Me I just hate when Igbos think yorubas can't do business and we won't survive with their trade, go and check the multinational businesses driving the economy and work force they are majorly occupied by yorubas and hausa

Until we leave tribal sentiments and address issues, we'll be joking as a nation

No where I made mention of tribe... Address the issue of tribalism without mentioning tribe cos this menace cuts across the nation not just a particular tribe

kerry57:
You too should go to anambra with night bus and nylon so, that the state will make. Lazy outh like u in the words of our late former president.
U see no difference between you and the lazy south Africans

God forbid.
Leave the South west to hustle in Anambra?
That’s going to be from grace to grass.

If it is a good place, the people there won’t be swarming in multitude in night buses to the south west.

mrvitalis:
You think Lagos would be like this without being FCT ? If yorubas built Lagos why haven’t they replicated it ?

Igbos built onitsha ,built aba very similar cities
We built owerri n Enugu similar

Continue the building.
Leave Lagos and SW alone.

You are everywhere, even in the remotest villages in SW.
Stop building our towns; go and build yours

The Igbos have given alot to Lagos Economy just as Lagos has also made them who they are.
Igbo never made Lagos what it is hence they would have replicated the same thing elsewhere. Lagos state is favoured for it's strategic location
Lagos state is favoured for it seaport and high population which serves as market for the Igbos being into trading .
why hasn't they made Anambra like Lagos , is the Igbos in Anambra not the same with the Igbos in Lagos. Anambra, imo, Abia, Enugu and ebonyi are 90% Igbos yet they couldn't replicate Lagos. technical, it's not the present of the Igbos that made Lagos but other factors like functioning Seaports and good administration who have been piloting the affairs of Lagos

UncleAyo:
We also wish they can look homeward and give back to the economy of their region too. And make the region a place every Nigerians will cherish (covet and call a nomansland) and want to call home for her available opportunities.

All region in Nigeria must equally experience economic growth. Not until Yorubaland is overpopulated.

You (literally) can't give what you don't have (- or can't replicate - in your own home)...

Tell them Illbliss if they can hear even though bitter hatred they have against great Igbos will not let them accept this bitter truth but who cares.

They thought hated great Igbos will make Igbos loose their self worth but they don't know their hating is making great Igbos more stronger.

They hate Igbos and Igbos hate them,so the hatred is mutual.

Me? Am I a senator? I don't understand you o. Since when have they put me in charge of amending constitutions?

What part of the comment you replied to said that you are a senator?

Kindly point out the part.

Lets be honest there is some truth to this, everybody living in lagos is working hard and has contributed to it !!

You cant let IGBOs stay in Lagos to sustain you na. You will live alone and IGBOs will live alone and look for new frontiers. As regards the other tribes in the SE after breakup, we shall accommodate as we were accommodated and we shall expel as we were expelled. Simple.

Stop this indirect UNITy begging

lawani:
So you think the millions of Yoruba who live in the old Eastern region will leave the place if Nigeria breaks up? If not, why are you saying Igbos will leave Lagos if Nigeria breaks up?

LAGOS has given a lot to Igbo economy. That's another angle to it.

Same IGBOs still tell you with Confidence that Biafra is utmost...

There is a reason for that...

What part of the comment you replied to said that you are a senator?

Kindly point out the part.

I didn't reply any part of your comment to say I am a senator na. But you said why didn't I amend the constitution all the while? Then my confusion was confused, like

'The president looking clueless, we're used to this. Used to lies and false hope'

Great lines from Tobechukwu Melvin aka IllBliss I must say.

How are Igbos sustaining the Yoruba? You are anywhere you are for your own sustenance. What are Igbo doing in Yoruba land that Yoruba are not doing more in Igbo land? There are trades dominated by the Yoruba in the old Eastern region just like Igbos are known for some things in Yoruba land and if those Yorubas in the East are not making it there they would have returned home. Whatever percentage Igbos are by population in Lagos they are contributing less than that percentage to government revenue because majority of government revenue in Lagos is PAYE and most Igbos are not in formal employment.
If you insist you are sustaining Lagos then Yoruba are also sustaining Onitsha, Awka, PH, Enugu and etc massively

You are still BEGGING..

We dont want a COUNTRY with YOU. You are not reliable partners.

