After Lagos, Ogun State ought to be next in terms of business development. I hope the oil wouldn't turn to problem in future as been witnessed in the South South. That's why the agitation for resource control is very critical.
Ogun state has the highest number of industries in Nigeria.

South South people are no longer demanding for resource control.

Why? Because the money gotten will simply go into the pockets of politicians.

In 1999, they were demanding 50% derivation. They were given 13% and it just made politicians very rich.

Take a look at NDDC. Probably as much as 90% of disbursed funds for projects lined bigwigs pocket. The masses saw nothing.

God please give Yoruba land more crude oil in their core Yoruba states so that they can become confident enough to fully support the peaceful division of Nigeria because it is their insatiable craven for free crude oil wealth in Niger Delta that have made them so scared and jittery of pursuing their Odudua Nation where they can build their own Yoruba nation as they desire angry
grin busy body….is Ondo state not part of Niger delta? What quantity of oil is produced in your barren sad east compared to Ondo state?

And speaking about division of the country, Yorubas are the only region who are fully ready if Nigeria breakup today because we already have what it takes to be a country with SW being the most developed region and hosting the highest number of economic migrants in the country.

You should worry yourself about your declining region and the mass migration going on because of the insecurity and non economic viability of your barren region.

Ambazonia including Bakassi Peninsula will join (re-join in the case of the latter) Nigeria. The British made a slight mistake in the 1960s.

So, your freedom is in the hands of the Yorubas?

They actually tried but the local quickly dazed them with Voodoo syndrome. They got them blind and confused for a very long time. Anyway, Ipokia is an Island in Ogun State, it's known as fishing Island because fishermen does their fishing and most always have their rest at the island before lurching out to fishing at dawn.

This is really a plus for the good people of Ogun State....but will they be joined to Niger Delta or Form their own Wild wide West? Na question I dey ask o... 😂

Yorubas doesn't need oil before any reasonable breakout of Nigeria because they got all it takes developed without oil. If you doubt, just query Google Gemini or ChatGPT the region to develop fast if Nigeria should breakout today. You people will just sit down there be expecting Yorubas to fight your fight for you when your leaders are there enjoying the loot as well

Naija delta will not like this
says who? In the Niger delta, we wish every other state produces oil and the environmental pollution shifts to the north or south west. Afterall, the oil produced elsewhere we will still get our share based on population. At most if Una no wan share for us Una go fight for restructuring which is even better or the breakup of Nigeria. We are tired of feeding a high percentage of useless 200M population who contribute nothing to us and fight us politically. We are tired of environmental pollution, poisoning of our rivers and stealing politicians. We prefer a state without solid minerals or crude resources so that brainless thieving politicians can leave the stage for those with initiatives

Yorubas are the reason Nigeria haven't divided.


We have 3 major tribes in Nigeria, namely; Igbo, Hausa and Yoruba.


Igbo want the country divided for peace and progress of all Nigerians.


Hausa and Yorubas don't want Nigeria divided because they are using politics of nepotism to get hold of federal politics which they are using to empower their people and develop their regions to the detriment of others.


So if Yoruba also summon the courage to seek for their own Oduduwa country, and Igbos too want their own country, Hausa and others have no option than to let it be.

But in a situation whereby it is only Igbos pushing for division of Nigeria, it will be difficult to achieve because Yorubas will always gangup with other tribes to fight Igbos and to stop them from leaving Nigeria. But if Yorubas or Hausas also start seriously to seek for their own country like Igbos have done, Nigeria will divide peacefully, and that is why I am praying for Yoruba land and Hausa lands to have crude oil in plenty so that you guys can have the courage and confidence to allow Nigeria divide peacefully for the good of all Nigerians because Nigeria as it is now is not working and you and your people know it.
