What Do People Of The South-south Contribute To The Development Of This Country? by hungrynigerian(op): 11:44am On Apr 24, 2016
in the south-West the Yorubas are know for their intellectual capabilities which makes them out standing in the corporate world, in the south-east the igbos are known for their business and entrepreneurship mind set, northern Nigeria is well known for agriculture, they arguably feed the nation. please what are the people of the south-south known for other than saying "na our oyel" so because one has oil they should just fold their hands and sit down doing nothing but drinking ogogoro all day long.
Re: What Do People Of The South-south Contribute To The Development Of This Country? by Nobody:
OP dis ur title is offensive. Is like saying Qatar, Saudi Arabia, UAE etc dont deserve thier wealth. We have been blessed to have crude oil in our land. And dis crude oil feed the whole nation. Even if we are drinking Ogogoro, we have contributed massively more than 80% of Nigeria economy.

Is like saying King Solomon does not deserve to be king because he inherited it unlike his father David who fought for it.

Even though i agree having oil is not enough reason for us to be lazy and be drinking ogogoro as u put it, but asking what we contribute to Nigeria is an insult. Yes i will prefer we behave like Texas people in the United State and Russians, who despite the massive crude oil in thier state and country respectively, still work hard in Farming, manufacturing, technology,etc.

But coming to Nigeria, we have some great South South sons and dauggters who has created thousand of Job in Nigeria. We have Jim Ivia of zenith bank. We have elumelu of UBA. We have the Ibrus of Ghandian and former oceanic bank now ecobank. We have AIG Imuokhoede of Access Bank.

Even in d North, Most of the agriculture comes from North Central/Middle Belt. Actually as far as i am concern, middle belt is neither north nor south. I consider them Hybrid of both.

Even d laziness you are talking about, i believe is even national rather than south south people in particular. The whole country is lazy because of oil.

Personally I believe the OP is an IPOB tout who created this mischievous, outrageous and Offensive topic to create dissaffection and hate among south South with South west and North. I dont think any sane South Westerner or Northerner share d same position as the OP in my humble opinion.

OP the fact that u created this ur Moniker today further proof you are an IPOB tout. it means you are hiding ur true identity so dat we cant know who you are from ur previous topics and post. What a shameful act!


Note:
I never use d word Igbo in my post to describe the OP. I used IPOB tout. For me, even though IPOB tout are Igbo, not all Igbo are IPOB tout. So i am very conscious of dat truth. I never use d word Igbo.

Ezekwesili, Ngige, Eboyi state PDP Governor David Nweze Umahi are Igbo but they are not an IPOB tout.

IPOB and Igbo race are different.

you just mentioned few names out of millions of people, what is the mind set of the average man in bayelsa? it's na our oyel mind set.

The SS contributes nothing. Nothing at all! That's why only one burst pipeline in Ogulagha almost crippled Nigeria.
In fact Nigerian economy depends on the SW.

Go to US and Europe, it is few people that makes those country great. Many of the people rely on welfare. Generally all over the world, less than 10% of countries population are responsible for the country's greatness.

laziness is not a national problem, don't tell me a Yoruba man with his master's or even doctorate degree is lazy, or an igbo man carrying engine at ladipo market is lazy, or a middle belt/northern farmer tiling the ground under hot sun is lazy. it's a south-south problem!!

of course Ipob are touts. They don't usually make sense whenever they are explaining anything pertaining to Nigeria. Their behavior is so absurd, they are hate filled people. I wonder how all of a sudden, people just start hating his fellow country man for no reason, only because he has been intoxicated with some dumb idiology. That is why the are called touts. no apologies.

I like your classification of ipob as touts but the world still recognise them as a freedom fighting group though they did wrong by calling for the death of others, that apart. So your conclusion is that anybody that hateful is an ipob tout ?
