Ibadan, Abeokuta and Ado Ekiti,.....world class cities

ThatFairGuy1:
When those houses were built

IspitonCowards:
We are not in the 19th century, this 2020, Modernity is still very far from a lot of SW states....if you are honest with yourself you will agree

So all Southwestern houses are like that to you?

IspitonCowards:
Ibadan, Abeokuta and Ado Ekiti,.....world class cities

hajimosho:
Numerous links abound nairaland of erosion gully settlements, and uninhabitable & unhygienic shanties in the east. I won't reshare that.

While urban renewal is necessary, the pictures you labelled yourself and shared are a perfect example of a city which has experience civilization over 200 years ago with its building still surviving due to the use of original materials and free of war torn adversities.

Had it been your brothers had there way, they would have flooded there with substandard materials as they do in Lagos now.

Check the cries of your people, it will take eternity to repair the damage in South east. That's the reason the Nigeria government looks away anytime issues from there is brought up.

Because all developments will be later washed away sooner or later

Bros do you want us to go back to 200yrs ago?, The SW by 2020 standards is an eyesore and you know it, About gully erosions they abound all over the southern part of Nigeria

hajimosho:
What we are telling you is that south east has no standard at all. Nothing worth of being compared against the west.

According to the article written by Boniface CE Egboka1, Akudo Ernest Orji2 and Hycienth O Nwankwoala3

"In southeastern Nigeria, soil and gully erosion and landslides are responsible for the widespread destructions of human, animal and plant lives, domestic, industrial and commercial property, transportation and communication systems, degradation of arable lands, contamination of surface and groundwater supplies, isolation of settlements and migration of communities."

Don't cry on this thread and don't lump us together with south-east.

Your region is not viable for investment, habitation of man, plant and animals, the most prone to migration due to natural factors and others.

Cry alone

You dey talk long talk shaa.....Stop consoling yourself and shifting goal post, Ibadan, Akura, Abeokuta, osogbo, Ado ekiti is an ocean of dilapidated buildings with rusted down roofs begging to be nuked

Easterners are still migrating there in droves ,they are Welcome as long as they behave.

Kriss216:
Aside Lagos, mention any SW state better than Ebonyi(the youngest) in infrastructures?

mrvitalis:
Typical Nigeria ..u look at results of a process u don't look at the root causes of process

The north with the help of their controller INEC and police and army help put people in positions in southern Nigeria , ....most times they put idiots who would be loyal to them and not the people

What u see in the East is just a reflection of this process ....north made orji kalu governor ...the rest in abia is history ....simple

If igbos are completely independent there is no way most of our leaders would win local government election even ...ikpeazu without backing can't even win his ward

Without north would hope be governor of imo state ?

Sea enugu and anambra ( thanks to nigige ) that broke out of the chain ...the difference is clear

Ebonyi also is independent and has been developing silently since

Hope would appoint the next ohaneze president and u expect such a president to have Igbo interest at heart ?

We need to break away as igbos to grow ...that's why we want our own country

IspitonCowards:
Migrating to where? Osogbo or Ado ekiti?, Wake up from your dream, our only business is with lagos .....The Other places are Big mess ups

Christistruth00:
You obviously have never left the SE there must be more Igbos in Ibadan than in all of Umuahia and Aha combined together and they speak their Yoruba with a strong Ibadan dialect too.

IspitonCowards:
From Ogbomosho bureau of Statistics, There's must be more Igbos in Ibadan than igboland itself nah, Lagos has the major concentration of igbos, other SW states can be compared with the number of SWesterners in the east

Christistruth00:
Stop deceiving yourself, the Ibadan Igbos even love the city very well for its peacefulness some of them can hardly be distinguished from Yoruba some of them their families have been in Ibadan for more than 50 years. Not to talk of the new arrivals who are still coming.

IspitonCowards:
lol, Whatever makes you sleep better.....Shaa I spotted your brothers in Onitsha sometime ago

Christistruth00:
And the Ibadan Igbos love their Amala and Ewedu soup too.

IspitonCowards:
lol , Tell me more

ThatFairGuy1:
When those houses were built(form of civilization), your people are still living in the hut.
Besides, we keep telling you that those buildings were deliberately leave(sanctified). There are new sites that are being develope in every Yoruba town.
Or is it your believe that all the houses in those towns are like that

Most Igbos blame the North and Abuja for the poor infrastructure in the region but I hold a different opinion because of the following reasons.

1. LGA CHAIRMEN: Let me start from my LGA, Ikeduru LGA receives 85 million Naira monthly allocation from Abuja yet they can't construct just one internal road since the last 10 years. The LGA chairman pockets the whole money with the governors. Yet we blame Abuja?

