Biafranboys:
How do I begin to argue with a urine drinking fulani man. Lol. He is too dull to understand

I guess you have not been to south east

Are you hard of hearing or just plain I don't know. Lol

I guess you are from kwara

MrMaestro:
I don't hate Igbos at all, I just put you all in reality when you peddle falsehoods. There is no reality in which Igbos as a group have been more economically sound than Yorubas. I'm still trying to figure out the math that says Igbos contribute the most in Lagos, yet millions MORE Igbos cant even take the SE region to second place in IGR, and instead is second to last. It doesn't make sense. Yet Igbos keep peddling this lie to make yourselves feel good

Regardless, I do sincerely wish every region goes there own way. Nigeria has been more a burden on the Yorubas than a blessing.

Biafranboys:
Why are there more Nigerians in South Africa than South Africans in Nigeria.igbos are travelers and there are lots of yorubas in igbo land as well

There was a time when the city of Hong Kong used to be over 40% of the GDP of the whole of China.

But China one day decided to do the right thing and opened up the rest of the economy.

Eventually all the advantages that Hong Kong had slowly wore out.

Today the city of Hong Kong is only 3% of China’s GDP.

This is what will happen one day to Lagos.

Enjoy the monopoly and the uneven playing field while it lasts.

flokii:
Your South East is shlt.. infact a complete shlthole from experience.

Up till date, pipe borne water is a luxury there, no electricity, no roads, no development whatsoever. They still live like chickens that go to sleep after 6 pm with lanterns. WTF is there to brag about in your glorified villages? Rubbish!

OneTemplate:
Lol. Bitter diatribe spoken like a true hater. No medal for guessing what ethnic group you're from.

Keep fooling yourself. One day you will accept that Lagos has exceptional Yoruba leadership and that's why it's so far ahead. What advantage does Lagos have that they did not try to confer on Abuja.

Lagos is thriving in spite of the FG and not because of it. In fact PDP did it's best to choke and undermine Lagos before APC gained power in 2015.

Haters like you will never grow because you don't understand the saying "don't hate. Appreciate."

Biafranboys:
This is why I am calling on igbos go back home and build go home, leave lagos and Abuja alone

Biafranboys:
How does one peddle falsehood of something everyone can see?

Tell me which other tribe invest in lagos?

If a tribe that was given 20 pounds after the war can make a great come back like this abeg around of applause for the igbos, is it not easy

Remember the federal government does nothing for the south east, we developed our land without help till today

Please don't wish support yoruba nation, we igbos Don taya because of too many blackmail guess what even if I was born in lagos and have more yoruba friends I am still an omo nna

Support biafra as well and remember biafra is bigger than nnamdi kanu

OjukuwuHusband:
Tinubu isn't perfect politician, but we have to make do with what we have.... at least he is a 100000 times better than obasanjo. Still, I agree with you....we need to wake up.

sojfarm:
Can you imagine. And somebody is taking 10% of such proceeds. A lot of co-bastards still want to him to go and loot the national treasury.

Ayomi90:
Reason y Flat heads ar trooping in, better ask to know what the Yoruba ppl did so u can implement such in ur region. God bless Oodua ppl.

StaffofOrayan:
With all these blessings we still have politicians trying to create Yoruba-Fulani like we are are some minority tribe,
We really need to wake up very fast!

Ayomi90:

EmekaA125:
Yorulani
See what desperation is causing una slavemaster and bullionvan thief Tinubu. Yorulani indeed. Too bad

StaffofOrayan:
Una don start again with this image laundry, when Abiola wanted to be president, Tinubu didn't believe in Nigeria, I won't say more than that,
By people he raised politically, I am guessing you are talking about Aregbesola and co?
The most brilliant of his appointees was probably Ambode and he we all know how that turned out,

PROUDIGBO:
Governors in the south-east are either unperturbed about improving their revenue receipts, or they’re just incapable of doing it!

Kindledlight:
Tinubu a sitting senator as at that time didn’t believe in Nigeria?

If only you can explain your point better

EmekaA125:
There's no Lagos without Igbos from the 5 SE states. Some elective positions should be streamlined to accommodate Igbo population in Lagos. This is where political synergy comes in

Deadlytruth:
I thought I alone noticed it. It is so embarrassing to see that Edo has been consistently slipping on the IGR table since Obaseki took over. Before he came on board Edo was at position six with figures that were even threatening to displace the states on positions 4 and 5. But today it has fallen so low to position 11 with states like Anambra and Ogun now trumping it comfortably while other states currently below it are warming up to further subdue it to even lower positions in the next IGR rating to come after this. It is very disturbing a trend which makes nonsense of the purported fight against godfathers allegedly asking for state resources to be shared to them.

