babasolution:
Northerners are in billions in the south,if southerners are in millions in the north

hahahaha, I know your brain is rotten but pls ask your mother how many igbos are in the north and how many northerners are in Igbo Land.

Beautiful women. And that's all.

babasolution:
I challenge anyone to mention one value of the north to Nigeria,just one value the north brings.No one should mention food,as every region is capable of producing all its food.The south provides the sea coast,oil and gas,cocoa,sesame seed(middlebelt), palm oil,entertainment, sport etc.Who can mention one value of the north to Nigeria.Why do they feel so important, if not that the southern leaders are fools.

The North feeds you every day, the food they send to every corner of Nigeria is valued at billions of Naira daily which circulates through economy our economy and you are asking about value.

The question should be what value do you bring to the table from your own region that's actually the poorest and weakest economically.

Oghene1st:
You failed to realise that the most useless region in Nigeria is the South West, and the least useless is South East.

The North is useful in agriculture. They produce majority of the agric products consumed in Nigeria. Food sufficiency is very important in an economy.

The South South is useful with Oil and Gas in high volume which is the major source of income for Nigeria.

But what can you say of the West and East?

You stylishly mentioned sea coast and cocoa to make the West relevant but forgot that the sea port there was constructed by the federation with money earned from the whole of the federation, it is not owned by South West. Cocoa is 90% extinct. How much are we making from the cocoa? How is cocoa relevant to the common man?

Southeast is not that completely useless like the South West. The East has high concentration of gas. Both are source of good revenue for the country.

So the most usesless region in Nigeria is South West.

From an humble South Southerner.

access to sea alone is on of the biggest revenue spinners in the world that is why China U.S. and Russia they drag Ocean especially China so bro and calling a region useless shows how senseless you are . The biggest asset of any country is not gold nor oil but it’s population

babasolution:
I hope to bring to light the massive wrong,cheating,deception done to southerners by the Nigerian system and by Nigeria

And after this what follows? Insults and counter insults on this thread and nothing more

Quote from a less informed individual. Biggest asset is population and India with Nigeria can't be compared with developed nations with far lesser population. How do you think bro? North with their population can't survive without South South with a far lesser population.

Biggest asset in the world currently is not population but scientific advancement.

mrvitalis:
Feed the nation with what exactly ?... Food we can get far cheaper from Cameron n Benin Republic?

Dont even mention cow and goat those come from Chad and central Africa republic north is just transit

Yam is from Benue , veggies like carrot n the rest ...come from pleatue ...so what exactly do north contribute

The food are they even giving it for free ? So south even provided exclusive market for them

Cow is around 120k to 150k elsewhere

Those States you mentioned are southern,saying people shouldn't mention food is like remove China from electronics. Northern have absolute advantage of food

The south West provides human resources. The best schools, best teachers, best infrastructure, banks,real estate(most expensive properties are in Lagos) commerce and industry is in the South west. If you're an entertainer and you don't find your way to Lagos, you'll only be known in your village.

No matter what you produce, it still has to find its way to Lagos/Ibadan if you want to sell.

mrvitalis:
So what do we import from north onion and tomatoes what else ?
We give them garri and plan oil ...what stops north from growing cassava ?

There is something in economics called comparative advantage theory look it up if your brain can comprehend it

hahahaha. Pls stop fooling yourself. I just pray by April ipob should implement the cow ban and the north stop food from going to the east, that time you will know the truth. Oh! I forget you are not even staying in the east. Who knows maybe you are in the north writing this rubbish.

Say Lagos not South West. Every state in Nigeria has a stake in the economy of Lagos State. Lagos is in the same position with Abuja. Every state of the federation has a stake in both. Every tribe has a stake in both. My tribe has a stake in Lagos and Abuja. For your info, I'm Urhobo and my kinsman is the Rep member representing Amuwo Odofin - Oghene Egoh and your current commissioner for budget - Mr. Sam Egube. There are people of other tribes who are not Yorubas holding various political offices. You won't know the implications of this until the country is dissolved.

The point is that we are all useless in this country, if not ,how can we all open our eyes wide open and Buhari rule us for 8 years

Redcrafton:
The north contribute more than the SW. This is a fact.

The SW contribution is the seaport in Lagos.

Eastern seaports can do the same if harnessed.

the se contribute nothing

South West .... ? NOTHING BUT NOISE

Middle belt oga they have said it they are not north they are more south than North

Do u understand that the area being referred to as middle belt includes Southern Kaduna, taraba and parts of gombe and Bauchi too?

Food....they are the highest producers of Pepper, tomatoes, yams, onions, beans, meat, rice....to mention a few. Nigeria is a system....if we break it, there will be huge gaps.

