What of SE.
A region devastated by 3years of civil war must deserve 10% of VAT then.
Yet no single senator from the SE has seen this anomaly!All they are interested in is embezzling money to go and build big mansions in their villages and be worshipped as tin gods by their marginalized and impoverished kinsmen.

Your senators what's their plans concerning your kinsmen in Kwara that have be living in bondage under fulani emir
They are busy dancing Owambe in Lagos while other western states are living in penury, instead of guys to focus on the topic you moved your problem to southeast, If Alhaji Ali Modu Sheriff slap Tinubu una go blame Igbo, If Dino insult Tinbu's wife, una go blame Igbo, if Kwankwso give Ambode order not to relocate Mile 12 market una go blame Igbo, if Buhari teach Tinubu Bitter lesson una go blame Igbo, waiting concern Igbos for this topic ??

Are you this daft? AWOLOWO was against one Nigeria, he wanted true regions system and secession clause on the Nigeria constitution before independent but your father AZIKIWE want one Nigeria and form Alliance with the north.

When bill was sponsored to have 1% of national income to develop Lagos, the igbos legislature in the house go against despite the fact that it will also be beneficial to the igbo large community on Lagos.

Nigeria need to be rule base on a strong regional government or each region should go their separate ways

NextGovernor:
When it will favour North you won't know when they debate and pass it to law but when it comes to the South it turns to National debate and won't even pass 1st reading... I am not tribalist but sometime the way this country is run is not fair. It just pain me that the yorubas were deceived and I just hope they learn the 3rd time (after Awolowo and Tinubu ).

NextGovernor:
That was after he failed, deceived and dumped by the North. Just like the way Tinubu is wailing and rebeling against them partially after been used and dumped. Too late

Stealthideals24:
Awon oloriburuku! They want to use Lagos money to rebuild their dammed region, and they gat the mind to shout down our senators requesting for 1%. Na lagoon sure pass.

kernel504:
Is not Lagos wealth, is national wealth. Just like Lagos enjoys resources that belongs to Niger Delta people.

dEastActivist:
What the Lagos government is asking for is irrelevant and nothing to pursue nor right home about.

The NE is suffering from terrorist attack...
If I may ask what is Lagos suffering from?
What kinda greedy sw senators do we even have in our senate.

The other day was special status for Lagos, a bill sponsored by the wife if tinubu, remi tinubu. What kinda fuvk is that?!?!
For this economic recession? Do they think other states are fools or what??

I encourage all the States and regions to be reawakened to avoid a set of scavengers and parasitic entities riding on them. Ignorance is never an excuse. Fight for your rights, your states and your regions.

Is so sad this is the nature of things as some ingrates Are hellbent in ripping us of our collective Commonwealth through the Senate.

Since after the civil war fought in Nigeria, has the government development the southeast? No! yet they are planning on developing the northeast that is still at risk with more attacks due to fuuucked up ideology and fanatical teachings of their youths. Rather Igbos properties were seized in various part of the country and when Igbos struggled to get to were they are now, some disgruntled Nigerians term them that "Igbos too like money", why won't they like money? Is it not money that they will use to develop their areas destroyed after the war? Now monies from Nigeria pocket will be use for development of those areas which is still at war. I have always said it that we southerners have no sense at all. OBJ, GEJ etc were all waste to the southern interest, rather they were forming good guys, good guys my arse! It's a lesson to southerners next time we'll reason with our functional brains. Hate and envy won't take us anywhere. Don't worry in few years time when all those people Buhari has fixed up in various government establishment will raise to the top and colonised the system then we go know wetin done hit us, by then it will be too late. Northerners are futuristic, while we down south just dey see only present situations. Goodmorning southern Nigerians.

TheFreeOne:
Anytime I listened to this issue regarding NE development I just laugh.

These northern elites/politicians will end up embezzling those funds using their cronies to get contracts. Unfortunately those dudes don't want any development aside using their people/almajiris to perpetuate themselves in order to control naija resources.

Why do those who promised support to fund the redevelopment not forthcoming again? They understand the game hence their lukewarm attitude to it.

And isn't 3% over 10yrs crazy? I have said it severally and will say it again southerners are there own worst enemies and will continue to play second fiddle until we all have a serious brain reset and do the right thing.

EternalTruths:
Hold Afonjas responsible.

I hold all well meaning Nigerians and those who shout one Nigeria responsible for the neglect towards the south east.

EternalTruths:
We have survived it

I pity the Afonjas who have enslaved themselves

Imagine the Afonjas paying 3% to fund their masters up North

MXrep:
yorubas should know that it is impossible for them to get what they deserve when the North has an advantage, This is a regime for the North, they destroyed a southern regime because it failed to marginalize igbos for them, now they have an anti igbo regime but they will only manage crumbs, so they should shvt up. Igbos will move en masse to the NE when the money start flowing there, milk the money and repatriate home

Why are the Lagos senators complaining?
When Niger Deltans called for resource control, they branded them as "lazy" greedy people for wanting what is rightfully theirs.
Niger Delta states suffer extreme environmental degradation and abandonment and in the end, 87% of the oil wealth is taken to the capital while they're left with 13%. Now the bloody hypocrites in Lagos are crying because of 3% VAT. Isn't that stupidity?
When it comes to oil, the black monkeys scream "Our Commonwealth". Now we're talking VAT and the numbskulls are crying. Your political agitations are never about justice or fairness but greedy parochial interests.

When Jonathan kicked off the National Conference, Tinubu attacked it (to serve his own selfish political calculations) and his Lagos lackeys followed him. They never envisioned a day like this coming to pass, but it has happened. They threw out the other fair government because they believed having their "brother" as vice president would help them sit at the table with their master. Now, kasala don burst. The Lagos Special Status bill has ended up in the sewage pit where it rightfully belongs, and now even their VAT is going to be spent on abbokis in far away North East.

Hurts, doesn't it?
LMFAO!!!
