Yes strip Lagos and make Onitsha the Nigerian financial capital. Just remember that Onitsha will then become "No man's land"

PulaPower:
This your link is worth making a thread out from bro..

What a loads of basic informations..

Indeed. It is instructive that some people have not changed their covetously malevolent and expansionist disposition over decades now.

The reason for this, from their historical behaviour, is easy to deduce which is that at the core of their belief system is the megalomanic delusion they were put on Earth to subjugate and dominate others in their own SE domain and beyond all the way to other regions of Nigeria and even other African nations etal.

Demolished properties didn't stop the floods of 24/25 season as being presently witnessed. Now I ask, why did they stop the demolitions, when you claimed houses built on drainages caused the floods? Or is it that the remaining houses are owned by Politicial lackeys of TINUBU and APC? You are JOKERs..real JOKERs.

Leave Anambra State ..why is it that when called out you seek to make reference to other parts for justification of your acts. Do you thing and own up..don't be a sissy. As regards the Odumeje church, do you know that we was relocated to another place? As copy cats do you relocate owners of demolished structures?


Peter Obi's relative had his property demolished by unscrupulous persons working for LASG and when called out, they sent you and your crew with propaganda to justify Nonsense. The question remains..why hasn't the said owner of the property 'according to you' come out to lay claim to the said property?

You burn their shops
You close their markets
They pay exorbitant taxes
Agencies headed by Yoruba harrass them.


You think people don't see your antics abi? Just pray TINUBU rules till 2099 sef.

As regards being allover your land...is your land NOT in NIGERIA? ..are IGBOs not also all over NIGERIA? It's only in Yoruba land you see inferiority complex manifest totally.. How and why do you think they ought to RESPECT you when it's a free society as you claim. Will a citizen of USA..UK..be harrased by locals of another state if they relocate? You are truly jokers.

The North has Serikin Fulani in Lagos, who makes politicial statements. Have you even said anything?
The North fights your touts constantly in Lagos and even maim you in your SW States , have you said anything?

Your statement of Awolowo reeks of hubris.

You are using IGBOs and other Southern tribes as a buffer to impending Northern domination of your region

Just know this.. Southern Unity is DEAD.

aswani:
Uncle, or Anti, properties demolished in Lagos state cut across all tribes. Why should certain people be exempt and allowed to build on waterways that will cause issues in the area when the water can't find ways to escape naturally?Some of Odumeje's church in Onitsha was destroyed by Anambra's version of LASTMA for that same reason. Are Anambra chasing Ndigbo away too?

No one is expelling anybody, all we are wondering is "Why only certain people crying about street naming", why?

Ndigbo have been all over Ala Yoruba for over 4 generations now, not just Lagos by the way, and they will never go back and neither should they as the locals have never asked them to plus they are nicely settled and integrated there.

Go and ask any of your forefathers which part of the country it was that their rent money was kept for them after the Biafra war. That they were welcomed back with open arms when they returned. Ask Obisia Nwakpa who took care of him when his parents returned to the East and deliberately left him behind.

Go and ask Yakubu Gowon how Chief Awolowo batted hard for ACB after the war, despite people in the government going against him. ACB were told to follow poor financial banking etiquette, straight after the war, ensuring Ndigbo traders could borrow money without surety and default at will in order to get Ndigbo's trading structure back on their feet.

You want your country, right? Elect senators that will propose the motion to in Abuja.

As for the other stuff you typed about North and Yoruba, I am not going to dignify them with a response as they don't deserve one.

esnbrutality:
Who wants them to relinquish their hold. Nobody ofcourse, but when same people talk BIAFRA let them keep their mouths out of people's business.

Let them stop UNITY BEGGING and let people that want a seperate country have their peace.

Don't you think so?

"Unity begging"? That you continue to trot out this insincere and hugely discredited garbage, totally at odds with the reality of Nigeria today, is proof of the duplicity and hidden agenda of you lot.

For one, why are you lot not uncompromsingly charging your legislators, who continue to collect Nigerian salary and emoluments , like the hypocritical Biafra senator Abaribe, to lead the charge for constitutional amendment to allow the secession you claim to want?

Sane people know that secession for any region remains impossible without constitutional amendment courtesy of Azikiwe's greed for central control of Nigerian power and resources that made him oppose and defeat Awolowo's push for a secession clause to be included in our constitution so that regions can leave Nigeria amicably when they desire.

When you shout Biafra daily and shun the need to push for constitutional amendment that will grant you your own nation, is that not proof of the saying "insanity is doing the same thing over and over again to expect a different outcome"?

Secondly how can balanced and objective observes, whether then be Britons or Ghanaians and Kenyans, reconcile that fact that a people who claim to want their own nation, and number circa 40 million people, have probably over 15 million Igbos living in the regions of others they insist they need their own nation to be away from?

Is it that you don't have examples of how people serious about secession worldwide behave to draw inspiration from so you know what sincere push for independent nationhood should resemble?

I could go on all day but suffice to say no one takes your Biafra noise seriously because your insincerity and duplicity, that undermines your claims of Biafra as nothing but cheap gaslighting of others, is glaring.

It is why no one , globally, reckons with your Biafra noise whereas the world knows the Yorubas will achieve what is shown below soon and many decades after you lot have been shouting Biafra redundantly, insincerely and duplicitously.

Per Peter Obi's relatives property.

