Jobs/VacanciesRe: An Average Worker In Lagos Spends At Least 4 Hours In Traffic Every Day by sulaak(m):
I recall working at the Nigeria Secretariat, Ikoyi as an intern in the mid-1980s; we usually left our house at Alaka Surulere between 5:30-6:00 AM daily to beat the traffic. I was doing extramural A-Levels at that time and would have to leave my place of work at 4:00 PM to get to my evening class at 6:30 PM three times a week over a period of two years.

It was terrible in the 1980s and yet 10 times worst today, the overpopulation is the reason why Lagos is struggling to cope.

Despite Lagos losing its FCT role to Abuja, the population has tripled from 5-7 million in the 80s to 20 million today, it is not sustainable, and Nigerians must accept that the internal legal migration must be controlled. Infrastructure Development (Port, Rail and Road ) in the SS and SE must be a priority as well as dry ports in North Central and Northern Nigeria.

This is Lagos island not Lagos State.

Just like Oyo state is different from Oyo town.

Enugu town is different from Enugu state

Lagos State is a Creation of the Nigerian military government.

By the way, there is nothing contentious in saying Lagos State is Yoruba land.

The whole of Nigeria once belonged to Royal Niger company as a private property. It doesn't mean there were no indigenous Hasuas in Kano or indigenous Igbos in Anambra at that time.
Oseni is an urchin, paying lip service to his Igbo boss at Arise news; people like him behave like afonja.

loosecanon50:
That is it, tribal bigotry is the tool they use to divide us. Sadly, that will remain our reality with the current crop of leaders we have.

Peter Obi should hurry up and reclaim his mandate so a new Nigeria can be born devoid of hate and bigotry.
There is an underlying problem in the SW, especially in Lagos. The continuous domination of Lagos's real estate and retail market is impacting Yoruba's economic power, and the politicians have latched on to this as a political issue.

Yoruba's economic slowdown is entirely their own fault as they sold their land and properties to determined Asians and Igbo merchants at the expense of their economic legacies.

Now that they see Igbo gunning for their political base in SW, there is bound to be a backlash as Yoruba politicians have seen this as an opportunity to recover their political base.

Yoruba have always preferred restructuring and decentralisation.

Though many are not happy with his appointment by the INEC as the President but there's nothing we can do to it as justice doesn't prevail in Nigeria.

I wish him and his cabinet well.
Hoping and prayers is what has bought Nigeria to its need; there is nothing in Tinubu's past and record that suggest that he will do anything better than Buhari.

I understand what others are also going through. The hardship is intense. Why would these people continue to siphon our common patrimony at our own expense?
Anybody who can help me with a job, no matter how menial or humbling, I would appreciate. You're helping an entire family if u do this for me. We are dying here. I'm already getting suicidal. Life isn't worth living anymore
If you want to end the corruption in Nigeria .... revolt. If you are not prepared to fight and die for change then continue suffering because nothing will change.

Igbos own importations. Let me tell you the honest truth, once there’s international sea ports in SE or SS, forget it Lagos will fall. That’s when you will know Igbos drive all major markets in Lagos. Remember there are big brands that only Igbos are sole importer, If they route to SS or SE when govnt establish sea ports, it’s over for Lagos.
Lagos will never fall; Yoruba thrived before the Igbo and will thrive when the Igbos move. The Yoruba leaders invited Chinese capital to invest and build the Lekki Deep Seaport. They should be a root that Igbos should take instead of attacking other people.

Nigeria needs producers and not importers

flokii:
Nope, Mr. Jandor or whatever he is called is wrong.. Igbos crossed river Niger into South West to benefit from the friendly commerce and economic environment created by Yorubas in Lagos.

All the markets he mentioned were doing well under Yorubas till the Igbos came, pushed them out and monopolized everywhere.. what can never happen in South East.

Things happen for a reason and I am sure the real Yorubas have learnt a lesson or two from the feb 15 elections.. same hate they gave Awolowo, Akintola, M.K.O Abiola, Olu Falae, Tinubu, Osinbajo and now Sanwo Olu is the same hate they will give you the Yoruba reading this.

Yoruba ronu!
Mobolaji Johnson created Alaba Market in 1974; the Igbos were previously in Alaka, Surulere and moved to the new market in Alaba; we must respect their industry in thriving in a remote part of Lagos.

