Stress comes from trying to do it all on your own. Frustration comes from wanting God to do it all for you. Progress comes when you do your part and have faith that God will do His. Don’t remove God from the picture. But do not remove yourself too! God works with you! He will not do it for you. That is a religious lie!

Lagos Is Not Responsible For Your State's Poverty. Do Your Nepali Protest In Your State

Please fact-check me. The port in which the Nigerian government has invested the most money is Onne Port, not Lagos Port. Onne has seen twice the investment that Lagos Port has witnessed.

In fact, Rivers State has two major seaports: Port Harcourt Port and Onne Port. Onne Port alone is responsible for 65% of Nigeria's maritime export.

If Lagos is rich because of ports, then Rivers State is meant to be wealthier than Lagos going by that flawed logic.

Lagos State is neither a parasite to the Federal Government nor impeding other states.

The biggest investments in Lagos are not made by the Federal Government but by the Lagos State Government. Good governance at the state level is why Lagos is prosperous.

For example, the most expensive infrastructure in Lagos is the $21 billion Lekki Free Trade Zone. The Lagos State Government built it. Because of that infrastructure, Alhaji Aliko Dangote chose Lagos State as the site for his $19 billion Dangote Refinery, which was built at the Lekki Free Trade Zone.

If your state had built a Free Trade Zone instead of waiting for the Federal Government, it, too, would have had powerful private sector investments.

The next most capital-intensive project in Lagos is the $6 billion Eko Atlantic City project. It was built by the Lagos State Government along with their private sector partners and is now the most expensive commercial real estate in Africa.

If any state government wants, they can do something similar. Eko Atlantic City was built on land reclaimed from the ocean. Many states have land, but they do not build new cities. You cannot blame Lagos for their lack of vision.

The next most capital-intensive project in Lagos is the combined Lagos Blue, Red and Green lines, worth $5 billion.

Again, Lagos State built this alone, without Federal Government participation. And any other state can do the same. That they refused to do so is not for lack of money or land. They have not done so because of a lack of visionary leadership.

Lagos generated almost 50% of the total VAT generated by Nigerian states at ₦2.78 trillion. The South-West geopolitical zone, as a unit, contributed ₦3.11 trillion in VAT.

Yet, Lagos only got back ₦460 billion, only 16% of what it contributed.

Rather than being the source of your state's poverty, Lagos is the reason for your state's prosperity.

Lagos State pays its workers above minimum wage and does not owe salaries.

Where else in Africa can you find a metropolis that will accept your children into its public schools without first checking whether or not you pay state and local government taxes? Where else will you benefit from state-subsidised railway services that crisscross the state like the red and blue lines do? You can leave your village anywhere in Nigeria and go to Ikeja General Hospital, where you will see a doctor, courtesy of the Lagos State Government and the late Mobolaji Bank Anthony. 

Not only has Lagos been paying above minimum wage to its civil servants, but the State Government does not discriminate in its hiring policy. They have Hausa, Igbo, Ijaw, Efik, Tiv and other civil servants in Lagos. As we speak, there are free soup kitchens in every local government of Lagos serving free food to whoever walks in, whether or not they are from Lagos.

If you want a Nepali-style protest in Nigeria, #StartFromYourStateofOrigin, not Lagos.

For Yoruba is not bound by land or map
it is spirit, it is breath, it is our heritage, a heritage too vast to contain!

If I weren’t Yoruba, I’d be jealous too!

So the poor can afford to pay between N277,500 to N300,000 for a US visa that is not guaranteed to the US government to keep building US

but can't afford N100k on which the visa will be attached to Nigerian government to rebuild Nigeria

Who swear for us abeg 🤷🤷🤷
