Tell us what Vote SW brought in 2023.The record are thr.Your vote did produce SW president. It was north vote.We are educated enough to read numbers

Ttalk:
know Tinubu can't lose in 2027 but if he lose, just know that the SW will support SS when presidency return to the South.

Afterall Obj ruled and Tinubu is ruling and SW doesn't need SE to become president but SE can never become president without the support of the SW.

Go and ask you elders about this bitter truth

seunmsg:
Absolute rubbish. Again, this is bad for the system. It kills moral and leads to unfair stagnation of staff. Every appointed public servant should leave at the age of 60 so that others can move up. If those ahead of Adewale did not retire, how would he have gotten to the position of CGC? Now that he’s there, he has behind a sit tight officer and denying others the opportunity to advance their career. This is totally unacceptable.

jmoore:
Tinubu is not Nigeria.

Obi is talking against the incompetency of Tinubu.

Learn to know the difference.

It is not Ikpokia. It is Ipokia. This subtle ibonization of Yoruba spaces should stop. There is nothing like "IKP" in Yoruba diction. It's the same way they started calling pomo kpomo. This is madness.

BlakKluKluxKlan:
You are right.
Obi's major priority is the removal of the state of origin clause in the constitution and replace it with state of residence.
It formed part of his agreement with Atiku Abubakar in 2019 so Atiku also shares the evil mindset with Ibos

CaptainJune:
APC bots, come and defend your masters who pardon murderers, train them in school, give them gift cash, call them repentant terrorists and send them back to kill more soldiers and civilians.

Slytiger:
Hon James Faleke disassociate himself from the indigenous bill just as the Honourable Blessing Amadi from Rivers State had done earlier today.

Omo Yoruba atata, Ekun oko Obidient! I welcome you specially on behalf of all Omoluabis that have been keeping things down on this forum.

RollinTNDA:
ESN walked so that AMOTEKUN could fly
ESN started it and others followed

I remember when ESN first started
They were heavily ridiculed and critizied
Now every state is following their model.

Akeredolu wife is from imo state
You can see how she inspired Akeredolu to create Amotekun for Yorubas the same way igbos created ESN

Betty Akeredolu low-key influenced a lot of Akeredolu decision in govt.

Igbos are trend setters
Tho they lack the cohesion and are easily targeted with Federal might.
They are truly 4 steps ahead into the future

ESN might have been politically destroyed but there imprint on AMOTEKUN will ever live long. God bless AMOTEKUN!!!
ESN has been in existence since 2020
Operating as local vigilantes without support
They weren't Official like Amotekun that got full state support and funding.

That is why I said Igbos have the Fore sight
But lack the unity and cohesion to carry it

They decided to make it Official late Dec 2022
Doesn't mean they didn't exist before then
They existed but came out officially Dec 2022
They have been in operation way back to 2020

It is clear that SDP is an extension of APC....thank God the coalition did not use SDP.

What would be the potential economic, social, and political implications if the Igbo people across Nigeria and the diaspora decided to boycott all products and services of companies headquartered in Lagos this is including schools, churches, FMCGs, fintechs, and other institutions as a form of protest against perceived bigotry and actions like the renaming of streets? How might such a boycott unfold, and what are the possible consequences for both sides?


A mass Igbo boycott of Lagos-headquartered companies would be a seismic move with far-reaching economic, social, and political consequences. Here's a breakdown of how such a boycott could play out:

Economic Implications
For Lagos-based Companies:

Revenue Disruption: Igbo consumers form a major part of Nigeria’s consumer economy, particularly in the southeast and south-south regions. FMCG companies (e.g., Nestlé, Unilever), fintechs (e.g., Paystack, Flutterwave), and telecoms would likely experience significant revenue shortfalls.

Supply Chain Strain: Many Igbos dominate distribution and retail logistics. A disruption in these networks could paralyze product movement in the east and beyond.

Brand Damage: Accusations of enabling or being complicit in ethnic bias could hurt long-term brand equity, especially in an increasingly woke, social media-driven landscape.

For the Igbo Community:

Short-term Inconvenience: Alternatives to dominant Lagos-based companies may be limited, especially in fintech, telecom, and education sectors.

Shift Toward Indigenous Innovation: Over time, this boycott could accelerate the growth of Igbo-owned brands, startups, and services, creating a parallel economic ecosystem.

Social & Cultural Impact
Deepened Ethnic Divides: This would escalate already-tense ethnic sentiments and could lead to retaliatory actions in Lagos and other parts of Nigeria.

Cultural Awakening: The movement may also awaken a sense of cultural pride and push for self-reliance, similar to the 1950s Aba Women's Riot or the 1967 Biafra economic survival efforts.

Religious and Educational Fallout: Boycotting Lagos-based churches and schools (many of which are multiregional or globally affiliated) may fracture spiritual and intellectual alliances, possibly creating space for Igbo-owned institutions to rise in prominence.

Political Repercussions
Heightened National Dialogue: A mass boycott would force political leaders to confront long-ignored grievances, especially around federal equity, marginalization, and restructuring.

International Attention: If well-coordinated, such a movement could attract global media and human rights attention—particularly if framed around systemic exclusion or cultural erasure.

Reform or Retaliation?: The federal and state governments could either respond with reforms (dialogue, policy shifts, street name reversals), or escalate the conflict with political crackdowns, economic pressure, or propaganda.

Strategic Outcomes
Short-Term Chaos: Price volatility, product unavailability, and media outrage.

Medium-Term Adaptation: Companies may try to localize operations outside Lagos or create Igbo-targeted PR strategies.

Long-Term Transformation: Emergence of a dual economic axis—Lagos vs. Onitsha/Nnewi/Aba—as a counterbalance in Nigerian commerce.

Conclusion
Such a boycott would not be without sacrifice, but if carefully orchestrated, it could serve as a powerful protest tool—not just to demand equity but to shift power structures and redefine economic narratives in Nigeria. However, without clear goals and strategic leadership, it risks becoming a divisive act with limited gains.

Inosky:
Under Peter Obi, the trusted one, it can happen. In fact, many companies will return and new foreign companies from Nigerians outside will erupt.

It's just what it is.

jojothaiv:
I still insist that US would be fine but my fear is some Nigerians jumping on this to defend their government borrowing too, two wrong doesn't make one right.

Trump is a fraud, he will loot all the monies just like tinupoo

Tochi3:

Sirianese:
Baba done received heavy alert, just like Fayose

givedemwotowoto:
Peter Obi will defeat Tinubu with a wide margin if he becomes the coalition Presidential candidate backed by northern elites like Atiku.

Why is APC afraid to face Peter Obi at the Presidential election? Why is it that you’ve presumably mobilized your rigging machinery, you have even told us that you did, and we say we know, we still want to contest, but you’re still afraid? Why? What are you afraid of?
