Willie and substandard projects........

80% of the company income tax, value added tax, education tax and custom duties generated in Nigeria comes from Lagos state and the state is not complaining. It is a sacrifice they have to make for the development of the country.

Going to court over the stamp duty act for interpretation is a matter of seeking legal clarification. The same way Niger Delta states are sacrificing for the nation is the same way Lagos is sacrificing as well. Stop trying to blackmail Lagos into supporting your agitation.

But all these taxes still constitute an insignificant percentage in the total government income. Meanwhile, total FG investment in Lagos surpasses this taxes by a wide margin and these investment comes from oil proceeds

farem:
Are you telling this house that there are no banks and deposits in Port Harcourt, Asaba, Uyo, Calabar etc that will generate big money for them except Lagos? I am assuming there's none in your jungle.
This fight is for all states of the federation and stop being limiting in your thought process.

anambra and abia control more cash transactions than any other state in southern nigeria apart from Lagos and rivers

Power is privatised now. Minister of Darkness only controlls transmission. Generation is now in the hands of GENCOS, distribution in the hands of DISCOS.

You people did not complain when the last admin handed over to GENCOS and DISCOS....and remember they did give you guys time to register your disagreement. Most of us kept quiet.

Keep quiet, in the middle of rainy season when the dam fill up, power will improve but instead of praising GENCOS you praise buhari nd fashola

Too much haters, yet innoson is moving higher

bantudra:
you igbos sef..if you would just abandon ipob,i would be quiet...i cant take this ipob biafra rubbish no more...

be ruled by drug peddlers because they have money??....no thank you....

we deltans rather be like Ogbomosho....

Nothing concern this thread with IPOB, your state is stinking and your brother is wailing. that is your one Niajiriya. enjoy it

bantudra:
you call what igbos are doing abroad success??....please,give me a break...mbok...

my friend go and sip sapele water. Lack of ambition is not a virtue, you better get in your skull

bantudra:
i said it...the problem of the delta is the igboid tribes....they infested us with their get rich or die trying mentalities....

go and enjoy your ogogoro, all the who is who in delta are delta igbos

victorvezx:
Hahaha, my bro, this is just Ipob attempt at saving face. Pure propaganda to make it seem the south south people are interested in their biafran fraud. Tell me who in the south south know all this people they appoint. Each state in the south south has at least 6 million people in population, if 10 or even 100 rogues support Biafra, it does not mean dey speak for others. Keep appointing them, at the end na Nigeria u go still face before u move

According to federal sources, Anambra with population of 5.5 million is the most populated in SE/SS followed by rivers with 5 million

danot1030:
Countless foreign diplomas have visited Ambode in Lagos and it was never an issue. This biafuro people always making noise over everything seeking for unnecessary attentions.

Nomansland you mean?? How many visited Akure, Ado ekiti, Osogob, Ibadam etc?? You think he is not aware of skull miners having a field day over there. Meanwhile The US ambasador has visited Enugu, Ebonyi and now anambra

THose asking how Biafra will be funded because Niger Delta will not join should know that Apple and Microsoft are richer than Shell and Chevron

Digitron:
NSUKKA THE HILL CITY

When will they complete this Catholic Cathedral. Its probably more than 20 years since they started

All bloggers are liars.. Reason why they hardly progress in life. LiePob miscreants love lies and lie alot, reason why they celebrate lies the most.

Mynd44, you might wanna tell this poster about Rule 8.

They should take this news to igberetv. It will make headlines there.

give us the authentic news or shut up

Northernization continues

neoOduduwa:
Attache indeed. We're not the ones flocking into Yorùbá states in large numbers. We don't need to beat our chest on every thread because we know our worth and don't need to prove sh¡t to no one. We've proven ourselves in Nigeria and beyond. Here's an official list of the highest-grossing Nigerian movies. Peace https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_highest-grossing_Nigerian_films

Take your useless afonja wikipedia link out of here. Lol, imagine parading wikipedia that any idiot can edit

akinsmyk:
What are you saying? You mean igbo nollywood that was recently launched on africa magic? You mean igbo movies filled with silly comedies and witchcraft? Funny, I would partially agree with you if you say the English nollywood movies. After the English movies which has majority of Igbo actors, next is Yoruba nollywood.. igbo speaking movies haven't come close. 95% of it is about village life, charms and witchcraft. Go see modern settings, houses, cars, name it. Unrealistic stories, magic and impossibilities makes Yoruba movies lagging

Lol, you are saying the same thing with the person you quoted. Igbo nollywood does not necessarily mean movies in igbo language but movies with igbo cultural setting in its storyline

Osumbade, please listen to what Awo said

Mynd88:
Op at what point did Oduduwa fall from the sky and crushed his skull? Is it before or after the war?

