no Nnewi person?

They have a lot of silent billionaires in Nnewi who made their money without any help from the FG.
Ibeto and Innoson should be on the list but they don't like 'making noise' about their billions.

So with the data, is it safe to conclude that Igbo's are the poorest among the three biggest tribes in Nigeria?

Make up your mind, is it painment or confusion that makes you in one breath call me a kid and in another breath call me a young man. Instead of you to rebut with facts and iron cast and logic bound submissions, you have resulted to ad hominem, yet hold yourself out to be smart. You are a corn for brain pretentious intellectual charlatan. I rest my quill for now.

So with all the noise ibos make about been the richest none of them could make the list. It's a big shame
Chestbeating is a decease
