MrsNgoziKalu:


Lol! As usual, they will shift their goal post to chestbeating, but they have nada on ground to back up their points. In your life and your next next life, you will not go, experience or travel to where i have been to either in Nigeria, Biafra or outside the shores of the country.
Consolation is allowed to feel good you know Onitsha that one can view all the Skyviews of the TOWN with his/her bare eyes while standing on Niger Bridge. As for Enugu, the developed part is not upto 15Kmsq. And both town are the most developed. You lots always bring others down to prove your points, but reality always prove otherwise. Thats how one dimwit claims that one uncompleted building in a villa in Anambra is the tallest in SS/Se

If you can view all the skyline in Onitsha from Niger Bridge and have been to PH and still maintain that PH is more developed than Onitsha in structural development, then you are living in self denial

Yorubanews:


With all the oil money that SE gets, how come they can't replicate Lagos in the SE?

How come SE continues to lag behind in human development index?

The stats shows why people prefer living amongst Yorubas than Ibos.

If Nigeria make Enugu the capital of Nigeria, and invest Nigeria collective wealth in it, like they did in lagos for more than 30 years and currently doing in Abuja, Enugu will look like Lagos and Abuja.

Yorubanews:


How come the SE is always lagging behind the SW in human development index data?

Because of Lagos that has about 50% Igbos stake in all area of its development

Yorubanews:


Lmao...... Lekki/Ikoyi/VI/ the Eko Atlantic/etc were small huts during the times you mentioned. Go read your history books.

British built Nigeria for all, but Yorubas made Lagos a mega city. You had Yorubas from all over the SW moving to Lagis and developing it.

It is only living in self denial that will make a person to deny the fact that making lagos the capital of Nigeria, and building it with Nigeria collective wealth as Nigeria is doing to Abuja now is what make Lagos what it is now. Without making Abuja the capital of Nigeria and investing Nigeria oli money in it, Abuja wont be developed, the same goes to Lagos, you continue to live in self denial and beat your chest.

MrsNgoziKalu:


Lol, which onitsha? which Enugu?
You are ma.D for that statement.
inshort don't ever quote me again.
Shove your lies in your brothers anus

Most Yoruba like you dont like to travel, when you hear about PH,you may think that it is a big city, PH is a small town to compare with heavy infrastructural development in Onitsha and Enugu. PH only have Aba road and GRA area and that is all

Yorubanews:


I blame Yorubas for keeping mute when Ibos began these small lies.

Tell them to replicate Lagos in Anambra. Tell them to force Yorubas to move their businesses to that erosive region.

The British from 1851 and Nigeria from 1960-1991, build Lagos for all Nigerians, all Nigerians have a stake in Abuja and Lagos.

Yorubanews:


Lol when they fail at a rebuttal, they hang on to a delusion. This is why Yorubas will continue to be successful in politics. No man's first name is Yoruba.

Oya go and eat.

that Lagos is not only indigenous to Yorubas, Egun and Ijaws are also, Lagos was former Benin Empire territory, developed with Nigeria money from 1960 to 1991, Abuja is receiving the same development not from oil money, after Gwari people will be telling us how their handwork developed Abuja.

MrsNgoziKalu:



Lol

Na today? since they migrated down to africa from israel, they have been helping people build their cities, but they have never had the time to build at least one in the place they are from. Lets be sincere with ourselves, which city in SE is in the league of Abj, Lag or PH?

Abuja and Lagos is no man's land, developed by Nigeria, in of development you cant compare PH with Onitsha or Enugu

Yorubanews:


Who is afraid to let Ibos go? We're holding on to the SS until oil dries up. Ibos are inconsequential.

Last I heard, it was 99% stakes. What's the pride in leaving all your assets in another man's land while your region looks like dump? When Nigeria breaks, they can take their assets to Iboland.

Lmao. Yes you're helping to push our crime rates up. Most of your criminals don port to the SW to make more money.

Why do Ibos always claim the hardwork of Yoruba man?

Lagos is no man's land

Yorubanews:


Don't mind them. They love lying to themselves. Lagos is Yorubas hardwork.

