the land....., it's just a matter of time before he would be incapacitated by DSS and charged to court for treason felony.

And Obituaries will be treated by the language they understand on the street.

Una just de run mouth anyhow. National issue is beyond your myopic tribal wishes

zeuss:
Fulani want take over from backdoor lol........
The worst democracy is better than the best dictatorship.

Yorubas are too myopic and obsessed with Igbos to see the northern game

Gavinleah:
Are you scared now. I'm prepared to buy fuel at N1000 per litre. I want to see who will cry pass between Yorubas and Igbos 🤣

10litres of fuel will be N10,000

Na so. Igbos are more rugged and resilient, yet weaklings are mocking us for voting bad people. We will know who will cry when it starts. Igbos are rooted in the informal sector, those salary earners will be worse hit

They will never learn. The political rascals that used them to win election are now extorting them

Mynd44:
This is false. It was in 1953

So no be today things nah, what's your point exactly?

We just de laugh. Trust the north at your peril. Some people refuse to learn from history

DOptical:
An act of sore losers!

However, your constant baseless allegations need to be proven by court! That's what Seun need to curb! Fake news need to be curbed

But na una open thread to cry. Una go cry tire because we never even start sef

Rupertek:
How could you declare that he lost woofully in hausa and yorubaland?
Morever, new voting demographic emerged, Atiku, Tinubu and kwakwanso shared those places you mentioned.
Why then is Tinubu desperate to manipulate the judiciary?
Why did INEC do what they did?

Thank you. Four horse race is different from two horse race.

PussyMiners:
Emeka
How did your pseudo messiah win a national election despite losing woefully in Hausa/Fulani/Kanuri and Yoruba lands??
Peter Obi is a thief that deserves to be burnt in a market square

There were four strong contestants, not two

Una claim winner, na una still cry pass. Same way it happened with Buhari. We never even started una don don wail tire.

IGBOS WERE A TOTALLY UNKNOWN ENTITY IN THIS MODERN CIVILIZATION.

Many igbos in today's Nigeria will tell you gleefully that "we have invested more in Nigeria than any other tribes/ethnic groups".
By that statement they are telling you that the Igbo man as a trader is the only person [ except perhaps his arch rival, the Fulani ] you are sure to meet in every hamlet, village, town, city and state in Nigeria.
They tell you that " we are everywhere contributing to the various local communities"
They will tell you that "we developed Lagos, Abuja and every parts of Nigeria"
They will.tell you that " we own all the buildings in Lagos and Abuja "
These statements are very common and from then the average Igbo Zionist harbours in his heart an entitlement mentality by which he makes demands of you on your space. They same demands you won't even dare to ask from him on his own space.
You hear this statement from virtually every Igbo man you meet, practically ALL of them, even the most reserved, most rational and most sensible amongst them.
They say these things freely and openly.
Peter Obi has said these things SEVERAL TIMES on National TV.
Emmanuel Iwuanyanwu said it recently before the world in Awka, Anambra State.
But it is a folly of a statement intended to hoodwink the gullible who aren't vast in history.
I will tell you some things today. Please feel free to draw me back where and when you think I got it wrong.
1. There is no part of our PRE-1914 HISTORY that is known to me which suggests in any way that the Igbos were the kinds of "Nomadic" traders they are today.

Until the European Colonial People came at the tail end of the 19th century, the IGBOS WERE A TOTALLY UNKNOWN ENTITY IN THIS MODERN CIVILIZATION. It was the appearance of the Missionaries, who came ahead of the Colonialist, which exposed the Igbos of today's South-East to the modern world and they began travelling as Missionaries outside their FOREST DWELLINGS.
Until 1914, the igbos weren't any factor of reckoning in Nigeria and infact it was ONLY THE OBONG OF CALABAR AND NOBODY ELSE who was consulted in the whole of that axis to join others in the civilized world concerning the matter of 1914 amalgamation of North and South Nigeria.

