That's a fat lie. Nonfunctional government with weak policies is the problem

Why is the non functional government and weak policy haven't turned the Southerners to bandit?

Kalashnikov49:
Since Pdp and Army disgrace am, he needs relevance. That is why he is doing this, but na here him go end

Wike versus the North..but supported by YORUBA.

You can do better if you advice the bandits and terrorist to stop kidnapping people

African leaders are so backward, you called military to take over because you lost an election

antontech:
Lagos is a product of more than 100 years in the making and THE FCT from 1960-1991, Anambra was only created in 1991.

no logical person will expect anambra to become like Lagos overnight or become like London in just 8years.

Before tinubu became the governor of lagos state, lagos was already considered one of the finest and richest cities in Africa even before tinubu became the governor.

(Lagos already had international economic boosting infrastructures like airports, seaports, major road networks, football stadiums and many others even before tinubu became the governor of lagos state). Lagos was actually the former FCT.

before OBI became the governor of Anambra state, Anambra never had things like an
-airport or seaport
Anambra never even had basic things like
- a teaching hospital
- not even a government secretariat, a government house or a government office,
( can you imagine that?)?
- not even a functioning government school
( the children has been home for two years without school in Anambra).
- Anambra was owing a pension debt of #35b
- Anambra had the worst security in Nigeria

that was the kind of state OBI inherited so we can not compare him with tinubu who inherited a state that was the former FCT, a lagos state that was already considered one of the finest and richest in Africa even before tinubu became the governor.

OBI transformed Anambra, OBI built
-The first teaching hospital
-The first government secretariat
-Save the money that was used to build the first airport in Anambra
- restored education in Anambra, taking it from number 26 to number one in Nigeria
- cleared the pension debt of #35b he inherited
- never owed any worker salary or pension as at the time he was living office
- Anambra was eventually declared the safest state in Nigeria during PETER OBI by the then inspector general of police .
- during PETER OBI Anambra was eventually declared the state with the highest road network by the federal ministry of works.
These are facts on groud.

With all that and many more ACHIEVEMENTS, OBI never borrowed.

Have you imagined what would have happened if OBI inherited a state like lagos as tinubu did?

OBI IS TRULY A GOLD
A vote for Obi will change Nigeria forever. Be on the right side of history.

copied.

You said Obi never borrowed but his successor said he left debt, Soludo the current governor also said all his investments in Anambra is next to nothing.

A lot of Igbo here on Nairaland openly criticised Obi government. The thread is still active.

Is this your package opinion that you ant people to believe?

Irony1:
Oga there is nothing like development going on, stop deceiving yourself here. It is just your Yoruba elites throwing format and trying to make money for themselves. Once they are out of power they will remember restructuring and state police again.

That's why we are calling them to order, at least in Lagos they built light rail for us and SW is still relatively peaceful than other region, we should and complain and criticised when it gets to our doorstep that the reason why SW still serve as IDP camp to other regions.

Nigeria will be better if each region can accommodate and cater for its people and don't depend solely on the economic prosperity and peaceful atmosphere of a single region

This is thread of bad election losers.

Over 400 elective positions were vie for in 2023 but na only Tinubu go come do the work.

If your representative are just figure head why no collapse them and let know say na only Tinubu you go hold responsible, kids everywhere

U

Sermwell:
Let him try to contest first in 2027, they'll still send you to come here and demonize him

Na your people they demarket your leaders, there is thread here where many of you lashed out at Peter Obi as governor only to start praising him when he vie for the president position.

People with no conviction

esnbrutality:
Yoruba have abandoned their KOGI cousins.

That is how they supported army killing people in itsekiri, uhrobo, isoko. That is how they say IGBOs are the problem.

Why are Yoruba on all IGBO related affairs, but don't talk when it happens to them or their relatives from other regions.

In Kwara State, it's already occupied and conquered. Same applies to others and they avoid those threads like ebola virus.


IGBOs know your enemies.

You are an Aboki disguising as Igbo, i will burst many of you disguising here to cause confusion

Klington:
Praise singers and justifiers of bare minimum and mediocrity sighted.

