How can nigeria operate a unitary constitution when it is a federal state?

Where did you get your information that nigeria operates a unitary constitution?

A centralized government (also united government) is one in which both executive and legislative power is concentrated centrally at the higher level as opposed to it being more distributed at various lower level governments.

Igbos landing in ojota is not d issue here and don't change d narrative. We all know those that doesn't like paying for rent here in Lagos.
We all know those that sells their fathers property and later start squatting around

In Lagos there are citizens from all over Nigeria ,but the only tribe that tells the citizens of Lagos that is no man's land is Igbos ,APGA contested governorship elections in Lagos using an Igbo as the candidate.

You brother ironsi and professor Nwabueze created this mess for selfish reason ,to annex all resources of others because they were in power.We are still not free from that till date,and instead of teaming up so we can free ourselves from Hausa fulani slavery ,you continue to play the spoliers game,as if obi can win a national election.

She shall see after you have lost ,you will definitely revert back to fake Biafra of shout referedum.instead of voting for People that reorganize the constitution and put does clauses that will help every one without bloodshed.You continue to do rubbish.

U are right about those that comes to Lagos with nylon and start selling gala.
Don't u think its so shameful that same guy that with nylon to hawk gets accommodation within a short period of time while d so called Lagos owners are still squatting up and down with friends and also living in slums. Just go to d whole slums here in Lagos and see occupants of those areas

There is what you call omoluabi ethos,so this can't do drugs,robbery to get working capital.the need the need the banks for working capital,but the interest rate is too much to borrow and not assessable to those categories of people in our country.under a regional system ,we had social work ,that supports you to get back on your feet through support.

Mumuism of the highest level! He is already the mayor'kun of lagos that one should be enough for him!

Do you know the number of Nigerians living ,schooling In the UK?they send money back home to help their relatives and can easily communicate with their loved ones.This targets the audience.

We need pointbased system in the future before you can migrate to Lagos,you can't just wake up and take a bus and land in ojota with a nylon bag or mazamaza and start selling in traffic and sleeping under the bridge before you get rent money.You must be skilled to live here in future .

The unitary system created poverty in Yoruba land ,so we know the reason some sold their houses .

1. Which money is made and sent to Abuja?

2. Who collects VAT according to the law?

3. Before Tinubu became governor of Lagos, did nothing happen in Lagos?

4. How does increasing revenue automatically qualify Tinubu to be president? How much did awolowo use to do these u said he did?

"Awolowo created ilupeju industrial estate ,with ilupeju estate ,just walking distance,so that you can work and live near your factory.ogba Ikeja industrial estate ,oshodi isolo industrial estate etc"

5. Which restructuring is Tinubu going to restructure?

6. Who are you a slave to?

7. Pls produce the evidence that Lagos contributes 70% of VAT and 20% the remaining 35states. Who is responsible for the remaining 10%?

The Apapa port and the tincan ports generate up to 10trillion ,all the money goes to Abuja, all the people that work there are from a section of Nigeria .

Increasing intenallly generated revenues shows the potentials of the state and the person that did that in which People have come to study it ,remains an asset.

It's like you don't even know what you are saying. The question I asked you is about "the parts of Lagos that you said were federal" and you are talking about federal govt properties in Lagos. Is Lagos the only place the federal govt has properties in Nigeria?

Question again: You still haven't negated what he said because the parts that you said were federal, are they still under federal or state?

So you don't know there are federal roads and star roads in Nigeria ?you don't know federal properties belongs to the federal ?festac is federal, national art theatre is federal ..I can't think like you ,you are thinking upside down.you want me to show you the signboard or the marks.werey

You still haven't negated what he said because the parts that you said we're federal, are they still under federal or state?

Federal secretariat is still there ,embassies are still there ,tafawa balewa square is still there,dodan barracks is still there , liaison officers are still there.Army barracks victory island ,air force base Victoria Island ,are all still federal and people are sent from Abuja to man does places including ports etc.

emmanuelbrown26:
U repeated same thing I said na apart from few places u added.
Moreover, population of those living in slumpy areas are far far higher than those living at d places u mentioned

Because of democracy you cannot remove slumps,ajegunle has Igbos ,ijaws ,isokos ,etc they mostly came to work at the ports ,it's a prime land belonging to oluwa family,the whole of Apapa belongs to them.what do you term as slum.,with population surge?you know how many Igbos land in ojota a day?50 Igbos are landing mazamaza and ojota a day, half of them are not going back.Its strains infastructure and now you are writing bullshit.