Whereas,
CENTURIES before 1914, Yoruba Traders of Iwo, Ogbomoso, Àjàsé, Egba, Ijebu etc were noted in history to have been great travellers who transacted trade deals with Hausas and Kanuri of Northern Nigeria and with the people from as far away as Timbuktu in today's Mali.
CENTURIES before 1914, Hausa and Kanuri Traders were actively dealing with the Arabs of the Middle East Asia.
CENTURIES before 1914, Yoruba Traders of Egba, Àjàsé , Ijebu, Awori lands were already in trading deals with the Europeans even before
Slavery got into the mix.

CENTURIES before 1914, the Itsekiris, Binis, Efik, Ibibios, Ijaws of Opobo [ which the Igbo now lay claim over ] were already trading with Europe and amongst other ethnic groups of today's Nigeria.

CENTURIES before 1914, the Yorubas of today's SW, Binis of today's Edo, Itshekiris of today's Delta, Efik of today's Cross River and several other ethnic groups in the South and North of today's Nigeria had FLOURISHING CIVILIZATION complete with a SOCIAL ORDER REGULATED BY MONARCHIES.

The Igbos of today's South-East [ Not the Aniomas ] were never part of that civilization but roaming wildly in the FOREST DWELLINGS.
The igbos were never mentioned in any of those history known to me that I have read.
The igbos were NEVER going about in trade missions to anywhere outside of their various hamlets where they counted their years by market days.

Those guys were just barbarians roaming about the forests with wrappers and their animal instincts.
They were NEVER the people they pretend to be today.

2. The igbos may have been trading amongst themselves in their South-East areas but they were never known to be dealing OUTSIDE of their immediate areas until much later after 1914.

3. The first set of igbos who explored other lands outside Igbo land weren't traders but mostly missionaries and civil servants

4. The phenomenon of TRADING by the igbos in SW YORUBA LAND didn't fully start until after the civil war in the 1970s.
Before 1970, majority of Igbos in Yoruba land were civil servants, office people and not many were traders.

5. The activity of TRADING AND APPRENTICESHIP SCHEME of the IGBOS is an excuse, a well oiled "UNDERGROUND RAILROAD" for the migration of their population from their landlocked areas to places like the South-West.

Trading was the "CONDUIT PIPE'" for the mass movement of their disorderly population of badly trained Youths into Yoruba land and other parts of Nigeria.
Between 1940 and Independence in 1960, the igbos had used the underground railroad of TRADING to circulate their population in Northern Nigeria. They had had great faith in the lousy statement of Azikiwe that "Nigeria was the inheritance of the igbos" so they were positioning all over the country.
At that time the SW wasn't too easy as the wave of political awareness and solidarity amongst the Yorubas was tight .
The IGBO ZIONISTS didn't start to look at the Western Region of Yorubas until after the civil when the Northeners and the Ikwerre people of today's Rivers State had dealt them blows.
They located SW and narrowed on Lagos.
It wasn't until the 1980s through the help of Obasanjo did they find their footing in Lagos
They had the ZIONIST FUNDS [ obtained most from DRUG related crimes ] to support their them as SEED CAPITAL for whatever businesses they chose and there was no way anyone could have competed with them.
With their ZIONIST FUNDS they established HUGE "MARKETS" all over the place big enough to accommodate the continuous migration of their population to achieve DEMOGRAPHIC ALTERATIONS in the lands they occupy.
6. Before the War, Igbo youths weren't coming to Lagos because they operated from the Portharcourt Ports and did most of their businesses in the East.
They completely overwhelmed the people of today's Rivers and Beyelsa state in those days and it's infact the reason of the merciless action of "abandoned property" saga in Portharcourt.
The indigenous people of Portharcourt rose and SEIZED all Igbo Properties on their land during and after the war.
Such thing didn't happen in Lagos or anywhere in the SW during and father the war. YORUBAS never did such but KEPT their properties for them even with rents accrued over three years
It is the reason that till this day the average Igbo trader feel more comfortable in the SW, 600miles from his land, than the Portharcourt which is less than 40miles to Aba.
That hospitality borne out of ignorance of the typical Igbo man is the crime of Yorubas for which we have today been robbed of sound sleep.
7. You claim you developed Lagos even when Lagos didn't invite you to develop her. Whereas, in actual sense and in reality you guys RUINED LAGOS.
Between 1983 and 1999 the MILITARY AND IGBO ZIONISTS RUINED AND STAGNATED LAGOS.
Unless you suffer memory loss or you are stupid you should be able to remember exactly what Lagos was reduced to as at 1999.
The ZIONISTS messed up our environment, overstretched our infrastructure, soiled our morality and totally brutalized our social order
But they can't know unless you told them.
These things are already happening in Abeokuta today and I will write about it in my next post.
NOTHING GOOD COMES OUT OF THE ZIONISTS WHEN THEY STAY WITH YOU BECAUSE THEIR MISSION WAS NEVER TO HELP BUT TO DESTROY AND CONQUER YOUR LAND

