These are part of the reasons Igbos will always be in the fore front of business and modernisation.
This can never happen in Igbo land all because of one useless tradition. Infact it transcends this case, in most parts of the Southwest all because of one festival or the other they shut down businesses, not minding the economic losses. Even when one Oba dies or is doing any celebration they restrict movement and all sorts to what advantage??

Come Igbo land make one Igwe die, make dem talk say market no go open, Mctheeeew!!!

Hahahahahaha.... A thief spotted

Shut that mouth of yours fool. Why did you refer to our tradition as "useless tradition"? Who question Igbos exorbitant dowry as far as marriage is concerned? We-Yorubas don't question you-Igbos cos it's your freaking tradition and nobody has any right to question Igbos over that.

If you are not happy with our tradition, pack your things and leave through the same route you came from. Arrant nonsense!

Even in western world, UK precisely, some days are traditionally observed as days off work as a result of their tradition.

Lol! Take a look at yourself, Chest-beating fool, talking about Igbos being in fore front of business and modernisation... Are you serious? Are you for real or fake? Did you just say that? Lmao!!! Let me educate you a little bit, 60% of Nigerian industrialists are Yorubas, 30% Northerners, 4% Igbos while the remaining 6% goes to Niger-deltans. And guess what, 89% of Nigeria industries are situated in South West which inform the number of your kinsmen on our streets.

Modernalisation you said! How come other Nigerians are running away from the same region you claimed to be a modernised region and business haven while your own brothers and sisters are running in thousands if not millions to South West and of course North at every passing seconds

You better beat yourself out of this chest beating rhetorics; We are tired of it. It's not flying these days

MrGerald:
Keep deceiving yourself, they situated in SW does not mean they own it, what about multinational companies? I can tell you many industries in Lagos owned by the Igbos who employ yorubas as MD (senior apprentice) maybe when you see them you think they own it, and again most indigenous industries are situated in the East, continue to remain in your enclave, anu ofia

Yoruba and fetish practices be like Siamese twins, only God knows how many human head wey go dry involded.

So, I decided to go to the market place today. To my greatest surprise, I found out that today is a market free day. This festive is being practiced once in a year, and today(13-8-2016) falls to be the day of this year's festive.

The major activity of today is, traders won't open their shops, and if anyone dares to open his/shop, passerby's would go into such shop and take goods/products for free, and the trader would have no say one such day. This act is referred to as "Du du du"(Grab Grab Grab)
