Forget the whole succession, tribalism and political nonsense. We really need to have more Lagos in the country. Currently only Lagos and Abuja can be regarded as the rich and developed city with plenty of Job oppurtunities in 9JA If we have more of Lagos, it'll greatly help the nation. My advice, goverment should start backing other states (one in each region) so that they can compete with Lagos. Help them get equal oppurtunities Lagos is getting. What do you think? NOTE** TRIBAL BIGOTS SHOULD STAY AWAY FROM THIS THREAD. 4 Likes |

Oyo is the new Lagos, even Ogun state is healthier and Kwara is bliss. Only we who belong to this cartel know. If you don't know, you don't know. Follow who know road ! 6 Likes 2 Shares |

CandidAdmin: This Idea is good But Nigeria is Complicated Once any area starts becoming a Success some human Vultures set in For example do you know that Lagos is just beginning to fulfill the Plan Awolowo laid down for the entire Western Region over 60 years ago was he not framed up and Jailed by his enemies,? It was because his success made them look incompetent Now imagine if Awolowo was from an Ethnic Minority Group would he have not been assassinated ? If someone like Balewa was taken into the bush and shot dead as a sitting President as part of an Ethnic Cleansing Campaign can you see that Nigerian Politics is beyond Calculation There is Ethnic jealousy that is difficult to factor in And you need to get Politics right to be able to execute a revolutionary Economic development In Nigeria at least half of the Politics has strong Ethnic influence and factors For Example a Hausa Man prefers an Incompetent Hausa President to a Competent Igbo President and vice Versa 4 Likes |

They don't hand out development like it is a piece of cake; the same way they don't hand out presidency like it's a piece of cake. The wise ones are always strategic about it. You can't be hostile to nonindigenous businesses, foreigners and expect any meaningful development. You can't be greedy with your land and resources and expect people to invest. You can't sow seed of hatred towards other (before and during election period) and suddenly become friendly only during election period and expect people to support you massively with votes. You want to reap where you don't sow. That is why I laugh when some people support non state actors to forcefully lock their parents and businesses perpetually with "sit at home" propaganda every Monday. They rejoice at the death of Nigerian security men in their region. All this action has future consequences, but they fail to realize. The other day, some staffs of the US embassy were killed in the same region, and you think the event is forgotten just like that? If you have meaningful project going on in your region, won't the federal government support you? The greed and covetousness of "some group" about Lagos state should stop; Also, the looking down on other southwest states should come to an end. I believe the sky is big enough for all the birds to fly without one touching the other. Make your governors responsible by asking questions. Don't just sit down and watch while governments in some regions are embarking on big big projects while your governors are doing nothing; and then later start claiming you develop everywhere or that you're a victim of development. 3 Likes |

UncleAyo: I knew there would be that one person that would bring tribalism into the thread. You claim Igbos sow hate but 4get that we yorubas call hausas Aboki(a derogatory word used to call a northerner). We also insult them a lot. You claim SE is unsafe but 4get killing(skull mining) is now getting out of hand in SW and banditry has ruined the North. You claim Igbos are hostile but 4get hostility knows no race and tribe. You claim Igbos hate Nigeria but 4get that it is due to the fact that they haven't been given presidency. Give them and watch all the agitation die. BTW, why are those people with the "numbers" the poorest in the country? All governos esp. SS are thieves, but you prefer to overlook them. The funny thing is you might have never left your region but you are quick to tarnish the image of an entire tribe... But you expect them not to tarnish yours? Leave tribalism and watch yrself grow. 2 Likes |

[quote author=CandidAdmin post=127132972][/quote] First, You're not Yoruba (stop claiming Yoruba for purpose of credibility). Be proud of your origin for once. Second, the word "Aboki" mean 'friend". It is not derogatory! Third, I did not mention specifically any tribe or region. But we all know where those events I mention are the norms. Fourth, is presidency a toy that is given on platter of gold? don't people work for it? Fifth, I have travelled to most states in Nigeria. I did not tannish any tribe; Stop playing the victim card. Lastly, if speaking the truth to you is tribalism, please face your front and keep going. Our understanding differs. 2 Likes 1 Share |

