dayokanu: Iboland is the most hostile region to stay in

We have Portharcourt, kano, Jos, Ibadan all in different region with huge migrant population.

Is there a study to that effect, or we are working with hunches and stuff.

Dude, Igboland is very acconodating but certainly not for the faint of heart.
Unlike the South West, with her discriminatory policies aka the indigene-settler-guest trifecta. Or her insistence that other Nigerians curtsey to her Babloja. Or repatriating/deporting/reuniting/whatever other word that can dissolve away the enormity of that of fence meted out to other Nigerians.

BTW, the day I saw Ondo State's Wiki page taking pride in Emeagwali as one of her notable persons, I was quite happy with Yoruba's albeit for a split second...the next second, your Awo-wannabe in Lagos stirred the hornets nest by engendering the Host-guest brouhaha. It's like the Southwest has two extreme, conflicting philosophies/perceptions of what Nigeria ought to be.

dayokanu: ^^ Its common knowledge that we have more Ibos in the SouthWest than Yorubas in Iboland


And they are not here for business, they are fully resident. People Like Achebe, Ojukwu, Emeagwali and several prominent Ibo men have made the SW their home in time past.

Hardly would you find any Yoruba living in Iboland

There are Igbo people resident in the North as well. In fact, they're everywhere. In 1946, my paternal grand parents (God bless their memory) got married in the town of Shendam, Plateau State despite being from IsiUzo in Enugu State. They returned after completing their family (?1959), but maintained business relations with Shendam. My father and his siblings all speak fluent Hausa.
In other words, Igbo migratory behavior is ingrained. Even if there was nothing of note in Lagos, you would likely still find Igbos there. Housing the nation's ports is even more reason why Igbos have a significant presence in Lagos.

Yorubas in Igboland blend in very easily because there aren't stifling rules over there. They blend in so well you hardly can tell they're Yoruba. Igbos are so peaceful and so accommodating. I had a couple classmates who took Igbo first names: Ifeanyi and Chiomai.

Just stumbled on this thread while nosing around.
Very funny thread.
Didn't know Romance could be fun.

geeez: And what's wrong with distilling palm oil to make fuel for automobiles?

It can only lead to an increase in demand and stimulate agriculture

The oil palm plant that becomes palm oil for cooking and fuel for automobiles go through different refining processes

It can only lead to creation of jobs both in the sector and allied industries

I'd also like to see our glass half-full, but the raw material in question happens to be a food item Nigerians cannot afford to toy with. It's oilpalm: the same resource that has catapulted Malaysia ahead of us. A trend like this may be beneficial in the short term, but Nigeria's population is far from static, unlike land. If this trend takes off, we might well become the world's leading exporter of biofuels, and then have to import every conceivable food item. It's happened to the ND's aquatic life already.
BioFuel and Food are kind of mutually exclusive , in the long run. It's ultimately a question of reconciling potential with the threat that it poses. Sadly, we do not even have a regulatory body for issues of this nature. Our high Unemployment rates ensure we take every investment initiative from the West in good faith.

Is ethanol starving Africa?
By Amar Toor 13 Hours Ago

addax biofuels sugarcane

The biofuel industry has enjoyed tremendous growth over the past decade, sparked by the ongoing search for renewable energy sources and government incentives for private sector investment. But ethanol and other biofuels have come under increased criticism in recent years, with some questioning their long-term environmental benefits, and others linking them to far more urgent disasters: food shortages in the world's poorest countries.

ActionAid, a UK-based charity, lashed out at Addax Bioenergy earlier this month, accusing the Swiss company of engaging in a biofuels “land grab” that has diminished food supplies and harmed the livelihoods of locals in the Bombali region of Sierra Leone. Addax took out a 50-year lease on more than 50,000 hectares of land there in 2008, and has since set up a massive sugarcane plantation to produce ethanol for biofuels. The company plans to begin exporting ethanol to Europe by 2014, and aims to provide electricity for around 20 percent of Sierra Leone's national grid.

