Everytime, Hausa and yorubas fighting in yoruba land!!

Yet it’s igbos they hate the most.

there’s something seriously wrong with that place

Grgton:
development is gradual.... Lagos didn't look like New York all of a sudden.

Even with the civil war, Anambra is one of the best states in Nigeria.. it's something to be proud of, no basis for comparison with Lagos.

ive been banned multiple times after opening this page.

I don’t know what crime I’ve committed

Governors, Traditions rulers and Ministers of South West extraction in the Federal Government met on Sunday November 8, 2020 with a Presidential delegation in Lagos gave the Federal Government nod to curtail the use of social media by a “regime of checks and gate keeping”.

The leaders of the South West also agreed with Prof Ibrahim Agboola Gambari led Presidential delegation to “use the instrumentality of existing laws and those regulations bench-marked from other countries to provide safeguards against the spread of fake news. 2015 Cyber Act will also be fully used”.

The monarchs also back the call for restructuring of the country and urge government to re-open boarders to enhance better trade activities.

The communique after the meeting was signed on their behalf by Arakunrin Rotimi Akeredolu, governor of Ondo State, and Oba Adeyeye Ogunwusi, the Ooni of Ife.

Below is the 13 point communique:

Communique issued today (Sunday 8th November 2020) after a meeting of Governors and Traditional Rulers of South West States and Presidential delegation, including Ministers from the South West*


We express appreciation to Mr. President and his administration on the responsiveness to the initial demands of the ENDSARS demonstrators and for his firm handling of the aftermaths of the protest.
We endorse the call by traditional rulers for regular consultations with state governors and federal authorities on challenges facing the state and for appropriate recognition of their role in the Constitution.
The security architecture of the country requires adjustment to adequately address the threats and realities of insecurity in the country. There should be more police presence in communities in the South west states.
While there are legitimate concerns contained in the initial ENDSARS movement, these have been hijacked by criminals and other elements with ulterior and negative forces and degenerated into anarchy.
There is a need to undertake preventive actions aimed at prevention of repeat of what happened in the country following the ENDSARS demonstrators. Security needs to be strengthened in all states.
We wish to encourage the Nigeria Police by responding to their needs and appeal to them to do more to protect lives and properties and enhance security all over the country.
We call for specific measures and proposals to repair damage done to the physical infrastructure and economic assets of the South West.
Review of reports of constitutional conferences including the 2014 National Conference and implement some of the recommendations especially with reference to security, economy, equal treatment for citizens all over the country.
We believe that the prolonged closure of the border has caused economic difficulties and should be re-examined to alleviate problems of the people in the border communities and prices of some essential commodities. There is a need to review the closure and permit resumption of economic and trading activities.

A comprehensive programme that addresses youth employment and empowerment should be prioritized. Closer coordination and complementarity between the states and the Federal Government. In this regard, the curricular of tertiary institutions should be reviewed, with emphasis placed on skills acquisition and entrepreneurship.


We recognize the damaging and negative impact of fake/false news and worry about its destructive and dangerous potency of fake news. We call on the federal government to use the instrumentality of existing laws and those regulations bench-marked from other countries to provide safeguards against the spread of fake news. the 2015 Cyber Act will also be fully used.


The Federal Government should ensure that technology is used effectively for the advancement of the Nigerian Security and not its destruction by working with the technology cum social media platforms like Facebook, Twitter, Instagram etc. The regime of checks and gate keeping should be fully employed.


We urge that every effort should be made to resolve the impasse between ASUU and the federal government so that students can return to school in earnest.

Awka

OkutaNla:
You igbos, particularly those of you from Anambra, should check yourselves. Your hubris will keep dragging you back in life. I repeat, Lagos no be una mate. If una dey develop, that's fine and well, but keep Lagos out of your mouth coz una no reach. Stay on your local lane and develop at your pace without running down Lagos.

why do you keep mentioning tribes in this?

How bigoted are you?

No one said nor did they drag any tribe into this.

Here you are being all tribalistic

I wonder why they let you still comment on this site.

Everything is a knife fight with the igbos

Arrewa:
is that one you are posting not few building from 3_3 and fegge!

Show us the real Anambra

you’re not making sense man.

Go through the images and stop acting out

Real estate has blown up over the last 10yrs.

Showing a mass migration to the state.

Some highbrow areas in anambra

OkutaNla:
Igbos should stop this hatred for Lagos. If you people hate Lagos so much, then relocate to Anambra. Lagos is not in competition with Anambra. Una no reach.

there you go with your shallow, tribalistic thinking...

Who mentioned tribe and hate here?

