Lol Funny

You want to force investors to invest in your region while nothing is done to make the environment conducive for such a critical decision.

You can't eat your cake and have it.

Lead the way by asking your folks to invest there.

I think it has to br a joint effort between all the tiers of government to develop the region. Looking at the current structure, the federal/State government cannot do it alone

Anambra is currently doing very well, and all they need is the federal support
other states as time goes on should do same too

Saint83:
When GEJ who hails from South-South or Niger Delta Was The President for 6years ,what did he do for the region? You guys are expecting Northern to develop your region, jokers

If that is how an average Nigerian thinks, what is the point of remaining as one country then?

Every président must see every inch of this country as his home land, and must do his best to develop it without prejudice

And it's hypocrisy and wickedness that many of you lie lives get jittery on the sound of referendum or secession, yet are still happy within themselves to see the eastern region have second class status in the country

When the shit hits the fan, all of you will be shocked

edwife:
Those of you saying leave home, where to? Your parents know how the labour market is right now and it's only psychotic parents that will expect their kids to leave home after NYSC. No wonder most youths end up doing fraudulent activities, squatting with people who don't want them and being treated like nonentities. Where you are going to live, ain't you going to contribute anything? So why not do same at home?

It is the responsibility of parents to care for their children, provide security for them. Nothing is ever too much for your kids, until a child find his way in life, a parent is responsible. Too bad African parents breed kids to care for them when they grow, irrespective of their financial capabilities.

What you need to do is to start acting like an adult living at home. Go and find some manual jobs, volunteer in churches, foundations anywhere they need help. Ask if your parents need help with anything, repair jobs, errands etc...

The menial jobs you do here and there will allow you have pocket money so not to depend on your parents for little things. As long as you have a roof and food, you can save money and re-strategize.

Just don't be lazy staying at home, simple!

You are a wise person
Don't mind all these people

Girl again?
But y do all dis super billionaires have weak sperms?
Just look at bill gates, aliko Dangote, zukerberg, Otedola. All of dem girls girls girls

What you wrote makes zero sense

ferhyntorlah:
Lies lies lies

That's her look during her first pregnancy in 2015. Immediately I saw the pix, I knew it was a LIE because I remember her outlook and colour of dress vividly.

She stepped out with her husband for a state dinner in honour of Chinese President Xi Jinping and his wife Peng Libyan in 2015.

You made it look as if it was a recent occasion, and so many took it hook, line and sinker including the moderator who moved it to front page.

Now that she has given birth in August, what do you have to say?

Gerrard59:
Wonder what the Nigerians who complain about individuals showing their family members on social media will say about this?



Congrats to Mark and Chan!

You are talking like you do not know Nigerians and their hypocrisy
No mind them

deepwater:
Truth is that most applicants do not have any business going there in the first place.

Thereby making it hard for genuine people

True sha

But will you blame them?

The country is hard plus the pressure, and the "oppression" or will I call it show off.

WorldRichest:
Which tribal war again? Nobody is fighting with you on this. You people are the queens and princesses in prostitution from Lagos to Libya, from South-Africa to Malaysia. So, no tribal war. You flattinos are winners in prostitution.

What is this one saying biko?

Nooooooo! this must not be Ugosample. This account was hacked.

http://newsrescue.com/dangote-refinery-nigerians-will-pay-double-for-petroleum/

I remember an old Thisday my dad bought in 2003 treated it extensively (I was still a JSS kid then ) and my dad, an FIRS retired director who was a tax consultant for Ibeto spent a lot of time railing about how Obasanjo crippled Ibeto's cement business. Dangote around the time was at war with pretty much the entire cement producing cartel because of the government bias towards him which opened the way for his dominance in the sector.

Ibeto did himself, and should have himself to blame

In Nigeria, you have to lobby.

But as a typical Anambra man, he did not do the needful

Dangote has nothing to do with the woes of Ibeto


You guys should come with another story biko

Rett0:
I have no business supporting leaders who have no feelings for the masses. I have no business supporting thieves. I have no business supporting leaders who pay you to support their wickedness online while they steal from over 170million Nigerians and generations unborn.
My business is in supporting the masses.
My business is in seeing God slay these wicked thieves and making them incapacitated.
My business is supporting those who care about the baby who has no formula or cerelac, live in slumps, tormented by mosquitoes with no extra clothing to keep warm.
My business is that child who is so intelligent, determined and focused but ends up a cultist because a failed government couldn't provide quality education for him.
My business is that lady whose Mother is ill and has give out her body to raise medical bills.
My business is that graduate who has laboured through cold nights burning out candles to earn a degree but has no job....
My business is the people called Nigerians and NOT the leaders called Nigeria.

