Abuja still has no much difference to ajaokuta anyways.

Very boring

Lifeless

Unnecessarily expensive for the average Nigerian.

Zero jobs. The available jobs are mostly MDA's which don't even advertise recruitment because you have to know someone in high places to get employed . Imagine telling a job seeker to bring recommendation letter from a senator or emir before his/her CV can be put into consideration. That's sickening if you ask me.

Same FCT there are places where people still use leaves to cover their unclothedness. Most places even in Abuja city are villages.

So why not go to ajaokuta, be self employed and enjoy a cheaper cost of living.

In a nutshell

Let abuja receive 25m Nigerians lets see if it Will work


Men clothing all sizes available payment on delivery

Pls where exactly in this abuja are you talking about where people still covers their unclothedness with leaves?

Unfortunately the man is right. Despite the bad things he did; IBB transformed Abuja. Although it was the panic and fear of the Orkar coup that made him do it; else Abuja would have remained the vacation spot for the President.

Laugh wan kee me. Aregbe opon imo? Which achievement?

So you know logic of revenue but you ppl are comparing Lagos and Anambra without recourse to the two states revenue/IGR?

Do the percentage IGR: achievements by Anambra and Lagos and see that Lagos Governors are just loafing around.

You wan compare Obi with Aregberascal that was owing Osun civil servants till he left?

I don't compare obi with Tinubu.. He is too small for Tinubu.. I compare him with Obiano and he is found wanting.. Compare him with Umahi he is found wanting so that is even where his disqualification start not to Tinubu
sanwo olu and fashola.... If he could not envisage ordinary an airport for Anambra.. Oga d man no get Vision abeg.. Na lekki seaport, banana island, Eko Atlantic city, lekki free trade zo e and such complex projects he wan dey reason? Abeg Shoe get size nwanne. Leave sentiment apart

ElSudani:


Some of you would not know what development means even if hits you on your forehead. Lagos is one of the largest economies in Africa today. In 1999 when Tinubu was sworn in as governor it wasn't so. Do you think this just happened by itself without any conscious effort from anyone or it happened just because Lagos was a former capital? Use your head, don't vote for a guy without any achievements.

You just answered your own question. Yes it happened because Lagos was a former capital. Lagos was one of the few cities in Africa that had continued with exporting one or two items even after we had become a continent that depended on Europe.

And so, the whites chose cities like Gold Coast, Lagos, S.A, Kenya as their HQ for colonising to further exploit exports through Capitalism.

In Lagos, the whites developed roads that led to water banks(Lagos Island) for easy export of our underpriced raw materials and exports and they built several companies and banks to further exploit us.

By the time we regained our freedom, Lagos had bred a lot of entrepreneurs (major capitalist) who were teeming to copy exactly what the whites were doing(capitalism).

So no. Tinubu did not do anything. Whatever you see as progress in Lagos is simply a result of the forces of capitalism in an overpopulated state.

Abuja is the current capital, it should at least feature in the 10 largest economies in Africa, right?
Your argument is lame, cities and economies don't build themselves, people do.

The whites chose Lagos as their hub for the exploitation of capitalism. Being the capital has nothing do with capitalism lol

Oh I forgot I quoted you. I was trying to make an intro lol. In truth it has nothing to do with being the capital. I believe it was chosen as the capital in 1960 because of its level of development.

My main point is of the effect of capitalism left by the whites in the colonies.

Another point is that big changes takes time and therefore Tinubu's works in public office can only be recognised if his successors finish them so how is Tinubu already getting praises when it's not yet time?

pquaver:


I agree so why is it so in Anambra? What stopped obi?

That's disgraceful too but I don't hear anyone calling anywhere in Anambra a 'mega city'.

Capitalism assumes exploitation.

He transformed Abuja in 3 years 1990 after Okar’s Coup after which he moved to Abuja till 1993 when he left power? Mumu.

Eko Atlantic is a glorified building site. VI is a mess with garbage in every gutter and agberos on every corner. The airports in Lagos are a disgrace by international standards, even by African standards they aren't very good. The light railway is not finished and functioning which makes Lagos the largest city in the world without an urban metro system. A true disgrace.

Even in Nigeria other states use Lagos as a cautionary tale on how not to manage a city.

Calm down this man. History is available.

Before IBB, work was slow in Abuja. Muritala who Had the vision died before work started. Obasanjo, Shagari and Buhari worked on it ,but not extensively.
For example Aguda House was built to be the seat of power after the late Justice Aguda who headed the panel set up by Muritala that recommend Abuja as the new Capital.

It was in that house that Shagari was arrested on December 31st 1983 when he was overthrown.

Whilst IBB accelerated construction of Abuja including Aso Rock, Federal Secretariat,etc and encouraged private sector construction like the Nicon Noga Hilton; he wasn't in a rush to move to Abuja.

The Orkar Coup of 1991 made construction go into overdrive and he moved the Capital to Abuja in December 1991.

With the Capital officially moved in 1991, construction went from over drive to steroid drive"

What does any of that have to do with Lagos being a disgrace? I'm not from Anambra, never been Anambra.

25m will only happen if there is zero enforcement of land use laws. Allowing anyone to set up camp anywhere is why Lagos is the way that it is.

Don't mind them ....Is Calabar not a former capital even .... I was born in Lagos grew up in Lagos areas Mushin, Oshodi, Surulere, Ojuelegba....Many don't know what these places were before I don't even want to mention Milte 2- iyana-iba. Axis, ....I'm not saying Tinubu built them during his tenure buy his successor did... I appreciate BAT for some of this things though but I hate his Agbero empowerment schemes

Just like the way Bola Tinubu developed Lagos State?

Nonsense.

Nigerian politicians are still lacking when it comes to truthfulness and honesty, Babangida was and is still part of Nigeria's problems till date; a man who annulled the freest and fairest election in the history of Nigeria is the one you're celebrating. This'd give the new crop of politicians the impression that they can do evil and go away with it.

ElSudani:
Abuja was Murtala's vision not IBB. Cunny man who annulled a free and fair election and dubiously left Abacha behind to take over.

. You are right. It was the rattling that Gideon Orkar coup gave him that made him run to Abuja with his tail in between his legs.
