How much money is made there daily?
This idea of "big market" is outdated
No one talks of biggest market today
There are different types of markets. There is petrol market Recharge card market Cement and building materials market The Nigerian Stock Exchange is the biggest market in Nigeria Amazon is probably the biggest market on earth In terms of sales whether it is foodstuff, livestock cars, trucks, provisions the biggest markets are ALL in Lagos State That is where the population is , the wealth is and whatever little manufacturing we have in Nigeria
people come to Lagos to buy "provisions" to sell in Aba FACT
There is no market in Aba that makes more money than Balogun Market
lol..is balogun market one of the biggest in west africa?
BigBrother54321: All those companies you are claiming and your people are falling over themselves to get jobs in Lagos & Abuja. You don’t know nothing! If you knew, you’d never say access to waterways is not important. You’re but a dunce...
All these glory the SE have and every end of the year the highways are filled with you all running back home to the SE to spend money you made from other areas & running away after to make more money.
Alot of your people live in one room apartments in other areas but own houses in the village but would never stay there. They’re not bastards, they know the SE has nothing to offer hence they move.
It is only fools like you, with zero level and zero net worth that thinks otherwise. Even your MNK did not cut his teeth in the SE, infact he doesn’t even live there. Sunday Igboho lives in the SW, Shekau lived in North, Tompolo & Asari SS
But mumu Kanu is a london bobo...you are here foaming in the mouth. Sha no enter PH, Wike has directed, na gbola you go hear and its off with your head. Onye Ojor
tell us your pain is it by force to live with you people..lol..you have no argument here you are just ranting,we are igbos and you are nobody even in nigeria who know your tribe?lol
SouthernSide: I told you Big Brother will be watching you and you have been found guilty of incitement

Zooposki: I was just reading up on your foolishness and chuckling in a thread you created about having access to the sea via building a seaport or dredging River Niger, and here you are.
yes and what are you going to do about it,you are nobodies in nigeria africa and the world,if we cant dredge,we use our igbo speaking part in delta with sea access and if we cant we build an island like china did,look you people cant hold us down we are igbos,we have lots of options and state your tribe dont hide behind niger delta
Christistruth00: The Biafran Army Slaughtered all the Hausas they could Lay their hands on in the Midwest and it didn’t end there
During the Biafran Soldiers withdrawal from Ore every non Igbo along their route between Ore in the Western Region and Agbor was shot dead, a distance of more than 200 km.
Both sides of the road were full of dead bodies,
When the Biafran Army reached Agbor there was another Massacre every non Igbo they could find in Agbor Town was killed.
Gen Gowon prevented the full details from being published in the interest of reconciliation and One Nigeria
Obi Ebbi who was a Biafran Soldier confessed they did it in order to prevent information on their Biafran Army’s Movement from being passed to the Federal Soldiers who were in Pursuit behind them
There is a Photograph of the road with dead bodies on both Sides of it for as far as the eye can see , I think it Was Peter Obe a Newspaper Photographer that took it.