Normal sentimental IPOB arguement. Where is Lagos located? Who are the indigenous occupants of Lagos? Every region has its own hub ,are there not Yoruba in Onitsha? Can I because of that deny it's Igbo?What of the Igbo people in Kano,will you because of that say it's not an Hausa city?

To answer your question ,Ibadan also has a huge population that does almost everything I've said in the last post.


Besides, it is the openess of Yoruba people that has allowed the South West to develop. You can be from anywhere and purchase Land in Lagos or South west. Countless people from south-south and East occupy Student Union posts across the South west. Unlike other regions ,this can't happen. This is the major secret of the development in South West ,our hospitality.

Okay! Let me break it down for you. Every zone has its economic hub. Like East is Enugu, South is PH, and West is Yoruba but I insist that Lagos is to be treated like Abuja as every state has a stake in both. The true owners of Lagos and Abj has no political influence in their homeland. Why? Because it is overtaken by the interest of every Nigerian. In Lagos, they are the Awori people. In FCT, they are the gwaris. Mention one person that is an Awori or indigene of Lagos who has become a Governor of Lagos state and one person who is an indigene of Abuja that has become the minister of FCT.

If the south east is useful as you mentioned, every part of Nigeria will be scrambling to compensate them with the presidency as they did for South west and South South but despite all the Biafran noise no body cares, after all apart from killing fellow Igbos what can the south east use to hold Nigeria to Ransome? Nothing! The oil and gas you mentioned belong to the south south while the south west controls commerce and industries! Buhari even said you guys aren't serious about leaving Nigeria, in his words: where are they going? They are just like a dot In a circle! I don't pay any attention to their noise!

In 2023, just to show how Inconsequential the south east is: another president will emerge and he won't come from the south east.

If the south west goes into turmoil the nation's economy will collapse, if the south east goes into turmoil only the Igbos resident there will suffer! Fact!!

Where is Lagos located? What you see in Lagos happens all over the world. Where do you think London gets its money from? Sychelles ,Switzerland, UAE ( Dubai)? From foreigners.

Should we because of that say London is not in England or Dubai is not an Arab city?

Borno was a historical hub in North-east,but it's people gave home to terrorists,look what it has become.

What do people complain about in the North? Religious killings at the slightest opportunity. How about South Africa? Xenophobia. It's time you gave Yoruba people the kudos they deserve. The only reason you people can " develop" Lagos as you claim is because the Yorubas allow you and are hospitable.

Calabar was the first capital ,not Lagos. If we go by your arguement Cross river too should be as developed as Lagos.

First Calabar was the first capital during the colonial era, a period of no revenue from oil, and much was not done there. Lagos was the capital of Nigeria during colonial era and during military regime and oil revenue where pumped into it before it was moved to Abuja that is experiencing development aided by oil.

You need to know that Lagos and Abuja are the only places in Nigeria where a non indigene can become a Governor or Minister and there won't be any issues. Why? Like I said, every state, tribe has a stake I both. For the other states, non indigene can't be a Governor, house of rep member, house of assembly member, senator, special adviser except on the mercy of the indigenes, commissioner, head of parastatal, etc.

What will be the implication of you living in Lagos when the country is divided other than tax you to death with residential permit and high cost visa?.

Why is it that your intelligence is always equals village people unless you leave your retard village to come and live in SW?

Your argument about SW is illogical and senseless

If not for Lagos, South West has no economic viability nor development strides enough to go head to head with South South. It is Lagos that is the saviour of South West, all thanks to all Nigerians.

My point is that the so called stake you talk about exists because Yoruba people allow it. Why don't you go to the north or else where and go and have stake .When your stake can wake up one morning and die .


The non indigenes that became governors are Yoruba .Doesn't matter if they are Aworis or not.

You are very dumb for this your palmwine joint talk. Lagos indigene us made up of 3 tribes, Awori, Ijebu and Egun. Your half baked education has turned your senses upside down that's why you think only Aworis are indigenious to Lagos State. Mind you, every Yoruba son's has a stake in Lagos and not useless impostor who cannot answer his region name other than to attach himself to other in order to feel good

I have always been saying that Abuja and Lagos are the same thing. Every state and tribe has a stake in both.

Is Abuja not North? Go to the High Court of Abj if you won't see southerner as a judge and staff. South southerners are in various positions in bodies set up for the development of FCT - Abuja. What else is a stake? Is a Northerner a judge in any of high court of the states in south south?

Do you actually understand what is called stake?

Abuja proper is Federal Capital territory .Most people who work there are government workers or benefit from government. Forget about stake. Abuja was built from scratch for Administrative functions.
