Lucyspa:
Yoruba people patronize us because we render a service. We are both doing each other a favour. The only yoruba person in our street that ventured into the business did not last up to 2 years in the business.

I schooled in Enugu for 4yrs and stayed there for extra two years.

apart from Enugu city which part of Enugu is developed?

Lucyspa:
Anambra

Lol, every Tom and dick is from Anambra.
Thought you mention Enugu (where I schooled )

Or IMO where hotels and clubs there.

Lucyspa:
Who wants to associated with that backward place?

Ondo state is more advanced than your state.

Remind me your state.

Topsy04:
hungry youths..... so many instagram celebrities who hails from Ondo state, but never impacts anything for there hometown.... churchchill, yemi Alade, toke makinwa and the likes...

Bimbo oshin
T.B Joshua.

Testy17:
Is olakunle Churchill From ondo State?

yeah.

Lucyspa:
As in eh. No wonder he is useless. He is even from ondo state. I should have known. Their men can be useless ehn.

You're very stupid for this.

Swizbank:
May be you misunderstood. The point was, the Govt could still retain the 500k and still take as much as they want anew. The resources are there. Thats the point.

And what about the agreement? Are you a representative of the Govt?

I'm not representing the government.
Instead, you should say, they should take another 2 - 3 batches.

Instead of retaining batch A and B.

We have over 100m of youths

Whiteangel1234:
Nsogbu adiro but personally I think i'm done with this Ikwerre issue they can go to hell .

I pray Ijaw people wake up in River state and take back power this Ikwerre they form because of small power they are holding in Rivers since 1999

How dare ordinary 4 local Government people insult Igbo Nation as a whole ?

it's an insult

Swizbank:
Yes, I do have a choice - that's exactly what this post represents - the choice . But you decided to antagonize me.

I'm sorry, I don't wish to.
I only vex, when I saw this.

Engagement of a fresh batch must not be prerequisited by the disengagement of the pioneer volunteers.
The current govt I believe promised 3million jobs, so why must 500k be disengaged in order to hire a fresh 400k

and it's because I know that there was an agreement before the applicants applied.

Igbochief001:
Why was the south not United in the 1950s ..can't u say it ..what happened ..are u scared ?

lol, why must I be scared when I know the person that hand over South to North, When I know those that organized the first coup, when I know the person that starts the end of regional government, when I know those that usually votes the North instead of south (Except 1999 even tho, he was a Fulani puppet)

My point remains.

What must be done to unite south lies in 2023.
The investments of both regions in different parties.
Igbo in PDP
Yoruba In Apc.
if the political parties don't field it like this then forget it.

Igbochief001:
Oga shut up ... people like u are the problem out the south ...u know people breaking the south because of greed and selfishness ...

Instead of you to stand by equity and justice u are here talking rubbish

Don't you know why the south is not United ?
Don't u know who is at fault ?
Dont u know what must be done to unite the south ?

Instead of u to call a spade a spade u are here talking rubbish

Except you wanna learn history how south isn't United from 1950, don't go there.

Lastly, What must be done to unite south lies in 2023.
The investments of both regions in different parties.

Igbo in PDP
Yoruba In Apc.

if the political parties don't field it like this then forget it.

Well, you guys caused it.
They're the one that suppose to be begging you and be agitating to be with you.

But you guys are begging them.

Very soon, northerners will begin to head NDDC.

I'm Yoruba.
But sadly, You're right.

Both the OP and the person that wrote it needs serious brain revaluation.

Swizbank:
Have you ever paid house rent since you were born? Just asking...no harm intended

Yes(Before NYSC and during NYSC) , and I'm currently Paying it(Before marriage, God will do wonders)

And Oga, you'll start from Scratch, It was my NYSC money, I use to start Farming (Cocoa) (it was even family land, or should I call it lease land), And we thank God now.
There are so many times one will beg the landlord to accept 6months salary first.
I've even collected Lapo money to pay rent before.

Start from somewherr, cos you ain't the only one who passed through it.

I've been there before, I know it's not easy.
but do you have a choice?

There are many people earning 10K as salary, what do you want them to do?

Kokadomfreedom:
go and tell civil servants and others who are collecting huge amount and will serve for 35 years to resign for other nigerians to take over. You pained because of 30k enemy of progress.

Mad oooo , Me pained because of 30K??

Go and find out how much 1 bag of cocoa generate, then come back to adjust your comment.

Apart from that, let me address your other "Meaningless point"

You said Civil Servants who served for 35yrs.

Ask those Civil Servants, what was the agreement made by Federal government when they were given appointment letter.
isn't to serve them for 35Yrs?

When FG engaged you guys, the agreement was plainly 2Yrs.
I don't know why you guys are crying, probably because you didn't save

When Jonathan was in Government, He did similar scheme (I think Seap or so).

matex97:
FYI, I am not a beneficiary or an applicant of the scheme but like you said cost of living differs based on location. That is why i said 10k can not be sufficient.

Then raise it up 15K.

Or How do corpers survive with 30K?
And what if there is no Npower, won't he survive?

or those living in Lagos, Abuja etc, didn't they survive?

Swizbank:
If you read well, you would have seen where I said, the engagement of the new must not come at the detriment of the old.

