And since then they've used our resources to build a city to be proud of anywhere in the world. Northerners are not as backward as many southerners believe. 24 Likes 1 Share |

Good decision.... Lagos State would have been for the super-rich alone Next is to decentralise .... 1. Administrative capital (Abuja) 2. Legislative capital (Rivers) 3. Economic capital (Kano) 4. Academic capital (Enugu/Ondo) 17 Likes 3 Shares

Abuja. A city of absurdities. No industries,no notable market or commercial hub but money is flying around everywhere. So many money miss road personalities. Restructuring this country should be the first step in d so called fight against corruption. 46 Likes 2 Shares |

They suppose shift FCT to from Abuja to Ileogbo in Osun state. FCT supposed to be used to develop the underdevelop town in the country It was used to develop Calabar...now a city It was used to develop Lagos ..now a city It has been using to develop a local village called Abuja and its now a City. My opinion though 2 Likes |

The best help thou at the time, it looked like a curse to Lagos but its actually the best thing ever to happened to Lagos, If the Fed Govt had still remained in that town, by now that city would have been something else. Caveat: Lagos still remains Abuja's big sister in all ramification and every sphere of human existence. Economic, Social, Money-miss-roads whatelse, name it 4 Likes |

Abuja, the over-pampered child of a rich father. Where 70% of our wealth is spent but contributes nothing to the nation. The home of the 10% that eat the cake which belongs to 90% in other parts of the country....Mchewwwwwww. Just delete two of its main buildings and their occupants (Aso rock and National House of Assembly) and you have solved 90% of the country's problem 3 Likes 1 Share |
