Osedagal:

Osedagal:

You're even benin and you made me to accuse the east.

Anyways your 5lgs is useless anyways.

Osedagal:
And you think those minions get una back. I pity una. When time go reach after they have settled with BUBU una go be like spare tire. You all should learn from history and not mistakes

Oga your protest is useless.

From 1950 - date.. Majority of protest that change somethings in government / Nigeria came from SW

Go and read history

Uchasa:
Ernest Shonekan(Interim Government 1998)
Olusegun Obasanjo (1999-2007)

And for your information, I have been to all the states in the West.
I lived in Festac Town,Ikeja and Victoria Island for some time while in Lagos.
I have been to Idiroko,Agbara,Abeokuta and Ijebu Ode in Ogun.
I have gone to Bodija and Ogbomoso in Oyo during holiday to visit my coursemate.
I have gone to Okitipupa,Akure,Arogbo in Oyo.
I have been to Omu-Aran in Kwara.
I have been to Ile-Ife and Oshogbo in Osun State.
I have practically toured Yorubaland,and I can tell you that if only our seaports can be opened, you guys would not smell our backs.

Lol, Okay I pray it will be utilized to the fullest.
So that everyone can answer to their papa name.
BTW, it's Ondo not Oyo

Uchasa:
All you said we're wrong!!!
Ogun isn't the most industrialized state in Nigeria,Lagos is!
Rivers is more industrialized than Ogun!!
The sea ports in our region were closed so as to deny us of developing our lands,same thing they are doing to our oil.
Nobody asked for fee during construction of 2nd Niger Bridge, it has always being a hallucination.

You've never been to ogun state Abeq
You only know Lagos Not ogun.

You said they deny you of seaports.
Since 1960 point out any Yoruba that was in government. And include the year.

And for 2nd Niger Bridge

STENON:
How do you define achievement with regards to your state Governor?

Any social or infrastructural development? Any economical progress or academic development?

Go through this.

Uchasa:
South South and South East has Cities like Port Harcourt,Calabar,Uyo,Owerri,Onitsha,Asaba,Enugu,e.t.c that are better than most South West cities(apart from Lagos), but the fact is that most people here have this thought that Lagos is a money making arena and therefore leave here for Lagos .

Lol, But Lagos is not all SW.
Even get Ogun and Ibadan got overflow from Lagos.
Why do you think Ogun is the most industrialised state in Nigeria?

Just create a business free environment and see what will happen.

There were ports in Rivers and Delta before it was stopped at that time.
Do you know what make then stop?
It is because of the exhortation by the people, pirates, Cultism etc.

If you're conversant in 2nd Niger Bridge saga, you'll notice that indigenes of some villages in Anambra demand for compensation or whatever and they had to pause the bridge for a while.
Which can never happen in the west.

And BTW, it's not that we've not been to the east, stop portraying it like a white clothes.

TsaTrinity:
Very correct. Until people realise Politics is different from governance, we will still be stocked with 'vote for my party'

You're correct.
Aketi is the 2nd Ondo governor to get re elected.
Mimiko was the first (meanwhile he was in LP).

The other two ondo governors (AD, PDP) didn't got 2nd term.

In short, achievements does it not party actually.

STENON:
I never mentioned Party, The personality is attached to the named Person I mentioned earlier.

Mimiko achievements got him re elected when he was in LP.

Aketi achievements got him re elected.

The other two governors (AD and PDP) didn't got re elected.

Even after mimiko tenure, he candidate didn't got re elected.
So achievements got Aketi re elected.

STENON:
Same way you will re-elect Buhari as your next President ... Goodluck to you thou

I actually voted for GoodLuck.

Personality is different from Party.
Ondo has tasted 4 different political parties since 1999

Uchasa:
If you're a good student of Economics, you would know what's happening to us in the Lower Niger!
It's called Rural- Urban Migration, the young able bodied men have left the Lower Niger in search for greener pastures to the West and abroad, so you can't expect their IGR to be more.
Unlike the West that hardly live in another part of the country, in Port Harcourt, you hardly see Yorubas, so when able bodied young SS and SE people move to the West, and come together with the West, the IGR of the West must be more!
The day all of them would decide to return back, I can bet you that the West wouldn't smell our backs, let FG complete the construction of Ibom Deep Sea Port, Onne Seaport and other Sea Ports in our region, and you would hardly see any of us in your lands.

That solves it, I'm glad you mentioned it.


You said rulral to urban migration. And for greener pastures.

Good then why are you accusing us to leave our region (greener pastures, urban) to rurals

Rawhumper:
Yes am not also fan of those wicked men you
called especially Abia Gov and didnt mention
Rochas of Imo of APC well you comparing APC
to PDP, i understand.

