Trump's executive order on birth right restrictions will only live as long as he's in office. Once he's out of office, that executive order becomes null and void.

Obi Wali would be heaving a sigh of relief. Obi Wali who struggled for the creation of Rivers State was one of the founding members of Ohaneze' Ndigbo. Some folks failed to understand that Port-Harcourt played a huge role in the formation of Ohaneze Ndigbo.

McStoic:
Nice comments here. The North and other parts of Nigeria won't like this. Make Wike come deny his Igboness make we see

Wike is free to deny his igboness. We don't need that tout as one of us. Let him carry his agbero lifestyle to his kinsmen in Benin.

PROPHETmichael:
Domingo Thomas Ekot, a 75-year-old retiree said his houses consisting of many flats were affected by the demolition exercise and demanded that he should be paid “

Tribal bigot! Is that an Igbo name?

That mofo is being sarcastic. Read in-between the lines...

That's why I don't rate all these social media billionaires, They are all what they claim they are not

GeneralPula:
But PH is not in the east..

Anyway, goodluck to them o

Port Harcourt is still a part of the eastern region if we look at it geographically.

kettykin:
The relocation wave is surging with intensity. Landmark Group has boldly uprooted and shifted its entire operations. One can only hope that the dominant Niger Delta-owned banks and oil giants will seize the moment, relocating their headquarters—or at least a significant part of their operations—to Port Harcourt. Failure to act now risks leaving the region vulnerable to the next toxic chapter of political neglect and economic marginalization as the proverbial cock crows its timely warning.


Due to numerous inquiries in the thread.PH was part an parcel of the Eastern region. PH was originally developed to evacuate coal from Enugu. PH was originally called Igweocha.

They are absolutely losing their minds over a business that coughs up N10 Billion per year in taxes relocating to PH . Imagine the chaos if bigger players like Access Bank, UBA, Zenith Bank, Seplat, Nextoil, or even the Zinox Group decide to pack up and leave too. Lagos is living on borrowed time, and the clock is ticking.

Word on the street is that even Dangote is fed up with Lagos’ endless drama. Rumor has it he’s planning to move his main HQ to Abuja and rent out his Lagos office once it’s finished. If that happens, expect BUA to follow suit, and Lagos will finally settle into the role everyone’s been envisioning: the economic hub of Yoruba land and little more.

Lagos will continue to prosper even if they all relocate. I'm Igbo but I must tell you the truth, ain't no way PH will ever rival Lagos in economic size or opportunities. It could have been possible if we still had the old eastern region as a whole with Enugu being the regional capital and PH been the business epicentre as planned by Late Mike Okpara. If the foundation he layed was followed up to the letter, then Lagos would have been struggling to catch up with PH because the oil and gas activities and blossoming business activities from Aba all the way down to Port-harcourt would have been huge challenge for Lagos to catchup.
But atlas, the civil war, the Igbo phobia by other enthic groups in the eastern region took away all those potentials. Awolowo was smart enough to take advantage of that to foster Lagos as the economic standpoint where all things will emanate from. That's why everyone since the 70s had to migrate down to Lagos to seek job opportunities. The more population Lagos had, the bigger its market which was attractive for us all the Banks, Multi-nationals and other business to make Lagos their headquarters.
So my guy ain't no way PH will rival lagos, except there's no more Nigeria

Wike is highly corrupt and prideful in corrupt way. I thank God Fubara has dealt a serious blow to fucking ego, otherwise Rivers allocation would have been funding his lavish lifestyle

Roman Catholicism as an institution has lasted for more than 2 millenias. Damina definitely wasn't there when Roman Catholicism protected the christainism. Were it not the efforts of the Popes throughout the ages, Christianity would have been forgotten religion.

Either of Ndoni, Egbema or Etche people of Rivers state should vie for the position of Ohanaeze but you see, Ikwerre people let them go and vie for the position of Oba of Benin's houseboy.
I wonder why we keep showing brotherhood to those Ikwerrians that consistently rejected us whereas we have fellow brothers in Etche, Egbema and Ndoni that have never denied their Igbo identities and would always identify with us.

colossus91:
Sir truth be told look man has been the most in form African player, he came second at Afcon bro he was instrumental to Atalanta winning Europa, he was named in balon d or list bro

Exactly bro! Someone who was voted the 13 best player in the world and the only African in the rank will of ballon d'or
There's no logical reason not to crown Lookman as CAF POTY

happney65:
What do we need free meters for in the first place? Does the government give us free phones?

Why is it difficult for them to fully privatize the sector and get away with this nonesense of subdizing rubbish that will be embezzeled and won't get to us in the first place

How I wish Elrufai was the minister of Power and not Adelabu

Oga don't type rubbish there. Because you can afford to buy the prepaid meter doesn't mean millions of Nigeria can. Even the program that government has launched is highly doubtful people will still get these meters freely because of the dubious nature of this government

Tobokongs:
Lol

We don’t have issues with Tinubu, Atiku or Jonathan being the president.

