Then why are your lawmakers not pushing for an independent Odua nation? we keep hearing about how great Yorubas are with limitless potentials blah blah blah, yet you idiots are the biggest proponents of One Nigeria, Tinubu will rather die than have the idea of an Odua nation proposed to him, as long as he keep feeding off the largesse of Lagos and his Northern benefactors at the expense of his people, then he's all fine and dandy. Conduct a poll now on how many Yorubas really want out of Nigeria to attain their utopian dream of an all progressive Yoruba nation, and you will be SHOCKED at the nonchalance and results from your people... who is fooling who here?

Of course, u guys were first exposed to these things, but other Nigerians have matched up with you guys in these things.

100 years ago, Hausa fulanis were the most educated and well travelled Nigerians. Today is that still the case?

Who are the other Nigerians apart from Igbos? None.

100 years ago was just 1920. How many Hausa Fulanis were doctors, lawyers, engineers, architects, journalist etc?

SW had large population of educated folks as at then. If you are talking about the Ajami script era, do remember Yoruba was written in Ajami scripts as far back as in the 17th century in Oyo empire.

SW travelled more than any group in 1920. Fact

If you think SW are relenting on getting education, you are totally wrong.

Bringing in the civil service here is rubbish. Is Lagos a civil service driven state?

If you are talking of industries in Lagos, can you really beat your chest and say that the Industry sector in Lagos has a higher worth and contributes more to the citizens of Lagos than the SME industry?

It counts because it accounts for substantial amount of people and it is what makes the state function effectively. The fact that you rubbish it speaks well of how other states neglect this vital part of governance.


Who dominates in the service sector of Lagos state? Let us defer the talk on industry.

A Catholic mission school, Bishop Nwedo Memorial Boys’ High School, in Umuahia, Abia State has expelled over 20 students for practicing homosexuality.

The school management dismissed these students on the day that there were to commence their first term examination. Affected students were in junior as well as senior secondary school levels.

According to a local source, the school authorities organised a prayer session following reported cases of homosexual practices in the school.

During the prayer session, the school managers urged students who had indulged in homosexual acts to confess or they would suffer terrible calamities. Some students came forward and disclosed that they had indulged in homosexual acts with junior or senior school students.

Subsequently, the school authorities expelled these students without allowing them to take the first term examination.

A parent expressed shock and disappointment at the harsh punishment meted out to these students by Bishop Nwedo Memorial Boys’ High School.

According to this parent, the dismissal of the students has traumatized them, and has disrupted their academic program.

The decision to punish students for homosexuality does not align with the position of Pope Francis who has noted that homosexual tendencies “are not a sin“.

Students who confessed to homosexuality expected love and proper guidance from the school authorities, not expulsion.

A school that has honesty as its motto should not treat students who expressed honesty this way. In fact mission schools are expected to act with compassion not cruelty towards those who confess to have behaved in a particular way whether sinful or not.

He appealed to the principal of the school, Rev Fr Benjamin Onyemachi to review this decision, recall the students and allow them to continue their education at the school.

Despite the law which criminalises gay relationships in Nigeria, Google Trends for 2019 points to the fact that there may be a growing community of same sex groups in the country.

The bill, which was signed into law by former President Goodluck Jonathan in 2014, bans same sex marriages, amorous relationships, and membership of gay rights groups. It stipulates a punishment of 14-years jail term for lesbians, gays, bisexuals and transgender (LGBT+).

But, according to statistics provided by Google Trends for 2019, South-East states rank high among the states searching for gay pornography in Nigeria and is closely followed by South-South states.

Imo tops the list closely followed by Enugu, Anambra, Abia and Delta states.

The Federal Capital Territory, Abuja comes in at number eight while Lagos places ninth on the list.

According to the data, March 10-16 of 2019 accounts for the lowest search period for gay porn while December 22-28 accounts for the highest search.

The top 10 states searching for gay porn in Nigeria according to web searches are:

Imo
Enugu
Anambra
Abia
Delta
Edo

Abuja
Lagos

So, u think few small farms of Corn or Cucumber in the SW can meet up to the demand of over 50 million people living in the region?

Go to any food market in Lagos and see the trailers that bring these things here and verify the amount of products they bring.

So only elites eat Salad in Nigeria? Middle-class people don't eat Salad?

Oga 80% of the food in Yoruba land comes from the North & Middlebelt.

Southerners eat mostly starchy foods that are sourced from two major sources; namely from Cassava and Yam. Cassava only constitutes more than 60% of our source of carbohydrate. Cassava product majorly consumed include Garri, Fufu, Lafu etc while Yam product includes Pounded and Alubo.

More than 60% of cassava is produced in the southwest while the Yoruba produce at least 30% of Nigeria yam in States like Oyo, Ogun, Kwara, Ondo, Ekiti and Kogi.

The major agricultural produces that comes from the core north are beans, spices, watermelon and best why the middle belt provide majorly Yam.

Finally, an independent Yoruba land will be self-sufficient in food production and become a net food exporter.

There is a strong belief on the sabotage of Eastern ports in favour of Lagos ports. I really can't say who is to blame for it. And I don't wish to tow this line of argument.


Of course, Kano has a high population, nobody is arguing that. What we are asking of is the quality of human beings living there.
Why should u compare a people who are predominantly illiterates to those who are predominantly literates?

what do you mean by the quality of human beings there? have you been to Kano? my guy pls travel and get your facts right. You call a city with an International airport predominantly full of illiterates? this is what you get when nairaland is your main source of information

and as for the strong belief that eastern ports are not favoured like lagos ports, its all lies and propaganda. The Lagos ports are what it is because of the geography as a true Natural harbour which favours bigger ships than other ports in Nigeria and secondly the fact that Lagos have better basic amenities than other cities in Nigeria which foreigners will prefer. You guys would have cried more if states like ogun and ondo had got their acts together before now as they possess even better geography for deep sea ports for more bigger ships to berth there. No be our fault say God bless us.

