basilo101: Lol, let them compare it with this. This is Onitsha, totally built up by indigenous entrepreneurs

ChinoElects: Omotier, this is the same Benin that oshomole borrowed 100billion

capricon: You see how daft you are? You said u don't live in your homeland that means you live in another mans place yet you just accused someone of doing the same thing you are doing

Smuthx: GEJ has succesfully broken up the governors forum. They have zero to nil signficance.

Obiagu1: Don't be too fast!
Ring Road, Benin City is the centre of the state capital.
Post pictures that are outside the core?

I lived in Benin too like you, born liar!

MajeMedia: LOL you don't get it, Anambra has the highest JAMB test scores in the entire nation! So what does your painted desk really mean? Imo has a number of jamb applicants that's double the next closest Yoruba state. It's great that Edo and APC states have focused on making school presentable, but schools in igbo land focus of competition between students, and displaying achievement and talent. When the governor visits the best students present their skills, they compete for this honor, and so when it's time to take a test they maintain the attitude of competition. Everyone wants to be the best, desk, bare floor or mansion, it doesn't matter the terrain.

Because of our own philosophy, my own village has 4 polytechnics, all build by private individuals and town unions. One village. Anambra is no different. and NO igbo parent is trying to take their kids to public school. It's a disgrace because the quality of education is inferior. Most igbo children go to church owned or business owned private schools.

Igbos have a different philosophy in governing

ChinoElects:
Google is your friend. Edo state with the so called huge IGR is still in shambles, archaic and mess. How has it translated to the common man. Instead your ugly governor is busy telling widows to go and die. What a state to be born into..

ChinoElects:

What is this one talking. 3 SE states has oil (Anambra, Abia and Imo). Infact Anambra has the largest gas reserve in Nigeria and beyond. Ask google..

Igbos are not oil dependent, we are Igbos so we explore other areas of the economy while our oil is intact. In the case of Anambra an indigenous company has taken charge of it, making sure that Anambra people and Igbos in general are employed to our benefit while the capital remains with us too.

I want you to show us what edo state has achieved under oshomole for 6years now even with all the loans running into over 200billion he has borrowed with nothing on the ground to show for it.

Sloan: So business registration fees is now the reason why the IGR of SE states are mostly the lowest in Nigeria? Spin it again until you spin out of control! LWKMD! The SW continues to attract huge investments and businesses based on requirements that are well-researched and standardized and used all over the world! You want to be like New York City but you don't want to make the kind of investments NY makes or demands from its people? It's funny, assuming if your post is true, it shows that even for almost free (aside hidden red-tape in the SE), investors would still rather pay a mere 50K in the SW to run a profitable business in an organized society with some of the lowest crime rates in the country! That alone is an indictment on the SE and their myopic ways of life! At least you now accept your IGR is low and you have to find a reason to justify it! LWKMD!

MajeMedia: This is the two different cultural philosophies in practice for anyone doubting my theory that igbos believe in less tax and less government to produce more private participation.

Before you start posting epistle on NL, can I ask you what constitutes an Internal Generated Revenue by a state in Nigeria?

This is why you are called a clown..

Show us pictures of the world this and that, until you show us this is picture an average Easterner will continue to have about the yorobarland as a dungeon for savages.

Sloan: Yes, Omo you're spot on! That is exactly why the need to continually lay claim to the SS (because of their oil wealth) or what exactly will the SS gain from the SE that they cannot do themselves, I mean in the REAL sense! Yes, they call them "lazy" today but the "industrious" people are the ones who are lagging behind the so called "lazy" ones! The Ibos have their eyes on the oil wealth of the SS and they will surely do nothing than transfer that oil wealth to build their lands and when push comes to shove, tell off the SS! The Ibos had a single objective of unitary government back since the days of Zik and the so called "nationalistic" Zik was only true for as long as an Ibo was the one in unitary top authority! Otherwise, how do you explain away the fact that no other part of Nigeria accepted unitarianism but Ironsi assumed power unconstitutionally (and he went ahead to promulgate his useless decree 34) when he knew he was in power and surrounded by mostly Ibos at the very top.

If SS were ever conned into any arrangement with the SE, they will overwhelm you eventually, claim that they developed your states (not your oil wealth or the labour of the natives which dates back to since God know when), in fact if you want to know what Saturday will be like look at Friday. If the SS wants to know what a future Ibo country will be like, look at what it is now! The SE is clearly lagging behind but here they are already changing the goal posts saying it is smaller government, less taxes! Even if all Ibos do is to gain 40% of the economic opportunities of the SS, the SS would have already lost several millions of jobs and billion of dollars to an ungrateful SE. The jury is out anyway and it is left for everyone to make their best decisions!

ChinoElects: Obasanjor is the worst thing to happen to this country. GEJ is a saint where the criminal Obj is..

ChinoElects:

The question is, is lagos yorobarland?

Lilimax: Good to know.
Why are people so much attached to bad news and seldom acknowledge good news
and projects when the need arise

Learn to appreciate good works

Sincere 9gerian: Another baseless Sincere 9gerian PDPnized and Tukurnized opinion. Next!

taharqa: In other words, NO WHERE in d Constitution is it stated that d NA shld take ova d functions of a State HOA only cos dat House merely 'is in crisis' (yr words). Thnk you much..... Read tru d @emboldened parts of d excerpts you posted above to know what specific conditions they constitution gave..

Goddex: The FG is constructing many more roads in Abuja than what Lagos state is doing but we don't get to hear this much propaganda. Lagos need pipeborne water like most other cities and not these noisemaking when a 2KM road is asphalted.

CFCfan: Very impressive!! 170km/hr (105.6mph) is super fast.

awodman: Nobody is giving any tales...its just a THISDAY report who took time out to find out what was wrong and those were his findings

otokx: December 1, 2012 it was 252 official rate to 1 pound.

December 1, 2013 it was 266 official rate to 1 pound.

Okonjo Iweala and Sanusi deserve Nobel Prize for Economics. They have impoverished the people of Nigeria on a grand scale.
