True. There is a very hash hunger in ibadan people are suffering chai. Some time i used to ask myself who placed ibadan to b among d top 4 cities to live in. Any body who planned to settle in ibadan should think twice before making a move. D hunger is real. Business is low social life is dull nd companies here are under paying their workers imagine some body working in a factory for 13hrs is bn paid 15 thousand naira, nd dat same person will b paying 200naira everyday as t fare .he will b paying for house rent while won;t there b serious massive hunger in the land. Ibadan people can soak ijebu garri every day with kolikoli without getting tired because that is the most affordable meal in ibadan. Don;t allow anybody to deceive u,that food item is cheap in ibadan Is a big fat lie. Well the hunger reach every place, even my state delta is not left out. I live in ibadan currently. When i was in delta state i can still remember vividly how i used to weigh 70-75 kg bt here in ibadan due to hunger i m weighing 53-56 kg the op is 100% right. Stop hyping ibadan there is nothing here. The dry harmattan wind nd brown dust come worsen everything. .

Where did you pull all these home made movie,story from,please?
Aba is even worst..
I am reporting live and direct from aba sef unlike who's somewhere I alaigbo cooking up stories

Dymaco:
tailor.... I don die be that. anyway that is the only work a Yoruba guy can do in SE. we go for the best. we came to ekiti state install eze.
we went to Lagos took PDP deputy governor. na so slavery dey start

What you put up there are just emotional outburst no facts,no prove and no stats.
By the way my friend there are yoruba companies,Tele communication establishment s et al in the whole SE.
And pleas get real what you put up there are empty facts .

Dymaco:
don't. worry gala sellers go soon become deputy governor in Lagos even el rufai confirmed that those gala sellers own up to 60% of landed property in abuja talk more of lagos where we dominate all the market

Yes, just like those yoruba Taylor in the whole of SE and oil tycoons in SS will take over your land,rule you all soon beside SE is too tiny hence it can easily be control and dominate.
Think about that

He hen the way you ibos insult the word" All" amuses me no be small.
AFI all nah

iconTNA:
I repeat, eexcluding lagos the federal govt project , the rest sw states are just another togo

You are entitle to your opinion.
I am sure enugu the pride of the SE, infact the whole SE is a no man land.
Well done bro

Yes, excluding anambra the whole ibo land is a dump site, i.e Aba..

ScotsReferendum:
A true Igbo man is honest with the truth even if it hurts him unlike some tribe who never admit their shortcomings

Stop disappointment the word " honest' and applying it on the word" ibo" it's even a taboo to be honest in igbo land
Now back to the matter, now let me ask you how does your believe or so call neutrality change the fact that SW is the least poverty region. Perhaps you want a prove
Ask and it shall be given Mr ibo,honest..

iconTNA:
Excluding lagoz the no man's land, the rest 5 sw states are as poor as the ne

Have never seen any igbo man dared to say that in offline especially in lagos,eko Ile. I hereby agree with you that the emboldened only exist online.

Ofcourse you are free to say that online..

ScotsReferendum:
I don't think so

The Igbos were also warned that they are trending on similar path eg Imo and Abia are being mismanaged.

If care is not taken, those states will end up as failed states







If only you guys were not given substandard education, you would have seen that the Igbos were warned that they are towing similar path to poverty at state levels and not personal level

Mr liberal,neutral where are you from
let's take it from there

Perhaps, the OP need to see the least poverty region in the whole of obodo nigeria?
Op do you realize that SW is the only region with the least poverty rate?
If you want prove ask for it stop pulling stats from your akpu head abeg..

Anago5000:

Stop abusing the word" fck off". It's sentence that require actions.
And by the way have you ever step foot in America? What's with you children of this generations and slangs by the way

Catch yah, when you start eating like kings than the reverse we are hearing cos it keeps breaking our heart when this kind of news pops up.

By the way, this got me rolling on the floor :
Frustrated Igbo Man Shouts Buhari! Buhari!! Buhari!!! Jumps Into Lagos Rivers To Commit Suicide
Eya

Let's not cover ourselves but expose,report the reality of what's on ground.
The OP was wrong after all,and only trying to cover the truth by denying that 'it' isn't affected by the so called recession'.
Here is another news, recession biting on the OP tribe. Let's always be honest with ourselves abeg :

The National Drug Law Enforcement Agency, NDLEA, at the Nnamdi Azikiwe International Airport, Abuja yesterday announced the discovery of parcels containing cocaine weighing 9.15kg.

The substance was uncovered in a shipment of shoes during the inward screening of passengers on a Turkish Airline flight from Sao Paulo, Brazil.

The cocaine industrially concealed in the soles of new foot wears, has estimated value of ‎£3.8 million in Europe (N1.5bn)

Chairman/Chief Executive of the NDLEA, Colonel Muhammad Mustapha Abdallah (retd), observed that the huge profit derived from drug trafficking was why many are now involved in the illegal business.

Abdallah said: “We must continue to take deliberate steps to intercept drugs and ultimately prevent the criminal enrichment of drug cartels.

“Illicit drug proceeds negatively affect economic development, could be used to corrupt government officials and terrorism funding thereby subjecting mankind to widespread destruction.

