Igbos are a great race, highly creative.


Imagine a tribe that lost more than 3million of its youthful population between 1967 to 1970, got their investments, houses, industries, markets, institutions bombed to ashes by British/Russian/Egyptian jet bombers during the civil war, and lost virtually everything. All their investments outside Southeast were either taken and converted by individuals and governments, all their monies in Nigerian banks got seized and taken by Nigerian government, all their population working under Nigerian government got sacked and only few lucky ones got reinstated after the war.


Yet this singular tribe rose from ashes and became a force to reckon with despite decade long federal political marginalization since the end of the civil war in 1970 whereby Southeast out of the 6 geopolitical zones of Nigeria is the only zone that was given 5 states even when Southeast have more population than Southsouth and Middlebelt.


Yet this tribe has overtaken every other tribe in every human developmental indices you can think of and you still have the shame to be measuring dick with them.


Imagine if Southwest faced what Igbos faced, I can tell you for free that Borno will be far better than the entire southwest region today.



Bro, give Igbos some kudos, Igbo erika, Igbo di too much, and you and your tribesmen know this

Igbos were even poorer then.
Living in huts.
Better thank the war and Yorubas that opened your eyes.
Lazy people give escuses.

PointZerom:
You can't change history. We know the reality on ground.

Even during the last election Igbos defeated you to the point that you hv to violently threaten them.


In wealth Igbos are number number one in Nigeria. Unless you want to remain confused.

Another confused Ipob.

PointZerom:
Mkpi, listen.
Buying and selling in yoruba land are controlled by the Igbos.

Salary jobs in Yoruba land are shared between them and Igbos.

All the major markets in yoruba land are massively dominated by the Igbos.

Yorubas are even tenants to Igbos even in Yoruba land.

The biggest mkt in west Africa is in Igbo land and 95% shops there belongs to Igbos.

If you open any business in Yoruba dominatrd area, that business will die a natural death.

lol
Rants of a chewing stick hawker.
What is being discussed here is more than you,sir.
Even Alabukun invented in 1918 still exists going as far as Europe.

Iroyin Yoruba,the first newspaper set up more than 150 years ago in Abeokuta, Nigeria,so also is Tribune,the first English language newspaper.

Wema bank that was even started in 1945 still kicking and so on.

Odua group and the group set up by SE region were competing even if they could not meet up with the hardworking Yorubas,but they still crawled until they killed it with laziness and incompetence.
Odua group is still kicking.
The list goes on and on.

For longetivity and growth,Yorubas dominate Airpeace.
Onyema is wiser than you lazy bones.
He desires growth just like Dangote that made a Yoruba man the MD.

Yorubas are tested,trusted and guaranteed.
Not their doing but The Omnipotent.

PointZerom:
Stop listening to Reno Omokri, Yorubas are far behind Igbos in wealth. Head to head you're far behind.

Yes,USA is far behind Zambia in wealth.
All the people in Zambia are billionaires.
Listen,lazy man from a lazy tribe.
Yorubas don't compete with olodo.

Who wants to compete with olodo?
You were given free hand during regionalism,you still failed,you still left your region,fleeing to Ibadan which was the most developed and progressive then.Yes,Ibadan without port that Igbos hide under to blame on their backwardness.

You were and still been given free hand abroad,you are still failing.
Name one tangible business you have abroad that can compete with the massive ones owned by Yorubas.
You have none.
Except illicit drugs.
We all have bad eggs,including Yoruba but please name one Igbo company abroad.

Yorubas have many.Do you want Yoruba to compete with you when you have nothing,you are just noise without substance?


Ok,mention one Igbo company that is up to 35 years even in Nigeria.
None,You always kill,liquidate your company due to incompetence and grave laziness.

Only Yorubas have businesses that are more than 120,100,90,80 years and still kicking.

How will a people that are doing very much better than you in business compete with you?

greatness77:
they didn't mention anybody from KUWAIT nor SINGAPORE despite that 99% of them are billionaires and millionaires 😁😁😁😁😁 IGBO AMAKA

According to your Ipob statistics.

PointZerom:
Richest man in different from richest tribe but if you want to display your stupidity you can go ahead.

The richest tribe is still the one you run to for succour,sir.
Mostly in night buses.

franchasofficia:
Yoruba man is calling someone lazy, wonderful

And a lazy Igbo man is laughing at their name

franchasofficia:
When you are done foaming in your mouth online, you will log out and face the reality.


I repeat, in virtually all states in Nigeria, after the indigenes of that place, Igbos are the next richest tribe, you can curse or abuse or insult as you like, bad mouth and insult is the way of most Yorubas.


Your parents even use insult to send you message. They use swear words to tell you to come and eat, so I am not bothered about your insult lol


And I repeat, in Nigeria, Igbos have the biggest spread of wealth more than any other tribe.



In Nigeria, the richest people are mostly politically induced wealth that always revolve around owing crude oil well, getting cheap FOREX they roundtrip to make billions, so I am not bothered about the dollar billionaire tags on Nigerians living in Nigeria.



