superstar1: History will repeat itself again in this their biafra. The rivers and delta people will start wt them and abandon them. Read this comment from a biafran i read on vanguard. After d guy received abuses from his igbo comrades, he said even azikiwe dt was helping them ratify a UN charter got so dissapointed wt d biafran soldiers he went to talk & pray wt gowon in lagos on how to end d war. Dt nigerian helicopters started distributing pictures of both men together all over biafra & d troops felt betrayed. Read his initial comment below[b][/b]. An Independent Biafra (of the South-East) would be the worst place on earth for anybody to live in. Any sensible and decent Igbo Man or Woman, Boy or Girl, who saw what obtained inside Biafra (1967-1970) as well as the lifestyle that has prevailed in Igboland till date, and who has lived in other parts of Nigeria or abroad, would swear never to be ruled or led by any Igbo Man on this planet, Quote Me! If in doubt, as we speak; just make an attempt to build a house and hire an Igbo Builder or Labor, then, watch and see what he or she would do. The ear that hears it, will tingle. Start a Business and hire an Igbo man or woman, then, watch and see what would happen. It is in my Igboland that a Bag of Cement from Nkalagu would be diverted and re-bagged overnight to 2/3 of the original quantity and put back in the Market to sell at even a higher price. It is in my Igboland that somebody would have Malaria or complain of Cough and the Doctor would quickly do Surgery (Appendectomy) just to collect more money. And, the Doctor even has Agents that lure and deceive the Patients into believing that their Cough was as a result of Appendicitis. NO KIDDING! It is in my Igboland that as you are watching a Trader measure Garri with Cigarette Cup, once your eyes veer away for just a second, he or she instantly uses the back of the Cigarette Cup. Get home and recheck the Garri, if you had paid for 10 Cigarette Cups, you would be lucky to have up to 6 Cups. Use any of the Highways in the South-East at night, your tires would burst as you run into sharp Metal Objects set as traps along the Highway. As soon as you come-out to change tire, about 10 to 20 young men would highlight from the bush and rob the hell out of you under Gun Point. That's the order of the day in my Igboland that wants Independence. It was Igbo Officers that would go into Battle during the Biafra Civil War and, within the first 2 minutes, shoot themselves in the palm and ask to be taken away as wounded Soldiers. The Family members would actually lay in wait, somewhere, to observe his exit from the Battle Front, then go into celebration. That's how the majority of my Igbo Military Officers fought the Biafra War. The outcome is now History. Ask people who were there during the War, the Igbo Officers were taking food, houses, Vehicles, etc from the Civilians by FORCE. Biafran Army Officers were even taking Girls and People's Wives by FORCE. NO KIDDING! You either Shut-up or his Bullet Shuts you up. On January 10, 1970, Ojukwu told the Igbos in Biafra that he was going to China to buy Weapons for Biafra. That's the sincerity of the Igbo (Biafran) Leader to his people that he led. And, Ojukwu fled, while some of his Biafran Soldiers were still at the War Fronts engaging the Federal Troops with virtually bare hands and Dying in their large Numbers. If Ojukwu could tell a lie to deceive the Igbos he led in Biafra, only God knows what the Nnamdi Kanus and the Uwazurikes of IPOB and MASSOB would do to their fellow Igbos when the chips are down. I, as an Igboman, have traveled far and wide, and, in the process, came to learn NEVER TO TRUST ANY IGBO MAN OR WOMAN ON THIS PLANET; and WHEN ENGAGING YOUR FELLOW IGBO MAN IN ANYTHING ON THIS PLANET, MAKE ABSOLUTELY SURE YOU USE A VERY VERY LONG SPOON. I have not seen a Tribe on this Planet that is as disruptive, destructive and deadly, even to itself and folks, as the Igbo Tribe. Recall that of all the African Tribes, and indeed, of all the Tribes on this Planet, it was only in my Igbo Tribe that a Traditional Ruler, took Bribe, connived with the Europeans and dug an underground Trench right from his Palace in Arochukwu in Abia State to James Town in the Creeks of Akwa-Ibom State, and was selling his Igbo People into Slavery, using his Traditional Deity as Camouflage, in what was referred to as the Long Juju. If Igbo Traditional Ruler could sell his people for money then, only God knows whether the Nnamdi Kanus and the Uwazurikes of IPOB and MASSOB have not already sold the Igbos and collected money. It is important to tell the truth, and tell it as it is; no matter how bitter it may sound. Only in the Truth can anybody find the Real Freedom. Quote Me! Very Innocent Igbo Men and Women out there, may not know that what actually gave them freedom was the defeat of Biafra. And, other Nigerian Tribes may also not even realize that defeating Biafra and keeping the Igbos in Nigeria was their grave mistake of the 20th Century. Without the Igboman, Today's Nigerian Economy and Currency Exchange Rate would have been much better than what the then enviable Nigerian Economy was during and immediately after the Civil War. Recall that Nigeria never borrowed a single Dime to prosecute the Civil War Successfully, and life was normal inside Nigeria and inside the parts of Biafra liberated by the Nigerian Troops throughout the period of the War. Would it then be just only a coincidence that the Nigerian Economy has trended increasingly down hill with the increasing participation of the Igboman in the Nigeria Affairs from 1970 to date? Recall that when Biafran Troops invade and Liberated the Midwestern Region at the very onset of the War in August 1967, all the Igbo Traders in Onitsha also invaded the entire Midwest for LOOTING, and indeed, looted almost everything they could lay hands on. Colonel Ejoor, the Midwest Governor who was initially loyal to Biafra, fled on Bicycle to Lagos and pleaded with Gowon for help. What eventually ended the looting of the Midwest, was the Federal Troops. NO KIDDING! And, by October 5, 1967, Onitsha Fell to the Federal Troops. So, in all honesty, if a Tribe is that Deadly, would any other Tribe ever feel comfortable with such a Deadly Tribe? Suffice it to also observe that, apart from the small geographical region, the South-East with the few surrounding contiguous areas in Rivers and Delta States, there is no other place on this Planet where the Igbo Tribe or Language can be located, quite unlike other Tribes. So, the other question is; how and where did this my Deadly Igbo Tribe come about, and restricted to just that small enclave only? The only people on this Planet that I have seen behave and live like our Igbos, and are as lacking in a sense of direction as the Igbos, is the African Americans in the USA. And, it is not a coincidence; courtesy, the Chukwu of Arochukwu Long Juju. MAKE NO MISTAKE ABOUT IT, I'M A FULL FLEDGED IGBO MAN. I am only being honest to myself and to my fellow Igbo Men. And, all I have stated here is as they happened or have continued to happen. No Exaggeration. If all I have stated here did not or has never happened, let anybody controvert and cite evidence to the contrary. Lastly, and Importantly, from what I have grown to see and observe of my Igbo Tribe, if any Igbo Man is unable to live with Men of other Tribes and thrive in the Country called Nigeria, that Igbo Man also would be unable to live with other Igbo Men and thrive in a Country called Biafra.

