Nigeria is one of the most undertaxed nations on earth. Nigerians, comparatively speaking, don't pay tax.

Moroccoguy:
We have enough of our own school and supermarket built by Nigerian, leave their school and business for them, so far they pay tax to government I no get issue, NEXT supermarket is own by a Nigerian as well as other stores.

That means you accept being a second-class citizen in your own country, as they can enter your supermarkets, but you can't enter theirs.

It just shows Yorubas are alert now more than ever..
I laighed when I saw Igbos clamouring for Military to take power from PBAT, a Yoruba man through coup.. like they expect over 80 million Yorubas including those in the diaspora to just sit down, fold their arms and do nothing. They feel they'll sit down comfortably in Lagos and other parts of Yorubaland and be doing their business while pretending as if all is well.

The problem you have, is that you think it's ONLY Igbo people that are against this terrible government. Most "normal" human beings, that care about their well-being and the well-being of their children (...those that will come after them), have reservations about this administration. Even the Yoruba folks that were shouting PBATs name, prior to elections, are all regretting their decision.

SoNature:
I don't expect anyone to like this comment because I am not here to please anyone - I like the way the United States keeps close tabs on the world.

Black people are too heartless for self-rule without proper supervision. If the black man was as smart as white folks, no part of this world would be free today. Black men are utterly ruthless and terribly evil, especially towards themselves.

So you are ruthless and terribly evil or are you the exception?

Iwuanyanwu has Upgraded from calling the SW Political Rascals

He is now trying to Frame them for a non existent Genocide and engaging in blatant ethnic incitement

Iwuanyanwu wasn't half this Loquacious when Kanu ordered ipob to burn down Lagos and delete it's leaders

The man spoke about the criminals, bandits, not Yoruba people. The Bandits could have been anyone, from anywhere.

Why do you people always lose your mind when Igbo people look out for their own interests? That's about, what every other ethnic group does in Nigeria, especially Yoruba people, who are the champions of ethnopolitics.

You guys are so weird. So do you not want Igbo people to care about themselves? Or do you want Igbo people to care more about you, than they do themselves? I don't see any Northern politicians or leaders speaking out against any injustices meted out to Igbo people. Which one of them spoke, during the elections in Lagos? They all kept quiet, and played dumb.

HellVictorinho6:
their ambition is to enslave as many nigerians as possible and bury them in poverty



the constitution is perfect to them since it gives them power to run political parties 4 selfish reasons


thatz why nigeria has the highest number of people including farmers suffering from multi dimensional poverty.

Who did you vote for?

papyjaypaul:


I'm sorry, your comparison is not passing the point. We applauded Glo when they came but they started messing up and some people wanted us to use sentiments to accept shitty service. They always want Nigerians to turn a blind eye to good service in the name 9f fellow Nigerian. It's our businesses that suffer because people pay for convenience, they don't pay for shitty service. Air Peace, if it doesn't maintain high standard will not succeed because if they fall below par, people will pay for convenience and excellent service,which is the advantage the foreign airlines have. I think you should watch Allen Onyema's interview on Arise to understand.

You think Japanese people purchased Toyota vehicles at its inception because it was the best? Granted, a brand must improve, but that can only happen with patriotic citizens. Support your own, foreigners don't give a crap about you. Their only interest is profit, and if that's disrupted, even for just a week or month, they'll disappear, then you'll have NOTHING.

That "naija" attitude subsists because the government allows it to remain so! If you make the mistake of not taking care of the open space between your house and the road in any sub division in America.......the municipality where you live will use you to boost their IGR, the kind of fine they will levy on you will change you for the better!

Even where you place your waste bins is regulated............in most suburbs you are made to hide away your waste bin in your car garage! In Nigeria anything goes, it is worse with the usual ill disciplined and mercantile attitude of ndigbo! Buying,selling and renting occurs everywhere and anyhow!

I'm pretty sure such laws already exist in Anambra. I know a law exists that regulates how far or close to the roads one can build.

The issue in this instances is simply enforcement. Which is pretty difficult to do, when you don't have a police force.

Ndigbo have a survival mindset. Which is understandable, when you consider the number of administrations Nigeria has had, over the past 6 decades. Coups, counter coups, democracy then coups again. Nigeria has existed in a state of lawlessness for a long time.

Reorientation is what is required right now, and from the looks of things, that's what Soludo is doing. It won't happen overnight, it'll take time, but eventually, the people and their mindset will start to change.

proeast:


Four things that make a country look very third world and unkept are:

1. Open gutters.
2. Lack of constant power supply.
3. Unpaved frontages.
4. Bad/dirth roads inside cities.

It won’t cost much for the government to enforce the use of interlocking tiles on all frontages facing the major roads. That’s how it is even in other developing countries. How much would it cost to plant flowers and trees, and maintain them like in other progressive developing countries?

