shymexx: I honestly don't know why Yoruba's give two fvcks about the Ngige man or who the Igbo's elect to rule them in 2015. It's non of our business - they can keep electing incompetent pillocks who would continue to under-develop their part of the country, that's their prerogative.

We as Yoruba's just need to consolidate on what we've got now and make an agreement with whoever is going to be the "anointed one" in APC to give us what we want - fiscal federalism and regional government. Right now, there's an orchestrated move by the other side to destroy Yoruba leaders politically - and this is just the beginning. They're using GEJ to achieve their aims and we as Yoruba's need to move away from that Southern solidarity crap and look after our own INTERESTS. GEJ is a lameduck - he isn't coming back in 2015, and if he rigs his way in, he definitely won't stay long to tell the story. The Northerners are very tactical people and when they act, they always go for the kill.

Yoruba's need to be wise - the Igbo's aren't your "friend."

RedReact: Not really like that, omo iya. Awon agba ni'le wa maa n so wipe "oun ti agba fi j'omode lo, abe ikun lo wa".

ACM10: This is more of a threat. Are we still living in one-Nigeria? How can a so-called educated man speak like this in a country where citizen are free to acquire property and go about their lawful business? I'm trying to figure out why he used the term "host state", as if Igbos are refugees in Lagos. Truly, this is a very dangerous time in Nigeria. The repercussion of Fasholas actions is capable of consuming everybody. I hope he subscribes to his common sense. This is not about politics. This is about doing the right thing.

iichidodo: Yorubas and their big mouths. The hausa man that killed kudirat Abiola has been set free what can your people do but bury your heads in the sand like ostriches. Shame.

IYA NGBALI: you are not leaving lagos yet the place and the people are dirty,what an irony.. Vote for whoever you like in 2015,it wont change our stand of sending you back to your village,enough is enough,send my people back home to us. KOLOMU GBOMU IYA E

Ola Johnson: I may end this with you if don't want to learn. You are in River State but in Port-Harcourt. I was born and bred here. You only came to Emohua LGA for service and may be afraid to even get to Ikwerre LGA because of kidnappers. Don't forget, you are still a government child, ogogoro corper.

backtosender: do your worst fool,ur brother and sisters are tribalist and hate development so i want us to think like boko boys if sense no work

mandarin: I like your assertions but if I may chip one or two things into your argument:
If I can have an intellectual discuss here with you, I can point out that it looks more probable that the region more derided on forums like this has higher success probability; the South-west and am just saying this not that am from there but looking at the pros and cons of nationhood.
I will justify my assertions based on the strengths of the other regions that may emerge as countries assuming the present structure is to be pursued albeit minor adjustments here and there.
South -South : Rich in oil and gas and aquatic splendour, oil palm and some arable land for agriculture. With massive oil presence and gas it can immediately export at least 800,000 barrels a day to make a wholesome money to develop massive infrastructures, ports and good roads and can surely achieve this within a decade under good governance.However, its problems are multifaceted and much more than its oil and gas
Compare this with the South-west : Rich in oil and gas not as the Niger Delta(until proven otherwise) but has just enough oil to kick start its economy may be meeting its domestic needs.By 2014 the region will be capable of producing at least 200,000 barrels of crude oil a day.That is beside what will likely happen in making some rich offshore claims as many as are being attached to the Niger Delta states will be lost to that region under international law, lts just keep it as that for now.
The south west region together with Yoruba in Kwara and Kogi( even if isekiri& Edo are not added) will have massive and rich arable land which currently is the second largest in Nigeria after the Middle Belt and it can grow almost every kind of crop seen anywhere in Nigeria.
The region will be starting on the good note of having working sea ports and international airport and an economy with GDP in excess of $70 billion.
The region's huge population plus many that will return from abroad and its huge swarms of educated and uneducated workforce can support its economy to grow at over 10% a year.
Aside Dangote group the Yoruba group have historically supported or administer the largest companies in Nigeria and its a show of their astute capacity to lead.
How will the country start and work?
It will have enough to support its domestic energy demand but will need to import gas
I predict its ports in Lagos will service the massive northern economy so are its industries
Its agriculture can be developed within a 3 years period to cater for all staple foods
With stable democratic mentality and rule of law, its political evolution will stun many
its multi religious culture will make religion a non issue

I think what many people on this forum think about the region becoming a big loser is a ruse as a strong possibility of the country becoming the third largest economy in Africa is there and will in less than two decades become the continent's largest economy
Immediate challenges
How to generate power to support its economy, Lagos is exempted because Egbin plant can support its economy in the interim
How to create jobs for its teeming youths that will certainly lose jobs but opportunities will open around the ports, SME trading sectors and agriculture

I think we must appreciate the fact that like the scriptures says....our body part for which we have low regard are often more important to our well being!

francis4real: Am still repeating my self that Yoruba's are the most rasiest tribes in Nigeria, maybe that what makes them lack behind in terms of development, technology wise, etc

kingkoboko: BRODAS, I HAV A CONFESSION 2MAK O!

BELIEV IT OR NOT, I'V TASTED MY SPERM MORE DAN ONCE. ITS ACTUALLY TASTELESS; NEITHER SWEET NOR BITTER. (SO DAT MY GF/WIFE WONT HAV ANY EXCUSE IF I ASK HER 2SWALLOW. AFTER ALL, I NO GO HESISTATE 2LICK HER P-JUICE NA)

SO WHO'S BEEN CURIOUS OR CRAZY ENOF 2TRY IT? DIS IS SUPPOSED 2B A NO HOLDS BARRED MALE LOUNGE ABI? *winks*

baslone: Like seriously?

Billionaires: For someone that worships Sango

For someone that founded and sponsored CULTISM

For someone who married, 1-2-3, 3 women and all 3 left.

For someone who served in a military government and give it legitimacy.

For someone who address women as mere domestic appendage.

For someone who call Amaechi his friend, when he is Governor not when he was nothing not minding age and intellectual difference.

Wole Soyinka's Nobel price on Literature is a mistake and his content of character is questionable.

Wole is MAD.

Pataki: "Mentally superiority"?? Why do you people enjoy murdering English?

anago12: if in your definition a person like wole is mad then I wanna forever be a looney. but the manatees and shepopotami you worship can't even measure up to his shoelace in all ramifications. when the south western folks enter this thread hope you will be able to stand the heat in the kitchen.

Jakumo: Watch how a person relates to subordinates, or to those percieved to be of lower social standing, for that interaction is a more accurate and honest index of character than is the manner in which the same person relates to equals or superiors.

Tolexander: ya!

That means they have this potential to perform only that they are just after motivation like the tip.
