His Royal Majesty Oba Oluogbe of the Usen Kingdom, a highly respected Yoruba monarch in Edo State, calmly recounts the history of the Usen people, tracing their origins to Ile-Ife and the founding of their kingdom more than 12 centuries ago. Traditional accounts hold that the settlement was originally called ‘Ife-Kekere’ (Little Ife), highlighting its deep cultural and historical ties to Ile-Ife.🤷♂️🤷♂️
Most local government chairmen are now overnight billionaires at the expense of their people.
The federal government is giving hundreds of millions in monthly allocations to LGAs, but Nigerians aren’t asking questions of their LGA representatives. They want the President to come to their LGA and sanction their chairman for them.
They live in places that look abandoned by development itself, yet they come to Lagos lecturing everyone about governance. It’s always amusing how people who have tolerated decades of stagnation suddenly become experts on how other states should be run. 😂
I just love the fact that everyone in Nigeria and Africa now knows who these ibo people are. They’re a very desperate set of people, and it’s hard to see any evidence that their wealth was acquired through legitimate means.🤷♂️🤷♂️🤷♂️🤷♂️
Peter Obi an ibo man that grew up in onitsha,called it ibo
Alex otti, grew up in Aba, he called it ibo
You are trying to set Yorubas up for dragging by saying you called it ibo because you grew up in ile ife!!
You bloody hypocrite!
“As the Ibo say: ‘When the moon is shining the cripple becomes hungry for a walk.”
— Part One, Chapter 2, Things Fall Apart by Chinua Achebe
If Chinua Achebe—an Ibo man who served as the David and Marianna Fisher University Professor at Brown University, the Charles P. Stevenson Professor of Languages and Literature at Bard College, and a professor (later emeritus) of English at the University of Nigeria, Nsukka—used “Ibo” in his novel, who is Mc Lively, a social media comedian, to tell me otherwise?
You all meet Lively @mc_lively_
An id!ot in skit and an id!ot in real life.
I was told most comedians are a reflection of who they are in real life. I thought you would be different, but I was disappointed, you are even worse.
Back to the subject of the matter, Lively, you are not to tell us what to call anyone. You are not wiser than Azikiwe, Peter Obi, or the fat stup!d Illbliss, who have called them by their real name for years “Ibo.”
Lastly, if you so much love the Ibos, please pack your bags and move to any of their five states. At least Yoruba land has made you who you are today, let your favourite Ibo land continue from there.
Thank you.
I knew some Zombies will come and say it's the Deputy Governor that's the "Her Excellency" there, hence I was prepared for that.
Many of you are just daft and you haven't seen a budget of a state before. I know you all are surprised that your "saint mesaya" is being exposed. 👇
"Why are we even having Office of First Lady? My wife didn't contest election, two of us live in the house"
2008 & 2009 budget of Executive Governor's Office: Staff & Personnel Costs.
Who's "Her Excellency" here? "2 Personal assistants"? Collecting salaries @woye1@AmodaOgunlere
🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
There's no Office of The First Lady. Yet his wife was attending functions as the First Lady and also collecting salaries under Peter Obi's office as the Executive Governor of the Anambra state.
Peter Obi is a pathological LIAR.
Dear Chinedu @GRVlagos
I have no interest in descending into the mudslinging and distractions you appear to thrive on. My focus remains on the important work before us - supporting the efforts of the Lagos State Government to ensure the safety, well-being, and prosperity of Lagosians.
If being committed to public service, good governance, and the protection of the interests and heritage of Lagosians is what you choose to describe as bigotry, then I make no apologies for standing firmly by those principles. Public service is not a tea party - but how can you know what it entails? Nemo dat quod non habet.
For the sake of clarity, I would advise you, in your saner moments, to acquaint yourself with my record in public service - from my appointment as Special Adviser on Education to Mr. Governor in 2019 to my present tour of duty at the Ministry of Environment and Water Resources. The record is public, and it speaks for itself.
As for the labels and accusations, I will leave others to judge them on their merits. I have no intention of engaging in personal attacks or trading insults with a political nomad driven by ignorance and needless hatred.
I wish you all the best.

A little riddle:
I governed one of Nigeria’s most commercially active states, yet left it relying on FAAC for about 80% of its revenue.
I celebrated savings but did not build a sufficiently broad tax base, a tax-compliance system, or a productive investment pipeline to reduce that dependence.
Who am I?