SO IT IS ON THAT BASES WE SAY LAGOS IS NO MANS LAND, BECAUSE WE ARE ALL STAKE HOLDRES IN THE DEVELOPMENT OF LAGOS AS OUR CITY STATE.

PoliticsRe: 13.1 Million People Voted Against APC And Tinubu by sulaak(m): 7:39pm On Mar 02, 2023
Kobonaire4:
Here is a thought. 13.1 million people did not vote for APC, out of the 21 m who did vote.

If those 13.1 million people had voted for one party, APC would have been voted out. But because they voted for 3 different parties, the votes got divided, and APC won the election.

The truth is, APC lost this election. Most Nigerians did not vote for them, nor do they like them. But they won because Atiku and Peter Obi and Kwankwaso and Wike could not at the very least compromise with each other.

That is the sad cold truth. A disunited opposition loses the election.

Like I said, APC did not win this election, the opposition lost it.
phemmyfour:
You are wrong

The collaboration will make it worse cos you could have like 10 million people who will refuse to come out to vote cos non of the candidates make sense to them.

Imagine if it's between Tinubu and Atiku, the turn out from the youth will be quiet low
The issue is that 69 million votes were not counted out of the 94 million that registered to vote and 87 million that collected their PVC. The process is flawed and corrupt. Nigeria must focus on the flawed electoral process and not the fraudulent outcome

If they can register to vote 94 million, and collect their PVCs 87 million, then they will vote. The three candidates were already the front runners when they collected their PVCs.

DeLaRue:
Nigeria is certainly lagging behind and should be doing a lot better in.many areas.

But some of the countries people are quick to compare Nigeria with have more than 300-year headstart over Nigeria.

Comparison is good, but we also have to be realistic.

Today, the pace of change is so fast, and the first movers ie Western countries and now some Asian countries are so far ahead, I don't know how African countries will catch up. The world system, including globalisation, is also not in our favour.

Egypt is struggling badly. South Africa has not progressed much economically. Ghana is on its knees. Most African countries are basket cases.

These days, the more I look at the world in my private moments, the more I fear we may never catch up with the current most successful countries in the world. At least not for many generations.

Our systems and our minset as a people are far removed from what they need to be for us to develop, let alone catch up.

Our population is growing faster than our economy, which means the country can't even maintain the status quo in terms of standard of living, let alone improving it. Too many of our people are not being educated. Those who think they're educated did not receive the right education.

Makes me sweat when I think about all these things. And I am not even a President.
Russia was destroyed in the second world war, and the oligarchy completely robbed the country blind in the 1990s, yet the country can still be productive and developed. I have seen war zone in Syria and Palestine that are between many towns and cities in Nigeria.

You can't compare Vietnam with Nigeria today. Vietnam was bombed to the stone age between 1955 to 1975 yet today Vietnam is on the cusp of being a developed country with 75,000 MW of electricity installed.

Nigerians are just backward and ignorant.

They are taking advantage of the fact that north and south east are not in good terms due to the war fought in the past to continue romancing the north

That devilish mentality and snake like nature will stop one day
Look at adeboye that led a protest during Jonathan era kept mute
South west got no reason to claim anymore that they are the most educated...this election open their yansh well.

The four major contestants were from the three major tribe
So it means we the South South are the one to choose the most suitable for Nigeria without biased because they are not our brothers
And we chose choose obi but due to tribalism the South west refused and supported a man who is sick mentally and physically...national anthem was going on he wasn't Aware

If you can't handover your daughter or sister for Marriage to a sick old man with dementia not physically and mentally fit. Some one not aware of his environment but still you want to support same man to head 220 million Nigeria at this point of our critical situation then may you and your family know no peace


If you are emotionally attached to your tribe, religion and political leaning to the point that the truth and justice becomes secondary consideration then your education is useless, your exposure is useless. If you cannot reason beyond petty sentiments. You are liability to man kind

Everyone should retweet and save this so that our future kids will know that at some point in the history of Nigeria we were caught in between the Devil( tinubu, atiku) and redemption( obi)
But the South west spoilt dragged us back because of tribalism

Every sane Nigeria should look at this and read a meaning to it
1) Tinubu political party and administration is ruling but he was unable to win Abuja where them sit down put
2) his own state of origin osun. Even a twelve year old will win thier own state yet he was unable to win

3) all development in lagos is attributed to Tinubu and he is regarded as the father of lagos yet he was unable to win

Nigerians should put on thier conscience and see that tinubu was rejected completely by Nigerians