The Addax Bioenergy Project was the first Africa-based complex to earn certification from the Roundtable on Sustainable Biofuels, but according to ActionAid’s survey of more than 100 local villagers, the investment hasn’t made much of an impact on everyday life. The charity’s report, published on September 3rd, claims that Addax's sugarcane complex has decimated valuable farmland in Sierra Leone, decreasing food production in a region already ravaged by hunger. ActionAid also claims that Addax’s lease contracts were signed without the involvement of local communities, and that a program designed to train farmers on more advanced agricultural techniques has so far resulted in lower crop yields.

FOOD VERSUS FUEL?

Sierra Leone is one of the world's poorest countries, and ranks near the bottom of the Human Development Index. Life expectancy at birth is just 48 years, and only 7 percent of households have access to electricity. According to the Food and Agriculture Organization (FAO), agriculture accounts for 49 percent of Sierra Leone's GDP, and employs around 60 percent of the population.

Addax has vehemently denied ActionAid's allegations, contesting the charity’s methodology, and charging that its motives are rooted in politics rather than reality. The project, the company counters, has injected nearly $52 million into Sierra Leone's economy, and has employed more than 2,000 locals. Addax also contests allegations that leases for its sugarcane plantation were signed without transparency, pointing to yearlong public discussions it held with the land-owning Chiefdom Councils in the area. According to the company, more than 2,000 hectares of community rice fields have been developed under its farmer development program.

"There is evidence that many communities have a better livelihood, more income at household level and more children attending school than before," the company said in an open letter to ActionAid this month. "Communities are prioritized for job opportunities and Addax Bioenergy makes every effort to ensure communities within the area are the first to be recruited for permanent and seasonal employment opportunities."

ActionAid isn't the first to levy charges of land grabbing against Addax. A 2011 report from a Swiss non-government organization (NGO) made a similar case, arguing that many farmers had already been pushed off fertile land without due compensation. NGOs such as Oxfam have waged ongoing campaigns against biofuel multinationals in other parts of Africa, as well.

"When Addax visited the area, they promised us schools, boreholes, hospitals because of the chemicals they would be using, and jobs," Ali Bangura, a representative of the Landowners Committee of Makeni, told AFP at the time. "But nothing has materialized since 2008."

“What we’ve seen over the past three or four years is an absolute rush for land,” says Anders Dahlbeck, biofuels policy advisor at ActionAid. “And this has been very much driven by European targets” — a reference to the European Union’s goal of having 10 percent of all transport energy come from renewable sources by the year 2020.

"THAT LAND SHOULD BE USED TO PRODUCE FOOD FOR LOCALS, NOT FOR FUEL FOR EUROPEAN CARS."

Last week, the European Parliament passed a preliminary measure to limit the share of food-based biofuel to 6 percent of all transport fuels. The US Environmental Protection Agency is poised to take similar steps, underscoring what some see as a growing uncertainty around the future of biofuels.

Many have blamed ethanol production for rising global food prices, based on the premise that biofuel production diverts resources away from traditional agriculture. Some studies have also shown that biofuel production can actually emit more climate-warming carbon into the atmosphere than traditional diesel or gasoline.

"That land should be used to produce food for locals, not to fuel European cars," Dahlbeck argues.

But some experts say that when it comes to biofuels and food security, it’s not an “either-or” question.

"At the moment we have a false dichotomy between biofuels and other forms of land development," says Jeremy Woods, a lecturer at the Centre for Environmental Policy at Imperial College London and co-author of a 2011 paper that argued in favor of biofuels as a means of enhancing food security in Africa.

"A lot of this dichotomy is led by the perspective of 'food versus fuel', whereas when you actually look at the data, it’s very difficult to find any evidence of food versus fuel at almost any scale,” Woods tells The Verge, noting that traditional agriculture continues to drive most demand for large-scale land acquisitions across the globe.

"IDEOLOGICAL ARGUMENTS ARE A POOR SUBSTITUTE FOR BUILDING LAND-MANAGEMENT CAPACITY."