If my business is your business, then share this post and not some selfish Danites propaganda.

I like this

A non Muslim is gonna be d VC whenever UNIJOS allows a Muslim as VC. A Muslim was once selected but was resisted by unijos workers and had to forfeit it before he will be assassinated

Are you serious

Bolustical:
But GEJ (in all his 5 years)constructed all the roads in the SE and Stella Oduah completed all the remodelling plans of the airports (including Akanu Ibiam) and Diezani as Min. of Transport(later Petroleum) used all within her powers to revive the railway in that region.

That is the man reason the SE particularly gave the Otuoke man over 95% of their votes.

Buhari has a constituted responsibility to build the federal projects in the South East.

But many id you covertly support that Buhari do nothing in the SE.

And you people say we are all Nigerians

Tufiakwa

Where are the scholars here?

If you didn't spend your first 13years abroad,even if you live abroad for 40years your accent can't change unless you are forming it.

That is not entirely true

kokomaster3d:
But you want to open your refinary. It means there still a fortune in oil

He is also keying into Nigeria's need to wean itself from foreign refined petroleum products, which will save us a lot of forex
Kudos to him on that

ITbomb:
5th Lesson
Use your Northern connections to bend policies to suit you so that you can create a monopoly and control production.
Meanwhile encourage people to use your "500k investment capital from your uncle" story to deceive youths who do not know that a brand new car then was less than 10k which approximate value today is not less than 5m.

Which means your uncle gave you about N500m today's worth of cash plus free Export licenses to stay ahead

What is this one saying?

Is Dangote the only beneficiary of government patronage?

Igbos especially under Obj also benefited from patronage as well
Ifeamyi Uba is also a beneficiary of patronage

Same with other tribes in Nigeria as well (Yorubas especially eg Otedola)

Yet out of all of them, Dangote stands out.

You have to give him some credit, as the biggest single employer of Labour in the private sector

bukqar:
what can they do ,are they going to withstand with the federal government.they are joking.if anyone influence the law the law should deal with him no one is against the law my guys so stop wasting your time.

Arewa youths have flouted the law by giving an illegal quit notice

Why haven't they been arrested

Benekruku:
Am disappointed you call those places cities!
Your list is all riddled with glorified towns referred to cities out of pity.
Outside Owerri and Enugu, the rest re towns!
Ibadan, Akure, Lagos and Abeokuta is what you can call a city!

You call Onitsha a town in comparison to Akure This guy is funny

thunder74:
With what I am hearing and reading lately about Nigerian from different tribes, one Nigeria is going going and going. God should please give us a detribalised leader to bring us together again.

I'm telling you

Nigeria right now is very fragmented

vaxx:
I mean it again. it is still very hard to believe .Ghanaian's student will not pick Nigeria university for any reason unless the student in question has a Nigeria background.

waec is still only means to test the performance of both country. taking the lead in three times consecutively in waec result is a very a good standard. Ghana is s hub of education in west Africa sub region. the foreign exchange program among Americans, British and Ghanian student speak a whole lot of the standard. education is a source of national income to Ghana economy and that should tell you a lot of the standard the government has put in place for it.

Ghana is currently a serving as an education tourist for west Africa French countries likewise Cameroon, Gabon and Kenya.

I was surprised to see the number of Guinean, Gabonese and Senegalese students in UCC.

Deep within me I felt bad for my country

But it's alright tho

vaxx:
you are bias in your comment. a scholarship for a Ghanian student in Nigeria university. this is very hard to believe . Nigeria universities are not an option for average Ghanian planning to study abroad . And the stereotypes of corruption in Nigeria universities is a well known case over there . the best way to judge Ghanian and Nigeria education system will be through WAEC. Ghana school outperform her Nigeria counterpart. at least for a record of three years consecutive.

No mind them

Bias and blind patriotism is the cause of all this

Protein0:
Then it would do u a lotta good to review the trend of d discourse to see when performances became a yard stick to make Ghana ahead of Nigeria in education and what my stance has been and still is. The intelligent illterate Nigerians or the ones that were trained here and go to the supposed better societies and still floor those trained within a better system.
It's good to know that you've not been to Ghana, but did you remember to ask your "correspondents" how tertiary education is being funded there? If no, kindly do so. If yes, tell us and compare it with ours.
What could be a worse mediocrity than comparing dissimilar things?
And you think a single factor is responsible for seeking education outside Nigeria? I have heared you sir
For records again, Nigeria's education system is ill but Ghana's is still not a suitable one to compare with it and if you doubt it, give just 3 things common to Ghana and Nigeria responsible for the supposed better education.