Enjoy ODUDUWA REPUBLIC alone and let BIAFRA be.

Simple.

That's what you will still hear very soon... Because as things dey go for the country... I don't know what tribe can cause the seperation Hausa Or Fulani won cause WAHALA for your TRIBE...

sensationalism at best! Let them go back and contribute to their economy.

We didn't force them to come to Lagos, they came because Lagos created the right environment for business which their states failed to do.

franchasofficia:
Reason they need to produce President for at least 16 years to be fair and just

Come carry am make we dey look na.

Well u don't really know the igbos . Most igbos prefer to travel far than to stay close by. Cos that is going far away from ur comfort zone. But still u don't know that there are lots of silent billionaires doing their business in anambra. U don't know that there are people that travel to anambra every week from Lagos to buy goods. I know a lot of people that travel to anambra from lots of African countries monthly to buys goods that they sale in those countries.

Just note this; THIS WORLD IS A BOOK, THOSE WHO DO NOT TRAVEL REQD ONLY A PAGE .

Shey Mode ban ẹ?

Length and breadth (summary) of 5 pages. Drop jams bro, no whine Lagos (we don't like that). Actually I think it's your style, it's not flexible. Your style is wack for the year 2026.
Take some lessons from VDM (that's a youth with a working vision).
And make sure your next release is not in that funny Igbo dialect.

SHIVA001:
True talk we should accomodate each other, igbos don’t really like theirselves in their homelands main reason why Dey move to other part of the country or world for trading. Na fear of being killed at home when u are already excelling. Use to make them come to Lagos.
When u don’t even like yourselves u want other trybe to like and accept you…hmm okay ooo
Na why dem kpai fish magnate for anambra that year. Man wey dey excel for him business.
.

Go to Onitsha, Aba, Nnewi, Enugu etc and see that Igbos are more in their homes than outside into trade and commerce, don't say what you don't know when you lack the capacity to venture outside your locality and be opening your mouth talking about people better than you.

edgecution:
You mean as per donations? Is it not where most of the Igbos made wealth? He talks like they brought the riches from SE.

Many Rich Igbos in Lagos made their money in SE or abroad.

lawani:
Cities like Abidjan in this same west Africa is better developed than Lagos by infrastructure but it was not like that during the days of the western region. Nowhere in west Africa was as developed as Ibadan or Lagos back then.

Therefore if no Nigeria do you think Lagos population would have been lower or the infrastructure worse? Presently Abidjan is a more expensive city to live in than Lagos.

The selling point of Lagos is the high population and some status it gained like being the unicorn capital of Africa and etc. It was also ranked highest at a point for tech innovation or so. How did Nigeria achieve all that for Lagos? Nigeria or not the population would have been there. The population is in New York

Abidjan is not more developed than Lagos o. Maybe they have constant electricity, yea… But aside from light, nothing else..

Lol.. Igbos always claim to have developed other places.. I wonder why they dont develop their own places.

EponObi:
What an ignorant thing to say. Like say dem dash money to the Lagos economy.

They should thank Lagos for giving them an enabling environment for their businesses to thrive.

Yen yen have yen a lot to Lagos economy, but dem no fit give their own economy? Na this kind of mentality dey breed that "na we build Lagos". Why dem no give a lot to Zamfara or even Chad Republic? Niger Republic dey there, why dem no give a lot to their economy? Your own region dey there, why you no give a lot to your economy?

Instead of thanking the Lagos state government both past and present for giving them financial hope and a place to make a livng, na Tinubu dem go dey hate up and down.

And how much una dey contribute to Lagos self wey una no dey allow person see road? All of una combined no contribute to Lagos reach Alhaji Dangote and we don't hear Kano people or Northerners say nonsense like this.

Obi wey una dey promote as the best thing after slice bread governed Anambra for eight years, but today na Lagos him dey live. Him abandon Anambra. His businesses are in Lagos. If Lagos is a hotbed of insurgency or the hosts are hostile to una or Lagos state government is not business friendly, shey him go consider Lagos?

When a kid talk you must know, see how paralyzed the daily commercial activities in Lagos become when majority of the Igbo leave on Christmas holiday, you think it's by dangote abi? Smes contribute more to development than whatever nonsense you're yabing if you don't know. Again PO isn't living in Lagos, he lives in Onitsha stop displaying your ignorance in public.