Dr. Calestous Juma, a professor of international development at the Harvard Kennedy School, adds that the current debate surrounding biofuels has become too polarized and abstract, oversimplifying what, at its core, is a very complex issue.

In an email to The Verge, Juma said that biofuels have become "scapegoats in political battles," while acknowledging that they are "grossly overrated as a sustainable pathway to development." In his view, biofuels shouldn't be decoupled from traditional agriculture because they both require the same infrastructure and strong governance — both of which are far more critical to food security than ethanol or other biofuels.

"Much of the reaction from NGOs has been more rhetorical than it has been helpful to African governments," Juma says. "Ideological arguments are a poor substitute for building land-management capacity."

Italy recently offered to set up a palm oil processing plant in the State of Osun.
I'm hoping the State of Osun will see through Italy's Greek gift. We are poor but not unintelligent.
We should think beyond today, and beyond the meager pecuniary returns certain actions may bring. Not every nation is genuinely interested in your well-being. In fact, when it comes to international relations , a hefty dose of cynicism is healthy.

Thats d way out. Leave all those ppl that brag abt everything being in their land even though they dont own any.
We need economic independence from white ppl and only easterners are gearing 2wds it.
North and west be like : 'white ppl, abeg,come and colonise us again. We no fit on our own'.
Hehehehe.
And 2moro, dey will yarn GDP dat will not correspond to their wages per month , bank acct balance and houses they build.

It's like someone rightly observed: "Must every Whiteman do something for us?"
This overdependence on the West is truly disturbing.

[quote author=madam_oringo]So now you are crying because your precious palm oil is about to be turned into sweet petrol for my car? Well, cry me a river! You people never cared about palm oil anyway, like you fathers so why the cries? "Na our oyel" why are you afraid? That we have ample land to grow enough raw materials for petrol to power our vehicles and machines ad infinitum? Oh, you know there will be more job opportunities in Osun? An increase in the tax base meaning more money primarily for the people you love to hate? It is known that you people think you abuse the west despite the fact that your fathers and grandfathers took to palm oil production as their vocation, with which they initially developed your land and educated your fathers. Today an average one of you would run away from it, abuse (the joke's on you anyway) the SW and now you complain that some other people want the product you deride? Cry your eyes out, we will sell you palm oil in different processed grades, low-fat, high-fat, medium-fat, red, green and yellow - nothing you can do plus of course sweet petrol from the once derided palm oil - YAY!

BTW, stop being an ignoramus. All types of edible oils are fattening - not just palm oil - including olive oil (one of the least fattening). For hundreds of years, it was used by your fathers and grandfathers, how many died of obesity induced heart attack? I know you are grasping at straws doing everything to pull down this initiative but you have failed![/quote]Oh, well, it's down to Us vs Them.
At least, your brothers from across the Niger tried to say "This is a mistake, costly, not easily corrected"
But you chose to reply "Take your advice and shove it!"

Thankfully, the East has her Adapalm indigenous palm oil processing factory. When the have-nots in your land can no longer afford the luxury of palm oil (as was the case with Oloyin beans), may be the goodhearted Rochas will come to your rescue. After all, what are (APC) friends for?

I was at Umuahia and Aba recently. Orji's greatest achievement is to slap the name "Ochendo" on everything: Ochendo Youth empowerment program (giving taxis to graduates), Ochendo ultra modern park (an actual irony), or the huge billboards that say "Think safety. Thank Ochendo" WTF!

Not to be outdone, Orji built his estate on Azikiwe street, just adjacent to Ibeto Close, copying the marbled walls that lead into Ibeto's home, and then naming the new street Ochendo Close.

His dualized roads are a sham. Look at the attached picture of a dualized road. It's narrow as hell and can barely admit a bus and a keke side by side. To make matters worse, it doubles as a pavement.
In Aba, the roads are in a sorry state, yet the man is busy weaving demarcation nets along the dilapidated roads.

