Nigeria started in 1914 olodo. There was nothing like Nigeria as at 1901 till 1913 when all these were done. Nothing like Nigeria and stop disgracing yourself.

How can you say Nigeria is colonial master when as at 1891, Sokoto, Benin Kingdom, Aro Kingdom (including all Igboland), different kingdoms etc were independent states on their own and had their government system intact? ;

You bi real olodo. You don't know anything.

Putinofrussia:

Igbos are even just petty traders hawking in the traffic of Lagos and the entire SW.

When talking about business,Igbos are learner's and babies to the business savvy Yorubas.

KennethOkonkwo:

They can make noise and overrate themselves.

Igbo people that will be calling OBI CUBANA and CUBANA chief priest BILLIONAIRE 😆 😆

softtorce:
Exactly as Lagos is not part of the SW
When you are done fooling around you will find a way to create your own Lagos so you can complete instead of lamenting or wishing the best part of the SW should be left out of it glory so you igbos can beat your chest over failure.

kenny714433:
Aks can overtake Rivers to come second. We can also close the gap with Lagos.

When the BUA refinery is done and more industries arrive Ibom FTZ, we'll likely overtake Rivers.


The day Ibom deep seaport will come on board, we'll close up with Lag. Let's show them how leadership is done. I trust Umo Eno to fire up Aks this 7 years.

One day Akpabio will become president and we'll have our seaport.

Dream25:

Stop excluding Lagos, is it Igboland?..
Lagos is part of southwest and yorubaland, then do your calculations..

It's insulting to us if you keep excluding Lagos..

Goodday90:
if that makes you happy,you can even say Igbo sell only cigarettes in Lagos

KennethOkonkwo:

Bestmanfornow:

Before now do you ever know that Igbo man Control the biggest tourist centre in Lagos

tctrills:

Lagos is geographically in the SW but it's growth is purely the Nigerian factor. Lagos has by far the least percentage of Yorubas in it's population than any other SW state so clearly it's growth has nothing to do with Yoruba but the contribution of the entire country. That is why it is rated differently from Oyo and co.
Oyo for example has a far greater percentage of Yorubas in it's population yet an economy smaller than Imo.
Do you understand now?

nisai:
Stop saying nonsense. Lagos has the highest population of Yoruba in the SW as of today.

Bestmanfornow:

You heard me

KennethOkonkwo:

I love kenneth okonkwo big pus sy mouth ni! 😆

Putinofrussia:

You don't sell cigarettes,you sell gala,fake CDs in the traffic.
When talking about business,Igbos are learners and babies to the business savvy Yorubas.

tctrills:

First, you need to learn how to read. I said Lagos has the least percentage of Yorubas in it's population than any other SW state.
Now let me explain what this means.
It means that Lagos has a larger percentage of non Yorubas than any other SW state.
Please stop confusing yourself and learn to understand what you read. Thanks.

Again, how can you be sure that Lagos has more Yorubas than Oyo?
Truth is that you really don't know. So stop saying what you have no idea about.

nisai:
I got you now.

Lagos has a population of over 20 million. According to statistics and migration pattern, over half of the population are Yoruba.

Oyo isn't even up to 10 million and it hosts people of other ethnicities in its population.

Goodday90:
Whatever makes you happy
At the end of the day,reality is different from delusion

Putinofrussia:


Yes,reality that you sell fake CDs,gala,chewing sticks in SW traffic.
And the reality that you always hide under the successes of the Yorubas.

Also reality that you don't have any business that is up to 45 years because you always crumble them with laziness and incompetence while Yorubas have businesses spanning up to more than 100,90,80 years and still counting.

Reality that only Yorubas have multi billion dollars businesses abroad while Igbos have none even with the much touted even playing ground.

jmoore:
Anyone with a working brain knows that Lagos used its advantage as a former capital to have leverage above others.

Yarimo who is from Iragbiji in Osun state will be claiming Eko o ni baje.

tctrills:

Let's talk about the economy of the so called gala states compared to the SW Omoluabi's
From you figures above
The other 5 SW states with the exception of Lagos have a combined GDP of 18.48 trillion and a population of over 26 million people.
On there other hand, the 5 SE states with a smaller population of 23 million people has a combined GDP of 22 trillion.
Clearly the people of Ogun. Oyo, Ondo, Osun and Ekiti cannot be Omoluabi's.

Pocca:
Look at Yoruba stats. Liars and propagandists. Who told you that you are more than Igbos in population? Nobody knows the actual number of Nigeria. Nigeria population is estimated. But the population of Igbos is more than you going by the first census done by white. In the last general election, data from INEC shows that SE has more number than the SW. You people are very dull in reasoning

LOVEALAIGBO:


Bros, read between the lines. That fella that quoted you is probably one of Tinubus’ associates…in the inner Yoruba/Lagos-set circle, and he knows what they’ve got planned to grab a disproportionate share of opportunities and Nigerias’ commonwealth to the south-west and their businesses! This is why, concerning Ogun, he tells you to give them time! This is why they struggle, rig, plot and threaten their way to controlling the centre….just so they can control the Nigerian political-economy and the benefits derived, as well as use said control to cheat others and hold them down!

Buhari did his own for his Fulani/north-west….even going as far as extending benefits to his cousins in faraway Niger! Now it’s the turn of the Yoruba! The slight difference being that Tinubu is also feathering his nest and those of his business associates while at it! The Lagos-Calabar highway being a case in point!

Lagos was already the Commercial Capital of Yorubaland and busiest Port in West Africa long before the British arrived in 1851

All international trade for Kano,Katsina,Borno Maradi in Niger,Bida passed through the Oyos and Lagos

Badagry,Porto Novo and Ebute Meta were Oyo Empire Ports
Ebute Meta was controlled by the Awori Oloto of Oto and he was under Alaafin

PHIPEX:
Sorry, I didn't know your problem was this bad. Have you heard of Amalgamation of 1914? Have you heard of Southern and Northern protectorate? Have you head of Calabar being the first political capital of Nigeria until it was moved to Lagos in 1906? So in your small mind coloniaĺ masers came to Nigeria in 1914?

Go and buy JAMB form, no wonder some of you have such false sense of importance.

Point 3: Calabar the Capital of Southern protectorate from 1900 - 1906 . Excluding Lagos Colony and Protectorate (South West)

forgiveness:


Olodo.

Carter bridge - 1901

Apapa wharf - 1913

Lagos - Ibadan railway- 1901

Telephone cable from Lagos to London - 1886

Lagos - Kano railway - 1911


Who built it? Omoluabis.


How? No other ethnic group existed in Lagos as at the time all these were built save Hausa and Tapa.

tctrills:

You clearly don't understand. Lagos had by far the least percentage of Yorubas compared to any other SW states so that's a clear fact that it's greatness has nothing to do with Omoluabi's .
Oyo has a far greater percentage of Omoluabi's but a much smaller economy than Imo with almost no Omoluabi. This simply shows that Lagos is a Nigerian project and should be handled differently from the other SW states. I hope you understand it now.

I have heard you now,you don’t need to be singing it

After dreaming you will wake up to reality and smell the coffee

Stop propaganda.

See the population census of Lagos in 1891.
