This is very typical of yorubas. You prefer to insult rather than argue.

Do your reasearch.
It's rather typical of you igbos to throw up ridiculous stats just to prove baseles claims. What's even the size of the whole Anambra's economy for ordinary onitsha to be the recipient of 60% of imported goods? And who told you Lagos' IGR is largely from imports?

The YORUBAs in the SE are marginal compared to Igbos in the west. If e happen, those YORUBAs in the east would gladly come back home to the west. Also, I've been to the east lots of times, I've direct cousins who are Igbos, and most of them don't ever want to return home. That's why you lots are pushing for the removal of state of origin from national profile.

You're not native in the west and would never be, even in a hundred years. Have you ever heard southern governors forum??. That's cause there's no such thing as a southern nigeria. It's mostly being propagated by you lots from the east. It's sanwo Olu that's going soft on you lots. I liked how ambode and Fashola handled outsiders, go ask your brothers in Oshodi, ladipo, Alaba etc. Sanwo-olu is only doing this cause of tinubu's ambition for 2023. When their eyes clear and they see what the rest of us have been saying, them to guard up. OPC, AMOTEKUN would be childs play compared to what's coming for you lots.
#thinkYorubaFirst #yorubaSelfPreservation
I'm not from S.East, but I'm a full blooded Igbo man any attack on the S.East(Igbos) is an attack on the entire Igbos(S.South Igbos) that's by the way.

At the bolded, the refused to come home doesn't mean they are running away from their father land due to it being a shit hole (as you claimed) but because they were born and raised there and probably have gotten used to the place with numerous friends.
Have you not heard that someone's place of birth is his second home?? And probably his favorite.

It happened to me, I was born and raised in Owerri, to the extent I don't even remember to visit Ogbia because of my numerous friends there in Owerri and my woman being a native of Ngorokpala via Owerri, all in Imo state.
Please can you give me a link where the Igbos are pushing for the removal of state origin from the national profile because last time I checked, Imo state man cannot be a governor in Anambra.

This your stressful Lagos . U think Lagos is still growing after reaching its peak during Ambode. Iam not a prophet of Doom but I can tell you to expect diminishing returns on the economy. Hardship in Lagos is on the increase. Hooliganism on the rise. Mass Exodus awaits Lagos.
grin Same Lagos your people cannot stop loving? Dem use chest beating swear for all of you? When Anambra beat ogun state, then you can start thinking of Lagos. The economy of ogun state alone is bigger than all of the SE states combined. Don't think we don't know how terrible your region is. Most of us have been there before.

Coward Bruh, go read your history books, not the lies your parents told you. Just incase your parents lied to you, you can ask the Northerners for their own side of the story.

Better go settle with your neighbours in the niger Delta, cause it seems those guys don't like Igbos. That's the only way you can have access to the sea or generate FX, cause there's nothing in Igbo land that you can use to generate dollars. You guys are parasites, hope you get your Biafra soonest. undecided
Yes a notherner told me how they took Kwara away from you guys, how about that??

I'm actually for healthy competition. There can be regional economic powers too to put some attention in other region too. Anambra would need an international airport, cbd and be able to maximize its industrialization potential. Lagos is too congested as it is.

The achievement of an average igbo man is to live in the west. All your brags online is just to keep updating your status as a tribe so the world won't forget there's a tribe called igbo. I guess your leaders share data for all of you to do this and funny enough, you still have to come to a Yorùbá man forum daily. You're sited at the backyard of Nigeria. Everything about you is at disadvantage point. You can't do anything in life without Yorùbá or having something to do with Yorùbá land. Prove it!

You're ignorant. Earnings from imports are exclusively for the FG. Lagos State Government's sources of revenue are mainly from taxes on personal income, fines, licenses, fees and levies on business activities, as well as income from investments. If not for the stupid structure we have in Nigeria, Lagos should be far better than it currently is.

Dear Nigerians... You guys need to travel and stop believing in igbo propaganda!

Anambra is a very big shithole.

Nothing is working in that state!!

The only two city in Anambra that is trying in terms of Bussiness is onitsha and Nnewi!

Gombe state is more developed than Anambra state.


Go to Nnobi, okwuzu, nteje, ugwuoba, abagana and see people living in mud houses.

No good roads, no lights nothing is working in that part of the world.

They will just get few pictures of their GRA in fegge, 3_3 and some part of Akwa and be posting on Nairaland.

Kano is more economical and developed than the entire Eastern States put together
Dodomayana, serious education in the north is substandard, Kano by GDP is below Anambra, norminal gdp measures economy and from recent report all states in north are below Anambra state except Abuja, even if you like continue with your rubbish it will not change the fact, Anambra is far better than all state in north, GDP, Poverty index, education and health sector

Like I told one of you earlier, go read books before coming to talk gibberish. Kwara was never stolen from YORUBAs, Afonja betrayed his brothers and joined forces with the fulanis who stabbed in the back. That is why there's an emir there today. No war was fought to take Kwara from the YORUBAs.

First, YORUBAs never forget their home or where they came from. Ask any YORUBA man that has stayed outside the South West or in Lagos all their lives where they come from, they'll boldly tell you I'm from Ibadan, Abeokuta, Osogbo etc. Even if they don't visit home once a year, they usually have contacts with those at home and can go back home at will. Even those who travel out hardly forget home. They might spend years in Yankee, but will usually have contacts with those at home. They also come home whenever they like. We don't have a second home, home is home.

Lagos would be so rich that Nigeria would be begging Lagos for loan, and Anambra and Ibo people would be begging for Lagos Visa, infact Lagos would be rich enough to buy Ebonyi State off and convert it to Rice Farm to boost Lake Rice sales

The North controls majority of the Oil well in the core South, not YORUBAs. If the ND leaders had some balls, that would have changed but they only fighting for their own pockets. I hope this country divides someday, let everyone control their resources.

He made the suggestion during the gathering of Igbo leaders, it didn't just occur to him today, he and some other had definitely being nursing the thought which was why he made the suggestion.

They like many other Igbos always call themselves Lagosians. Even YORUBAs hardly call themselves Lagosians, talkless of people who are not from the region. They lay claim that they have LR (Lagos residential permit) card. Even me that have people in Alausa don't have that nonsense card. Lagosians (omo Eko) are people from Lagos, just like they call people from Egba, Legba. Go tell a traditional YORUBA man that you be Lagosian, he'll ask you if you be Omo Eko.

I put it to you, was Awka this beautiful under Peter Obi? But in terms of economic developments and performances is Anambra not better than now?


In terms of human capital development is Anambra not better under Peter Obi than under Willie Obiano?

The data is there in the public domain to judge us.

I will add, in terms of physical infrastructure, no state in the East has witnessed physical development like Ebonyi in the last 5 years, DOES THAT STOP THEM FROM BEING THE POOREST IN THE ENTIRE SOUTH?


I add again, in terms of physical development and urban renewal development, is Anambra as developed as Akwa Ibom?
DOES THAT STOP AKWA IBOM FROM HAVING HIGH UNEMPLOYMENT RATE WHEN COMPARED TO ANAMBRA?

America is a land of immigrants, even the whites cannot lay claims to full ownership of the country. Also, the scenario is different here, we're talking about tribes here and not country. We can be Africans outside the continent, inside the continent, everyone dey answer their Papa name and tribe.
