bencarson007: Not just seaports, you need enabling infrastructure. That is how you lot were shouting for international airport in the East. They gave you, why are you still running to Lagos? There is a port in Onne, use it. 11 Likes |

cocolacec: It seems you can't even interpret your own data. The least performing state in SE is Ebonyi yet they're generating almost double of what Ekiti is generating! And they're mates o!! What you don't understand is that while SW states have reached saturation point in terms of revenue generation, considering how they've widened their tax net to include ORDINARY PURE WATER SELLERS, SE on the other hand is yet to scratch the surface. States like Abia and Anambra can easily double their revenue generation without breaking sweat. Enugu is already generating relatively high revenue and Imo can do likewise too while Ebonyi has already left all its mates in the dust. We Igbos thrive in competition, so don't worry about us, rather watch and see how things unravel going forward. 6 Likes |

joyandfaith:The only reason why foreigners are doing business in Lagos is because of the Nigerian population. Do you think the other states will allow products to be shipped from Lagos if we break up Nigeria? Every businessman will be forced to set up another branch in those states or face heavy tax when transporting those goods. Everyone will know the importance of one big country after we have succeeded in dividing Nigeria . 2 Likes |

Let every states that drink beer or allow of alcohol consumption collect vat and no alcohol no vat because you cannot ban alcohol in your state and you want to share from vat collected from the sales of alcoholic beverages. No way |

bencarson007: Akuko. I don't give a fvck where you're from, though I suspect you are igbo because it is them that make such spurious claims. More than half of Lagos IGR are gotten from paye taxes (pay-as-you-earn workers in especially the civil service and the organized private sector, not some traders that evade more taxes than they pay. In Rivers State, their IGR mostly comes from the oil and gas sector domiciled within the state) so it is blatant falsehood to attribute the bulk of Lagos IGR to igbos who actually leech more than they contribute to the state. And hear this. The top 5 states collecting the highest VAT are Lagos, FCT, Rivers, Kano, and Kaduna. No single SE state features on that list. Do Kaduna and Kano have seaports? Upon say you people have big markets in igboland, una still no dey collect VAT wey make sense. IGR una no fit collect, VAT sef una still no show. Yet una wan claim credit for other people's efforts. Una dey ment. 20 Likes 2 Shares |

DonroxyII: Another senseless crap! Aside Lagos, where else in Nigeria are Igbo men investing more in terms of commerce and industry if not East? Have you been to Onitsha, Aba or Nnewi? Any big businessman you see in Lagos who is into trade/commerce/ has almost same investments they have in Lagos in the East. Same way Lagos and Abuja attracts big Igbo men is also how it attracts both Yorubas and every other Nigerian. So what's your point? 3 Likes |

cocolacec: In addition, before the Igbo coup of 1966, Azikiwe frustrated all attempts by Awolowo and Tarawa Balewa to include a secessionist clause into the 1959 (independence) constitution. Then in 1966, Aguyi Ironsi destroyed regionalism by promulgating a decree turning Nigeria to a unitary state. That unitary system is what the North is explicating to this day. Needless to say, the unitary decree was drafted by another Igbo, Ben Nwabueze. You can see the incalculable damage that that the Igbo nation has done to Nigeria. 2 Likes |

Foreigna2: You're absolutely ignorant! Lagos has been the capital of Nigeria since amalgamation in the 1800's and most investments by both federal government, foreigners and all Nigerians have been channeled there. Who is talking about ibadan? The world's largest slum settlement and a dead zone?! Building a television station before France is just fantasy, it means nothing in the grand scheme of things.

The Tax that Dangote company will pay is more than the whole SE combined. Dangote company employed more staff than the whole SE not to talk about other Northerners with huge investments as well. I disagree with states collecting the whole money, it should be shared in percentages, the more you collect the more your share. A city like Lagos, Rivers, Kaduna, Kano, Oyo etc is built by all Nigerians, different tribes have huge investments in these cities. 1 Like |