But when you come to overall wealth spread, Igbo is the number one, if you don't like it, you can argue with yourself and abuse your father as usual no shaking

lol
Lazy people make the most noise.
Empty barrels.
We have heard this before.
It is your culture.
Biafran Army is the best in Africa...Ojukwu

Only less than 200 Yoruba soldiers defeated battalion of Biafrans at Ore.
Just a few soldiers o
Talk is indeed cheap.

PointZerom:
Which region is the poorest in Nigeria from this you'll know how Igbos operate.

Two guys from Nnewi will cancel Dangote.

And what are their names?
Or are they ghosts?

The richest Igbo man is Arthur Eze,the owner of Orantos oil and gas.
He is not worth up to $300 million.

If you Igbos have baba Ijebu that rakes in millions everyday,you will say he is a trillionaire

Akin Alabi is richer than Arthur Eze.

franchasofficia:
Evidence abound all over Nigeria bro.


In every Nigerian state you go to, after the indigenes of that state, Igbos are usually the second most successful tribe in that state and own most of the properties and solid buildings in that state after the indigenes of that state.



This alone is more than enough evidence and that is why your people call Igbos "developers".


One of your Obas once invited me through a friend and in that meeting the Oba said it that "you Igbos are agents of development in Nigeria and that is why I am inviting you people to our community to come and buy lands, I will make sure no indigene of this community rip you off and I will make sure your properties here are secured, so feel free to invite your fellow Igbo friends to come here and buy lands. Yoruba and Igbo are one, we intermarry a lot, we do business together, we live together, it is only politicians that try to divide us but they will always fail".


This was what one of your Obas told me and some friends in his palace.


I have the video, but for respect and more I will not post it

But kids and paupers amongst you prefer to come online and be making noise.



We know as e de go sha, nothing mega

This is why you continue to go backward.
You lie under what is not clear.

USA has up to 819 dollar billionaires,China has more than 400,Yoruba have 5.
Igbos have never had even 1 till date.
These are verifiable.
I can post more than 100 Yoruba naira billionaires now (it is on Nairaland here and they are verifiable.Yoruba still have some that are not verifiable because they are mostly into shady things but they are stinkingly rich) )but Igbos cannot boast of 30 known naira billionaires except just beating fake chests.
In Ibadan or Ogun state, is it Igbos that are the next successful after Yoruba?
No,Of course.
The only place,and this is because you are there in millions,is Lagos State.
Lagos is the only place in the world where you have been successful and that is because the Yorubas accommodate you and allow your business infractions.

If analysis is made of the other states,you will still find out that you are just empty barrels that make the most noise as we have seen you abroad that you are just full of powder.
No substance.

Jamiubond009:
Wey Arthur Eze?

Arthur Eze,a good man with loud followers.
He has the oldest Igbo existing business.
The others have gone.

Orch1981:
Yorubas are very wicked and jealous if you think am lying come to oshodi

lol
Is that all you have?
Your envy of the Yorubas did not start now.
Azikiwe,Achebe etc died lamenting.
You are all on the same path.
Envy can kill a whole people if they continue on that evil path..

Bestmanfornow:
Elumelu is far richer than Otedola, even Otedola know Elumelu no be in mate, Otedola flex muscle in AP with the help of Obasanjo to take over the majority shares in Ap, the flex his muscle in First bank, he wanted to try that in Transcorp, Elumelu placed him where he belong 🤣😂🤣

lol
Talk is cheap.
Tinubu is richer than Elon Musk.
Can you prove it?
No but you can say it because talk is cheap.
Everybody even the almighty western nations believe Bloomberg and Forbes only.

When Forbes recognises Elumelu as a rich man,wake me up.

Cruzmaster:
Asin. E dey pain dem real bad 😂😂😂

It is even a joyous thing for Yorubas because Yorubas run Air peace.
Put your people if they will not kill it.

naija4life247:
Anything you just started smoking, stop it.

If Wema Bank is not able to raise the new Capital base, we will get it from CBN vault. We control the vault, don't always forget this.

Wema bank will surely make it.
Yorubas have the highest number of rich people both in Nigeria and abroad.
We are the only people with dollar billionaires in Nigeria and Europe,USA.
Nigeria would have been greater than this but for the jealousy of Aguiyi Ironsi and his envious people who foisted unitary system of govt on Nigerians.

Bestmanfornow:
Keep fooling yourself, men are on low key, he tried to flex muscle with Elumelu he placed him in his position, you guys only make noise on media🤣🤣

lol
Elumelu that is not even worth up to $500M?
With all the noise he makes,he said he has spent up to $100M only all these years with the assistance of some foreign institutions.
Elumelu is a good man sha.

No Igbo man dead or alive is worth 500 million dollars.

MikoB:
South West region is big in all ramifications when it comes to Nigeria, kudos to the Omoluabis.

Nigerians are blessed.
Our leaders...

Konquest:
This is exactly what I thought too.

NO pictures of people looting the so-called truck and the pictures used on Gazzete and NL are from Northern Nigeria.

This story MUST be taken with utmost suspicion and get fact-checked. So far, it's those trolls that are all over this thread gloating over the unverified story without due diligence. There are just too many gullible and narcissistic people online who would believe anything.