Onitsha- biggest market innigeria - can't come close to Lagos.

Abuja - capital- can't come close to Lagos.

The same way Abuja development is Gwari people hardwork., continue beating your chest on Nigerians collective effort.

Yorubanews:
Did anyone really expect SE to beat SW? All their noisemaking starts and ends online. SW will always be the Nigeria's golden egg. Why should Yotubas move to poverty ridden SE?

Even with their miracle centers, they're still behind the SW

Why is Nigeria too afraid to let them go, SW you are taking about have about 45% stake by Igbos, expecially in lagos and that is helping to push the statistics of SW up.

Hypocrisy is the problem of SW, the threatening of Ijaws in Lagos by ODU is a sign of cowardice, are Ijaws living peacefully in lagos the Niger delta Avengers militant that is threatening to bomb lagos, during the Mile 12 killing by Hausa-fulani they made it known to us that they are too civilize to go about killing Hausa-fulani communities in Lagos, but now they have seen a minority tribe they want to flex muscle with, they are suddenly not civilize to kill innocent Ijaws living in lagos., what a life of two side of a coin and two edge of a knife

GEJ deserve the apology if we can be sincere to ourselves. But hypocrisy will not allow some people to it it

Oshogbo , they no dey tell man when hunger wire am well, en go forget sai baba by fire by force

EgunMogaji:


Yes, there is as such as higher out of state school fees in the US until the student meets the states residency requirements.

Please do not argue this simple fact like a typical Nigerian unless like me you've paid these fees first hand.

"What is an in-state resident and out-of-state resident?

The education system in the United States is controlled by individual states, rather than by the federal government. Each state has its own “public” institutions that are run and funded by the state. Funding for these schools comes from the state residents in the form of taxes. As a result, these state residents are able to attend the public institutions at a lower cost than people who are not residents of the state. This cost to the state residents is referred to as in-state tuition. The cost to residents from other states is known as out-of-state tuition."

"
What is the cost difference on average between in-state and out-of-state tuition?

As discussed earlier, each state controls its own public colleges and institutions. Within each state there are many different public universities and colleges, and each institution of higher education can have a different tuition rate. Due to the challenges of varying tuition rates, it is impossible to give a one-size fits all answer regarding tuition rates.

However, the National Center for Education Statistics (NCES) does offer data to allow you to compare in-state and out-of-stated tuition. For the 2010–2011 academic year, the average tuition for an in-state student at a four year public school for an undergraduate student was $6,752. The average tuition for an out-of-state student at a four year public school for an undergraduate student was $15,742. This means that, on average, it cost $8,990 more for students to attend a college or university in a state where they are not a resident.

The following tables show the cost differences for in-state and out-of-state students at the public colleges and universities in Maryland, Virginia, and District of Columbia for the 2012-2013 academic year."

At least they are talking about residency and paying of tax as a yardstick, in Nigeria if your parents is residing in a state he is also paying tax, so the children should not pay higher fees because of not been indigenous to that particular state.

Do Nigerian states have autonomy like USA states, In US a state have it own immigration law, diferent laws and systems etc that almost make the states look like a semi country, they should that in Nigeria also,then that when the states in Nigeria will have right to do so

Fantastically excellent

Nigerians, after they will be shouting one Nigeria, those taking about UK and USA, have dull brain, in UK if somebody travel from Manchester to study in Aberdeen, will Aberdeen school charge the person extra fees because he/she is not from Aberdeen, in USA is there a different school fees for people from different US states,federal government should call those states to order with immediate effect!

OROSUNBOLB:


The question then is why did Ojukwu decide to confront all these 'heavy' weapons with his 'bolt action rifle' ? There can only be one answer- stupidity!

Can Nigeria fight the war without Brittish, , Russians and Egyptian forces and ammunition, it was Biafra versus world powers for 3 years.

