The Ibos should also feel it. They ganged up with the North to say "NAY" to the bill seeking to grant special status to Lagos state despite their people spreading across the state like wild fire. Payback is a biatch!

The bill stands opposed!

bakynes:

Mumu Afonja parasites you say, Ogun and Lagos has Oil and industrialization hubs, Osun has Gold,Ondo has the second largest Bitumen reserve in the world, what of Cocoa in the Southwest, Ofada Rice in Ogun state. Even the North is not a Parasite at least they are the Agricultural hub of the nation because you lot have abandoned Agriculture for urban migration.

osun has gold. How many we don see, Lagos has oil, but dangote refinery is to get oil from Delta state

F o c oof... Ur opinion does not matter...are Igbo's the only people that killed Lagos agenda? Always diabolically twisting everything

Same way it wasn't only yorubas that killed igbo's agenda. Nothing will change untill we learn from past mistake, apologies when necessary and learn to work with each other to achieve our goal.

And later you tell the South to unite and fight for osibanjo 2019 or Tinubu 2019?? Story for the gods..

The Idiotic Mum wás not wise enough to handle the nagging son. ...now he will cry louder and wake the jealous neighbours. ...Caution....Caution. ...Caution
The scrotal sac is not sac enough to carry load more than the two bean seed! Wake up guys......war drum is easier to beat than dance to.....
Nigerians would not opt for true federalism and would not give justice to all zones! Na trouble trouble you dey find and I pray this is change of heart.

Certainly this is a sign that indeed Nigeria is not a united country. It only shows that the agitation for actualization of Biafra is imminent.

TheAngry1:



You are talking about projects cancelled in the Southeast, Jonathan had six years to correct the imbalance, what did he do? Diplomacy my foot; it was the same Southeast caucus that threw away the Lagos special status Bill. Abeg make we hear word, declare Biafra make all man rest.

Nobody threw away the lagos bill, stop lying,three state in Nigeria where added to it which better and will spread development in Nigeria,if other people flock to lagos now,you people will start shouting that they should go back to their regions,you people want everything to be going to lagos and non to other regions

We will continue to suffer so far people like you that politicians have brain washed to think straight still are around.

ewigmee:
People should be a little diplomatic . Igbos are screaming marginalization round the world , they bring bill for South east development, you kill it. You plan to borrow money for railways across the country and you exclude only South east. Any thing for south east is cancelled .. Believe it or not, you giving the world reasons to believe the Biafran agitators stories.

That's more reason why they should forget Biafra and participate actively in politics. Politics is a game of numbers and some level of deceit and compromise.

Where is anything like that existing stop using lies to advance your cause

SuperS1Panther:
Before nko?

SE actively supported the killing of Special Status Bill for Lagos.

They should calm down and take a chill bottle of coca cola

Bunch of cry babies, they never know a time will come when they need those they look love to hate

tinsel:
Igbos can never thrive in the politics of hatred and always feeling marginalized every time things did not go our way.
Politics is all about accord and concessions.
The other time the yorubas came out with a special bill for development of Lagos. Igbos in the house were in the forefront of people that killed that bill.
How do they want same people to support them this time.
When this bill for Lagos state was killed they took it and did not cry marginalization. Now, we are crying.
We will continue to lose as far as continue to play bad politics.
One thing out people in the south east have failed to realize is that PDP is using politics to destroy the south east. Suddenly people like Fayose, Fani Kayode and that one omokri all have became champions of Igbo cause.

Nobody threw away the lagos bill, stop lying,three state in Nigeria where added to it which better and will spread development in Nigeria,if other people flock to lagos now,you people will start shouting that they should go back to their regions,you people want everything to be going to lagos and non to other regions.
Fani Kayode,fayose,Reno are usual yoruba talkatives,they are champining any Igbo cause but for their personal interest, IpoB Biafra movement is doing so as clearly demostrated in may 30th sit at home.

Igbo need to learn diplomacy, when you scuffle other people's agenda(Lagos Special Status Bill),
you lose friends and support in your time of need.

I will give an honest analysis about the Igbos I don't want anybody to take it as tribalism but the truth.

Igbos need to stop shouting marginalization up and down why are they a major tribe in Nigeria. Are they not a Major stakeholder in the Nigerian project, Nnamdi Azikiwe was at the fore front with Obafemi Awolowo, Tafawa Balewa and Ahmadu Bello to get Nigeria her independence. They should wake up and take hold of the situation in Nigeria and get their fair share in the cake.

Ijaw considered to be a minority tribe are now very vocal and playing their politics right and not crying Marginalization.

