And these people thinks they can unseat Jagaban ?

North did eight years. Why not allow power to rotate in peace in Nigeria

lol
He defeated them the first time when they ganged up against him even with Bihari and all his cabals.
He didn't have federal power then.
He will run over them this time around.They are a minute minority.

Believeintruth:
The proof is all over. Human capacity index, GDP and Per capita income all have south east doing far better.

HDI always changes.In recent time,SW has gotten a lot more migration from both the SE and the North and they have contributed in no small measure to the poulace of almost no positive HDI but as for IGR and the other positivities,SW has always been consistent in being the leader of the whole nation because of their competence and versatility.

LastGiantAlive:
Very good . Now tell the amala of yoruba people eyes to divide the country since Ekiti vat alone can power the whole of Europe and south east asia combined. Let us yoruba muslims now go and govern ourselves. This is the right time. We can't continue to beg for unity despite having high IGR without toilet facilities

The bitter truth pain this one for blockoss

maxiuc:
This is Tinubu style of leadership

Slow down the Economy

Slow down people purchasing power

Create hunger and starvation

Then introduce palliative to keep you in cage and chains ⛓️⛓️

This is how he builds his followers

And his followers are even better than Obi your saviour and messiah..

emmy512:
Headline is misleading.
Saying it like US rangers were sent in.

Meanwhile just private mercenaries that happens to be Rangers or atleast some of them.

Those mercenaries,thousands of them were sent by NATO govts but Russia will decimate them all.
I hate the monopoly that USA and EU are projecting.Thank God for Russia,China etc.

Praxis758:
If Peter Obi had won and ruling Nigeria like this; APC, TVC and the core north would have chased him out of Aso Rock.

It would have been worse than this.
Removing subsidy is not a bean cake.
It affects the tiniest fabric of the Nigerian society.
Only an expert can do it and wriggle out of the pain soonest.

JobAndVacancies:
That's why we need Trump.
If you're supporting a woman to take over the Word's greatest powerful Nation then you're not only a fool but you're evil

If Russia and USA are left to take on themselves without NATO,then USA is a goner.USA always hides behind and under NATO.
Russians are ruthless fighting machines.

Jokerman:
Noted.

I visited Ogun state for business, and with the IGR the state generates, things should be better...

That is why they are more developed than Anambra.

Some people are so poor that they cant pay taxes.Poor souls.

Jokerman:
Oga, I'm not an indigene of Anambra

I am not an indigene of Ogun either but I know it is more developed than Anambra.
I have been to the two states.

Jokerman:
Hope say you know say na only Abeokuta be the developed part of Ogun state

Do you mean that Awka is the developed part of Anambra?
If you are game,let us post the videos of tje two states for comparison.
The only place you can post in Anambra is the tiny Onitsha built by Igala and Yoruba/Bini descendants.

Everybody knows that Ogun state is more developed than Anambra state.

kettykin:
Nigerian army is now a very sectional army .

Very local. Thank God there all alternatives incase of war or foreign invasion.

So it was a national one before appointing this major general
It is only when your kith and kin are appointed that your insinuation will disappear,ehn?

mrvitalis:
It's not poor performance it's intentional

Limit business tax to allow them grow

Obi said same thing

IMO, Abia and Anambra can easily raise 150 billion each

With mouth.
Talk is indeed cheap.
Those states are poor,sir.

Jokerman:
Please before you attack me as usual to go back to my states.

Please I just need answer to the above topic above??

Take for instance, Ogun state. The high IGR that state generates, yet even Abeokuta is nothing to write home about, I was just there yesterday for a business at Oke Mosan, I was not happy, thought the monies generated could have been better.

What about Lagos state?? Some areas on the mainland still don't have good roads, good drainages, and water still floods some parts of the island too.. I begin to wonder, what is happening with all these generated revenues. Lagos state should be on the level of Johannesburg, Alexandria etc, in Africa

What about Rivers state, Delta and Bayelsa states? With all the oil revenues yet, poverty even in their state capitals?

When will citizens starts asking these leaders questions? Or is it a Black Man problem?? Because I know if Nigeria was a white country, it would have been one of the leading destinations in the world...

At least,Ogun state is more developed than Anambra state.

Racoon:
Nice one! There is really a need for the bridge as that junction is always busy especially for traffic inbound to Abakaliki, Ikom, Cameroon etc.

