Give it an Igbo man in Lagos, you go see tribal sentiments everywhere. Why do you guys act like that?

It's just animalistic
Lol. You must have been sleeping when Tinubu was busy appointing ibos into his government. Political paid appointments ooo and not these rubbish honorary stuff you are bragging about.

Even Peter Obi's daughter was employed into the Lagos civil service whereas in Anambra, they won't even hire non-indigenes into their civil service.

You can see how the 3 major tribes in the country are represented on the list and even some of the other names are not indigenes of Abia state but we are not foaming and crying foul.

In Abia, we are mature to care about your state of origin nowadays as long as you can give us result. You don't see Abians go about and crying more than the bereaved that a yoruba or Hausa man should not make the list.

In Abia state, we are very accommodating and irrespective of your origin, we will deal with you accordingly.

Tribal bigotry is for uncivilized and unsophisticated humans.
Honorary appointments.

The battle is still going to be between Tinubu and Atiku. If Tinubu performs well, he still has over 3 years, then Atiku would be toast.

Jimi Agbaje is like Ademulegun and Banjo that allowed himself to be used by the people east of the Niger river. He played a dirty game and got tagged rightfully. But you see that Gbarebo, that boy na Ibo boy. He can go to Anambra and contest. You have no right to impose 1/4 of what you can't take in your region on others.

How did I downgraded Lagos achievements when everything investors needed to grow and invest are concentrated in Lagos, wasn't it the leverage time was talking about, if not where is Oshogbo, Ekiti, Ilorin etc??
Without good leadership, Lagos figures would have been mediocre. Tinubu is the undisputed brainbox of the surge in foreign investment in Lagos (and Nigeria at large) via his modern Free Trade Zones initiatives when he was governor.

Tinubu laid the foundation for the establishment of the leading free zones in the country that these has attracted over 20 billion US dollars to the National Economy and generated 170,000 direct and indirect employments. The establishment of the Eko Atlantic and the four quadrants of Lekki Free Zone which harboured Dangote Refinery, Lagos Free Zone, Lagos Free Port, Alaro City Free Zone, Lekki Free Zone and over 100 other enterprises including the just concluded Deep-Sea Port operating in the enclaves as Tinubu’s exclusive initiatives.

Those investments will eventually bring jobs with them. Both short term and long term. It's not going to happen like a light switch.

Lagos was able to make it wether without stress because of its status and where the foreigner will flyin first, that's how Nigeria system make Lagos to be ahead of others to suffer.

PoliticsRe: Allow The Igbos Have Their Country; Biafra ~ Tukur Danmuazu by Slytiger:
Basically, you are advocating for the return to regional government that Chukwuma Nzeogwu messed up via a coup and Umunnakwe Aguiyi-Ironsi helped destroyed via his unification decree. Ben Nwabueze also helped Ironsi to draft the decree.

Let's not also forget that Nnamdi Azikiwe ensured that it was a treasonable offence to try to secede.

Further read:
On assumption of power, General Aguiyi-Ironsi enacted some decrees in Nigeria.

None is more controversial than Decree No 34 of 1966. It was promulgated on May 24, 1966 by then Head of State, Major General Johnson Thomas Umunnakwe Aguiyi-Ironsi. It was called Unification Decree.

It was the decree that started the death of regionalism – an issue which is still generating controversy till now.

At the early stage of his tenure, he appointed a three-man advisory team made up of Chief Francis Nwokedi, a Permanent Secretary, Dr. Pius Charles Nwabafor Okigbo (1924-2000) and Colonel Patrick Anwunah, who later became Chairman and Head of the Orientation Committee at that time.

He replaced the then Attorney-General and Minister of Justice, Dr. Taslim Olawale Elias (1914-1991) with Chief Gabriel Chike Michael Onyiuke (SAN), former Director, Public Prosecution, Eastern Nigeria (1960-1965) from Nimo in the present Anambra state.

In a speech to the nation on January 28 1966, he denounced the evils of the Abubakar Tafawa Balewa regime and outlined necessary reforms. ”All Nigerians”, he declared,” want an end to regionalism.. The Federal Military Government will preserve Nigeria as one strong nation.”

Immediately after the speech two Governors kicked against the proposal. They were, Major General David Akpode Ejoor (83) from Ovu in the present Delta State, then serving as the Military Governor of the Mid-Western region and Major General Hassan Usman Katsina(1933-1995), who was then serving as Governor of the Northern region.

Lt. Col. Chukwuemeka Odumegwu-Ojukwu (1933-2011), Military Governor of Eastern Region welcomed the decree while Lt. Col. Francis Adekunle Fajuyi (1926-1966), Military Governor of Western Region never commented on the promulgation of the decree.

Lt-Col Ejoor was reported as saying that the ’National Government’ set up by the army was the prelude to ‘the reintroduction of a UNITARY FORM OF GOVERNMENT’ and insisted that it would create future PROBLEMS.

Shortly afterwards, the Supreme Military Council announced that a senior government official, Mr. Nwokedi, had been asked to consider and to report to the Supreme Military Council on the establishment of ‘an administrative machinery for a united Nigeria’ and the ‘unification of the Public Services and Judicial Services.’

In his own speech on February 19 at the Kaduna Airport, the Governor of Northern region, Lt-Col. Hassan Katsina said he was not aware as a member of the then Supreme Military Council of the modalities for the proposed National Government. ”I am afraid the egg is about to be broken”.

On February 21 1966, General Aguiyi-Ironsi again addressed the nation on the issue. He said: “On the question of the political future of the country, the experiences and mistakes of the previous governments in the Federation have clearly indicated that far-reaching constitutional reforms are badly needed for peaceful and orderly progress towards the realization of our objectives. I have already touched on some of the major issues involved in recent broadcast to the nation. It has become apparent to all Nigerians that rigid adherence to ‘REGIONALISM’, was the bane of the last regime and one of the main factors which contributed to its downfall.

As a follow-up on May 25, General Aguiyi-Ironsi promulgated the Constitution (Suspension and Modification)(No. 5) Decree 1966. Decree No. 34 (the ‘Unification Decree’).

After the promulgation, the country was thrown into turmoil which led to demonstration particularly in many parts of Northern Nigeria at that time. On his return to Kaduna on May 27, Col. Hassan Katsina was besieged with demands for an explanation. It was feared that in a unified service, Northerners would be at a disadvantage. It was no consolation that the Decree provided for the delegation of appointments and promotions, except the most senior, to Provincial Civil Service Commissions.
