Are we talking of paper calculations or real life
What is the average quality of life of a kid in Ibadan compared to a kid in Owerri
Kano has over 6 million Almajiri kids and more than 70% of the population is uneducated
What is the GDP you tout?
Nigerian stats tell us the cash flow in Nigeria is from the eastern states and Lagos
Who eats GDP when people are hungry?
Ibadan is overrun by street kids
Why is the GDP not helping such that the governor is begging for two more Almajiri schools rather than the five it was allocated
Not a single Almajiri school in the SS or SE
Hehehehe

This is false...av u been to ibadan b4, trust me u can't compare it to owerri!!!its miles ahead, ibadan is a big city with good parts and slums bt owerri is a small town with 3 local govts and jst 5 roads...there's no basis 4 comparison!

for God sake when will Nigerians stop this tribalism and call a wrong a wrong, were in the world will this happen, this is just saying that in the USA that the governor of California move people from California to Newyork state because they are poor and dont have a place. my yoruba friends seeing a wrong thing done to a fellow Nigerian and not calling it wrong should not scream if Obi or any other governor do thesame to their people. this dangerous for our unity as a nation and should be frauned at, whether they notified the Obi government or not, it was wrong to relocate a Nigerian within Nigerian borders for any reason. it was wrong wrong wrong wrong, nothing can justify this, we are all Nigerians

as an unbiased commentor. an niether ibo or youroba.

ibadan and sokoto has the highest number of alumanjiris in the entire nigeria. the SE does not have beggars or alumanjiri because they work hard. in the case of poverty north is the highest trailed by yourobas. the SE/SS are the least poverty affected regions, with SE being the least follow by SS. let the truth be told, yourobas like to follow like sheep just like we northerners. the east hardly follow foolishly, they are individualistic and that is why you see development in onitsha, enugu, ph, calabar, akwaibom.

Let every state do same, and let us see who will be in for it more.

akwa ibom deported 2 destitutes they picked up in uyo to lagos earlier this year. fashola did not go to the media to scream like peter obi the simpleton did.

igbos continue to scream lagos is dirty, yorubas are filthy and yet they will not leave lagos. some are even saying if all igbos leave lagos, lagos economy would collapse.

maybe the igbos thought they would take the sea ports and the airport with them to onitsha......why do these people always feel they are being persecuted all the time? why?

the almajaris in the SE & SS were all taken by their relatives to lagos and the SW. these are the same destitutes fashola is taking back to their villages. by december, almajaris in the SE would outnumber the other divide.

wont you guys ever learn, stop laying claims to other peoples land.

All your beggars are in Lagos and they are being bounced back to the East. those ones that are not beggars are into crime big time. least affected poverty region? are you for real or making things up. I get it, there cant be poverty because every one is into money rituals and you have used the unlucky ones among you for the rituals and you will now start business and start deceiving yourself you are a businessman.

do you even know ibadan at all, where do you see Almajiris in Ibadan. You are just a joker and your knowledge of Nigeria is whacked. Kano is the most populous city and state in the North, how will sokoto now have more Almajiris.

these are youroba alumanjiris. it is a common site in the SW. as a northerner with my 6years sojourn in SE operating between onitsha and enugu i have not seen a single ibo man beggar or alumanjiri, they always busy with one thing or the other. i wish my northern people will emulate the east. they are models. they hospitable.

arcbabe: what are you saying? I have seen igbo people begging in lagos.

we are not known to be baggers like other tribes in nigeria, igbos are very hard working ppl who like good life. iam not saying you can't find igbo bagger on the street of nigeria, however the percentage will be very minimal and average igbo man is a trader by nature i dont know if you know this although i dont know your age. pls get me right sir thanx

STOP PLAYING POLITICS

Mr. Joe Igbokwe, the leader of Igbos in Lagos has warned critics not to play politics with the recent relocation of some Igbo destitute from Lagos by the state government.

At a press-conference on July 31, in Lagos Mr. Igbokwe said the truth of the matter was that Lagos had said it would not accept a situation where people entered buses from some parts of Nigeria to come to beg and sleep under the bridges at night in the state.

