Girl, first of all you don't have to lie about your tribe. Everyone that follows you on this forum knows you are igbo from the SS. Paye taxes contribute the most to Lagos IGR (of which Yoruba people and multinationals contribute the bulk), and we all know your people in Lagos are mostly engaged in the informal sector of the Lagos economy where tax evasion is the order of the day, and engage in petty trading, gala hawking, and criminal activities. This subject has been trashed on here severally. You people are just empty chestbeaters.

Don't be ignorant.
The SS is very distinct from igbo.

I'm Ijaw!
Whether u agree or not. The fact remain that the igbos have contributed greatly to the development of Lagos and the multinational companies are almost all oil sector driven.

That oil comes from my backyard...

Its has already been established as a no mans land, that is why there are Igbo & urhobos in the state house of assembly
so JUST because you have igbos and others in assembly,it is a no mans land? Are the kings of all the towns and communities in lagos called EZE??so if a yoruba becomes an assemblyman in anambra(which highly impossible) ,then anambra is a no mans land?Some comments made by some myopic land grabbers will one day re-enact the Rwanda ethnic cleansing . Keep disrespecting your host!

Every other tribe can see how stupid some of these Igbos are. Always Chest beating, boasting what they are not.
You don't have to be insulting... u are Yoruba anyway so I guess that's a norm for u guys.

It seems u didn't even understand my question.
I asked what industry are majority these multinational companies in??
I didn't ask what tribe they are from
Re: Governor Obiano: "Anambra Made Lagos What It Is" by Gazzy88(m): 3:20pm On Nov 20, 2017
All the borders linking Lagos as a state is within Ogun state,a core Yoruba entity so why all these hullabaloo about one funny tribe claiming what's not theirs. Even the blind know Lagos is Yoruba Land. When we were telling them to go and develop Onitsha into a mega city,they were shouting marginalization everywhere. Water don pass garri now,they are trying to claim another man's land. You know how many miles you travel before you reach Lagos mind you we have cities like PH, Benin,Warri,Asaba,etc on the way to Lagos but these mumu dodge them in lieu of Lagos. Once this country break up,I'm sure you build a very long bridge to connect SE to Lagos in order to claim it. Awon didiri people...shameless lots

You can be another confused SS igbo for all I care. Just because you people down in Rivers are subservient to Anambra people don't mean we Yorubas are mumu like you lots. Ogun alone already has a higher IGR than the entire SE combined. If these people are so special, why isn't it reflecting in their state economy, development, and IGR? The recent elections demonstarted the extent of the poverty in that state, so much so that even the ruling party had to resort to vote-buying. You better receive sense.

See Governor wey people elect saying rubbish, if he had made a statement like Anambrans contribute hugely in Lagos that still make a bit sense to say "Anambrans made Lagos", a place that has existed and developed with the first cable telephone network before the existence of Nigeria itself, a place the British used as their seat of administration before any black man knew what was called Mirror. A place developed before any Igbo even knew such a place existed.

See mumu talk that is coming out from a governor?

Others don't pay tax Abi? Or are you telling us that it's all those 2x2 shop taxes is what lagos is using to sustain and maintain the state?


Do you know the number of multinational companies in Lagos? Do you know the millions they pay as tax? The amount 1 of those companies pay as tax will dwarf what all Igbos not just Anambrarians are paying as tax.

And thoz multinational companies;non of em are owned or run by igbos?

Oga o! The way these guys chest beat eh beats my imagination

Re: Governor Obiano: "Anambra Made Lagos What It Is" by yinkeys(m): 3:26pm On Nov 20, 2017
There are Lebanese & other nationalities that started business in Lagos before expanding, and other companies. I can mention countless.
Mikano, big treat, viju milk etc.
Fine Ibos like to do business as compared to other tribes in Nigeria,but this isnt tangible to say they built Lagos or Kano.
People just be spewing rubbish
Soon they'd say other countries developed the English premier league.

For those attacking Obiano, he made the comment on the sideline of the interview he granted. It does not mean that Anambra solely controls the economy of Lagos or they pay the most tax. His comment is more or less a political point of view. That does not diminish the fact Anambra people are force to reckon with in the economy of Lagos.
true.

It's with open mind that US admitted so many different nationals into their country and today, the country is thriving, recording successes upon success. Today, the country is great and doing very well simply because of this decision. However those nationals has and should never lay claim to these great achievement US has today. It's simply unwise. If the Japanese or the Latinos are so wise and smart as they claim, why can't they just simply develop their country instead of developing other people's own?
Don't lay claim to another man's success even if you're part of his success story, it's pointless.

Today, Ibo made Lagos, tomorrow, bini owns Lagos, now, Anambra (of all states) made Lagos.

No doubt we all know Igbos are contributing greatly to the revenue base(not development) of the state. It is normal wherever you are making your money from you have to pay tax, in the real sense "Lagos made Anambrans" because if it were the other way round they would have rather preferred to take their businesses to Anambra and pay taxes there for development.

As far as I know all the big Real Estate players in Lagos are Yorubas.The Yoruba controlled State govt are the ones building the infrastructures not Igbos.

That is the kind of statement the Governor should have made not Anambrans made Lagos, before Igbos knew a place like Lagos existed it already had its first cable telephone network in Africa so what the f*uck is this drunkard Governor saying.

Stop being ignorant. Ijaw is very distinct from igbo.

I don't blame you one bit for your utterances coz you are exhibiting symptoms of a conquered soul. Ijaws have no other job/profession besides fishing and have left every other profession to non-ijaws (Yorubas are huge stakeholders in the oil and gas industry in your state and the entire SS), and even go as far as selling your slots to yorubas and ibo people. On that account I can understand your inferiority complex. Yorubas are in firm control of their regional affairs, both politically and economically (we are not as stupid as you people). And this is not just talk, coz it's fact-based and has been thrashed extensively on this very forum. Compare and contrast the following threads and perhaps your ignorance would be cured for your own good.