Igbos should stop viewing everything like everyone is out to get them, we know the North has a born to rule mentality but we will not allow them to lord over us. We are all equal partners in Nigeria and we will take our share of the cake called Nigeria.

If any politician from Igbo extraction is arrested for corruption, ask yourselves first is he guilty or not stop justifying because some thiefs were left to escape in the past that means we must now allow all thiefs to go. We must start from somewhere if we are to get this country.

I am deeply ashamed. A prosperous southeast is a prosperous Nigeria, yet for some deeply rooted tribalism people do not want this bill. The south east and the Igbos are being marginalized. That's a bloody fact! we are supposed to counter their secession threat by giving them a sense of belonging and development projects, yet this government is making a Kanu a hero everyday. The APC are a disaster, a divisive party. It has never been this bad.

I just want to understand something. Why do South East need a development commission? The Niger Delta that have one, it is to ensure the area is better developed since the country get most of her income from there. The North East that have one is due to the insurgency. What special situation exist in South East to need special attention? What is happening in South East that is not happening in South West, North Central and North West? Thank you to anybody that answer this

You people are very greedy,because another two state was added to lagos special status bill, you people become very angry,what did SW gain in lagos been the only developed state in Nigeria.
In South Africa they have so many developed cities.

Yorubas like twisting every truth. They first voted against 25% derivation for oil producing states in 2005 National Conference. As usual, they have started from the middle to tell fake stories.

SuperS1Panther:

The same way they celebrated when jonathan marginalized yorubas, only for them to start doing the same in this administration.

Agumbankembu:
The issue is that people will tell us to hold our leaders responsible, these leaders have proposed something that will at least make sure all federal roads are built in Igboland, they(others) shouted it down.

There is no fair dealing in Nigeria, none at all.

Little kids thinking, you will get that because ALL the federal roads in other regions has been fixed?

Even Apapa road leading to the nations biggest port is in tatters and nobody in that region is crying marginalisation or hatred.

Why are you people like this?

Kindly provide link or evidence to your claim that Lagos Special Status bill was not thrown away. Thank you

seunmsg:


Why did lawmakers from the south east opposed the bill seeking to give Lagos a special status?

Why did the ibos join the gang up against Lagos state?

What harm will Lagos state special status do to the south east that they had to join the north to oppose it?

Karma is a biatch. They were all insulting Yorubas on that thread, but now crying marginalization. Lol. Serves them right, you cant put off the light of my candle and want to light yours. Never.

Stop deceiving yourself we are not parasites, every region has what it takes to sustain herself, SW is even more blessed than the SE in terms of resources so please shove the parasite idea up your ass.

SS and SW are major revenue earner for the FG.

What does the ibos need the development commission for when they claim there are as developed as the south Westt? What special mineral resources are they producing that is ravaging their land apart from crude oil and coal? It seems they also want the north west and south west to bring their own bills.if they must create it,let it be from their own share of their igr or federal revenues.let the south east fund it and cater for it like the ailing northern nigeria development commission.the only thing the east suffers from is erosion menace and the ecological funds is providing for that.again,the landmass of the south eaztern states is very small which means that they csn easily develop their region faster than even the south west.the various town unions are doing a good job in providing basic infrastructure in ibo land,state govts should support them more.up apc,up buhari

Nobody gang up against the Bill,the bill was modified to add to add three states in it, you people dont want other regions of Nigeria to develop except lagos,if people flock in it,you people will start shouting again.

In South Africa they have so many developed cities.

A single state special status bill you call greedy,
what will you call the 5 states south east development bill ?
Life is about give and take which you people have refused
to accept.
Those who can't see beyond their nose end up biting their fingers.

tinsel:

Our people there were the most vocal opposition against that Lagos bill. They thought they were fighting Tinubu.
Politics is give and take. Knowing they are planning such a bill for the south east, they would have negotiated with the south west group. But in our politics of hate, they did not. The north will always divide the south to get what they want.

You are obviously a scar faced, ewedu guzzling and sneaky afonja, yet you are hiding your identity & trying fruitlessly to pass yourself off as an objecting Igbo man. RUBBUSH!

I don't know why those of us in the south keep saying the north have nothing , the north contribute nothing . That is a falsehood. We all know that more than 70% of the food consumed in this country apart from what is imported is produced in the north. The SE produce northing, the SW little. If the north stop supplying food to the south hunger will finish us. Look at what happened during the civil war, you expected your enemy whom you are fighting with to be the one supplying you food because the biafra don't have food.
You don't realise you gain anything from the north now until you have your own country and realise you can't eat and drink oil.

You are a bitter soul,at least the world is seeing the heart of men that Igbos are sharing the same country with.