These governors travel to all these places constantly yet they never think it’s necessary to replicate them here. Are we too wretched to enjoy even basic things people in other developing countries now take for granted?

The reason those things are not done is because of the culture of Nigeria. Which is quantity over quality. A governor would rather build 50 low quality roads, than 5 high quality roads, with covered drainage, paving stones etc... In short, they could do all of that, but then, you'd have far less motorable roads, overall. As that all costs a lot of money.

Government needs to boost its revenue, get people paying taxes etc... so it can create/build all these amenities.

You guys or guy, needs to be committed. When will you tire, it's been more than 10 years?

mrvitalis:

Black have it too they are just to poor to run the tests involved

You guys hear they did all the test and found nothing, treated him nothing improved

While na only basic test them do

Not in the UK, testing is done on all ethnic groups equally, the government makes sure of it. They'll send you a thousand letters to get checked out, once you reach a certain age.

Deadlytruth:

How does this relate with my comment there?

Yoruba people have successfully alienated themselves. I think, EVERYONE in Nigeria is now against Yoruba people, or at the very least, don't trust a word that comes out of any of their mouths.

Deadlytruth:


So which tribe from the south joined NPC MPs in voting for Balewa in the parliamentary in 1960?

Thank God you admit that Igbos shared their votes among NPP and NPN. How does that now change the fact that Shagari whom a part of Igbos voted for was the worst candidate on the ballot in that election?

In 1993 Tofa swept Igbo states clean. Google is your friend.

You agree you voted for Obasanjo in 1999. Now was Obasanjo the best candidate in the ballot going by the antecedents of all the contestants?

In 2007, was Yaradua the best candidate going by all the factors of determination?

Abiola had a chequered past, with ties to drug trafficking in the Americas. Obasanjo was better than that tribal champion you mentioned.

Yaradua was the only realistic candidate on the ballet, given the rotational system that was "supposedly" in motion. Though, that's all gone to crap with another Yoruba man emerging as president, and a tribal champion at that.

...

Deadlytruth:


The age of Methuselah, the say, has nothing to do with the wisdom of Solomon.
If Igbos so much believe in democracy that they had been practising it for years as you claim, then how come the same Igbos were the first to truncate democracy in the history of Nigeria through the senseless January 15 1966 coup by which they shed so much blood of innocent politicians and military officers of other regions save theirs who were actually guilty of the very corruption they cited as the reason for the coup? So much for a democracy loving people. Hehehe.....

Did Igbo people truncate Nigeria's democracy or did the military do it? The fact that they were led by an Igbo man is/was irrelevant. The military did what it felt right, to rescue the country from whatever plight they thought was enveloping the country at the time.

The actions of the coup leader is no more a reflection of Igbo people, than the countless coups that occurred afterwards, by primarily Northern military officers. I don't see anyone blaming the entirety of the North for the actions of a few opportunistic military figures. No, that treatment is only reserved for Igbo people, along with all the other rationalisations people like yourself have, for just being an outright dreadful human being.

Deadlytruth:

Why is it only Igbos that keep adopting every politician as their son? After adopting OBJ for promising to hand over power to an Igbo man but later disappointed you and picked a Fulani man together with an Ijaw man, wasn't that enough for you to stop your stupid adoption of other tribes' sons? You also adopted Yaradua a Fulani man. You think the other five regions are evil and foolish for not ever adopting a candidate not truly from their region? You Igbos are too frivolous and emotional hence always take stupid decisions which when they begin to boomerang, rather than admit your folly, you are resort to victim card play and term all other regions evil people as if there is any form of godliness in your own shortsightedness and frivolity. Continue adopting other regions' candidates and be deluding yourself as being godly. The truth is that Igbos are politically immature and unrealistic.

Igbo people have been practising the democratic process for more than a thousand years. Yoruba and Hausa are feudal peoples. How can you call Igbo people politically immature, when they have the longest experience with this process?

You don't see Igbo people giving out block votes, based on frivolous things, such as tribe. Instead, they always vote for whomever is the best candidate on the ballet. Yoruba and Hausa people are not there yet, but eventually, hopefully, with time, education and evolution of culture, they will get there. So that we can have good leaders in Nigeria, and not thieves and tribal champions like Tinubu and Buhari.

Bmaster:
igbos don't need appointments from Tinubu's government,all they clamor for is a good governance where their business and their investments will be protected.if the current government can create a business-friendly atmosphere then we're good




Let naira-dollar rate comes down to at least where it was before MAY 29 2023.

Igbo people do need appointments, and we need the presidency - this is non-negotiable. If an Igbo doesn't become president soon, then Nigeria loses its legitimacy.

We (Igbo) are not slaves in our own land.

Ttipsy:
you are such disgrace to Anambra people.
I dare you to post your documents

That guy is not one of us. Ignore him. Hopefully, he'll give up.

