What's Stopping Yorubas From Developing Other States Like They Developed Lagos? by horsepower101: 12:52pm On Nov 29, 2017
This is a simple question. The argument among Yorubas towards igbos and by extension other southerners on nairaland is that they developed Lagos through their hardwork, intelligence and sophistication. What happened to the remaining five states. Why is their development not anywhere close to Lagos. I need honest explanation for this discrepancy.

I know that Some people will try to discuss this issue while others will come to throw insults at me and post pictures of to distract us from the topic.

This is IBadan. The capital of the old western region.

Na wao! You are asking chicken to pee? Who developed Lagos? Was it the yorubas?

Was Abuja developed by the indigenes or was it developed by the entire country?

Was Lagos not the capital of Nigeria? Now you know why.

Ok you said Lagos is safe for investors. So that means other south west states are unsafe for investors?

Nigeria is 57 years old, how come the rest of the south west states haven't been attracting those same investors into other parts of Yoruba land?

What about the Yoruba masses? Why are they not mordernizing their living conditions like they miraculously did in Lagos?

Why are there so many dilapidated buildings with brown roof in the rest of south west? Especially in state capitals?

So you personal claim is that investors developed Lagos? Not Yoruba people as most claim?

Who are those investors. Don't they come from somewhere? Are they not human beings?

For example how do you explain all the middle class to rich private houses in Lagos. Did those same investors build all those houses too?

Showing me pictures of few estates or neighborhoods where the rich run to doesn't mean the masses live the same way.

Every city in Nigeria has rich neighborhood where the rich run to. But my main concern in this question is about the masses. The average and regular people

Like I said, the pictures you posted are zoomed in on specific areas.

I have never seen a city wide pictures with city skyline posted by a Yoruba person. All I keep seeing is zooming into specific neighborhoods and saying it represents the whole city.

The only city you South westerners actually post the skyline is Lagos.

grin although i know ur mission i go still talk my mind. Lagos before oil was the commercial centre of lag, investors and pple developed it( regardless of tribe) , pple moved to lagos en masse from east and west. after oil too d development accelerated. no tribe can be said to develop lagos, even the oil self na whites,yoruba(adenuga abiola), igbo( u sabi dem) and northerners invest in d sector till dem find oil. while SS pple dey fuk wink

You are still posting same neighborhoods from different angles. This was never about competition or trolling as you put it. This was about understanding the massive developmental disparity between Lagos and the rest of the south west.
