Never4getU:That exactly was what Aguiyi Ironsi and his envious people didn't want. Without Lagos port or whatever lie they spin today because of their laziness,Ibadan(western region) became the richest and most progressive region in Nigeria and West Africa. They did everything to frustrate the Yorubas but they still continue to emerge as the richest,most progressive people in Nigeria and West Africa. They still sulked,argued that it is because of Lagos Lazy people will always have escuses. we all went abroad to a level playing ground and Yorubas still outshone and still outshining them,breaking all expectations that Yorubas even occupy lofty positions abroad in those nations' national govts,in sports,music,businesses etc. It is all the doings of the Omniscient. The Omnipresent. The Omnipotent. 1 Like |

OfficialAPCNig: Not how will Yoruba do it but how did they do it during regionalism. Yorubas have done it before,still doing it even with all drawbacks and will even do the most without Nigeria.

jamesversion:Just like Azikiwe asked where Awolowo will get the finance to do free education. The problems with Igbos are 2. Laziness and incompetence. Awolowo did free education and free medical care. Some Igbos even fled Igboland just as they are doing today to enjoy what they could not do. Igbos really enjoyed one Nigeria. 3 Likes |

Cosbyrich: Do you see Igbos in yor dreams?? Whatever Laos and SWest have as economic advantage over others is because of the skewed nature of the Nigeria system. If Nigeria divides, that is when you will understand the Economic parlance, "follow the money". Niger Delta, mostly Rivers and PHC becomes the new king of the block. |

OfficialAPCNig: If you are Ibo, you are not wise. You simply wrote all these thesis to give them the reason why the SE will continue to be locked up in Nigeria. If they think SE will suffer after break-up, it is only wise to agree with them, so they swallow their own lies and break-up in country in the hope that you will suffer. Is that not you have always wanted. Can't you pretend to be 'foolish' sometimes to get what you want? Even Americans and Russians will prefer to be underestimated sometimes so that they can strike with the surprise element in the Art of war. Wisdom is seriously a scarce commodity. Tufia! 2 Likes |

jamesversion:Only lazy people give excuses. Was there Lagos or your skewed theory during regionalism too? You were in govt with the Hausas but SW still did better than Nigeria and even loaned Nigeria money twice. No matter how you skew or unskew Nigeria,Yorubas will always come successful. Igbos are the only people that always say they will do this or that but fail at the end. There is nothing 'skewed'abroad,why are Igbos not making it there like the Yorubas? Laziness and incompetence as usual. 1 Like |

Cosbyrich:You sound like someone who was born yesterday. The reason why Enugu cannot catch up with port Harcourt is the same reason Akure, Osogbo or Even Ibadan cannot catch up as well. The type of money that is dumped in PH because of oil, Enugu, Ibadan, Osogbo and Akure cannot get it. It's simple but you didn't pay attention during philosophy and logic classes, hence the reason why you reason a bit better than a goat. If you put the capital of Nigeria in Akure for 20 years, you think that Akure will not be more developed than PH or even Lagos? You think that if the capital of Nigeria was not moved to Abuja, Abuja won't be a forest today? I don't know the type of school you people go in southwest again, little wonder we beat you year in and out in education. Most of you have lost the mental capabilites of your forefathers. And where did you get the stat for the most successful tribe in diaspora? To be fair, if you want Enugu to compete with Lagos, you have to either drop the capital in Enugu for 20 years or find huge oil in Enugu. It's common sense 2 Likes |
Re: The South-west Will Leave Other Regions Far Behind If Nigeria Separates by FatherOfJesus: 10:15pm On Apr 05 |
Cosbyrich:If you ask me, for a region that is so close to Lagos, a place that has been the capital for over 20 years and you guys didn't take enough advantage of it to develop more than this. It's embarrassing. Visit Oyo, Osun, and other southwest state, you will realize what I am saying. There's no way you can judge if Southwest will be the fastest developing until you put the resource of every region in the control. Because Lagos today, developer by virtue of collective resource and not with the resources 9f people of southwest alone. Majority of the oil money in southsouth ends up in Lagos, if you split, you won't get that money anymore and trust me when I say that it's the reason why your elites won't want a split. Cocoa cannot give corrupt politicians enough money to loot, only oyel can do that now and even Tinubu knows this |

Of course South West will do extremely well.. all the revenues from Lagos, Ogun and likes taken to the centre will be used to develop other South West States. In the 60s', South West was the best performing, with revenue from cocoa exports, places like Ikeja, Apapa, Ibadan and those early areas felt impact of Yoruba ingenuity till greedy Azikiwe and his kins started scheming to destroy everything. A region that prioritized free education is not one to joke with, instead of replicating the laudable policies of Awolowo in the Eastern region, Igbos were busy mocking Yorubas whereas most of the Igbos born and bred in the South West were benefitting from Awo's free education policy.. God, Yorubas are too generous, such can never happen elsewhere in this Nigeria. We pray restructuring comes so South West can develop and become the jewel of Africa once again. 2 Likes |

FatherOfJesus:What is this one saying? Ibadan was more developed than Lagos at that time even with the Nigerian capital situated in Lagos. (The Whites just provided for themselves what they needed to milk Nigeria dry.) All of the above and more due to the ingenuity and hardwork of the Yorubas. Ibadan not Lagos has the first skyscraper 21 storey building in West Africa. First newspaper with its building. First television with its buildings and infrastructures. First radio with all its paraphernalia. First Olympic stadium. The first high commission building in UK. First industrial estates which Lagos State and Nigerians are benefiting from now. The list seems endless. All of these were done mostly within 5-6 years. A lot of your people were fleeing to Ibadan then. As for diaspora,name just one company owned by an Igbo man either dead or alive abroad. I can name 10 Yoruba companies in Europe and USA. Yorubas have companies established more than 120,100,90 etc years ago and still kicking.. .Please,name one Igbo company in Nigeria that has been able to stand up to just 35 years. 2 Likes |

Neckpresser101:If Nigeria divides Lagos will still thrive. It's the financial hub of West Africa. A lot of investment has been planted there. In fact, even Ibos will find it very difficult to leave Lagos if Nigeria divides. I wonder which kind of schools you go to in the East. 2 Likes |

The oil discovery is what taking each region down. Before the discovery of oil it has been cocoa and groundnuts and it's time to know that all regions will go back to their roots and business will move as well.. The SW will be the most beneficiary of the whole thing, the south and north are not so allied like the SE and SW. The north will rather do business with the SW than the SE. The SE will rather do business with the SW than the North and this will develop the SW rapidly. There are so many resources than can be gotten in the south west but was not discovering because we're all enjoying the oil money... All regions will do well and that's the solution to Nigeria's problem |
