Asari is not the issue, those who give him platforms to run his month are the problem. why won't he be bitter & battered, NO FREE MONEY, NO MORE FREE ACCESS TO ASO ROCK, All these means bad market for him & his likes. He is like a pig inviting you for a dirty fight!!!!

Statsocial:

Yet lag contributes over 40 billion of vat to the same federal purse. So lets assume Lagos is only collecting 9 out of its 40 billion. It simply means receiving less than it contributes.

40 billion is an understatement.

heaz:
why are the so called "graduates" the worst peddlers of tribalism. why can't any issue be addressed in nairaland for what it is without trashy tribalistic comments. smh

If you abhor tribe please kill yourself. You are not born a goat.

Freemancipation:
Lagos is is the most indebted state in the whole of Nigeria. FACT

Let igbos move out and chicken yansh will open.

You have been saying this for a while,move out of lagos and behold how crime free with robust economy lagos will be,U these people have been saying thesame to the north,not until u were asked to leave and u started begging for unity by fire by force.leave lagos and other SW states,go and create your biafrau.d state and see how SW will flourish economically,b4 the advent of oil,we are making good cash from our cocoa and our region was viable economically more than any other regions in the country.So what is all these noise about?

Otedola alone probably pays more tax than all those congregation of spare part and okrika sellers littered all around dirty markets in lagos.

I am actually suprised you limited your claim to 50%. 99% would have been more appropriate . Evans people dem.

ote gini that oil thief?

What does private citizens have to do with government agencies? Did you just say this? There's a place called Silicon Valley in the USA that controls 80% of the INFORMATION SYSTEMS TECHNOLOGY for HOMELAND SECURITY. There's a company called Berkshire Hathaway along with a couple other companies responsible for mos insurance laws in America. It is only those with low business acumen that would say private citizens have nothing to do with government agencies. Why can't rich businessmen put pressure on their representatives to bring development to their communities? Must everything be so difficult in this country! The problem of closed seaport could have been fixed by 3 different presidents now but it hasn't, this tells you it has nothing to do with tribes but the wealthy people in those areas refusing to invest in their communities and rather putting all their resources in the development of Lagos. You are right about one thing, all Nigerians are suffering from the lack of seaports and it would be beneficial for everyone but make no mistake this has nothing to do with marginalization but lack of leadership and true patriots of the Niger-Delta areas!

and you're liking America to Nigeria, a place of naturalised oddity!

In Nigeria private individuals or firms do not make the rules. The body in charge of ports in Nigeria is the one and only Nigeria port authority (NPA) not even state government can meddle in this.
Everything, from airport, to seaport and railway system is Government exclusively. Not in America where Government lias with private institutions in research and partnership. The only times Government here are prepared to collaborate with private institutions is in double taxation of the citizens.
I believe the systematic neglect of other ports in the country is a deliberate move borne out of propaganda and fear of the unknown.

You are still making the same mistake, thinking business men are not active godfathers and players in government! There's no systematic marginalization anywhere, if such a thing happened then GEJ should be considered a betrayal, all the senators and house of Rep members from the South South and the South East are traitors. Why are we so afraid of the truth in this country? It is easy to play the victim card but it only takes a look inward to realize we have all been SCAMMED! The Seaports favors all Nigerians so what sense is there to close them just to spite a group of people? This is nothing but the work of WICKED and CLUELESS governments! We have had Yoruba, Hausa and Ijaw as presidents and none of them fixed it so excuse me if I don't see the marginalization here!

Please can you screen grab that lauudate post where he is begging the yorubas for accommodation in their phantom Oodua republic.



The post is on page 15/16 on that Oodua plan thread. My fpne can't screen grab.

Thanks

Who listens to buffoon that built school in Benin republic with his brethren struggle.

You are a liar! How do you know that lagos is always empty when you go back to your land on december?
For your information, many yorubas also go back to their states during this time.
Be deceiving yourself. When Nigeria splits, you will know that we dont need your worthless asss.

You lie bro

jstbeinhonest:


Stop lying boy, The airports, seaports and their agencies are owned by the FG.

Lagos does not earn any tax from them.

Lagos state earn revenues in seaports situated in her land in royalties, duties and indirect taxes

Even the Lekki Deal sea port that's undergoing, Lagos has 18% stake while the federal government represented by NPA has about 50%.

It is never compulsory to comment with tribal emotions overwhelming your cognitive abilities.

No be by force!

laudate:

Shuo! Why are you jumping to conclusions again? And when did I say I was Nupe or Igala? It appears as if you guys are stalking me all over Nairaland. Thanks for making me feel so important. And for the very last time, I do not make negative comments about Nd'Igbo. I merely point out their folly. Now if you feel there is a heartbreak story anywhere (only God knows where you got this thought from!) please share it with us, in chapter & verse, o!

And this love you have for TimeMod1 is really heartwarming. Keep it up, biko! Hehehe.....the guy has stopped responding to you, but you are still calling his name. The guy never told you that he has any other account, yet you are insisting on it. Why? What is this, if not love?

No one was stalking you; I happened upon the thread and saw that you were up to your usual antics. The only reason I didn't say anything then was because it was a thread about Yoruba people and so had nothing to do with me. Unlike you, I try to not get involved in other people's business.

Your hatred towards Ndigbo is legendary; it's even gotten to the point where almost every Igbo poster that's been on here for longer than a month knows that you are an Igbo hater. It's nice that you feel that me giving you a bit of attention is making you feel important- I guess I have that affect on some people.

