You have been there, u didn’t live there. I lived and grew up here. I know all the southwest like my palm. So STFU and be sensible..,

What’s in Oshogbo to compare with any city in the east? Oshogbo can maybe be compared to Orlu town or Okigwe in Imo state.

Oh! You spent your childhood in Osun.

I thought you spent your childhood in Imo or Eboyin London

Why didn't you grow in the South East?

Isn't it the obvious poverty that chased you and your family away.

You obviously don't know you are defeating yourself with this your lame argument.

BiafraforTrump:
Is that all? is that why they are rating Osun state even higher than Imo state??

Do you want me to count how many Universities in Owerri axis alone?..

My friend you yorubas should stop this propaganda and lies it is tarnishing your image and credibility in investigative journalism.

Osun is very poor and the gold you are talking about has not made Zamfara any better even though they have it in lager quantity let alone Osun.

Please do

List the numbers of University in Imo and let me list those in Osun

We should not only stop on the list, wr should also look at the ranking of those universities.

Osun's gold is actually one the best in world. Osun has been mining his gold for along time.

South Africa and to a large extent Ghana depend on revenue from solid minerals like Gold to build their economies.

manchy7531:
Don’t disgrace yourself bra. I grew up in Ile ife and schooled in OAU. just pipe low before I take it from here.

Omo Nile ni mi.

Don't disgrace yourself I have been to majority of South East state and I am ready to take you on.

Why didn't you school in the South East? Abi they forced you to school in Ife?

Oga go and sleep.

BiafraforTrump:
We all know in east Enugu is a big city with companies littered there and are also a tourist hub
Abia have Aba where shoes and clothes and pother essential commodities are produced and sold plus oil reserves too.
Anambra have their market where people troop in and out transacting millions everyday.
Imo have oil and gas and also quality education and also a tourist hub hence the classy hotels littered all around the place.
Ebonyi the rising state as we can see have limestone in huge quantity, they also have rice cultivation in abundance.

What is Osun known for?? ? ?? ?? and the baggar said 23 hour electricity.

Osun has more universities than majority of igbo states

Bowen, Awolowo university OAU, Osun state university, Osun state poly, Adeleke university, Oduduwa university, Federal poly Ede. etc.

Osun has decent Gold deposit


Osun has cities such as Ede, Iwo, Ilesha Osogbo, Ife.



And in case you missed it, below is the picture of Osun mall built years ago

oluwadabira111:
Is it the same Oyo state or is there another one I don't know of! Igbo's during there business in gate agbani and ifeleye are more than 5000!

How many igbos are doing business in Ageni?

Ageni is like my village because I am from ibadan oh. My family house is in center of the market.

I don't even think igbos are up to 15.

The place with the largest number of igbo business men in ibadan are Dugbe and Eko tedo area.

A handful in ifeleye and some selling wire, building materials and car parts at Gate.

mrvitalis:
u want more ?

Can you read
In your chat
S,E has 9.3% poor people while South west had 8.7%
So is the South East better here.

They should be sent to face Boko haram and Islamic state of west Africa in Bornu.

Shebi they want to be soldiers

I also have experience with some fake soldiers in Ibadan.

Good I have a few land that I want to get the C of O.

BeautifulMind2:
So Kogi and Zamfara invest in their rural areas than urban You tribe's man in NBS is confuse

Yes
Especially Kogi because by its very nature has four ethnic groups..

You can't just have one or two main cities.

BeautifulMind2:
Stop fooling yourselves, states, urban, rural and national were indicated

Bro I am tired of explaining myself

Ok last simple explanation

Simple illustrations

In the South East

Workers in Rural areas might earn as much 19,000 per month while workers in urban areas earn 25,000 because of the way your states are structured. Many people have strong affiliation to their villages and often invest in their villages.


