Going by Mr. Op's insinuation that western region had less revenue than eastern region, what were they doing with all of their money? because looking at the western region, there were lots of recurrent expenses attached to most of the project and schemes that made them stand out. It is not all about infrastructure as there are schemes like free education policy that was using up the western region government fund constantly, or is he going to use the excuse of Lagos being developed by the eastern region revenue to justify free education all over the west also? Op's argument just doesn't hold water. 1 Like |

Aigbofa: I always come with the truth. Unfortunately, it does not sit well with people who are bent on dissemination of falsehood. |

I think the most important thing to note is that Protectorate of Southern Nigeria's head was cut off so that Colony of Lagos would grow. We continue to pay for this till this day, it has to end. PhysicsQED: |

Obiagu1: As at 1903 before the amalgamation of the so called Southern protectorate. Lagos already had a thriving seaport, telephone, tram, street lights, railway from Lagos to Oshogbo via Ibadan, roads, bridges, banks, companies etc. Not even one single train exited in the Calabar and that region as at then. How did the so called Southern protectorate helped Lagos to grow? 1 Like |