Abdallah, who commended his officers, described the seizure as one of the benefits of training and validation of enhanced capacity of officers due to series of training programmes.

“The training covering investigation, raid operations as well as prosecution was conducted with the assistance of the United States government, European Union and United Nations Office on Drugs and Crime.

“This is just a tip of the iceberg because as the benefits of these training begin to manifest, more drugs shall be detected and cartels dislodged in the days ahead.”

NDLEA commander at the Abuja airport, Hamisu Lawan, said agents arrested a 34-year-old suspect, Okolo Emenike Kingsley, who hails from Ezeagu, Enugu State.

“The motorcycle parts dealer said that he was offered the sum of N1 million to smuggle the drugs to Nigeria.

“Investigation is ongoing and the suspect is cooperating with our team of undercover officers.”

Speaking, the suspect disclosed he is a motorcycle parts dealer and married with a child.

“My business was failing due to recession, so I travelled to Brazil in search of employment.

“Things became worse for me in Brazil because I had no money to sustain myself while my work permit was being processed.

“I was equally confronted with the fear of deportation. This made me to be desperate in my search for quick wealth.

“In the process, I met my childhood friend who offered me N1 million to traffic cocaine to Nigeria. He also paid for my ticket and gave me three bag of shoes containing the cocaine.

“On arrival at the Abuja airport, the cocaine was detected and I was arrested. I had wanted to invest the N1 million in business in Nigeria.”

NDLEA said suspect will soon be charged to court.

saint7000:
We agree with each other...if you look at your post, this happened in SW...Lagos River. Whether he is Igbo, Yoruba or Hausa is irrelevant as I didn't mention any tribe...I said people are suffering. So could be any tribe. What is underpinning is...it's in SW. Have I clarified myself? I warned earlier, do not trivialize this thread...AS I DID NOT MENTION ANY TRIBE!

Where are you from?
God bless ya as you answer my question

Eastactivist:
The way in which you misconstrue and abuse English understanding et al is enough to get your English teachers from kindergarten to your present academic qualification process all fired.

Now tell me if the "all" you used fell in the same context with mine.

Efulefu.
Adenuga can't even buy a plot in SE latrine carriages let alone a plot in the main lands. No wonder your soul victimization in the process..

Ofcourse it's not. It's all about your use of the word" All".
All? With no facts,backings?
Quit dreaming.
And yes, you don't have to agree but I am sure my father has bought all the land in alaigbo
Take it or leave it dude

Op.
On the contrary, pity your fellow people first,let me help you, prove why. Truth must not be bury my friend,here :



Are SE'ner left out of the so called recession

Frustrated Igbo Man Shouts Buhari! Buhari!! Buhari!!! Jumps Into Lagos Rivers To Commit Suicide

An unidentified Igbo man in his 40 reportedly frustrated by the harsh economy under President Muhammadu Buhari lost hope and jumped into the river on the Mile Two Bridge in Amuwo Odofin Local Government Area, but for the timely intervention of a passengers speedboat voyager who rescued him might have died, Daily Sun reports this morning.

The unidentified man, according to eyewitnesses, stood on the bridge for some minutes, loudly expressed bitterness over his sufferings and how things had gone bad for him and his helplessness.

He was said to have mentioned Buhari repeatedly, muttered some other words before he finally took the terrible decision.

However, the timely intervention of a passing speedboat prevented the victim, who is in his 40s, from drowning.

Passengers on the speedboat dived into the river, dragged the man who was gasping for breath to the riverbank, and continued their journey.

A witness, Mr. Andy Odiaka, said the victim, who wore native clothes, was left on the floor for a while, unconscious.

Odiaka said that he called the state emergency number – 112, which facilitated the arrival of the Lagos State Ambulance Service (LASAMBUS) in about 20 minutes.

The three-man medical team, went ahead of the bus to resuscitate the victim. According to one of the medics, the man had to be given first aid drip, explaining that he was too weak to make it to the hospital.

Odiaka said: “I was there on the bridge where the man was also standing. He was speaking to himself. He,the IGBO man said he had no transport fare to move from one place to another. He said his suffering was too much that he could hardly feed. I also heard him saying life was meaningless to him. He mentioned Buhari many times, and the next thing I saw, the man jumped from the bridge into the water.

“He is an Igbo man because he was speaking the language. I thought he was joking when he said he was tired of everything around him.  “If not for a speedboat that was passing, he would have died. The boat stopped and the passengers dragged him to the riverbank and they continued their journey.

“Thereafter, nobody was ready to assist him. People simply looked at him, expressed sympathy and continued their journey. I have to call an emergency number,” he said.

Before the ambulance came, it was gathered that sympathisers, including Mr Odiaka, contributed about  N1, 000, with the intention of taking the victim to the hospital.

Another witness, who simply gave his name as Okpala, said he ran to the place and saw the man almost dying, but did not know what to do to help him out of the situation. He said he mobilised others at the scene to donate money to take the victim to a hospital.

“The man said he was tired of life and he wanted to kill himself,” he said.
When the victim’s pockets were searched for any means identity, only N90 was found on him.