We are not fighting brother.

The Govt has made you believe that there is no more, and they cannot afford to pay 30k to 1million Nigerians.

If you see it from the point that the your breakthrough is not dependent on my breakdown, you won't have problem with me.

When you're registering for Batch A and B, What was the agreement made?

Or, you didn't read the terms and conditions that It's Only for 2 Years
That's breech of Agreement in Law.

matex97:
Please kindly explain how one can survive on 10k and save 20k. NPower is a temporary solution to a permanent problem.

Oga, Kindly explain how you can't survive if there is no Npower?

Anyways, I live in Ondo state.
Probably location matters like (Abuja, Lagos, Port Harcourt, Anambra are a bit expensive)

Food Shouldn't cost you up to #6,000 per month (as a single guy)

Transportation Maybe #2,000, you can even find your way sometimes.

Miscellaneous expenses like Buying of Soap, Tooth paste, Etc round it up to 2,000.

How do you survive during your NYSC?

You Nigerians are not serious and you're Lazy.

Batch A collected 30K for 4yrs.
Batch B for 3yrs.

yet, you don't want other Nigerians to benefit

if you're single,
Out of 30K, can't you save 20k?

if you're married, you'll find means to cater for yourself.

what if there isn't Npower?

will you guys die

Swizbank:
I feel no matter what, the Govt should have the means of providing for her citizens.

Yes, the program was billed to expire one day, but considering the status quo via the pandemic, I reason it a fair treatment if the Npower volunteers are shown some love by allowing them thrive in their meager monthly take home.

Engagement of a fresh batch must not be prerequisited by the disengagement of the pioneer volunteers.

The current govt I believe promised 3million jobs, so why must 500k be disengaged in order to hire a fresh 400k?

Does it mean govt doesn't have the means to cater for 900k of her citizens?

They talked about transitioning after disengagement, but I think the reverse should be the case. Disengagement should come after transitioning.

People are suffering!

Your opinion please!

You're just being selfish.

I actually don't understand the picture.

Maybe you should explain using the pics.

Don't the mods check their mentions??

You guys, should look into this

fergie001:
Elections don't hold in Abia.

The will of the people is that....they don't want the Government again but but.....they can't help it

Unless there is a Federal might somewhere, forget it....
It is who rigs the most situation...and the party of the moment is fully fully in charge.

Haaaaa.
Na wa oooo.

Very soon, he and (Orjis family) cups will full.

What happened in Kwara will later happen.

fergie001:
Do they have elections in Abia?
No elections bro....

but I still believe the will of the people.

If abia people have strong will and mind and they're ready to vote them out.

I believe no amount of rigging will save it maybe except through court (as in IMO)

proeast:
Semantics! Is there really any difference? The article was specific in narrowing it down to intelligence while I used the word advanced. There are also other articles that may have used 'advanced' but it still boils down to semantics.

it was your choice of words that's wrong.

anyways, you've said its not a dick measuring exercise.
we should focus on the issue at hand.

proeast:
I don't know why you guys always feel insecure when some spectacular facts about Igbos are highlighted.

Now, check this link https://www.africanevents.com/the-most-brilliant-black-african-race-facts-and-figures-from-the-us-academic-report/

There are several other such links too but like I said, this is not a dick measuring exercise please!

check the report.

https://www.dailytrust.com.ng/news/notes-from-atlanta/no-us-study-ever-said-igbos-are-the-most-brilliant-black-african-race/143684.html

and this was your initial statement

Igbos are known to be capitalists and has often been classified as being among the world's 5 most advanced ethnicities alongside the Chinese, Indians, Jews and Germans.

Factshunter:
God bless the OP.

in abundant Amen

proeast:
The terrible Nigerian system is what makes such mediocre governors to emerge. Most times is not who the people wants that end up emerging as governors. Imo state is a very good example.

I agree that Nigeria has a terrible system and most times is not who the people wants that end up emerging (through rigging).

but I believe, if people doesn't want a particular person, no amount of rigging will save him.
e.g.
Oyo state governors( Only ajimobi was able to secure 2nd term), upon his achievements, his candidate was voted out and he was denied of his senate ambition.

Ondo State
mimiko is currently the best governor Ondo had, but some utterances made people not to vote for his candidate.

Osun state
it was rigging that save Osun election, Aregbesola is the best governor of Osun state, but some of his unfavorable policies made people not to vote for him his candidate

kwara state
strong will and slow progress plus family hereditary of kwara state by Sarakis family make people to vote them out.

Ekiti
Fayemi, Fayose, Segun Oni, all used one term one after the other in different party.

rigging didn't save them either.
as you can see, if the people are willing to vote the governor out, no rigging will save it except through court (case of IMO governor)

proeast:
Abia is ever scarcely in the news for the wrong reasons. However, if you check the news you will see that most is due to state government failure.

Why don't you vote them out??
why allowing them 2nd tenure?

all this you're doing is, "all talk, no action".

Remimadrid1:
Op, show me the list were the Igbo's were classified as one of the top five ethnic group like you mentioned.

I thought I was the only one that saw it.

well, it's not new.
it's like, they like studying statistics in that region.
