You are delusional. tbh

So what about the Hausas and Fulani?

And you obviously know very little about human history.

their ancestors move up from ethiopia to sudan b4 moving west to chad and north nigeria....they are not the same with us igbo and yoruba

Ok tell me about human history pls

EeyanMayweather:
Are you saying flat..headed osu belong to the bush

In your attempt to be foolish, you scored an own goal

read ur post and know if u can understand it

So u guys are partly igbo
It all makes sense now.
The 1st humanoids came from ethiopia. They migrated west to west africa and 1st settled in igboland b4 moving to yorubaland and other parts of west africa

Yoruba tribe is a sub group of the great igbo ethnic group

MelesZenawi:
And Ekweremmadu spent 8 years as DSP and going to 20 years in Senate.


The only achievements he acquired was sang by Enugu People


Neezia na obu member
Neezia Nnukwu member....


Enugu remains in God's hands.

silly talk. Ekweremadu is minister of works or president. Wat concerns his dsp post with building fg road

oyatz:
What's the rationale and economic sense for this?

How many Nigerians can afford even the made-in-Nigeria cars at #3 million?

Instead,we can start by banning tokunboh cars older than 5years.
Increase local production of automobiles over a 5-10 year period.

then start giving car loans na. How do u think countries develope?
Let me paint a scenerio for u so u knw hw shallow u sounded.

Cement used to be imported in nigeria and used to be very costly until obj and dangote changed the game. Even ibeto was importing cement...but now he makes his own. The cement industry now employs millions of nigerians and is a major nigerian export.

On the auto industry...if nigeria was not biased and insincere, the same policy will gv the same results. Think of a situation were u cant import used cars into nigeria anymore. Banks will gv good car loans to working class ppl...innosson will employ more nigerians and then big names like coscharis, PAN, kia and volkwagen will enter the industry too..milliins of nigerians would be employed and price of new cars crashed....

Common sense...but nigeria lack it.

The same thing can be done in all our industries too...but that is story for another day sha

Add me on whatsApp 07036306635. I need to tell you something.

lol...not gonna happen....tell me here

atorioke:
When was Oil River Protectorate renamed Eastern region? I still want you to clear my doubt. I'm learning.

it was merged with the west in 1900 to form the protectorate of south nigeria and merged with lagos in 1906 to form the colony and protectorate of south nigeria and lagos. They were all merged with north in 1914 to form nigeria.
Later in 1939, south nigeria was divided to form east and west
And east nigeria was the worlds largest producer of palm oil b4 indonesia permanently overtook us in the 50s

Wat else do u need?

mercyville:
[s]lol

Your region was even behind the Northern region then.

SW was the best region not only in Nigeria but Africa until Aguiyi Ironsi killed it with hate and jealousy that his descendants still carry about till now..

Hear the truth..[/s]

mercyville:
[s]Bring the link because you lie a lot.
Yorubas had skyscraper,first tv in Africa,free health care etc.

What did you do with yours? [/s]

u need to stop quoting me with this ur unintelligent rants. U obviously didnt come to argue...u came to troll and i have had enough of it. U continue to spam this thread with the same unintelligent screenshot and i will have to report u for violating rule 18

atorioke:
please, read my comment. I didn't object to your claim that region wasn't the best region. I objected to number 3.

so have i cleared ur doubt yet?

atorioke:
Now to this, give me the geographical definition of the Oil River Protectorate?

the eastern region. That region which the igbos governed from 1953 to1967....that region which was nigeria's best region....the one which became biafra from 1967 to 1970. See it here...

Are u ok nw?

oyatz:
Bros stop this childish whining.

It's unnecessary to be comparing Innoson with Dangote.

Importation of cement was banned in favour of local production by Ibeto, Dangote, BUA and West African Larfarge(Ewekoro), so what do you mean by Dangote's Monopoly?

let them ban importation of cars too

atorioke:
Eastern region was able to attain that because Bayelsa, Rivers, Akwa Ibom and Cross Rivers were part of it. Now that they are not part of South East, what can you say?

