The Obi of Onitsha, Igwe Nnaemeka Achebe, has lamented that while the Igbos have over 70 per cent of their investments outside their homeland, non-Igbos had not deemed it necessary to come to the South-East to invest.

The royal father, who spoke yesterday at the inaugural conference and presentation of a two-volume book: “Igbo Nation: History and Challenges of Rebirth and Development” at Igbozurume Unity Centre in Enugu, advised his people to act on the many good ideas they have.

While enjoining Igbos to think home instead of developing other lands where they sojourn, Igwe Achebe observed that the spread of Igbos and their investments in other lands have attracted them envy and hatred as was seen in the recent Xenophobic attacks in South Africa.

He was emphatic that the Igbos must develop their domain educationally, commercially, as well as direct politicians on how they want to be governed.

Normality:
Obi of Onitsha is an ardent listener of Radio Biafra, he is now using his position and authority to say he hard truth, and it's about time our people start relocating and re-investing home.

Economics!!!!

You site your business closest to your market to take out the cost of transportation and also to be close to then so as to get first hand feedback.

Does the East have the market to sell the business and services they provide to? That is the deciding factor.

If everyone moves back to the east, you will have a cluster and no one to buy then so it is not good.

What market does Ogun have that Abia state doesn't right? Okay...think about this
Abia consumes about 100 tonnes of cement every year and there are two companies producing 110 tonnes already. If I want to start my own cement company will I built the factory in Abia too know there is none in Ogun or the market there is as saturated with cement?

Now do you get it?

If you believe that abia state has enough industrial output to serve the populace, then i can't help you.
Your analogy holds no empirical evidence ,and is at best laughable.

Bossman, you just turned yourself into a sitting duck for Biafrans to play target practice with. Free them please! Lest they start feeling important.

Biafrans, the Obi has spoken, oya make Una begin fall in line. Think EAST. >>>>

Mynd44:

There is also the issue of setting a business where I believe I will have monopoly for a long while. People who set up business don't think tribe when they do. They think of how to maximise profits first before anything else. You need to get tribe out of your head before you get this

And my using Abia was an example.
