Ibadan you say?
Yet they still nest in their ancient corroded zink roof houses that lived before my ancestors.

So much for IGR. grin

Oga take 100 seats and sit down if you have nothing to say.
The developed part of ibadan outside those old houses are bigger than 80% of all south east cities combined. Uour people troops to ibadan like rats but you'll never see ibadan sons and daughters going to your dirty region for anything. So you should be the one taking the many seats.

It's really sad as you'll expect they'll atkeasg be level with SS. Ibadan has more igr than all of SE for God's sake. Nwafors, yourubas and Nigeri deltans have gone far ahead. Our brothers will rather be selling cassette in lagos, ogun and even ile ife than ever spend 2 weeks in our region because nothing is there.

How can we correct this? Can yorubas ever also want to come to the East for opportunities?
CHAI I MISSED THIS PARTY sad

@OP Do they care?.. as far as they can chestbeat and brag about buying up lands in other regions and turning the people there to tenants, they are okay.

This is why I prefer Northerners in a way.. despite the situation there, they made sure they funnel resources from South to North for development, they've made efforts to search for oil in North using funds from NNPC and so many other notable moves but you see the Igbos, they are never interested in their own region but to push propaganda of biafra and abuse other tribes.

If you think you can't be chased away from West because you bought lands and properties, then you should go back and read history of "Ghana Must Go" under civilian president Shehu Shagari. The Ghanians were sent packing back home to Ghana but today Ghana is doing better than Nigeria in terms of economy and living standards.

SE indegens are the most richest individually. Most people in Nigeria can't afford or spend the way South East people spend thier money. Over 50% mansions in Nigeria are owned by SE individuals and they're not politicians.
Chinedu don come with usual chest beating. You are the richest yet, no Igbo man has ever made the list of the 10 richest Nigerians. You are the richest yet, no Igbo man has been President after Azikiwe. You are the richest yet, the East is underdeveloped. You are the richest yet, you can't have your own Biafra that you've been clamouring for.grin grin

If dem challenge you now,yiu go say Lagos this,Lagos that cos all ofonjas are automatically from Lagos grin
Wetin concern Osus with Lagos?
Lagos has been Yorubaland even before Oyinbo arrived and before Nigeria.
Ibadan was capital and it was the most developed in Nigeria then because Yorubas faced and developed it.Now it is Lagos that Yorubas faced and it is the most developed in Nigeria followed by Ibadan which has more infrastructures than Igboland as a whole.

The east not the most underdeveloped. We have many well to do individuals from the East than most other regions. The mansions in the east are far more than other tribe and in those other tribes...we still have many more rich men that's why they envy us. Igbos are doing well many places in Nigeria and yet they're not in the topten. We have the most number of billionaires and millionaires more than any other tribe. The most richest in numbers.

What will a Yoruba person go and do in your poverty region,
Oh! maybe give you agbo that will make you sit down in your region small.

Yorubas travel to places that are richer than their region like London,America etc not an underdeveloped and backward place like Igboland.Yorubas dominate Small Lagos which is Peckam in Britain because Britain is more developed than Yorubaland

Southeast is not poor. Igbos are excessively populous hence the outpour of people across the world. Igbo villages and towns are still the most densely populated in Nigeria by a wide margin despite the outward migrations. Example this is Aba and you can see the density of highrise which will help you measure households per square kilometer.
