BigSarah:

I'm serious IPOB failed because of that sole stupidity

stop making enemies in the south

you'll get Biafra in two years

atorioke:
Kunle Edun, an exco of Nigeria Bar Association practice in Warri. He is from Ogun. There are more Senior Advocates base in Warri than Abeokuta. There are close to 10 SANs in Warri alone. Abeokuta has just one SAN.

People migrate for several reasons, I did my NYSC here and I have my peace of mind here. There are SANs also in Asaba. The whole of Ogun has just one SAN who is in Abeokuta, why? Because there is no money in the state.

you know you're joking

Google states per GDP per capita in Nigeria


the Yoruba in delta are less than 5k

atorioke:
You are high on alcohol. I base in Abeokuta, infact as I'm typing this, I'm eating egusi n semo at Halaga. I am a lawyer that practice in Abeokuta n environ. From Remo to ijebu Ode to egba, I know these places well. The standard of living to spending power. I'm from Delta, an Urhobo n I'm running my ICAN programme at Afrograms, Ita Eko. I have been in Ogun for 4 years now.

The two states are my current states now. Delta is my state of origin n Ogun is my state of residence.
You can't compare Delta to Ogun even without oil. Try and travel to Delta. I have been to Sagamu, ijebu Ode, I'm in Abeokuta, I shuttle Ota, Ifo, Itori, Ilaro, Owode Egba, Mowoe, Laburo, etc. Tell me where you have been to in Delta!

See, Delta don't even tax indigenes like Ogun. still yet they supercedes Ogun in terms of IGR last year. Go get the figures.

Grammer

I repeat
go calculate the cumulative IGR for the last 5 years

Ogun will beat delta hands down

why aren't you living in delta?

how many Yoruba are in delta?
I'm sure they are less than 5k

HeadNigga:
you are talking about message not charts yet you are talking about Fela making Nigerian music popular. Lol. "POPULAR" songs top the charts, not necessarily songs with "MESSAGE".

Be coherent, stop confusing yourself.

lol

I just cancelled out your point that Wizkid made Nigerian music popular

is dababy better than burnaboy?

since he gets more streams and YouTube views?

Prechboy:
dababy and Lil duck are not more popular than Burnaboy. Maybe in America and the UK but life doesn't end in those places.

Burna boy is also quite popular in the USA, and very popular in the UK and Africa as a whole.

they are more popular


stop decieving yourself

check out their streams and YouTube

even though all they sing is nigga nigga nigga

popularity is not equal to good

keep that in your head

Prechboy:
exactly the same way Fela was never the best

lol
okay

I guess dababy or lil dicky are better than burnaboy since they are more popular

you guys no dey think

do you know Fela did all his songs on stage?

atorioke:
Is the IGR also oil?

if you do the cumulative for the past five years for the two states

Ogun will beat delta hands down

Prechboy:
Many of una wey dey talk say they nor fit compare wizkid to fela dey talk rubbish. Is music all about been an activist? The next thing una go tell me be say I be indomie generation. You rate people based on achievements not just by words. Wizkid has achieved a lot more than fela if we are to be honest. He has broken all fela's record so what more is there?

Yes baba fela na legend but there's no champion forever. Even Michael Jackson, person go break him record someday just as Ronaldo and Messi Don break Maradona and Pele own.

Music nor be all about to insult government. I bet because Fela is dead you people are almost worshipping him. He wasn't even the best in his time. There were musicians from South Africa that were more popular than him. What about the Cameroon legend wey Michael Jackson remix him song?

But currently in this generation wizkid is the biggest in Africa despite the fact that the competition in the generation is crazy. How many musicians even dey for fela time? Make una dey calm down abeg.

popular doesn't mean best

that's the stupid mistake you guys make

HeadNigga:
na sunny ade age we dey respect...Wizkid put Nigeria on the map....majorly o. No Nigerian song has made it to the hot100 ever until wiz's essence. Put some respect on that dude's name

stfu

we are talking of message not charts

go listen to sunny Ade's juju music

his music combined with Fela made Nigerian music popular

if you love charts then
rappers like dababy lil dicky are better than Wizkid

charts my foot

AfriqueDuZuid:
Yes pan Africanism did nothing for SA

If you disagree come with hard evidence that it did with reference

i won't argue

I agree with you.

thanks bro

Nigeria must change

VOICEofORIENTAL:
God forbid!.. reasonable & wise igbos can't behave or write like this.

you see how your IPOB brothers think?

atorioke:
I'm am Urhobo. Delta IGR is higher than that of Ogun in the sum of N9b even with all the industries there. Like I told you, it is the federal government that collects Company Income Tax and not state government. It is the personal income tax of the companies employees that state government collect. More reason there is 100 per cent more companies in Ogun State than Delta but Delta has more IGR than Ogun.

oil

without oil

delta is equal to ebonyi

AfriqueDuZuid:
Countries like Netherlands played 1 huge role that no other country played in advocating against apartheid

and?


does it change my statement?

