Igboman, Did You Come To Bauchi With Any Land? by Afam4eva(m): 5:16pm On Jan 30, 2012
One of us wanted to sell a house he spent above 20m to develop in Bauchi. No one opted to buy it. He begged his friend who is a native of the state and who can afford it. The man came to the house, went round and offered him N500k. Our brother thought he was joking. But the Alhaji meant it. He asked our brother, did you come to Bauchi with any land? He entered his car and zoomed off. Chai!

What is your purpose for this topic? To teach a lesson, is that it?

Next time, he would have taken a loan with that house as the guarantee, if he defaults, the house will be taken over, people need to learn to do things with wisdom.
Re: Igboman, Did You Come To Bauchi With Any Land? by NegroNtns(m): 5:48pm On Jan 30, 2012

I thought being a Nigeria was enough to make his home anywhere in Nigeria . . . So you mean all that were from other part of Nigeria and yet build in Lagos are doing the wrong thing?

Another man's land?
Did he not pay for the land?
Is he not a Nigerian building on the soil of Nigeria?

I think  you don't live in Nigeria, so, you won't understand the way things are done in Nigeria.

Its a pity because the igboman built the house with the purest of intentions in what was part of his country. Nothing spoil sha. My uncle has a favourite saying in yoruba that says - "what was done yesterday can still be done tomorrow". Umunne go recover from all this loss and our home will be better for it

See no evil, you are wicked. . . very wicked!  Chei, see as that gulder dey cry. . . . i dey here my mouth dey water but i no fit touch am.  

Afam, answer Fhemmy's questions about ibos that built homes in Lagos. Does this same lesson apply to them? Or are you waiting when Yoruba start killing ibo before applying the lesson?

The same rule apply everywhere. The Nigerian government is paying lip service to the protection of properties of individual in this cesspit we love to call a country. Tomorrow when lagos indigenes go on rampage everybody will start speaking in different tongues(tongues that they've not spoken since they were born when they were busy claiming lagos boy/chick). . If you must invest outside your homeland then invest even more in your home state. A word is sufficient for the wise.

I don't believe this story, I think the Op is just trying to sensitizes people to stop moving outside Igboland but he is forgeting that people don't care. Everyone has to survive regardless of region or ethnic affiliation

Whether the story is true or false does not suffice. Are you telling me that this is not a common practice in Nigeria?

Have you invested more in enugu  than lagos ?

afam stop this propaganda you have started angry

people should be able to leave anywhere there is peace and security. people must survive

even if we are different countries today, people would still move to a region of more money.

an avaerge man does not care where he invest, so long as he is confortable , can speak the language, understands the culture. then he is fine

Yes it is common practice in Nigeria if the non indigenes behave themselves and don't push their luck

A nigerian can not just go to UK and start claiming false figures or claim political power etc of course the indigenes of the place would be angry.

If the non-indigene behave him/herself and acclimatize to the system over there and not try to force his views on the people then fine. No one cares.

I think he can still approach the Banks with Mr. Hercules idea. Atleast, that would expose him to more  than what Alhaji priced him.

So, what's happening in the north is the case of Igbos trying to claim false figures and political power. The truth still remains that one's investment is safer in ones home state. You can say whatever you want but Nigerians now know the truth.

This news is FALSE!!! Tell me the name of the owner and i swear to buy the house if it really worth that amount. I know ALL the Igbos  in Bauchi..

ALL the famous igbos operating in that state are known.  From Plaza Hotel, Obunna Royal Hotal, Ebule Auto mechanic and Eze

Jude. . . to mention but afew, are very popular and well known.

Nothing is happening in the north. Boko haram is not targetting Igbos so it is not an ethnic thing

yes it is good to invest at home but once you are in ur country, you can invest anywhere you please and it SHOULD BE SAFE SO LONG AS YOU ARE READY TO ACCLIMATIZE AND BEHAVE OURSELVES.

Yes we know the truth and I made an analogy of an igbo man in zuru villages in kebbi which is very remote but he is happy there

Hey,A Visitor is a Visitor, no matter where and how long, even on this planet earth, it's all about investing wisely, everybody is free to invest anywhere anyhow but one thing is for sure, no matter how bright and sexy the sun could get night must surely come.

Alh.  Dont sweat!!  The OP forgot that this 2012 and not 1967, where news can be quickly ascertained with speed of light. Very wrong of them to use Bauchi. cry

The news is fake or at best a  bullcrap. This is how they create insecurity back home with LIES and FALSE news.

I have always said this to anyone who cares to listen, the igbo's should not be the once to force oneness to other Nigerians and as such they should live and do their business as strangers were ever they find themselves.
I think soon they will realize that they are imposing themselves to other tribes too much that some see them as dominance hence they are and will keep being the target of all of these until they learn to be very cautious.
It is true that they get the money from the land they do their business but the fact that they pay taxes in those areas is enough and they most not forget that even if they are many in those Areas does not make those Areas their home realizing that they too are not too hospitable people too.
I know that some of them reading this will start spiting fire but the truth most be told or better still they should bear it and stop complaining
