ImperialYoruba:
We are not an ignorant race. Wealth does not need a voice to announce, it is evident in class and status. There is a reason developed countries use GDP for measure of social upliftment, and not individual wealth. They want wealth to speak for itself, rather than through individual voice. Yoruba is a civilized society and we control the highest IGR, wealth is evident in our land, no need giving it individual listing.

please tell us what southwest would have be without lagos


OR
imagine yoruba race without lagos

omofunaab:
Lol, arinze. ..

Whenever i see igbos bragging about wealth, i jst dey laugh sha.

There's a guy called kunle Soname in Ogun State, he is the owner of bet9ja, Remo stars and also the first Nigerian to own an European club.

Ogun state people no dey shout oooo. .Na only anambra people dey always use dis kind thing make mouth

simple list them not just mentioning few name
we also have great men in and out of naija

ImperialYoruba:
First, Sir Ojukwu was not the first Nigerian millionaire. If he was what would you call those who loaned him money to start business in Lagos, billionaires? Ojukwu may have been first Ibo millionaire but definitely not a Nigerian millionaire. Also being first chairman of scurity exchange does not eqaute to financial worth.

People are put in certain positions to drive policy. If the policy was to drain Iboland and bring all of you to Lagos to increase tax revenue and boost menial labour, then puttin Ojukwu as chairman of SEC to bait your relocation was a good and successful strategy.

With no doubt in Lagos of 50s, 60s and 70s,Ibos were the porters and boi boi employed for domestic and menial labour. This was kept a secret,that immigration is a good tool for upscaling Yoruba social status. Hence the name Okoro became a popular call for looking for an Ibo labourer to push laden dolly from truck garage in Iddo to distribution spots on Island. Same at Apapa port, when they call out for Okoro it means there is a menial job and Ibos are needed for the labour.

Tinubu repeated the same policy when he appointed Ibos to cabinet and Fashola did too. Its a strategy we used to enslave you.

Look around you, do you not see the outcomes? Your leaders have been hooked, forever! They must remain in Lagos and enjoy wealth or relocate home and die pauper. Its their choice.

So when you are counting your ethnic millionaires we will like to know where their source and location of the wealth is.

Like I said, you are less wealthy than Imo State but they dont have the inferiority complex noticeable amongst Anambra people for tooting horns.

Go to Kano and see Alhaji sit on mat on the floor,in dilapidated sorrounding,but go check his bank account and find the guy owns 10% of all onion export leaving out of Kano. He eats tuwo with his hands and squats to urinate but his bank is loaded and you will never han out of him .


Go see real wealth in Ibadan. Yoruba living in a house built in 1880 and passed down through the ages but his kolanut supply chain cut across four different countries Nigeria, Benin, Togo, Cote dIvoire, and in each of them are his wives and concubines, children numbering in 50 and counting, if he goes out of business Cocacola production line worldwide will take impact...he eats amala and ewedu and you will never hear him say hahn about his worth. He humbles himself and does not parade around with arrogance.

Should we talk about Adebutu (Baba Ijebu) or you want hear Eleganza story? Yorubaland is littered with them and never hear a word.


So how you take become wealtheist state, because you have red slate roof and Ibadan has red ruated metallic roof?

Boy, go siddon for corner.

Abagworo:
I've been in Owerri 4 times this 2017 and there is much money there that I'm already planning to relocate or site major hospitality establishment there. Ask the owner of Cubana which among Lagis, Abuja, PH and Owerri has the highest patronage.

the thread was open by an afonja best thing you need todo is to give answer to only mature mind and leave the rest

Doug07034780891:
Confirmation. We have always known that imo state is a horrible dead zone. Forget Abagworo's propaganda.

The only source of income in imo state is poorly unpaid civil servants, commercial se.x hawkers and armed robbery. Aside these there's nothing else happening. The wise ones are running out of the state on daily basis to Lagos, Abuja, Onitsha, Warri, PH etc..

why cant you live igbo alone for God sake.

SuperBlack:
An Igbo wrote this against An Igbo Person? Hausa man will never say this against Hausa. I'm ashamed of you.

lawani:
I DONT KNOW HOW TRUE YOUR POSITION IS ABOUT EBONYI'S IGR BEING MORE THAN OSUN'S BUT IGR IS TO DO WITH IF GOVERNMENT WANTS TO COLLECT IT OR NOT. NOT WITH GDP. LAGOS IGR MAYBE 15 TIMES THAT OF KADUNA, THAT DOES NOT MEAN LAGOS GDP IS 15 TIMES THAT OF KADUNA. IT IS TO DO WITH SERIOUSNESS OF GOVERNMENT AND LAGOS IS THE MOST SERIOUS AND LAGOS IS NOT DOING MORE THAN 10 PERCENT OF WHAT LAGOS CAN DO.

This is 2015 figures. Compare Ebonyi and Osun. Ebonyi was last. I wonder what makes people compare Ebonyi and Osun!. Ebonyi is comparable to Ekiti and Yobe!.