Whereas in the south west, Workers might earn 25,000 in urban areas while they earn 8,000 in rural areas because people hardly want to invest in villages

Hence, the Gini would place the East ahead of South west on equitable income distribution

However very few Yorubas still live in the Rural areas anymore because of the inequality in income and social amenities. Hence, majority of the people are not living in absolute poverty.

BeautifulMind2:
I believe you see the states listed,
I still doubt the report Wealth is well distributed in Southeast than any region in Nigeria

That's because it's believed that there's a more equitable distribution of wealth between the Rural and urban areas in the East, while most people in South western cities are often 5 to 10 times richer than the rural dwellers

I am explaining for the third time.

BeautifulMind2:
You are still confuse, coefficient measure equal distribution of income or wealth.

Yes, between the rural and Urban areas as it's stated in the report above.

Abi whose income was compared?

BeautifulMind2:
From NBS report yesterday, wealth distribution in all states

You have not recovered since yesterday

This is simply the wealth distribution between Rural and Urban areas

I believe Igbos should be doing better than anyone considering how many of you outside igboland prefer to build houses in the village and considerably improving the wealth of the village in the process.

On the other hand, Yorubas prefer to build their houses in town.

lexyking:
OP why would you have to go and include states that are not in the southwest? in the event of the desolation of Nigeria and a possible formation of an Oduduwa republic, I think it would be best to only make plans for the 6 western states. Then we can leave the door open for others to tag along, because it will be counter productive to start including people who have not signify interest in joining our country

Okun, Ekiti and Igbomina in Kwara state, communities in Warri see themselves as Yorubas

See the news report below.

https://m.guardian.ng/news/were-not-under-olu-of-warri-itsekiri-community-declares/

manuelreports:
The last thing Warri man can do is to go with the Yorubas. It be like say U no know them wela

So warri would go with igbo land ?

PrecisionFx:
The south is much more populated than the north.

Millions in the south want to be farmers, the FG have always prevented them from being farmers by systemically channelling almost all agricultural investments to the north

I don't think millions in the South want to be farmers

And I don't think the government has really invested in Agriculture that much. .

Everything from the government is lips service.

AregbeFufu:
That statistic is as fallacious and bogus as the Boogeyman.
I'm sure even you ain't convinced by that bullshit.
See osun poverty rate looking like that of a Scandinavian country
8% are you kidding me right now, for where
Same osun civil servant state where workers and pensioners were dying of hunger under Aregbe, before buhari bailed them out.
Look at Ogun, oyo seriously
States that are now experiencing a worrying trend of emerging almajiris .
Just laughable.

One thing about you people is how you just love to bad mouth others without a single proof to back your claims.

You are the richest in Nigeria but you are the one shouting marginalization like a pop song on every occasion.

If I haven't been to the East, I would have thought you guys are next in Nigeria to the European based your boastful nature.

funken:
I don't think agriculture is the Eldorado of Nigeria. Check out the majority of the developing countries (eg Thailand, Vietnam, etc) and you will see that they have invested heavily in their human capital that has birthed industries. You will see that they are also heavily agrarian societies too. However. agriculture is commodities and no nation is rich with commodities only.

You are absolutely right but most industrial revolution start from somewhere

Agriculture is a very important industry for us now considering our skills level.

PrecisionFx:
The south has land for agriculture too....far better fertile land than the desert north

The North has the population. How many down south wish to be farmers?

TundeBricklayer:
CBN has figures of cash flow in all sectors in every states in Nigeria through banks.

This is not necessarily about cash flow

The cash flow might be controlled by a few people as it's the case around Nigeria and third world countries.

The Gap between the rich and the poor might be a lot.

TundeBricklayer:
By using 22,140 households , by God's grace Igbo man will be in that position one day

The GDP is also conducted using a similar sample size

Don't Forget GDP is the total market value of goods and services produced in an area within a specific period.

Most of the figures are based on an Estimation from different demographics in the state

You don't expect them to capture every one in Anambra.

In research, it is written under the Methodology section as limitations.