Soludo is a mediocre?

If a first class in Economics is termed mediocre what do you call a 3rd class in Philosophy?

You guys should free MNK, what should concern sane Nigeria is Gumi walking free and making inciting statements here and there.

Someone that was rejected by Saudi Arabia still have gut granting press statements.

Lightman300:
No.

As usual, we'll leave cancer , and start aggressively treating ringworm, pouring in billions ,and hoping that the elephant in the room will suddenly evaporate. Yinmu.

Lori iro!

Hard line Islam is the main cause of insecurity, not just in Nigeria but globally.

When Biden came in alot of Afghans were relocated into the US without proper vetting.Few days ago, one of them opened fire on soldiers. One special soldier, just twenty years old was fatally shot thereby killing her.Another, 24 years is in icu. Based on available report, it will take miracle for the second soldier to scale through. I'm tempted to say that the very oxygen Islam need to survive in any where in the world is violence. Without violence, that religion will naturally fissle out.But I won't say it.

Hard line Islam is fueling insecurity in Nigeria. When people are groomed from a very tender age to hate another who don't belief like they do, we already have a crisis at hand.

I'm assuming two things about the op: crass ignorance, or taqqiya!

I disagree with you.
Saudi practice Islam
Quatar and Dubai are Islamic countries but they are not backward like the model we have in Nigeria.

For example Islam in Saudi reject Gumi but Nigeria embraces him.

Other countrues seek foreign intervention in area they can defeat but our northern brothers reject foreign support, but same people don't reject foreign aides.

Understanding the north is like trying to read the writing of a cobweb. It makes no sense in many things they rationalize as normal. Worse, their elites support it.

This is not about Islam it is about some people belief, ideology and way of life

PulaPower:
You, what will your grandchildren enjoy?

Skeleton of IPOB work.

I no fit laugh o

I think this should be directed at the northerners.

Anyone who have lived in the north will know that Nigeria is sitting on a drum of gun powerder.

This is something the culture and their elites approved. It is insane to see a governor doing mass wedding for his people,

In 30 years a person in the north can produce children that would make up a LG with the way they marry many wives and have many children.

This dicitomy in North vs South ideology over birth rate will create a disproportion in political arrangement in the next 20 years as the north will not need the vote of the South to become president.

This is unhealthy and dangerous to a united Nigeria, the better we restructure and embark on regional system the better for us.

This procreation ideology from one region will eventually spell doom for this country

ZombieTAMER:
Have you seen the video

A bandit threatening to kidnap your president

Our president, correct yourself

floss:
Will you type this nonsense if Jonathan was the president ?

At least only 4 northern states was occupied by terrorist during Johnathan’s tenure but today your saint Apc government have made Yorubas to be one with Fulanis …. Yet you have no political appointment in the current government, bandits targeting you as well

Keep shut I worked with Jonathan right ally, I equally patronise one of Peter Obi business, ( not Next) so stop making fuss out of no issue.
Politics is only a game not Nzogbu Nzogbu fight many of you tag it

festacman:
Is it fair for Tinubu to throw his own APC candidate, leadership and members in Anambra State under the bus and ally with APGA just for selfish reasons? Isn that an anti-party activity?

He may be hailed as strategist but it is a very negative precedence. It is an act of impunity. It is an abuse of influence and power. It doesn't help democracy and party growth.


I support Soludo and have sympathy for APGA but the truth must be said.

Dud he campaign for Soludo as Peter Obi did for the ADC candidate at the detriment of his LP candidate?

E- slap should be created for post like this

Dagah2:
Helinues and Ttalk, na here dem dey see una

Abeg dont link me with that guy o. He is operating from a different planet that is close to those people terrorising the nation

Nijaforward:
Nigerians are just too insensitive to reality…what he said is absolutely correct..:the expensive road is a misplaced responsibility at the time of this huge insecurity in the country and the problems with Nigerians is that they put emotions into everything…the road project that doesn’t have accountability but using it to embezzle funds…Nigerians are unnecessarily making these leaders too comfortable when someone said the right thing to make the government sit well …all you will do is yo go against who is fighting for you…Nigeria future is so bleak

Is it the security vote and security budget that have accountability.