He stated that some of the destitute who were women at one point or the order had been raped while under the bridges and some of them were being recruited into armed robbery to terrorise innocent people, while some of them had been used for ritual purposes.

"The so-called Onitsha deportation is not the first time this has been done. Lagos has taken destitute to Oyo, Osun and some states in the North in the past. Lagos has gone to Akwa Ibom recently and picked her destitutes too.

"Before moving these destitute to Onitsha, Lagos State Government wrote to Anambra State Government on the matter and there was no reply until the state decided to move them to Onitsha. Now, the political jobbers call this deportation," he said.

According to him, "Lagos does not deport people. Lagos is the home of all Nigerians. But Lagos frowns at people who come here to become a threat to security of life and property. It borders on security issues."

He stated that millions of Ndigbos are stakeholders in Lagos and control commerce in the state, while at least 80 percent of Easterners made their fortune in Lagos without being deported.

Igbokwe pointed out that the state does not indulge in irresponsible, dishonest and unquestionable activities, saying that the decision was taken in the overall interest of Lagosians, as it was all about security.

Igbokwe, who is also the Publicity Secretary, Action Congress of Nigeria, ACN, now APC, stated that Lagos was the only state in the country where almost every graduate headed to after graduation, adding that the government of Lagos was not tribalistic in any way.

"The governor of Lagos State is a detribalized Nigerian, who is level-headed, disciplined and lettered. He does not engage in meaningless and frivolous things. He knows that all ethnic nationalities drive the economy of Lagos. He cannot toy with the destiny of Lagos," he said.

According to Igbokwe, as 2015 was fast approaching, opportunists and ethnic chance takers had been taking advantage of the so-called deportation to score cheap political points, saying it would never happen.

"We have set the record straight, Boko Haram is a security challenge in Lagos as well as the whole of Nigeria. People say Lagos is the safest state in Nigeria. Lagos has achieved this as a result of conscious pro-active action taking hard, drastic and tough decisions, within the rules of engagements and rules of law to get things done," he added.

there you have it......from the mouth of a fellow igbo man....80% of the ndigbos made their money in lagos and some charlatans are here spewing piffle and biting the fingers that fed them. bunch of ingrates!

While will it not be the greatest, selfless, sweetest daddy of your because your eyes are closed to see the obvious that he only used you people to fight his vendetta, egoistic and self fulfilling aggrandisement war. He ran away and left the hapless people to their fate. What a greatest daddy indeed.

my father has trailers. i travel all parts of nigeria. there is no real ibo man in all those hamlets you mentioned. this is only reason ibos are in lagos; lagos port. when govt complete ibaka deep sea and connect it to onitsha, then you know what will happen to lagos. the only reason this lagos port is busy is because of ibos and govt knows this. the war to keep ibos in nigeria benefited the SW more than we northerners that fuoght the war. the picture below show you the only reason ibos are still in lagos. mind you iboman is smarter than we hausas talkless or yourobas. an average ibo man is very very smart. he can make water out of stone, it was soyinka that made that comment.

if an average igbo man is smart, they would stay in their states and develop their land. they would not be encroaching other states to sleep under the bridge.

what's the future of the coming generations of igbo kids? the SE states would soon become forests as all the igbos continue to migrate to the SW to eke a living.

coogar: while you people are here arguing, 3 luxurious buses packed with deportees are leaving tonight to owerri......hopefully, by december, fashola would have cleaned out all the igbo destitutes in his state....

you people don't even know you are leaving nothing for your unborn generation. the development should be concentrated in the east, not lagos. challenge your stüpid governors to create an enabling environment to let igbo sons develop the SE states....

awolowo had turned lagos to los angeles whilst the leaders of the other regions were faffing around. the western region were far ahead in terms of development and civilization. keep spewing nonsense from your mouth - if onitsha/enugu are developed, why are the igbos scared to stay in their own states? why would any igbo man leave his mansion in the east to sleep in the dirty ajegunle in lagos?

does that make sense to you?
