Excellent encapsulation

That is why we say we need to revert to 1963 constitution That is what our parents agreed upon before the military imposter forced another document down our throat

Now look at the way the country is structured Like you rightly observed the economy is rested on the sw and SS region if you drill it down you will see that the SS contribution is rent that is providence provision powered by ioc investments and high tech

You can now compare it with the sw To generate taxable income for city you will toil to generate vat you will provide service and add value to generate custom duty you will sweat Nothing that is generated from the sw comes easy

So why must sw be the beast of burden?

Like Musgrave said other regions are hiding their preferences because of freebies from the sw and SS The north can pay taxes to the bandits but can not pay a penny to the federal government The see has abundance of gas that is only generating pittance to federal government

Honestly elders can not be wrong If you flip the coin hundred times it will still fall on the same side

The way to go is the 1963 constitution That is the sure way that you will not be overheating the polity all the time


lawani:
From 1914 to independence more than 70 percent of Nigeria's revenue came from the old west then by 1967 there was civil war and dependence on oil started. On and off there was dependence on oil up till 2023 but now the whole country is dependent on the old west by more than sixty percent via CIT, PIT, VAT, customs etc and oil. It isn't healthy and it is also a thankless job. As in the people you feed do curse you. No tangible progress too. No security etc. So it is high time the country is broken up. Let everybody concentrate their effort on their land

I think people are missing the point. VDM is questioning the album's performance, not necessarily trying to promote it.

There is more to all this raping of minors, I'm not sure it is because of konji.
Which kind sexual pleasure/Enjoyment will they derive from this stupid act.
Na mental Illness, from illicit drroogg taking. Those youth can abuse anything.

The effect of those substances is that they no longer feel emotional or remorseful about any action they take.

Zlatan is a successful artist already. He doesn't need VDM's attention to promote his music.

Exactly! VDM might think he's mocking Zlatan, but he's actually helping to keep his name and album in people's conversations. As for Fiataids, I'm already a member, the site is still paying till date

Your Father will ROT in HELL.

We will NEVER FORGIVE OR FORGET.

That is how Currently IGBOS are being tagged IPOB terrorists and are being killed senselessly in NIGERIA. Later the SON or Daughter will come out to Apologise on behalf of the parents actions.

Its becoming OBVIOUS that IGBOs should engage the Israeli template and Go after Generations of the killers of IGBOs.

Nnamdi Kanu will be alive to see Biafra and celebrate the emancipation of his people.

The fact that THESE people always USE IGBOs to gain fame or trend is coming from a place of "attention seeking" ..not LOVE.

Anyway....na small time remain.

Soon anytime you hear IGBO matters , ypu will avoid it like Ebola. angry
Will the North forgive you and forget too?

Think about it. That’s one of the reasons they won’t vote for Obi. It’s either they vote for Atiku or Tinibu (Tinubu) 😀

If the album is good, it will speak for itself. It doesn't need controversy to survive.

20k in less than 3 hours is impressive. Was this your profit or you haven’t accounted for fuel used?

Why do Korope drivers look unkempt if they make so much money. You might have just been lucky that day.
Lack of financial discipline.

Most of these drivers are chronic womanizers and heavy drinkers. Small change they should be using to package themselves, they rather waste it on stuff that won't add anything to their life.

Just like Yakubu Gowon imported cement and iron rods that got wasted.

The massive cement import scandal under General Yakubu Gowon's administration in the mid-1970s—commonly known as the "Cement Armada"—was a major economic crisis in Nigeria.

Key Facts and Causes

• Over-Ordering: Between 1974 and 1975, the Federal Ministry of Defence and other government agencies placed uncoordinated orders for roughly 16 to 20 million metric tons of cement, far exceeding the nation's annual requirement of less than 5 million tons.
• Port Overload: The Port of Lagos (Apapa), which handled nearly all of Nigeria's imports and had an annual capacity of under 5 million tons, was completely overwhelmed.
• The "Cement Armada": More than 400 cargo ships loaded with cement descended on Lagos at the same time. Some vessels were forced to wait offshore for up to 12 months before they could offload.
• Financial Loss: Nigeria incurred massive daily demurrage fees (compensation paid to ship owners for delays), reportedly costing around $1 million per day and totaling hundreds of millions of dollars. Much of the cement hardened and spoiled on the ships or at the docks.
• Political Impact: The severe economic mismanagement, inflation, and chaos surrounding the scandal contributed to the weakening of Gowon's government, leading to his overthrow in a bloodless coup on July 29, 1975, led by General Murtala Mohammed.