TundeBricklayer:
Of course Norminal GDP has comprehensive data collections and guidelines and recommendations set out in the System of National Accounts 2008 (SNA 2008). Methodologically, National/State accounts describe all flows within a period between the economic units constituting the national /state economy and their stocks. It will be difficult to manipulate, he released all western states and left three southeastern states, only God know what they'recovering. The methodology is quite transparent than this, how can few thousands of households determine millions households in Nigeria, below is how norminal GDP was determined

Poverty rate also have a comprehensive and transparent methodology

They compare the average household income to the cost of the list of things necessary to survive in that state.

So if the income falls below what is necessary to survive, such person is considered to be poor or living in poverty.

It's a no brainer that the East and South is more expensive to live in than the West outside of Lagos and parts of Ogun state.

GeneralPula:
Abeg bring out the thread bro.

Knock yourself out

TundeBricklayer:
Ode why did he find it difficult to release the remaining Southeastern states in Norminal GDP, if the man isn't a tribalistic idiot he was quick to release other western States, he know it hard to manipulate the data because of CBN . His tenue will soon end we know what fat conehead did in FIRS

You boasted with the Statistics released by the same Yoruba man you are now insulting for three straight years since 2017 with your Anambra village boy account and numerous other accounts.

However, you are now unhappy with the man when he released another statistics which does not favour you or massage your ego!

Perhaps you have forgotten that he is simply the head of the agency and others must have carried out those research on his behalf.

If you are not happy with this information provided by a national institution, why don't you assemble a team and carry out your own research.

SciLab:
Immediately I saw Osun and Ogun stats I knew it was fake. In Osun, you see poverty walking on two legs. No state in the south has more beggars than Oyo state per sqm. Go to challenge, go to Iwo road and see able-bodied beggars who will drag your shirts if you don't give them money.

This is the same region that we have seen invading bread vans and carting away palliatives due to lockdown hunger.

Let's not forget the name of the DG of NBS- Dr. Yemi 'oluwole' kale. That tells us all we need to know about the 'oluwole' statistics it's authenticity.

Where do beggers sit at Challenge and Iwo road?

Be living in denial!

Ewoo

Money don set for the poorest of the poor oh.

Cantonese:
What has Anambra state got to do with it? You made a good response to his comment and ended it with your last sentence which I term reckless and tribalistic. Mind your words sometimes please.

I am not being tribalistic, the dude is actually from Anambra

He has three monikers

fergie006:
Updated/

Alright bruv.

fabuloz1:
Why Anambra? Did he tell you he is from Anambra?

Yes.
That won't be the first time I am engaging him.

Government needs to invest heavily in Agriculture to reduce the rate of poverty in Nigeria.

It seems simple enough

>Northern Nigeria are known to be very good farmers

>There seems to be a high rate of poverty in the northern Nigeria according to most research results of organizations around the world

> Nigeria spends billions of dollars importing food like rice and co which Northerners can provide.

> Serious investment in Agriculture not just lips service like our government often do would lift millions out of poverty and help strengthen the nation.

I am talking about massive irrigation systems, Storage facilities, training for farmers on new techniques in Farming and introduction of high yield seeds. etc.

Juliusmalema:
Why sending them back. They deserve the right to be in Lagos with their cows and cattle.

They should rather be quarantined for 15 days and if no sign of covid-19 then they should be released to the society and Lagos at large.

The constitution guarantees them that..

Which constitution are you talking about?

Buhari approved a ban on interstate movement since last week

So why should they come into Lagos at this time?

Or is Zamfara a local government area in Lagos?

Perhaps they should have gone to your state Anambra

Nodogragra4me:
My own family travelled to another state and has remained caught up in the lockdown . That is different from somebody moving to another state because the one he or she presently resides and earns his living in is on a lockdown. Relocation is not an impromptu affairs unless for a normadic being like herdsmen and majority of the northerners down south without any tangible immovable assets.

Did I say people are relocating permanently?

is the lock down permanent?