El-Rufai is tribalistic and religious bigot, he cant be trusted.

His family shamelessly engaged in some tribalistic activities sometime back and he couldnt do anything.

I cant doubt you blindly because am not in that state to judge for myself, i dont engage in what i dont know, claiming i know it all thats why most times my analysis doesnt fail, be it Political, Religious or domestic....

Performance is different from being a bigot.
I'm also not a fan of him, but he's a bigot yet he performed.

What about those that ain't a bigot yet didn't performed?

STENON:
They must vote for him o , @ least he bought Slippers for all of them

Whatever.

STENON:
For those that voted for Akeredolu to be your next Governor... Now your suffering continues

If abia governor can be re elected
Kogi governor can be re elected
Edo governor can be re elected.
Benue governor can be re elected
Why shouldn't Aketi be re elected.?

Uchasa:
That's the fact!!
Take it or leave it!!
The IGR in Lagos is mostly from SS and SE dominated markets.

What about the IgR of SE?

At Least 99% of those leaving in SE are Igbos.
Why can't it matched up to Lagos?

5 SE states = 30billion
Ogun = 30 billion
Kano + Kaduna = 30billion.

Uchasa:
This is what I was waiting for!!

How does IGR determine the development of a state when the IGR is being devoured by godfather's?. Also 50% of SW IGR is contributed by the people of SS and SE. During my stay in Lagos, most influential parts of the state were dominated by the people of SE and SS. Popular markets like Idumota,Trade Fair,Alaba,Computer Village,International,Aspanda,e.t.c where majority of Lagos IGR is generated are dominated by people of SS and SE. If only Nnamdi Azikiwe had allowed the citing of Capital in Calabar and not Lagos, y'all would have been in our lands, because if not that Lagos was made the capital, the SW would have been dead.

Also for your info, the SS and SE has more industrial concentration and mineral resources than the West,hence the big GDP we get, if you remove Lagos GDP from the West, SS and SE has more GDP than the West!

Back to politics, the type of godfatherism happening in the West can happen in the SS or SE. We can't allow it happen, because we can't be controlled by a man!

If Majority of SW IGR is controlled by SE and SS.
What about the igR of SE? At least nah only Igbos full there.
Your brain is leaking sir.

Rawhumper:
Please remove El Rufai that shameless man that doesnt know how to train and control his children, that one is a big minus and are the ones to target during revolution.

Yes Zulum is the people's man, ready to lay down his life for the people. We can see, he who tries to save his life will lose it but he who wants to lose it for a just cause, will find it.

This is true, that was why more lives were
killed during the counter coup in 1967 because
many Igbos said it doesnt concern them and
thus remained in the Military and various areas
but were massacred....i said this to show
Nigerians the affairs of the State affects you
whether you like it or not.

I can confidently tell you that El rufai performed better than Abia governor. Better than Enugu governor.

TheWalkingMind:
State one gubernatorial election where Godfatherism won the election in Ondo State

Don't waste your time on him, he's not a Westerner

dukeprince50:
Rotimi Akerodolu
umar Ganduje
Mohammed bello and
Babajide Sanwo Olu.

They did a little thing to help in their states. though they still have their bad sides

Even umara zulum is trying in his state if not for BH activities

Apart from Akwaibom governor and Ebonyi governor.
All other PDP governors are not performing.

otokx:
Rivers, "educated", chai

The guy is dumb

Uchasa:
Tinubu is the godfather of all state in the West apart from Oyo.

Lol, I can't even argue with you.
You're not from SW talkless of Ondo

Rawhumper:
Name only 4 APC Govs.that did well in their States.

Note that i support you to an extent but you must know that most times when the Parents are bad, the children tend to be replica of their parents.

Aketi
Zulum
Ganduje
El rufai.

Uchasa:
I pity people like you!!

For your information, I have been to Akure,Okitipupa and Arogbo a lot of times.

Aside that, there is no state in the West that doesn't have godfathers apart from Oyo state.

Can you tell me the godfather in Ondo state?

Uchasa:
Ondo and Ekiti the most educated in Nigeria

Some of you never cease to amaze me!!

I hope you know what you mean by educated? Producing the most lawyers doesn't make them the most educated in the West talkless of the entire Nigeria.

When it comes to most educated states in Nigeria, I'll go for Delta, Rivers ,Abia,Imo before Ondo and Ekiti.

Lol, but I no see Edo in your list.

obonujoker:
Must a Yoruba always support APC?

Of course not
For example in this election, I voted for Agboola because I don't like Aketi.

But there are some behaviours or statements that will make someone looks suspicious if he's Yoruba or not.

I know few of Yorubas PDP and apc here nah.
