Smh. To think that these fellows are actually bragging and gloating over what they term 'group economics'. If other ethnicities were to also aggressively and collectively adopt such protectionist practices, needless to say that the Igbos won't even have any other market outside their region as they would simply not be welcomed. I don't blame them though. Na my Yoruba folks I blame for stvpidly embracing them without reservation, only to be called fools in return, and openly lectured about how smarter they are for practicing 'group economics'. Shio.

Obviously this explains why the SE region is more homogeneous and unattractive to non-igbos than any other region of the country; because their so-called 'Group Economics' is so ingrained that non-natives engaged in trade or business in the SE get systematically stifled and left with no other choice than to leave their region for them alone. But if they were on the receiving end they will be screaming marginalization and Igbo hatred. Very hypocritical and unaccommodating lot.

Better woman. E better make she sell am, use part of the money buy Innoson brand and use the remainder of the money to empower her constituents. The governor no try at all.

Op iaamxavier, Cocoa is the second highest income earner after oil, it comes from the SW. Educate yourself and quit embarrassing yourself. Smh

Like seriously Op, how can you say Lagos 'is not ready for this?? An already overpopulated city/state with an ever increasing population and transportation challenges, and you say it's 'not ready' and that it's a 'misplaced priority'?? If Lagos isn't ready then you might as well just simply say nowhere in Nigeria is ready for such development. So, according to you and in your infinite 'wisdom', when will Lagos be 'ready' for such infrastructural upgrade

Dem suppose change their name to PDP-AVENGERS

See Gobe.

When will this twitter parrot directly address the problems afflicting Bayelsa his home state for goodness sake??

The author is not General Adebayo Adeyinka as falsely ascribed but an igbo writer. Besides, the thread already exists.

Rossikk:
How come Ibadan could afford to build Cocoa House in 1965, but no other skyscraper till now, 2016?

It's like everyone there just went to sleep after Awo.

Bros, you are talking of Ibadan Cocoa House (27-storey) when even up till today some regions and states still can't boast of even one single 15-storey building, not to talk of 20-storey. No be small thing o.

keally:
. Ignorance is a disease. Do you think Biafrans will lose legitimately acquired properties anywhere in Nigeria in event of breakup? The episode of the past was because the breakup was not successful For your information we shall be the most-feared nation in Africa just like Buhari feared our missile and ran for dear life. You can NEVER intimidate a Biafran. We are Jews and Americans in Africa. You may not understand my last statement

Here we go again with the chest-beating. Upon all your mouth minority Ikwerre and ijaws are still holding on to your 'abandoned properties', and Una still dey lament, yet you still dey beat that empty chest. Smh.

SuperS1Panther:
Where are their properties and companies?

If any, they will be given 90days to uproot it and relocate it back to their gully eroded land.


After the expiration of the 90days, any building or company not relocated will be nationalized.

Simple as ABC.

Lol. Bros, you don vex. Make we show mercy. Their status by then would be no different than a Nigerian in Kenya or a Nigerian in Ghana. The level-headed/peaceful ones amongst them can be given a renewable Yoruba equivalent of a Greencard.

americanigga:
I wish other tribes would emulate the Yoruba people

Yeah. Me too.

Op, you need not worry about that as Yorubas are not that heartless. We didn't convert igbo properties during and after the civil war and even gladly handed them the back rents collected in their absence upon their return, unlike your ikwerre and ijaw neighbors who weren't so charitable up till today.

So you need not worry about losing your investments in a Yoruba nation in the inevitable event of the disintegration of 'One Nigeria', as I assure you that renewable resident permit concessions will be granted to foreign investors in that category, in accordance with world's best practices.

Which kind confusion be dis? What happened to Biafra agitation

1freshdude:
You have comprehension issues. Yoruba or any other tribe need not fear what whoever person says about property ownership, if its your property, show the document slowpoke!

You sound so fvcking naive. Go and tell that to your kinsmen who are still lamenting over their 'abandoned properties' at PH as we speak. I thought I was dealing with a reasonable person, not knowing that you are a slowpoke. I have better things to do with my time abeg.

1freshdude:
I wonder why its so difficult for you to miss simple/glaring points. It has nothing to do about one Nigeria, there are contract and property transfer laws in every society that spells out how to acquire or transfer a property regardless of if you are a Russian or an Ibibio, you get?
So your fear is that people lay claims to owning an area? You are funny and seem to me like a man of little means and knowledge.
If you sell all your property to your neighbors the the property belongs to them. The only way to lay claim to a property is not to sell it.
You want to eat your cake and have it?