The report of the Justice Omo Eboh Panels investigation into the atrocities committed during the Biafrans Army’s Invasion of the MidWest was said to have filled more that twenty boxes
2 ). Enough Of This Biafran Nonsense!!! By alabo abiye Akkio-abbey
As a Rivers man who saw the events of 1967-1970 and who was old enough to understand them, this protest in Port Harcourt is a slap on true Rivers indigenes. and the memory of ALL the Rivers men and women who were slaughtered in the pogroms and ethnic cleansing committed during the civil war by the Biafran Army. Let us remind ourselves of the TRUE facts and REAL reasons behind the secession and subsequent civil war. Ojukwu and his cohorts decided to secede from Nigeria because Gowon broke up the regions and created Rivers State among the 12 states he created. Remember the Aburi accord? Article 4 of that accord had to do with the breaking up of the regions. On the 27th of May, 1967, Gowon broke up the Regions, from the then Eastern Region and carved out Rivers, South-Eastern and East-Central states. 3 days later on 30th May, 1967 Ojukwu seceded citing the Aburi accord. ON ABURI WE STAND!! The rallying war cry of the day. How anyone who calls himself/herself a Rivers indigene support tacitly or otherwise the so-called Biafra cause when Biafra seceeded just because Rivers State was created and the Rivers people for once had a right to self rule? In the quest for a sovereign country did the Igbo majority seek, discuss with or solicit the support of the minorities in the Oil Rivers and South-East?? Where is Biafra? How do you seek for a country which was susequently named Biafra WITHOUT involving the indigenous people of Biafra? Isn't that supreme arrogance or maybe they were not included because they were meant to be wiped out later. Events proved the latter to be true. Late Chief (Dr.) Nabo Graham-Douglas who was the Attorney General of the Eastern Region was sent on compulsory leave and exiled to his home town Abonnema with orders for him to be executed. Fortunately the plans leaked and he miraculously escaped. He didn't draw the Articles of secession and only heard about Biafra from the BBC journalists who came to interview him in Abonnema. He was one of the lucky ones. The ethnic cleansing began in earnest. Our intelligentsia; top civil servants, technocrats and other able bodied men and women were rounded up and summarily executed in Enugu, Owerri, Aba, Umuahia, Degema, Buguma, Bakana, to mention but a few towns/cities. In Port Harcourt, Rainbow town and Igritta, became killing fields. the bones of those victims still lie there These atrocities were committed by the Biafran Army, against people who were supposed to be fighting the same cause with them. In a bid to wipe out the minority tribes, our towns and villages were evacuated, our men put to slave labour and later on shot (reminiscent of Nazi Germany), our women taken as sex slaves, young boys shared the same fate as the men. Bakana, Bille, Abonnema were all forcefully evacuated. Finally, when the Nigerian Army counter attacked and liberated Port Harcourt, the retreating Biafran Army, burnt Kingsway (now Supabod building), Nabo Graham-Douglas's law library (which was the best Law library in the whole of West Africa) and other land marks in the Garden city. Of what military significance were these acts?? I don't blame the misguided ill-informed people for trampling on the graves of those who were murdered by the Biafran Army, by protesting in Port Harcourt. I blame Gowon for forbidding accounts of the war being published after the war, but more importantly for not trying war criminals (like Col Ojeh of Degema) within the Biafran Army and holding them accountable for their inhuman and murderous actions during the war. 70 years after World War 2, we are still reminded on a daily basis the atrocities that the Nazi's committed. If Gowon had done what he was morally and duty bound to do, this matter of Biafra would have been put to rest once and for all. By the way, in May 1968, my uncle (my mother's younger brother) was shot in his Warri street residence in Port Harcourt, his corpse butchered, his flesh sold as Biafra meat in Mile 1 market. That same day the Nigerian Army opened up and started shelling Port Harcourt, which was ultimately liberated Are those protesting and the other supporters of "Biafra" aware of these facts?? The war has been over these past 45 years, we are forging on as a country, setting aside our ethnocentric issues. That Ex-Biafrans have been assimilated into all spheres of our society (as they should), without any punishment meted out to the war criminals among them, doesn't give anyone the right to re-write history or bring these painful memories back. ENOUGH IS ENOUGH!!!
lol..you want us to believe a WAR CRIMINAL LIKE GOWON..next
omonnakoda: When people repeat the same nonsense everyday they start believing it
In order to make claims you must have data
How much sales are made in Ariaria annually and what is your source
When the Premiership league ends we know the points , Goals for Goals against etc
Ariaria might have been biggest in 1940. Is it today?
Evidence?
I find it hard to believe for 1 simple reason
Population and transport infrastructure.