scholes0: And funny enough, Edo IGR is 4 Times that of Ekiti the Yoruba state with the highest number of phantom professors! ![]() And only Ogun in SW bettered Edo. This is a proof of the fact that Edo is higher than Yorubas. Indeed this shows that Oduduwa the progenitor of Yoruba race was actually an Edo man, and that Oba was indeed an Edo man. Edo has historically been ahead of SW, now see why the rejected being under Yoruba subjugation in Western region, but instead sought for and fought for the establishment of the Midwest region. 1 Like |

Well sorry to burst the bubble of haters but Lagos state is in the SW and the scale of revenue generation was done by Yoruba administrators. At the time the Federal Government left if 1991 Lagos was impoverished.In 1999 Lagos was generating 600 million a year and then Tinubu came in. and changed things around. To al large extent Lagos has been transformed since 1999 and is a more progressive state. The real questions must be asked of states like Delta,River,Akwa Ibom and Rivers .They could have done a lot better considering al the money that has passed through those states since 1999. Those states alone could have funded a National carrier.Ultimately the ability to generate revenue is a reflection of employment and when some states have no jobs their people migrate and develop other places. What I find puzzling and encouraging is the performance of Kwara and Ebonyi ,those two for me are the shining stars Finally we need to fight corruption.It is only when corruption is at a minimum that taxation has credibility 1 Like |

inlandtaipan:Seaport Tax? What is that? Is there a factory in Nnewi that makes illiterates? In 1999 before Tinubu Laagos IGR was was 600 million. Presumably the seaport was there then. The truth of the matter is the Eboe imports are more of a nuisance than a boon. We don't want them in Lagos. Lagos generates so much because of Tinubu's vision and blockage of leakages which Fashola built on. Eboes are a truly bitter people. The real question is why their own government does not generate as expected in Abia and Anambra. What I will say to thinking men when interpreting these figures is this.The figures can mean one of several scenarios e.g a state may generate double what it declares and the politicians steal more than half and declare less or that they genuinely are not generating.I am not saying that is happening anywhere but in Nigeria it is more than likely even in Lagos. Leaving that to one side why is generation so low in Anambra and Abia compared to what one would expect as we all know that Onitsha market is the Largest in the Milky way selling thousands of drones yearly to the US Army 4 Likes |