OVB123:
My brother, I am just tired of him. If as at the time he took over from oshiomhole 4 and half years ago, the state IGR was around 25 to 26 billion naira, then by now after almost 5 years in office, it should be around 36 or 37 billion naira.
I am so shocked because it was because of this reason that he droved the likes of Nomoreless and Kabaka away. So for me, the increased in IGR, ought to reflect in the year on year rating by NBS.
The same thing we are also experience interms of infrastructures in the state.
My question now is: "what is he doing with all the money, he is receiving as allocation?

StaffofOrayan:
YAWN

Deadlytruth:
You just hit the nail very hard on the head with the bolded. There is no sense in recording lesser and lesser IGR year in year out after claiming to have purportedly blocked the godfathers, tigers and lions from access to the state's revenue. Even his cabinet members, he starves them of decent wages all in the name of cutting governance cost and curbing waste yet all these don't translate to any meaningful increase in the yearly budget. In infrastructure his projects are tokenism in nature.It is really difficult to understand how the man spends revenues and what exactly he spends it on. In his 2017 budget he set aside N4bn for the executive arm of the state government out of the N150 bn total but his political appointees kept on complaining of being paid indecent and ridiculous wages. Right now he has been running a government without a cabinet for the past six months hence not spending anything on salaries of cabinet. The whole thing about Edo State revenue and visible use of it is has been shrouded in mystery under his tenure.

Biafranboys:
Igbos are travelers and business minded and they can even invest in Iraq as long as there is money to be made.

For me I believe anywhere u live is your home

But check this out if igbos decide to leave South West trust me una go feel am, who would fill the gap.. Fulanis?? Yorubas are not business minded, yorubas like soup way Don done

Igbos can develop a forest and turn it into a city

Igbos are almost like the Chinese the difference is Chinese always go back home. And build

Igbos do not lay claim to land, if you sell me your land I am the owner and not you, how do you own a land you sold to me?

MrMaestro:
Yorubas are not business minded, yet three of their states are in the top 6 of highest IGR.

Yorubas are not business minded, yet they have more tech billionaires than all other regions combined. (Flutterwave, Paystack, Calendly, etc.)

Yorubas are not business minded, yet a Yoruba man runs a private equity firm that BOUGHT Gatwick Airport in London

Yorubas are not business minded, yet they have the most economically viable region in the entire country.

Guy, there aren't more Igbos in the southwest than there is in the south east. If igbos were greater business men, the higher concentration of Igbos in the south east should at least make the SE second to the SW in IGR. Instead they're second to last. You all need to face reality. Yorubas are better at business, and creating structure and organization as a group. Igbos are good at being solopreneurs. That doesn't build a business and it certainly doesn't build a nation. You need to understand the difference between the two.

Biafranboys:
Why do we keep arguing about something that is an open secret, I was born and breed in lagos and I know what I am saying.

Yorubas have an economic region because of other tribes, all tribes make the yoruba economy boom even the fulanis with their cows

Fulanis stopped pepper flow and people was crying

There is double taxation in lagos don't you get it, igbos can't take that nonsense in the south east

Do you think the yoruba man is the sole owner of the airport? Lol.. Bros na person day under masquerade.

Na people give dangote money, even innoson he is not the sole owner

Aaa007:
elrufai is really working.
despite Corona he still improved kaduna igr .
I don't know y people hate this guy bt lagos is supposed to be a country of its own. kano really Bleep up

Biafranboys:
How do you know I am typing this from lagos, I am in another continent.

What is the problem with u people must everything be about politics.

Lagos is supposed to be like Singapore with the money they make, let us ask questions

I was born and raise in lagos and I studied in the west and I have the right to ask questions, if yorubas in London are occupying public positions in the UK why can't igbos born In lagos talk about lagos

By right I am a yoruba nation citizen CONFUSED LIAR

But I am more interested in my father's land now biafran land, because guess what even if I was born in lagos to the yorubas I am still an omo nna OMO'YIIIBO and to the fulanis I am still biafran boys YAMIRIN

I am not a follow follow zombie and I ask questions and I do not not like any South Eastern politician the only man I like is Peter obi and the rest are under the boots of the fulanis