You are a hypocrite and I am beginning to actually believe you are an igbo fellow coz they are the only set of folks that espouse such sentiments as you are voicing. You are the one arguing on the basis of fear of losing your properties owing to the assertiveness of Yorubas on their ownership of Lagos. But you need not worry about that as Yorubas are not that heartless. We didn't convert igbo properties during and after the civil war and even gladly handed them the back rents collected in their absence upon their return, unlike your ikwerre and ijaw neighbors who weren't so charitable up till today. All your talk about 'contracts' haven't helped the igbos in their efforts to retrieve their 'abandoned properties' up till today.

So you need not worry about losing your investments in a Yoruba nation in the inevitable event of the disintegration of 'One Nigeria', as I assure you that renewable resident permit concessions will be granted to individuals in your category, in accordance with world's best practices.

1freshdude: This sounds delusional. What do you mean by land grabbing? You mean people do not fulfill the requirements for land and property transfer before owning them? Do you know the no of Yoruba persons that have properties in London and everywhere out side Yoruba land? whats your point again?

You might as well come out and tell us you are a 'One Nigeria' advocate, which i clearly am not, coz it's obvious that you are approaching the issue from that vantage point. But in as much as I respect your right to your personal feelings on the subject matter, I really don't give a flying funk, sorry.

The real crux of my argument is based on the simple FACT that Lagos IS a part of the SW geopolitical zone, which was the point I made in my rebut to the user I quoted, but obviously you have a real issue with that statement of fact. Big deal. Deal with it.

That a Yoruba person owns landed property in London does not change nor negate the fact that London is in the UK now, does it? Or do you hear Yoruba property owners there calling the place a 'nomansland' on that account?? You have a brain for a reason, please make use of it.

1freshdude:
What is with the whole hullabaloo about Lagos, why are other south western state trying so hard to append themselves to Lagos? Are the other south western states lazy and devoid of ideas/innovations that they can not imagine life without allocation? whats the whole noise about please?

That is because the Yorubas are wading off the land-grabbing ambitions of non-Yorubas who are making a habit of separating that piece of Yoruba real estate from the rest of the SW geopolitical zone/region. Yorubas like myself are just simply setting the records straight in that context. We will continue to remind such mischief makers that Lagos is SW and every true Yorubaman will gladly defend the territorial integrity of Lagos with his blood if need be.

HurtgenForest:
I will open a thread soon on what our proposed regionalism should look like.

Stay tuned.

Dude, you are free to harbor whatever fantastic ideas and propositions in that silly mind of yours coz last time i checked it's not a crime to dream. Now how does that change the fact that Lagos is in the SW?

HurtgenForest:
Fixed.

SuperS1Panther is absolutely correct. Abeg which geopolitical zone does Lagos fall under?? Abi where is Lagos situated if not in the same SW?? Or better still, why not tell us the geopolitical zone that better fits that position than the SW, since you are obviously having issues coming to terms with a simple fact??

Hmmnn...

Dp

^^^The usual suspects have showed up.

Op, as at 1991, Ogbomosho's population stood at 650,000 therefore it's probably double that today.

.

@obailala: 26km no be joke. That is more than twice the length of third mainland bridge which according to wiki is 11km long.

Pedropa:
Yea, like he goes about demolish pple's sweat in the late hours of the night in order not to allow them save anything from their stores and impoverish them.



A certain tribe likes leaders who covertly oppress others and champion their own interest in a wicked manner. That is what they call sophistication.

Can't you be reasonable for just once?? When SE governors relocate your traders your likes hail them as performers, but when Ambode does same to bring order and sanity to Oshodi/Lagos you play the victim card. You are fighting a losing battle coz Lagos will continue to progress in spite of your bad belle. You can take that to the bank.

This is remarkable, coming from a Jimi Agbaje supporter like Fasheun. Ambode must truly be the real deal. Mynd44, you don hear?

Hmmnn... Interesting perspective.

The Imo College of Advanced Professional Studies (ICAPS), was established by Governor Rochas

Why wouldn't they rate him third

Centre for International Advanced and Professional Studies (CIAPS) and ICAPS no be the same o, Mr. Anambra.

Your gra gra is too much. Kai!

Ilovemystate:
Their foreign partners you said my friend stop decieving yourself, the rating was concocted by their Yoruba home base (APC members), we are not fools, Anambra, Rivers, Ebonyi are states genuinely developing fast not those sinking their generation in debts to do few projects

Eiya. That's your opinion, but unfortunately it doesn't count for much, certainly not in this case. Didn't superman Obiano borrow N10-billion to complete projects some months ago? You don't have to always sound like a hypocrite all the time Mr.

Word of advice: Why not put together a couple of pro-APGA folks and give Obiano a befitting first place award and then publicize it, since you sound so pained that he got sidelined in this case. I am sure such news will make FrontPage too. Lol.
