I want to know which rural communities and villages have the most progressive populace. My progressive I mean sons and daughters working towards the general development of their village. I know many villages in my own Orlu area with individuals that have sited factories, built roads, built schools, and other establishments for the general welfare of their kindred. |

ChrisOD: These used to be villages before the 80 and 90 surge in development. Yes I agree. These are now suburbs with the exception of Nnewi which went from village to small city within 2 decades. 2 Likes |

Op, you can mostly find such communities in anambra and enugu states. How can you find a progressive community in imo when okorocha is chopping all the money and doesn't provide basic amenities like roads, light and water? TA Orji same.

Haven't been to Ebonyi but ebonyi communities are too rural to be termed progressives.please dont just go there,this thread is meant to be educative and inspiring among we Igbos and shouldnt be turned to the usual Rochas bashing and denigrating of other fellow great Igbo States....mind you am Anambra and also pro PDP but ther shld be time for everything. So i put my guess in this order Nnewi,Nneni,Abariba,Ihiala,Osumenyi,Agulu and this is simply because am more familiar with this communities but others may even surpass them. But in education i may give it to these communities though some are cities but am making reference to their own people Mbaise,Onitsha,Obosi,Owerri,Orlu etc 11 Likes 1 Share |

Haven't been to Ebonyi but ebonyi communities are too rural to be termed progressives. I'm not talking about government involvement, rather progress w/o government.

EasternLeopard:yea, okorocha should provide the basic amenities and the communities will do their best. In my village, every male member is taxed biannually for grading of the roads in Easter and Xmas. We have been contributing money since 20 years ago to buy poles and get electricity for d village. Is that what we should be doing? Isn't it the work of govt to provide basic amenities? 1 Like |

Ikengawo: If I am correct One major secret behind their success is the fact that they engaged in micro-financing of long term low interest loans which is direct opposite of modern micro-financing. This leads to financial empowerment of individuals which instills the spirit of socio-economic responsibility in them. Eg Imagine loaning a guy 500 000 loan to be paying 20 000 every month for 3yrs. If the guy do make a profit after expenses like rent and tax of at least 70 000 every month of which he pays his 20 000 loan interest. If that loan gets that guy out of poverty do you think he won't help others My advice to Igbos Let's support community base non collateral long term low interest loans to financially empower ourselves. Then it will be easy for our people to play their role in community development Any community group that fails to engage in micro-financing has not started community revolution. 4 Likes |
