aswani:There is no bite out of Lagos here, federal might is used to force all companies to have their headquarters in Lagos. Regional government will force all companies to have their selling point headquarters in various regions and pay tax where their products are consumed. |
shiffynaani:I will only take Yorubas serious if they can support regional government. They know that SE have the potential to govern theirselves, with standard International airport and functional River ports, SE will survive. SW and North are hiding under centralised government of Nigeria to hide their incompetence. People buy a bottle of cococola in Anambra and pay the VAT to Lagos. Bunch of jokers |

Brilliancepower:As if you don’t know how Nigeria system operates. MTN, oil companies, banks can’t relocate their headquarters because states don’t have power to do so. Regionalism is do that. |
FreeStuffsNG:Use one of the old western states to make noise, not Lagos that was developed by Nigeria common wealth since 1914. Lagos is not part of old western Nigeria. Very soon now Gbaji people in Abuja will start making noise on how they develop Abuja from time immemorial. |
004gist:Are you new to Nigeria or what ?, that is the reality of Nigeria current tax system , VAT are paid to where the company are registered not where the product is consumed, the reason for agitation for tax reform. Lagos take it all, oil headquarters, Mobile network headquarters, Bank headquarters, only access to seaport and international airport and lot more. |
FreeStuffsNG: |
Lateef73:Descendants of Bini that forgot their Bini language and be speaking Igbo, bearing Igbo names and practices Igbo culture and traditions. No single traces of Bini in them. |
The indigenous language you speak without external colonialism defines who you are and the tribe you belong. Ikwerre culture and spoken words are of Igbo ancestral descent, no matter how Ikwerres try to deny being Igbo they will end up speaking Igbo dialect of Ikwerre in their homes. So is difficult for them. Had it been their language is not Igbo but a close language to Bini language, people will take them serious, the argument whether they are Igbo or not will not even exist. |
Some people are clamouring for Goodluck Jonathan to come back in 2027, someone that many part of Nigeria see his administration as a failure and fought tooth and nail to remove him in power by replacing him with Buhari. For Nigeria to move forward, recycling old leaders that once had the chance to make Nigeria great but failed will not take Nigeria anyway but more hardship and deeper mess. Why not support the likes of Peter Obi or the chairman of African development bank Adesina and see what they can do |

For Anambra state there nothing like Osu cast, it was olden days stories. Some families in Anambra answer Nwosu or even Osu without any stigma. |
bobby007:The way you Yorubas are targeting Igbo businesses in Lagos for destruction is something else, after you guys will be shouting one Nigeria |
wellmax:Focus should be on Fulanis that invade peoples land and grab it by force by killings rather than Igbos that only do business and are harmless but only chestbeat about their achievement. |
TimeTraveller:Is that the reason anything Igbo is always on news, Igbos are topics of discussion in all social media ![]() |
Sarakin Hausawa-Fulani is ruling in Lagos without any problem. Anything Igbo bring serious phobia on some people.

Yorubanization, is alright that is their turn. I know T-Pain will surpass Buhari nepotism. |
In the whole world, what defines you as a person is the language you speak and when you are indigenous to that language without colonialism then you belong to that particular tribe. For example, someone from some part of Togo who they call their language ife or Ewe which is a Yoruba dialect can say they are not Yorubas but in reality the language they speak is the same with the Yorubas of Nigeria, so wether they are not Yorubas their language is the same with Yorubas. They hear each other without any difficulties. So for Ikwerres, Igbankes in Edo and Aniomas, them and the Igbos speak the same language and hear each other. So whether they are Igbos or not, they are from the same language heritage and speak the same language with variations which they call dialects. |
JohnnA1:You call it victim mentality because you know it is true nature of Nigeria, packing people like sardine in one state of Nigeria because of fear of SE region to develop. |
yoruboid:Is a big lie, Onne and Calabar Ports is not working, there no commercial activities there, only oil companies use Onne ports. Enugu Airport doesn’t operate international flights without stopping in Lagos or Abuja. If River Niger was to be in the north which is not too far from the sea, they would have dredge it to sea with oil money to be receiving big ships, you and I know that one, let’s stop lying to ourselves. |
South Eastern Nigeria is totally locked up by joint corroboration between Southwest and the North and then turn around and blame people for flocking to Lagos the former capital of Nigeria developed with oil money. No functional international airport or Seaport in the east. No FG presence. Everything in concentrated in Lagos and the North. I wonder why you will seize everything to yourself and turn around to say people are coming to Lagos where you keep everything. |

Schlumeinstein:Continue your stupidity, language defines who you are, Ikwerre is Igbo dialect forever unless if they will invite Bini people to teach them Bini language and then drop their Ikwerre Igbo dialect. |
Schlumeinstein:Who is interested in your land, let’s assume you have Niger Delta Republic, Ikwerre and Anioma will remain Igbos in your country as language they speak is Igbo dialect. There are indigenous Igbos in Cameroon and Equatorial Guinea, does been in those countries make them not to be Igbo or Yorubas indigenous to Cotonu or Togo are not Yorubas again. |
chrisxxx:You more stupid here, you can’t even differentiate between colonialism and indigenous languages. Is English indigenous to Americans. Igbo word for yes is even your Ikwerre. |
Eriokanmi:The correct spelling of Igbo is Igbo not Ibo, stop typing British giving name of Ibo removing the g sound in Igbo. |
chrisxxx:You are saying rubbish, there is no part of world where humans copy language. Your indigenous language defines who you are. Ikwerre speaks Igbo dialect and Igbo people didn’t copy any language from Ikwerre 2 local government of population that is not upto 2 million people and Igbo population of more than 50 million cannot copy language from minority. |
nedekid:Their language Ikwerre language is a dialect of Igbo language, it is wrong to say their language have some Igbo in it. Everything that Ikwere is speaking is Igbo but for political reasons some are denying not being Igbo. Other Igbo language spoken in different dialects include Anioma in Delta ( Ika, Ibuzor,Enuani,Ukwuani, Asaba, Igbanke in Edo State). Every central Igbo person hear what they say and they also hear central Igbo without any difficulties. |
Nigeria should be regionalised so that other states can also develop like Lagos. As it stands now in Nigeria, Lagos is taking other states resources, Lagos have oil headquarters that belong to other states, have seaports and international airports and block others from having through federal might. Bank headquarters in Lagos. All VAT paid to Lagos. For some Yorubas this is right because it benefit them, that is why Nigeria is not working. Let’s every state and regions be given equal opportunity to thrive not only one state taken it all. |
Gowon is the cause of the civil war, he signed Aburi peace agreement and refused to honour it. |
How many entourage of European countries government come to Nigeria for jamboree and waste tax payers money |
Casham:Yes offcourse but the argument is why is Muslims only religion in this modern world that is still killing people for ordinary insult to their prophet Mohammed. Can’t they stop that barbarism, it shows they are fighting for their god. |
