Delusions of zombiesm
All these development commissions are simply chop for the boys
Nothing meaningful will come out of it
You only choose to delude yourselves into some grand plans for regionalism cause that's what gives you oxygen to continue to support your politicians
Meanwhile, will Ondo still be in NDDC or it's now transferred to SWDC? grin grin
Work on your reasoning. It's poor
First, Ondo would still be part of nddc and swdc.
I pity those who takes you naysayers seriously, always eager to show you little education online.
SW is going places . Very soon, non indigenes and haters won't be allowed here.

U can cry on my mention.

Have lost all hope in this criminal higgack democracy in Nigeria
So what are your options and alternatives to this criminal hijack democracy in our country?

“The worst illiterate is the political illiterate, he doesn’t hear, doesn’t speak, nor participates in the political events.

He doesn’t know the cost of life, the price of the bean, of the fish, of the flour, of the rent, of the shoes and of the medicine, all depends on political decisions. The political illiterate is so stupid that he is proud and swells his chest saying that he hates politics.

The slowpoke doesn’t know that, from his political ignorance is born the prostitute, the abandoned child, and the worst thieves of all, the bad politician, corrupted and flunky of the national and multinational companies.”

Ask your grandfather grin grin

The regional kind of government your grandparents destroyed is what President, Omoluabi, Jagaban Tinubu is bringing back.

You know what that meanshuh

Your parents set the country back by about 60 years from Jan 15, 1966, (and then you step back and start blaming everyone else - victim mentality).

But Tinubu is now trying to rebuild it. It won't be done in a day, a year or 2 years. But it can be done with consistency and determination.

Your dot region now have SEDC. Let's see if i.pob and Ekpa will now give you breathing space.

As for SWDC, we are matching forward!!! We are not looking back.

I hope all your people selling fan yogo and doing fraud in SW will now go back to help rebuild your godforsaken, erosion laden, terrorist infested land.

Don't get angry. Just read between the lines and act now.

As for Nnamdi Kanu, it will be in custody till 2031 (and all of you can only shout and scream - nothing will happen). It's like the hen jumping and screaming when the hawk carry her chickens - that's the only thing she can do. She cannot stop the hawk.

I don't know what happens after 2031. But all I know is Tinubu is pressing on.

If any region like, it should become lackadaisical and continue to blame Tinubu for its woes. Nothing concern anybody.

Tinubu till 2031.

My hypothesis is named after cocoa house because it was the first if such project in nigeria
Very funny, the hypothesis is directed at cocoa house because it was first of its kind. So how is it a wasteful priority? If you have asked the people around you that were older enough then to explain the high value of that house on the economy of the entire country, then u will know what to say. Hope you are aware that it's the success of that Cocoa house that gave birth to sky scrapers in Nigeria. Remember the 1st story building in Nigeria is in Badagry and still standing till today, reason you can build duplex triplexes etc today.

I have better things doing, unlike you, who carries SW matter on your head, while abandoning your SE region. You should be more concerned about your SE, where nafdac is bursting their drug business daily.

Ondo is not SS,
Ondo is part of nddc, because it has oil.
Cross river in SS is not , because it does not have oil.
Ondo is part of nndc and Swdc
Akwa ibom, river, delta, edo, bayelsa are part of nddc and ssdc.
Cross river is part of ssdc, but not nndc

Pls, learn to read small.

Cocoa House... That is a symbol of what I call cocoa house sickness...its my economy theory of what is wrong with Nigeria

Cocoa house sickness - when a country or state use huge chunk of money to build feel good or legacy project that is not economically viable just to show off

Especially when their re other economic pressing issues... And most times it's done with borrowed money
sincerely you no get sense, do you know why it is called COCOA HOUSE, because it was revenues from Cocoa that Awolowo Government built it with, meanwhile majority of other projects were built from borrowing from World Bank, IMF among others e.g Kainji Dam, National Assembly, Federal Secretariat among Phase 1 to 4 others, our roads etc. But Awolowo buile OAU, Stadium, setup many industries that has packed up because of mismanagement and bad leadership even the then roads with proceeds from Cocoa

DeLaRue:
This is regional administration taking shape.

If the President is re-elected, and the economy continues to improve, in about 4 years time, I can imagine the President wanting several federal government responsibilities delegated to regional Commissions.

If each regional commission can be getting N1 trillion subvention in 4 years time, and more in future years, that will transform them into administrative power houses.

The management of all existing federal roads within their respective regions can be handed over to them. Agricultural development, housing etc, even health can be handed over to them.

The federal government should focus on defense, foreign affairs, internal affairs (interior), and national economy.

If Mr Tinubu can deliver all these before he leaves government, thereby reducing the focus on the centre, he would have delivered an acceptable form of regional administration without the North being able to block it.
I respect your brilliance

He built hospitals, textiles, universities, radio and TV stations, industrial estates, schools and several manufacturing companies, some of which are still operating today. The Cocoa house was just an icing on the cake.
I think he was just getting started before everything was truncated.
Yorubaland would have developed at least to the level of south Korea by now.
even banks

One thing I like about South West, they don't let party or religious affiliations affect their unity.

This is why those people trying to split them across those lines will always fail and do so woefully.

By now you should know this is restructuring through the back door, since you people up north will not allow restructuring through legislation, it will brought in through executive initiatives

Cocoa House is still an architecturally stunning building that symbolises the essence of progressive Yoruba leadership the "Sage" , Awolowo, and other Yorubas exemplified.

It is an inspired and iconic choice that simply needs modernisation and sympathetic restoration. It can be retrofitted to look even better than FAMFA tower in Ikoyi owned by Folorunsho Alakija.
Big LOL

He wants us to pull the cocoa house down so tomorrow he can say, Cocoa house never existed, and that they built the first highise in the east.

"Cocoa House sickness"? Can't you Igbos ever just read and waka pass on Yoruba matter? You must alway comment prettily and bitchily like pre-menstrual women. Bruv, get the eff out of this thread.
this is not about igbos abeg ...what's stopping them from building another one?much more modern,I don't think you have been to cocoa house before to understand the level of challenges that building face due to no usage that stem for loss of power to power the elevators,that was the major cause of non usage of the facility,they can just remodel it while the development commission build a new structure for ibadan skyline .. simple.. besides the commission has its board who will eventually take the final decision,not the Governors,I don't know why they are deliberating on. FG agency ..not their purview,they have DAWN,Odua investment,the kind of frauds that goes on in Odua investment will make you cry,they should focus on recovering it's assets, doing more business and investment with it .

Does your citizens force also envisage Fidel's brother succeeding him after death?

It's an alliance for a common cause that brings people together. The tension and motivation rises when it's long overdue. We are quickly approaching dat stage with our corrupt political system.A bomb is a very quiet weapon untill you flipped it pin.