That market needs to be relocated ASAP.Akanu Ibiam Airport Perimeter Fence course closely that area while NNPC Enugu depot is also around that area.

That is not a market,it is where people live,sir.
The cloth spread is the telltale.

covidkiller:
There's no growth there.

Four years ago, $1 = N470
Therefore, N70 billion = $149 million

Today, $1 = N1,600
Therefore, N147.8 billion = $92 million


So, the state actually DECLINED from $149 million to $92 million in 4 years, recording a mega loss of $57 million.

Don't allow them deceive you. The state didn't do well.

lol
Your insinuation goes to the other states too especially the poor South East states.
This means that they are very much down the ladder.

Artscollection:
You are very stupid!!! Anyone that can't see where the country is heading is brain dead!!!
If you still feel that tunubu is more intelligent than the past president I have no choice than to insult your stalled brain.

lol
Only if you know me.
You sound below dreariness.

BafanaBafana:
Lol.. make Jonathan try contest. They will bring out his file. As a president, Jonathan was bad. Buhari was worse, Tinubu is the worst. We should look for good leaders, not failed ones.

None of them is as good as Tinubu.
Tinubu touched the fabrics of the livelihood of Nigeria which should have been done a long,long time ago but nobody had the gut or intelligence to do it.
They all ruled Nigeria "cosmeticologically".
Like painting a wobbling house instead of doing the needful.
I blame Tinubu and his cohorts for not allowing Jonathan (who had made money more than any president or head of state,dead or alive,according to OPEC) to remove the oil subsidy during his time but it also showed the weakness of President Jonathan then.
If you are sure of your policies and your plan,you wouldnt listen to charlatans or succumb to their political innuendos.
Look at how many protests that had been staged against Tinubu but he is standing his ground confidently even as we are going through a lot of pain.
People and institutions are saying that he is building a solid,positve but painful foundation for Nigeria but can we stand this hurtful pain?
Things are really hard.

richmond500:
battery torches, not electric torch.
That pic said electric torch. How many households had electricity in 1930s. When lots of households lives in small mud hut.

Everything about our bloders is always fake.
Surely, that is not a 1930 pic because of those merchandise.

Please get this book. Study the first 5 chapters as if you want to write exams. Others can be studied at your pace. Its going bring some clarity in how you pen your thoughts.

Kettle rebuking the pot.

When they are not in govt or out of it,they become angels.
One of the looters of our commonwealth talking like a pastor.Wicked people.

KGBKremlin:
More than that

lol
Israel has a law that censors announcing number of fatalities amongst its army except the number given by the govt.
Unfortunately,some residents around the military base filmed a part of the event clarifying that three soldiers died.
I was watching the video of the conference hall of the Golani army targeted and there was blood all over the place.

Laziness,incompetence but the urge to be rich criminally.

Celestialsword:
these ports built by the FG in the south are not working

They are working.
Google is there to help you.

Celestialsword:
Some Yoruba people have bragged about Igbo people being in Lagos, but they never knew that had it the Yoruba had not monopolised the seaport in Nigeria, no Igbo man would be in Lagos as Lagos would have turned into a graveyard.

Nigeria is a country where more than 200 million people make use of the Lagos seaport when it can be distributed among regions. There are seas with proximity to the ocean in Bayelsa, Calabar, Akwa Ibom, Warri, Anambra, Abia, and Imo, yet the Nigerian government has denied the East seaport.

Ndi Igbo being in Lagos is a plus to the Yoruba people. These Igbo people were denied seaports and forced to be in Lagos. As the highest importers in Nigeria, Ndị́ Igbo were forced to travel miles away from their homes to clear their goods. Many had lost these goods to bad federal roads in the East while bringing them down to Ịgbo land. Instead of losing goods all the time, they decided to lock up their shops in Onitsha and relocate to Lagos. Since then they are not only contributing to the IGR of Lagos, they are also developing Lagos.

Imagine a situation where Anambra or Warri, or even Abia or Akwa Ibom, have a working Seaport. Do you think our people will be trooping into Lagos? They will stay in their land and develop it.

If you take away the monopoly of seaports from Lagos, Lagos will lose its taste. That's because Igbo people will head home and replicate what you see in Lagos back home.

As an Igbo man, you must stop feeling that Yoruba people are doing you a favour because you are in Lagos. It is the other way around. You are the one doing them a favour. They connived with the Fulani to have the seaports to themselves.

