People migrate to where they can find better opportunities, that is why the most advanced countries also attract the most migrants. If ibos are coming to other parts of Nigeria it is simply because they can find better opportunities there.

MrEverest:
Fiction! Fact is when people migrate to do jobs the natives wont do, then they are seeking greener pastures from a disadvantaged position eg Africans or Indians doing menial jobs in Europe & America! But when they migrate to establish businesses or do skilled jobs & employ locals, they are called expatriates! During my NYSC year, I served in the north were I saw people living in abject poverty in very remote places without eletricity, tarred roads & other modern amenities yet I found Igbos owning d best & atimes only deccent groceries, pharmacy shops, eletrical or vehicle spare spare parts shops & you will see d locals patronizing such places with their widows might while d Igbos smile to d banks with their contributions!!

Just negodu ..were Lagos not firmer capital city
Were allocations not given to osun state and ekiti

Awori said that they are not yoloba
Egun has made it clear and we have respected the fact they are not Yoruba
Maybe you would claim Creole now

Go back to your states.osun ekiti and oyo are Yoruba

Leave Lagos alone

Aigbofa:


So, thousands of Nigerian doctors, engineers, nurses and lawyers who are working in Europe and America are there as expatriates because the natives can't do these jobs? Your thoughts are more wacky than I thought.

scoleman:


You are wrong! What about the igbos in Ivory coast, Ghana, South Africa? Does it mean that Nigeria is not progressive, or maybe USA and UK are not progressive since we know them as one of the greatest countries if not the greatest. One thing you must know about the igbos is that we are migrants, we travel to look for opportunities else where, one geographical space is never enough for the igbos, we all are the same in terms of business acumen and hardwork so we tend to seek opportunities outside where you can find less igbos, meaning there is less competition. Don't tell me igbos troop to Lagos alone FYI, there are over 6-8million igbos in diaspora and we contribute largely to the international remittance Nigeria receive.

Don't think there are better opportunities in other places than Igboland, If i may ask, where is the biggest market in Africa ? Is it not in ABA, I've not even added Onitsha, nnewi and the rest. Igbos love competition, but they don't like competing amongst themselves so they travel to other areas where there are lesser Igbo competitors. That is what you call business intelligence.

Wetin concern u if a Yoruba person decide to migrate within a yoruba? No matter hw much u covet Lagos, it will neva bcom an eastern state. If igbos developed Lagos then u guys must av been very foolish to av left ur land to develop other pple's land. U ar cryin dat u want to go to biafra yet 70% percent of u ar still lurking around in the north or west, while d hausas and yorubas u claim ar holdin u dwn ar keeping to their region. You pple shld keep quiet and continue to be d underdog dat u ar in the country!

Aigbofa:


Do a little study on the pattern of migration worldwide, what you will find is that the traffic is always to where the opportunities are. Ibos migrating everywhere can only indicate one thing, there are fewer opportunities where they are coming from.

Incidentally, citizens of the most advanced countries often travel for leisure and then return to their home countries unlike citizens of the least developed countries who often travel either to seek employment or stay for good.
It is what it is, you can't twist it no matter how much you try.

So the are more opportunity here in Nigeria than China that's why Chinese are here ...Oga they are here for economic exploitations.. Saw with Igbo

scoleman:


Hmm, going by your definition, what about the million/thousands of yorubas who are in the UK and US? Does it mean there are lesser opportunities in Lagos/SW

Mr man stop shooting yourself in the foot, you can argue all you want, I've just told you the truth, if you don't agree with me it is fine. Make your point and quit the emphasis, No be by force.

Aigbofa:


Relative to the population of both countries, can you compare the number of Nigerians migrating to the number of Chinese migrating?
And when they migrate where are they heading to? I can assure you there are more chinese going to Europe and America than those coming Africa in general.

AmuDimpka:


Shi t who is talking about relativity here ..I just punctured your lies

Do you know what is called oversea economic expansion

Aigbofa:


If you don't know there are more job opportunities in the U.K and the U.S than Lagos and the S.W of Nigeria then you have a lot to learn, and you should do it in school not on Nairaland.

^^^ Aigbofa's reasoning faculty is TOO WEAK to engage this obvious fact

AmuDimpka:


Well Na mouth you get..but one thing is clear here ..Lagos and Ilorin are not Yoruba land ....if you have the guts to claim it get ready for a showdown

Mile 12 is just sample ...you can claim it on paper but we wey dey ground know how far

Now run back to Oshogbo where you emanated from

Perceptor:

I am frm Abeokuta but I Oshogbo is still my domain! The browns roofs you see in d west is due to d fact tht yorubas were building advanced houses wt corrugated iron roofs wen u pple were still living in huts, even in my village wch is very far frm town, there ar big old story buildings there. I still say it, no matter hw much u covet lagos, it will neva bcom an eastern state. Look for a place to brag wt in ur region and stop broodin on other's egg.

Your schools should be demolished. I weep for the quality of some of the so called "graduates" in Nigeria.

Hahaha, so going by your definition. The Chinese/lebanese/europeans who troop into Nigeria/west africa means that there are lots of job opportunities here than their home country.

You are full of ignorance and it is surprising that you reason this way. What a shame. Smh

Perceptor:

Bhahahahaha... d painful part is dat wen d igbos ar finally granted biafra(illusion) d only thing dat will return wt d igbo migrant is his red cap...bwawawawa

scoleman:


Very weak my brother, And I thought he was a resonable guy, I respect ola, because he was at least reasonable and he sometimes agreed when he thought that it was the truth not minding if it means he licked his vomit but this guy is just something else, trying to defend his slurs against the igbos, going by his reasoning, he thinks Igboland is barren since igbos are trooping to Lagos on a daily basis, therefore there are no opportunities in the East. All I can tell him is "keep wallowing in ignorance" .

^^ You sound frustrated. Why na?
