Tribalism, left untamed, will do more damage to any national hope we have left than bad leaders ever will. A disgusting thing to do undecided

But trust some people to spew bigoted comment all over the thread, while your leaders ironically team up to loot the country undecided

Bukswag:


You're completely right - celebrating even your tribe isn't tribalism. But how about celebrating just to make a condescending point that subtly mock others, it's quite common to see threads like this on NL.

Also, I am Yoruba and threads like this will otherwise be educative if not for wide-mouthed tribal lords on this platform.


A Yoruba person in a Yoruba region celebrating Yoruba businesses is not tribalism.

There is no tribalism in Nigeria..

Each tribe in Nigeria has its tribal location and region and some tribes have bigger regions than others.

so any person or people who enters a region the person is not indigenous too and starts breaking the indigenes laws and creating and causing violence will be sentenced to death and killed and there is nothing anyone from the person's tribe can do because they will be creating problems for people who are not
indigenes and are not breaking any laws or causing violence.

Some people don't even have to enter a region they can use radio or tell their people to attack and kill the indigenes of a region. e.g Nnam:di K:anu, Be:llo Bo:dejo e.t.c. should have since been sentenced to death.

You are not Yoruba. A Yoruba person will be intelligent enough to know that owning a business means you control who gets employed which means since its a Yoruba owned business most of the employees will be Yorubas and this reduces the rate of un-employment amongst Yoruba people.

It is not the job of Yorubas to provide jobs for non-Yorubas.. that is the job of non-Yoruba business owners and non-Yoruba state governments and states...

Mr Biggs is owned by UAC, the others are running on 70% franchise and 30% full ownership. According to statistics from Mc Donalds , their real money comes from the real estate side of their business because the food part of the business is a very low margin business.

The place is also owned by Yoruba, with very strategic locations , but research that I have carried out shows a well run eatery owned by an igbo man in Arena market oshodi makes more sales, revenue and profits than the place restaurant in Alfred Rewane Road near ikoyi registry.

But while the place restaurant is a fully registered business conglomerate with branding, financial records and access to huge loans to expand all over Nigeria, the business in Arena runs on 100% native intelligence without brand, registered business name, financial records and access to huge capital for expansion.

Aside that ,depleted disposable income of Nigerians cinsidering the high cost of diesel and the increase in electricity tariffs, the eateries will be approaching another end of life cycle that would need loans to renew.

I've always loved Chicken Republic right from the onset, I still patronise them till date.
But I can never forget Sweet Sensation at Alagomeji, back then in my UniLag Days.
My Afternoon meals was almost always eaten there.
I miss Sweet Sensation when it was still sensational.
Today Chicken Republic still takes the cake for me.

I love fast food. I've been eating it all my life since Mr Biggs and Tantalizers and The Roadside Mai Shayi. tongue
Underfeeding and Overfeeding may kill one first before fast food does.

cyberstarr:

All these ones you mentioned are fast food chains. Just fast food. Food hurriedly prepared that may even pose health risks. When it comes to real cooking and native cuisine, we know the tribe that leads. It's certainly not the Yorubas and their gbegiri and ewedu soup.



Tribalism has finished you people. There is no tribe that can lay claim to be being the best at real cooking (whatever that is).




It is not until you overcook your meals that you can say you have cooked a real meal. Overcooking meals removes vital nutrients. Undercooking can be a problem, but at least, the nutrients are well conserved.

Tribal bigotry have turned you into a dumbo, how does owning fast food restaurants make one control the food chain in Nigeria? Your brain didn't tell you 95% of the ingredients they used in preparing their food come from the NORTH...cut supplies from the north and watch all the fast food restaurants close shop.

The eateries business particularly in Lagos state is bleeding profusely and needs help from all angles.

Most eateries have lost thier franchise license from their foster companies because they couldn't maintain standards. The high cost of diesel, increase of electricity tariffs and low purchasing power, cutting of costs by corporate businesses who patronize them among the populace will force a lot of branches to either close down or defranchise and become an unbranded restaurant than an eatery.

I once made a post highlighting a gradual deindustrialization going on , only places like the island, lekki can sustain the transaction requirements to sustain the eateries.

I do not agree with you

If Dangote were to provide jobs mostly to Hausas, with no other tribe in his employment, would he still become the richest person in Africa? Would he be able to diversify his investments in other regions?

No business man will ever support tribalism at the cost of his wealth. No tribe should do the same too.