Aros were the greatest pre colonial traders in Nigeria

pquaver:
Obi started it what was he doing in 8years he no finish am.. Same people who said tinubu no do anything for setting lagos goin will comeback and tell us how great obi is for this.. Watch

Obi completed it while Obiano handed it Golden Tulip

Jamesbiodun:
No airport in Ogun state and Dapo Abiodun is the worse governor in the history of the state…
I really don’t know why Ogun state haven’t get a good governor since 1999

And they are insulting Abia. Watch out for Abia airport in Otti's second tenure. No SW states has been able to deliver state owned airport including almighty Lagos

SmartPolician:
To be fair, the media reports say that he was still hoping to borrow the money and it was in November 2022. The chances are that he hasn't been able to access the funds yet. That's why he hasn't been able to complete it yet.

What happened to the phantom IGR they keep chest beating with?

He got zero votes at APC primary after speaking Hausa fluently. Ameachi, Wike, etc all got ass kicked after worshipping the north. Thiefnubuu own is coming soon. Only Obasanjo played the North like ludo after uniting the south through Igbos

ANSMEDIA:
Watch the world class school same man built for his community.

Anambra state greatest asset is human development
Watch

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=JpQK0hLkotA

This is what Obi was saying. Invest in human development first

flokii:
Olofo!..
You were blind and deaf I guess when Kanu went on live broadcasts ordering IPOBs to destroy Yorubas and Yoruba properties in Lagos. Idiots.

I no blame una sha but Yorubas that allowed see finish from you lots.. Useless Afenifere they were warning then was siding with them and attacking Yoruba son. Awon akotileta ranu.

Kanu is a non State actor and already in detention

Indegenous industrialization

rockmite:
Kanuri man promoting Fulani agenda, how? Do u guys think at all?

While kanuri resisted ethnic conquest by fulanis they joined fulani in religious conquest to the South. Yorubaland is their target in fulfilling Usman Dan Fodio's dreams of dropping the Koran in the Atlantic

Bashet:
Yoruba Proforce alone is far better than your spare parts assembly innoson

So called proforce only makes military vehicles which Innoson also produces. Plus proforce is indian

ANSMEDIA:
Not just government functions

Maybe state should lobby more high profile event else it becomes a white elephant project

blacksam01:
they shld reduce the cost of hiring the ICC and allow event of entertainment reign there.. government functions dont come up now and again...

its a wasted project otherwise

The ICC is yet to attract any meaningful events

ANSMEDIA:
Soludo is doing great in road construction, he is currently dualising Unizik Junction Road to Amanuke, and constructing many roads across Anambra, indedendent power plant, industrial estate along Ukpo, flyover and road expansion in Ekwulobia, also building massive amusement Park in Agulu lake which he said will be Nigeria Diseny land, Morden bus terminals and transportation, across the cities, jetties and water transport across the River line communities, ongoing Morden drug market in Oba and so many others

You will need it to develop your region . Peter obi the president of Ibo and Ibo people of south east.
We have Nissan, elizade/toyota in south west. They are all imported vehicles no difference. I think Volkswagen can still be rehabilitated while Alaba market can be demolished and used as testing ground or race track for all vehicles produced in Lagos. I forgot to mention scoa/ Peugeot. Just forget southwest is good to go anyday any time.

This yoruba economic illterate doesn't know the difference between Nissan, Toyota and Innoson. For your information we have Mercedes by ANAMCO now assembling SHACKMAN trucks but none is the same with indegenous Innoson
