Mumu. You think importing the cheapest, most substandard and most worthless assembly components and goods from China amounts to national economic importance?

You're really too dense to educate. My friend, gerrout from hia. Go and call your PHD holders to come and argue for you.

DamianX:
Pls keep telling them so they can get sense.
This is a call to Igbos to bring their investments and businesses home. Stop investing in someone else's land adding to their revenue. Check well all the large firms he talks about are owned by Igbos.

You go be land lord for another person land Dy happy

Dear Obinnaya Amadi,

Really? The Igbo generate 97% of Lagos’ industrial output? Wow! I never knew that.

Well, let’s again consider the facts. Lagos’s industrial output is largely driven by 10 firms, including, Nigerian Breweries PLC, LaFarge West African Portland Cement Plc, Nigerian Bottling Company Limited, Unilever Nigeria Plc, Nestle Nigeria PLC, Flour Mills of Nigeria, UAC Nigeria, Guinness Nigeria PLC, PZ Cussons Nigeria PLC, and the Dangote Group.

These 10 firms account for more than 50% of Lagos’s industrial output.

I would encourage you to research the ownership structure and history of these companies. With the exception of the Dangote Group, the ownership structures of these l companies are dominated by persons of Southwest origin.

So, why would you say that the Igbos control 97% of the industrial capacity of Lagos State?

Perhaps I am wrong. In that case, I invite you to demonstrate my wrongness by introducing contrary facts to these.

Thank you and may God bless you.

Except you don't live in Lagos, if you actually do, you will see the statement of this renowned bigot from what it's, most of the business and market in Lagos are owned and controlled by mostly the igbos. If you have lived in Lagos you will agree with me that when the igbos are holidays mostly during the festive period Lagos is usually scanty and business activities will be reduced to barest minimum. But the yorubas who live in Lagos knows this but continue to lie to each other.

What billions of dollars? Silly maga. You are a delusional illiterate and ignoramus.

As a contextual example, I buy my electronics from Fouani, LG's only authorised dealer in Nigeria, yet do you know how many of my frienda have horror stories buying fake and substandard products badged 'LG' from Igbos in Nigeria?

Same with generator I purchase for personal and business use. I buy from main authorized dealer in Nigeria. Whereas a friend was crying lately after buying a fake main brand from an Igbo dealer in Lekki for 160k.

He was even in greater pain when I showed him where he could have purchased the genuine item for less money.

Bottom line is that Igbos are unconscionable economic saboteurs Nigerians patronize because of poverty or 'pocket limitation'.

Yorubas operate in the most organised, most innovative and most productive sectors of economic activities, whether goods or services, that produces greatest contribution to GDP of Lagos and Nigeria. Thus is why they are the richest ethnic group in Nigeria with the biggest middle class by far.

DamianX:


It's your opinion. Which changes nothing.
For me and others na Igbo rich pass

You think petty trading, with likely above 90% tax avoidance, adds anything substantial to the GDP of any State of Nigeria or even our nation itself?

You guys are ignorant walahi.

Lol. The average Igbo is incapbable of dealing with reality. This is why they are so difficult to educate.

This has even concluded the fact that Igbo's are major playersv in the Lagos economy than any other tribe

Manufacturing: manufacturing areas like pharmaceutical, autos, food and beverages are Igbo dominated

Road transport: This is a well known fact glaring to the eyes of every Nigeria that most of the road transport company are Igbo owned, companies like
GUO
GIGM(god is good motor)
Chisco
ABC
Ifesinachi
Ekenedilichukwu
Dandalas
Ifeanyichukwu
Young shall grow etc
are leading road transport company in Nigeria and all are Igbo controlled

Construction:

Wholesale and retail: this one is not even debatable, the same buying and selling they mock Igbo's of, contributes significant percent of Lagos economy

Telecommunications: I won't go into full list but, the leading and largest telecommunications firm in Nigeria- MTN Nigeria, which two Igbo's PASCAL DOZIE and PETER ODILI own the largest Nigerian shareholders

Financial institutions: Igbo's also lead in Nigeria banking sector as they own and lead more financial institutions than any other tribe, banks like UBA, ZENITH, ACCESS, FIDELITY are all Igbo dominated banks and they have their head office's in Lagos

Real estate:

Only two sector, CONSTRUCTION and REAL ESTATE is where I don't know which tribe dominates

This has even proven the fact that over 50% of Lagos economy has huge Igbo contributions, especially wholesale and retail, road transport, financial institutions

Shaolin77:
Igbo's are big player in the manufacturing industry, you can take Aba(China of Nigeria), nnewi(Japan of Africa), and Onitsha as a good example

Talking about Lagos, Igbo's play a vital role in the manufacturing sector most especially pharmaceutical, auto's, plastic product

The top pharmaceutical industry in Lagos like orange drug, emzor,neimeth,pal pharmaceutical, juhel pharmaceutical and countless of them, infact talking about pharmaceutical in lagos and Nigeria I can tell you the fact that Igbo's control over 60 to 70% of it

Ekulo holdings is also a major player in the plastic, food and beverages sector

Autos- Igbo's have always been in the forefront of Nigeria auto sector, the first indeginous auto company (innoson) is Igbo, now in Lagos,The largest assembler of automobile product is Coscheris motor who owned more than five assembling brand and also the largest
Jaguar land rovers
Jiangsu joylong
MG brand
Renault
Ford assembling Nigeria are some of the subsidiaries of Coscheris motor

I hate Igbo nitwits who claim to own lagos. Sometimes , I feel like flogging them even though I hate violence. You own a state in south west? What is wrong with you? You better come home and help develop our own region, you are far away talking about how you own other people’s land. Idiocy at its peak. Ndi Ala.

Reno is not different from the Nairaland IPOB that have lost their senses to bigotry.

We don't need the type of Renos approval on the pacesettings achievement of the SW.

Besides his jab is a political one to pitch SW against SE so as to weaken thier political strength in order to increase Atiku his paymaster chances in the general election, just like Kperogyi is covering the religion section of the SW by stoking division among Christians and the Muslims in the SW.

We are too superior to fall into his cheap trap of deceit. We are not blinded by hate and bigotry

Clown. You think I spend all day on NL like the jobless hack you are? I run 4 different businesses so excuse me if I dont respond instantly to ignoramuses choking to death on inferiority complex and envy of the Yorubas.

Yorubas are the most successful Nigerians in manufacturing, property development, hospitiality, IT/Fintech , entertainment, visual art, architecture, service provision, professional/skilled sector, banking and finance etal. Too many to list.


Even Agriculture, bar the North and middle belt, the Yorubas are probably top in Nigeria and superior to Igbos.

Look at the list of top 10 Agriculture start-up below. 5 out of 10 Yoruba owned when we have 250 ethnic groups in Nigeria!!!!

Guy, I will have more time later to show you Igbos are nothing but liars and empty chest beaters whereas, factually, Yorubas are the real deal albeit silent and modest about their dominance over your ethnic group .

Shaolin77:
You no gets sense, we're talking the contribution to Lagos economy, your telling me agricultural startup, you see, Yoruba's are actually the empty, ignorant, noise makers with nothing to show for their claim

You listed manufacturing as one of the major contributor's to Lagos economy, now defend how the Yoruba's dominate in the field of Lagos manufacturing like I did and let's move to another sector, stop running around you've got nothing to show


Igbo's are responsible for what Lagos is today
