It is more evenly distributed in the East than anywhere else in Nigeria. Igbo women are also more economically, socially and educationally liberated than other Nigerian women.

Robber electrocuted in Ebonyi while trying to loot a provision store

A middle aged man was yesterday electrocuted to death in Ebonyi while trying to loot a provision store located at No 22 Ezza Road Abakaliki.

The man was electrocuted when he wanted to gain entrance into the shop in the early hours of the day through the door but could not succeed as the inner burglary proof door proved too hard to cut open.

The burglar in an attempt to loot the shop, went to the tailoring shop beside the provision store and forced the door open and gained entrance into the provision store through the ceiling.

Confirming the incident the Ebonyi Police Pubic Relations Officer, Sylvester Igbo said that the burglar who went into the shop when there was power failure in the area was electrocuted when the Power Holding Company of Nigeria (PHCN) in their usual fashion restored power to the area.

His word, “This morning we received information that a burglar broke into a shop that is located at No 22 Ezza Road, while he was in the ceiling, of course at the time he went into the place there was no light, while he was in the ceiling trying to gain entrance eventually their was electricity and he was electrocuted.

“When the owner of the shop came to the place this morning and saw that the shop’s doors were damaged she alerted the police who came and discovered that somebody was lying dead in the ceiling.

“The corpse was yet to be identified and has been deposited at Federal Teaching Hospital Abakaliki (FETHA) for autopsy. Police has commenced full investigation to unravel what happened, if he came with other accomplishes and how many people that went with him.”

Mrs Chukwu Virtue the owner of the shop noted that she had lost over N1.8m to the constant burglaries of her shop which she said made her to install the inner burglary proofs.

According to her it has been a long time that robbers have been visiting my shop. This is the eightieth time. So, it was this morning that my younger brother came to open the shop to discover that the padlock to the shop has been cut down but the inner one did not allow them to penetrate so they decided to follow the roof of my neighbour’s shop who is a tailor to my own shop.

Speaking of setting up a business, you know that is what Igbos are good at, right? When your NBS says ''unemployed'', do they mean those not working in the formal sector (civil servants or regular company staff)? Is an Nnewi, Onitsha, Aba, Alaba or Idumota or ASPAMDA business man (99% of whom are Igbos) who owns his own business and travels to China/Dubai/Brazil/ Europe/America, etc every other month be classified as unemployed? You are a joke, you know that, right

demmy:

Yes mister businessman ALL IGBOS travel to China/Dubai/Brazil/ Europe/America, etc every other month.

STOP DELUDING YOURSELF.

Xris74:

Ignoramus. All Igbos are not business people and most who are travel out very frequently. Go check the airports.

4chi: Primitive ibos.you lost the war,lost your bearing and lost the plot. You inferior species,thank God everyday for lord lugard who merged you with higher homosapiens.but for him you will still be living in your rustic primordial villages tying wrapper and tying chiken feathers to your head as a sign of affluence....just thank God that your forebears and yourselves were civilised in cities like Lagos,Ibadan,P.harcourt,Kaduna,Kano even when your primitive ancestors never lived in towns talk less of cities or kingdoms...in a normal setting you all should be eternally grateful ,but your innate primitiveness and deep seated inferiority complex will not allow you so to do.

demmy:

Fool we are talking about poor people. Not rich business people. keep up. Massive number of Igbos haven't seen the inside of a airport talk less of traveling every other month. Wealth is NOT evenly distributed in igboland. If its were it would be Norway.

outofthebox: northerners do it also..igbos also do it..what do you expect? THE YORUBAS DON'T REALLY DO IT. I guess its because of our level of education though.I still insist that let the best man get the job

zanga420: I dont like all this tribal bigotries. But, truth be said the yorubas really have some trickish ways of perpetuating high-level nepotism n corruption. With the little I've witnessed, they are not in the right position to complain about tribal favouratism in this country. The worst is they work to bring a (successful/exceling)competitor from another tribe down with media n other tools they are in control of. This is not a healthy way of competing. They are shouting cos of this little issue, if they are treated they way they treat others I doubt if they can bear it.

NOT ONLY DO THEY LACK THE KNOWLEDGE (Only make believe as they use in their fake businesses), They lack the will and clout it takes to succeed. Fake business, money clamour, Drug peddling, armed robbery, kidnapping, all sorts of crime for money .....etc are not what we need to build this nation. This is all they know and believe. Igbos we know better, we are not fooled by sweet talk.

Who let the dogs out? This is by far the biggest whopper I have read here. But then the op is a nondescript cyber urchin who is in all likelihood holed up somewhere in Ijebu pangolo

4chi:
And another offspring of the primitive clan emerges from his cave and yarns rubbish!! Typical Asiwere that you are,my post did not give you any food for thought .like all primitive Igbos,your unrefined nature is repulsive to civilised societies, and it hasn't changed even with all the relationship you've had with superior species. You lot are a hopeless lot and a menace to decent society

Xris74:

Is this how superior you are? Hahahaha! Superior monkey in Ijebu zoo.

Ojukwu was smarter than gowon so he couldnt do that unlike awolowo your ancestor a dumbass who believed he will be made president and later was frustrated into committing suicide.

You people have not seen anything yet. more fraudulent yorobbers to go. must go. They dont have oil but are all over oil companies in ph. They must go.

Biafra is still alive. die.

geeez:

Not only that. Those Igbos involved in crime in Lagos are those associating with Yorubas. There was nothing like kidnapping in Igboland when IGBOS where not interacting with Yorubas. Our people travelled to SW and learnt kidnappping from them (Gbomogbomo)

Abagworo: The truth is that when others were dulling and depriving Igbo States of funds, Igbos in their wisdom spread across all States and tapped from everywhere while others left Igbo States for Igbos alone. Today the result is clear. For any other ethnic group to rival Igbos in knowledge, they must first travel and settle down at every nook and cranny of Nigeria.

blaqoracle: the igbos are so detached from their history that they can hardly narrate their history earlier than postindependence era. this Is Linked To The Post war traumatic disorder where all their fore bears, who could told them their true origin and history, where vanquished during the war. the Story Of Igbo coming from israel is a fall out of the biafran propaganda machine.

tunnytox:

how many times are you going to repeat the word gbomogbomo? is that the only word you learned throughout your sojourn in Yorubaland? don't tell me that there is no ibo word for kidnappers. So your people leant kidnapping from Yorubas? what a ridiculous statement! and you decided to take it to higher level shey? Only someone with an IQ of a chicken will put up a mo.ro.nic post like the above.