CheapHomes1:
How does this negate what he said?

He said Lagos state was federal ,and I told him not all parts of Lagos state .federal Lagos starts in in ikoyi , Victoria Island up to Western avenue,the rest from that bridge is Western Nigeria .Ikeja,Ogudu,plamgrove,onipan , Maryland, Anthony, gbagada,oshodi,ajao estate ,epe,badagry, ikorodu,Apapa,mushin,ijora,white Metta etc are all western Nigeria .

CheapHomes1:
You only corroborated the point he made. Am glad you said this because all this while you guys have sounded like nothing happened in Lagos before 1999 under Tinubu

Awolowo operated under a regional government ,and all money made in the regions belong to the regions .


Tinubu operated under a unitary system ,all money made are sent to Abuja and shared according to number of states and local governments.Many states depended on that money ,so he started the process of increasing the revenues from 600million monthly,it's now 50billion .
That is why you need to vote for him,so that we can restructure the country and stop being slaves.

emmanuelbrown26:
Oga ohhhh, countries do go to countries to learn and relearn.
Companies do send staff to learn and relearn.
There is no big deal here sir. By d way, money Lagos generate in a day, is like 4-6 months generation of some states.
If Lagos pass island, some part of surulere, some part of ikeja and some part of yaba, d rest na slum.
Funnily enough, those occupying d slumpy areas are damn suffering and smiling and that's where politicians gets there votes with 1k with ogogoro

You don't know Lagos at all starting Apapa, Ogudu,ikorodu,epe,badagry ,ajoa estate,Ikeja GRA ,shonibare estate ,ikoyi ,Victoria Island ,lekki ,ilupeju,gbagada,ikosi GRA , have you head the term urban rejuvenation before?Lagos was first .Thedevelopment as modernized old areas ,surulere,mushin,yaba,ebutemetta.Dont hate .

Nonexisting:
Thank you. People are always quick to take glory for nothing and remember it was the same Ambode who they said was a failure just because Tinubu told them so that was there at that time.

Humans cannot shape a country ,only systems and institutions shape countries not humans . restructuring is the key to sustainable development.

Lagos was the capital of Nigeria for 77 years.... going as far back as before Nigeria even gained her independence, with a lot of federal allocation within that time frame. A lot of companies also situated their headquarters there and refused to relocate after the capital was moved to Abuja, so it is only logical other states comes to learn about it.

Below are old photos from lagos in the 60s/70s.

Awolowo created over 120 factories in the industrial areas ,have you head of airport hotels?wema bank?tower aluminium?

When did Lagos become a federal territory?
When Southern and Northern Nigeria were amalgamated in 1914, Lagos was made the capital of the Colony and Protectorate of Nigeria. In 1954 most of the hinterland was incorporated into the region of Western Nigeria, while the city itself was designated as federal territory.

This is false ,Lagos was a federal capital ,and the federal areas are known, the remaining parts of Lagos was Western region.

Can you win such people? election as not started they are already leading with number is states ,and you refuse to be realistic and forcing your self into further slavery.

pacespot:
They will soon call this one Tinubu's achievement. More like every person in that state is working for Tinubu.

Lagos is a state where informal market and commercial businesses are dominant over every other sector, which allow the government to accrue money through taxes. That is why it can afford all the developmental projects.

I really do not know why the Lagos state government continues to pay the waec fees of Igbos in Lagos .I don't understand why they do that ,with this backstabbing after paying fees ,using the medical services and transport systems etc.Lagos should always gather their names and ask for refund from their various states .

As much as this is a brilliant idea considering the number of people that commit suicide on third mainland bridge everyday, I still think it's a little silly cos I drowning man cannot call an ambulance lol
But we can't throw away any good development in Nigeria cos we don't get many very often so well done to them.

What is meant by blue economy?
According to the World Bank, the blue economy is the "sustainable use of ocean resources for economic growth, improved livelihoods, and jobs while preserving the health of ocean ecosystem." European Commission defines it as "All economic activities related to oceans, seas and coasts.