That is to tell you that Anambra and Igbos in general don't worship a mere politician that is even a people's servant.
Unlike other regions that believe politicians are god's to be feared .
If you do anyhow, you collect. Soludo I believe is smart, but I don't think he's a good person.
For him to be attacking Peter Obi just because of he's personal ambition, show's lack of leadership skills.

That's all this is about. Soludo's attack on Peter Obi. You guys trying to smear Soludo's administration, need to be honest with yourselves. Soludo is doing a good job as governor, far better than Obiano, in just 2 years.

Who cares about his moral character, as long as he does his job - he's not a celebrity. His job is to govern. Attacking another politician for ones own personal ambition is NORMAL. The problem is, the tenants of democracy only really exist in the South-East. Everywhere else in Nigeria, they treat democracy as a form of new-age feudalism.

Biodun556:
Naira is bouncing back and everything is being done to fight the artificial spike but if you didn’t ask Buhari to return it to N300 (parallel market) where he met it in 2015 or you didn't ask Obasanjo to return it to N21, if you fear God, you should give Tinubu some breathing space before asking him to make it N780.

Don't die of hypocrisy.

It was N21 in 1999 before Obasanjo was sworn in and Obasanjo left it at N120-N125 in 2007. 104% fall.

In 2009, Yar’adua left it at N145-N171. Official and parallel market respectively
46% fall.

And by the time Jonathan was leaving in 2015, it was N199-N300.
129% fall.

By 2023 when Buhari left, it was N420 at official rate and N780 at parallel market.
480% fall.

Without floating it, it fell by 104% under Obasanjo: 46% under Yar'adua; 129% under Jonathan and 480% under Buhari...without floating it.

By 2027 when Tinubu will finish his term, it will be just and fair to rate his performance. You can go ahead and start to sell Toyota, the truth is what is posted above. Don’t come and be unfortunate by acting as if somebody did any good job with our exchange rate despite the volume of subsidy put into it.

In conclusion, I have seen that President Tinubu is all out to fix that problem once and for all but it will be a long battle. Binance has been deactivated and fined. Illegal BDCs are finding it difficult to operate while over a thousand have been deregistered among other decisive steps and going by the number of BDCs Emefiele registered and a lot of economic criminalities known to us all, one won't be surprised at how it fell by 480% between May 29, 2015 and May 29, 2023 despite its non floatation.

Sir Sunday Adewale Adeniran

Tinubu is senile - I thought that was clear to everyone. I don't know how you guys reason in Nigeria. But in the West, when we look at Tinubu, we see a senile old man, just like Joe Biden. Neither of them should be anywhere near power. They need to rest.

Biodun556:


But chinedu Rhode-Vivor is representing ndi igbo

How is a Yoruba man, a native Lagosian, representing Igbo people?

blabulu2000:
See the Slowpoke ...some Yoruba people in Lagos state and some Real.Lagosian are clamouring to become the No 1 person of .Lagos state ...

Idiot...no be Jonathan built Lagos state ..nah Obi Peter built Lagos state....I know the Chinedu Gbadebo is a Yiibo Project and Mole in Lagos state ....and since he has achieved the evil h has been sent to do in Lagos state...so he kept on foaming shame from his.mouth like a down syndrome patient....

You people have fallen off so badly. It seems every Yoruba person is clamouring to attach themselves to Lagos. Is Yorubaland that bad?

All this diabolical stuff Yoruba people are doing. You guys need to stop, because God doesn't like ugly. If you don't agree with him, then don't. There's no need to turn every situation into a reason to spew hatred upon Igbo people.

Putindbutt:

His headline is funny to me, maybe he doesn't know we're talking about 188MW, and he's saying every manufacturer should relocate there, that small power will collapse. Since FG has since electricity bill into law, i expect more investors to set up power plants in any state of interest pretty soon.

The bill was passed by Buhari, almost a year ago. What are the investors waiting for?

swagana:


Brother,Chino is Anambrafirstson and this very slowpoke shitting on this thread.

I know what Chino looks like, because he used to have a picture on his profile, back in the day. He looks nothing like Anamabra1stSon. Besides, is far more progressive, occasionally he gets involved in the banter, but usually, its in defence of Igbo people. Not Igbo vs Igbo, unlike Chino the Idoma man. I know he's Idoma, because he told me - way back when.

FOXDOSSIER:
Ewu atulu awusa you only show up when I respond but you are never found when these ediots start causing problems. You have been on this website for over two decades wasting away

Why are you even on this thread? You're NOT Igbo. I've got nothing against Idoma people, but please, focus on the development of your own people, i.e. Kogi State.

swagana:


Always dick measuring...When they are tired of disgracing ndi Igbo at national and international level with this nonsense behaviour they will crawl back home and face their Igbo brothers.

That guy is not Igbo he's Idoma. He's been on this website for over a decade, and spends all his time causing enmity amongst Igbo people. Instead of focusing on his own people in Kogi state and the rest of them.