Nonaira1:
That's a well known f2king fact.
Why do you think they destroy every attempt by any oil companies HQ that makes plan to move back to SS.

Lagos to me is the biggest leeches. If yoruba so believe that they solely made what it is as they claim, why is that rest of SW looks like a piece of sh1t whom the government have to treat like an IDP camp.

Let's test a theory, let every oil company HQ migrate back to wherever they drill their oil from. Close down every non yoruba companies in SW and have them return back to each region they hail from, then let's wait and see the progress of Lagos.

Do u know amount custom generate from lagos port, despite the low price of crude oi in international market, the govt was able to get meaning money from IGR,
Also federal goverment starved Lagos state government of money during obasanjo era because fight between obj and tinubu, guess what lagos was able to pay salary and executive elephant project. So I don't know why you guys are talking as if you've forgotten history. Well I don't blame u because u don't have anything upstairs

If you hold GEJ responsible for not fixing the mess after staying in power for 5 years, are you exempting those whowho let the other seaports rot for decades?

Now that's hypocrisy and double standard!

The use of one seaport in Nigeria is a fallout of a flawed federal system which has become centralised. And it's a deliberate act.

Nigeria loses billions daily for using one sea port.

Is it not shameful that cars are cheaper in midget African countries with just 12 milion people? When Nigeria with nearly 200 Millon rely on countries like Benin and Togo for cheaper product?

So,its yoruba that is hating again not asari dokubo the ijaw muslim?

Stop accusing everyone of hate. We are not all like you and your IPOB crew, that thrive on a diet of insults and bile. And if you did not think I was important, you wouldn't have been monitoring my posts all over NL, and calling my name at the slightest opportunity. Drop the pretence.

And kindly stop generalising. List the names of the Igbo posters that have been here for longer than a month who know that 'Laudate' is an Igbo hater to use your own words. It is all part of the propaganda being flung around by your IPOB crew, in order to score cheap points. By the way, what is the proportion of your so-called Igbo posters, out of the entire Igbo population on NL? 10%, 20% or 50%? Did you conduct a census to arrive at this observation?

Finally madam, I am not your crush TimeMod1. Do you get a high from stalking me? Talk quick, make we know how to treat yah case!

deomelo:



Why not first ask yourself what Nigeria was living on before oil was discovered.

It was cocoa, rubber, ground nut and so on.

Oil did not industrialize Lagos or built all the industrial estates in Lagos, they were built with cocoa and rubber money before oil and before Independence.

Instead of crying wolf over nothing, you should be asking the the loud mouth terrorist and their leaders like ibori and Alams what they did with their allocations, derivations, NDDC, amnesty billions and so on.


Before oil, the SW was ahead and so it shall remain even after oil.

EXACTLY,

HAVE THEY ALL FORGOTTEN THAT WESTERN NIGERIA WAS THE FASTEST GROWING REGION IN AFRICA AT INDEPENDENCE?


ALSO,I OBSERVE THAT THEIR CORRUPT LEADERS ALSO ENCOURAGE THEM TO BLAME THEIR UNDERDEVELOPMENT ON LAGOS TO DISTRACT THEM FROM:

1.HOLDING THEM ACCOUNTABLE FOR THE 13% DERIVATIVES.

2.NDDC PROJECTS ACCOUNTS.

3.MINISTRY OF NIGER DELTA PROJECTS ACCOUNT.

4.WHY ASARI DOKUBO DECIDED NOT TO BUILD HIS UNIVERSITY ON IJAW SOILS.


I have never seen one ijaw man doing all the above.well,one of my ijaw friends just told me that if the federal government grant them full control of the oil that they will start killing themselves.I personally believe the fight will start between nnamdi kanu,asari dokubo and tompolo.

Did you even read my last post? Did you see where I wrote "We have had Yoruba, Hausa and Ijaw as presidents and none of them fixed it", so I don't understand your statement about double standard. You are just making my point for me, even if all past presidents failed, an Ijaw man should have succeeded since the issue hits so close to home. This is why I'll repeat my stance that this is not about marginalization but bad governance, plain and simple!

bounty007:
Yoruba tribe are hypocrite..
they will be the first to shout..igbos are not going with south south..
they will try to divide igbo land.. they ill call igboland landlocked.
they will call igbo land five states..
now e don be for them..they now know say hong kong,Singapore

Igbo calling someone hypocrite.

wonders shall never end.

Don't mind them jare:

The same double standard and hypocrisy they are guilty of.Infact,with GEJ shot at presidency,no ijaw man has the moral justification to blame other tribes for Nigeria woes.

Doing that is "double standard and hypocrisy".

wristbangle:


USA is the most indebted country in the world after which China follows yet they are the strongest economies in the world.

Owing debt is not the issue but when you have enough collateral to cover up in case of emergency yet sustainable and also enough liquidity to offset the debt within a particular period, then we can say such economy has high liquidity ratio just like lagos.

The major concern should be region with high debt but no resources/collateral/liquids to service their debts within a stipulated period.

FYI, tax/revenue from sea ports in Lagos is accrued to FG account and if restructuring occurs, we know these revenue will go to Lagos purse. So tell me how Lagos without oil won't survive. This alone is just one of few examples to clarify the fact that lagos is a different league on its own.

Oh! Have u heard of the ongoing construction of Eko Atlantic/Smart cities, refinery, monorail and other gigantic projects which will enrich the tourism/industrial/commercial benefits of the state?