CandidAdmin: At least 30 % of Nigeria's Politicians use Tribal Politics to remain relevant and when in a very desperate Situation 90% of Politicians will use it for example Tinubu explain the Muslim Muslim Ticket as it was not about Religion but Competence yet this same Tinubu insisted that only a Southern Christian Could be Senate President using the very opposite side of the previous argument that it was only about Competence when he was reminded of how he had Justified the Muslim Muslim Ticket What I am trying to point out is that Nigerian Politics is a Ethnic and Religious tight rope balancing act and Nigeria's Economic dev is a Product of it because those in Power first reward those who put them there |
| Re: I Think I Agree With The Lagos Issue by CandidAdmin(m): 10:45pm On Nov 23, 2023 |
Christistruth03: 30%? More like 90%. But I still stand with laws against tribal slurs, discrimination and so on. |

MEEVEET: It is not by capital. There are other socio economic indices that make a capital successful. For instance the metropolitanism of the so called capital state. |
| Re: I Think I Agree With The Lagos Issue by Christistruth03: 10:50pm On Nov 23, 2023 |
CandidAdmin:I said 30% because I was diplomatic Ok how can Politicians who got into office through the Ethnic Religious Card make Laws and make sure Anti Ethnic or Religious Behavior is Checked when that was what many of them used to Campaign For example Peter Obi's declaration of Religious War? May be if the Supreme Court can fine them N50 Million where such behavior is proven to have taken place |

UncleAyo: 1. I'm Yoruba. You can't strip me off my tribe just becoz our views don't allign. 2. When P square challanged APC supporters to bring out posts that showed they used derogatory word during elections, they brought out the post that P square called northerners "aboki" 3. Yeah right, as if they don't happen in our backyard. 4. Presidency is not a child's play but you gladly gave it to bubu who nearly destroyed the country. 5. You travelled, and every single Igbo man was hostile to you? Give me a break. 2 Likes |

The state governors are thieves, the state indigenes should protest against their criminal state governors in their various states. |

Christistruth03: Honestly, it's almost impossible to stop them. Even 50 million fine won't stop them becoz they are worth more than that. Tribalism and religious bigotry is their greatest weapon and it will be very hard to fight them. |

CandidAdmin: It is called election, and like they use to say: "majority carries the vote". The same you will say "Tinubu did not win but rig the election through INEC"; the same you will still use the other side of your mouth to say that "the Yorubas massively voted for him based on tribalism". Which of the two statements should we accept as truth? You made your choice, why are you angry about the choice made by others. Are you their God to decide who they vote for? The same way your candidate is a saint and Massiah to you is the same way Tinubu is a saint to those that casted their vote for him; why do you think your opinion is superior? Why do you think your candidate is the messiah while Tinubu is just a joke. Look, in democracy, you try to educate people to your line of thinking and persuade them to vote your candidate and not use narcissism and Machiavellian approach to force and coarse people into voting your candidate. On the issue of hostility, keep misconstruing my statements, it shows how very smart you are... |

CandidAdmin:Another one is instant disqualification from standing in Elections if there is proof of them being Ethnically or Religiously divisive May be they should be fined N50Millon and be disqualified from the next two Elections 8 years That can stop it |

UncleAyo: I didn't vote last election coz I know those 3 thieves has nothing but suffering to offer. If presidency isn't child's play but you haven't condemed the misadministration of the previous government, then it's child's play. I'm against singling out a particular tribe. Nigerians get problems but pointing fingers at ond tribe is all shades of wrong. You said the people of that tribe are hostile, you also said you've travelled there before, for you to make such an accusation, it means you must have experienced it first hand. So how did I misinterprete you? Attack LP supporters all you want BTW. 1 Like |
