Stop saying what you don't know, I have been to about 85% of LGs in the north west, did you know that the cheapest thing in this place is FOOD?, farm fresh food oh.
Don't be deceived, you need to go to these places to understand what I'm talking about.
These people have also mastered this thing called irrigation, their farmland are nor really rain dependent, which means there is nothing like dry season, my concern is that the farmlands are being over exploited which may have adverse effect on their production in the future.

BMedia:
While I agree with your second point that igbos marginalized themselves as a result of their greed and lack of political strategy, I strongly disagree with your first point that northerners contribute the least, especially as it was not backed by facts and figures and stinks of bigotry.

Kaduna has one of the most robust economies in Nigeria for your info and I can back that up with facts and figures.

Shut the hell up there! I'm a Yoruba guy and I have very little reservations about Ezeife.
Tackle the message and don't drag Yoruba into this.

Dollyak:
Can you provide a more credible source so this can hit the front page? Biafran source are full of propaganda

fulanmafia:
Baseless pile of *** from a greying iPod.

The fact remains that the SE played itself into political irrelevance with its politics of hatred and bigotry. Instead of making efforts to build bridges with other regions to strike political alliances, and make amends with other Nigerians that they insulted and derided during the last elections because of the IB, they are waiting cap in hand for appointments they said they never needed from the Amala/Tuwo party. Dem go wait tire.

The other fact remains that the North IS the political backbone of Buhari's administration. As for the economic backbone that Ezeife mentioned, that title currently belongs SOLELY to the South South. Ezeife should know everyone is aware that the SE also takes more from Nigeria than it contributes, like the rest of the regions.

As for NK, he should face his trial for treason and if he's innocent, he can crip walk back to Nnewi.

Unfortunately for you, I haven't been on a fuel queue for years.

[s]He said YORUBAS FROM THE ZOMBIE ESTABLISHMENT. That wasn't a generalization. What is too difficult in reading and comprehending?[/s]

Nalikedis:
...Seriously, Nigeria needed to be bundled into 6 countries once and for all, but nit at IPOB call. The Biafra people always call for war anytime they felt they are loosing out in the event of things but the moment they are close to power that be they always strenghten the union more. If they are bundled with rhe SS in a new country, everytime the Ijaws outwit them will still lead to call for civil war. Neither Nigeria or any union at that can ever progress with this kind of two groups, they are only interested in personal gain than in overall progress of the union. They both specialize in rousing religious sentiment, one christian rhe other islamic. The few other groups that have a little bit if nationalistic mind arw the ones bearing the brunts. Abeg... This thing wont stop even if Nigeria exist fir 1 million years

Dollyak:
I know the argument comes down to Agriculture majority of which are produced in Plateau, Kogi and benue state. Please stop claiming this people as core Northerners. It is often said that a middlebelts can never rule Nigeria because they are neither accepted in the North except for stratetigic reasons.
Once Middlebelters allign with the South you lots will calm down.

PreyingMantis:
Don't tell me you're one of the infamous zombies everyone talks about. You were making some sense initially before the tribal adrenaline took control. Chai!

I hope you're aware that for the first time, oil revenue is only contributing N820 billion (less than 20%) to our 6 trillion Naira budget and the rest is from non oil sources.

PreyingMantis:
Don't mind those uneducated clowns... They think everybody is as daft as they are. In case they have forgotten, I'll give them a little reminder.

The first pronouncement by Gideon Gwakar Orkar(a middle-beltern)during his unsuccessful coup attempt was the immediate expulsion of the Core North from Nigeria. I wonder why that coup didn't succeed. Nigeria would've been permanently restructured for the better and we would have had peace.

These online imbeci1es come here all the time to give the deceitful impression that they have anything in common with the Middle-Belt. We all know the truth. Right now the Fulani immigrants from Futa Jallon are doing everything humanly possible to conquer and subjugate the hapless Middle-Belt. I pray another Gideon Orkar arises from their midst someday.

Now, see this:

This statement was made by Jonathan in september 2014.

Now, did I hear someone ask where this man was when the statement was made??

Did I just hear someone call him a hypocritical old fool??

jamesibor:
Yea, like this one...

TruthisGOD:
That is a complete hogwash. You people should try do your calculations and don't swallow everything media tells u. Do a little maths for Petes sake! At budget benchmark of 38 or even 28 dollar per barrel oil still contributes far more than 820 billon to the budget revenue, even up 60% of our revenue. Now that oil price is hovering between 43 to 46 dollar per, it accounts to more than 60% of the budget revenue . The speculation that oil contributes 820 billion is pure fallacy to make it look like the least contributor in the budget revenue.

Caseless:
Trashy trash!

loopman:
The core north and the SE will always put Nigeria on the precipice. I think it's time we dissolve this country or make another arrangement on how we want to live together as Nigerians. The present arrangement comes with too much mutual suspicion that is unhealthy for nation building.

BMedia:
All of these miracle centre products never fail to amaze.

The statement was that oil revenue due to its fast declining value is billed to contribute just 820b Naira to the 2016 budget which hasn't yet been passed, not that oil has been accounting for just that figure all these years.

Ensure you comprehend my posts before mentioning me further or you will be ignored.