1stCitizen:


No mind the mumu. Shehu Alimi a grandson of Usman Dan Fodio, a Fulani conquered the Yoruba at Ilorin while Oba Orhogbua of Benin extended his empire into their heartland in Ekiti, Ondo and even Lagos which was a Military outpost of Benin called Eko (A Benin word)

Dont mind them, the Binis colonize them and the Hausa-fulani institute an Everlasting Emirate in their Land, they came hear taking glory of how Biafra was defeated by combined effort of Russian, , Britisth, Egytian and Nigerian forces mainly northerners for almost three years. Loud mouthed people that cant rescue small Ilorin from Hausa-Fulani emirate empire, and once under Benin empire lordship before British forces rescue their sorry state from the hand of Benin Empire.

papparatzzi2013:


Rubbish talk.

Remove Aniocha and etched from SS now.

Remove Igbo speaking parts of Benue from northern Nigeria.

2 things are very certain:

1. You can never reclaim you hijacked fathers houses again

2. You can never rename Oyigbo again.

Lmaoooo

SE/SS are the same region, No Emirate stool in it, Igbo land is not limited to SE alone, The Igbos in Benue are not under Hausa-fulani Emirate rule like your people in Kwara. Ikwere people are the owners of their land, whether they decide to rename it from Umuokoro to Rumuokoro, It is their decision and their land, they can call it whatever they like, but Hausa-fulani is ruling their land.

papparatzzi2013:


The same way Okrikas colonised you and Yorubas enslaved you.

, Which part of Igbo land, Benin Empire colonization of Lagos and Hausa-Fulani Emirate in Kwara-Ilorin shows that you guys are just loud mouthed cowards

hotwax:


Ilorin is still a Yoruba land hahah..LOLz...nothing to fight for again. Its like telling the Jews to go fight for Jerusalem when they are 60% in Jerusalem.

You deserves FFK apology for dkcing your messiahs'wife....

Go and remove the Emir of Ilorin stool from hand of Hausa-fulani, Yoruba land in Northern Nigeria

hotwax:


Ilorin is a town in Kwara state.

Biafra = Enugu, Anambra, Delta, Imo, Abia hahahahaha


See your life outside.

We Yorubas conquered these states..

you conquered the states but dont have Yoruba stool there, Ilorin is conquered by Hausa-Fulani forever and institute an Emirate that the whole town and villages bow to in Kwara, just like the way the whole town and villages in Osun is bowing to Oni of Ife, so go and rescue your people from Hausa-fulani slavery in Kwara.

hotwax:
[size=15pt]They are nobody claiming to be somebody. And they want to compete with Yorubas.

Yorubas have never been conquered before.

Even British colonial masters stood by and watch when Ibadan and Ekiti people were fighting.

British came for colonialism, they met a war, they saw that their head no dey their, they grab a popcorn and watched the war.

Meanwhile they shamed the Monarch of Benin and other Igbo villages. Arabs and Sudanese Liberated Mujahideens conquered the north through Danfodio.

Nobody and nobody conquered Yorubas. This is not chest beating and issuing ultimatum[/size]

Go and reclaim Kwara- Ilorin from Hausa-Fulani emirate, then come back and beat your chest

papparatzzi2013:


Conquered? Very funny. No Army on planet earth EVER conquered Yoruba Empire. We might lose some battles. It is normal for a warring ethnic group that conquered and won so many battles. Tell us the story of just one battle your forefathers, fathers, and your generation ever won apart from fighting for Adaobi's or Ngozi's hand in marriage, bare chested in your hamlet square.

You do not even know your left from your right. Ilorin or Kwara? Ilorin was the insurrection of the Muslim population (majorly yorubas) against the monarchy. Why is it that up till date, the entire Ilorin is still surrounded by yoruba land with Obas?

Get back to me the day you have liver to renamed Oyigbo or reclaim all your fathers' properties that were hijacked by micro-minute minor ethnicity.

Your forefathers were too lazy and military inept to even conquer a village, hence, you living in hamlets on on gully eroded land.

No wonder you lost 3million souls within 2 and half years. Iraq with 13years of war and modern technology has just lost 500,00 souls while Syria is still counting 470,000 after 5years of civil war.