Using past geographical achievements to brag.

oh wait...u have changed tune sharp sharp....lol...from doubting that we were not the best region to now saying we were the best because of niger delta...let me ask u...was delta and edo not part of western region? Wat did u achieve then

atorioke:
largest exporter of palm oil in the world then? where did you get your facts from and what is your evidence to back your claim?

Nigeria Edit
As of 2011, Nigeria was the third-largest producer, with approximately 2.3 million hectares (5.7×106 acres) under cultivation. Until 1934, Nigeria had been the world's largest producer. Both small- and large-scale producers participated in the industry.

Pls tell me...btw the1st three regions, which region was producing palm oil? West had cocoa, north had groundnut and east had palm oil...to the extent the east was called oil rivers protectorate

Any issue with the car? Ac working?

Amumaigwe:
Whose bidding is Starboy doing now and what are his impact as a savvy Western economist?

they will soon tell u he is a lawyer not an economist

funmijoyb:
Obasanjo was hauas's choice.
If not yoruba it must be a northerner nobody else. Yoruba people will be happy if northern won

igbo will be happy too if north wins

NGpatriot:
Typical ignorant and illiterate rants. Being rich is not about how much you have in your bank accounts or the amount of money you have in your pocket.

Why are Nigerian youths, especially ipobs so mentally messed up and backward?

smh.

Of course not...being rich is about how many balls of amala and ewedu u eat daily.
It also has to do with how many owambe done daily within a state.

Afonja brain should be studied spiritually for genetic delusion

Ritchiee:
Everybody knows that you are not economically savvy and the Eastern Region was even trailing the Northern Region.

The SW led by Awolowo did not borrow a kobo to prosecute the civil war when he was the finance `minister´.....That is savvy.

First skyscraper in sub saharan Africa was built by the Yorubas.

Free health care.

Best roads.

Best infrastructures.

Industrial areas.

First newspaper.

Richest region...that they have to lend Nigeria money,twice.

Can´t say it better than this Hausa Fulani man.....

Igboland...SE was very far behind...

You are a liar and a big fraud my friend
The eastern region as at 1964 had the following:
1. Most valuable coal mines in Africa (Enugu)
2. Most Valuable oil wells in Sub Sahara Africa (oloibiri Rivers)
3. The world's largest producer of palm products
4. 2nd largest sea port in Nigeria (after lagos)

Mr west nigeria tell me what exactly the west had then to make them an economic power house. Cocoa? Lol. U guys will hate the internet las las because we will now burst ur lies.
If Awolowo was so confident, he could have declared u guys independent too when we left.

Ritchiee:
Thanks bro.You really prolly tried but how would we know that Igbos can turn things around for the better when they have not done that for their region?

Moreover,when every region paddled their own canoes during regional system,the Igbos did not do well.Most of them ran to Ibadan,the capital of Yorubaland then survive.

I really respect the Igbos for their positive potentials but I cannot lay my hands on any business they have built that had lasted like the Tribune,Punch,Iwe alaroye,alabukun,Odua group etc of the Yorubas.

Maybe I am mistaking one thing for the other but all what you have written do not signify that they will successfully take us out of this economic woes because they do not have an antecedent of being economically savvy.Thanks.

N.Bl:
I used Yorubaland because they were growing in leaps and bounds until y`all tied them down to go at your own pace....yes,Ironsi did.

lol...we do u guys lie boldly? During the regional era the east was Africa's fastest growing economy.

We were the largest exporter of palm products in the world.

In industry, the coal mines of Enugu managed by the Nigerian Coal Corporation and Nigersteel's rolling mill which used steel scraps to produce mild steel bars were one of the few coal mines and steel plants in operation in West Africa in 1963. During the NCNC led government, a cement factory was established at Nkalagu, Nigerian Breweries chose a stout factory at Aba, a Tobacco and glass making plant was located at Port Harcourt. Oil mining in the region started by Shell D' Archy in 1937 did not yield commercial quantities until 1957. But by 1965, oil was a promising source of income.
In commerce, the port in ph was the 2nd largest import and export port in Nigeria after Apapa. Mind u, lagos was not western region then.

