[quote author=DMerciful post=136883615]There was nothing like Nigeria before 1960? You're extremely ignorant[/quote
The entity called Nigeria gain independence in 1960.

Anything that happened before 1960 was/is insignificant as it was being run by the Britain.

So you're saying that the British used your coal money from then eastern region and the groundnuts money from the northern region to develop the western region?

What I meant was that Nigeria as it is now did not exist before 1960 even 1966 self.

Why obsession with Lagos,Lagos this Lagos that,if I'm not mistaking it has been thirty two years now that Lagos has lost its status as capital city of Nigeria to Abuja, nobody is forcing anyone to come to Lagos or establish in Lagos but its potentials are the things drawing people to it,the other states too especially those that are receiving heavy monthly allocations especially those oil producing states should also put something in place to attract investments in to their states, many of these states also have sea.

This unwarranted obsession and pettiness should stop.

I don't have time to engage you but just know that Yorubas will not be allowed to take Lagos without paying the hundreds of billions of dollars the Nigerian State invested in Lagos.

You can make yourselves happy the way Arsenal fans make themselves happy that Arsenal is their club

You are just joking grin

I don't know why ibos are the most tormented when it comes to the issue of Lagos. Meanwhile ibos are among the last group of people to get to Eko

Yeah, they came last to Lagos (in the early 1900s). They came, they saw and they want to dominate

They came much later than 1900s, I'm not talking about isolated cases. And they can't dominate. It's just impossible grin

Unfortunately (for them, at least), they are still trying, albeit, woefully to actualize their 20 years plan (in 1944) to dominate the whole country .

I was watching one of them lauding their character traits the other day, that is, anywhere they go, they dominate, innovate, create etc. No harm in that really however, the problem emerges when the indigenes refused to be dominated in their own by their so-caĺled "african brothers". No body wants to be held hostage in his father's house by foreigners. .
