I'm Based In Lagos, This Is Where I Go When I Say I'm Going To The Village. by Workch(op):
The picture below is a drone picture of where my family house is located in Ibeku, Umuahia.
We came to Lagos to do business, it does not mean that we go back to trees when we say we are going to the village.

There is a local govt in Ogun state whose communities have never seen electricity for the past 100years. It is called Yewa North local govt.

The community is about 50 in numbers and that should concern u more than anything else.

I show u evidence and u can fact check if in doubt.

Really, GEJ? That one na person?

So why hasn't other ports been functioning optimally if it's a deliberate?

Can Lagos generate revenue if business don't move to lagos because of the ports?

What exactly is stopping others from having a port?

Even Ogun state already working or already have dry port yet una dey give unnecessary excuse why you can't get yourself one

did I call Aba here, let's forget Aba.
Go to places like Ukwa east and west and see vehicles moving in gutter, pot holes that could fall tankers.

I will say it again, the only place with good road is Osisioma.
Then Ummuna bende has few roads that is not too bad but still can't be considered good

Ogun state indigenous are not crying for port..If truly you need a port, hold your governors accountable.At least, Edo state government is working towards making it's port functioning and they are serious about it.If your 5 states governors can't give you a functioning port, it means you don't need it.

i always advocate that we should stop calling our place a village. It is better we use the word HOME TOWN this is because most of our village is better that our place of residence

There are many communities in Anambra that have never seen electricity in over 100 years. Ogun has better electricity access than Anambra. Do you want evidence? wink

The funny thing is that those that often have that mentality in Lagos, actually came from terrible sh1tholes and dungeons like the picture😂😂.

It's not about port, it's about the people, the culture and the character of the people.

You are hostile, dubious and very aggressive and want people to bring their investment to your region.

How can you be destroying Dangote tankers and except others to come there?

Improve your relationship with other Nigerians and see your region experience massive investment.

Oh I forgot you have no market, not your physical market but the people that could buy your products because of your massive emigration away from home

The end of Civil War politics is beyond your comprehension. Summary, Power - North; Economy - Southwest.

FG will approve and gazette development in the Eastern region on media but you will not see the papers which is a major requirement of a foreign partnership