When you say this they say don't you have seaport in Warri and Calabar. Funny people. This is how they do it. They will make sure you pay more if you decide to use Calabar or Warri seaports. They will also use their men in charge of those places to frustrate your goods. By the time your goods spend 6 months without clearing it, you will learn to use Lagos seaport. If you are from Warri or Calabar and you claim you have a seaport, then you are a clọ́wn.

Elochukwu Ohagi, Philosopher, Teacher and Activist, 2024.

Are you for real?
Ibadan didnt have a seaport during regionalism but it became the richest,most developed and most progressive...all of these even than Lagos....in Nigeria even West Africa.
Ibadan was where your ancestors were fleeing to then until envy and jealousy covered your people's eyes making Ironsi enact decree 34 and unitary system of govt was birthed.
Gowon rode on this to create 12 states until Nigeria finds itself in this sorry state.

The problem with your people is laziness and incompetence not only seaport.
There are places without seaports and they are progressive.

Smartcitizen:
Pictures speaks🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣

Even a blind man can spot the difference between responsible and irresponsible people.


The owners of this shanty is enjoying in Lagos built with Niger Delta money.

🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣

Abriba that is not up to half of a GRA in Ibadan that has more than 11 GRAs.
Cowards and their double mouths.
Ok,post your Abriba,make I post half a GRA wey pass am for Ibadan.
grin

And if you are afraid to post 8 videos in all of Igboland to be compared with Ibadan,then you are a coward.

This is a callenge no Igboman dead or alive can face without saying dumb stories like Abriba.

BadBradley:
Village illiterate foo.

Look for the nearest palm tree and climb atop, I see you're struggling with network.

Fake Igbo man who is arguing with Azikiwe and Obi of Onitsha

BadBradley:
If you say Onitsha is Yoruba then your mother lied to you who your father is.

After the loss of Kwara and Ilorin I can understand how a defeated human maggot like you can't understand not every people can bend under subjugation.

Your forebears were overan and obliterated and your history is marked with obscuring.

Your prei-independence brown roofs are a landmark of your underdevelopement, laziness and lack of drive.

From Badagry to Lagos at the express is empty of any infrastructure that's how the word knows Lagos development has nothing to do with the indigenes.

And that's why all of South west cannot have anything near what Lagos is because if they built Lagos they would have built Ibadan or Ogun or Osun .

Human tse-tse fly like you and your dirty heritage concerned Lagos to be Africa's cesspit headquarters because your your penchant for dottiness and laziness.

Compare any your brown roof to Owerri, Enugu, Onitsha, Obosi or eden Nnewi ans I slap you back to your mother's menstrual cycle.

And if you dare quote a blog as source for me again, I'll go to make your surname disappear as your identity disappeared in illori and Kogi.

Ewedu-munching dog!

Dont be a mumu,sir.
Fake Igbo man who is arguing with Azikiwe and Obi of Onitsha.

Smartcitizen:
I'm from Abriba in Ohafia local government area of Abia state and I bet you NO LOCAL PLACE IN SOUTH WESTERN NIGERIA IS AS BEAUTIFUL AND AS DEVELOPED AS MY PLACE.

I don't even want to talk about Nnewi in Anambra State.

Goggle can help you too.


Tell us the name of your village?

🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣

lol
Is it Abriba that you want to post its videos against Ibadan?
Abriba that is not up to half of a GRA in Ibadan that has more than 11 GRAs.
Cowards and their double mouths.
Ok,post your Abriba,make I post half a GRA wey pass am for Ibadan.


And if you are afraid to post 8 videos in all of Igboland to be compared with Ibadan,then you are a coward.

This is a callenge no Igboman dead or alive can face without saying dumb stories like Abriba

Smartcitizen:
After all these grammer you never made any sense at all because Lagos still remains the property of the Binis and that's why it is called a NO MAN'S LAND OF NIGERIA.

And besides, when are you going to tell us the name of your village let's see how it looks like.

Irresponsible lots of south west.


Lagos has made you people the BEAST OF NO NATION.


🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣

Ok.
We are all from Ibadan.
Are you happy now?
Now,which cesspit in SE can you post its videos to compete with Ibadan?
None.They are all mostly desert with sparsly built houses reason you all cling to 52 SQ KM Onitsha built by Yorubas.
Facts na pepper for eye of falsehood.