I have been to Ariaria several times . Today it is very difficult to reach because of poor transport infrastructure and flooding during the rainy season. Why would anyone from the SW go to Ariaria ? To buy what?
you dont know anything,did you even read we are talking of west africa and you are talking of south west are you alrite?this igbo hate have really clouded your thinking,stop sounding unintelligent
Techguy96: While I may not know the history very well, I have always knew there was no region as south south or Niger delta, it was the likes of saro wiwa who for some reason didn't want go join the igbos that told gowon to separate the eastern region, thereby forming a south south region know as Niger delta. Tho the people in that region has always been different from the igbos, so there were not igbos, but them n the ibgos were in thesame region. They are mainly the edo, ijaw, urhobo, itsekiri, effik, ibibo, idoma, anioma, calabari, ikwerri, illaje, edo igara, etc.
it was actually the british that told gowon to do the split and what happened to ken after fulais used him they killed him,i heard ken killed igbos during the war as well,bedheaded igbos on the streets,yes they should hiding under niger delta,ijaw and itsekiri hate each other,this was the same scam fulanis used for us...not all tribes in niger delta hate igbos just some,so they should always state their tribe..nsiba come and state your tribe in niger delta
1. If you look at the course of the Niger River you can see that its origin is outside Nigeria. That means it can be diverted by upstream countries whether partially or totally .We should pay attention to what is happening with the Nile in Ethiopia. There is no guarantee that the River will still enter Nigeria in 50-100 years. It is outside our control
2. Assuming the above does not happen. The question is looking at the over 4000km of the River. There is no geographical reason to single out Onitsha for a port. Why not Lokoja, Jebba Timbuktu etc
dude we are igbos we can build a port in our igbo speaking part in delta with sea access and we can build an island like china,look we have many options all your spanners wont stop we igbos
omonnakoda: Which s the biggest market in West Africa? How do you work that out? for me bigness has to be : How much money changes hands, daily weekly or yearly?
Do you have that data and what is the source
na wa o,have you not been living in nigeria and first what is your tribe?
Ariaria International Market The Ariaria International Market is an open-air market located in Aba, a city in Abia State SouthWestern Nigeria. The market is one of the largest markets in West Africa and nicknamed "China of Africa" because of its versatility in the making of wears and leather works
Zooposki: I’m not ikwerre. That’s what I read. There is a thread about it on Nairaland with evidence I think. Look for it. Hate the game, don’t hate the player.
lol he deny his shameless backstabbing tribe,if i were you i will do the same
BKayy: Only Hausa returned all Igbo properties. Ojukwu even fought with Lagos government to reclaim some of his father's estate. The rest were converted to Lagos government property like old Rivers state did to Igbo owned hotels which are now state owned hotels in Rivers. The only difference between Ikwerre and Yoruba style of taking over Igbo properties after the war is that many Yorubas did not support the government in their quest of converting Igbo properties to Government owned, some fought with the government over it but Ikwerre, both young and Old scrambled for the properties, Kanuri scrambled as well, especially former gardeners and gate men taking over mansions (they don't even hide this one in Maiduguri, ask anyone there) Only Hausa did not take over the properties, they only burnt some houses and shops (those that the youths got hold of) but some even took care of the rent from some of the Igbo owned houses and handed the money to Ndigbo that returned after the war (ask about this) After the war, Yorubas revoked all Igbo rights over all their properties (both land and Houses)
igbos don suffer and if you think igbos are not created by God then you must be a joker,after everything day did look at us today,one million times better than all of them,we are richer and stronger and their pain is,how did this people do it,today igbos can buy some african countries
Igboid: The Binis went house to House in Benin city pointing out Igbos in Bini who were mainly Anioma people, for Nigerian Army to massacre.
Recently a Bini man came to Enu-ani forum on Facebook to preach Midwestern republic, Enu-ani people there reminded him of how Bini Massacred them.
Secondarily, Binis led the revolt against appointment of Dr Okonkwo, an Anioma man as the military governor of the Midwest by Ojukwu after Biafran forces invaded the region. They called Okonkwo an Igbo man and saw his appointment as Igbo domination.