OkutaNla:
Op this is an insult to Lagos. You can celebrate your Anambla without trying to drag Lagos down. What is with you igbos and your pull it down mentality. If una no like Lagos relocate abeg.

a few high rise isn’t justifiable.

I knw you judge with tall buildings.

But you cannot deny the steady growth of anambra in every endeavor

On the surface

Some “ghettos” in anambra

Anambra

This isn’t Europe..this is anambra

Anambra private indigenous investment drive is second to none

More anambra

I know this topic would rile some people up.

One has to admit that what anambra has achieved hust in years is unprecedented.

Hedging on the messed up war..anambra seems to bounce back with a force that cannot be reckoned with.

Following its financial and private investment stride..the state seems to be catching up with the former capital of Nigeria, Lagos

Anambra has maintained the top 10 position in finance, education, infrastructure and private investment.

Lagos on the other hand has been on a steady decline over the years which has somewhat heartbreaking

Some few pix of anambra .


Modified:

Ok, I dunno how some unscrupulous characters got the notion that this thread was taking a swipe at the yorubas.

Such insipid vitriol is a bush league move by some delinquents

This seed of disconcertion is eating deep into the psyche of some folks.

Full disclosure: this here is a healthy competition between states in Nigeria and has nothing to do with tribe.

Lagos being:

Former capital for 100 years.

Enjoying collective investment

Enjoying federal infrastructural largesse

Hasn’t been in a war

While her counterpart, anambra has:

Been totally destroyed in a war.

Was never a capital.

Enjoys only indigenous investments.

No federal assistance whatsoever...

These 2 locations are in loggerheads in terms of:

Education.

Financial sustainability.

Investements and growth

This thread isn’t a tribalistic banter page..

Spoken like a true sellout.

He’s benefiting from the same system oppressing the People he ought to fight for..

This here is what happens when you place monetary gain over moral poise

Seems like obiano is the only reasonable governor in the East.

At least he’s pretending to care.


But the others are Jst lackeys to the buhari govt.

American hip hop news channel has registered their solidarity with the Nigerian struggle to end police brutality.

The post came at the precipice of protests currently raging through the country.

Tragedy is her country has failed her.

Hasn’t it failed all of us?

Except you’re in govt and/or civil service no one is smiling at the moment

Obviously mentally unstable woman

yarimo:
this is very good development

this money could’ve been used to get you a proper education and/or a well paying job or used to help those 20million northerners world health proposed would die from malnourishment b4 2030.

But hey, money well spent..right?

JAMO84:
They would still call Buhari a terrorist. Ingrates.

what has buhari got to do with this?

Follow news bro..don’t be a noob

myBraine:
Really?

What about the millions of Nigerians that booted you out in 2015?

You should be fighting them for replacing you with a candidate that is far inferior to you in performance. How can they substitute you with a more dangerous devil instead of a lesser one? How?

sometimes, you gotta sit back and let karma do her thing.

That’s the joy of life

Now they want to break up?

They voted in this disaster to “deal with the igbos”

Now they’re suffering from their disingenuous move, they’re screaming breakup.

Hypocrites!!

Modified:
Those calling me out..guess you weren’t on nairaland in 2015?

Even post 2015 when igbos were referred to as “wailers” or “5%ers”

Now posterity has come knocking, many of you and your tribes men are denying your actions.

Life is Good

And why didn’t this post make front page?

Oh I forgot, western Nigeria is put on a bad spot here.

Rather you indulge your political class and cover up their ineptitude, you all should expose and shame them so they can do better.

“It added that among the states that are not fiscally sustainable Osun, Oyo, Kogi, Ekiti and Plateau states occupy the worst positions”

13 states were unable to fund their recurrent expenditure obligations together with their loan repayment schedules due in 2019 with their respective total revenues.

“The worst hit of these 13 states are – Lagos, Oyo, Kogi, Osun and Ekiti states while the other states on this pendulum are Plateau, Adamawa, Bauchi, Gombe, Cross River, Benue, Taraba and Abia.

Lol..

I thought they said Oyo can feed the entire East?

Even ebonyi is doing better than them.

The East got no time for frivolities.

Wish we can do better and compete with USA and east Asia.

Tinubu being dragged

More

Some persons have taken to Twitter to celebrate and taunt individuals involved in the edo elections.

clearly ecstatic persons have passive aggressively made fun of the ideology of godfatherism in Nigeria especially in the Lagos oligarchy.

Don’t blame just the president..

Blame those that voted him in twice

Well, after watching a pastor make good on his promise of killing his wife, this should be an added measure.

This pastor been crass and autocratic in his practices even towards odumeje