Ikechu10:
Because those areas are the largest oil producing areas of River state.

The largest oil blocks in River state is in Ndoni-Egbema-Ogba area.

Likewise Oyigbo produces a high percentage of oil for river state. Infact remove those areas plus etche, River status as an oil producing would drop significant low. It will not be the second largest anyone.

Some of those communities in question like Egbema and Oyigbo have long been asking to be carved out of River state. Oil is the only reason theironically request is ignored. Also the reason ijaws at one point was trying to annex them as ijaws.

while they enjoy the oil they have to live with the bitter truth that the oil is in igboland and igbos will continue ruling. if they don't like it, just carve all igbo groups out. No igbo is disturbing them in Bayelsa

Igbos are noted for being uncontrollably greedy, aggressive and assimilative!
They wont let them be until they can swallow them by force!

Even if you hand over the whole world to them, they will still fight over the Moon!
Like Oliver Twist, greedy people are NEVER contented.



Lastpage!

Keep quiet, Ikot Ekpene is closer to Aba than PH, how many times has there been a debate over their ethnicity??/ Do you create an ethnic group by writing Umu as Rumu or Nwakamma as Wakamma just because it is pronouce like that in you dialect?? while you are free to write in your dialect, it does not confer a seperate ethnic group. Imo bears Ihedioha, anambra version is Ifediora so i do not see how Rumu vs Umu makes a distinct ethnic group

what is the different between Umu and Rumu?? can't these ignorant afonja OP see that Rumu is just a dialect just as Umu is the standardized version as Abagworo said?? Its just like writing Nwachukwu as Wachukwu, does that change anything, don't you know that other igbo clans in the SE pronouce it as Wachukwu but write in standardized version as Nwachukwu??

blues20:
That MXrep is something else. He is not representing Igbos interest on this thread.

Lol, you make it look like Igbos should be kneeling down begging for friendship. Has somebody like Tonyebacanista not insulted igbos several times unprovoked??

Dfinex:
is it the fact that we are lazy and we drink ogogoro but still yet we are overwhelmingly blessed by God that is ur heart ache?....but looking at it objectively we've got a cleaner slate than u because an average Igbo person is an internationally recognized criminal. How about that?

See these pics and see how oil is a curse to you and a blessing to igbos

ichukwu48:
Will shut that your mouth. Etche, Egbema and oyigbo have always maintained and proudly stated they are igbo

https://www.nairaland.com/3327624/etche-river-state-not-igbo--igbo

Anyway, I'm glad ijaws are getting a taste of their medicine. The attempt to dominate backfired on them very well.

LOl, don't mind the mofos. Every village is an "ethnic nationality". Deluded clowns

donmalcolm21:
Don't you guys get tired with putting your mouth where it's not needed. Seriously i get pissed with most of you biafra agitators because of your level of reasoning

This thread has nothing to do with Biafra agitation, stop looking for cheap escape route and face the topic

[quote author= post=55706536]Guy what is your problem with this topic Your rating all over the thread is irritating, you made your points at 1st page, please allow them to discuss their problems.[/quote]If it irritates you just ignore it. They brought me into their discussion when they said this,,,,

9. To deny Rivers Ijaw the governorship of new Rivers State because Diete-Spiff and Okilo were governors of old Rivers State, is like denying Ikwerre the governorship because Dr. Nnamdi Azikiwe, Dr. Michael Okpara and Odumegwu Ojukwu were premiers/military governor of old Eastern Region that included present Rivers State.

joeprince23:
this student had to get a medical cert from his lga just to prove to people in bori that he is indeed from rivers while his ogoni colleage didnt need such... many posters here just dont knw the realities in rivers

why can't they just carve out the igbo groups, or face the realities that there are igbos in Rivers

nengibo:
Are you an Ibani man? Keep these your divisive ipob statements to yourself, is the vp of Iyc not from Opobo

You see what i am saying, some one who says his mind is IPOB, you brought IPOB and Biafra into the discussion but now complaining

pazienza:
How exactly did Ndiigbo get involved in this thread?
Ndiigbo, please let's pick our battles carefully, we had no reason whatsoever to get involved in this thread.

Just my opinion anyway, I'm sure that Igbos that got involved in this thread are also entitled to their own opinions.

Thank you for your maturity in acknowledging that people should be entitled to their opinion. as for how igbos got involved. See this