Many senseless post abound on Nairaland

SmartPolician:
My argument is that the money spent on that road should've been channeled to power generation, transmission and distribution.

Tinubu asked state governors to start taking care of those areas, but he didn't bother to check how many is investing in it. How much do states have to invest in power?

Those trillions he's wasting on that useless road should've formed a counterpart fund for states willing to invest in power. The FG pays 50% and has a 50% stake in power project proceeds, while states and private players will pay the 50% between them.

There can never be rapid growth without adequate power generation. In fact, tech cannot even thrive in an environment where there's no power.

Running a country isn't rocket science; we just have the dumbest of us leading us with their even dumber supporters hailing everything they do.

It is this type of post that provoke people to respond harshly, are you not leaving in Nigeria when states were legally given power to generate, transmit and distribute power?

If I state don't have enough funds what stops them from seeking private partnership?

I wonder why some people convinienty chose to support those who are not doing their duty.

The main purpose is to have easy road access to south south crude oil without the rigor of traveling through the SE states . It a “sophisticated “ political maneuver.

After the construction, the SE can go ahead and have their own country, no one will care as long as the oil is still accessible.

Talk like who go school, crude is not transported in tankers it is transported through pipe channels already built

https://x.com/ShehuAA/status/1993457659522302321?t=ddxWpC5wV3sRP-GBc08EDQ&s=19[/quote]Because na only North get Nigeria, after Buhari stated that all foreign intervention should go to the north

After all anchor borrowers money ended up in the pocket of the north

After all direct cash transfer ended in the pocket of the north

The little one left for development should equally be given to the north who created insecurity for themselves.

Na which kain wahala be this? Na only the north get Nigeria?

MadPolitician:
And igbos are not into industrial imports? Who run the chemical import business in Nigeria. That's what I am into. Are you guys this unteachable or you just don't want to come to terms with the reality? I mean we have gone through this several times before..
Do you even research before jumping online to do your pay as you post job?

I said that folks from the South East are responsible for almost all your import tariff earnings! That's a fact and not a lie. We have gone through that here a lot. Over 65% of your imported goods first end up in the east.

The remaining 35% is shared by the rest of the country including your Lagos. Now who runs the import business in Lagos and Abuja? Folks from the United States of Yorubaland, right?
Be fair to your self! That you don't like a situation is not enough reason for you to deny the existence of such reality!

Dey zuuzuu..

Now that you know, you will start a campaign to close all ports in Nigeria!?

I wonder why you guys always turn every discussion to fight of superiority. I won't engage you on that

Because someone who work port say something because of ethnic interest doesn't make it right.

Let the Moghalu present data from NBS to support his ego massaging comment. Until then all na wash.

Pls don't engage me again if your purpose is for ego flaunting

Thank you

A presidential material who know his onions. Let's your good works speak for you when you leave office, records don't lie, we will see it if you perform or not. Presently you are doing a great work within your capacity

VeeVeeMyLuv:
Can't you guys sense that the guy is obviously from the North?

Yean, my bad a lot of them are disgusing as a Yoruba and Igbo since the Trump intervention started, they mobilised with full force to cause chaos among the Southerners, it sad that many of the Yoruba and Igbo fell for the trap.

The North is simply using the South to fight their fight

MrDoGood:
Their lands are big, no doubt. The north understands politics on time and are way ahead of the south. Go to their LGA and see nothing is happening there. They're just collecting allocations and sharing. There are places in the north that don't even have a telephone network, no light, no roads and they still live in stone age.

And yet they call it a LG

They don't even come out for census, they just give you figures

The average childbirth by a northern woman is between 5-6, while southern woman is between 3-4. So, forget whatever the media is telling you

This has been captured in my first post but your hateful brother in their usual way attacked my post even when I didn't mentioned SE.

All these SE and SW online fight won't help anyone in face of a real threat that is looming to consume us all.