But today,Edo people are telling us that Anioma people are now Bini people.
yeye people nzeogu was from anioma and they called the coup igbo coup and they turn around again and say the igbos in delta state are not igbos and you begin to wonder if these people are alrite
IJOBA11: DO YOU KNOW THAT THIS THREAD WAS CREATED BY A FULANI MAN JUST TO DIVIDE SOUTHERN NIGERIA MORE
igbo problem is the enemies near us not even the fulanis that are far away,remember the yoruba proverb,na rat inside house day tell the one outside,i will say it again igbo know who you are,dont allow nobodies in nigeria belittle you,they are nobodies in nigeria and africa,we are igbos and our only competition na yorubas,the rest just hide under igbo
Zooposki: You guys just go about spreading propaganda. Go ask Azikiwe that took the land from them first and shared to his cronies. They only took back what was theirs after the war.
hide your face in shame and watch this,this is what you people did to igbos you killed them and stole their land,we have history you people cant fool us anymore
You see I am an expert on international issues like the Middle East and Europe, but because of Buhari I started to study the Fulanis right from Usman Dan Fodio, and I found a lot of interesting patterns that I have written about, I told you Fulanis are cunning and smart and hid behind the Hausa to do their evil since I was born in Nigeria we never heard of Fulanis, all we knew was Hausa after that they changed to Hausa-Fulani and after it was just Fulanis, and now all we hear of is Fulanis everywhere we don't hear of Hausa no more and if you know the history of Fulanis you would know how they stole the land from the Hausa people.
I was forced to study a little about the Niger Delta namely Ijaw and ikwerrre and in fact, I saw the video on Twitter that shows how ikewerres killed Igbos and stole their land, go watch it and again because of accusations of Ijaw people whenever we talk about the civil war they go in emotional blackmail mood and start pointing fingers at Igbos, while they were the ones that betrayed us, do you understand now, Adaka Boro joined the Fulanis to killed Igbos after Gowon released him from prison and in fact, he so good at killing Biafrans and the Fulanis loved him but at the end the same Fulanis through Col Adekunle killed him
I have seen these lies instead of saying sorry for what they did to us they keep on blackmailing us, we were the victims and not you and this brings me to the Niger delta issue we must not be deceived like the Fulanis did to us, Niger delta is not a tribe, it is a region, you see them hiding behind Niger delta, niger delta did not betray Biafra some tribes in niger delta betrayed Biafra, so please don't let the Ijaws and ikewerre hide under Niger delta we must call them out for who they are, they want to be our enemies but we already forgave them remember how we massively supported their Ijaw son Goodluck Jonathan.
Igbos have moved on and so should the Ijaws and ikewerre at least for now those are the ones history tells me betrayed Biafra and today no Niger delta Republic that they betrayed Igbos for, please stop using niger delta don't let them plays us like the Fulanis did hiding under the north, we must address them by their tribe, we can't be fooled anymore and certainly not me and remember these tribes in niger delta hate each other eg ijaw and itsekiri
plaindealer: Also, this riverport thing is ok, but in the grand scheme of things, it's of marginal consequences because the SE is not a major market, the market and the massive buying population with disposable income are in the SW which is the largest market in Sub Africa if not in the whole of Africa so where is the sense in shipping goods to the SE or SS with your ship sailing past Lagos to the SE to offload, they turn around and send the same goods back to Lagos/SW to sell?
Sane and sensible business people don't go in a circle, incur extra costs and end up losing money. Business is all about money, not emotional, sentimental or tribal pride.
Where is the sense and wisdom in that?
Over the years, sellers, manufacturers, marketers, and shippers saw the disadvantages and lack of practicality so they keep shipping directly to Lagos/SW to sell and maximize profit.
You people dwell too much on emotion and tribal sentiments..
what is this one saying the biggest market in west africa is in igbo land,so you cant build igbos a port in warri or calabar,we have to go down to south west are you high on expired milk,you see the injustice ...NEXT
engrchykae: am not a marine engr but I believe and know that in azumini,abia state,we have a link to the ocean,hence the name(back of the ocean) Our ancestors were gods. They had perfect understanding of their geography.
Are ipob terrorists slaughtering and killing ibo people and unknown gunmen killing your own people, burning down public buildings and businesses your friends?
You are killing your own people and destroying your own towns and villages, but you still managed to blame your own self-inflicted atrocities on other people?
You ipobs live in your own weird and alternate reality..
Btw, you are too late and this topic is mute and redundant because your enemies already gave you a functioning river port, first in 42 years, the same way your enemies gave you 2nd NB that you were denied for 30 years same way your enemies gave you ZIK mausoleum that was abandoned for 26 years.
Obviously, your enemies love you more than you love yourselves..