2. FEDERAL HOUSE OF ASSEMBLY MEMBERS: I didn't know they recieve so much money from Abuja. From my findings MBAIKE FEDERAL CONSTITUENCY receives 100 Million Naira monthly and 450 million Naira every quarter from Abuja for Constituency Projects but I am yet to see what they are doing with such outrageous amount of money. This is more than enough to upgrade and modernize our schools and even build standard hospital in the LGA's but these guys will loot everything and blame Abuja. Their highest and biggest empowerment is few keke tricycles, motorbikes, wheelbarrow and shovels for their lapdogs and online warriors. That is why when you criticize them these urchins will attack you from all angles. GUYS, WHO IS REPRESENTING YOU IN ABUJA? PLS SHARE HIS PROJECTS LETS SEE.

3. SENATORS: I have toured round but I cannot find their projects anywhere yet they recieve massive allocations running into Billions. How do these people even sleep at night?

4. HOUSE OF ASSEMBLY MEMBERS: I used to think that they are all the same till uche Ogbuagu emerged. Presently he is one of the shining lights in Ikeduru. Just under one year he managed to construct 4 internal roads in his constituency, 4 modern markets,.mmiri onoma bridge is under construction. From my findings house members in Imo state receive 3 million Naira monthly salary, they have not been given any allocations for Constituency projects just yet. Which means he did all these with his pocket money? I hope he doesnt change like the others. We are watching him closely. I'm not saying he is perfect, I've just listed some of his achievements bc no other house of assembly member in the constituency has done any of these. Someone should prove me wrong with FACTS.

In my own humble opinion, Governors, senators, local government chairmen and federal house of representatives have the potential to turn our region into a mini Dubai but no, they will steal all the money and blame Abuja.
For me our problem is not Abuja, our problem is the crooks and IDIOTS that are representing us.

And please we need to stop disturbing God because God cannot built our roads or change our government. The power is in our hands to remove these greedy bastards through elections or peaceful protests cum demonstrations.

You cannot find any road Rochas constructed in Imo State that lasted up to 3 years. If in doubt show me just one example.

Abia state is even the worst, they have never been lucky with good leadership. With all the huge allocations from Abuja plus all the big industries and factories in Aba yet the useless governors cannot develop the place. Aba is a huge slum, it's an embarrassment to the Igbo nation. The money they generate from Ariaria market alone is enough to turn things around.

If the citizens of the state should occupy the government house for just 4 days the state governor will be forced to fix all the roads in Aba. But we can't do this, rather we gather in churches and be praying for God to change our leaders. God does not change bad leaders, it is you the citizens that will take action.

Go to the north and see the kind of standard roads there but here what we have is China roads that doesnt last up to 7 months.

But it's not all about money, let me explain. Ebonyi state receives the lowest allocation in Nigeria yet the governor Dave Umahi has been able to develop the state with world class infrastructures all over the place. As a blogger I have been there several times to see things for myself.

Ebonyi used to be the poorest and least developed state in Nigeria but right now they are the fastest developing state in Nigeria all thanks to Dave Umahi. Maybe Abia state needs to borrow or loan Dave Umahi for just 1 year and see what true leadership is all about.

I am aware that the North gets most of the juicy appointments, allocations, mega projects etc but what about the little allocations that is given to us, what are we doing with it.

If Dave Umahi can turn his poor state around with little allocations then it means we are our own worst enemy. Na we dey do ourselves.

Let's Look at the rot in NDDC, see how they are raping us openly...

Even the Devil will tremble. Indeed there was a Country. And someone will coman tell me that the North is our problem?

Where are the Niger Delta youths and elders? Why can't we protests or take over the streets till these crooks are brought to book?


Hushpuppi is still a a learner, infact he is still a puppy. The difference between Hushpuppi and greedy Nigerian politicians is that Hushpuppi scammed whites while your greedy, heartless and visionless politicians scam Nigerians. The damages of their crime will be felt by generations yet unborn.

In all of these, the poor masses whose commonwealth is being looted are quiet. Infact the poor masses are even more confused coz they praise and hail the corrupt politicians that are stealing billions of dollars and kill hungry people that stole tubber of yam to feed their hungry children. SHAME

To successfully fight corruption you have to start from the top. Singapore today is like heaven, the cleanest and most beautiful country in the world with almost zero corruption. How did they do it? Because they fought corruption from the top.

Prostitution, armed robbery, yahoo yahoo, kidnapping etc are on the increase because of mass poverty caused by the people at the top. And until we start stoning these corrupt politicians nothing will change.


A lost nation is one which hungry and jobless people blindly support those responsible for their agony and misery