What we against is any anïmal from the cannibalistic region becoming the president.

Nobody from that curśed tribe will be allowed to rule Nigeria

People from that region will produce presidents too and heaven will not fall. It is you and your generations to come that are caused and will never to anything useful in their own lives

Arobaga:
I wish this woman was from Rivers State



We for carry her matter for head



She’s too successful and making the Igbos proud



Congratulations to her and her people

Even if she's from Rivers state, she'll probably hail from Obigbo, Ndoki or Etche side, those Igbo speaking area and she'll probably still be embraced by Igbos as through and through. Thankfully, she identifies as true daughter of the Igbo society.

You must cynical to believe Tinubu will catapult Nigeria to a $1 trillion economy when our current GDP size is just a barely over $250billion. Even GEJ's administration in which Nigeria attained the best economic performance managed to reach a height of over $500billion. Purchasing power has been completely wiped out under this administration and you are projecting a $1trillion dollar economy, on which indices is that?

Inconsequential reduction. Still doesn't change the fact that he's a greedy monopolist.

Osgilliat:
Once dollars started flowing in from Dangote refinery exports sales, that should help our dollar to Naira exchange rate which is directly related to the price of our fuel pump price.

Just survive anyhow you can in these hard times.

You've started dishing out another lie for us to swallow. That was you told us that dangote refinery was the best thing that happened to Nigeria after rice 🍚 and beans 🫘

Putting an agbero in charge of an institution. These Lagos boys have brought their thuggery to the national level

ceejayluv:
Bill Clinton received a Mouth Action in the oval office and the whole world knew about It.

There's no video leak about that

Very typical of Igbo people like the ones I watch in Nollywood. When Pete Edochie dies and leaves family wealth for his children, one Chiwetel Agu is hanging somewhere waiting to reap where he didn't sow.

Wealthoptulent:
One day
E get one couple in SA i do watch on Nat GeoWide they are into snake capturing. I hope one day ....hmm!

I know those couple. They're professional snake 🐍 catchers and when they get one, they return it back to the wild

I wonder why my people love to cheastbeat a lot. There's nothing spectacular about what the young CEO has accomplished that other people in other regions haven't done.
Let's learn to silent in our accomplishments

Akalia:
Though I am a Nigerian but I feel the punitive action against Libya by CAF is rather too harsh.

Awarding points and goals to Nigeria was just enough, the fine part wasn't really necessary.

Libya is a war-wrecked country, from where would they raise 50,000 USD?

Don't pity those folks. They're very wicked people. They ought to be fined more than that.

naijaboy756:
Oga dollar was used to import those products before now right?

So since October, we did not need that! Dollar was saved as FX or let’s say that the pressure that amount of dollars was supposed to exert was taken off and it ought to have an immediate impact on the value of the Naira right ?

Yesterday Naira crashed further to over N1,700

Are you an APC supporter? Let me know how to package the insult

It should be obvious to you that the Psyco is a APC buffoon. Always looking for an avenue for call out Peter Obi

Dshocker:
Pigs can't crush bones, so how can they eat them whole.

Pigs have been known to dig up dead bodies and consume them

CyrusVI:


I feel for her,but we have to sacrifice now for the future

The best time to do this was under that dummy, spineless Jonathan and the second best time is now

Hes tryna steady the ship, we will arrive at the shore safely.

Look at the other side sea, its a large field with unquantifiable harvests

You're useless vagabond. When Jonathan was making efforts to reform the country, it was you two faced demons 😈 that opposed vehemently by staging protests in Ojota. Idiotic elements want to heap the blame on him. Your master is far clueless and useless as the letter "P" in psychology. Bombastic element like you

Oga! No reasonable person is disputing the Lagos ownership. We know it belongs to the Aworis and Egba. We just wanna live and let live

ObosiLandlord:
You didn't read NNPCL explanation about why the price of petrol varies in different states? It's the same reason why price of gas varies in different states.

Can Nigerians see the price of gas? When Dangote start producing gas, and he crash the price of gas to #800/kg, gas importers and marketers will start wailing

Wake up from your fucking slumber. Dangote ain't gonna reduce the price of LPG when his facility starts producing it, on the contrary, he might double the price. Don't trust that dude to sell products in Nigeria at a fair price

Ikaeniyan0:
The APC will win this election in Edo state

Don't be too sure about that

I like the man, he seem responsible buy it looks like it's going either PDP or APC way

All our politician have to do is make the offer 1.1billion naira , then the election is given already

Acquired a new house? Someone who was recently struggling to pay rent