The only successful persons under his administration are sycophants who are able to sing his praises all night long.

[quote author=madam_oringo]You people are very funny! Is it not some Nigerians that hate the palm oil, palm kernel, palm anything work of their fathers they call some people Yoruba in Nigeria? LWKMD now you are crying?? Well, NOTHING will make me happier if the Italian company squeezes every drop of palm oil away from the people who hold the hand work of their fathers in contempt calling some people Yoruba. They complain about palm oil soup but are now crying because another company is investing a lot of their money and energies into it? Well, I look forward to the day higher quality mmanu and Yoruba will be exported directly across the Niger at premium prices just because it is higher quality and cleaner.[/quote]Madame, are you even listening to yourself? I see you would gladly cut your nose to spite your face. I have attended some health conferences with Italians who opine that there is a higher incidence of heart attacks in Southern Nigeria compared to Northern Nigeria. And they point to palm oil as the causative factor, claiming that the Southern diet is largely palm oil-based. Now, suddenly they want to help us produce more palm oil... How does that work? The truth is they are likely going divert the palm oil to other uses especially as a bio fuel (and the company's website suggests this). Very soon, palm oil will become a premium resource, and Southern Nigeria will have to turn to processed palm from Italy under various guises: low-fat palm, no-fat palm etc . Assuming there's truly a higher incidence of heart attacks in the South, and assuming palm oil is the sole cause, wouldn't we still be able to process this oil to our taste?

I ask this because I'm genuinely concerned.

An Osogbo Magistrate’s court in Osun has dissolved a 17-year-old marriage over complaint by the husband that his wife beats him up mercilessly for going to church. The petitioner, Mr. Asimuyu Oladosu, told the court that his wife, Kehinde, beats him whenever he goes to church or vigil and urged the court to dissolve the marriage.
Asimuyu hinged the dissolution of his marriage blessed with three children on the ground that he is tired of the marriage due to frequent beating by his wife, as well as her nagging nature. He said: “She does not go to church and whenever I go to church or vigil, she will not allow me into the house and if she does, she beats me mercilessly. And based on these facts, I want the court to dissolve this union.”
Pleading with the court not to dissolve her marriage, Kehinde admitted beating her husband, but claimed she does that only when some unknown spirits comes into her.
*Court
She pointed out that some unknown spirits push her to beat her husband, adding “what my husband said is true. I always beat him but I do not know what usually come over me whenever I did that. Some unknown spirits push me to do it. I still love my husband and I want the matter to be settled amicably. I don’t want to leave him and I promise that I will never beat him again.”
After listening to both parties, President of the court, Mrs. Temilade Agboola, urged the husband to consider the plea of his wife and forgive her. However, the husband insisted that he was no more interested in the marriage and urged the court to grant his request.
Left with no option but to grant the request, Agboola subsequently dissolved the marriage and ordered that the wife should take custody of the three children. She also ordered Oladosu to give N9, 000 monthly for the upkeep of the children.

This is getting clearer.
The Chief at my workplace is from Ife
8/9 staff in my department are from Ife
I'm the only non-Ife indigene here
BTW, my workplace is not in Osun.

Why are Ifes so clannish and insular.
Make an Ife man director of administration, and he turns the whole place into an Ife gathering of some sort.

I don't see anything exciting about this news piece. Our ancestors already perfected local methods of oil palm processing, yet several years later, we are excited the Italians are producing palm oil for us. What a shame! Why don't the government draw up a proposal with the farmers themselves and build this processing plant. Or, encourage local investors to set up the plant. That way, we would have created more jobs and kept the profit among Nigerians.

May be tomorrow, we would partner Sudan to set up a garri processing plant in Ijebuland.

PS: I expect to be called an enemy of progress for this. But I ask, is this progress?

