What I wanted to do in life but my parents insisted I must complete my education.
If my parents had allowed me venture into biz earlier when my blood was as hot as coal I would be controllin billions now and I can still go back to school to acquire 'white man' education
Now after graduating from the university am still back to business.I go still make the billions sha cos it's in me(as a core igbo boy).

There was a time I went to Nkwo Nnewi and saw an evening school for these boys and was really moved. They were having the best of both worlds. No wonder the Igbos are very good at commerce and industry. Kudos my people

Another BS! The love of business that has taken several Yorubas to Togo, Mali, Ghana before yhe whitemen arrived is now a new thing for some people. Mind you, we abandoned it for education so what is so special about being into it the 21st centurysad. It was a phase we passed through, we might as well venture into it agian when we tire of other thingssad.

I tire of the way you make everything tribal. Why don't you go to Oshodi and ask how much these Iyalojas deposit every day. Note though, their money (principal and profits are not from illegal proceeds)sad. I can categorically say that it started from the western part of Nigeria. In Yorubaland, If a child is not in school, he/she is expected to be under apprenticeship.


Well, if that were true about his future millions why is everyone in Ignoland not richsad.

What about those that hit shortchanged by their "masters"?

It's a well known fact that many "masters" will wait until the 5th or 6th year of an agreed say for example 7 years "apprenticeship" and then come up with a frivolous allegation against the "servant" and hence refuse to set them up or settle them financially and then leaving them with nothing.

It's very RAMPANT with the ibos. This is they key reason why many of their boys and girls are no longer interested in the "scheme".

How can one spend 7 years with no formal education as a "houseboy", "shop attendant", "sales boy" or whatever duties the "master" comes up with and then get chased any with nothing to show for it - no shop, no money and no goods !
naturally they don't Carr much about the settlement but the experience and that's what make them survive

I understand what you mean but experience superseded everything. In every 12 Judas suppose dey na

my brother the thing is such a very wonderful and emotional story,
my uncle from maternal side, told me after the war, he went to onitsha with nothing, he only followed a very popular rich man in our village when he was still 12, the man then was into Beans and rice, the market was dominated by hausas then, later, igbos took over the market, my uncle then went to lagos at the age of 18 started small business around apapa port, where he sells on ordinary table along the street, he then, made, more money and started selling plumbing material, he brought forth many young boys from our village, about 4 of them,one of the those boys is now now a house hold name, he trains my uncle's children in school at all levels, my uncle is doing virtually nothing now, but the things those boys he trained bring to him make him appear like a king, .
They bought cars for him and his wife, his new home in lagos and village, they bring cows to him almost every year..
it's such a wonderful thing, though the thing is becoming very unpopular as everyone wants to go to school, it will be difficult to get someone that will be interested in that booyi again..
am still in the guild. Ur last sentence is contemporary sad part of it.

I don't agree bro.

What's the point in having 5 years or more experience in a capital intensive business such as vehicle spare parts for example without the capital/funding to set it up. That's why some of these boys turn to the "streets" and become hawkers, 419 kingpins, thieves, etc
Re: The Igbo And Culture Of Apprenticeship by NarnieSnyper(m): 2:33pm On Dec 09, 2015
No shots fired here but the westerns should learn from this if they don't wanna go to school.
They just want to stand in busstops and collect money or wait for a rich 'foreigner' in their land to build a house and they'll come for 'owo ile'

Almost every Igboman is rich.. Don't expect a core Igbo man to start flaunting his wealth like the Yorubas does..

I guess you didn't see the part about the apprentice being settled at the end.