He was given multiple opportunities to identify himself and turn up in court, he refused. The owner of the land then rightfully got a possession order and the property was rightfully cleared.

Not long after, Peter Obí with camera in hand turns up at the property and claims "we are finished in this country" over something that went through a transparent process.

The lady has produced her C of O and court posession order publicly, we haven't heard pim from Peter Obi's brother, interesting that.

If all these things you listed happen to Ndigbo traders in ala Yoruba, it is interesting they are staying put, isn't it.

Whole markets, or huge chunk of markets are handed over to Ndigbo to run in a Lagos state deep in ala Yoruba, yet you are here crying because they rename streets to their own (Yoruba) names. Where else does that happen, even in Aligbo, Imo state will never do such for Nd'Enugu etc?

Once again, the rest of your stuff is not worth responding to as based on fallacy.

See you...see shamelessness

No need to engage you based on this submission of yours. You are plainly pathetic.

Land rent .that is irrelevant to cost of property?
Increase it astronomically so that the property itself becomes useless, so that they can demolish it themselves and sell the barren land off.

They need BIAFRA so you can have your paradise..

Unity begging is petty.

Writing long stories won't dissuade the obvious facts. Parasites are parasites. If you aren't , stop disturbing yourself about their aspirations.

You can as well ask your co-travellers to move Lagos away from its position and take it far away from the ocean.

Nigeria relies on Lagos and by extension South West for survival.. the State is paying dearly for it till date, lots of illegal migrants, increased crime rates and disorderliness, you name it.
Lagos has become a shadow of itself as a result of leadership failure that allowed every tom, dick and harry access to the State.

It becomes "long stories" when others discombobulate and deconstruct you lot with verified and superior facts/argument that highlight your patently unreasonable nature.

Lol...so, according to ur post now. Lagos was capital for 23 years.
My question is simple.
Abuja has been capital for over 30 years now. Why is it not yet the economic hub of Nigeria?
Abi na after e reach 100 years?

SouthSouth1914:
Northern southern protectorates, independence, etc. Didn’t you attend the four walls of any school?

So, if it was after independence it means Lagos was capital for 23 years right?
Now Abuja has been capital for over thirty years now.
My question is simple:
Why has Abuja not become the economic hub of Nigeria and why are people still flooding to Lagos and not Abuja if being the capital is something to grapple on.
Shey u go answer without insults.

Paying of land rents to government is a legitimate and civic responsibility for the smooth running of government.

We'll buy more land and pay more rent to government

Land rent is paid to the land land owners

A huge chunk of Lagos today was developed by Western Region ergo Ndi Yoruba money.

When that huge chunk of Lagos state was carved out of Western Region, no monies were returned to the rest of the former region so those from the states you mentioned are staying put as Lagos state happened to them when they were still living peacefully in their region jẹjẹ.

Only one tribe, only one of all the tribes in Nigeria that lives in Lagos, is complaining about being chased out of Lagos, why? Who is chasing you out sef?

Ordinary street renaming by Ndi Yoruba is causing all this crying by that one particular set of people, feel free to play Ndi Yoruba return match in your own state then and allowed us rest, chikena.

E no easy I must say, imagine a human sacrifices of unimaginable proportion and still the target remain elusive.

WizardOfNG:
God bless you. Look at Gbenga Daniel highlights how Yorubas are endangering themselves because they continue to behave most commendably, of the four major ethnic groups, to foster peace, unity and 'one Nigeria' welcoming character leading all and sundry to now be moving to the SW in droves and indicating future problems for indigenes.

What Nairaland Forumers should ask themselves is, if they choose to relocate from the SS, SW or North Central today, whether Anambra, Imo or Zamfara, Borno etal wil be their preferential first choice whereas the SW, along with the SS, remains the first choice of most Nigerians today.

In other words, those causing the most socio-economic problems for all Nigeria , i.e the terrorised SE and Core North, are the most unreasonably critical of what they view "Yoruba leadership" of Nigeria today without seeing they and their land offer nothing to the workability or glory of 'one Nigeria' currently.

The North will brag and blackmail with agriculture without being reasonable enough to understand it is the terrorism they groomed, while the SW was growing as a relatively peaceful and welcoming region for socio-economic activities, that has virtually ruined food sufficiency for us all as farmers cannot farm optimally.

They are blackmailing Tinubu today over insecurity, citing that as an excuse for demanding he leaves in 2027, yet we know PBAT is tasked with finding solutions to the existential security problem the North caused for all Nigeria over decades now.



They have made their regions net deficits to Nigeria currently yet the SW is an asset to Nigeria with how she has , in a troubled time, not worsened to become incapable of offering everything Nigerians need to thrive, be that employment and comparative peace/security, as the North and SE have.

The ingratitude of the two biggest troublemakers towards the SW is too much and Yorubas are observing their ungrateful and unreasonable mien silently.

They can leave to go to the SW today and begin thriving tomorrow yet which person from the SW wants to go the other way currently? Abi OP can move permanently Zamfara or Borno today without reservation?

This is why Yoruba intelligentsia class, though not louding it, are now seriously focused on regional autonomy because we know 'one Nigeria' is not fair to us and regions like the SS and North Central.

It is cheating and punishing us in favour of those who inordinately and undeservedly draw the most advantages from 'one Nigeria' yet continue to be the most ungratefu terrorised, menacing and socio-economically lagging members of the Union.