But the Yorubas, for their part, must quit claiming everything from the first Nigerian medical doctor to the first state university in Nigeria, to being the most educated Nigerian group, or being the only group ever to have seen the Queen of England... falsehoods that have been debunked time and again.
It's okay to be second sometimes, or third. Or, even admit you've never seen the Queen of England. (Who the hell is she anyway! Has she met the richest Yoruba's: Fernandez and Folorunso) After all, it's more honorable to fail than to cheat-the line's not mine

[quote author=Bandit C.]You people are just laughable. You call Igbo land hamlets. I guess you were blind when Igbos were posting pictures of their ''village'' homes. It was on purpose. To ridicule you imbeciles who sit in their caves and holes and declare themselves best in everything.

Truth is you Yorubas are painfully backward despite your free and worthless education. You can't claw yourselves out of a polythene bag if your lives depended on it.

Unfortunately for you i.d.iots, the rest of Nigeria, especially Igbos, know you in and out, your history, how you live and how disgusting your livestyles are.

From Oshogbo to Ibadan, you people are not having it good and do not make me start posting disgusting pictures of where you call homes. Little wonder why all of you became lagosians all of a sudden.

Ask any Igbo or easterner who has ever travelled to Lagos, the shock they often exhibit, once they cross into yoruba land. Apart from Akure, all you see is thick forest after thick forest with occassional appearance of shanty settlements. This is what you call ''sophistication''

The whole god-damned SW is a massive slum not fit for human habitation. Sometimes when i pass the odor-filled southwest, i thank the Most High that i am an easterner.

From Onitsha to Enugu, from Owerre to Uyo, from Eket to Abakeleke, whenever you pass through these cities, you would recognize that there are humans living there but not just any kind of Nigerian but ingenious, industrious and well cultured people dwelling there, a people with pride. The unimaginable structures after structures molded by man that greet you is a testimony that you have crossed into region of greatness once you enter the SE.

You all should know that this is 2013 where at a blink of an eye, people can disprove your lies with concrete evidence and pictures.

The SW is a mess including lagos.

And to the tout asking why Igbos move to Lagos, you must be an i.diot if you do not know that it is a tiny fraction of Igbos who traverse between the SE and Lagos due to business reasons (the Wharf, Airport etc) and due to the fact that most relevant government institutions are located there. Igbos do not, i repeat, do not move to the SW (as the rest of them outside Lagos are nothing to write home about) but Lagos.

The vast majority of Igbos are in the SE, it's neighbouring cities or outside the country.

You yorubas are a disgrace and a massive joke. All over europe begging for drinks in the club from Igbo boys.

*spits*[/quote]Oh dear, don't be so hard on the Yorubas. Beneath their chest-thumping persona ( wa-wa-wa aka giri giri gbam gbam), they're actually overly sensitive. Let's not be so hard on them. At least for the sake of my best friend, Akin.

Orlando Owoh: Enugu State is as unsafe as any state in the South East. In the South West we hardly experience insecurity like kidnapping. The only time it was reported in Osun State, when the Speaker's wife was kidnapped, it was Igbo boys that kidnapped her. They were arrested in Ogun State by a local vigilantee group and she was released.
While in the South West, I saw highly placed people walking freely without escort. I have seen the former VC of Osun State University, Prof. Sola Akinrinade driving himself. Just last week I saw the elder sister of Governor Segun Mimiko of Ondo State, Prof. Joke Bestman walking freely in Ile-Ife. Can this happen in the South East where a VC with security was kidnapped?

Bros you can lie oh! Enugu is the safest state in Nigeria. So stop trying to controvert the incontrovertible. Your dear Oyo state people are busy misshaping 2 year olds due to the chronic severe poverty there.

Three men said to have been involved in the kidnap of Titilayo, the wife of former military governor of Oyo State, Brigadier Oluwole Rotimi, were, on Monday, paraded by the Oyo State Police Command.

The arrested suspects are Sunday Akaihire (33), Godwin Mfon (38), Kingsley Ndoyoinsin (29) while a former employee of the abducted Ibadan-based businesswoman called Daniel, who reportedly led the gang, reportedly died in December, 2012 as a result of mob action in Lagos.