It is surely a fake story without evidence.

Good news.

ijustdey:
Hardship: Residents overpower truck driver; loot rice, beans, garri branded in Tinubu’s name in Ondo

“The police should not hesitate to fish out these thieves,” Mr Adelusi said.



https://gazettengr.com/hardship-residents-overpower-truck-driver-loot-rice-beans-garri-branded-in-tinubus-name-in-ondo/

Fake story.
Where are pictures or videos of the looting?

Making up fake stories.These bloggers,ehn!

Prigidypogodo:
sweetheart nobody is stopping you dear
Infact it's even advisable so that there'll be competition.
An average Igbo trader is not scared of competition and will always figure out strategies to beat his competitors.
trust me if cement license is made public today, it'll fall to 2k or less because an average igbo man will enter the business and bring it down through competition.
An igbo man won't mind selling cost price just to retain a customer then with time start putting profits gradually to the buyer and before the buyer knows this, they're already hoodwinked with the seller.
you'll be wondering why they're patronizing only him.
some will say na juju but na strategy.
come to any igbo dominated market, there's something we call lines.
you'll see more than 100 shops selling the same thing in serial but trust me an average trader in that line has their customers and makes huge sales daily irrespective that they're all selling same thing.
till today most people don't understand how igbos pull this off.
it's not arrogance but tactics.
so sweetheart other tribes are free to enter trade but don't cry when the competition becomes stiff oo.
you wan follow igbo man compete for business?
i ga etikwa anya m anya m oo

Who wants to compete with olodo?
You were given free hand during regionalism,you still failed,you still left your region,fleeing to Ibadan which was the most developed and progressive then.Yes,Ibadan without port that Igbos hide under to blame on their backwardness.

You were and still been given free hand abroad,you are still failing.
Name one tangible business you have abroad that can compete with the massive ones owned by Yorubas.
You have none.
Except illicit drugs.
We all have bad eggs,including Yoruba but please name one Igbo company abroad.

Yorubas have many.Do you want Yoruba to compete with you when you have nothing,you are just noise without substance?


Ok,mention one Igbo company that is up to 35 years even in Nigeria.
None,You always kill,liquidate your company due to incompetence.

Only Yorubas have businesses that are more than 120,100,90,80 years and still kicking.

How will a people that are doing very much better than you in business compete with you?

lol
Igbos and their ignorance.
Their life is all about noise and no substance.
Yorubas have always been several steps above Igbos since inception and it will continue because the gap is even getting wider ni.

In recent time,it is Statisense this,Statisense that while they are seriously slipping backward.
Even in education,the North now has more professors than the SE according to the NUC.

Just a few realities show Igbos need a lot to learn from Yorubas,their seniors in business and all other endeavors.

TRUTHaDDICTED:
You should have started your argument by mentioning Egwusi in your local dialect.

Stop being ignorant.
So if you write Fufu As Fufwu or Isu As Iswu it has become an Igbo food.
See life

Raf4:
They will soon start to claim the ownership of jollof rice, ofada rice, ẹwa & dodo, moi moi, akara, aṣọ-ẹbi etc

Igbo people are a case.
Thieves claiming Egusi.
Oh my!!
I don't even know where Egusi sounds Igbo.
A complete Yoruba delicacy.

Noneroone:
https://businessday.ng/bd-weekender/article/igbo-soups-all-tribes-in-nigeria-enjoy/?amp=1

Wonders shall never end.
Igbos that started eating Egusi When they tasted it in Yorubaland are trying to claim it.
Na wah o.

Gossipninja:
The same Lagos that Imo is more built up than?

Stop yarning this nonsense.
Everybody knows that SE has scanty buildings even if a few place like tiny Onitsha is built up.
Do you even truly believe there is any place in Nigeria more built up than Lagos?
Okay,show Imo state and its built up areas,sir.

Even all 5 SE states combined are not as built up as Lagos.


This is just the Yaba Oyingbo axis of Lagos o.
Where mostly Yorubas live.
Is there any place in the SE half as built up like this?

navyseal2220:
It's only merit when a yoruba is the one employed. But when it comes you yoruba turn to employ or appoint on merit, including Tinubuu, you will appoint mostly all Yoruba. The problem with you people is you think you have sense but you don't other tribes look at you people as sick people!

I am sorry but Tinubu is just being cautious of the fact that Nigeria needs to progress fast especially in terms of economy.
If you watch what he has done,he just changed the Northernersv with South Westerners especially in very strategic areas.

Just like most people in Nigeria believe,Yorubas happen to be the best administrators and business people with a lot of resilience.

Have you ever asked yourself why Ojukwu was always seeking the guidance of Prof Aluko and making Banjo lead the Biafran war?

How many times will you post this thing?

Couldntfigurean:
Allen Onyema is not wise,Yoruba business owner will make his establishment 100% Yoruba,maybe he thinks they will like him for there
You are still an omo ibo to them
Can’t you copy what tinubu is doing in his appointments,pick and empower your tribesmen only

Nigeria is not for you

He is doing it so that his business progresses gracefully and lasts for a long time.
Dangote too also has Yoruba as his MD.
It is called merit.
