Some time ago in Lagos

totit:


Dey deceive ya self. Ok

We all know Ebonyi and Aba.
And yes you are not far from the truth when you talk about these area occupied by Ibos in lagos. Mind you? Nigeria is a developing country

Am from EBONYI currently staying in Lagos, oshodi
and my brother has shop in idumota

stzy:
am like dude are u saying ondo state and edo state shares no boundaries n hey have travelled 4rm Akure 2 Abj b4... Well I was talking about a route 4rm Akure 2 Abj n a town I found dat pinched my concciousness... And hey hav u crossed 9ja bridge b4 or east- west bridge 4rm south south... U spent ur whole life in red cities of d west dat lavished huge federal presence and have guts 2 compare it 2. Self sustained super eastern cities

Your correct you can bust out of akure to auchi which is in edo then hit lokoja


Your correct ..I know that route well

scholes0:
lol, does SE Have cities?
The only things in SE that come close to actual cities in SE are Onitsha, Enugu and maybe Aba....
The rest are Villages and towns..... Even Enugu was the idea of Oyinbo, while Onitsha grew into its current size given its vantage position at a headbridge.

Gave you been to Owerri and Awka lately ?

DiademSh07:

You are too dull!
You implied that you entered Benin through Akure which is impossible! There are still about 4-5 towns after Akure before you get to Edo except you go through Ore road!
That already confirmed you to be a liar!

when u argue with a dull yoruba boi his lack of sense wiill make him talk js bcoz he has 2 talk.... Initially I said "when travelling 4rm Akure 2 Abj there is a town jst b4 Edo state" .. 1st u get pass owo and d rest... Its only smbdy dat doesn't knw road will get 2 Ore b4 going 2 Abj... So hmm I didn't even read ur name -recieve sense n comment appropriately and for ppl using landmass 2 judge allocation its done by population pls... If its by land mass lagos will get ntin while Niger state will b getting d largest... To all yoruba boiz wif low IQ. Receive IJN....

Lol. For you mind. The SouthWest is about 3 times the size of the entire SE -- Oyo state alone is the size of Anambra, Abia, and Imo state combined. Ditto Ogun and Ondo. And even some of our cities are as big as your states in Landmass. We have cities that are centuries old and still standing for posterity. It's no secret that the SE is the smallest and therefore the most densely populated region in the country with serious population pressure challenges, which explains why you all have to migrate out of your enclaves in masses and need to rebuild your leveled buildings after the civil war. How big are 'developed' Aba, Owerri, and Enugu? The developed section of Enugu encompasses but a mere 2 local government out of 17, same applies to Imo state, where Owerri is the only 'developed' town. Aba is nothing to write home about. These 'developed' areas of the SE can't be any bigger than Ikeja in Lagos. #FACT. Ibadan city alone is as big if not bigger than some SE states. I have attached pix of Ohafia in Abia state with brown roofs that make Ibadan's look regal in comparison. Yinmu.

same excuses you give when they say Ghana economy is better than ours

How many local government is in Ibadan and akure

Oga lets call a spade a spade ...east is far developed than west..it is obvious


The problem is that you guys don't travel ..you assume that all is well in your state

crownprince102:

People with the right senses wont neglect their fatherland for a foreign place.


Igbos own landed propeties in abuja and yet u want Biafra. Igbos are really confuse

Poppycock! You all feasted on this thread, gunz blazing, hoping to have a field day talking shyt about the same region that is host to your armies of destitutes all over the SW region. You bold o, sitting there talking about SW people and poverty in the same sentence, compared to your nomadic ethnic group. Last time I checked, Igbo traders are in every nook and cranny of the SW region, selling their wares and coming in droves as economic migrants. We gave you all a market, bigger, more robust and better than anything you can match in your region. That is why we are your preferred destination anyday! Who are those buying from your traders? No be we Yorubas? Y'all invade our region coz you know we have the spending power and moola to buy your goods, without which y'all would be bankrupt! # FACT.

Go to the Agric section of this forum and see what young and energetic SW youths are doing in Agric, making more than your traders can only dream of. Just coz we don't make as much noise as y'all don't mean we're stupid. We're just silent achievers, that's all. Yinmu.

Claiming Igbos troop to SW is a half-truth. Igbos troop everywhere. You claim Yorubas are the ones who patronize Igbo traders. Again,this is hugely inaccurate. In the big markets of Lagos,when it comes to big spending,Igbos form the majority of the "big" customers,this is because most Igbos in Lagos are usually comfortable or quite rich,though ofcourse there are few miscreants. There are rich Yorubas ofcourse but most live below the poverty line,these are the ones that are usually very "pained" by the seeming Igbo domination. Infact these facts are glaring,it's not difficult to hear statements like "the Igbos are the ones developing Lagos". Lemme drop the pen here.

People will come here to twist facts and misinform people. Misinformation is a very punishable crime!

NakedEve:



lol. I am not a Kano Indigene so go and die.
I am a Middlebeltan and my place is so fine thanks to foolish Yeebos who built up our place for us

You call them foolish for developing your place? Comments like this are mind-bending.

Yinmu. Are you making sense to yourself? Like seriously. Most Igbos in Lagos live in the ghetto areas of Oshodi, Ajegunle, Mushin, Olodi Apapa, Festac and other low-income areas. The Posh parts like Ikeja GRA, Ilupeju, Lekki, Magodo, Ogudu, VGC, Ikoyi, VI, e.t.c. are predominantly Yoruba enclaves. #FACT. And your folks are either traders, Okada riders, or Gala hawkers in traffic. #FACT. What about the Igbo traders outside Lagos and in other SW states, cities and towns? Who patronizes them? Ghosts? Go to Ogbomosho and see swarms of them, ditto Oshogbo, Akure, Ibadan, e.t.c, including remote villages. These people only visit their states of origin during Christmas. Now, if as you say, "most [yorubas] live below the poverty line", why are your Igbo traders flooding our major towns and cities to sell their wares to such poverty stricken people? I'll tell you why. It's coz they'll die of poverty if they had stayed back in the East coz there's no money to be made in the East -- and it's the same reason they all refuse to relocate back to your region. Most of your wealthy folks made their money outside of the SE, all thanks to the spending power of non-igbos who patronize their wares. #FACT.

I taught you didn't know stuff hence I volunteered to enlighten you. Now,I see you're just being sentimental which is the almost same as being emotional. I don't engage in emotional back and forths,it is folly. Good day

Have you been to Igbo villages to see what structures we put up there. For your information, before an Igbo man builds a mansion on Lagos, he already has an edifice in his village.

Attached is one in my village