In 30 years, a northerner can birth a LG when an average Southerner still maintain moderate family.

What do you say to a culture where governor pay for marriage and even do mass marriage?

What becomes of Nigeria when these people equally mass procreate in 15years?

These are real danger that our regional leaders should begin to address.

A country where one region cherished life but the other despites it.

Nigeria need to begin to rethink how our unborn generation will be saved, we are currently living in a keg of gun powder.

Resource control can even be a starting point which can create healthy competition.

Irony1:
Have SW asked for referendum? Imports and selling of industrial material is it consulting or is it not trading? Also the lie that Zik opposed secession in the constitution is becoming stale. Why did Awolowo in Lancaster along with Sardauna and Zik sign the document that as a precondition for independence that the borders of colonial Nigeria must noy be touched or redrawn. Awo wanted to outsmart the British who were clever than him, you signed a document that bars secession, yet you want it included in the same constitution that the british governor general would approve abi!!! Oga these lies are stale.

Are you waiting for SW to ask for referendum before you follow suit?

Presently what concerns us is development of our region and that's what we are doing here.

If you are smart you will rather open a thread about your priority and mobilise your people to comment on it

Irony1:
So you are openely wishing and advocating for disintegration of Nigeria right. Until you are picked up una eye go clear.

Peaceful agitation is a fundamental right of every human.
Did the Nigeria government charge MNK for agitating peacefully?

They charged him for terrorizing Nigeria, and other related offenses.

Nigeria should go regional or Confederal if total dissolution won't be possible

MadPolitician:
Yes!
It is SE money.
Oil and gas money from the SE which you guys use your NNPCs suppressed data to downplay, while readying for war to stop the same SE from living Nigeria wuth their sicalled "bottle of oil".
Let's have an independent assessment of oil that comes from The SE, including from slant engineering...

SE businesses contribute the highest amounts of tariffs paid at your ports from where most of your non oil revenue that funds your budget, comes from. The SE accounts for over 70% of your port tariff earnings! That is earthshaking!

Go through your budget and see how much percentage of the budget depends totalky on incomes that come from the Custom Service. That is when you will know why your uncles at Abuja will rather be bombed by Donald Trump or leave the east to go..

Look I don't like engaging in all these childish discussion.

The jargon you wrote above remain a jargon without a variable data to support that your businesses contribute the largest tarriff.

It is a shame to think that other region will champion a cause you so much desire.

What stops your legislators from presenting a bill for referendum since outright call for session will amount to treason based on stand if Azikwe who vehemently opposed the decision clause in the constitution.

Why stop your leaders from asking for referendum that will eventually lead to removal of SE from Nigeria?

Do you want Adeola or Abdullahi to move such motion where Shukudi is seated?

Let me burst you, the highest chunk of import are industrial material and your people are only into trading, so don't come with lies you speak to yourself just to make yourself happy.

If you want to leave Nigeria ask Abaribe to present a bill, we will support it

MrDoGood:
Sir I've been to all the northern states, they don't have population as they claim.


The states with highest population in north are Kano, Kaduna and most of the population there are people from the south that migrated there. In all mothers states, the population comes from sabon giri. You can go and do your findings.


Just like Abuja, the gbagyi people are almost nowhere. People from the south have taken over the land of Abuja

If they don't have the population doesn't mean they won't have the population, even with no population, they have highest number of LG, highest number of state and collect the highest allocation.

What if the now have the real population in 20 years time.

I've lived in the north the way they marry and give birth is genuinely scary, if you add it to their early marriage you will know that the population explosion thst will hit this country will create more chaos than what insecurity is presently causing

MadPolitician:
"Private funding"?
That is underhand federal funding from Abuja?
Same way the federal government is using almost all the budgetary allocation to the ministry of transport to fund Lagos, Ogun, Kano and kaduna light rails while other parts of the country rot...

LINK:


https://www.thecable.ng/nassembly-inserts-n400bn-light-rail-projects-for-four-states-in-2025-budget/#google_vignette

What is your problem with that, was it SE money that was used to construct the light rail from Abuja to Kaduna.
