Igbo man was first president of Nigeria.
First Major General and COAS
First military head of state.
First senate president .
That time your people were killing each other in Ibadan.
Respect your superiors.

But same Fashola has praised Tinubu in different fora that he's responsible for his success, laying the good foundation. You can't cherry pick. Stay one lane!

Penguin2:
Don’t underestimate the power of fools in large numbers.

The above is a classic maxim that sounds like a cliché but it’s ever potent, and will remain potent forever.

The reason a character like Reno Omokri blocks people with the intellectual and rational capacity to question the trashes he consistently posts on X, is so he would be left with large flock of brainless followers who would swallow every bunkum he throws at them as true.

In keeping with the above, yesterday, he claimed that Dangote controls 21% of Lagos economy but yet he’s so humble but Igbos will always claim they built Lagos and are pompous.

I was not surprised to go through the comment section to see intellectual deficient minions praising what he wrote without questioning his submission to ascertain the truth value of that assertion.

Well, that’s what I’m here to do.

Let’s question what Reno Omokri said about Dangote controlling 21% of Lagos economy.

And the first question is, does Dangote control 21% of Lagos economy?

What drives the economy of a state or country? Is it large corporations or MSMEs?

Lagos is a city with a population of nearly 22million people. What percentage of this population does Dangote employ?

How much does Dangote pay in taxes to Lagos Government, and how much does Lagos Govt generate from markets like Alaba, ASPAMDA, Computer Village, etc?

If Dangote controls 21% of Lagos economy, what percentage of California’s economy does Apple and Google control since the two companies are both headquartered in California and they are both more valuable than Dangote by far?

What percentage of Texas’ economy does Tesla control since Tesla is headquartered in Texas and is equally more valuable than Dangote by far?

So, you see, a lot of foolishness sound like wisdom/knowledge to an unthinking mind but don’t let it deceive you.

What Reno Omokri said is absolute foolishness, falsehood and outright distortion of facts.

Lagos is not Lagos because of Dangote company or because of the large corporations headquartered therein.

If there’s any group that forms the engine room of Lagos economy, it’s the Medium, Micro and Small Scale Businesses. This category employs the highest number of Lagosians, and this category generates the most money for Lagos.

Large corporations do not build economies.

Infrastructure, as much as it adds to ease of doing business, does not build economy like some people claimed under Buhari.

So, next time, before you celebrate any trash from Reno Omokri, subject it through logical and rational dissection to know if the statement is truly reasonable.

Penguin is a bird of reason.

town crier ,last I checked, a certain region gave 100% vote to a particular fraud they once cursed and tagged the monumental failure 😹..

Bendeco2020:
Stop involving benin. We don't have issue with them although one of their son and amaka bleeped up.

You think the Igbos that will treat your fuckup are the ones on social media? Igbos bad pass fulani o

Forget all these online fight. North knows why they stopped attacking Igbos on any slight mis understanding
Na why ojukwu dress in his wife dress to flee!!!!

If Igbos wahala start, they won't just flog you in the market. Agbero wey dey East no dey shout, they will born you alive.

If you think say lagos bad, just try stay for Onitsha. No be this one wey five hausa boys go terrorise a whole street for lagos. Una so called area boys wey hausa dey kill for their land steady.

In Onitsha, only three teenage boys will go hausa area and collect illegal fee and they comply to avoid problem even when they have been told to stop paying to touts

Bobloco:
Obi defeated Tinubu, the so-called Lagos blueprint builder in Lagos. Beating him blue-black like a common criminal that he is

numericalguy:
E be like say your brain Dey leak.

Tinubu booted out GEJ from presidency when Tinubu was a private citizen. How on earth do you expect GEJ to win Tinubu who is now the president.

Dreal1247:
Can you please present an instance of what you have just posted. Obi's leniency is the reason why we are having the present failed Government. If he allowed the Nigerian youths who massively voted him as the President to act at the right time, the imposition of Tinubu on Nigerians by the INEC and the court would not have materialsed. People like you appear to have been employed to keep attacking Mr Obi. Focus your energy on better things.

Ttalk:
The progress of Lagos State has been a long journey, if your state governor has been redundant and you are now attracted to the development of Lagos State to claim it belongs to all then you are on a long thing.

What you'll fail to know is that we will colonised you, compel to to speak our language, change your culture, and reduce it to inferiority, you will abandon Isiala for gbegiri and ewedu, and you will get possessed that you won't be able to travel home for the festival.

But note that your desd won't be bury in our elementary, we would ensure your place is turned to burial ground for those who spend their lives in Lagos

Before you know what hits you, you are already an adopted son of Lagos.

The choice is yours, that is what we wanted, and will judiciously execute it as a Lagoisian from generation to generation. We don't shout we use our brain
