alj harem: This was Alj harem's comment 2012 January on Closure of hausa and yoruba dominated trading market in Anambra Alj --don't bother yourself proving anything to these Ibos. They whine and shout tribalism at every opportunity. If they can't adhere to the laws of Lagos, then they need to vamoose to the land of erosion. |

manny4life: isi amu ! Which place was provided for them I ask again. Newspaper print or what, mention the area because I went to Anambra during that period. Patriotism or not, what is fair is fair. So defending Obi at that period was having A FORESIGHT and seeing a bigger picture which MAJORITY OF YOU DON'T SEE Education is not by big grammar or how analytical you are. It is about applying what you have learnt to real issues which majority of you don't have. How can a closure of a market be seen from an ethnic angle. Only by Ndi igbo most especially the nwokes |

If the government want to beautify his/her state then any right thinking citizen should allow them and ask them for solutions to the impending problem of income instead of BLACKMAILING the governor and the Indigenes of the state to an ethnic ransom. It should not be allowed neither should it be tolerated. That is domestic terrorism and should not be give space to have a strong foot. |

manny4life: You see all this insults are just a complete waste of time. Yes I called you isi amu because you are not thinking right for the past few days. Go chill off and come back again. You use to impress me with your OBJECTIVE thinking before but it seems like of recent, you have allowed likes of PointB and co to change your mentality. Each time you are in Lagos, Go to Ladipo market and talk to the "Igbo" traders there about the filth. Not only that, ask an average Igbo/Hausa/Yoruba person about Fashola and get a wider propective because it seems like Nairaland is blinding you |

Re: Ladipo Traders Claim To Lose N100B Daily by aljharem(m): 12:26am On Mar 01, 2013 |
Now here is my solution that I think should work 1. Fashola should either do 2 things, reduce the tax on ladipo and enforce they clean it up themselves with their presonal money or INCREASE the tax on ladipo but ensure that HIS men do the cleaning. I think the latter is a better solution because all risk and issues have been transferred to the LASG. 2. Every shop owner should register with LASG and mention the amount of people that would be helping him in his sales. This is for logistics and it would help the government to estimate the amount of money and labour needed for the job. 3. The traders to ensure that anyone caught littering the area is made to pay a fine and clean up. Any sensible person should discuss |

Sunny_bobo: I do not get to read a lot of Nigerian papers, so no.... actually, yes, once I seen in the papers alleged OPC members rioting carrying dane guns and brandishing machetes and cudgels and all kindsa crazy weapons. Ok, I gotta ask you though, what has that got to do with the present situation? Are you saying even though the dudes were being a menace to society and were caught with dangerous, unauthorized weapons, they shouldnt have been arrested because they are Igbo? Or youre requiring my assistance in seeking out and apprehending criminals of other ethnicities because I honestly dont get what your point is. You problem is you clearly cant see beyond tribe and thats a horrible trait to have. Whats right is right, and whats wrong is wrong, try to always have that outlook on life. |

I think this is a very big wake up call to all Igbos in general to start thinking homeward and less of Lagos. Anyway I know that only time will tell, that with time there won't be much flocking to Lagos by our people. What most folks don't understand is that with steady electricity in the country Lagos will see less of Igbo people cos staedy electricity will give rise to industrialisation and because Lagos has small land mass and over populated there won't be much land for industries that will be springing up in Lagos so most of the industries will be located down east. So let Igbos not worry I think this closure is a blessing in disguise, it will make the traders begin to look out for other options and alternatives we can't keep on developing peoples land and in the end all we get is insult and ungratitude, our people should wake up and shine their eyes wella 1 Like |

The bold is why I said Fashola should pursue all of them from Lagos, we need these trader to start thinking home. Our people say [b]"Agha akaraka adighi eri ngworo" , the signs are everywhere, it's time for a greater realization. The SE has been in serious neglect, and now electricity is coming online with electricity with full capacity - Geometric Aba and Egbema in Owerri and another in Anambra, I see no reason why they can't go home and establish. 1 Like |

Chairman of Mushin Local Government, Olatunde Adepintan had told the taskforce that criminals and suspected members of Bakassi Boys were living inside the market" So because olatunde adepintan says they are bakassi then it means they are? |

Are Igbos gonna remain in Lagos or are they gonna move back to the East? 2.Are there gonna be industries in Lagos or they gonna be located in the East? Articulate better so we can get the point youre trying to make. I get a feeling you know the "truth", but your pride wont let you tell it. |

Re: Ladipo Traders Claim To Lose N100B Daily by djon78(m): 11:12am On Mar 01, 2013 |
kingoflag: Let me break it down: Lagos has very little land mass and it is already overpopulated. With steady electricity heavy industrialisation will rise up within the country and the East will have a large chunk of industries spring up because Igbos play a major role in the economy of Nigeria because of they are the heartbeat of commerce in Nigeria. As industrialisation takes up Lagos with less land mass and over population will not be a conducive environment for the industries that will spring up therefore the Igbos who are primarily commerce driven will have no other option than to set up those Industries back in the East,Lagos is the only place that attracts the Igbos in the south west so Lagos with less land mass and over population will now be unfavourable and unattractive for these Igbo build industries so the only option left is to relocate these industries home in the east which has enough land space to accomodate industries. A clear example I will use to compare Lagos was Hongkong during the economic rise of China to global economic power. Hongkong is an Island with less land mass but what it had was a very strong global financial centre, after new york, london, you have hongkong, tokyo, singapore and top global finacial centres. Hongkong did not have the land mass but it had financial might so it played an important role in setting up industries in mainland China which led to the growth and emergence of China as a global economic power. But Lagos cannot be compared to hongkong because though it is a financial centre in the west african region it does not possess a huge financial might, the stock exchange in Lagos is bellow par and other financial institutions economic might are not up there. These Igbo men doing commerce in Lagos have economic potential but they have not yet realised it but their economic potential will play a massive role in industrialisation down east, but they have not realised it yet. When el rufai sometime last year in his weekly colunm on thisday was analysing Nigerias economy it was the real sector that had the largest chunk in Nigerias GDP and these real sector is comprised of commerce, Importatn etc. It is the amount of importation done by Igbo traders into Lagos port that is the highest contributor in the revenue that incurs to that port, if you think is a lie consult the custom and they will tell you the same thing. Sometime early this when CBN were analsying the money in circulation they stated that 90 percent of money in circulation in the country are in these places Lagos, Abuja, port harcourt, Kano, Onitsha and Aba, Onitsha and Aba are predominatly Igbos there while in other places mentioned a substantial portion of money in circulation is still in the hands of these Igbo men because many of them are in all these cities mentioned doing buisness. That's why I stated that all these closing of markets is a blessing in disguise because it will make theseIgbo buisness men to wake up from sleep, open their eyes and channel the huge resources they have hhomeward not investing it in and help develop other lands, While at the same time receive insults. They should learn from the jews. The jews are very smart, industrious and well organised, they control almost half of the global economy, that's why the jewish political group AIPAAC is the most powerful lobby group in Washington and they play a key role in determining politics in US. The Igbos are very industrious with a strong economic might if they pool their resources together and become wiser in Nigeria but when I look they have these potential but they have not realised it that's why I am in favour of all these adversity being unleashed on them from some parts of Nigeria because it will make them open their eyes wella. 1 Like |

No!!!. Why?? because the State with the largest purchasing power is Lagos so you have to be close to your customers. If you leave, thousands will gladly fill the void you leave behind. Coscharis's buildings would have being paid for before he relocates and all the shops you guys will leave behind.