Abohboy:
Don't mind them but bro please i'm looking for like minded Nigerians to join this movement called M.O.P founded by Fela back in 79 and revived by Seun back in December the party is very close to registration just doing its NEC elections then we're on to approach INEC for registration are you interested in joining?

yeah

I am

any link?

Abohboy:
Please elaborate I know there are different views on pan africanism but the general idea is Africans coming together to develop Africa essentiallt full integration, connected electricity grids, water and drainage systems, railways, roads, healthcare, education etc. All united under a singular system

if not for pan Africanism

his county will still be in apartheid

they don't think


they don't reason

I just wonder

you are seeing something
you are still asking
why are IPOB this dumb?

what kind of illiteracy is this?


God abeg give these people their Biafra

na beg I dey beg

Masterkernel1:
Stop that scrap of a fairly tale. Pearl Harbour was built in 1908, Statue of Liberty 1775, Effiel Tower 1887... What and what was built in Lagos, before independence that you can point to?

Just one.

Google abeg

I gay no time for stuff like this

atorioke:
I'm happy that we got oil. The same oil that feeds your backward state with FAAC. Go and check your state FAAC allocation and compare it with your IGR.

Ogun State has more concentration of industries than any other state in Nigeria

I live in Osun

backward state?

are you not ijaw?
Whats up with your oil rich Bayelsa?

Ondo and Lagos has oil

Ogun has been observed and deposits found

atorioke:
Now I see that you don't have an idea about ICAN. What has advance Taxation got to do with Skill level? Your dad and bro ain't you man. Their brain ain't in your head. You have yours.

i ain't a commerce person

I'm a scientific person

don't worry you will get to the level that you will do advanced taxation

atorioke:
And they took 2 and 3 position? You are on a long thing.

For your information, if you think companies being in your place gives your state money, you are on a long thing because it is the federal government that collects company income tax and not state government. It is the personal ncome tax of these workers that your state collects. And we know that not of the staff are paid peanut. I'm a lawyer and an ICAN(skill) level candidate. When you discuss with me, please be sound.

okay
lol
how did you pass advanced taxation and PSAF (public sector and finance)?
by talking trash on Nairaland?
I know these stuff because my family is filled with accountants
my bro and dad are both ICAN fellows

I repeat without oil
delta and rivers will be on par with ebonyi


this is for anybody saying that Lagos was not built by Yoruba hardwork

atorioke:
Sometimes you people make me laugh. Trade. How do you measure trade? Are there no trading activities in Northern Nigeria? Trading activities are measured by IGR to a very large extent. There are more trading activities in Lagos, Rivers and Delta than any other place in Nigeria. We are talking about buying and consuming power here. Goods are bought and consumed in these three places than other states in Nigeria.

rivers and delta money is oil

nothing more

atorioke:
Is Ogun and Oyo IGR more than the IGR of all the Northern State. Are you just being sarcastic or what?

trade is different from igr

atorioke:
Lagos rail only connect the South West by rail. From Lagos to Abeokuta and to Ibadan where it ends. Warri rail connect Edo and Kogi which is a Northern State close to Abuja.

how much trade happens in the north? not middlebelt
is it even up to what occurs in Oyo and Ogun?

Kogi is not a northern state

atorioke:
I know but politics is what is making it thrive more at the expense of other ports in the country.

can't you also do "politics"?

tollyboy5:
Lagos is planning on a bigger port in badagry, the road construction to badagry is ten lane with a blue line rail.
Nobody is favoring Lagos. Lagos favored herself by improving fedral road that has capital impact on her economy.
Stop the jealousy bro

I'm not the person to write this to

direct this to the op instead

correct this anomaly

atorioke:
Lagos state is not more central. Rivers for example is more closer to Delta, Bayelsa, Akwa Ibom, Cross Rivers and all South Eastern state than Lagos. Warri (Delta) is more closer to Ondo, Edo, Bayelsa, Rivers, Akwa Ibom, Cross Rivers, South Eastern States, Logo and Benue than Lagos. And for the Northern part that is far from Warri, there is a railway from Warri to Itakpe in Logo that can move goods in safer way to Northern States than Lagos.

First map is to tell you that Warri or Rivers or Akwa Ibom is closer to South Outh States and South East States than Lagos.

The second pix is to tell you that Warri-Itakpe way is more convenient way to move goods to the North. Remember, rail from Lagos end in Ibadan.

Lagos has more roads and railways to everyday of the country

besides a lot of trade occurs in the SW

so the port redistribution will not change much

Macphenson:
Who told u that? Please be dully guided before making comments. Calabar sea port is closer to northern and south eastern states than Lagos.

If that sea port commences operation fully, trust me a lot of activities will be redirected from Lagos.

Even Maesk shipping line prefers to be using calabar instead of Lagos ports.

what I meant by central is not by geography

I meant that it has more roads and railways for transportation to all of Nigeria


remove emotions
