Ichidodo, this has passed joking matter ooo! It's time you guys divest yourself and look at this issue in your best interests. This thing may not be viewed by the Lagos Yoruba lightly, as you're mistaken it. In the event of clash of interests, their brothers in the whole SW will be behind them. I tell you again – it's not in the interest of the Igbo to be SEEN working against the interest of the indigenes – to the extent that a King should lightly remind you of your positions. Remember, all these uncalled tensions in SA was started by a King who thought his people are being taken for granted.

WisdomFlakes:


Nigga pls! Which piper do you pay? Is it your petty trading, or your fake spare parts and pirated cd businesses or Okrika business that the Lagos gov't is depending on? Heck, we have our own big businesses, industries that employ thousands and contribute more to Lagos GDP than your petty trading. How many Yorubas do your petty trading at Alaba and Okrika bizness employ? Don't flatter yourself and GTFOH.

wirinet:


You are playing a dangerous game here. Land issues are emotionally explosive issues. If the Yorubas feel threatened by the increased migration of Igbos to Yoruba land, they mights use the same government machinery to destroythe economic leverage and even start reducing the igbo population by deporting them back to their states.

WisdomFlakes:


Lol. Bro, you can speak igbo in your various homes, enclaves, and to your customers for all I care (that happens everywhere in the world anyway), but as you rightly acknowledged it is what obtains in government circles and who controls the machinery of government that counts. You are always welcome in our midst, as are other ethnic groups, just that I don't get why you all have to be meddlesome and can't just stick to your trading business rather than stirring up trouble wherever you find yourselves. As if you are the only non-indigenes in Lagos.

the Kogi state he has his biggest cement factory, what value does it add to the state? ..Is the state better than any state in the SE/SS?

otr1:

Are you kidding me? Dangote that produces cement, flour, sugar, salt etc will be competing with Ibeto and Innoson? What will be the basis of their competition?
Which hole did you craw out from?
To start with, Ogun state alone is more industrialized than the whole SE combine, so I don't get your point.

Aigbofa:


Where did you study your own economics or business? Big businesses do not stay away from markets where there are only small or marginal players. If they do it is often because it is not profitable for them or there are too much risks due to instability.
There is no business in iboland strong enough to intimidate Dangote.

Aigbofa:


You are free to indulge in your little fantasies. The truth is that there is absolutely nothing done by ibos that have not been done by other Nigerians, sometimes spectacularly better.

Aigbofa:


Jealous of what? That I can't steal cars or sell containers of half kerosene, half water? And then tell everyone how I'm such a good businessman?
