Listening to you, one might get the impression that 4 in 10 men in Oyo are Igbos.
Feel free to inflate the Igbo population in Oyo now that it serves your interest.
Also, your selective amnesia will be most helpful when the Igbo political clout begins to grow, at which time you'll claim there are barely any Igbos in Oyo. It's happened in Lagos already.
Anyway, your people love to assume any fair complexioned Nigerian must be Igbo. That's how a Yoruba coworker accused me of being too nice to a client because "he's your brother", when in fact, the fair-complexioned client was Yoruba. cheesy

So you are another one that works in Yorubaland.

Do people in the SE get internet? And don't lie and say that you live in the SE. You have already exposed yourself.

You SW Igbos are funny.

You guys are a funny lot.
A few weeks ago, your people were up in arms against the existence of Igbo-Lagosians, and now you propose an even more expansive entity: SW Igbos.
Nigeria would be much ahead if you all believed that concept.
BTW You didn't need to go to great lengths to prove you're in NYC. You don't quite sound like the typical Yoruba tribalist, what with admitting that there are actually SW Igbos.

There's a grueling tussle here; I can't even let you win at being the victim. The Igbos here also turned tribalists from trying to resist the Yoruba onslaught.
So, it's another Egg-Chicken dilemma.

And poverty cudnt allow u to buy common beans.*smh*

Yes, oyo has a higher gdp dan enugu, the former's economy made by foreign ventures ranging from agribiz to manufacturing; d oyo indigenes contributing a negligible input.
Enugu with lower gdp has richer citizens, a presentable capital, more indigenous industries and other enterprises. Beta villages than ur shanties,etc.

The way you are spilling lies is what made me create this thread.

The bigger an economy gets, the more diverse it becomes. This is simple economics and not a weakness. It is a strength.

Name one powerful country that does not have diverse ownership of it's businesses.

Lastly, the majority of the businisses in the SW are owned by Yorubas. Of this I am sure.

In most economies, the largest employer of labor is the small business sector. In the US, 70% of people work for small businesses. I am sure it is the same for Nigeria, and the SW in particular. That means that the overwhelming majority of SW peeps are employed by Yorubas that own small businesses. And I am talking pharmacies, small law firms, security firms, builders, etc, etc.

If Enugu really only has indigenenous businesses, that means that no one else wants to invest there. This is not something I'd want to advertise.

Yoruba community alleges marginalisation in Enugu
By Emmanuel Nzomiwu, Reporter, Enugu




Yoruba community in Enugu State has cried out over what it described as total neglect and marginalisation by the present Enugu State government led by Sullivan Chime.

The aggrieved members of Yoruba community, who made their feelings public through their leader, Mr. Ade Johnson Adeyelu, regretted that the group which was formed in 1990 and registered under then Anambra State Government had never before now experienced marginalisation in the state.

Adeyelu said that his people voted for state government during the last general election and wondered why Chime’s government has since inception not cared for their welfare.

His words: “We have passed through series of military governors and military administrators down the line to the civilian governors.

Over these years, we have enjoyed some sort of patronage from the government, patronage in the sense that some Yorubas then were given the opportunity to be members of the Muslim Welfare Board. As a result of that they were given one or two slots to participate in Hajj Operations in Medina. From that 1990, down to when Chimaroke became governor, we still enjoyed the slots that were given to the Yoruba community in Enugu.

“There is no doubt we are facing a lot of problems in this state. We have not benefited anything from the present administration in Enugu State. We as a community we have participated in almost all the activities of the state. The last straw that broke the camel’s back was the present Hajj operation, which we recommended people to participate. But up till now, there is no single Yoruba man that belongs to the Yoruba community that was given any slot to participate in the Hajj operation.”

Adeyelu recalled that since governor Chime came on board, he had written about five letters seeking for audience with him, to let his government know the problems of the Yoruba community but unfortunately none of the letters was replied.

He also expressed disappointment that Chime does not care and had not asked leaders of non-indigenes in his state the problems their various groups are facing in the state, just as he regretted that the immediate past administration cancelled the allocation of land given to the Yoruba community to build its secretariat by the former military governor of the state, Navy Captain Mike Agbaje.

The secretariat, he said, would have served as a centre where the Yoruba cultural heritage would have been sold to the people, adding that all the promises of re-allocation of another land to the community made by the past administration, did not yield fruitful dividend until its tenure expired in 2007.

Besides, Adeyelu advised all members of the Yoruba community in the state to remain calm, law abiding and loyal not only to their host state but to the Federal Government as there is still hope for a better tomorrow for them.

am strongly advertising that igboland has d highest conc of indigenous ventures ranging from soap manufacturing to cars!!!
Didnt i tell u igbos r too much?
If u think china is not dominated by chinese ventures, na u sabi
.
On d oda hand, its unarguable dat yorubalanf has non-yorubas contributing d majority of their gdp.
Dey have d highest conc of non indigenous ventures in nig because they are simple non-innovative and lazy.
Hence, other grps of ppl cum there to make more money for demselves.
D next thing, dey wl connive with their govt to think of what to do abt d situation.
But instead of d govt creating jobs to d ppl, they are made to join omo oniles and agberos.
