Igbo representation on the list is enough. Our wealth is concentrated...Igbos have the highest concentration of middle class and millionaires than other tribes. This has been proven with statistics...SE is the least poorest region in Nigeria. The wealth gap between wealthy Yorubas and poor yorubas is outstanding....that doesn't exist with Igbos.

I dnt consider most of these Hausa and Yoruba billionaires as real business men. Check how most of them made their money u'll know what I'm talking about. Most of them made their money by looting the nation's treasury with the help of the past military head of state which were mainly Hausa/Fulani and Yorubas. They assign oil blocks to themselves, award government contracts to themselves but most of those Igbo billionaires hustled with their sweat. Without government i wonder what will become of these hausa's and Yorubas making noise cos they're jst too lazy. That is why their politicians see politics as a do or die affair cos that is the only way they can make money.

peppyluv02: A yoruba girl in my aunt's office used a special padlock to lock the AC protector in their MD's office. Whenever the AC is on,the juju spreads round the office and everything said,will be in her favour. Until they employed an NYSC member,who was a papa(leader of pentecostal corpers and a prayer warrior) and a yoruba boy too who noticed it,called everyone in the office,prayed and removed the padlock. The girl confessed and was sacked.
Their MD is also a yoruba man but half German since then he doesn't employ yoruba girls who are not born again.
The office is in Utako not far from mountain of fire for those who think I made up the story. I can tell you the company name too.


So in conclusion, what message are you trying to pass across?
Re: Answers To Common Questions About Igbo People by kennysbst(m): 5:08pm On Jul 29, 2014
honestly speaking I love igbos because we live together in peace and love here in lag.

Av always have it in mind of going into inter tribes marriage with ur sister, and I got involved during my days at laspotech.
The beauty and the beautiful smile on Nkechi got my attention but been a follower on nairaland starting from most respected and late memory of Anichebe write up on this forum piss me off from my grl due to the hatred I got here abt my tribe,I felt am not secure even with d love her family shown to me.

But sincerely she said she will never let go of me because am unique in my own world.Am in love with her truly but how will I cope if the hatred from one tribe to another on this forum translate to very one on the street.

To me on this forum inter tribes e-war started frm point of been arrogant and proud of been superior while other inferior to u.

no doubt u guys are hustler and that got u involved in anytinz that can bring the money to u either good,bad and worst.

Even you,yourself knows that you can never be superior in every tins to others.We all need to be diligent wen expressing our concern on other tribes.


CAN SOMEONE PAY JUSTICES TO THIS.IF U WARE BORN INTO OTHER TRIBES MIST HOW WILL U FEEL WEN BASH TOGETHER WITH THEM.

we are born NIGERIA b4 any tribe.FUNNY enough GOD knows y he created us together.or do u believe he had made a Big mistake creating us together as one Nation.

REMEMBER U WILL NOT BE ASK IN HEAVEN WHICH TRIBE U BELONG RATHER THAN HOW DO U COPE WITH UR NEIGHBORS