We did best than any other region...google eastern region bro

Elemosho478:
Lol Keep deceiving yourself

If Yoruba break away today, we would build the greatest nation

so it means the yorubas dont want to build the greatest nation yet....cos its obvious u guys are the main champions of one nigeria even more than the north

Lol...the idea that 200 hundred million random negroes with nothing in common other than skin color will be able to successfuly run a country is a british joke.

I'm sure this was how they were laughing after granting us independence.

Nigeria can only work 2 ways
1. Through a break up
2. Through a process of assimilation where one ethnic group assimiliate others

Elemosho478:
Yoruba can unite and push for it, but there are several factors to consider before we push for it


We will remove Benin, Warri, Sapele and some other place away from that map

what factors?

Elemosho478:
Shove your support up your ass

Your opinion doesn't count

why

adoboy04:
We don't need to include Benin, warri, and Lokoja except they want to join us .I support this 100%

no u have include them oh...we dont want them in biafra

I support this with all my heart. The yorubas should push to leave this shithole...Nigeria dont deserve the great yorubas.
Good to see u are taking benin and warri too. Thats nice.
Even illorin? Wow this is so good. I support it 100%

LegendHero:
Bro in as much as I want some form of peace in the south, you have to face the fact here. The average easterner feel some sort of resentment towards the SW, that is evident in everything they always project. Go on Facebook, Twitter, Instagram, go anywhere you will feel the resentment.

Where did all this hatred emanate from? Because of 2011 elections that saw Buhari became president? Do you know how much Yorubas voted for Jonathan in 2011 and 2015? Did Nigeria started in 2015?

Why the bleep will the Igbo keep accusing Yorubas of betraying the south when in the actual fact there is no one to betray? What about Azikwe betrayal? What about betrayal of Awolowo by voting Shagari? The betrayal of MKO by Igbos?

Have you ever seen the Yorubas point fingers and call the Igbos betrayal for voting who they wish they wanted. But since 2015 election that saw Buhari winning SW with a paltry 56% edge made the SE’ners wild with speech of how Yorubas betrayed the south. Which south loyalty exists in the first place if I may ask.

What you’re tryna do is like dipping a needle in an ocean, to bring the Yorubas and Igbos together in terms of politics should be termed one of the most difficult task in the world. Since 1960, we’ve had different ideologies and voted differently so why the bleep do people keep saying southern unity or so.

If you check Nigeria pattern, the Igbos have aligned most with the northerners while the Yoruba spent a lot of years in the opposition coz Awo died not fulfilling the dream of putting the Yorubas in the limelight.

It’s just absurd to keep claiming southern unity with you guys, which unity? Whose loyalty? Why should southwest swear allegiance to the SE ? Why not the other way round?do you even know what happened to the SW during Jonathan Government? How we were marginalized? How we weren’t part of the first four in Nigeria.

op...this is what u get trying to please the yorubas. See how this one has rebuffed ur good intentions..
Op u are delusional to think that the yorubas see themselves as south. South is only SE and SS. The yorubas see themselves as west and they are majority moslems. If an igboman somehow became president in 1999, u will be sure the yorubas would have worked against him in 2003. The showed it to gej and are willing to do it over and over again.
Best is to leave them to their selves whenever they are fighting with the north.
Our elites in the better south never comments or interferes in west's politics because they know the 2 faced ppl they are

asfrank:
Most of you don't even know or just want to criticize at each moment. A CoS is even more powerful than the VP in my regard, anywhere in the world. Because it's Buhari you guys will not see reason.

who was chief of staff under jonathan?

vanunu:
To show that the Nigerian state hate Igbos, no Igbo man has held the post of minister of works since 1970.

Jim Nwaobodo?

comradewanle:
Haha.......

we knw them