Even if God decided to back Nigerian State in the war, who cares? That is called international coalition of allies. Are we the ones that asked you not to have allies or to boast that you had the best bow and arrow Army in the whole of Milky Way?

Lest I forget, while Nigeria was getting the of Britain, Russia, Egypt, were you not begging for recognition by Tanzania, Gabon, Israel, Vatican, and US. They all disappointed you because they know you do not deserve their friendship and time.

Loser and conquered slave boy get onboard life.

Lmaoooooooo.

You guys should go and reclaim small Kwara-Ilorin from Emirate Hausa-fulani before beating your chest on how Yorubas defeated Biafrans, as if without Russians, and Britain , will Nigeria be able to defeat Biafra. Lagos was former Benin Empire, Small Binis are your colonial masters before British colonizers rescue you guys from Benin Empire

Some Yorubas as usual taking the glory of Northern soldiers that lost more than 700,000 soldier in Biafran war, That is how they are taking glory of building lagos after Nigeria have finish building, Gwari people in Abuja will soon be taking glory of building Abuja, suddenly now Yorubas have become the ones that defeated Biafrans without the North or British and Russians that work round the clock for three years supplying commandos and ammunitions. Set of Cowards and backstabber's that cannot reclaim small Kwara and Ilorin from Hausa-fulani.

HopeAtHand:


@bolded.. pls just shutup. As Federal capital, the urban planning, the overes, flyovers, interchanges, bridges, networks of roads, infrastructures, skycrapers(nigerian standard) that housed some federal agencies and parastatals, etc were built by the Federal Government. The federal govt, led mostly by northerners developed Lagos in the spirit of one Nigeria. Do not say Yorubas built Lagos, you are not being truthful.

Dont mind them, let them continue to take credit of what they did not achieve, lagos that was developed by white colonizers and Nigeria collective wealth from 1861 to 1991. Lagos is not indigenous to only Yorubas, Ijaws and Eguns are also indigenous to lagos., ODU are making Cowardic threats on innocent Ijaws, why cant they form JTF and go after avangers militants

Karm16:
Lol this thing funny die. Ijaw threatening Yorubaland!! Like toddlers trying to fight an adult. Reminds me of small Edo people always wanting to pick fights with Yorubas who no sabi see them

that Benin Empire are your colonial masters, lagos is a former territory of Benin empire

aljharem:


True Igbos are not like that but the only problem some yorubas (not all) have with Igbos is how they view lagos etc. Apart from that I think Yorubas and Igbos are doing very well together.

We do not kill people because of cows

We do not kill people because of religion

Those are what senseless people do and Yorubas, SS and Igbos are not like that !!!

Politicians are the one causing the major division, Igbos and Yorubas have live together in Lagos and other part of SW, without a single killing of one another , a success story not achievable with Northerners.

lekkie073:
igbos cunningly encroach on other peoples land..how can u explain a situation where one igbo man go carry six of his brothers from village come dey stay for one room for lagos...then they start with selling gala while picking pockets by the way....

They have right to do so because nobody is feeding them in Lagos and or paying their house rent, police is there to do their duty if they are found doing criminal activities, at least they dont carry gun like fulani herdsmen or cease peoples land by force like Northern usman danfodio jihadist movement in western Nigeria that make them to occupy another person land by fire by force.

medpren:


Forget Igbos, At least you have now come to with the political reality that;

1) No eastern vote may go to a yorubaman ever.

2.) The power-hungry north will always will beat a yoruba at the polls. Even if a Dog in daura is on ticket.

We are making progress.

I think we should try and forgive, life itself is a school, I believe that some Yorubas have learn their lesson, as Nigeria stand now the North will continue to rule Nigeria for a very long time as they did in military era. Obasanjo presidency did not favour Yorubas because Obasanjo sees Yorubas as his enemies, because they voted for Olu falae, SE,SS and many part of the North won the vote for Obasanjo. If Buhari step down for Osinbajo in 2019 and PDP produce a Northern candidate , the Northern candidate of PDP will have a landslide victory because all the northerners will vote for PDP in mass plus SE and SS votes.
