SalamRushdie:
The last time he claimed he intervened , the Discos still silently went ahead to increase Tarriff
No increment on my bill so far, still the same amount and i also speak for my immediate community. We're under Ikeja DC and our tarriff has not been tampered with.

You must be a dunce to think Tinubu will do this without camera!! Even if tinubu shit now, it will be on camera
Tinubu has been serving the needs of prisoners and correctional centers right from his days as Governor. He does his thing without the need of putting camera in the faces of prisoners. People speak of what Tinubu does for them and not the other way round. There're levels to everything.

I don't know why Tinubu's supporters always see Peter Obi as threat to him. Why compare Obi with Tinubu in this comment now? Why are Tinubu's supporters feeling inferior for Tinubu?
He should stop chasing clout, people are doing way more than he is without much noise at the background. He should stop acting like a celebrity in the status of Davido, he should act his age like an elder stateman.

Nothing special here. I am aware how Tinubu patners with several mission houses to deliver reliefs to prisoners in Lagos state. He does that without going around for camera-Op. Constantly seeking public validation is a sign of low self esteem.

The President had intervened a couple of times from effecting an increase in price, i hope the President would keep his foot down and not allow them. Electricity has become more badly managed ever since the PDP Administration privatized NEPA to incompetent hands. It is absolutely ridiculous seeing FG still paying electricity subsidy to private businesses that had already bought over the national assets. I expect the Government to not extend their contracts after expiration and declare an open bid to more financially and technically competent investors.

I told you to stop showing me these Youtube shortclips, i know the southeast very well. If they supply the raw materials and they pick up some sandals in their trucks going back, is any bad in that?. Like i said, Onitsha or Aba is like a small town as the average Oshodi or Ikeja where market activities take place. Igbo need something bigger and better, a state-like, not these glorified mushrooms but mass migration cannot make it happen.

In Lagos?.. You see what i'm talking about, it'd have been a big flop in Anambra because they are lacking the essence of cosmopolitanism in the SE.

Ewe and Ga people which is the largest tribe in Ghana, Togo and Benin were actually part of Oyo, they even teach them in their schools that they are from Ile Ife.

Most of the people staying in gulf of Guinea identify as yoruba.

Yorubas are at the corridors of power in Sierra leon.

So where in Ogun State in developed to reflect this prosperity? The capital Abeokuta is a disaster compared to Onitsha, pictures below

Ibadan has been capital of the Western Region, tyen Oyo. Where is this place you people developed that did not have to be capital
Seems splattering pictures is your only consolation. what is shameful in houses that were built at the time your ancestors were living in mud huts and thatched roofs?, it easier to demolish mud and set thatches or palmtree leaves on fire to build blocks when you were finally exposed to civilization. Some people have been living in blocks decades before you. So, there's no shame in old houses.

And yet you do not have an Aba or Onitsha in your Region, all you have are places that have been capital for over 50 years. This is your claim to development
Ogun state was never a capital and it boasts the most industrialised state, Ibadan was never a capital, is one of the top industrialised cities in the country. Stop getting your head fixated on being a Capital state. Aba/Onitsha are village champions, igbos need more than village champions. My two cents.

Your comment on Mynd44 is so funny.

I swear the day I meet that suegbe, I might be tempted to slap him.

Do you know how many times I have seen him issue me year-long bans out of the yeye impartiality?

Same guy we are now defending here.. he was assisting his fellow mods to weed out anyone defending Yorubas while those ones were protecting their interests.

I can bet a million dollars., if Seun surveys 100 tribal threads, 95 are done by IPOB. That's a fact.
Lol, who doesn't know this notorious moniker?. The good old days, ban has calmed down everybody. Mynd would appear on a sweet thread where guys were busy feasting on those folks and he would spoil the fun. Una don try abeg.

The rule is in any endeavour never have the upper hand against Ibos. You'll be denigrated, rubbished, your integrity will be called into question. The Saurdana of Sokoto knows these people well.

Let the Nigeria divide, let everyone dey their lane. Abeg.
That stupid rule could only exist where they feed and clothe the rest of us but as long as they don't, they should go apply such rules in their villages.

Seun please open your eyes and read this excellent comment.

LindaIkeji openly let's her own site be pro nna.

Use their hatred to make money. Manipulate them to your advantage like Reno, Wike and now Tinubu smartly did. grin
I frequent Linda's blog, for every 1 Yoruba poster, there are 10 igbo posters, so there's no way Yorubas are getting away unscathed, Yorubas are being constantly insulted and beat down yet the only rules on Linda's forum is a disclaimer that she's not responsible for anybody's comment. Igbos want to have everything go their way and in cases where they find themselves lacking an edge, they cry for protection.

Swear down, either side is angry at mynd, meaning that he's been ontop of his game. I hope Seun won't fall for their blackmail. I can't believe i'm talking for Mynd44, he has really done me dirty.
Politics › Re: Allegations Of Tribalism Against Me & Nairaland by PressMyButton: 12:13pm On Dec 30, 2023
They accuse Seun of being tribalistic yet Linda Ikeji gave Igbos an open cheque to insult Yorubas on her platform. Atleast, it was obvious that Seun supported Obi at the last polls, how more tribalistic could he be.
Politics › Re: Allegations Of Tribalism Against Me & Nairaland by PressMyButton: 11:53am On Dec 30, 2023
Seun, those saying you should ban Mynd44 are the real enemies of Nairaland. Mynd44 bans anybody irrespective of their political leaning or ethnic affiliation. As a matter of fact, Yorubas are mostly angry with mynd44 having to ban them for responding to hate and insults from southeasterners. He has also deleted so many threads from posters on either side, some topics that were considered unharmful or aimed at setting the records straight, yet Mynd44 deleted because he considered such a bit too tribalist. I consider him a very active moderator but overwhelmed and needed some help. The scourge of antispam bots is not helping matters either, he has too many on his hands.

Dumb again,after Japan was bombed to nothing,the US moved occupied and totally demilitarized Japan. They governed Japan and installed there puppet to head Japanese government. You cry babies did not witness 1% of what Japan went through. You where immediately reintegrated into the system,given jobs and education,placated and embraced. But you dolts like oliver twist are not satiable. Come to think of it is it Yoruba or the Hausa the you love to hate are the same tribe you seek there support? You are more dumb than I thought.

You know nothing about Onitsha metro doesn't end along express Anu, if you thoroughly know Onitsha you will not be posting this, it clearly shows you are empty Upper Iweka is like Oshodi, it's easier for many Northern states to buy goods from Onitsha same with Southsouth than going to Lagos, Abuja is very close to Onitsha than Lagos Port Harcourt is three hours to Onitsha than Lagos, Onitsha is commercial nerve center
Kano, Kaduna are serving as a ready made market to Niger, Chad, Cameroon, all the way to Bukina faso. The trade volume between the North and their northern neigcours is very large that they also supply produce to North which the North supply to every part of Nigeria. You guys have no respect for the North, is it because they don't make noise in the media like you do?

landlocked kano state is never a commercial hub centre compared with Lagos with it's functional seaports;no thanks to western politicking.

Kano state gets all their goods from Lagos ditto Anambra state (Onitsha) the big difference is that the Ibos are the major importers even the major warehouses in Kano state are owned by the Ibo's.

I repeat, all Igbos cannot afford to come back home, they can build up their home from their base and that's what is happening in Onitsha and Nnewi which is unarguably servicing the whole south south region
I have never ranked Kano above Lagos but no state in SE comes close to Kano. You're all about imports and that's why Kano would always be ranked ahead of you.
