HOW TO SOFTLY BREAK A WILD HORSE

Things You'll Need

Softly breaking in a horse is no easy task. It takes time, dedication, patience and most of all, compassion. It is important to understand the concept of fear—if you aggravate or scare the animal, it will not respond well. Be prepared to be bucked, kicked or even bitten at first. Wild horses have an innate fight or flight response. Use compassion and connection to bridge the gap of master and beast, until the animal learns to respond positively to your presence.

We will surely break the few mustangs

Which of the major cities in SE? Where are the progressing economy and properties building..

If all those listed are there in SE, why are the people leaving the region enmass?

As you guys keep saying that Igbos are leaving the South East, it makes me realise how dumb some of you are.

Igbos are not leaving the East enmass. They are simply going to other regions that are less saturated with business to start trading. That is why they dominate the markets in many states, which is what this article is trying to portray.

Onitsha alone has 4-5 major markets. How do you think an upcoming trader will survive there? He will rather go to Taraba where there are fewer markets and less trading awareness.

Igbos are not running away from the East. From 2016 population projection, Anambra was the 10th most populous state in Nigeria and considering its small size, it had the 2nd highest population density after Lagos. Imo was the 14th most populous state also with one of the highest population density.

If Igbos are running away from the East, how come Eastern states retain a decent population despite their small size? The overall population of the South East of course will remain smaller than other regions because South East has 5 states while others have 6 and the North West 7.

Little do you know that Igbo's camouflage....
They speak any language fluently that you might mistakenly call them indigen, and lastly they mostly don't mingle with their people for some reasons..

Airport Agreed but not retail trade.
Even the Airport, SE has only Air peace and we have Ibom air or so. (so I don't fully subscribe to that)
Retail trade only add less than 15% of the economy and not only SE controls it.


Banking is not peculiar to igbos

Dailypost a Fulani paper now pressing ipob mumu buttons after arresting their son. Who says Fulani ain't smart?

They achieve 2 things with this asslicking.

1. Show Igbos they stand to lose everything if they breakup.

2. Take their eyes away from their son rotting away in a Fulani jail.

Wonderful cheesy

Yoruba are really obsessed with Igbo man,
Hausa man write something about Igbo man, Igbo man keep quiet, Yoruba man come talk say na lie. Yet Yoruba man still believe say them press Igbo man button.

I don't know of other regions.

BUT not SOUTHWEST cool

Economy is not only buying and selling of electronics, and second hand phones and parts.

For every Igbo man selling any of those in any towns SW, there are hundreds of hundreds selling similar in The same town.

I don't know why people think economy is solely based on Buying and selling of second hand clothes and spare parts.

Who controls the Music, Movies, Arts, Education, Plywoods, Techs, ICT, ceramics, Building materials, Tourism, Agriculture etc?


Lol, ECONOMICS should be a major.course to be studied in South East
So let me guess yorubas control all you mentioned? Anu

You must be joking.

From Milverton Okilo road in Igbogene to Tombia are firmly under Igbo control. Go to Otueke housing Jonathan house and the Federal University is equally firmly in the hands of igbos.

Writer of this article is biased. We, yorubas, dominate all universities in south. we control the banking sector, music, movie, aviation, tourism, manufacturing, agriculture, pharmaceuticals, we control all market in SW, SS and some part of North and middle belt. so omo igbo get your facts right.

Imagine Abuja that is owned by Gwarri's and Hausas now claiming in this report to be 70% Igbo ownership. meanwhile the top richest business men in Nigeria are Northerners followed by the Southwest. we all know why they are using this statistics to give the chestbeaters a boost to their ego. the same Igbo that says the Hausas and north hates them? how come they own the north and still cry marginalization I just don't understand this people. grin[/s]

I see it must be very difficult swallowing this foody content, sorry but I hope it's not choking you too much tongue, but I can say where you typed this trash you must be living in a poverty stricken environmentally harsh area, but just try and swallow it carefully it will help. tongue

SW doesn't control movie yet highest grossing income Nollywood movies are from Yoruba people.

SW doesn't control Agriculture, Yet South West leads in Agricultural produce in The entire SOUTH.

SW doesn't control Education yet top 10 best universities, polytechnics, and tech schools More than half are based in SW and owned by Yoruba people

SW doesn't control tourism, yet none of your region generate as much tourism as Redemption camp, Living Faith Camp, Deeper life camp, synagogue camp.


I don't argue with clowns, table ur facts if you beat south west in any of the above.
I guess 2 by 2 shops generate more income and foreign investment than those above.

Clowns everywhere. Aguleri bear parlous gist everywhere.
Shut up you afonja miscreant. The only thing SW control is fake Church hungry extortionists called Pastors who have no means of livelihood. Oh I forgot to mention their ever booming skull mining and babalawo ritual killing which they're scamming unsuspecting victims. SW economy is skull mining grin grin grin

I discovered the same in Azare in far far away Bauchi. That was way back in 1988!
I stayed many years in Abia, precisely Aba. My brother from the East who I still love till date should know how hard it’s to get even a plot of land to buy if you are not an indigene. Even for the indigene, you know what you will go through to secure a land! But we love them. The likes of Kanu who never really stayed long at home are the problems with their warped perspectives of Nigeria. Nigeria had been there now for only 60 something years as a Nation. That’s just a dot in the time space of a Nation. Buhari that you all hate will soon finish his tenure and if not for the way self determination agitation is being pursued, sooner or later the people from East could also be given the opportunity to control the country. I dare to mention that even in America where there was similar agitation which unfortunately led to war there. It took almost hundred years to produce a President from the anti-federalist Zone. History is there.

So what's your point?

You are a liar. The report is correct. You are talking out of ignorance. The IBOs control 60% of the business in Lagos . From Ijora to mile 2, from Oshodi to mile 2, from Olodi Apapa / Coconut to mile 2 , from mile 2 to Alaba International, from Alaba to Agbara (excluding Industrial estate) and beyond, estimated 60% of the major properties and businesses belong to the IBOS. My Yoruba people are selling their ancestral lands and houses including their ancestors graves to the IBOS. They claim to excavate the bones of the dead ancestors to another place. When they spend the money, they return back to bus stops as area boys. Our women are selling sachets alcoholic drinks at bus stops and street corners combined with prostitution.
Chai. This is too much on afonjas abeg. Yoruba ladies are the sweetest to make love to despite their flaws grin

Listen to yourself. Is it possible for the Igbo man to enter your town and only repair phones? Instead they come to your town and do that which you have been unable to do.

Do you even think those ingrate understand what economy is all about? Hawking and selling as now turn to dominating of major economy of a state. Like I. Oyo state especially in Ibadan I don't know where and what they are dominating. It is a normal thing for a tribe living outside their normal environment to settle in one particular area to trade and live ,just like Hausa people settle in Nikola and Yoruba's settle Nasarawu in go be and some other part. A popular called iso part was dominated by Yoruba in Ibadan. We have hairdresser s,barbing saloon,carpenters, tailor etc dominating by Yoruba's not to talk of industries owned by Yoruba like yanetti floor mills,pure water industries, bakery,schools, hospitals,event centers like Bogor etc. They are only looking to be relevant after capturing their hero like a GOAT and put inside a box to Nigeria.
