i've been going through nairaland and I've noticed that generally many Yoruba's believe IGOBS ARE RUNNING AWAY FROM THEIR REGION (erosion ravaged) TO LOGOS and that IGOBS CAN'T SURVIVE WITHOUT LOGOS
the first claim is false while the second claim maybe 20% correct but not for only Igbo's but for Nigerians. Nigerians depend on both Lagos and abuja for political and economic survival as both are center of unity and excellence .
Igobs are not only in Lagos but also in abuja , According to formal FCT minister Igbo's own 50% of landed properties in Abuja. Igbo's are the largest minority tribes in Lagos and Abuja and are also found in multitudes in other parts of the country (not only in Lagos) and the world more than any other ethnic group in Nigeria . In fact, they contribute to more than 50% of Nigerians in Diaspora. IGOBS are the most migrant African tribe ,World census accounts Igbo's as have a worldwide population of 70 million whereas with Nigerian census they are said to be 40 million , then where are the other 30 million Igbo's are they all outside Nigeria? even if those census are not exactly accurate, it is not far from the truth because Igbo's just like the Jews has spread all around the globe and some have blended to foreign culture or have intermarried thereby making it easy for them to remain outside their region. in general, Igbo's find it easy to adapt to foreign culture, environment and language. Igbo's speaking non Igbo languages are more than non Igbo's speaking Igbo languages ,this is because they know for them to succeed in businesses or whatever in Rome they must behave like the Roman's.
this misconceptions maybe due to the fact Yoruba's travels less than the Igbo's and cannot blend as the Igbo's do.
if you say Igbo's are running away from SE to Lagos
1) Why is it that SE has the highest population density in Africa
2) why is it Igbo cities are 97% of Igbo indigenes
3) are those indigenous companies in Onitsha and Aba owned by Yoruba's (innoson and co)
4) Those Aba made ( made in China) shoes,bags,clothings are they produced by Yoruba's
5) maybe those spectator in Enugu stadium where also Yoruba's .
They are running to Lagos to get 2*2 shops, but why is Aba mall the largest in Africa and ariaria market the second largest in WA .
for the fact Igbo's dominate Alaba international market or computer village does not mean they are running away from SE , pls Yoruba's should visit Jos , calabar , pH ,kano ,Togo, Benin, Maiduguri et al and see Igbo's doing great business (including trading) Yoruba's should stop being naive or sophisticated and compete with Igbo's if they can , stop saying deport Igbo's from Lagos or throw them to the lagoon yet they fought to bring them Bk to Nigeria I think it's a mixture of hypocrisy and jealousy

The largest number of indigenous Nigerians in Britain and America are Yorubas. But you will never hear the British or Americans saying 'Yorubas are running away from their land to come here because there is nothing there'

are ibos the only tribe in nigeria living in Lagos,why is that Yorubas do not complain of other tribes in their land except ibos.

They shouldnt be complaining because history tells us that the same Igbos left in 1967 for their new country. It was the same Yoruba man and his Nothern friends that came down to the East to fight for three years to bring Igbos back.

ogbeni Yorubas don't travel but they have one of the highest population in UK,we don't search the globe looking for countries to sell drugs,

if you say Igbo's are running away from SE to Lagos
1) Why is it that SE has the highest population density in Africa

because Igbo landmass is small compared to their population.

2) why is it Igbo cities are 97% of Igbo indigenes

because your people are hostile to strangers,how many Nigerian do you see in iboland

[s]3) are those indigenous companies in Onitsha and Aba owned by Yoruba's (innoson and co)
4) Those Aba made ( made in China) shoes,bags,clothings are they produced by Yoruba's
another[/s]

nonsense

5) maybe those spectator in Enugu stadium where also Yoruba's .

what of the spectators watching sunshine stars akure matches,they must be IBO too

They are running to Lagos to get 2*2 shops, but why is Aba mall the largest in Africa and ariaria market the second largest in WA .

its a just market most ibos are traders how many revenues do you generate from the shanties,if the size of the market were so important then you should be generating revenue more than lagos

for the fact Igbo's dominate Alaba international market or computer village does not mean they are running away from SE , pls Yoruba's should visit Jos , calabar , pH ,kano ,Togo, Benin, Maiduguri et al and see Igbo's doing great business (including trading) Yoruba's should stop being naive or sophisticated and compete with Igbo's if they can ,

compete with yembos in gala/fanyogo sales,baby factories or drug trafficking

stop saying deport Igbo's from Lagos or throw them to the lagoon yet they fought to bring them Bk to Nigeria I think it's a mixture of hypocrisy and jealousy,

even your governors were crying when fashola deported yebeo destitutes out of Lagos state,Yorubas don't want you simple.

c go be
