abduljabbar4:First kano started off as a very big city of Commerce. The first plane landed in kano. But what do we have today, kano has not maintained the position of city of Commerce. A look at the Igr of kano is discouraging at barely N13b per annum which is below the expected threshold. Kano doesn't measure of in the academic world too as kano ranks very low despite its huge population. Kano does not have any industrial hub functioning as the textile industry is gone. Kano populace are not schooled in the business of entrepreneurship. Now for kano to generate enough revenue to fund its recurrent expenditure which is more than N6b it would go for broke. Kano budgeted N219b with recurrent of N70b and capital N148, meanwhile the igr of kano was just N13b for 2014 Which can not even fund the recurrent for 2 months 18 Likes 2 Shares |

abduljabbar4: Slavery was officially declared illegal in Islamic northern Nigeria as late as 1933. This is despite the fact that the British Crown had abolished slavery over 150 yrs prior. The British met a well entrenched slave based economy in the north and seemed hapless to stop constant slave raids by the Hausa Fulani in and around the middle belt. Towns like Suleja where setup as slave raiding centers by the Muslim north in conjunction with Arab slavers. The twin towns Abuja and Suleja where named after two Arab slave raiders , Abu and Suleiman. In that same Suleja, the hills and their natural caves served as refuge by the indegonoius Gwari people who fled to them to avoid capture. The slaves where transported to Kano and other slave markets in the Moslem north where a vast majority where sold in the trans Saharan slave trade while some ended up as domestic servants, field hands or sex concubines. The groundnut pyramids you used to hear of where based on slave labour. The British tolerated it because the Northern Muslim oligarchs where making them rich. The House of Dantata are prime example of this dark past of slavery in the north. They traded slave labored produce to the British and distributed finished goods in return. This is why you will never see or hear of groundnut pyramids ever again. This also applies to the much touted cocoa glory days in the SW. The Agbekoya Parapo uprising ended an exploitative plantation model. This is why Tajus are not farming cocoa anymore. Till this day a form of indentured slavery still exists in the north. Widespread ignorance and lack of basic education has made the majority of northerners unemployable unless has field hands. This is the reason the northern elite will never truly invest in education in the north. A vast majority of the northern illiterate population are actually descendants of slaves. This is why a hereditary and class rotational monarchy still exist in the Islamic north even though Islam forbids it. This is why the Maitassine class revolution was viciously put down and similarly why the Shiites have been widely condemned by the Emirates. El Zackzacky was always preaching against this class divide and had several runnings with the Emir of Zazau. Ironically, the same descendants of slaves living in bondage to the descendants of their ancestors' slave masters are now fighting in the NE to bring about this class society based on an inhumane doctrine of subservience and submission in the guise of religion of peace. God dey. 47 Likes 10 Shares |

MrAnalyst: Every other state that solely depends on oil receipt is no different from Osun. Every state will have a big slice of their allocations cut but that will not make them in anyway better than the ND. If Bayelsa with a population of 800,000 earned at one time 6 bn monthly and osun with a population of 4million earned 2bn which is richer? Now make a 50% cut in both their allocation ... Does that make Bayelsa poorer than Osun? 7 Likes 1 Share |

I DONT CARE WHAT YOU THINK ABOUT ME and i wont start proving my origin to you,it only depicts inferiority and your thoughts about my origin doesnt count because your are INCONSEQUENTIAL. And your rants cant stop ndokis and others from being igbo. Do you know what "OBIGBO" means in english? THE HEART OF IGBO LAND/PEOPLE. Bro, we are proud and not ashamed of our heritage. The people with the brightest IQ in the continent. AS I HAVE ALWAYS TOLD YOU(OBIGBO)NDOKIS ARE NOT IJAWS. We are not ijaws we are igbo and are proud of it, carry your expantionist agenda to IBENO.

Ugomba: And what foolishness made the APC controlled SW to borrow recklessly based on this benchmark? You assume only ND collected allocation from this wealth source. A state like Osun that for three years straight operated a 500% deficit budget nko? The ND may have squandered theirs but some parasitic entities indebted themselves over it. 8 Likes |

Bryan37: I must confess, the north really dealt us a serious blow in the Nigerdelta. Imagine the way they sustained the divide-and rule game in the east and demonizing the SE Ibos in the eyes of their cousins as they the SE Ibo toiled hard to regain all they lost in the war. At the same time promoting 'one north'. I pity any of us in the Nigerdelta still shouting 'our oyel'. Who will clean up our region now? Biafra? 19 Likes |

explorer250: Ignore the fool. Since 1999 an Igbiod tribe (Ikweres) have been ruling Rivers. Sometimes my Ijaw brothers reason with their anus. How can the Ikwere who speak an Igbo dialect bear Igbo names and share a lot of similarities in culture be classified as non Igbo ? This is like saying the Aworis or Ilajes are not Yoruba because they have a different dialect? If the Yorubas insist that Asaba people and Ikweres are not Ibos then also the Itsekiris in Warri can never be linked to the Yoruba. 23 Likes 2 Shares |

point of correction. We are not lazy. You say the ND is underdeveloped but is still 20 years ahead of the SE. And in The SW, only Lagos can compete with PH, Delta, or Akwa ibom. you should worry about your region first. Niger Delta will always prevail. 7 Likes |

MrAnalyst: The man is slow. He is yet to wake up. It is people like him that betray the Niger Delta without knowing it. The man was as at early as January this year a staunch change chanting zombie. He only left after Gbawe exposed his hustle. This is the problem I have with the ND. They never for once think of their future in the long term and are now so used to collecting peanuts. Thank God we still have the likes of Asari and Tompolo who can still be milking the system and fighting for ND rights. Send an Invite to Barcanista from liar Mohamed's office for him to come visit next week Monday and watch him change back to his zombie ways immediately. I wonder how you can tolerate the Yorubas mockery and Hausa Fulani pillaging but hate the igbos who leave and work among us in peace? Niger Delta must not continue believing the Nigeria Army propaganda from the Biafran war. 30 Likes 3 Shares |

asorocker: Why do you think Lekki Free Trade zone is being built or the Lagos State Deep Sea Port #4 or Eko Atlantic or the 600,000 BPD Dangote refinery? Lagos State has vision and foresight with the economy rivaled only with countries. As long as it has a huge population all Lagos has to do is execute on going projects. Same can be said for Kano. The people that will feel the impact are businesses and regions that are solely based on importation of finished goods. With the dollar rationalization and import limits, they will have to look elsewhere. 9 Likes |