I have been to Ghanaian universities too, Legon, UCC and KNUST.. even RMU

I kid you not when I say their schools are better
Better system, so much so that they are the magnet both for Nigerian students, Francophone Africa who wants to study in an English speaking university, and even some Caucasians and Indians/ Chinese

The world recognises quality, so when your country does not attract a good percentage of international students, the truth without sentiment is that your school is not good enough.

Giant of Africa indeed

Tolexander:
sure, but since I couldn't go to those countries, other countries in Africa apart from South Africa is no no.

That's for you tho.
But know that Ghana university ranks higher thsn Nigerian universities, especially KNUST and University of Ghana

I know it's a bitter pill for you to swallow, but that's just the truth

Statsocial:
I don't understand it either. We should be d ones providing higher education to ECOWAS countries just like south Africa provides for SADC.
I hope many private universities can now start recruiting from other African countries so we can balance it out before all the educational tourist ruin our economy.

ASUU is currently on strike

That is enough reason to school outside

And Benin schools are not bad.

dabeto:
Fidelity is a feminine virtue......zip up. women must learn to forgive, men must be moderate in their indulgence.
Stop this gender equality stuff.

Sorry bro

The world does not work like that anymore

260K?
The exact amount I need for my Masters program. Poverty is a bastard.

I'll not stop until "professor" is added to my names.

I know it will be difficult but don't tell me it is impossible.

So help me God.

GoalGetter...For society and Mankind.

Let's wait and see if HushiGucci will call him out and tell us it is a fake Gucci product. That dude can look for wahala

260k?

That's a lot of money!

Which school can that be?

Mac2016:
When will Africans outgrow this foolish attachments to tribe and hometown and family house and so on... Foolish generation!

It's a general problem in Africa, and that has been the genesis of our woes as a people

Benekruku:


Which sane fun loving Businessman will want to leave the West and go invest in a land locked region where erosion can wash-off his investment overnight.

Who does that? Moreover, it's a loss as the market is not there. More than half of his kinsmen re already in Lagos so why return to the ghost land.

Tell that to innoson, Orange drugs, the aba boys doing good business,.and those in Main market Onitsha, or even Ariara market

Everyone is free to do investment anywhere he wants? making what that guy said as hogwash, but hey, NEVER refer to the SE in that derogatory manner.

The Chinese investors and the indigenous investors here are not idiots


Use your brain for once in your life, it is free.

@Peter...
Nice response

FriendNG:
Shattap. What is the percentage of those sensible Igbos that see beyond tribalism and religion? They are 0.99. Not up to 1%

The remaining don't know anything except Zoo will fall. Buhari is a bigot. Kwankwaso is extremists. North are this that bla bla. Yoruba are slaves, Afonja etc

That is watz inside the brain of the senseless ones and going by online statistics they are the majority.

What are you saying?

Most of your people don't see beyond tribalism; with most of them saying that they can never vote a Christian or a southern person
Your people vote like zombies without a mind of their own.
So what are you saying

FriendNG:
You're wrong. You still have little knowledge of the north. Hausa Fulani is your problem? Right


The main states of Fulani are NE and not North west you should know that and Hausa is a lungua franca.

The north is not about you being from NW or NE but do people like you.

Buhari will defeat anyone from the NE. If you think the north is about this guy is from my region then u are dreaming. Stop deceiving yourself.


Put Dankombo for that chair let's see.

Put Sunusi Lamido he will also fail

Put Dangote he will also fail

Put Atiku he will also fail


And keep deceiving yourself Igbo will never vote for a northerner.

Your views about Igbo is out of ignorance

So all those people who voted Buhari from Imo state are ghosts?
Or those ones in Lagos?

I have relatives who are die hard Buhari people because they thought that he will come to fight corruption

So you are wrong, Igbos actually vote people from the north that they like, and so not show traits of extremism

bejeiodus:
Dankwambo is good but he lacks visibility. How many Southerners know Dankwambo? Even in the Northeast, he is not well known. Atiku will make a mince of him in the Northeast, not to talk of Buhari.
So you naively think any politician can win the presidential poll without the support of the Northwest? Guy, you need to look at the results of the presidential elections that have been held since 1999.

A presidential candidate can win Without north west

Jonathan did so in 2011


25% vote in 24 states plus majority vote is enough to win the election

The last time I checked, the NW is not up to 10 states
