What is the job of a state governor or the targets for states generally? A hugely funded entity with no clear goal is recipe for disaster.

Their pretext for attacking is very similar to the excuse Putin used to invade Ukraine. The majority group in Rwanda is minority in DRC so they are going to reunite them and of course enjoy their share of the impressive $24 Trillion natural resources in DRC. I heard mad amount of copper was discovered 2024 ending.

And wait till Imo, Delta, Rivers , Abia come up with excuses not to allow their natural gas flow to Egbin and other power station and review their oil in pipelines
What comes from Abia, Imo and Anambra combined is less than what Ondo alone contribute. Fact.

They will print Ejemma according to Ekpa.

Without VAT, how will the government pay salary earner, pay pensioners and build infrastructure? The south east is the real parasite.

You parasite should be grateful for the VATs from the South West and oil money from the Niger Delta.
Do you know the amount of civil servants that are housewives in Abuja Karu, and Suleja but on Imo Ebonyi and Abia state payroll?

That's SS to complain and not you.

Besides when SS were doing their agitation for resource control your SE politicians sided with the north against their demands and at no time did SS ever call for your help in their agitation.

SS will be ok of we get 50% but we know that you ibos will align with same north you have been castigating to oppose true restructuring.


When this VAT and Tax reform thing started , I stated categorically why SE will oppose it and it was down to the fact that you earn far more than you contribute from federal handouts.

When Lagos and Rivers secured a joint vat ruling to stop the FG from collecting VAT and successfully argued that it wa a responsibility of states to do so, your governors in the SE were all silent.


Now breeze don blow fowl yansh.
Who is SS and who is me?

This is the inverted reasoning that plagues these people from the yeast.

Paraventure you are granted leave to go and form your Bifra with its contiguous five SE states, will you be saying this rubbish ?

Aside the huge VAT surplus you get that isn't generated from your state's, you also get federal funded projects and benefit from oil receipts from majorly SS states.

The north is the undisputed food basket not only in Nigeria but West and Central Africa.

Now imagine you are in your Biafra tax haven, how will you pay for food imports from northern Nigeria ?

Are you aware that agriculture which the north dominates contributes hugely to our GDP and sustainable growth sector ?


Be coping.
Can the north produce a quarter of what they do if not supported by over N1Tr from SS?

productivity isn't equal to development


Some villages are known for fishing.... that is productivity but that doesn't mean the village is developed
Two fishing communities, one with a cold room and industrial dryer then the other without, which do you think will be more productive based on the advancement in approach?
