Lagos is headquarters of more than 98% of multinationals firms in Nigeria most of the estates you see in Lagos where all financied by them, Lagos was built by all Nigerians and foreigners unlike Anambra that's 100% being built by Igbos, if not for marginalization, if Anambra was in the north, Onitsha city blessed with international waterway the River Niger, also Anambra blessed with huge gas deposit and oil, if north will not deploy all Nigeria resources to dredge the River Niger or harness the huge gas and oil, they know what they are doing, they are wasten billions searching for oil in barren land in the north, we will laugh best at last, at least we are learning from their mistakes

[b[s]]All kinds of projects are coming up in Lagos.[/b]







Majority of the projetcs have ZERO federal input. From urban rail networks, to world class bus terminals, to BRT systems, to entire new metropolises like Eko Atlantic.

If Lagos can do all this stuff without seceding from Nigeria, why can't OnItsha?

Why can't Onitsha build an 'Eko Atantic' of the East?

If all the money spent by IPOB in its dumb agitation was used for attracting major investments to the East, by now the entire East would have been a construction site.

Just like Lagos. angry

Mr rotten-toothed abooki maloo with coconut water for brains, Onitsha wasn't even a state capital for ONE DAY but Lagos was FEDERAL CAPITAL for 70 YEARS. Huge difference Mr cretinous Abokii. Huge difference. grin grin

Onitsha was built, destroyed during the war by you sahelian monkeys and vandals and REBUILT AGAIN. All by sheer sweat and grit of the Igbo man.
grin grin

I am only saying this for record purpose not to educate your empty coconut skull alias Ori agbon. An empty skull is an empty skull, even if we invoke common sense into flesh and blood and transplant in into your muslim abooki skull, it will melt away. grin grin

The picture you posted here is Lagos Abi?

Eko Atlantic belongs to Lagos?

So you think every state should bring in a Lebanese to develop her shores for her

How much do they give you fools to do the Devil work

Miserable fool is that to say there is no slum in Onitsha.


booscy:
Show the full picture of Lagos with all the slums.

The perpetually flooded Lekki and Ajah.

Rotten Mainland.

Even after being the pre independence capital of amalgamated Nigeria for 46 years and post independence Federal Capital Territory for 31 good years with billions of petrodollar bankrolling infrastructure and tactical economic emasculation of other regional seaports for only Lagos to work, which is now telling on the Apapa/Oshodi corridor.
Situation of foreign embassies and consulates, billions sunk into making the Murtala Mohammed International the aviation hub of Nigeria and almost the only functional international airport.

Onitsha was built by individuals without Government help.
No federal government presence, No seaport just a non functional riverport, No single foreign consulate, No airport yet vibing real hard.

So there's no basis for the comparison.

How foolish can one be without an atom of sensible reasoning like a normal human being

Is this deluded op not aware that Lagos was the capital of Nigeria for donkey years?

Is he ignorant of the fact that the oil boom of the 1970's was when most of the infrastructure and development of occurred in Lagos?

Hasn't he ever heard that term called ship Armada during the 1970's when vast numbers of ships where floating close to the Lagos ports due to enormous earnings that led to unbridled imports?

Hasn't Lagos remained the economic capital of Nigeria since then with the Federal government pumping resources into it yet you want Onitsha with zero federal government investments or attention to develop like Lagos?

That sh1t you're smoking has really damaged your brain. Tufiakwa!!

Everything in onitsha today is owned by igbos. We have been developing every part of igbo land since 1970. The onitsha you see today is because of the hardwork of igbos. There is no federal government owned property in onitsha except the army Barack. Just shut your mouth.

LISTEN REAL GOOD.
TWO THINGS GAVE LAGOS SERIOUS ADVANTAGE. LAGOS WAS A FEDERAL CAPITAL FOR YEARS AND DURING THAT TIME IT WAS THE FEDERAL GOVERNMENT THAT DEVELOPED IT.
SECOND IS THE FEDERAL PORTS THROUGH THE INSTRUMENTALITY OF THE OCEAN.
BE THE TIME THE FEDERAL CAPITAL WAS MOVED TO ABUJA, LAGOS HAS BEEN FULLY DEVELOPED.

Isn't this a senseless comment remove Onitcha from whatever hell it is n part of igbo can match ordinary Ajah. You Sha can lie Ajah was developed after the capital was moved from Lagos. Small time Eko Atlantic will be operational n we will listen to the new claim from Igbo on how gas money was use to develop it because it was the state capital.

How you Igbos deride your pathetic soul in extreme foolishness is simply beyond me.

How can u compare onitsha to lagos. Why not compare onitsha to Oshogbo, abeokuta, ado ekiti, ore. All these places were not destroyed during the civil war.
The fact yoruba states that the not witness destruction during the civil war are being compared to the east should be embarrassing for all yorubas. How can a region that was destroyed during the civil war catch up with you and even overtake you. That shows yoruba states have been in deep slumber.
Tomorrow they start boasting about Lagos. If yorubas built Lagos, then replicate it in the 5 other sw states