Abi na. Even Yam in largely grown all over Yorubaland even though the middlebelt is still the largest producer but yam planting is not new to us, hell, Amala, a staple food in much part of Yorubaland is made from Yam so, if we weren't planting Yam centuries earlier, how were we able to make amala In fact they would be the ones without market for their products when we start producing for ourselves.

You Southerners have become heavily urban over the years. How many Southerners will be willing to go back to crude farming right now? Unless it is mechanized farming.
And unless you Yorubas get your own country, I don't see anyone in Yorubaland investing in Mechanized agriculture when the North is still there.

See bros, unless your future Oodua country's govt is desperately interested in investing in Agriculture against all odds, otherwise it will be futile.

On the contrary, a number of youths in the SW are now into farming, even youth from influential families eg son of immediate past health Minister, prof Isaac Adewole, he was kidnapped on his farm that time, and others like that. And yes, for our future country, agriculture will play a pivotal role in a mechanized scale(only in a useless country like Nigeria will they b screaming of diversification through agriculture while agriculture is still largely peasantry.). With the advent of agricultural tech companies like farm crowd, it has even made agriculture more interesting. Oyo state is one of the largest producers of cat fish in Nigeria, ditto for poultry and piggery. So we will just be fine.

Grayoso:


Dont mind the the obdurate chap who only wants to create hollow arguments, incapable of standing up to critical scrutiny, because he simply wants to avoid giving the Yorubas credit where due.

He tries to nullify my submission with tangled and contorted logic that even further proves my point.
We are talking of better business models replacing what was in place and he asks:
"Can Asians match English middle-class in London?"
when this is irrelevant to the central argument which is that even Asians, the erstwhile traditional kings of the corner shop, now prefer to shop in Tesco Express and Sainbury local shops rather than patronise the Asian grocers.

Same would apply to Lagos. If Igbos relinquish the spare part ghettos of Ladipo et al, it wont be long before the vacuum created leads a Lebanese, Yoruba, South African or Indian business to set up the equivalent of Eurocarparts or gsfcarparts which are chains selling aftermarket and OEM ( original equipment manufacturer)parts for mainly German and swedish cars.

Simply take your car chassis number there and the part is available in minutes over the counter or you can even check stock before showing up to pick up. It is the future and will replace, standardize and regulate the garbage Igbos call 'spare part business'. I have a 2016 VW Touareg jeep and would not buy parts in Nigeria because I can use my chassis number to find the part I need in the UK and order it to my UK shippers address who would then send it to Nigeria for me to collect in Ikeja. That way I can never buy the wrong part as anything I purchase is chassis-matched.

https://www.eurocarparts.com/
https://www.gsfcarparts.com/

Even Igbos, middleclass or whatever, will patronise the spare parts model I cite above in preference to buying with their kinsman, because it is much better and more efficient, if someone can actually deliver such a model.

What Igbos dont realise is that only bigger and better organised businesses stand to replace the messy and archaic models they pride so much like how modern houses are the only options to replace the eyesore of the past.

From what I write, what would I need Igbos for? And if a vacuum is suddenly created in any sector by Igbos leaving are there not many Yorubas , even more knowledgeable than myself, who will step in to bridge the gap and ensure the absence of Igbos has no long term deleterious effect?

I never argued with you that better business models will not replace that of the Igbos.

My point is that, If Igbos are leaving, not just their businesses will leave, but their large numbers are leaving also. And we all know that a large consumption population would leaving too and not just a large consumption population of any kind, but a quality one (based on African standards) cos we can all attest to the higher standard of life of Igbos (based on African standards).

My question for you is that, do you think a Lagos of 5 million middle-class citizens would ever attract the same foreign investment as a Lagos of 10 million middle-class citizens?

Pls answer without bias.

The Agriculture of the 21st century will be defined by how well it can be commercialized and mechanized. Through, landmass, and cheaper labour will play a role but such a role will be hugely limited.

For example, Thailand is the largest exporter of processed Cassava product, earning more than $4billion dollars from the export of this product despite having a much smaller cultivated land compared to Nigeria. What they have been able to do is mechanized it and operate the farm as a business.

Today, Majority of the largest integrated farms are in Yoruba land. The capital is in the west, the biggest market is in the west and manpower is also in the west. It is just a matter of time before the west become an industry leader in Agro-based business in Africa( we already a leader in Nigeria)

Bro you don't know what you are saying. Just stick to the info about Nigeria tribes which is your specialty and leave this kind of discussion for superior minds.

SMEs don't have a larger share in Lagos taxes/revenue. That is a blatant lie.

Below is how Lagos get her revenue:
PAYE (45%):
Pay As You Earn (PAYE) is a form of personal income tax that refers to tax deducted directly from the wages and salaries of employees operating in the formal sector.

Other Taxes (19.27%):
These include various taxe such as levies on market traders, land registration and other landrelated fees, as well as development levies on individuals, pool betting/lottery/gaming fees and stamp duties on individuals.

Direct Assessment (2.39%):
Direct assessment relates to those taxes imposed on businesses, especially (informal) by the State authorities, based on the size of their activities.

Road Tax (2.48%):
Road taxes are daily levies paid by commercial transporters operating within Lagos.

Based on the above:
You should apologize ASAP for giving ridiculous statistics about the SME generating that ridiculous amount of revenue for Lag which you opined up here. Stop meddling into things you don't understand. The Igbo 2by 2 shops are not what is generating tax for the Lagos government. What the Banks, Insurance, Mega-corporations, Dangote, and etc. generates alone for Lagos is more than what those 2by2 shops will generate for 500 years!
